Kong Jie, Li Yunlong, Huang Yu, Deng Jingye, and Liu Sen from the former enemy headquarters of the Eighth Route Army in Yizhong were gathering around a table made of ammunition boxes to summarize the results. Everyone had smiles on their faces and was very happy.
"Lao Kong..." Li Yunlong said proudly.
"My only regiment was the first to enter Baoding."
"Severe damage to the defense forces in the east of Little Devil City and the lurking forces in the east of the city."
"Follow the Japs and fight all the way to the west of the city, capture the Japs garrison headquarters, and kill the two major general brigade leaders."
"In the battle to blockade the Japanese and puppet troops in the west of the city, they also cooperated with Shunping and the Mancheng garrison to severely inflict heavy losses on the Japanese and puppet troops in the south and north of the city."
"The number of Japanese and puppet troops that were wiped out was 2,400 or 500, if not 3,000." Kong Jie said curiously, "Let's see what you can do."
"But the only regiment did fight well in this battle."
"Especially the use of thunder cannons."
"He is very cunning and has good timing."
"Almost every time the thunder cannon is used, it causes a lot of damage to the Japanese and puppet troops. All of us must learn from this."
"But I'm so anxious to call everyone here not only to summarize the results, but also to have a big thing that I need your help with."
"Huang Yu, what are you talking about?" Huang Yu nodded to Kong Jie and began to speak: "Kawasaki has prepared two thousand ambush troops for us in Baoding City."
"Fortunately, we were prepared in advance, otherwise the siege troops would definitely suffer a lot from this gift."
"I want to retaliate with tooth and prepare a big gift for the little Japanese who are reinforcing Baoding."
"I need each regiment to help me collect two thousand kilograms of high explosives and telephone wires on the battlefield. The more the better, and I also need two hundred landmines."
"The engineering platoons of each regiment are also coming to help me."
"From now on, no troops can approach the Japanese garrison in the city." Li Yunlong was the first to react and asked worriedly: "Xiao Huang, I remember you have used this method of attack before."
"The Japs lost nearly a brigade in that explosion."
"Now that the old tricks are repeated, will they still suffer losses?" Huang Yu said confidently: "Captain Li, don't worry."
"The previous style of play didn't have any technical content. If the kid was fooled last time, he wouldn't be fooled a second time."
"This time I plan to prepare a trick for the Japanese."
"No matter how cunning Okamura Neiji is, he will fall into the trap, so just relax and prepare to watch the show." Kong Jie continued: "Everyone has heard Xiao Huang's request. The relevant supplies, ammunition and troops must be in place within an hour. "
"All the other troops went to grab the loot."
"Ningji Okamura will definitely send planes to bomb the Baoding arsenal after dawn, leaving us with nothing in Baoding city."
"Everyone must move the air force arsenal before dawn."
"We also need to release thick smoke in the city and set up air defense positions so that the Japanese aviation forces cannot attack us accurately and reduce the chance of the loot being destroyed."
"If the Japanese planes dare to carry out low-altitude bombing, I don't mind taking down two more planes before we evacuate Baoding." After explaining two more things, Kong Jie was just about to announce the breakup of the meeting when he saw Wang Lin, the communication platoon leader, looking at him with a happy face. They rushed over and started reporting from a distance.
"Captain, Commander Li, good news, great news."
"The headquarters decided to deploy five main regiments from the surrounding areas to support us, but we need to provide them with weapons and ammunition supplies."
"The reinforcements are already on their way to Baoding, and the fastest regiment will be in place before dawn."
"After the counter-mopping up began, all five main regiments were under our command."
"The regiment commander will take the lead, and regiment commander Li will assist. We will strive to hold the Yizhong base and severely damage the 50,000-strong Kwantung Army that marched south."
"If nothing can be done, I will bite off a piece of fat from the 50,000 Kwantung Army and make Neji Okamura feel the pain." After listening to the telegram, Li Yunlong was even more excited than Kong Jie. Excited Wang Lin wrote with anticipation on his face: "You Is that correct?"
"The headquarters really plans to deploy five main regiments to reinforce the Yizhong base area. They will all be commanded by Kong Jie and I, not the five main battalions."
"The telegram said there were five main regiments, and reinforcements came from different bases in the surrounding areas. There is definitely nothing wrong with that."
"Haha..." Li Yunlong laughed after hearing this.
"I didn't expect that I, Old Li, would have the opportunity to command ten regiments at once."
"Kong Er is stupid, I really made the right decision to stay in the Yizhong base."
"Thanks to your luck this time, I will also enjoy being a teacher."
"Including the Yizhong base area, there are ten main regiments. I have been fighting for so many years, and I have never gained so many troops at once."
"It's so damn enjoyable."
"Fifty thousand Kwantung Army sounds like a lot, but with the reinforcements of these five regiments, if I look at them again, they have become a piece of fat on my lips."
"According to our previous counter-mopping plan, even if there are no reinforcements, we can pull out the tiger's teeth and eat more than 10,000 Kwantung Army troops."
"Now that there are tens of thousands of reinforcements, we can kill more than 10,000 more little Japs no matter what." Kong Jie was not as optimistic as Li Yunlong. As a result, after reading the telegram once, he flashed a wry smile, looked at Li Yunlong and shook his head.
"Old Li, this battle is not as simple as you think."
"With reinforcements, our troops have more than doubled, but that doesn't mean that the overall combat effectiveness will more than double in proportion." Li Yunlong immediately frowned and asked with a puzzled look on his face: "What do you mean? Tell me clearly. A bit?"
"You will understand after reading the telegram." Kong Jie said as he handed the telegram to Li Yunlong.
"Although there are more than 10,000 reinforcements from the five regiments, their equipment level is very poor."
"The average regiment only has four or five mortars."
"The average gun fires less than twenty shells."
"Each regiment only has five or six heavy machine guns, and each heavy machine gun has less than 300 rounds of ammunition."
"Each main battalion only has six or seven light machine guns."
"The rifles equipped are basically made in Hanyang and have old sleeves. The proportion of 38 rifles accounts for less than 20%. The average number of bullets per capita is 30 rounds and two grenades."
"This little firepower is not as good as our reinforced battalion!" Li Yunlong replied without hesitation: "They don't have enough equipment, we will replenish it!"
"We have seized so many weapons and ammunition in Baoding. A little bit of them will be enough for them to use!" Kong Jie looked at Li Yunlong in surprise and asked curiously: "Are you willing to give it up?"
"Each main regiment adds five mortars, and the five regiments add up to twenty-five mortars."
"Each regiment will add five heavy machine guns, adding up to twenty-five heavy machine guns."
"We need at least 100 light machine guns and at least 2,000 rifles, which is enough for us to form a reinforced regiment in the base area in the wing."
"More ammunition!"
"Each regiment should replenish at least 500 rounds of artillery shells, 300,000 rounds of rifle bullets, and 5,000 grenades."
"You are really willing to take out so much equipment and ammunition at once?"
