Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 923 Arrogant again (Second update!)
"Commander, good news!" Zhong Chenggong shouted excitedly while staring at Wang Ping as soon as he rushed into the war room.

"Report from the direct subordinate team, at nine o'clock this morning, more than 4000 Japanese troops suddenly left Linfen and rushed towards the direction of the military area!"

Political commissar Huang Yuanqiang immediately realized: "The two ambushes fought by the military region last night must have worked. These little devils are going to make up for the gap!"

Then he analyzed with a smile on his face: "Yesterday we inferred that there are more than 8000 devils, and nearly 2 infantry and cavalry. Now that 4000 people are removed at once, this means that Linfen City can fight head-on." There are less than 6000 devils left!"

"Except for the troops left behind in Linfen City, they dispatched 1 to 3000 people to attack us!"

Wang Ping shook his head and replied, "Political Commissar, you think too well!"

"You have never seen the power of the little devil's large-caliber heavy artillery. Not to mention the heavy artillery regiment, but the field artillery regiment directly under their division. If you use it well, it will be no more effective than an infantry regiment on the battlefield." .One artillery cover can easily kill one of our main battalions. As for their heavy artillery regiment, let alone, on the battlefield, a brigade is as powerful as a field artillery regiment!"

"In addition, there is the devil's chariot brigade, more than 30 tanks and armored vehicles, all of which are the trump cards in the hands of the devil."

The good mood on Huang Yuanqiang's face disappeared all of a sudden, and he asked calmly, "Then commander, do you have a way to defeat the enemy!"

"Not yet, I can only see the tricks. However, I already have a general idea." Wang Ping shook his head and replied.

Then the subject changed and continued: "There is no solution for the time being, but the troops can't be idle!"

"Political commissar, chief of staff, we need to use the time when the devils are not ready to further strengthen the training of the troops. That night the troops were pulled out to fight the devils, and any problems should have been exposed. Order a few battalion commanders, We must strengthen targeted training to ensure the combat effectiveness of the troops!"

Zhong Chenggong immediately replied: "Please rest assured, commander, we will pay close attention to this point... However, the army still has an old problem: equipment, equipment is seriously insufficient... Only one-third of the soldiers in the new main battalion have weapons. The proportion is even lower, only one fifth of the fighters have weapons, and there are almost no heavy weapons!"

"The war is imminent, and we must find a way to equip them with weapons, at least to ensure that they have a rifle in hand, so that they will not go to the battlefield with cold weapons!"

Wang Ping shook his head and replied: "I don't have any weapons now, not even a single rifle~ Go tell the battalion commanders that the weapons they are equipped with are all weapons and equipment that the regiment headquarters have embezzled and are about to hand over to Yan'an..."

"In addition, tell them that they can train without weapons. When the battle starts, they will have weapons. At that time, I will ask for four new main battalions, and they can fight with weapons. There is no time for them to adapt! "

"If there is any battalion commander who thinks that the troops cannot train without weapons, if you ask him to come to me, I will directly remove him from the position of battalion commander. Although our new regiment does not have many weapons, there are still people who can be battalion commanders." Quite a few!"

Ten days passed in a blink of an eye. Lieutenant General Ito finally couldn't bear it when he saw the warehouse slowly being filled with supplies and ammunition.

He wanted to attack the Xinyi Regiment's base area, kill the Xinyi Regiment, avenge the death of the division's subordinates.

In the conference room of Nuo University, more than a dozen officers with different ranks above the regimental commander were all sitting in front of their shirts, waiting for the division commander to give an order.

More than ten days of training is very boring for these field troops formed for war.

Everyone wanted to rush to the battlefield and let the Eighth Route Army have a good look at the powerful combat power of the imperial field troops.

When Lieutenant General Ito and the Chief of Staff came in, more than a dozen devil officers agreed and stood up in unison.

It wasn't until the head of the division waved his hand to signal them to sit down that they sat back in their seats, and then sat upright and waited for the head of the division to speak.

"Everyone, I believe that everyone already understands the purpose of my asking everyone to come and go. Since this is the case, I will not talk nonsense. Now, I would like to ask the chief of staff to introduce to you a new one that we have learned through the intelligence network and our own investigation during this period. Group situation!"

"There is a saying in China called knowing yourself, knowing your enemy, and winning a hundred battles. I hope everyone will listen carefully. Because, next, I will assign combat tasks to everyone based on the true strength of the new regiment. If there are any incompetent or other situations, you need to bring them up as soon as possible. When it comes to the battlefield, all participating troops must guarantee to defeat the enemy and kill our opponents, without any accidents!"

The chief of staff looked very serious, stood up and said: "Division commander, the garrison, after investigation, our opponent Xinyi regiment has a main force of more than 5000 people, and there are also 3000 to [-] local troops and guerrillas. However, apart from the fact that the main force is well-equipped, which is on par with our main force, more than half of the local troops and guerrillas are not even equipped with rifles, and almost no heavy weapons!"

"So, after the battle begins, our focus is on their main force~ as long as their main force is killed, the remaining local troops are nothing to worry about!"

Except for being attacked by a new group some time ago, and he was beaten in disgrace.None of them had ever fought face-to-face with Xinyituan.

Hearing that the main force of the new regiment was only 5000 people, the corners of everyone's mouths turned up, showing a smile full of contempt, and some people laughed outright.

There is no doubt that they have begun to be arrogant again.

However, they also have the capital of arrogance, fighting all the way to the northwest of Shanxi, and they have fought all the battles in which a regiment wiped out an elite infantry division of the Jinsui Army.

But now they have a division, a heavy artillery regiment, and a cavalry regiment, while the Eighth Route Army has only 6000 people.With such a huge disparity in strength, they saw that on the battlefield, they could easily kill them even if they spit out one by one.

Proud soldiers are bound to be defeated... The chief of staff is very clear about this truth.

Frowning, he didn't remind these subordinates, but continued to report.

"The more than 5000 Eighth Route Army is divided into five battalions, with strong combat effectiveness and excellent equipment. Each main battalion has as many as 1000 people, equipped with nine heavy machine guns, six mortars, and four infantry guns. In terms of firepower, they A battalion is already comparable to our infantry brigade!"

"As for combat effectiveness, the most intuitive manifestation is that they once killed a mixed brigade of ours on the battlefield. Therefore, in the next heavy encirclement and suppression of the Xinyi Regiment of the Eighth Route Army, all encirclement and suppression troops cannot use the brigade as a unit alone Take action and give the new group a chance to kill us!"

"At present, the four main battalions of these troops are stationed in four counties, and one main battalion is mobile. The intelligence department has already figured out the specific locations of these four main battalions. As for the new regiment headquarters and the mobile main battalion, they are stationed in Near Xiangfen County!"

Sitting opposite the chief of staff, he was also the only brigade commander in the division, and said directly: "Division commander, this battle is very simple, not as difficult as imagined... I really don't know, the former imperial army is besieging the new Why did you fail again and again when you were in a group, and even lost Linfen City!"

"My idea is that the troops will be divided into five groups, and they will directly attack the ten main battalions of the Xinyi Regiment and their regiment headquarters. As long as these main forces are eliminated, the remaining local troops and guerrillas will be nothing to worry about..."

As soon as the brigade leader finished speaking, several regimental leaders immediately expressed their support.

In their view, this is the most direct and easiest way to kill the new group.

However, Lieutenant General Ito did not express his opinion. He stared at the information in his hand with a calm expression, as if he had not heard their conversation.
