Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 1122 Okamura Ningji (Second update!)
"Regimental Commander, the latest battle report from Touguan Town: The devils did not fight us to the death, but broke out in squadrons. Even the devils in the stronghold did not intend to stick to it, so they abandoned the stronghold and started to break through!" Chief of Staff Zhong Chenggong Walked to Wang Ping and reported.

Wang Ping didn't show much surprise on his face: "The devil's reaction speed is very fast!"

"After knowing that I was fooled, I immediately chose to break out of the siege to minimize the casualties~ It seems that our idea of ​​completely annihilating the [-]-day puppet army in Touguan Town will come to naught!"

"Send a telegram to several combat battalions on the front line, telling them not to pursue them too deeply. Rabbits will bite people when they are in a hurry, not to mention the little devils who are armed to the teeth!"

"The dark night can provide us with cover, so it can also provide cover for the Japanese army. Don't be bitten by the little devil and cause unnecessary losses!"

After dawn, the battle is over.

Two planes of the Japanese Air Force rushed to the battlefield with a roar. Seeing the empty battlefield full of corpses, they flew away after only circling twice.

The new regiment of soldiers hiding in the nearby woods rushed out immediately and took the time to clean up the battlefield.

"Regimental Commander, we found more than 600 corpses of devils and more than 100 corpses of puppet soldiers on the battlefield. In addition, we also captured more than 400 puppet soldiers...the puppet soldiers have been running for more than 4000 days, and almost half of them have run away~" I found Wang Ping again. Chief of Staff Zhong Chenggong reported with a look of disappointment.

Wang Ping shook his head and comforted, "Don't be dissatisfied!"

"There are only so many Japanese and puppet troops in Linfen. We killed 2000 people in one battle. This is already a big victory. What else do you want? Kill them all in one battle?"

"Devils are not fools, and now they are more and more aware of our combat methods. Therefore, it must be very difficult for us to kill an infantry regiment of them like before!"

"You summarize the results of the battle and report to the military region!"

"Also, copy last night's battle report to all battalion commanders of the Xinyi Regiment..."

The headquarters of the Taiyue Military Region saw the good news sent by the Xinyi Regiment, and the worried expression on Commander Chen's face disappeared immediately.

"It's still Wang Ping who has the ability to command the troops to kill more than 2000 Japanese puppet troops in just a short time!"

"With this victory in place, I'm sure the low morale of the Xinyi Regiment will be improved~ Wang Ping has a solution!"

The chief of staff next to him also had a face of approval, but when a battle report was sent by his subordinates, the smile on his face disappeared all of a sudden!
"Commander, with Wang Ping in charge in the fourth division, the situation seems to have been reversed. But the situation in the other military divisions is not so good!"

"I'm looking for you Okamura Neiji, the new commander of the North China Front Army. After he took office, the devils changed their original combat methods and reduced our base area little by little through the cannibalization and three-light policy!"

"Until now, our base area has shrunk by nearly 5%, and the military and civilians in the base area have suffered more than [-] casualties, most of whom are ordinary people who support our Eighth Route Army!"

"The devils are too ruthless. As long as they support our common people, they will either kill people or burn houses. They won't give us a way to survive!"

"Also, the devils occupied our bases bit by bit by encroaching on them step by step. Once they occupy a place, they control a place, and then build bunkers and artillery towers!"

"This move is indeed very vicious!" Commander Chen analyzed, frowning.

"In the past, when they raided our base areas, they divided their troops into the hinterland of our base area. We can use them to go deep alone and use guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare to defeat them one by one, thereby smashing their heavy raids."

"But the devil's way of mopping up directly made our guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare useless!"

"Furthermore, the Three Lights policy implemented by the devils really scared many people in the base areas, and they dare not continue to support us like before!"

After hesitating for a few seconds, he ordered: "Return telegrams to several military divisions. If there is no fighter opportunity, find a way to create a fighter opportunity. Facing the Japanese and puppet army's sweeping method of encroaching step by step, passive defense will only make your own face The situation is more passive!"

"Also, don't they have a lot of action teams formed by learning from the new regiment? Let them send these action teams to the rear of the Japanese army to develop troops and attack artillery towers and bunkers!"

"The first-line Japanese and puppet troops are huddled together, and we have no way to deal with them. Then we will go to their rear to deal with them. If our rear is in chaos, it is obviously impossible to continue to encircle us with peace of mind! "

"Also, report these situations to the Xinyi Regiment. They not only have to face the devils in Linfen City, but also the devils around them. The pressure is the greatest among our several military divisions. The division is the strongest, but the way the devils raid has changed after all, we have to guard against it!"

Lieutenant General Ito was in a bad mood at the headquarters of the Japanese Army Division in Linfen City, but he was also very fortunate.

Originally thought that the 4000 people he arranged in Touguan Town would be wiped out because Wang Ping saw through his plan, and even if they were not wiped out, they would suffer heavy losses.Fortunately for him, more than 4000 people came back with more than 2000 people.

"General, the data you asked me to count has been counted ~ Now our entire division still has more than 600 combatable soldiers, and the Imperial Association Army has more than 5000. The Imperial Army has nine infantry brigades fully equipped Full staff, all four regiments of the Imperial Association Army are fully staffed... In addition, we also have an independent cavalry brigade, a field artillery brigade, a mountain artillery brigade, a disabled engineer regiment, and a transport regiment!"

"The remaining three infantry brigades were all crippled, leaving only one shelf, with a total strength of less than 1000 troops!"

Lieutenant General Ito stared at the map and ordered: "From the supply unit, the engineering unit, and the guard unit, draw people, fill up the three disabled infantry units, and form three mixed units. Each mixed unit has A mountain artillery squadron or a field artillery squadron, three infantry squadrons, a mortar squadron, and a cavalry squadron!"

"Hey... Give me two days and I can complete the formation of three mixed brigades!" The chief of staff replied immediately.

Lieutenant General Ito continued to order: "See these four strongholds! Order the garrison to give up immediately~"

"Why?" the chief of staff couldn't help but ask.

In the eyes of the chief of staff, these four strongholds have the same effect as the lost Touguan Town stronghold.It served as a bridgehead for the imperial army to encircle and attack the Eighth Route Army's base area.

If these bridgeheads were abandoned, it would definitely be more difficult for the imperial army to launch a new round of sweeps against the bases of the Eighth Route Army in the future.Not to mention anything else, the transportation of logistics supplies alone will waste a lot of troops and time!

Lieutenant General Ito was not embarrassed, and replied without hesitation: "I am worried that these four strongholds will be captured by the Eighth Route Army just like Touguan Town!"

The chief of staff's first thought was that the division chief was too worrying.

The reason why the Touguan Town stronghold was lost was due to the combination of various reasons.

As for the problems faced by the Touguan Town stronghold, these four strongholds did not have them.

Just when he was about to say something, Lieutenant General Ito continued: "Wang Ping is too cunning. To be honest, when I face this person, I have no chance of winning at all!"

"Not only do we have to withdraw all the garrisons from these four strongholds, we must also repair all the strongholds and gun towers in all the villages and towns along this line!"

"Smaller villages garrison a combat unit of the Imperial Army, a platoon of the Imperial Association Army, larger villages garrison an infantry squadron of the Imperial Army, and a company of the Imperial Association Army. Larger towns garrison an infantry squadron of the Imperial Army, the Imperial Association Army A battalion!"

"At the same time, each of these points is stationed with an infantry brigade. Once a stronghold on the front line is attacked, this infantry brigade can immediately rush to the battlefield for reinforcements!"
