Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 890 The Commander's Method (Second Update!)
The commander frowned, staring at the sand table without speaking.

It took a full 5 minutes before he asked Wang Ping, "Don't worry about anything else, just say how long you can hold Linfen City!"

"Of course, I'm not asking you to stick to Linfen City and fight head-on with the devils who came here. You are the leader of the new regiment, so you have the final say on how to fight!"

Wang Ping stared at the sand table and hesitated for a minute before affirming: "Ten days, at most ten days..."

"It is more than 100 kilometers from the front line in Northwest Shanxi to Linfen City. The best way is to slow them down with guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare on the road. If I attack now, I am confident that I will hold them back for ten days!"

"Enough!" The commander's eyes quickly shot out twice.

"I have an idea. All the mountain artillery and infantry artillery seized in this battle are left in our Taiyue Military Region. I plan to take away eight mountain artillery and the original mountain artillery company directly under the brigade to form a mountain artillery battalion. Infantry artillery, and supplementary All the remaining light and heavy machine guns and mortars directly under the rear of the brigade are left to you. You recruit elites from the Xinyi Regiment to carry out this task, and hold back the [-]-day puppet army for ten days!"

"I will return to the military region in a while. Now that the other three military divisions have added a large amount of ammunition, the combat effectiveness of the troops will definitely be greatly improved. I plan to use these ten days to fight at least two devils in other military divisions and eliminate at least two infantry Brigade, also open two breakthroughs in other aspects of the military region!"

"After the main force of the devils took Linfen, if they want to continue the siege campaign, they must deploy troops to fill these two gaps. In this way, the pressure on the new regiment will be much less!"

"If the Japanese army intends to end this siege and concentrate their forces against your new regiment, I will ask each of the three military divisions to assemble at least one main regiment's strength, take the initiative to attack, kill the little devils, threaten their rear, and give the new A dollop of stress relief!"

Wang Ping's eyes lit up and he replied, "This method is good!"

"Linfen is such a big place. If we killed the [-] Japanese puppet army at once, no matter how many troops we have, it is impossible to confront them head-on. But solving this problem from the outside is different. There are nearly ten regiments in three military divisions. Together with the directly subordinate brigade, at least the commander of the devil division can be forced to split the strength of two regiments!"

"Commander, I agree to this fight!"

The commander nodded affirmatively: "Then it's settled. I'll go back to the military area in a while. I've been out for so long, so I should go back!"

Then he changed the subject and continued to ask: "However, even so, your new regiment still has to face more than 2 Japanese troops, including a heavy mountain artillery regiment, a field artillery regiment, and a tank brigade... There is still a huge disparity in strength. If they fail, they may be kicked out of Linfen by the little devil!"

The smile that just appeared on Wang Ping's face disappeared suddenly.

With a sullen face, he stared at the sand table without speaking.

After working so hard for so long, with a remnant soldier, I managed to fight this situation. The army has also developed into a main force regiment that the entire Eighth Route Army even the head of the headquarters knows.

If the next battle is directly turned into a prototype, Wang Ping will definitely not be reconciled.

However, the opponent's strength is too strong, even if the commander shared one-third of the Japanese army's strength.In front of the weak new group, they are still giants, unshakable!

Five minutes passed, and Wang Ping still hadn't moved his eyes from the sand table in front of him.

10 minutes later, still nothing.

The commander couldn't help asking: "I don't care how to fight, the devils haven't killed them yet, and I don't know the combat style of this division. If the current thinking is not good, it will be overthrown after the battle begins!"

"Wang Ping, please tell me first, what difficulties does your Xinyi regiment face in the face of [-] to [-] elite Japanese troops? Solve the difficulties first, and then figure out how to fight this battle well. At the very least, you must keep the Xinyi regiment now." base!"

Wang Ping's heavy face finally moved: "Commander, are there any problems with equipment and ammunition? Because the troops have lost a lot, our Xinyi Regiment now has fewer people and more guns."

"There are also a lot of heavy weapons. The mountain artillery battalion has five mountain artillery companies with twenty mountain artillery, and each main battalion has two infantry artillery. In addition to the infantry artillery and mortars left by you, Commander, several main battalions can already be established. Infantry battery and mortar battery!"

"As for the ammunition, Commander, I don't hide anything. The ammunition that Xinyi Regiment has in stock is enough for several large-scale battles, so it's not a problem!"

The commander nodded and asked, "Is there no problem with the new regiment?"

"Yes..." Wang Ping replied immediately.

"Strength, the new regiment has a serious shortage of troops..."

"In the battle that just ended, the main force of the new regiment plus the local troops directly lost more than 3000 people, although there were nearly a thousand wounded in it. However, these wounded basically cannot return to the army within a month!"

"The gap in the troops is too large. Many main forces have only one platoon or even half a platoon left in each company. They are almost crippled!"

"I'll solve this problem for you!" The commander suddenly made a decisive decision, not like a joke!

Wang Ping shook his head and smiled wryly: "Commander, there are two to three thousand people, not hundreds, how do you solve this?"

"Now the military area is fighting everywhere, every battalion and even every company is fighting, how can we spare troops to reinforce our new regiment!"

The commander didn't get angry because of Wang Ping's rebuttal, but replied confidently: "I said to help you solve it, and I will definitely find a way to solve it for you!"

After finishing speaking, the commander shouted to the guard at the door of the war room: "Immediately notify the chief of staff of the directly subordinate brigade to report here!"

Chief of Staff Wang rushed into the war room, and before he could speak, the commander asked, "How many people are left in the direct brigade, and how many captured puppet troops are there!"

The chief of staff, who didn't realize what was wrong, replied with a smile on his face: "Commander, in this war, the direct brigade directly lost nearly 2000 people, but at least 500 people with minor or serious injuries can return to the army!"

"However, we still captured more than 800 prisoners on the battlefield, and we will definitely mobilize more than 1000 people to join our Eighth Route Army. In this way, the direct brigade has almost no losses!"

After a big battle, not only killed two to three thousand devils, but also seized a large amount of equipment. The mountain artillery company was expanded into a mountain artillery battalion, a heavy machine gun platoon, and a mortar company, all of which reached full strength.More importantly, after the captives were replenished, the troops had almost no losses, and their combat effectiveness was only strong but not weak.

For the chief of staff, this is definitely something to be happy and proud of.

However, the commander's next words instantly wiped out his good mood!
