A detachment against the main forces of the 6th Field Division of the Japanese Army.

This is a game of life and death.

The law of war is like this, it is always full of changeable factors, no matter how well you plan before the war, once the battle begins, the slightest change will lead to an unoriented reversal of the final situation.

Kong Jie, Li Yunlong, and Ding Wei wanted to inflict heavy damage or even annihilate the Japanese Sixth Field Division.

In a large-scale battle, if you want to completely defeat the opponent, it is difficult to rely on small-scale attacks and attrition.

After all, a decisive confrontation is indispensable.

If Kong Jie can lead a detachment of the main force to defeat the elite main force of the 6th Division and go straight to the secret aviation base, this is to crush the opponent in the enemy's strongest field.

Under a series of chain effects, the Sixth Division was destined to collapse.

But if a team is defeated.

The main force of the Sixth Division can not only destroy the predetermined air base, but may even break through the core defense area of the detachment and destroy the foundation of the anti-Japanese revolutionary base area that the detachment has painstakingly developed over the past two years.

This is a conspiracy that Okamura and Sekimura are also planning by these old devils.

Both sides know it.

The final contest unfolded gradually.

Detachment command.

In addition to Wang Huaibao, the commander of the 4th Independent Regiment who was fighting in Zhongtiao Mountain, the other five regiment commanders were all present, Lei Dasheng, the commander of the 1st Independent Regiment, Wang Leihu, the commander of the 2nd Independent Regiment, Shen Quan, the commander of the 3rd Independent Regiment, and the commander of the 5th Independent Regiment...... The head of the sixth regiment......

Don't look at what Kong Jie said in front of Li Yunlong and Ding Wei, saying that the development of our Iron Triangle Force can be a little out of line, but it can't be too exaggerated.

It can't be that the development of a regiment is more terrifying than the scale of a division of others, right?

But in fact, Kong Jie has always made a fortune in a muffled voice, and on the surface, he pretends to be serious, but he does the same thing.

His independent regiment was originally the first to be expanded into the first independent detachment of the anti-Japanese resistance in the northwest of Shanxi Province because of the growth of its scale, coupled with the needs of the war situation and its outstanding combat achievements.

His organization is very special.

Let's say it's a regiment, it's much larger than a regimental-level combat unit, let's say it's a brigade, but it can't reach a brigade-level combat unit.

The establishment is particularly free, and the scale is completely under the control of the detachment leader Kong Jie.

A year ago, considering the needs of the form of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Kong Jie took the initiative to propose that our Eighth Route Army troops could actually implement the policy of streamlining the administration of the troops in the major base areas, so as to reduce the pressure on the base areas to support the troops, and at the same time improve the combat effectiveness and cohesion of the troops more efficiently.

But then Kong Jie realized a situation.

This point is not bad as Lao Li said, the streamlining of the administration of elite troops is forced by the helplessness of the situation of the Anti-Japanese War, and the dilemma of lack of logistics and materials in the base areas.

Once these dilemmas have been resolved.

Even if the policy of streamlining the administration of the army continues to be implemented, it will be very difficult to control the trend of increasing the number of troops.

Kong Jie deeply realized this point, so he said that the independent Fourth Regiment would open up an anti-Japanese revolutionary base area in the area of Zhongtiao Mountain and seek development.

At that time, Wang Huaibao, the head of the Fourth Independent Regiment, led the main force of more than 2,000 people.

Up to now, I remember that as early as a few months ago, Kong Jie and Wang Huaibao's headquarters had a communication.

In the communication, Wang Huaibao was also very embarrassed and said: "Old regiment leader, I'm sorry, the original team of our four regiments has increased by two or three times without paying attention, and this is still not counting the local armed forces." ”

After the great victory of the winter counteroffensive led by a detachment, the 4th Independent Regiment of the Zhongtiao Mountain side took the opportunity to develop.

At present, even Kong Jie doesn't know what kind of scale his independent fourth regiment has developed.

