"Report to the regiment commander, the troops have been assembled and can set off at any time!" The chief of staff of the main force of the National Salvation Army strode to Zhou Cheng to report.

"Start off, the troops act according to the original combat plan, and strive to arrive at the edge of the base of the Unique Regiment before dawn tomorrow, and launch an attack after dawn!" The regiment commander Zhou Cheng ordered very seriously.

The Japanese devils standing behind Zhou Cheng was very shocked and completely disbelief that the troops standing in front of him turned out to be a Chinese army.

In his eyes, the state of this army was no less than that of the Imperial Army.

A team of more than 3,000 people, except for the Imperial Army, each infantry platoon is equipped with at least one crooked handle, and the infantry company also strengthens three grenade tubes. On average, each infantry company is equipped with more than 120 crooked handles, five to six crooked handles, at least three grenade tubes, and five or six submachine guns.

Such weapons configurations are far more than a fully-organized infantry squad of the Imperial Army.

On the battlefield, as long as their combat effectiveness is not bad, they can definitely suppress an infantry team of the Imperial Army to launch an attack.

The weapons configuration of the main battalion is more luxurious. In addition to three infantry companies, an enhanced machine gun company is also specially formed, equipped with four heavy machine guns, four mortars, two mountain cannons or infantry cannons!”

Such a unit can also easily crush an imperial army's reinforced infantry squadron when it goes to the battlefield.

If you fight well, you won’t be at a disadvantage against half of the infantry brigade of the Imperial Army.

What shocked and unacceptable to him the most was the artillery battalion directly under the National Salvation Legion.

It has a medium-sized mortar company, a field artillery company, two mountain artillery companies, and a rapid-fire artillery company. There are more than 30 artillery guns of various caliber, which are almost as close to the two artillery brigades of the Imperial Army.

Such a team of more than 3,000 people can not only easily crush the two infantry brigades of the Imperial Army, but will not be at a disadvantage even if they bear the Imperial Army or even one infantry brigade.

Holding such a strong army, no wonder Zhou Cheng dared to provoke the imperial army again and again at the negotiating table to increase the conditions!

After engraving the situation in front of him completely in his heart, the Major quickly chased Zhou Cheng, intending to see the combat effectiveness of the National Saving Army in the next battle.

At the front command of the Unique Regiment, a correspondent hurriedly ran in. When he saw the regiment commander and the political commissar, he reported with a anxious look on his face: "Captain, political commissar, we just got the news that the National Salvation Army suddenly dispatched more than 3,000 people to fight towards our base. All the Japanese and puppet troops stationed on the blockade line took the initiative to leave the passage and let go!"

After hearing this, the political commissar showed an angry expression: "Captain, the National Salvation Army must have reached some agreement with the Japanese, and wanted to attack our base while we broke through the railway!"

"Bang..." The regiment commander slapped the table in front of him, and then showed a very angry expression: "The national rescue army is so shameful, and they dare to take advantage of others' danger!"

"The base area is related to the life and death of our only group, and there are also a large number of unarmed people in the base area. No matter what, the National Salvation Army cannot be allowed to enter!"

"Chief of Staff, immediately order the 123rd Battalion to return to the base area. You must build a defense line on the edge of the base area before the National Salvation Army launches an attack, and block their attack at all costs!"

"The 4563 Battalions continue to use guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare to harass the Japanese and puppet troops on the railway line, and continue to break the railway. It can explode a little bit!"

In less than an hour, the National Rescue Army invaded the base area, and news that the only regiment's main force returned to the base area spread on the battlefield.

In order to ensure the safety of the base area, the regiment commander prepared to return to the base area in person to teach the national rescue army a lesson.

In the small conference room of the command center, the regiment commander was giving the final explanation to the political commissar: "Old Li, I will hand over the troops of the three battalions of the front line to you! You will only have a task these days, trying every means to numb the Japanese and puppet troops on the railway line."

"In three days, I will transfer two more battalions back to the base in the name of the regiment headquarters to further paralyze the Japanese and puppet troops. After they truly believe that we only have one battalion left before carrying out the raid mission, our counterattack opportunity will come!"

The political commissar was very confident in his task and immediately promised: "Don't worry, the leader of the regiment, this task would not hurt me. I promised to make the Japanese and puppet troops along the railway go around, drive them crazy, and have the idea of ​​killing us at all costs!"

"Compared with the mission here, I'm a little worried about your side!"

