Bright sword: starting from the logistics department

Chapter 137 How to Stop
In October 1942, Neiji Okamura, the commander of the Japanese North China Front Army, launched a raid on the Eighth Route Army's Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei base area and the Jin-Sui base area!The goal is to wipe out all the vital forces of the Eighth Route Army in the area. Everything in the Eighth Route Army's base areas will be wiped out, all people will be killed, all houses will be burned, and all supplies will be taken away.

In November of the same year, the Japanese army’s raids in the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei region and the Jinsui region had just ended. Immediately, Huihui and the two armies launched another sweep against the Eighth Route Army’s southeast Shanxi region.

Eighth Route Army 386 Brigade Headquarters:
The chief of staff came to the brigade commander with a telegram and said, "Old Chen, the headquarters ordered!"

The brigade commander took the telegram and checked it carefully!

After reading it, the brigade commander's face became serious instantly, and he said to the staff next to him: "Send the breakout route and location to all the troops below!"

"Yes, Brigadier!"

Chief of Staff: "Old Chen, what are you going to do with the New First Regiment, New Second Regiment, Independent Regiment, and Independent Second Regiment?
After they cover the retreat of the people, it is estimated that they will not be able to retreat to the predetermined location! "

The brigade commander thought for a while and said: "If you can't retreat to the scheduled location, you won't go!
Tell Li Yunlong and the four of them that after completing the blocking, if they cannot retreat to the Taiyue area, they will choose to break through to the north, and then turn to the northwest of Shanxi!
It has just been mopped up by the little devils, and their forces have all assembled to our position!
It's just right for them to be stationed, and by the way, take over the original 335 brigade's station! "

The chief of staff nodded and said, "It's a good idea! But the headquarters?"

"It's not a problem at the headquarters, I'll explain it later!
The main task now is to protect and transfer the people. The four of them need to stop at least [-] little devils. This is not the time of the big counterattack last year. With a solid position, the little devils only have one way to go!

This time they didn't have a solid position, and there weren't any high mountains around them. They were all hills and hills that could be easily climbed over!
If they dare to fight the little devils, then the only way to meet them is death! "

"Old Chen, do you need to remind them?"

"No need, if they can't even see through this point, then I'm blind and hired them to be the leader of the regiment!
It's better to die as soon as possible, so as not to waste a bullet on me! "

The chief of staff stopped talking, just watched the brigade commander continue to issue orders there!

In normal times, although he is strict with his subordinates, he is still a treasure, but whenever he makes any mistakes, he will bear them as much as he can!

The current state is that you must complete the order I gave you, and you don't have to come back to see me if you can't complete it. Even if you come back, I will shoot you!

The brigade commander in this state has not been seen by the chief of staff for a long time. It is conceivable how much pressure the Japanese raid has put on the brigade commander. The last time I saw the brigade commander in this state was... the last time!
Independent Second Regiment Headquarters:

Zhao Gan called Li Shan, Yu Shan, and Qi Ming all over!
After seeing them all sit down, Zhao Gan said to the three of them: "You also know that the Japanese army has just swept away the Jinchaji and Jinsui side, and now they are gathering troops towards us, and they want to give us a big package. Finally Eat them all!"

After hearing Zhao Gan's words, the three of them all nodded!

Li Shan: "Old Zhao, what do you mean above? You called us here because of an order from the brigade department?"

Zhao Gan nodded and said, "Yes!"

Then Zhao Gan stood up with a serious face, took out the order from the brigade and read it out:

"Order the 386nd Independent Regiment of the [-]th Brigade to block the enemies from Lu'an to the west of Shanhe Village for three days at all costs!
Buy time for the fraternal troops who transfer the people to the rear!

For some reason, the people of Shanhe Village where you are stationed are transferred by your Second Independent Regiment!
After the blocking is completed, your department immediately breaks out to the predetermined location!
If the conditions at that time do not allow you to break through to the target location, you can wait for the opportunity to change to the station of the original 335 brigade in Northwest Shanxi!

Eighth Group Army 129 Division 386 Brigade Headquarters

November 1941, 11"

After Zhao Qian read the order, he sat down and asked the three of them, "If you have any opinions, please share them for reference!"

As soon as Zhao Qian finished speaking, Li Shan opened his mouth and said, "Old Zhao, is it our Second Independent Regiment that is blocking the Japanese army in Lu'an, or is it going to block it with the three brother troops around?"

