For Li Yunlong, it doesn’t matter whose idea it is.
The important thing is that the operational plan for the surprise attack on Datong can be supported by the leaders and implemented smoothly.
So Li Yunlong shrewdly chose not to speak.
He had long seen that the same tactics would always seem a little unreliable if he said them himself.
If Lao Kong had asked him to speak, he would have definitely succeeded. This guy is still labeled as "an honest man", "stable", and "has a view of the overall situation"!
Sure enough, when all the cadres' eyes were focused on Kong Jie, who had not spoken much since reporting the intelligence.
The deputy chief of staff immediately said:
"Kong Jie, tell me what battle plan you and Li Yunlong are planning?"
Kong Jie prepared his words in silence, and then walked directly to the huge military battle map spread out in front of everyone, even covering the entire three Jin Dynasties.
He first pointed out a point on the map with his hand, which was the Huangyadong base area where the Huangyadong Arsenal was located.
“Here, the Huangyadong Arsenal, as the most important logistical foundation of our Eighth Route Army, is the inevitable target of the little devil’s attack this time.
Moreover, the Japanese have successfully obtained the intelligence information that we intend to release.
Including these days, we deliberately transport some raw materials from the Xiantian Canyon, as well as the slag shipped out.
The Japanese spies detected these situations and can easily analyze that the scale of the arsenal we built in Huangyadong is quite exaggerated.
So, for the Japanese army, our Huangyadong Arsenal is the most attractive piece of fat, and the little devil must eat it!
So although this battle has not officially started yet, we can almost conclude that one of the core points of this battle between us and the Japanese army is the battle to defend Huangyadong. "
With a few words, after attracting all the attention of the cadres, Kong Jie continued:
Change the source app and view the latest chapters of this book on multiple sites at the same time. 】
"Except for the Huangyadong area, this time the Japs came with great momentum, and the troops invested were not only the main combat troops of the First Army stationed in Shanxi, but also a large number of elite troops stationed in Mongolia.
So it can be expected that in addition to the Huangyadong area, this battle is likely to affect the 385 brigade base area, our 386 brigade base area, and even our entire Taihang base area.
Judging from the overall situation, although we have obtained a lot of information about the Japanese army in advance, we have also made adequate responses in advance.
But in the final analysis, our response to the Japanese army's long-planned attack this time is to focus on defense.
Whether we are setting up a net in Huangyadong or waiting in the base area, this is the case. We are always on the defensive.
After this battle started, the fighting area has always been within the scope of our base area.
In this way, even if we successfully repulse the Japanese army in this battle, we may even severely damage the Japanese's main combat force.
The little devils can completely retreat to their stable occupied areas, recuperate and re-grow their troops.
This kind of passive style of play always makes people feel unhappy.
So as soon as Lao Li and I thought about it, we began to think that since the Japanese had been planning for a long time, they took the initiative to attack us.
In addition to passive defense, why can't we find opportunities for our offense? "
Having said this, Kong Jie, without hesitation, directly picked up the stick in front of the table and pointed to Datong in the north direction of the map - the fortress in the Japanese-occupied area where many important railway lines intersected.
"Here, Datong, may be our opportunity to attack!"
"If the Japanese attack our Huangyadong, we will destroy the Japanese's Datong!"
When these words came out, they were quite shocking.
In addition to the excitement on Li Yunlong's face, who had already reached an agreement with Kong Jie, even Captain Wang and Ding Wei also had expressions of astonishment.
Good guys, everyone is still thinking about how to deal with this massive Japanese attack!
This guy Lao Kong has already thought about how to launch a counterattack, and he will poke the little devil in the ass when he comes up.
Heading straight to Datong! ! !
Of course, this is the particularly open discussion style of the Eighth Route Army cadres in military matters. In the pre-war discussion meetings, all cadres can participate, and they can put forward any thoughts, good ideas and tactics at any time.
Let’s brainstorm ideas!
So after talking about Kong Jie's insights and tactics, the soldiers were more thinking about whether it was feasible or not, and weighing the pros and cons.
There will never be any jokes or criticism.
Bang bang bang——
A burst of applause sounded, but it seemed a bit monotonous for no reason. Everyone's eyes were focused on Li Yunlong's face, but Lao Li continued to applaud without blushing: "Okay, that's great, Lao Kong, the idea of a surprise attack on Datong, I must support you!"
"Kong Jie, keep talking!" the boss said, ignoring Li Yunlong.
"yes!"
Kong Jie responded and told all his thoughts:
"Comrades, please look at the map. Based on the relevant intelligence we have detected this time, it is certain that the Japanese will launch an attack on our Huangyadong Arsenal, and the scale of this attack will be quite large.
Including the 36th Division of the First Army stationed in Licheng, and three mixed brigades drawn from Yangquan and Taiyuan City.
In addition, the Mongolian troops stationed in Mongolia were reinforced by the Japs from the direction of Datong and Baotou.
After briefly imagining on the map, we can clearly see that the little devil is going to form a large network from north to south, from east to west, and then use our Taihang Mountains as the third side of the network.
Completely in a large triangular formation, our entire Taihang base area was surrounded in one fell swoop.
So once this battle breaks out, no matter what preparations we make, no matter how we adjust our tactics, we will be able to deal with the Japanese attack.
It is basically difficult for our main combat troops to escape from the Japanese encirclement net.
This is a very passive thing! "
When the conversation changed, Kong Jie's voice rose a bit, "If it was before, we only had regular infantry, there would be nothing to say.
It's just that all the frontline troops in our Taihang base area have developed well in recent years. If the little Japs come over to attack, we can only passively defend. Why should we fight such a useless battle?
