The father of the sword is Kong Jie

Chapter 225

For this upcoming battle, the savvy of the Japanese lies in the rationality of the "bait" troops sent.

The strength of an elite field brigade is no more, no less.

Relying on the superiority of artillery fire at hand, according to the danger, even if the main force of the Eighth Route Army was encircled, the Japanese army headquarters believed that this elite Japanese army brigade would be enough to last until the encirclement by all the troops of the empire, and annihilate the main force of the Eighth Route Army in one fell swoop.

Too many troops can easily cause unnecessary casualties. After all, the firepower of the Eighth Route Army is not for display.

There are too few troops, even if they stick to the danger, it is not enough to support the arrival of reinforcements.

And Kong Jie's shrewdness also lies in this.

In the past few days, Kong Jie has been thinking about how to deal with the upcoming problems of the Yamazaki Brigade.

The ultimate principle has not changed: kill the Yamazaki brigade at the least cost and achieve the greatest victory.

It is naturally impossible to directly drive the main force of the independent regiment to deal with the Yamazaki brigade.

The artillery advantage of the Yamazaki Battalion is not a joke. Too many people at this time may not be a good thing, but it will cause unnecessary casualties.

Not to mention the mobilization of your main force, there must be a reason, right?

It is a violation of discipline to mobilize the main force without the order of the superior.

Kong Jie had no way of explaining this.

Therefore, Kong Jie's final deployment is very simple, and treat him in his own way.

The devils used the Yamazaki brigade to catch the main force of the Eighth Route Army, so Kong Jie used the guards to catch the Japanese reinforcements.

A small Yamazaki Brigade, to be honest, Kong Jie may not be interested, he is more concerned about the Japanese reinforcements who are about to come to support the Yamazaki Brigade.

This is Kong Jie's favorite thing to do.

At that time, when everyone's attention will be attracted to the Yamazaki Brigade, Kong Jie's thoughts will all fall on the devils and puppet soldiers supporting the Yamazaki Brigade, that is the big head.

Let the elite guard company take advantage of Lijiapo's terrain and hold on to the danger, waiting for the main force of the Eighth Route Army to encircle the Yamazaki Brigade.

This is also the correct way to finally eliminate the Yamazaki brigade and pay the least price.

…………

Around ten in the morning.

Ye Min led the commando back.

Looking at the members of the commando standing neatly in front of him, not even injured, Kong Jie was very relieved.

"Comrades, congratulations on your success. This surprise attack on the Japanese airfield will surely become a classic case of special operations in the history of our commandos and even the Eighth Route Army."

"Okay, let's not talk nonsense, the awards for you from the brigade headquarters, headquarters, and even the headquarters of the World War II zone are still to come!"

"Right now, I don't care about your exhaustion anymore. There are still new tasks to entrust to you. How about it? Do you have the confidence to complete it?"

"Have--"

The team members responded in unison.

"Regimental Commander, you can just give the order! We haven't had a good time bombing the airport yet!"

"That's right, Commander, please give the order, we promise to complete the task."

Kong Jie nodded and said, "Okay, remember, this time you are using it as a trump card!"

Then, according to his own plan, Kong Jie made a detailed operational plan for the commando...

………………

By the afternoon of the 27th.

If it is said that when the commando blew up Mingbao Airport, all kinds of news were overwhelming.

As time passed, the news that the Japanese army's Mingbao Airport was attacked and blown up spread like a tide in all directions.

Immediately afterwards, awards from various forces to the commandos of the Eighth Route Army also came overwhelmingly.

First it was the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army. Needless to say, the boss commended the commandos and notified the three armies (this should mainly refer to the units at all levels of the [-]th Division). Finally, he said that he would make a collective contribution to the commandos.

Boss Yan in the World War II zone, no matter what he thought in his heart, the rewards came soon.

Boss Yan, who was always used to digging and searching, was even more grandiose this time, saying that he would reward the commando with five thousand oceans.

As for whether it was to mark his anti-Japanese gimmick, the other side told the Japanese that the bombing of Mingbao Airport had nothing to do with our Jinsui Army, and no one knew about it.

Even Boss Jiang, who is far away in Chongqing, sent a commendation order, although it was verbal, although Boss Jiang was very afraid and headache of the strength of the Eighth Route Army's large-scale raid recently, and even stopped. The "food and clothing expenses" of the Eighth Route Army.

But Boss Jiang has never left behind such flashy awards.

Soon, the Japanese army quickly found out that it was a team of the Eighth Route Army that attacked Mingbao Airport at night, and it was a small combat unit called the Commando from the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army.

How hateful is this small combat force?

Not only did it blow up Mingbao Airport, but it was also very insidious and cunning.

They deliberately left obvious marks on the way to evacuate.

