The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

Chapter 932 Ningji Gangcun: Taking advantage of your illness, I will kill you (first update)
"Do you want to inform the deputy commander and the deputy chief of staff to return to the headquarters?" Liu Sen asked suddenly.

Kong Jie shook his head: "Not for now..."

"The Independent Brigade is at a critical moment of expansion and cannot live without people..."

"Xiao Huang's special regiment is also checking for omissions and filling vacancies based on the problems that emerged during the Taiyuan raid, and it is also inseparable from people."

"It won't be too late to call them back after we find out the real purpose of Ningci in Gangcun..."

…………

Everyone at the Japanese Baoding Garrison Headquarters was surprised by the arrival of Okamura Ningji.

Although the iron wall encirclement plan has been distributed to all officers above the regiment.

But in the eyes of these little devils, although the plan is good, it is only on paper, and it has not yet come to the time for real implementation.

According to the battle plan: encircling the iron wall does not require a single army to go deep into the Eighth Route Army base area, nor does it need to fight a decisive battle with the Eighth Route Army.

Even if the Eighth Route Army in the Yizhong launches a counterattack, they are still on the defensive side, taking advantage of the terrain and firepower. It is entirely possible to consume a large number of Eighth Route Army troops through defensive warfare, and finally launch a counterattack to defeat them.

But the results achieved by the Yizhong Eighth Route Army were too scary.

The encirclement of the iron wall is still in writing, and there is no specific implementation. No one knows whether there will be accidents after the operation starts.

And the actual combat effectiveness of the Yizhong Eighth Route Army is indeed real.

Without enough troops, no matter how perfect the sweeping plan formulated by Okamura Neji was, they would not have the confidence to carry it out.

According to the conclusions of their internal discussions.

The imperial army assembled here must exceed 5 people to start the siege with an iron wall.

As a result, they didn't wait for the reinforcements, but they waited for Gangcun Ningji.

Facing Neiji Okamura, who was sitting at the main seat in the conference room, everyone talked a lot.

Some people think that Gangcun Ningci is too impulsive, and even for the sake of revenge, regardless of the inferiority of the imperial army in terms of military strength, he ventured to encircle him with an iron wall...

Some people think that Ningji Gangmura came too timely...

Although the Yizhong Eighth Route Army repeatedly defeated the imperial army, they also suffered heavy losses...

Now is the time for an iron wall encirclement...

"Your Excellency Commander..."

The deputy chief of staff who stayed in Baoding first stood up and introduced the situation to Gangcun Ningji.

"All the troops participating in the iron wall encirclement operation have all been in place."

"A total of nine reinforced alliances..."

"Each reinforced wing has a tank squadron, a mountain artillery brigade, and a cavalry brigade..."

"Advance can be attacked, retreat can be defended, and the combat effectiveness is very strong."

"The humble job also allocated two regiments of the Royal Association Army to each reinforced wing..."

"A regiment of the Imperial Association Army assists the Imperial Army in attacking the Eighth Route Army in Yizhong..."

"A regiment of the Royal Association Army guards the young men we recruited in the occupied area."

"Each attacking force can be divided into 1 young and strong."

"The imperial army won the attack target, and they began to dig trenches, set up barbed wire, and completely cut off all contact between the Eighth Route Army in Yizhong and the outside world..."

"At the same time, people were sent to gather the people in the occupied areas to live together, destroy all the original houses and villages, and cut off all communication between them and the Eighth Route Army."

Neiji Okamura asked directly: "When can they launch an attack?"

"Anytime!" The deputy chief of staff blurted out.

The head of the brigade on the side suddenly stood up and reminded: "Your Excellency, Commander..."

"You don't want to encircle the newly established Sixth Army Division of the Eighth Route Army with an iron wall right now?"

"Can't you?" Okamura Ningji asked back, frowning!

No matter how bold the brigade leader was, he did not dare to directly refute Gangcun Ningci's order, so he quickly shook his head: "Of course..."

"I just feel that the risk of attacking now is too high!"

"The Yizhong Eighth Route Army has even defeated the 5 Kwantung Army. We only have a little over [-], and the Imperial Association Army is less than [-]..."

"In case we encounter an accident during the encirclement of the iron wall, it is very likely that we will lose our wife and lose our army. Please think twice, Commander..."

"The humble official thinks that it would be best to have 5000 more imperial troops involved in the operation..."

"Together [-] Imperial Army and [-] Imperial Alliance Army, together encircle the Sixth Army Division in Yizhong with an iron wall."

Neji Gangmura was not angry, and said confidently to his subordinates who were full of worry: "Don't worry..."

"It was because of the strong fighting power of the Yizhong Eighth Route Army and our lack of troops that the headquarters decided to encircle them with an iron wall."

"I will not launch an attack rashly..."

As he spoke, he shifted his gaze back to the deputy chief of staff: "How is the expansion of the Yizhong Eighth Route Army?"

"A large number of recruits are being recruited in the base area..." the deputy chief of staff replied immediately.

"According to statistics: they have recruited more than 6000 recruits..."

"In ten days, we can recruit 5000 people."

"When these recruits replenish the troops, the two main brigades of the Sixth Army Division will be fully staffed soon..."

"The three garrison regiments can also be rebuilt."

Neiji Okamura immediately interrupted: "We will start to act in half a month!"

"Mr. Zhongtian just said that [-] imperial troops are too many."

"Nowadays, the North China Front Army is short of troops everywhere...Even if I am the commander of the North China Front Army, I can't gather 5000 people to reinforce Baoding within half a month..."

"At most, I will gather 500 people for you..."

"The next half month..."

"All participating troops formulate action plans while training, to ensure that the combat troops occupy a place, and the [-] young men under the management of the Imperial Association Army dig a place, and do not give the Eighth Route Army any opportunity."

The newly appointed commander of the Baoding garrison was very smart. He was the first to understand Gangcun's purpose of setting the attack time in half a month, and immediately flattered him: "Your Excellency, Commander, is wise."

"The Eighth Route Army in Yizhong has just completed its reorganization half a month later, and veterans are mixed with new recruits..."

"Although the total strength of the army has doubled."

"But their overall combat effectiveness has not increased..."

"Instead, it got worse because of the drag on the recruits."

"We started to encircle with an iron wall at that time..."

"The Eighth Route Army in Yizhong doesn't have any troops to counterattack..."

"By the time they draw out the old troops again, we have advanced ten or twenty kilometers to their base and are ready for defense."

"At that time, the Eighth Route Army's counter-offensive troops must be smashed into the encirclement formed by the iron wall."

Those sitting here are all battle-tested veterans.

No one knows better than they the disastrous consequences that too many recruits can have on an army.

At that time, the Yizhong Eighth Route Army had just completed its reorganization, and the proportion of recruits reached [-]%, which was definitely the time when its combat effectiveness was weakest.

Gangcun Ningci chose to launch an attack at that time, and he would definitely catch the Eighth Route Army by surprise.

This also happens to prove an old saying: While you are sick, kill you.

Gangcun Ningci did not hide his thoughts, and nodded to the commander of the Baoding garrison with a smile: "Seize the timing of the attack, and the combat pressure on the participating troops will definitely be much less."

"Wait for the Eighth Route Army in Yizhong to react, we have already established a firm foothold in their base area."

"Then slowly consume their combat potential through defensive warfare, and the final victory will definitely belong to us!"