"Captain Zhou said that five Japanese devils in their team will go to the battlefield to confirm the results of the battle. Any accident may make them notice, resulting in the failure of the entire operation!"

"And we want to mobilize the Japanese and puppet troops along the railway. In addition to irritating them with guerrilla warfare, we also want to make them believe that the main force of the only regiment is indeed no longer along the railway. I think this task is also very difficult!"

The leader of the group responded exactly the same as the political commissar, and was very confident about his next task: "Don't worry, political commissar, now we can only contact Captain Zhou through the radio station, and we have not yet agreed on how to cooperate in the next specific situation."

"After returning to the base, I will try to meet with Captain Zhou and discuss the next action plan well to ensure that there are no accidents in the action!"

"As for your second worry, I've figured out a solution."

"After I lead the three main battalions back to the base, I will use the excuse of insufficient troops along the railway to draw a large number of guerrillas from the base to reinforce you."

"I will ask the guerrillas to change into the military uniforms of the main force and follow me to continue to return to the aid base to block the national rescue army. The real main force will change into the guerrilla clothes, return to the railway as a guerrilla, and lurk and standby!"

"What should I do if the heavy weapons taken away by the troops? They must be the key surveillance targets for Japanese and puppet military intelligence personnel."

"If the Japanese army felt that our artillery was still along the railway, then the Japanese and puppet troops stationed along the railway would not attack."

"But if we bring those heavy weapons to the base area, and when we fight the Japanese and puppet troops here, we don't have heavy weapons to suppress them, we will definitely not be our opponent!"

A mystery flashed on the commander's face: "The mountain man has his own tricks, don't worry, the political commissar, I have already figured out the solution, and it is being implemented now!"

The political commissar was not relieved by the leader's answer. He continued to ask, "What's the solution!"

The regiment commander did not hide it and came out on the spot: "After knowing what Captain Zhou asked us to do, I ordered the guard company to find ten carpenters in the entire regiment to send them to the artillery battalion, and asked them to use wood to copy all the artillery battalion's artillery battalion's artillery battalion's artillery battalion's artillery battalion's artillery battalion's artillery battalion."

"When we set out, all the artillery carried by the artillery battalion were made of wood, and the real artillery was hidden near the artillery battalion's base. When we return to the base, the artillery battalion will change into guerrilla clothes like the combat troops and return to the front line as a guerrilla."

"When the Japanese and puppet troops on the railway line are angry with you, I believe that there is no one of our only main forces along the railway line. I can't help but send troops to counterattack us. The hidden troops can be dispatched and killed the attacking troops with lightning speed."

"As long as we eliminate a Japanese and puppet army, the blockade line they built along the railway will be torn apart, and we can continue to break through the railway through this breakthrough and expand the results of the war."

In a train station less than fifteen kilometers away from the front enemy command of the only regiment, the Japanese and puppet army reinforcement command is located here, and the corps commander of the corps commander Okamoto is the commander of all reinforcements.

After receiving the order to defend the railway line, Okamoto was unwilling to come.

Because the military headquarters has made it too much, it is not allowed to send one soldier or one soldier to counterattack except to defend its position to the death.

It means that in the next battle, I can only hide in the position as a turtle.

No matter how the Eighth Route Army provokes and angers itself, it cannot send troops to attack. No matter how angry the Eighth Route Army is, it must be endured.

For an officer who wants to compete on the front battlefield, this order is even more painful than killing him.

But the senior official level was crushed to death, especially in the Japanese army with strict hierarchy.

The superiors' orders are absolutely impossible to disobey. Even if he is unwilling to do so, he must choose to compromise when facing the order to mobilize troops that he has already obtained.

The result was exactly the same as his judgment.

The troops were attacked several times by the Eighth Route Army as soon as they arrived at the battlefield.

Each time the opponent's troops participated in the sneak attack, they only launched an attack during the day, and there were air troops covering the sky. If it were normal, I would have sent troops out of the position.

But this time it doesn't work. The military command is like a sharp sword hanging above his head, reminding him not to send troops out of the railway line.

After two days, Colonel Okamoto was angry with the Eighth Route Army and had been angry many times. Anyway, six tea cups on the table had been dropped.

My subordinates were afraid of angering him and burning him to death, so they were careful no matter what they did.

The most terrifying ones were the communications soldiers and communications consultants.

