Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 688 Bad news? (Third update!)
After hesitating for a long time, the deputy captain didn't answer the captain, but asked a question that the troops were about to face.

"Sir, the troops have suffered heavy losses, should we move on next?"

"Go ahead and die!" The captain, who was holding back his anger, replied angrily.

The deputy captain thought for a while and replied: "The Imperial Association Army still has nearly a regiment's strength, sir, they can also fight!"

"It's them!" The captain showed a mocking expression on his face.

"There is not a sufficient number of imperial troops to supervise the battle. Can you be sure that they will not betray the imperial army and surrender to the enemy when facing the Eighth Route Army?"

"This!" The deputy captain hesitated.

In one day and one night, although the Imperial Association Army did not suffer any losses, the loss of the Imperial Army was obviously greater than the fear caused by their own loss of soldiers and generals.

The deputy captain could see that they were already full of fear for the new regiment that hadn't really appeared on the battlefield.

Let them go to the battlefield under such circumstances, it is very likely that the situation that the captain said will happen, betraying the imperial army and surrendering to the Eighth Route Army.

The captain didn't give his deputy much time to think. He frowned and ordered: "Assemble the troops, take the wounded, change the rear team to the front team, and retreat immediately. Go directly to Linfen City, it's closer, the sooner the better!"

The guard company, the reconnaissance platoon, the engineer platoon... just as more than 200 people had assembled, Xiong Changhe rushed over.

"Commander, good news, the devils have retreated!"

"Withdraw!" Wang Ping asked back with a look of disbelief.

Then he rushed to the slope where everyone hid just now.

"The devils are retreating, Captain, we have won!" Zhong Chenggong, who was following behind, shouted excitedly.

Xiong Changhe followed up and added: "Commander, since the devils have retreated and abandoned Tianxin Town, why don't we build a base here!"

Wang Ping didn't show any smile on his face, but instead frowned.

Frowning, he asked back: "Build a base area? Who told you that the Devils gave up Tianxin Town!"

"Isn't it? They have all retreated, so they will fight back?" Xiong Changhe asked rhetorically.

"Of course I will call back, and it will be very fast!" Wang Ping affirmed.

Both Zhong Chenggong and Xiong Changhe had puzzled expressions on their faces.

After Wang Ping let out a long sigh, he explained with a calm face, "Our opponent is very smart."

"Although there are more than 1000 Japanese and puppet troops on the highway, there should be less than 300 real devils left. If these people continue to move forward, they must deliver food to us. Especially a regiment of puppet troops, they can't do it. Well, you can bring us more than half of the regiment's recruits!"

"He saw it very clearly, so he chose to retreat."

"But don't forget, as long as they are not completely wiped out by us. After returning to Linfen City, just add a few hundred devils to come in, and the troops can quickly recover their combat effectiveness, and then come to us again!"

"With the experience and lessons learned this time, once the devils come back, it will be very difficult for us to sneak attack them on the road and eliminate them. At that time, we will have to rely on two incomplete infantry battalions to resist the elite of the [-]-day puppet army. In this way The result, have you thought about it?"

"It's really possible!" Zhong Chenggong and Xiong Changhe's faces turned serious.

At this time, Xiong Changhe suddenly suggested: "Commander, what if we wipe them all out?"

"The devils will re-evaluate our strength. Even if they want to return to Tianxin Town to encircle and suppress us, they will have to call in new troops, and the strength will be far more than 2000." Zhong Chenggong said with a bright eye. road.

And he analyzed with his eyes bright: "Let's not say that the devils in Linfen City have limited troops and can't spare any troops to attack us. Even if they can spare troops, we will be fine in the face of new troops that have never fought against us before." Hit a lot!"

"But!" Zhong Chenggong suddenly let out a long sigh, and then continued.

"The devils have already begun to retreat. From here to Linfen City, as long as they hurry up and march, they will arrive at eight o'clock tonight. We have no chance to kill them at all!"

Xiong Changhe's hope that had just been ignited was also shattered, he frowned and said nothing.

Wang Ping suddenly said, "No, we still have a chance!"

"Since you have seen the huge gap between completely wiping them out and not completely wiping them out, then I will not talk nonsense. Now, the tiger of the puppet army for more than 2000 days has been beaten into a sick cat by us, and it is finally time to close the net , To even want to run, that's wishful thinking!"

"Of course, even if they really want to live, yes, they must leave us something."

"Since we came out of the mountain, including the second battalion, our losses have been seven to eight hundred if not one thousand. As for the ammunition, the reserve is almost used up. Such a big loss, if we don't get some benefits from the devils, then we will lose a lot !"

Xiong Changhe and Wang Ping asked, "Head, you have a solution!"

"Take your battalion and set off now. No matter what method you use, you must rush to the front of the devils and destroy the only way the devils must pass back to Linfen!"

"The devil is equipped with mountain artillery and infantry artillery, and there are more than a dozen carts full of ammunition and corpses, so they can only take the road!"

"If the road is destroyed, they can only march while repairing the road, unless they give up all their heavy weapons and supplies, and there are hundreds of corpses!"

Xiong Changhe reacted quickly and shouted excitedly.

"The devils will definitely not give up hundreds of corpses, unless their commander doesn't want to live anymore!"

"Leader, this method of yours is definitely feasible, I will set off now!"

Wang Ping continued to order: "Chief of Staff, as long as I drag the devils into the night and avoid the annoying planes above my head, I will have a way to kill them!"

"So, contact the third battalion commander immediately, bring all the troops and light and heavy weapons that can fight, and divide the troops to gather here!"

Wang Ping pointed to a point on the map and said confidently.

At this moment, the communication platoon leader suddenly walked over with a serious expression on his face.

Wang Ping's good mood just now disappeared all of a sudden, and he had a very bad premonition.

Staring at the communications platoon leader, he asked, "Is it the second battalion or the fourth battalion?"

"Fourth Battalion, the commander of the fourth battalion urgently sent an urgent call. The devils transferred the first brigade on the blockade to deal with them. Now they have entered the territory of Fengyun Town, and they are about to exchange fire with them!" The communication platoon leader replied immediately.

"The first brigade, that is the devil's well-deserved main force. It has rich combat experience and has been guarding outside the mountain to fight us. It knows us very well. The fourth battalion has met its opponent!" Wang Ping sighed and replied helplessly.

Chief of Staff Zhong Chenggong also frowned: "The devils are coming in a menacing way, and they are directly dispatching troops from behind the Fourth Battalion. The Fourth Battalion must have never thought of it!"
