Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 785 The real battlefield? (Third update!)
In Nuo Da's war room, almost all the staff were surrounded by the huge combat sand table, staring at the railway line on the sand table, motionless.

After a full 5 minutes like this, Major General Matsumoto, who was standing among everyone, reacted, and the solemn expression on his face disappeared instantly, and was replaced by the excitement from the heart.

"Since the Eighth Route Army dared to rob the ranks of the Imperial Army under the noses of the Imperial Army, then we can take advantage of this opportunity to severely injure them..."

"Chief of Staff, as soon as the next day dawns, you send out the reinforcements you have prepared and station here. The middle of the railway in the Xinyi Regiment's control area is also the only commanding height of this railway line!"

"I will dispatch another regiment of the Imperial Association Army from the city, and use the company as a unit to disperse them on this railway line, and cooperate with the strongholds along the line to ensure that there are no Eighth Route Army troops along the railway line. If the Eighth Route Army appears, immediately fire warning shots!"

"In addition, the Eighth Route Army who wants to attack the military ranks also brought six infantry artillery. The imperial army's artillery must be stronger than them. The Mountain Artillery Brigade sends out two squadrons to go to this area with the mixed brigade!"

"There are so many troops stationed near this section of the railway line, and there are aviation troops who have been escorting the battlefield, ready to provide air support at any time. And this time, the military column and the escorting armored train are traveling on the railway in full accordance with the standards I require. Even if the Eighth Route Army has tampered with the railway, we are not afraid!"

"With such a tight defense, if the Eighth Route Army still has the guts to come over, I don't mind severely injuring them, or even killing them!"

Every move of the Japanese puppet army did not escape the eyes of Xinyituan. The political commissar and Zhong Chenggong were very anxious.

The railway a few kilometers away is too dangerous. The Japanese and puppet troops add up to nearly 3000 people, including infantry, cavalry, artillery, and armored troops.

Not surprisingly, when the Devils arrive, there will be armored trains and planes.

In this case, if the Xinyi Regiment killed less than 2000 people, it would be tantamount to throwing themselves into a trap.

"Leader, I hope you will think carefully! I think this battle is too difficult to fight, and we have almost no chance of winning!" The closer to the railway, the more anxious the political commissar Huang Yuanqiang, frowned and reminded again.

"I agree with the political commissar's opinion~ Leader, it is best not to fight this battle!" Zhong Chenggong, who had always been confident in Wang Ping, was not optimistic about the next action this time.

Seeing that Wang Ping was unmoved, the chief of staff continued to analyze: "Even if we successfully cut off the military column, it would be no less difficult to transport the materials on the military column to the base area. If all the materials are sent back to the base area, our 2000 people will also suffer heavy losses, which is not worth it!"

Wang Ping finally spoke.

Instead of directly answering the questions of the two partners, he gave orders directly.

"The troops went directly into the mountains and waited in hiding in the mountains two kilometers away from the railway!"

"The three battalion commanders brought their reconnaissance squads over, and ordered all three infantry squads to act to ensure that the troops did not expose their targets before dark!"

"Before dark!" The frowning chief of staff immediately heard a very unexpected sentence from Wang Ping's order.

Political commissar Huang Yuanqiang also came to his senses, staring at Wang Ping and asked, "Commander, are you saying that today's battle won't happen until after dark!"

"How is it possible? Guizijun Lie will arrive here at two o'clock in the afternoon, how could it be possible to wait until dark. Commander, are you confused~"

Wang Ping shook his head and replied: "You don't have to worry about how to drag the battle until night, you will know by then. I just need to know if it is possible for us to take down the military column and transport all the supplies on the military column back to the base area at night! "

"Yes!" The political commissar hesitated to answer, but the worried expression on his face was not soothed, and some complex expressions of shock and confusion emerged.

Chief of Staff Zhong Chenggong followed closely and added: "Without the devil planes, there is no problem in taking down the military column, but it takes a little effort to remove the food from the military column under the siege and interception of the Japanese and puppet troops, and the troops will definitely pay a lot. loss!"

Wang Ping nodded and continued to ask: "If I transfer more than half of the nearly [-] Japanese puppet troops on this section of the railway, so that they have no chance to participate in the battle, is it possible for the troops to take down the military ranks within five hours, and Remove all the food on the military column!"

"I have no problem here!" Wang Ping brought too many surprises and surprises to himself. This time, political commissar Huang Yuanqiang didn't ask why, but thought for a while to answer.

"From the information sent back from the direct subordinate team, I learned that the Japanese army had transported 400 million catties of grain this time. I started preparations two days ago. Anyway, you said we don't need to hide this time, team leader."

"In two days, I gathered more than 800 carts from various bases, and I also brought all the mules, horses, and war horses in the regiment, and I could transport almost 200 million catties of grain at one time. Five In an hour, we can easily go back and forth twice and transport the grain directly to the depths of the mountain!"

"I have no problem here!" the chief of staff added shortly thereafter.

"We have nearly 2000 people, including six infantry artillery, nine mortars, and eighteen heavy machine guns. Even if we confront them head-on, I am confident that we can kill them, or at least hit them hard!"

"Then there's no problem!" Wang Ping replied easily.

"What everyone needs to do now is to go into the mountains, then take a good rest, replenish your strength, and after dark, fight the devils and rob the army!"

At twelve o'clock at noon, there were less than two hours left before the train passed the Xinyituan base.

Major General Matsumoto finished his lunch early, and then stayed in the war room, waiting for news.

Suddenly, a communications staff officer rushed into the war room in a hurry.As soon as he saw Matsumoto, he reported: "General, there is an urgent message from the military train. They were attacked at a position [-] kilometers east of Linfen. The armored train in front derailed and rolled over, losing combat effectiveness!"

"Now the military columns are being attacked by the powerful firepower of the Eighth Route Army. The guards have suffered heavy losses and urgently need reinforcements!"

The chief of staff immediately found the location, pointed to a point on the sand table and reported.

"General, right here!"

"Although it is not within the scope of Linfen, the county where this section of the railway is located is still under the jurisdiction of our brigade. If something goes wrong, we still have to pay joint and several liabilities!"

Major General Matsumoto was stunned for a moment, and then a suddenly realized expression appeared on his face.

He stood up from his seat and shouted, "Bageyalu, I understand, I finally understand!"

"Why did the Xinyi Regiment dare to come out and rob our military columns when we were defending the railway with heavy troops? It turned out that they didn't plan to attack in their controlled area, but in the imperial army's controlled area that none of us thought of!"

"Baga, we have prepared for such a long time and deployed so many troops, all for nothing!"

The chief of staff immediately reminded: "General, what should we do, should we immediately order the troops to reinforce the attacked military column!"

"Of course we need reinforcements. If the food on the military column is snatched by the Eighth Route Army, all of us will be sent to military courts!" Major General Matsumoto replied angrily.

The chief of staff reacted quickly, staring at the sand table and replied: "I'll go and arrange the troops right away!"