A squadron leader of the Japanese army who was good at tracking led the hunt, but encountered five booby traps along the way, killing and injuring more than ten people.

The headquarters of the Japanese First Army in Shanxi.

After nearly a day, Lieutenant General Shinozuka Yoshio, who finally calmed down the anger in his heart, handed the information about the Independence Regiment and the Commando to Kazuki Yamamoto who was standing respectfully opposite him.

After Yamamoto browsed the intelligence documents.

Shinozuka Yoshio asked: "Yamamoto-kun, what do you think of this commando?"

Yamamoto pondered for a moment and replied: "General, now that I think about it carefully, my secret service team should have fought against this commando team from the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army several times."

"What happened?" Yamamoto asked.

Kazuki Yamamoto's face was slightly stagnant, and he replied: "The enemy is in the dark, and I am in the light. I have suffered several times in succession. First, I went to Yangcun, to the prisoner-of-war camp, to the mine, and followed all the way. Finally, I confronted on the gentle slope. Then go to Mingbao Airport in front of you.”

"What I have always wondered about is why this commando can always strike first, and it always seems to be able to predict all my actions."

"In addition, I still don't want to believe that with the backward military education of the Eighth Route Army, how can they understand the essence of special operations?"

Shinozuka Yoshio said: "I heard that your prisoner-of-war camp once lost the manual on special operations. Could it be because of this reason?"

Yamamoto said: "It's hard to speculate, but even so, this commando should not have such advanced special operations tactical thinking, which is really puzzling."

Shinozuka Yoshio said: "This has become a fact, what do you want to do?"

Yamamoto's face turned cold, his eyes full of murderous intent, "General, a smart hunter is often fatal with one blow. I will continue to wait for the opportunity until I can destroy the opponent in one fell swoop."

"As long as the commandos are destroyed in one fell swoop, without the pioneers of special operations, the so-called special operations manual is nothing more than a piece of paper!"

"Not only this commando team, but also this hateful independent group, let me destroy them together." Shinozuka Yoshio ordered.

"Hi!" Yamamoto replied, the arrogance of either Chongqing or Yan'an in the past, and I don't know when he was thrown to Java.

The appearance of the commando made Yamamoto a little uneasy.

After the conversation with Yamamoto was over, Yoshio Shinozuka felt more and more that the Eighth Route Army was a serious threat. Naturally, the original exploration plan should be put on the agenda as soon as possible. He immediately issued an order to order the Yamazaki Brigade to prepare for departure.

The Yamazaki Brigade, which received the order on the 27th, embarked on the journey in the early morning of the 28th, fully equipped.

In this way, the military operation of the commando to attack the Japanese Mingbao Airport became the catalyst for the appearance of the Yamazaki Brigade on the 28th.

If Kong Jie knew about this, he might feel emotional too.

If it was just a coincidence, Kong Jie didn't even realize that he became a part of promoting the development of history according to the process without realizing it.

In other words, if Kong Jie hadn't sent a commando to attack Mingbao Airport, would the Yamazaki Brigade not have appeared on the 28th?

Or, everything has long been according to the established script, and even the people who think they are reading the script are actually just a part of the script process?

In any case, the Yamazaki Brigade marched towards the Taihang area in the early morning of the 28th according to the news that Kong Jie had learned early in the morning.

...it was a bright and clear morning.

The sky and the earth have the precipice that should be expected at the end of October in the Three Jin Dynasties.

This year's cold snap may have come earlier, especially in the early morning, when the temperature was low. When leading the team forward, Yamazaki Zhihei, the captain of the Japanese Yamazaki Brigade, couldn't help wrapping up his coat.

The coldness around him couldn't resist the heat that was growing in his heart at this moment.

He clearly knew his mission here.

Explore the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, field hospitals, arsenals and other important military locations.

And make as much noise as possible, contain the main combat troops of the Eighth Route Army, hold on to the danger, and wait for the imperial reinforcements to encircle.

This is an absolutely dangerous journey, but Yamazaki Zhihei enjoys the thrills and excitement very much.

In the large-scale sabotage operation not long ago, the strength of the Eighth Route Army shocked the entire North China.

And now, he, Yamazaki Zhihei, will set off the prelude to the Empire of Japan's counterattack against the Eighth Route Army in the occupied area.

Danger and opportunity coexist.

If Yamazaki Zhihei can use what he has learned in his life, lead his elite brigade, go deep alone, and fight fiercely with the main force of the Eighth Route Army in Taihang, and finally unite with imperial reinforcements to wipe out the main force of the Eighth Route Army in one fell swoop, Yamazaki Zhihei will surely become famous in one battle and resound throughout North China.

The reputation of the flower of the imperial army will never fade...
