How to deal with it?

Li Yunlong said with a narrowing of his eyes.

"Lao Tzu really wants to eat the devils in Shimen City."

"But judging by the current situation, I'm afraid it's hard to eat it."

"But, it's not without chance."

Zhao Gang's expression moved, and he hurriedly asked, "What opportunity?" ”

If it is not expected, the main force of the devils in Shimen City and Zhengding County will slip away tonight.

No matter which way the Eighth Route Army is attacked.

As long as the Eighth Route Army does not surround the main force of this devil in the Shimen City area, then it will be difficult to completely annihilate this devil.

After all, on the terrain of the North China Plain, the horses and rivers can escape from any direction.

Xing Zhiguo and Wang Dehou on the side also looked at Li Yunlong curiously.

If the main force of the devils escapes tonight, I am afraid that there will be no chance to completely annihilate and severely damage this group of devils.

Because the devils already knew the strategic goal of the Eighth Route Army, they were going to annihilate the devils.

Li Yunlong glanced at everyone, looked calm, and pointed to the map and said.

"Look."

"If the devils retreat directly in the direction of Baoding, we will definitely have no chance."

"But the devil is going to attack the troops of the Jizhong Military Region, and our opportunity will come."

"Shimen and Zhengding's devils go to attack the troops of the Jizhong Military Region, no matter what the result is, after this battle, they will definitely immediately go north to join the main force of the devils in the Baoding area."

When everyone heard this, they all nodded, and the head of the regiment was right.

Xing Zhiguo's eyes lit up slightly: "Regiment leader, do you mean that our interspersed troops moved to the south of Baoding to block the passage of the devils to the north?" ”

Li Yunlong glanced at Xing Zhiguo appreciatively, nodded and said, "That's right!" Once our interspersed troops block the devil's northward advance, our main force, as well as the main force of the Jizhong Military Region, will quickly close up, surround this devil, and eat the devil in one bite! ”

Since the equipment and strength of the Eighth Route Army have been raised, Boss Chen has made it clear that a lot of information about the battlefield will not be provided again.

lest the Eighth Route Army rely too much on intelligence.

If the Eighth Route Army relies too much on intelligence, what if there is no intelligence in the future, and the Eighth Route Army will not fight?

So.

This campaign to attack North China relied entirely on the Eighth Route Army's own strength to fight, which could also show the true strength of the Eighth Route Army and stimulate Li Yunlong's real tactical command ability.

Of course.

For Li Yunlong, it is certainly a good thing to have Boss Chen to provide information.

Without Boss Chen's information, Li Yunlong would not have the slightest complaint.

Whether there are conditions or not, Li Yunlong will kill devils.

"Makes sense!"

Zhao Gang nodded calmly:

"However, now it depends on whether the devil retreats directly in the direction of Baoding, or whether he wants to attack the troops of the Jizhong Military Region."

After a pause, Zhao Gang said again: "By the way, we still need to pay attention to one more thing, the devil has a flying division in the Shenyang area. ”

"If our interspersed troops are discovered by the devil's reconnaissance plane in the process of going north."

"Then the devil is likely to take a detour, and it will be difficult for our battle plan to work."

When a large corps fights, the battle plan often fails to keep up with the changes.

However, a qualified commander should adjust the battle plan and contingency plan at any time according to the changes of the enemy during the operation.

"Lao Zhao, you're right, the devil's reconnaissance plane is also a trouble."

Li Yunlong's eyes were thoughtful, and his brows furrowed slightly.

Unless it is a night march and concealment during the day, it is difficult for the large force of the Eighth Route Army, which is tens of thousands of troops, to avoid the reconnaissance of the devil's reconnaissance plane.

But on the North China Plain, there are not many places where tens of thousands of troops of the Eighth Route Army can hide.

The devil still doesn't know how long he will fight with the troops of the Jizhong Military Region.

"But..."

"The devil's reconnaissance plane is not without a solution."

Li Yunlong stared at the map for a while, and then changed his words and said.

"What can you do to deal with the devil's reconnaissance plane?"

Zhao Gang asked.

"As long as we capture Shimen City and Zhengding, and install radars here, the devil's reconnaissance planes flying from outside the customs will definitely be detected by our radar."

"When the time comes, we only need to dispatch fighter planes to get the devil's reconnaissance plane, and even the devil's fighter and bomber."

Although Boss Chen's radar performance is excellent, the detection radius can reach 300 kilometers.

But the radar needs electricity to turn on the operation, and it can't operate without a voltage root.

"Okay, let's do it then!"

Zhao Gang nodded, his tone was categorical, and he said that he had no opinion:

"If the devil retreats to Baoding, we will fight the devil in Baoding, if the devil dares to attack the troops of the Jizhong Military Region, then we will try to eat this devil!"

"As long as we eat this devil." Wang Dehou said, "It is of great significance and influence to the decisive battle that follows, and even to the situation of the anti-Japanese war in the whole country. ”

Although there are not many devils in this group, there is a devil A division regiment, which is currently the only A division on the battlefield in North China.

There are so many devils' armor divisions, and the elimination of one is one.

At present, the Japanese Army's A divisions that have been heavily damaged by the Eighth Route Army include the Guards Division, the 1st Division, the 10th Division, and the 9th Division, and the 5th Division of the Japanese Army has been completely annihilated.

During World War II, more than 10 Division A divisions were sent to China by the Japanese army base camp.

These devil divisions participated in the Battle of Songhu, the Jinling Massacre, the Battle of Wuhan, the Battle of Changsha and other battles.

More than 300,000 Chinese compatriots were killed in the Jinling Massacre, most of them by the devils of the First Division.

