Chapter 33 The five elements are uncertain, and they lose cleanly
The division commander once said, "The five elements are uncertain, and you will lose cleanly."
Understanding these five elements, including time, terrain, enemy situation, self-situation, and mission, is the foundation and key to winning a war. Among these five elements, the enemy situation and the terrain all belong to the scope of intelligence work.
The topography of Wang Village, the 772nd Regiment had already reconnoitred and understood in advance. When Huang Yourong set off, Cheng Blind also stuffed them with a simple paper map.
From entering the village to the present, the two of them have watched and listened to all directions. Not only can they fill in some vague areas on the map, but they can even mark which point is the most suitable for mounting a machine gun.
When they heard the traitor father and son say such rebellious words, the two soldiers of the Eighth Route Army who came to explore the way were eager to take out their guns on the spot to eliminate harm for the people.
But complaining and complaining, Huang Yourong and the commander of the reconnaissance company still had to be patient and continue to listen. After all, although the terrain is almost understood, the enemy situation cannot be left behind.
This time, they disguised themselves and infiltrated Wang Village to obtain information, and they had just gotten a lot of useful information from Wang Lu's mouth.
If it weren't for the other party's tiger skin, it was already certain that the approximate time for the devils to arrive in the village would be three days later, and that they would be led by a Nakasa.
This enemy will also carry heavy firepower, but unfortunately it is not clear whether it is a mortar or a Type 92 infantry gun.
After Wang Lu left, the two chatted while eating, and in just a few dozen minutes, they had already mingled with the villagers at the same table.
Even the aunt at the next table was tricked by Huang Yourong a lot, these middle-aged women deserve to be the strongest intelligence group, and they revealed a lot of Wang Taizhong's personal preferences and lace news after they were full of wine and food.
Having obtained enough information, the two warriors left the wedding banquet satisfied.
After returning to the regimental headquarters of the 772nd Regiment, Huang Yourong came to his regiment commander's room for the first time. Cheng Blind looked at the second battalion commander who was eating so much, and said with some envy:
"You kid knows that you're cool, and you don't think about your comrades at home. You didn't even bring me a roast chicken, are you embarrassed to come back empty-handed? ”
Although he knew that his head was joking, Huang Yourong still took out the meal that had been prepared a long time ago, and even had a bottle of Fenjiu. But Cheng Blind didn't start immediately, but put these things away.
Seeing the puzzled eyes of the second battalion commander, he explained:
"There's still a combat meeting to be held in a while, so let's drink this wine later. And our commissar is back, just treat him with the vegetables you brought back. ”
After reporting the specific situation of Wang Village, Huang Yourong took out the simple map and began to revise it on the spot based on what he saw and heard today.
When everything was over, the two of them came together to the command post of the regimental headquarters. Today was a little different from the past, not only were all the high-level officials present, but even the political commissars who usually don't show up much attended the meeting.
Under the circumstance that the education level and ideological consciousness of the officers and men of the army are generally limited, an outstanding political commissar has a tremendous influence and promotes the building and development of the troops, and the marching and fighting of wars.
The political commissar of the 772nd Regiment has been running around in the defense area all year round, and many things need to be handled personally. Today, as soon as he returned to the regiment headquarters from a nearby village, he was immediately pulled over to attend the meeting.
Blind Cheng first relayed some information about the situation in Wangcun, and then determined that the second battalion was in charge of this operation.
"Everyone's okay, right? Does anyone need to add anything? ”
After hearing this, the first battalion commander and the third battalion commander who were not selected looked a little unpleasant. After all, they are all veterans who have been in the army for many years, and no one wants to be a head shorter.
What's more, their 772nd Regiment encourages healthy competition, and under the condition of ensuring that it will not turn into internal friction, the three battalion commanders have no less competition in both training and fighting.
And a place like Wang Village, where all the villains are there, is simply the best choice to kill chickens and set an example. If this group of dog traitors is allowed to jump around safely and soundly for a long time, it is simply encouraging unhealthy tendencies.
In particular, the commander of the third battalion had been bullied by the village bully in the early years, and this kind of dream action could not be participated in in person, which was even more uncomfortable than killing him.
But even if there is some reluctance in my heart, there is still nothing I can do.
Who let this be Huang Yourong discovered the target first, and even the investigation work was done, not to mention that the head of his own regiment had already made a decision.
"No comment! But we'll have to discuss how to fight it. The main thing is that we don't know the specific arrangements of the devils, and the time and path are not clear. ”
Cheng Blind nodded, the formulation of this battle plan is the next arrangement.
"The time for the attack was set for the night three days later, when the devils had just arrived in Wang Village and had not yet thoroughly eaten the surrounding terrain, and there was no time to build fortifications."
"This matter can't be delayed, we have to beat the devils at one time, and let them weigh everything they do."
"Considering that this time it may be a street battle, I decided that the first battalion and the third battalion will transfer some light machine guns into the second battalion to strengthen their strength."
Speaking of this, Cheng Blind looked at the two battalion commanders who seemed to be looking forward to penetration, as long as they were not fools, they could see that they wanted to participate in the war, so he added:
"The two of you are still focusing on daily training, and the defense work cannot be lost, but you must be ready for reinforcements at any time!"
Although this sentence is of a more comforting nature, it at least gives the first battalion commander and the third battalion commander some hope.
The meeting continued, and the 772nd Regiment decided to send scouts near Wangcun. They had to figure out how many devils were stationed and how many enemies they needed before they could determine how many troops they needed.
After discussing all the details, everyone returned to their respective posts.
Although the general attack plan had been discussed, Huang Yourong still wanted to minimize the loss as much as possible. He locked himself in his room, thinking back to the image of himself eating.
There is a high probability that there is no ambush now, but as a battalion commander, he wants to avoid street battles between the soldiers and the devils.
Although Xiaori does not have any well-known achievements in this regard, it is mainly because except for a few large cities in China, there are no basic material conditions for large-scale street fighting.
Due to the extremely backward industrial base, there are few buildings with a large number of reinforced concrete structures in the city. Nowadays, the vast majority of houses are civil structures, and even cement is called ash.
The defense of civil structures is very poor, and they cannot withstand the attack of ordinary artillery shells, and even heavy machine gun fire can collapse these buildings.
For the vast number of small and medium-sized cities, the city walls less than 10 meters high are already the tallest buildings.
Because of the above reasons, there is no need for the devils to fight hand-to-hand in the streets of various war zones, this kind of behavior is completely to give up their own advantages. As long as the commander is not sick in the brain, he will not choose this.
Although there is no room to play, it does not mean that the devils do not train in street fighting.
Moreover, fighting in small areas such as streets and alleys requires great skill and physical fitness from the fighters.
Once hand-to-hand combat begins, then the 772nd Regiment is easy to go deep into the quagmire, after all, even if it is the main regiment, the physical fitness of the soldiers is still a little different from the devil.
The biggest feature of street fighting is the brutal and complex terrain. This can lead to a myriad of surprises in battle.
Due to the mixed situation between the enemy and the enemy, the danger of street fighting is extremely high. It is very likely that the traitors in Wangcun will take the initiative to help the devils in order to avoid being liquidated by the Eighth Route Army.
Thinking of this, Huang Yourong was very worried, it seemed that the only way out now was to fight more and less, but it was a foolish act to pin the hope of victory on the enemy.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration crossed his mind, and he thought of a very creative tactic.
However, because this idea was a bit fanciful and needed to be corroborated by intelligence, he sent the commander of the model worker reconnaissance company to the county town to inquire about the news.
If his idea can really be realized, then this operation can be played beautifully.
I shouldn't have a problem with this title.。。。。