And the contingent under his nose is also due to the rapid economic construction of the base areas, the improvement of the level of equipment, and the improvement of the combat quality of the troops, and the scale of the troops is almost autonomous.

It's easy to understand an example.

A company of more than 100 people, light and heavy machine guns, mortars, grenades, submachine guns, American semi-automatic rifles......

With the addition of all kinds of weapons, a team of more than 100 people can't be used up at all, and even the extra weapons can only be used to press the warehouse.

So what else can be done?

I can only find a way to expand the size of the troops.

In this way, the detachment also successively reinforced the arms and equipment of the surrounding brother troops many times.

As a result, the whole team is getting farther and farther away from the original elite soldiers and simple government.

For this reason, Kong Jie, who had some headaches, specially formulated some military orders for recruiting troops, requiring that in the expansion of the main force, priority should be given to selecting local comrades from the local armed forces who have solid military attainments and a certain degree of combat experience.

In addition, there are special assessment items corresponding to entering the main combat forces, including several basic skills of infantry, shooting, bomb throwing, earthwork, explosives, and so on.

In addition, under the call of the captain of the detachment of Kong Da, a fierce military competition within the detachment was launched.

Each regiment, battalion, and even company often conducts internal military competitions, in which the companies compete in shooting, assassination, and earthwork, and conduct simulated roundabouts and interspersed combat exercises.

In the end, within a team, how exaggerated is the degree of involution?

Let's just talk about the most ordinary sentinels.

He is likely to be a good scout, and he is a skilled machine gunner when the light and heavy machine guns are placed in front of him, and he is very skilled in handling all kinds of mortars.

Seeing someone driving a car, he might wave his hand, "Comrade, change me for a meeting!" ”

When the recruits came, he could say a few words like an instructor.

Recruit assassination training is effortless.

For the local comrades, that was even more touching.

...... "Why, this time the assessment of the application for transfer to the main force failed again?" ”

"Yes, captain, I will be eliminated directly in the first shooting project!"

"What the hell is going on, how did you get rid of it?"

"Don't mention it, I was still crazy, and I think that with my marksmanship, it would be good in our district team."

The district captain nodded thoughtfully, Lao Zhang's marksmanship is indeed the number one among the comrades in the district team.

But Lao Zhang said with a depressed face: "As a result, the shooting assessment of a team of people, 200 meters fixed target, two bullets will be issued, and if you can't hit, you will leave directly."

I was a little nervous and couldn't hit the ......."

Lao Zhang is so depressed!

The district captain smiled: "Lao Zhang, if you want me to say that you don't just hang a tree, the assessment requirements of this detachment are strict, you go to other main forces, that's not the same!"

Including the 771st Regiment, the 772nd Regiment, and the newly formed Fifth Regiment, as long as you go to the level of Ling, people will definitely be happy to want you! ”

Who knew that Lao Zhang shook his head without hesitation and said: "Captain, as the old saying goes, if we want to be soldiers, we must be the best soldiers, and we must not be bad soldiers."

Who in our area doesn't know that the first anti-Japanese independent detachment in the northwest of Shanxi Province is the strongest combat force in our entire Taihang region.

Many of our local comrades have sharpened their heads and want to go in!

Since we want to enter the main force, we should enter the best main force, this time blame me for not being able to do it, I didn't pass the assessment, it's a big deal that I practice more, and I will go again next time! ”

In this regard, even the members of the old commandos of the Independent Regiment felt great pressure.

In the joking words of the deputy captain Ye Min: "If we continue to roll like this, I am afraid that our entire detachment will become special forces, comrades, if we don't work hard and strengthen special training, we will not be able to go back to the cooking class to cook, and the old squad leaders will be bored!" ”

Then roll it!

Roll hard!

In such an exaggerated involution, the scale of a team is still irrepressible and gradually growing.

The four regiments were also expanded to six regiments today.

Except for Wang Huaibao's independent four regiments, the strength of the remaining five regiments was barely suppressed at the scale of more than 3,000 people at Kong Jie's special request.

