Chapter 757: Don't Be Passive, Be Active (Third Update!) )
Seeing that the regiment commander agreed, Zhong Chenggong immediately asked: "Then I will send a telegram back to Xiao Yunshan immediately, saying that the regiment headquarters agrees with their battle plan!" ”
"Wait a minute!" Wang Ping stopped the chief of staff who wanted to leave, and then analyzed.
"Their plan is too passive, if the devils are not fooled and don't chase and kill them after dark, then all their plans will fail, and there will be no way to eliminate these hundreds of devil soldiers. In my opinion, these hundreds of devils are simply fat meat delivered to the mouth, and they must be eliminated. So, their plans need to be changed! ”
"How?" Zhong Chenggong's gaze immediately shifted to the map.
"The idea of calculating is good, there is no need to change it, but we can not only fight ambushes to destroy devils, but also fight at night!"
Zhong Chenggong's brows furrowed suddenly: "Regiment leader, what if you don't fight at night, the devil plane comes?" ”
"Easy!" Wang Ping replied very quickly.
"Don't forget, Linfen North is mountainous, hilly, now is the time when the mountains are high and the forests are dense, if the battlefield is chosen in the forest, even if the devil plane comes, in the face of the forest where you can only hear gunshots but can't see people, the devil air force can only stare dryly!"
"This is a good idea!" Zhong Chenggong shouted with a sudden realization.
"There is another advantage to fighting devils during the day, the little devils are fighting in the daytime, there are planes overhead, and they dare to drill anywhere. If they were sure of which forest we were hiding, they would have no fear of killing us and destroying us! ”
"After all, in their eyes, the second battalion is a remnant of the army with heavy casualties and running out of ammunition and food!"
"However, I also want to remind them that the forest where they are hiding must not be too big, too big, even if the little devil has a plane overhead, he will not dare to enter it. After all, Linzi is the world where our Eighth Route Army fights guerrillas! ”
Wang Ping nodded in affirmation: "Chief of Staff, just call them back according to what you just meant!" ”
"Mountain warfare, guerrilla warfare, ambush warfare, cooperate with each other. We can't wait for the devils to fight, we have to learn to take the initiative and cooperate with each other, so that we can kill these devils! ”
As soon as the chief of staff rushed in at the headquarters of the Japanese army brigade in Linfen, he excitedly shouted: "General, I found it, we have found the Eighth Route Army that is active in the north of Linfen!" ”
"There are more than two hundred people left, carrying a large number of wounded, who appeared here half an hour ago and then disappeared. Not surprisingly, they must be hiding in these mountains, waiting for it to continue to move after dark! ”
"Sure they are the remnants of the Eighth Route Army that just finished fighting!" Major General Matsumoto asked rhetorically, staring at the chief of staff.
From last night to now, the news he has been hearing is how many imperial troops have been ambushed and wiped out by the Eighth Route Army.
Now, the day dawned, and the units of the Imperial Army, armed with aircraft, once again dominated the entire battlefield. Moreover, as soon as he came up, he killed a mountain artillery unit of the Eighth Route Army, and Major General Matsumoto, who rarely received a piece of good news, now has only one idea, seize this opportunity, continue to take revenge on the Eighth Route Army, and avenge the imperial army that died in battle.
"Hey, the aviation reported that when they searched here, the Eighth Route Army, which was rapidly moving, immediately carried out concealment and air defense. In addition to a large number of light and serious wounded, they also brought a lot of light and heavy weapons, they must have captured us on the battlefield, there should be no problem! ”
"It's good that there's no problem!" Major General Matsumoto's eyes quickly became hot.
Staring at the sand table in front of him, he analyzed: "The remnants of this Eighth Route Army have brought a large number of seriously wounded and light and heavy weapons, and they can only be transferred by road. As long as our aviation is staring there, they will definitely not be able to run, and this time, nothing will be said to let them run again! ”
"Order the other half of the infantry brigade operating in the north of Linfen to hurry up and rush here. This forest is not big, even if the remaining remnants of the Eighth Route Army plan to ambush us here, they are not afraid. After the troops are here, they will first surround the forest, and then they will kill it, and strive to kill the Eighth Route Army hiding in this forest before it gets dark with the cooperation of the aviation force, and completely wipe out the Eighth Route Army troops in the north of Linfen! ”
The team directly under the new 1st Regiment, the 4th Company of the 2nd Battalion, the guard platoon, and the reconnaissance squad are the remnants of the 2nd Battalion seen by the devil's plane.
After entering the forest, the commander-in-chief Li Wen gave an order to rest.
After a night of fighting, every fighter was very tired, and even more so the cadres who were highly nervous, all with a pair of dark circles under their eyes.
The next guerrilla warfare and mountain warfare that everyone needs to face will test everyone's battlefield reaction ability and physical strength the most. If there is not enough physical and mental support, the troops will definitely not be able to fight.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, when the devils were about to be killed in another hour, Wang Ping woke them up, and then an infantry squad and an infantry platoon arranged tasks, and each infantry squad arranged a member of the direct team to assist in commanding.
"Captain Li, the devil is here, the devil plus the puppet army, there must be more than eight hundred people, and he also brought a large number of heavy machine guns and mortars. As soon as they arrived outside the woods, they divided half of their forces and surrounded us outside, with heavy machine guns and mortars all set up! As soon as the reconnaissance squad leader rushed to Li Wen, he reported nervously.
"According to the original plan, let's get started." Li Wen ordered with a serious face.
Outside the forest, the Japanese commander Tahara Shaoza was holding a telescope, observing the forest in front of him over and over again.
Although the brigade commander made it clear in the order that it was daytime, there was aircraft support, and the forest was not large, so there was no problem at all in killing it.
However, at the moment when he ordered to prepare for the exit, he suddenly thought of the picture that for more than a month, these Eighth Route Army in the forest had used the hilly terrain of northern Linfen to fight guerrilla warfare with themselves, and they could only be beaten passively.
At this time, he hesitated, afraid that after entering the forest, his troops would be pressed and beaten by the guerrilla warfare of the Eighth Route Army.
At this moment, a burst of gunfire suddenly came from the other side ......of the forest.
Harada Shaozuo's brows furrowed, and he subconsciously judged: "Hide in the forest and fight the Eighth Route Army to break through!" ”
"If you break through from that direction, just cross the road, they will get into another bigger mountain, and then it will be impossible to destroy them!"
To Harada's relief, it didn't take long for the gunfire to stop in a series of explosions.
Then a signal soldier rushed over: "Sir, the Eighth Route Army wanted to break through just now, but we repelled it. Also, judging from the battlefield situation, it seems that the ammunition of the Eighth Route Army is running out! ”
Before Harada could speak, the squadron leader next to him suggested, "Sir, they must want to move to another mountain next to them!" ”
"It's still more than two hours before it gets dark, and they must want to wait until it's dark before breaking through, and then we won't be able to surround them in the woods so easily!"
"It's better to go into the woods now, and destroy them before dawn."
Harada Shaozo finally spoke, frowning and replied: "You're right, no matter how dangerous there is in the forest, we can't wait until it gets dark, after dark, there is more danger for us to destroy them!" ”
"Order the troops, go straight in. The 1st squad of the attacking force was a unit, cooperating with two platoons of puppet troops, and acted separately. Strive to wipe out the remaining Eighth Route Army in the forest! ”
"Also, order the troops surrounding the forest to strengthen the vigilance. Although the Eighth Route Army has reached the point of running out of ammunition and food, rabbits will bite people if they are in a hurry. After being cornered by us, they will definitely try their best to break through, and they must be blocked! ”