Zhao Gan: "The Lu'an Mansion was originally a frontline garrison that threatened the Zhongtiao Mountain battlefield, and it has the strength of a first-class division!

This time it is not a positional blocking battle, but an encounter battle, which is not something my independent second regiment can face by itself!
So the brigade department gave me this order at the same time for the Second Independent Regiment, the Independent Regiment, the New First Regiment and the New Second Regiment!

Our four regiments not only want to stop the Japanese army in Lu'an Mansion, but also take care of the transfer of the people in their respective garrisons! "

After Qi Ming heard Zhao Gan's words, he said to the three of them: "Leader, Political Commissar, and Deputy Head Yu, I have a suggestion. I don't know if I should say it or not?"

Zhao Gan waved his hand and said, "Now is the time for discussion, speak freely!"

After hearing Zhao Gan's words, Qi Ming stood up and walked to the map on the wall and said, "Head, political commissar, and deputy head Yu, look, this is where our four regiments are stationed!

From the map, the stations of our four regiments are connected together to form a diamond shape!
In the middle is the Independent Regiment, the left wing is my Second Independent Regiment, the right wing is the New First Regiment, and the rear is the New Second Regiment!

The deployment of the little devils is an arrow-style sweep, and the position of the arrow is the establishment of an independent mixed brigade!

His flank guards are all normal squadron size!

Then there was another mixed brigade! , and then another ordinary squadron!
The distance between each team is about 10 kilometers!
It takes at least 1 hour to support on flat roads, but our area is full of hills and hills, so the support time may be longer!
We can take advantage of this time difference! "

Zhao Gan: "How to use it?"

Qi Ming: "We can contact the independent regiment and ask them to feign attack on this mixed brigade of the Devil's Arrowhead!

After the arrow's brigade is attacked, his two squadrons will quickly move towards him!

One is to take advantage of the situation to encircle the attacking enemy;

The second is to add troops to this brigade!
And the vacancy in this squadron will be filled with the ghosts in the arrow shaft position!
In this way, they can keep the mopping troops in peak condition forever!
However, if these two squadrons are approaching the arrow, if there are two teams that can quickly destroy them to ambush them, this formation will lose its effect in a short time!

They will be forced to stop and wait for the follow-up troops to fill the vacancies of those two squadrons before moving on! "

Zhao Gan and the three nodded after hearing this!

But then Yu Shan raised doubts!

Yu Shan: "Staff Qi, you said that the devil at the position of the arrow shaft will promptly take the position of the two missing squadrons!

Then we gather the strength of three regiments just to eat up these two squadrons, isn't it a bit of a cannon effect to kill mosquitoes!

And it will also expose our position to the little devils, causing them to gather troops from other places to surround us! "

Hearing Yu Shan's question, Qi Ming immediately explained, "Deputy Head Yu, what is the order we received?"

Yu Shan: "Stop the Japanese army in Lu'an Mansion, protect the people stationed there and retreat! You mean?"

Qi Ming: "That's right, the bigger the trouble we make here, the better!
Only in this way can we firmly attract the Japanese army in the direction of Lu'an here. As long as our four regiments stay here for a day, they will not be able to move forward!
And for three days, they couldn't completely surround us!

We can take advantage of the trend to break out on the last day! "

Li Shan: "Equally famous, all four of our regiments stopped the Japanese army in the direction of Lu'an, what about the people in our four garrisons?"

Qiming: "Political commissar, since last year's war, the surrounding regiments have more or less followed the example of our Second Independent Regiment to establish a recruit company, but the scale is different!

We can completely let a few veterans lead these recruits to escort these people and retreat with the large troops!

In the end, all these recruits were left to the brigade headquarters, so that we did not need to allocate troops to escort the people, but also transferred the people safely! "

Seeing that both Yu Shan and Li Shan had no objections, Zhao Gan stood up and asked Qi Ming, "Qi Ming, have you considered how our four regiments can stop nearly [-] little devils?
There is no deep and dangerous place in this place, it is all hills and plains!

Wanting to stop the [-] Japanese army for three days can be said to be a dream come true! "

Qi Ming: "Regimental Commander, our purpose is to stop the advance of the Japanese army, not to destroy them, there is absolutely no need to confront them head-on!
So we can dig tunnels in various villages as much as possible while the Japanese army has not arrived here in the past few days!
The tunnel does not need to be long, it only needs to be able to be transferred from the inside to the outside, so that the cellar has multiple exits!