Of course, since this was under the pressure of the Japanese army's all-out sweep of the base areas, the detachment had to consider not only the offensive, but also the overall defense of the base areas.

Therefore, in the absence of reinforcements from the outside world, Kong Jie's mobile forces that could be drawn out to concentrate on the Sixth Division were far less than the total number of combatants.

Maybe not even 1/3, that is, less than 5,000 troops.

But what kind of team is the Eighth Route Army?

This has always been a gang of heroes, a team of three gangs of heroes who are united from top to bottom, and has never paid attention to fighting alone, and joint operations have long been a common occurrence in all units.

After Kong Jie reported to the headquarters on the operational plan for the destruction of the Sixth Division, the deputy commander-in-chief immediately arranged for the mobilization of troops from all walks of life, and assigned the first part of the new First Brigade, the first part of the new 10th Brigade, the mobile reinforcements in the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei base area, and the special service regiment directly under the military region to one detachment to assist in the battle plan.

With the addition of this group of troops, Kong Jie can not only defend comprehensively, but also release a large number of mobile troops to counterattack.

Concentrate on the 6th Division.

In this way, the five main regiments of one team were all free.

This is also where Kong Jie's confidence lies in the argument with the Sixth Field Division of the Japanese Army.

After the meeting officially began, Kong Jie went straight to the point: "Nonsense aside, what we are specifically discussing is how to inflict heavy damage and even annihilate the main force of the Japanese Sixth Division in our fake airfield area." ”

In this regard, several regiment commanders are full of confidence.

Wang Leihu, the head of the second regiment, took the lead in speaking out, "Old regiment leader, there's nothing to say, if the little devil dares to come, we'll beat his mother, we haven't fought any decent battles for a long time."

It has always been our internal training, competition.

But after all, they are all their own comrades, so what's so fun about always engaging in military exercises?

This time I finally looked forward to this big battle, I don't care about a few of your regiment commanders, anyway, my second regiment must take this main attack and kill him! ”

When the rest of the regiment commanders heard this, they were naturally not to be outdone, and they all said that they wanted to compete for the main attack task.

Kong Jie smiled, what he wanted to do was very simple, that is, to completely mobilize the combat enthusiasm of several regiment commanders.

As for the question of how to fight in the end, this is naturally a question for the command of the detachment.

As early as half a day ago, when discussing the final battle plan for this battle with Chief of Staff Xu Guoan and Political Commissar Li Wenjie, Kong Jie put forward his idea.

Or rather, the arrangement of practical actions.

Dong San, the head of the logistics department, was called to the headquarters by Kong Jie, and Kong Jie then muttered in Dong San's ear for a while.

Dong San's eyes became brighter, and he knew this very thoroughly.

"Please rest assured, the detachment leader, I will arrange this matter immediately!"

Kong Jie explained: "Remember, this matter must be kept secret, and in addition, I will let the Camouflage Bureau cooperate with you, this plan must be successful." ”

"Yes!"

After Dong San returned to the logistics department, he immediately explained: "Yes, aluminum powder, all kinds of processing and grinding powder, all kinds of plastic powder, wheat flour, sawdust, dyes, tea, tobacco and other powders, coal dust, in short, the more the better, and prepare the blower for me in advance."

What is it for?

You don't have to ask too much about this, in short, it is the arrangement of the detachment leader, and it will definitely be of great use when the time comes. ”

Back to the current pre-war military conference.

On the military simulation sand table, a white flag is being planted at a position located in the west of the core defense area of a detachment.

"This is the location of the secret aviation base that we deliberately exposed to the little devils, when this fake airport was built, Shi Dahu said that this airport is used to lure the enemy deep and fool the little devils, and it is very likely that an ambush will break out in this area in the future.

Therefore, the terrain around the fake airport is considered in advance.

The western part of the airfield is an open field, with the mountains on the east side, and the Japanese troops are not stupid, and they will definitely strengthen their vigilance and reconnaissance in the process of advancing.