The atrocities of these devil armor divisions are outrageous.

At the end of the meeting, Li Yunlong glanced at everyone and said in a stern tone: "In a word, the large corps fights, and the military discipline must be strict!" Tell all the commanders and soldiers, if the fuck drops the chain, don't blame me Li Yunlong for turning his face and not recognizing people! ”

With the end of the meeting, the staff headquarters of the new regiment quickly adjusted the operational plan and emergency plan in accordance with the instructions of Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang.

On the one hand, the infantry of the new regiment was ordered to continue to penetrate rapidly, and after passing through Shimen City and Zhengding, they continued to penetrate northward.

On the other hand, the troops of the Jizhong Military Region were ordered to stop moving closer to Shimen City and Zhengding, and to look for favorable terrain to prepare for an encounter with the Japanese army.

Report to headquarters on the enemy situation, as well as report on adjusted operational plans and contingency plans.

Meantime.

Li Yunlong ordered the new main forces gathered at Yangquan and Niangzi Pass to immediately move towards Shimen City and Zhengding, and to capture Shimen City and Zhengding at the fastest offensive speed.

……

Shimen City.

Japanese Command.

"Ying Senjun, why did you suddenly gather troops, is the Eighth Route Army about to start a large-scale attack?"

Lieutenant General Seiichi Aoki, commander of the 40th Division, walked into the headquarters quickly, looked at Takashi Takamori and Masao Watanabe in a solemn tone and asked.

Lieutenant General Aoki Seiichi thought that the Eighth Route Army was going to start a large-scale offensive.

The 11th, 40th, and 56th Divisions were about to retreat, abandoning Shimen City and the Zhengding area.

After all, if it is a battle, it must be that the troops immediately enter the combat position and prepare to respond to the attack.

"The Eighth Route Army is about to begin a large-scale offensive."

Lieutenant General Takashi Takashi nodded when he heard this.

"Is it an order from Admiral Okamura Ninji?"

Lieutenant General Masao Watanabe, who had just arrived, was also puzzled:

"Didn't General Okamura order us to hold out for three days in Shimen City and the Zhengding area and then feign a retreat?"

Masao Watanabe had been inspecting the fortifications on the front line all day, and had just received the news and rushed back.

Regarding the order of the North China Front Command, Takashi Takashi Takamori has not yet had time to inform Masao Watanabe.

"Now things have changed."

The corner of Takashi Takashi's mouth twitched:

"The 12th Infantry Wing of our 11th Division had an encounter with the main force of the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army in the Ziyun Mountain area at the junction of Jingcheng County and Pingshan County, and all the jade was shattered."

"Nani?"

"All the jade of the 12th Infantry Wing is broken?"

Masao Watanabe and Narito Aoki are two old devils, and their faces changed together.

Even veteran infantry wings such as the 12th Infantry Wing were killed by the Eighth Route Army in the encounter.

Not to mention the 40th Division and the 56th Division, which are supplemented by a large number of new recruits.

I'm afraid it's not the opponent of the Eighth Route Army.

"That's right!"

Taking a deep breath, Lieutenant General Takamori's face softened slightly, and said:

"The 12th Infantry Wing is valuable, and they let Li Yunlong prepare to encircle and destroy our 11th Division, 40th Division, and 56th Division's strategic intentions."

Lieutenant General Takashi Takashi Takamori turned around, pointed to the map and continued:

"After the encounter between the 12th Infantry Wing and the Eighth Route Army, General Okamura sent reconnaissance planes flying the 6th Division."

"The reconnaissance planes of the 6th Division flew north of Jingcheng County, south of Jingcheng County, and dozens of kilometers east of Shimen City and Zhengding, and found that a large number of troops were surrounding Shimen City and Zhengding."

Masao Watanabe and Narito Aoki were two old devils, and their expressions suddenly froze.

His eyes froze slightly, and his expression became more and more solemn.

Once the main force of the Eighth Route Army formed an encirclement posture against the 11th Division, the 40th Division and the 56th Division, the Locust Army would be very passive.

"Eagle Sen-kun, my troops are already gathering."

Aoki Seiichi was a little impatient:

"When are we going to move towards Baoding?"

Although all divisions and regiments have been brainwashing the officers and soldiers at the grassroots level in bushido and loyalty to the locust, the morale of the Japanese soldiers has recently improved slightly.

But these lieutenant generals and division commanders are not fools, and they know very well that there is a huge gap between them and the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army.

Moreover, the Eighth Route Army came to annihilate them.

Gotta slip away.

If you slip slowly, I'm afraid that the 11th, 40th and 56th Divisions will be gone.

"Transfer? Who said we were going to go in? ”

Aoki and Watanabe were puzzled, Takashi Takamori looked solemn and said:

"General Okamura ordered our three divisions, after gathering troops, to move to the east, and after defeating the Jizhong troops of the Eighth Route Army, we will move to Baoding."

Seiichi Aoki and Masao Watanabe looked at the map.

"Compared with the main force of the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army, the Jizhong troops of the Eighth Route Army have very poor combat effectiveness and almost no heavy weapons."

Masao Watanabe analyzed:

"At the beginning, the 110th Division of the Locust Army could suppress the Eighth Route Army's Jizhong troops, and our three divisions could easily defeat the Jizhong troops of the Eighth Route Army."

"It's worthy of General Okamura." Aoki Cheng's tone was murderous, "Our 40th Division is ready to go at any time!" ”

Fighting the new 1st Regiment of the Eighth Route Army and the main force of the 129th Division, our 40th Division was submissive.

But the opponent is the Jizhong troops of the Eighth Route Army, then our 40th Division will have to strike hard!
