Bright Sword: Develop alone, bring back an artillery regiment

Chapter 157 Some happy and some sad, the angry old devil Shinozuka

After listening to the brigade commander's narration, the boss said, "You mean, the independent battalion has five 5-type infantry guns, and besides that, there are more than 20 mortars of various calibers?"

Brigadier: "Yes!"

Boss: "This firepower is almost as good as an artillery battalion, right? At first I thought that Wang Chengzhu, like Li Yunlong, was a fool who dared to pierce the sky when his head was hot. Now it seems that this is not the case. .”

Brigadier: "Yes, before, from the moment Li Yunlong sent the summary report on the development of each battalion of the New First Regiment within one month to my brigade headquarters, I have been paying attention to this Wang Chengzhu.

This person is not only an expert in developing troops, but also has a very strategic vision and tactical command ability.

He is very good at seizing opportunities, making decisive moves and acting resolutely.

It seems like an adventure, but actually everything is under his control. "

"Taking today's battle as an example, even if the three main battalions of the Independent Regiment and the New Regiment could not stop the devil's reinforcements, Wang Chengzhu could still wipe out the devils on Lijiapo within the set time, and then retreat calmly without It will drag the Eighth Route Army in the entire northwestern Shanxi region into the abyss."

"Advance can be attacked, retreat can be defended, this is the subtlety of Wang Chengzhu's battle plan!"

Boss: "Well! Hearing what you said, this Wang Chengzhu is indeed a rare talent."

After a pause, the boss seemed to think of something, and then he continued, "By the way, how is Wang Chengzhu's ideological awareness?"

Brigadier: "According to my investigation, it can be confirmed that his ideological consciousness is much higher than that of Li Yunlong."

"After Wang Chengzhu established his base in Wangjia Village, he had a very harmonious relationship with the local people. He not only distributed food to the villagers, but also organized the villagers to reclaim wasteland to grow food."

"In the villages near Wangjiacun, Wang Chengzhu has a very good reputation, and the mass base is very good."

"Besides, Wang Chengzhu doesn't just focus on his own development. While developing himself, he will also support other friendly troops."

"Take the Independence Regiment as an example. The Independence Battalion attacked Wanjia Town at that time. Although the Independence Regiment arrived late, it also reaped a lot of benefits."

"The development of the other battalions of the New First Regiment is more or less related to Wang Chengzhu, especially this battle."

The boss always knows Li Yunlong. He is very sure of Li Yunlong's military command ability, but at the same time he hates Li Yunlong's bad habits and supports the development of friendly forces. This kind of thing is absolutely impossible for Li Yunlong. Not bad.

Thinking of this, the boss said: "So, this Wang Chengzhu's ideological awareness is indeed very good, and he is a good seedling worth cultivating."

Brigadier: "Well, by the way, boss, you see, is it possible to assign Wang Chengzhu an instructor, and then let him join our party. If possible, I can introduce Wang Chengzhu to the party."

Boss: "That's fine, but for now, let Wang Chengzhu develop himself first, we don't want to intervene too much, just pay attention to it all the time, let's talk about it after the three-month development period of Xinyituan has passed."

Brigadier: "Yes, yes."

After a pause, the brigade commander asked again: "By the way, boss, do you want to punish the new regiment this time?"

Boss: "Punishment? Why should you be punished?"

"The Xinyi Regiment does not need to ask for instructions. This is approved by me, and as Wang Chengzhu said, it's not that he doesn't want to ask for instructions. There is really no radio station, and he can't ask for instructions even if he wants to.

You can't just look at the devil and wait until you have finished asking for instructions. In that case, the day lily will be cold. "

"Besides, Wang Chengzhu's action this time was not reckless, but carefully thought out and carefully deployed.

At the end of the battle, quite good results were also achieved, and great military exploits were made. "

Speaking of Wang Chengzhu, the boss is always satisfied. Such a general who can be alone should be reused. How can he be punished?

When the brigade commander heard the boss say this, he also let out a sigh of relief.

He was really afraid that if the boss got upset and sent Wang Chengzhu to feed the horse or step on the sewing machine, he would be overqualified.

After a pause, the boss looked serious, and continued: "By the way, although our Eighth Route Army has achieved good results this time, it has also severely damaged the Japanese army in Northwest Shanxi, and won a certain amount of time and space for development.

But when the various troops are developing, they must not be taken lightly. They must prevent the Japanese army from counterattacking and retaliating, understand? "

Brigadier: "Understood!"

Boss: "Okay, there is nothing else, so let's do it first."

Immediately, the two hung up the phone respectively.

……

Some are happy and some are sad.

As happy as the Eighth Route Army is, how angry the little devil is destined to be.

Taiyuan.

Japanese First Army Command.

Yoshio Shinozuka seems to like playing chess and drinking tea very much.

At this time, he was drinking tea with Chief of Staff Toshi Miyano in his headquarters while playing Go.

Iijima Mori, who is in charge of intelligence work, suddenly rushed in from the outside: "Report to Your Excellency Commander, Your Excellency Chief of Staff, something serious has happened!"

Hearing this, Yoshio Shinozuka and Toshimi Miyano put down the chess pieces in their hands, and looked at Mori Iijima together. They all knew that Mori Iijima had always been calm, and if there hadn't been a major accident, they would never have revealed such a thing. panicked look.

Yoshio Shinozuka's expression changed, and he asked, "Iijima-kun, what happened?"

Iijima Mori said: "Your Excellency, Commander, according to the report of the 29th Brigade of the Imperial Army, the captain of the 5th Battalion of the Imperial Army, Yamazaki Haruhei, led his troops to sweep the countryside, and was then besieged by the main force of the Eighth Route Army of China in Hexi Township.

The 5th Battalion of the Imperial Army went down from Lieutenant Commander Yamazaki Zhihei, and more than 1200 imperial warriors were all broken, and no one was spared. "

"In addition, the 12th and 6th Battalions of the 7th Infantry Regiment of the Imperial Army and the 34th Battalion of the 18th Regiment of the Imperial Army Infantry were also ambushed by the Eighth Route Army of China and the Jinsui Army on their way to reinforce the 5th Battalion. , heavy casualties!"

"Baga! Yamazaki Zhihei is actually doing something at this time! I didn't make repeated orders. Recently, I mainly focus on defense. Don't you have to take the initiative to attack the Chinese army and the Chinese army's base without orders?"

After listening to Iijima Mori's report, Yoshio Shinozuka was so angry that he slapped the chessboard in front of him heavily. With a bang, the bullets on the chessboard jumped up and fell all over the room. Yes.

Iijima Mori and Yamazaki Zhihei are cousins, and the relationship between the two is also good. He explained: "Yamazaki-kun also wants to share your worries for your Excellency Commander. He plans to use himself as a bait to attract the main force of the Eighth Route Army, and then cooperate with the reinforcements. The army units together carried out an anti-encirclement against the main force of the Eighth Route Army. Finally, Mr. Yamazaki led the 5th Brigade of the Imperial Army to blossom in the center.

What I didn't expect was that Mr. Yamazaki wrongly underestimated the combat effectiveness of the main force of the Eighth Route Army, and failed to persist until the reinforcements from the Imperial Army arrived, which led to the final failure. "
