The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

At the Sixth Army Division Command, Kong Jiechu felt nervous after receiving the news that Gangcun Ningci might invade the base area on a large scale.

Although reason told him: the Japanese and puppet troops around the base area do not yet have the strength to wipe out the Sixth Army Division.

But the attitude put forward by the Japanese and puppet troops was not bluffing at all.

Seeing Kong Jie was startled.

A few days later, Kong Jie gradually regained his composure, and his tense nerves gradually relaxed.

Although the Japanese and puppet troops put up an offensive posture on the edge of the base area, they did not launch an attack for several days, which showed that they were really bluffing and had no idea of ​​​​attacking the Sixth Army Division for the time being.

Half a month later, Kong Jie almost forgot about it, and the phone rang suddenly in the headquarters.

"Commander..."

A staff officer put down the microphone and reported to Kong Jie.

"Urgent telegram from the Junpei front line..."

"The Japanese and puppet troops gathered on the edge of the base area suddenly made a large-scale attack...the offensive was very fierce, and there were planes to help out. They have already broken through our army's two defense lines in a row, requesting reinforcements..."

"Report to the commander..." Another staff officer put down the microphone and said to Kong Jie.

"The front line of the whole city was also attacked by the Japanese and puppet troops..."

"They are divided into three groups, each with more than 4000 little devils and more than 2000 puppet troops, equipped with a large number of tanks and artillery..."

"The offensive is fierce."

"The troops are overwhelming and have broken through our frontline positions, requesting reinforcements..."

Kong Jie was stunned by the beating, and it took him a while to react. He stared at Liu Sen and asked, "What's going on!"

"Didn't the Japanese and puppet troops gathered around us not make any movement? There was no temporary replenishment of ammunition and combat supplies, and they rushed into our base area unexpectedly..."

Liu Sen frowned and answered the question: "I don't understand either..."

"Scouting shows!"

"The Japanese and puppet troops gathered around us only have ten days of combat supplies... Could it be that they are confident that we will be wiped out within ten days?"

Speaking of this, Liu Sen himself shook his head and vetoed it.

"impossible……"

"The [-] Kwantung Army can't do anything against us."

"They only have 4 to [-] people, how could they eliminate us within ten days?"

"Or the attacking troops of the Japanese and puppet troops we saw were only on the surface, and there was a conspiracy hidden behind Neiji Okamura, preparing to give us a fatal attack at a critical moment!"

Kong Jie thought about it and said with a sullen expression, "I can't rule out this possibility..."

"Immediately send a telegram to the three garrison regiments..."

"Let them use sabotage warfare, mobile warfare, guerrilla warfare, mine warfare... at all costs to slow down the attack speed of the Japanese and puppet troops, and find out the real purpose of Gangcun Neji's sudden attack on us."

"Intelligence personnel are also in action..."

"I'm sure if Neiji Okamura has any plans to deal with us."

Liu Sen didn't take the order immediately, but had a look of doubt on his face: "Commander..."

"The original garrison regiment has been reorganized into the main brigade..."

"The three new garrison regiments stationed at Shunping have just been expanded with three main companies."

"Many recruits have just joined the army and haven't even learned how to shoot a gun."

"Is it too early to let them go to the battlefield now?"

Kong Jie's face suddenly turned pale, and he suddenly realized: "I know why the Japanese and puppet troops only sent troops to attack us now."

"Our troops have just completed expansion and have not yet been trained... The ratio of recruits in many troops far exceeds that of veterans."

"Under their drag..."

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

"But the overall combat effectiveness is not as good as before the expansion."

"Ningci Gangcun is worthy of being the commander of the North China Front Army!"

"Although it's not clear if he has other backhands... just choosing the timing of the attack is very powerful..."

Liu Sen also admired Gangcun Ningci's sophistication in his heart, but he was more worried.

The Japanese and puppet troops are in dire straits, but the three garrison regiments have just been rebuilt and have almost no combat effectiveness.

Staring at Kong Jie, he asked anxiously, "Commander..."

"How to solve this problem..."

"Why don't we just transfer the main force to join the battle..."

After hearing this, Kong Jie objected: "No..."

"Until Gangcun Ningji's hole cards are exposed, our hole cards cannot be released."

"Otherwise, this battle will be lost before it is even fought..."

"Immediately send a telegram to the three garrison regiments..."

"Immediately mobilize the veterans in the team...to form a mixed battalion each, and continue to use sabotage warfare, guerrilla warfare, and mobile warfare to slow down the attack speed of the Japanese and puppet troops, so as to reveal their true purpose."

"The entire army of the Unique Brigade is on standby..."

"The first and second regiments of the independent regiment are on standby, ready to join the battle at any time."

"Let Li Yunlong and Huang Yu hurry to the headquarters..."

…………

Dongtou Town, the first target of the Japanese Yamaguchi Regiment's invasion of the Sixth Army Division.

The regiment leader is now on the high ground to the east of the town, using binoculars to observe the surrounding terrain while issuing the latest combat orders.

"The alliance station is located in the east of the town..."

"The terrain here is the highest. When attacked, we can attack the enemy from a high position, instead of being suppressed by the enemy's firepower."

"The Royal Association Army set up camp behind us, forming an angle with the main force of the alliance, covering each other..."

"The [-] young and strong who cooperate with our actions will pass the Imperial Association Army Garrison outside..."

"Let them help us build the resident first..."

"Two circles of trenches were dug around, and machine gun positions and artillery positions were all indispensable."

"The Eight Routes may launch a counterattack against us at any time..."

"I'm going to use those trenches to cripple any Eighth Route Army that wants to attack us."

Several captains under his command still don't know about Gangcun Ningci's iron wall encirclement plan.

Seeing that the captain of the alliance did not leave after ten kilometers.

There were only three guerrillas encountered along the way, not even a main force.

This was too embarrassing for the few captains who were full of confidence to launch an attack.

They all want to continue to go deep into the Sixth Army division, encounter several main forces of the Eighth Route Army, gather and wipe them out...

Unexpectedly, the captain of Xianglian didn't leave.

Then their dream of moving forward to eliminate the main force of the Eighth Route Army will not come true.

Quickly asked: "The captain..."

"I didn't leave before noon... and let the young and strong build a defense line around the garrison... Could it be that the troops will camp here for a long time?"

The captain smiled and replied: "It's time to inform you of the sweeping plan."

"Because of insufficient troops..."

"This big raid launched by Your Excellency Commander is very different from the past!"

"In the past, we were the ones who broke into the base of the Eighth Route Army and took the initiative to find the Eighth Route Army for a decisive battle..."

"Some loopholes are often exposed in the operation, allowing the Eighth Route Army to find an opportunity to defeat us."

"This time, Your Excellency the Commander decided to do the opposite..."

"Through the siege of the iron wall, the Eighth Route Army took the initiative to find us for a decisive battle."

"The mopping-up troops waited for work, and used the temporarily built fortifications to fight the Eighth Route Army, consuming a lot of their troops..."
