Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 780 Robbing the Army Again (First Update!)

"Political commissar, chief of staff, I plan to use the horses brought back by the guard company, and then gather the horses scattered in the battalions to form a new cavalry company directly under the regiment!" Now that he has made a decision, Wang Ping no longer hesitates, He directly expressed his thoughts to the two partners.

Anyone with a little military knowledge knows that cavalry is a very expensive unit.

All the expenses of raising a cavalry company, if used to form ordinary infantry, are at least three companies.

Therefore, among the various units of the Eighth Route Army, there are very few organized cavalry units.

The Eighth Route Army was so poor that most of the time ordinary infantry didn't even have food to eat, let alone feed a cavalry with the money that could support three times the number of ordinary infantry.

So, after Wang Ping said his thoughts, both of them were stunned for a few seconds before they realized it, and then showed very incomprehensible expressions.

Wang Ping immediately introduced to the two of them how the guard company was attacked by the Devil's infantry and cavalry in a joint counterattack and suffered heavy losses!
Then he analyzed: "The devil has cavalry and armored troops. We can't form armored troops, so let's pull up the cavalry company first!"

"After forming an army in the future, not only can it be used to deal with devil cavalry units, tit for tat, tit for tat. It can also learn the fighting style of little devils, cooperate with infantry, and fight against little devils' infantry!"

"I agree..." Zhong Chenggong, who knew Wang Ping, answered directly without any consideration.

Political commissar Huang Yuanqiang originally disagreed, but after thinking about the powerful logistics reserves of the new group, he finally agreed.

The company commander and instructor were appointed, horse equipment was raised, and the training ground was designated. In less than two days, the cavalry company directly under the new regiment was established.

"Regimental Commander, the direct subordinate team urgently calls..." When Wang Ping was instructing the training at the cavalry company training ground, the communications staff of the regiment headquartered directly chased over and reported.

"What materials must the devil want to transport by railway?" Wang Ping immediately made a judgment.

You know, the task I gave to the direct team is to closely monitor the Devil Tongpu Railway and the nearest train stations.

The communications staff immediately replied: "Yes, Commander, this time the food is transported, a total of 100 tons and [-] million catties, and it will be directly transported to the front line via the Tongpu Railway. Now the little devil is loading the trucks. If there is no accident, it should be tomorrow morning." Let's go, pass through our base during the day!"

"The political commissar and the chief of staff asked you to return to the regiment headquarters immediately..."

As soon as he arrived at the regiment headquarters, Chief of Staff Zhong Chenggong sent a more detailed information to Wang Ping.

"Captain, although this time the devils transported food, but after suffering the loss last time, this time they are obviously much more cautious!"

"Among the more than a dozen carriages, two flat carriages are specially reserved for the army!"

"The flatbed car was transformed into a bunker by the devils with sandbags. Not only is it equipped with light and heavy machine guns, but it is also equipped with mortars and anti-aircraft machine guns!"

"In addition, there are devil armored trains escorting each end of the military column!"

"Also, because the stuffy tank cars are filled with food and won't explode, the little devils piled a sandbag bunker in front of each stuffy tank car, and deployed two machine guns!"

Wang Ping's face quickly became serious, and then he stared at Zhong Chenggong and asked: "That is to say, there is a fixed fire point on the roof of each carriage of the Devil's Army Train. In addition to these, there is an armored train at one end and one at the end. There are still two devil positions..."

"Not bad!" The chief of staff replied with a serious expression on his face!

After hesitating for a moment, he stared at Wang Ping and asked, "Regimental Commander, I think that if we want to rob this line of troops, we need to mobilize at least two main battalions, and we need to strengthen the heavy firepower of these two main battalions!"

"The main force cannot be mobilized. Once the main force moves, the little devils in Linfen City will know about it!" Wang Ping retorted, shaking his head.

"The battalions report that they have recently caught a lot of suspicious people near the barracks and have handed them over to the intelligence department. It has been confirmed that many of them are spies sent by the Japanese and puppet troops to monitor our new regiment."

"So, until these spies are dealt with, the main force must not move!"

Political commissar Huang Yuanqiang interjected: "Leader, this is my dereliction of duty. During this time, I have been thinking about training the political cadres of the whole regiment, and many things have been neglected. After I go down, I will arrange for the intelligence department to increase the intelligence search and anti-rape capabilities of the base area! "

"However, this will take time, and it is almost impossible to completely eliminate the Japanese and puppet military agents in the base!"

Chief of Staff Zhong Chenggong was in a hurry: "There is no main force, so what should we do?"

"There are more than 100 guards on the devil's train alone, there are two armored trains, and the devil's garrison stronghold along the railway line, all of these must be attacked!"

"Regimental Commander, are we just going to watch the devil's military column passing by our base to deliver food..."

"Certainly not. We must rob this military column. Do you still remember a request I made to everyone before the autumn harvest? This year, our new regiment will have at least 2000 million catties of grain in stock no matter what method we use. !"

"Now, the grain depot has been repaired, just waiting for the food!"

"Then how to rob? If you want troops, you don't have troops, if you want heavy weapons, you don't have heavy weapons~" Zhong Chenggong asked anxiously.

Wang Ping hesitated for a moment before giving an order: "Give orders to the second, third, and fourth battalions to send a company out of the station during training, and then quickly rush to the railway line to assemble and stand by!"

"The regiment headquarters is directly under the mortar company, the Feilei artillery company, the guard company, and the engineer platoon. They are secretly assembled. Let's set off tonight and go to the railway line. I will lead the team myself!"

"Political commissar, the task of transportation is still entrusted to you. The devils are now focusing on our main force. They should be able to gather enough carts to transport food on the railway line without their sight!"

"In order to deceive people, we can say that we transfer a large amount of equipment and ammunition that was intercepted from the devil's army column to the mountain to the outside world!"

It was less than half an hour before the military column arrived here, and all the troops were in place.

Because it is daytime, this means that the entire operation must be completed within an hour and a half.

Otherwise, it would be devastating to wait for a new regiment to strike as soon as the Devil's plane arrived.

As time passed bit by bit, Chief of Staff Zhong Chenggong not only did not show any excited smile on his face, but worried.

In the end, I couldn't help asking: "Regimental Commander, there are more than a dozen firepower points in the devil's army column, and there are two armored vehicles, two flatbed carriages full of devils. We only have the strength of one company, and we don't have heavy artillery. Can you beat them?"

"It's impossible to fight recklessly!" Wang Ping replied with a mysterious face.

Then he explained: "This section of the railway is a straight line, and there is no slope. After the Devils arrive, the speed must be very fast! If we misplace the rails and let the Devils armored trains and military trains rush out of the railway at a very fast speed, Tell me, what will happen on the railway!"

Zhong Chenggong was stunned for a moment before answering with surprise on his face: "The devil's army will definitely brake suddenly, then roll over and collide with each other... Captain, I understand!"

"As long as the devil's column is overturned, the devils on the column will be seriously injured even if they don't die, and lose their fighting power!"

"We have no problem dealing with wounded devils in one company!"