We want to ambush the Japanese army in the open area halfway, I'm afraid it's not realistic, and it's easy to startle the snake, once the devil is alarmed in advance, and the encirclement is not formed, the little devil wants to run away We may not be able to stop it.

The initial operational arrangements of the headquarters were as follows: The main force of the 1st Regiment was hidden at the foot of the mountain on the north side of the mountain facing east of the airfield, and the main force of the 2nd Regiment was hidden in the valley on the south side, waiting for an opportunity; once the Japanese troops entered the airfield area, the 1st Regiment and the 2nd Regiment coordinated with the mobile troops to quickly detour to the back of the Japanese troops from the north and south directions, and prepared to launch a blockade.

The task is to delay the pace of the Japanese army's retreat, and not to fight the Japanese army to the death.

To buy time for the 6th and 5th regiments deployed in the rear to build blocking fortifications along the way.

As a mobile regiment, the three regiments are directly subordinate to the headquarters of the detachment, and they can reinforce the battlefields of various departments at any time.

Except for the main forces participating in the battle, the rest of the units, with the cooperation of the reinforced local comrades, have done a good job of all-round defensive work, and while launching this ambush operation against the main force of the Japanese Sixth Division, they must ensure that our entire base area is foolproof.

At the same time, all regiments are ready for air combat, and the air defense units of the detachment are all mobilized to guard against the air firepower reinforcements of the devils at any time.

After the main force of the devils retreated from the airport, we relied on the terrain along the west, set up troops in echelons, and launched layers of blockades, which was to drag the little devils to death and annihilate them ......"

After Kong Jie finished talking about his deployment, he immediately asked, "What other questions do you have?" ”

At this time, Shen Quan, the commander of the third regiment, said a little unhappily, "Old regiment leader, when our old independent regiment was just formed, my second battalion was the old team of our regiment.

I definitely have no opinion on the command and deployment you arranged this time, but you can't let us have an old main force like the Third Regiment and leave it behind as a mobile regiment, right? ”

As soon as Shen Quan's words came out, Wang Leihu, Lei Dasheng and other regiment leaders were secretly happy.

Your old Shen also has today!

Kong Jie glanced at Shen Quan, and scolded with a smile: "As far as you kid have a lot of things, after this May Day sweep of devils, we have the most fun in several regiments about the team led by you Shen Quan."

I heard that you took the nose of the main force of the devils, jumped back and forth around the Yellow River three or five times, and also took the opportunity to ambush the devils three or five times, and you were stunned to drag down one of the devils' field brigades.

Shen Quan, you kid is capable! ”

Shen Quan said with a smile: "Hehe, old regiment leader, this old saying is good, there are no weak soldiers under strong generals."

At the beginning of our Long March, four crossings of the Chishui, the enemy who was stunned cried and cried for his mother, and he couldn't prevent it, I thought that the little devils hadn't tasted it yet, and this time I naturally had to teach them a good lesson! ”

Kong Jie said: "So this time you led the troops to be called back, less than half of the main force of your three regiments, right?"

The soldiers of the three regiments have also worked hard for so many days, tossing back and forth with you, this time you will be honest, do a good job of your mobile regiment, and let the soldiers take the opportunity to rest and rest.

If you toss like this, I'm afraid you'll be tired even if you're beaten with iron. ”

Shen Quan smiled and agreed.

With this face, it is natural that he will no longer be strong.

The question is......

"Old regiment commander, there is one thing I don't understand, the strength of our five regiments is all arranged on the road of roundabout blocking and ambushing, and the battle in the airport area should have been the main attack, which team was it arranged?

You can't rely on the air to repel the devils, right? ”

At this time, Shen Quan asked the common doubts in the hearts of several regiment leaders.

Kong Jie shouted outside the door, "Ye Min." ”

"Here!"

Ye Min, the deputy chief of the assault corps directly under the detachment, trotted into the command headquarters......