In short, the purpose of authenticity is to prevent the soldiers from being smashed into the ruins after the little devil knocks down the house!
If the little devil wants to wipe out a village, he needs at least hundreds of tons of ammunition. Even if the little devil takes out these ammunition, his heart will hurt for a long time, so I think they will have to try at least a few days before using shells to completely cover the village! "

Zhao Gan and the three of them all nodded after hearing the words of equal fame!
In fact, Qi Ming's plan coincides with Zhao Gan's idea, but this plan is very troublesome when retreating. If there is a better way out, Zhao Gan really doesn't want to do it!

Because once this plan is implemented, once a small mistake is made during the retreat, the retreat may fail, and the little devils will face a complete blockade!
Seeing that the three of them stopped talking, Zhao Gan stood up again and said, "Do you have anything to add?"

The three of them shook their heads in unison, indicating that there was nothing to add!

After Zhao Gan saw the actions of the three, he said, "Since there is nothing else to add, then, I order!
Equal names, sort out this plan as soon as possible!

Li Shan and Yu Shan, you are in charge of excavating tunnels in and around our station!

After finishing the plan, Qi Ming led the soldiers of the [-] recruit company and all the grassroots cadres of the recruit company to form a reinforced battalion, responsible for transferring the people in our station! "

"Yes!" After hearing Zhao Gan's order, the three of them all stood up and shouted!
After accepting the order, all three of them went out to arrange the things they were responsible for!
After the three left, Zhao Gan picked up the phone and said, "Get me the independent group!"

In the independent regiment headquarters, Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang are worrying about how to complete the orders issued by the brigade headquarters!
He jumped when the phone rang suddenly, picked up the phone dissatisfied and shouted: "Who is it?"

Hearing Li Yunlong's angry tone, Zhao Gan said with a helpless smile, "Brother Li, who is making you angry again?"

"Brother Zhao, no, it's not that Lu'an's little devil is a little bit more annoying!"

"This matter! Then you don't have to worry about it. This is the task of our four regiments. Your independent regiment is in the middle. Call the two of them to your place and discuss it together!"

"Okay, then I'll call Lao Ding and Lao Kong now!"

"Okay, I'm leaving now, the sooner the better!"

"it is good!"

After Zhao Qian hung up the phone, he shouted to the outside: "Gangzi, take two horses. Come with me to the independent group!"

"Yes, Captain!"

Li Yunlong here, after hanging up the phone with Zhao Gan, he no longer looked sad, but also had a smile like a chrysanthemum on his face!

Zhao Gang saw Li Yunlong's changes before and after, and asked suspiciously: "Old Li, is there a new change?"

Li Yunlong shook his head and said: "There is no new change. The call is from Zhao Gan. He will come over later and ask me to inform Lao Ding and Lao Kong to discuss how to stop the Japanese army in the direction of Lu'an!"

Zhao Gang nodded after hearing this and said: "Well, that's the only way to do it. If the four of us join together, even if there is no other way, we can stop the Japanese army in the direction of Lu'an here for three days. !"

When Li Yunlong heard Zhao Gang say that he would resist, he immediately said unhappy: "Old Zhao, our independent group has only 2000 people now, the new second group has about 2000 people, and the independent second group and the new first group have almost 3000 people!

The total is only about 2, and now the direction of Lu'an alone is a devil from the Class A division, nearly [-]!

If the top is hard, we will quickly be dumped by devils from other directions, and our position is clear, and the possibility of hiding and breaking out is gone. This is not how wars are fought! "

"Then what can you do?"

"I just thought of using the terrain of the village to stop it, there is no other way!"

"Then wait for Zhao Gan and the three of them to discuss it together!"

"It can only be this way!"

Two hours later, Zhao Gan, Ding Wei, and Kong Jie all arrived at the Independence Mission's residence!
After Li Yunlong invited the three of them to the regiment headquarters, without any polite words, he said directly: "Do you three have any thoughts on blocking and transferring the people this time?"

The three of them also knew that the situation was urgent, and they didn't have any intention of being polite. In addition, this is Li Yunlong's territory, so he should come to open the topic, so the three of them didn't have any objection to Li Yunlong presiding over their small meeting of four!
