Chapter 347
In the combat room of the regiment headquarters, Zheng Yunshan, who rarely appears, suddenly walked in: "Captain, there is a situation in the area occupied by the Japanese!"
"I just received the information: the Japanese and puppet troops began to increase troops to the Eighth Route Army bases around us."
"The Japanese mixed brigade stationed near us gathered at least half of the brigade next to the Eighth Route Army base. More than half of the troops in the remaining half of the brigade were stationed on the blockade line to guard us. In the huge occupied area, there are less than one thousand Japanese and four or five thousand puppet troops left to defend!"
As soon as Chief of Staff Chen Zhengyu heard the news, he came over: "Captain, this is good news."
"If the Japanese occupied areas have fewer troops, then our operation teams that sneak into the occupied areas will definitely be as good as fish in water, completing the tasks at the lowest cost, and severely traitors around us."
Zhou Cheng refused to comment: "It is indeed good news for our National Salvation Army. If the Japanese army suppressed heavy troops to the Eighth Route Army, our pressure would naturally be reduced."
"But for the Eighth Route Army, this is definitely a huge bad news."
"The Eighth Route Army has only two main regiments and four or five guerrillas around us, with an independent battalion, with a total force of less than 5,000 and very poor equipment and ammunition. The Japanese army gathered three or four thousand people at one time to deal with them, and no matter what the purpose is, it will bring them huge military pressure!"
"Every time the Japanese army attacked our National Salvation Army, the Eighth Route Army would secretly send troops to attack the Japanese rear, dragging the Japanese back so that they could not attack us with peace of mind, so as to achieve the goal of supporting us."
"Now they are in trouble, we can't stand by."
Chen Zhengyu thought for a while and analyzed: "Captain, we did not stand by. The troops' next revenge will definitely relieve a lot of pressure on the Eighth Route Army."
"We have prepared seven operation teams, intending to send one to each county around to kill spies, fight traitors, and make trouble in the rear of the Japanese. When they create their momentum, the Japanese who attacked the Eighth Route Army will definitely not be able to sit still and have to distribute some of their troops to return to the occupied areas. The military pressure faced by the Eighth Route Army will naturally be reduced!"
Zhou Cheng shook his head: "You are a small fight. No matter how powerful you have created, you can't force many Japanese devils back. The little pressure you can relieve the Eighth Route Army is better than nothing."
"I think if we want to do it, we will find a way to do a big vote and completely resolve the military pressure faced by the Eighth Route Army through a big battle."
"We just said that the Japanese army dispatched half a mixed brigade to deal with the Eighth Route Army. The only puppet troops and less than a thousand Japanese devils were left in the occupied area of Noda. On average, there were only more than 100 people in each county town, and some county towns with insufficient troops were even less than 100 people."
"We only send a few operation teams to sneak into their occupied areas to cause damage, which would be a big loss."
When Chen Zhengyu heard this, his eyes began to shine: "Captain, how do you want to fight?"
"I also think this is a god-given opportunity to fight the Japanese. If I miss it, God will not forgive us!"
Chen Zhengyu is a militant who is afraid that the world will not be in chaos? Zhou Cheng knew that he would support him unconditionally as soon as he spoke. He immediately pointed to the location of Pingding County on the map and replied: "My initial idea is to fight a big battle here."
"The Japanese Punishment Guards must have received the order to assemble heavy troops to attack the Eighth Route Army. Normally, they would dispatch two reinforcement squadrons. Two guerrillas were activated in the south? They claimed to be the Eighth Route Army guerrillas? In fact, they accepted our command."
"Although they are only two guerrillas, they are very well equipped with heavy machine guns and mortars, and there are many heavy machine guns and mortars? Each guerrilla team has more than 300 people, which is about the same force as the Eighth Route Army."
"As long as they make good use of the terrain of the guerrilla zone? They have the strength to hold back the offensive forces sent by the pacification garrison."
"Before, the Japanese sent an operation team to sneak into our defense zone to burn crops? The pacification garrison suffered the greatest losses. We killed thirteen operation teams. The Japanese and puppet troops had more than 200 people in total, which was equivalent to the fact that they were directly defeated by us and lost an infantry squadron."
"Two infantry squadrons were sent to the south to deal with the guerrillas? One infantry squadron was just killed by us? A squadron garrison surrounded our blockade line, and there would be no one in the garrison. It would be nice to have a hundred Japanese left in the county."
"As for the security brigade that the Japanese are forming, one regiment has been transferred to the blockade line to deal with us, and the other regiment has not yet formed an army? Only half a regiment has the strength."
"When the Japanese army attacked the guerrillas, they would definitely transfer some puppet troops to cooperate with the operation and act as cannon fodder for them."
"We calculate based on the minimum standards for a squadron and a company? The security brigade in the county town will be transferred out of two companies, and there are a total of five companies in the city. It would be nice to have three companies left in the end."
"Less than a hundred Japanese and 300 puppet troops defended and pacified the county. I transferred the reconnaissance company? Special Service Company? Cavalry Company? Guard Company and the mortar company of the artillery battalion to pass over, and I can take down the city of Pingding in at most two hours."
"If the reconnaissance team can enter the county town in advance and lurk in, the main force will be an internal response when attacking, and I will be confident that I will take it and pacify it within an hour!"
Chen Zhengyu suddenly heard that the regiment commander was going to fight against the county seat, and was shocked on the spot.
Before the National Salvation Army could win hope, the two main battalions, one left and one right, clamped the pacification in the middle and did not dare to fight.
Now that the defense zone has become larger, fewer offensive troops have been drawn, and there will definitely be no chance to take it down.
But after listening to the leader's analysis, the excitement in his heart was simply indescribable.
He suddenly realized that after the regiment commander analyzed that the seemingly unbreakable Pingding County, it turned out to be nothing, just like a paper tiger. As long as the national rescue army dared to fight, it would definitely be broken with one stab.
Immediately supported: "Captain, I agree to fight to pacify!"
"I heard Captain Wang of the reconnaissance team say: The Japanese arsenal and grain warehouse in Pingding City are several times larger than Xiyang, and the food, weapons and ammunition stored there are definitely several times more."
"I also heard him say that after the security brigade is fully organized, the Japanese will form an artillery company and a heavy machine gun company for them, and all these heavy weapons are in the arsenal."
"If we can win the pacification, these treasures will become ours."
"And the county town is close to our defense zone. After we took the county town, we quickly organized a convoy to transport spoils. We could send all the captured areas back to the defense zone in a few hours. This is an advantage that other places have nowhere at all."
"When the Japanese retreated from the Eighth Route Army base, we have moved to an empty city.