For two days, the content of their reports was similar every time. Either a section of the railway was attacked by the Eighth Route Army, or which unit got two shells of the Eighth Route Army... The captain of the corps was angry and heard that his subordinates had casualties in the Eighth Route Army's sneak attack, and he could not send troops to counterattack, so he could only retreat and vent his anger on them.

As a result, every communications staff officer in the command center was scolded at least twice.

"Report to the Chief, we just received an emergency information!" The communications officer appeared again in front of the wing captain.

Compared with the previous state, the communications consultant seems to be much more calm this time.

Colonel Okamoto did not look at the expression on his subordinates' faces, and cursed without waiting for the communications officer to finish his words.

"Bageya Road, is it another unit that was attacked by the Eighth Route Army?"

The communications officer realized that he was going to be scolded again and quickly explained: "No, sir, this information is good news!"

"We are lurking in the Unique Regiment's intelligence officer just reported: Because the National Salvation Army's heavy troops invaded the Unique Regiment's base, the Unique Regiment Commander personally led the three main battalions and artillery battalions back to the aid base!"

"The troops have set out for more than three hours, and the mountain cannons and infantry cannons equipped by the only artillery battalion were also taken away!"

Colonel Okamoto was stunned for a moment after hearing this. After a while, he realized it and asked with disbelief: "What did you say just now? Say it again?"

"We lurked in the Unique Regiment's intelligence personnel reported that the Unique Regiment's main force returned to the base area, with only three new battalions left along the railway, and all the heavy weapons were brought back to the base area!"

"I'll leave now!" Colonel Okamoto didn't know whether he should be happy or sad.

The departure of the only regiment's main force means that the chance of their sneak attacks will be reduced, the casualties of the troops will be reduced, and the railway line will be saved.

It is a very happy thing, but Okamoto couldn't be happy at all.

In the past two days, he had scolded the Du Yituo hundreds or thousands of times in his heart. If the military headquarters had not given orders, he would have wanted to fight them out and fight a battle with them and decide the outcome.

Now that the only main force has run away, it means that I have a high chance to seek revenge on them. Then I have no goal to vent my anger and have no goal to vent.

The chief of staff on the side suddenly asked: "The information is sure to be true, isn't the only group conspiring with us again?"

Colonel Okamoto suddenly raised his head and looked at the communications consultant together.

He felt that the Chief of Staff’s concern was very reasonable. The Eighth Route Army was very cunning and did not force itself out of the position after two days and two nights. It is not ruled out that they deliberately released fake news that the main force returned to the base to lure themselves to attack.

If they believe it, they have the idea of ​​underestimating the enemy and taking the initiative to attack the remaining Eighth Route Army along the railway, and then they will fight to the decisive battle with them, then they will be defeated.

The communications consultant hesitated and answered some questions: "The authenticity is still being determined, but since the intelligence department dares to forward it to us, it means that they are at least 80% sure of the authenticity of the content of the telegram."

"Then let's confirm. If it is true, our next combat method will definitely be changed!"

The communications officer quickly received the order: "Nei Jung will contact the intelligence department now and let them determine the authenticity of this information."

Because the troops were in a hurry to return to the aid base and walked along the main road, the Japanese intelligence department could easily determine the traces of the three main battalions and artillery battalions of the Unique Regiment.

In less than an hour, the intelligence department's confirmation message appeared in Okamoto's hands.

"Sir, I think we can take a proper attack!" After reading the telegram, the Chief of Staff had his eyes lit up and suggested.

"We have been holding our positions in the past two days and cannot attack. In order not to be idle, I have specially studied all the information about the Unique Group."

"In the end, it came to the conclusion that although the only regiment was strong, the truly combat-capable troops were the three main battalions in the first and the three battalions in the latter were newly expanded in infantry companies. The training time was less than three months, and the combat power was far inferior to the 1, 2 and 3 battalions."

"Even their equipment is much worse than that of the 1, 2, 3 Battalion!"

"The first, second and third battalions have formed their own machine gun companies, equipped with three heavy machine guns and at least four mortars."

"The 4563 Battalions only formed their own machine gun platoons, equipped with two heavy machine guns and three grenade launchers! The light machine gun is also one-third less than the 123 Battalions!"

"Now the 123rd Battalion and the Artillery Battalion are gone, and there are three new battalions left without even a mortar. They are definitely not our opponent."

"Since the Eighth Route Army who stayed along the railway is not our opponent, I think we can take the opportunity to move."

"I have been bothered by their sneak attacks these two days. It is time to use his own way to cure others, and in turn give them a profound lesson!"
Chapter completed!
