Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 148
After almost a minute of silence, Zeng Quan replied with a heavy tone: "You are right, commander, the casualties of the troops are indeed very heavy!"

"Especially the first battalion that treated the devils as the imperial association army, and the third battalion and first company that blocked the Japanese army head-on, more than half of the casualties!"

"I want specific data!" Wang Ping asked with a sullen face.

"The first battalion sacrificed 159 people, 47 people were seriously injured and lost combat effectiveness, and 206 people were directly reduced, including two deputy company commanders and two deputy instructors! The second battalion sacrificed 81 people, 15 were seriously injured and lost combat effectiveness, and 96 people were directly reduced! The third battalion sacrificed 153 people, 71 people were seriously injured and lost combat effectiveness, and 224 people were directly reduced! The troops directly under the regiment headquarters sacrificed 52 people, 17 were seriously injured, and 69 people were directly reduced. The total reduction of the whole regiment is 595 people, which does not include nearly 400 minor injuries member!"

"The consumption of troops is also very high: the 7 rounds of bullets and three grenades per capita brought out by the infantry are basically used up, and the mortar shells and special grenades brought out are also used up. More importantly Unfortunately, we also lost nine grenadiers, one heavy machine gun, seven crooked handles, and more than 200 rifles!"

"If it weren't for the large number of seizures in this battle, the combat effectiveness of our independent regiment would have dropped a lot."

The already heavy and depressing atmosphere became even more depressing at this time.

At this time, Wang Ping said: "Killing one thousand enemies will cost us eight hundred! This is the result of our preparation and careful arrangement. There are many devil recruits, and we concentrate our superior forces to fight them. If we are not prepared, we will encounter devils on the battlefield." , fight hard against hard, even if our independent regiment is not completely wiped out by the devils, we will lose almost the same!"

"However, we didn't get nothing." Wang Ping changed the subject and continued.

"The results of the battle and the capture, the chief of staff has already talked about it just now, so I won't say more. Besides this, our independent regiment has another harvest, that is, more than 1000 veterans! Soldiers and recruits who have fought with captives, as long as they survived on the battlefield , are now veterans!"

"As long as we make up the pretense and ammunition lost on the battlefield, and add some new recruits to the battalions and companies, it won't take too long, and the combat effectiveness of the independent regiment will be different from what it used to be, far exceeding the independent regiment before the battle!"

"As battalion and company commanders, you have to do the following things after returning to the station: first, and the most important thing, call the troops together for a summary meeting, every living soldier must participate, and analyze the strength of the troops. Various problems that arise during the battle, and suggestions for improvement, how to fight, can reduce the casualties of the troops to a minimum."

"When the time comes, each platoon will have to issue a combat summary, which will be collected in the hands of the battalion commander, and the study will be concentrated! After that, each company will also have to issue a copy, which will be handed over directly to the regiment headquarters, me, the political commissar, and the chief of staff. To see!"

"The second thing is to train, to train the various problems that the troops show on the battlefield."

"The third thing is to train the recruits well. When we return to the station, I will ask the chief of staff to replenish the recruits and equipment for you as soon as possible. You must train the troops well for us. Now we have eaten two brigades of devils. The Japanese army in Laiyuan City will definitely not let it go!"

Major General Ono knew about the attack by the Eighth Route Army on the two brigades of the Japanese Army Headquarters in Laiyuan City.

But because the Eighth Route Army blocked the entire battlefield, those intelligence networks did not know the news of the destruction of the two brigades.

It was not until the Independence Regiment withdrew from the battlefield that Japanese intelligence personnel had the courage to enter the battlefield and saw the corpses of Japanese and puppet troops stripped clean everywhere.

"Baga, how did the Eighth Route Army do it? More than 1000 elite imperial troops, including hundreds of cavalry, were eaten by them in just one day~ Can any of you tell me how many people there are in the Eighth Route Army and how powerful they are? What we need How many troops can be dispatched to destroy them!" Ono, who got the news, didn't believe the news at all at first, and after a full 5 minutes of silence, he cursed loudly, like an angry lion.

All the staff officers in the headquarters lowered their heads and dared not speak.

This battle was planned and personally commanded by Commander Ono, and now not only has he been defeated, but even the attacking troops have been wiped out.For Ono, this can definitely be said to be a resounding slap.

Therefore, everyone dared not talk to Ono at this time, for fear that Ono would vent his anger on himself.

Others can be dull, but the brigade chief of staff cannot.

He frowned and reminded: "General, the strength of the Eighth Route Army in Laiyuan is far beyond our imagination, and we still know too little about the Eighth Route Army!"

"Intelligence, what does the intelligence department do!" Ono reacted immediately, staring at the intelligence staff not far away and asked!

The intelligence staff quickly replied: "General, please calm down. The intelligence network of the special high school has just extended to Laiyuan City. As for the villages and towns around Laiyuan City, it has not been affected at all, let alone the area controlled by the Eighth Route Army. Now we are outside the city. There is only one source of information, provided by the Chinese who surrendered to the imperial army!"

"But there is a problem. After all, they are not professional intelligence personnel. A lot of intelligence sent to the headquarters is not only useless, but also misleading!"

"Then you can't form your own intelligence network! You are from the intelligence background. If you remember correctly, you have stayed in the super high class. Can't you train a few intelligence agents by yourself? You rely on the super high class for everything. What does the empire support you for?" !” Ono scolded directly.

Having said that, Ono seemed to have found a way to solve it, and ordered directly.

"I'm giving the intelligence department a chance. In half a month, no matter what method is used, they must find out the real strength of the Eighth Route Army outside the city. Specifically, how many troops there are, what kind of equipment, and how about the ammunition supply? clear!"

"Chief of Staff, during this period of time, the intelligence department will give you money if it wants money, and you will give it to people you want. You can satisfy them with everything. After half a month, if you still don't know what I want, the intelligence department will be a major or higher officer. All to court martial!"

Ono's calmness made the chief of staff heave a long sigh of relief, and then asked: "General, which troops are coming next? Do you want to go out of the city?"

"All operations are stopped, unless we have accurate information about the Eighth Route Army, otherwise, all troops will stay in the city."

Nakamura, the deputy chief of staff in charge of intelligence, was aggrieved. As a senior intelligence officer, he knew better than anyone else the embarrassing position of the intelligence department in the military.

When useful, those officers can bring intelligence to the sky.

When it is useless, they can forget about the intelligence department, or even let the intelligence department take the blame.

In the Japanese army, which advocated the spirit of bushido, almost everyone believed that the intelligence warriors acted secretly, and they couldn't be upright, so they were looked down upon by everyone.

Although there is a lot of pain in his heart, facing Ono's questioning gaze, Nakamura can only choose to take the blame and compromise with the head of the brigade.

But he knew better than anyone else that this task was extremely difficult!

After discussing with the chief of staff for half an hour, a solution that was not in the solution was finally formulated by the two of them.

Two days later, a small group of devils and a company of the Imperial Association Army suddenly left the city.

If the Independence Regiment had just eaten their two brigades and sent this little force out of the city, wouldn't that be death?This was Xu Hu's first thought.