We have an excellent opportunity right now.
Lao Li created a rapid reaction force directly under our Taihang, that is, a mechanized combat force.
With the help of a large number of mechanized combat vehicles, elite troops of one to two thousand people can carry out long-distance and large-scale roundabout operations with superior mobility.
Here, Datong!
In order to form a large encirclement network from the north to the south, the Japanese army's main force of the 26th Division originally stationed in Datong, including the cavalry group stationed in Baotou, would advance southward according to intelligence.
Not only that, if the Japanese army wants to transfer the Mongolian troops originally stationed in Datong and Baotou to the south, they must also consider the combat troops of the 120th Division of our Northwest Military Region.
So what will the little devil do?
They will definitely send considerable forces in advance to blockade the base areas of the Northwest Military Region and block the access to Shaanxi before sending reinforcements to the south.
This means that the Japanese have to mobilize some troops from Datong.
Under such circumstances, the Japanese and puppet garrison originally stationed in Datong was already empty of troops, which was inevitable.
Not only that, if we want to attack Datong, we will definitely conduct joint operations with the 120th Division in advance. With the main combat troops of the 120th Division, the 120th Division can simultaneously coordinate operations in our Taihang base area and attack the surrounding areas of Datong. Some counties, towns and towns launched sheep attacks.
At this time, in order to stabilize the situation in the northwest, the Japanese had to withdraw some of the troops originally stationed in Datong.
Datong, which was already depleted of troops, now had its defensive strength weakened to the extreme.
In this case, if we use our mechanized combat troops to quickly make a large-scale detour, our elite rapid reaction troops will detour northward in a curve, or even bypass the 120th Division base area and detour back to Datong. dorsal side.
Then, in the direction of the Taihang base area, the Japanese 26th Division and the Cavalry Group had already gone south for reinforcements, and they were in an anxious moment.
Taking the opportunity to launch a fierce raid on Datong.
In Datong, which is located in the Japanese security zone, the Japanese would never have thought that our army would make a large-scale detour to penetrate a mechanized combat force.
If this mechanized combat force, carrying one or two thousand elites, is like a magic weapon descending from the sky, it suddenly appears in Datong, which is empty of troops.
Even if it is a fortress.
Due to the lack of troops, the Japanese army's reinforcements from all aspects were basically contained.
We may not be able to break through Datong within the planned time and directly attack the home base of his 26th Division.
At the same time, perhaps we can also coordinate the battle in the direction of Taihang Base! "
The words that sounded slowly had no special momentum, but the content of these words shocked the military cadres present, whether they were regimental commanders, political commissars or brigade commanders.
I have to say that Kong Jie's bold fighting style is really surprising.
However, the words of Captain Kong are not over yet!
"In addition, in order to achieve the purpose of raising suspicions, in addition to the cooperation of the 120th Division, in addition to the operations in the direction of the Taihang base.
Once the battle begins, this time we will send a small-scale mechanized combat force to the east side of Licheng to attack Shimen and HD in a detour. We will also cooperate with multiple parties to advance the troops and at the same time move towards the 36th Division's logistics base camp—— The direction to Licheng is roundabout.
We have a mechanized combat unit on hand, and the Japs know this. If our mechanized combat unit doesn't show up, the Japs might still be suspicious.
Then let's call him.
Once this battle breaks out, Licheng will serve as the most important logistics base for a large number of Japanese combat troops.
Our Eighth Route Army tried every means to sneak attack the Japanese base camp in Licheng and blow up the Japanese temporary airfield. This is a very reasonable thing.
With this series of large and small cover, in the end, our main rapid reaction force, even if it travels day and night, will be able to circle back to the back of Datong, which is depleted of troops, and catch the little Japanese by surprise!
Beat him to a great and earth-shattering degree! "
Having said this, Kong Jie seems to have regarded Datong as his own, and he has even made arrangements for the aftermath of Datong:
"Once Datong is captured, we will definitely not be able to stay for long. As a transportation hub and fortress, the Japanese will take Datong back to us at all costs.
Now is not the time to seize important counties for the Japanese army.
After Datong was captured, the Japanese army's granaries and arsenals were first taken down, and all the large numbers of mechanized vehicles stored by the 26th Division in Datong were taken away.
If the vehicles are not enough, in a county as big as Datong, if we buy more trucks from the people, it will be enough to loot all the supplies, equipment, ammunition, and all military supplies that the entire 26th Division has accumulated for many years.
Then the troops can shrink to the northwest military region nearby.
We can even shrink all the mechanized combat vehicles we captured to the 120th Division in the future. They can be used as a common tool to transfer the offensive troops of the 120th Division to any area in the Japanese-occupied area at any time to launch multi-directional attacks. attack.
Perhaps we can take advantage of the 26th Division stationed in Datong and the cavalry group stationed in Mongolia to go south and break through the middle line blockade that the Japanese have imposed on our Taihang base area and the northwest region in recent years.
Maybe our two major base areas can be completely connected and merged into one! "
As these sonorous and powerful words fell,
There was silence in the entire conference room, and the silence could be heard.
A moment later, Li Yunlong, who was also shocked, clapped Lonely's hand vigorously, and shouted loudly: "Lao Kong, you are really here, it's wonderful, you are really a genius!"
Kong Jie's plan was really too thorough and thoughtful, which was also beyond Li Yunlong's expectation.
At the same time, Lao Li was very grateful in his heart that he had just determined to build a rapid response force directly under Taihang, and he was thinking about how to fight the first battle to become famous.
No, Lao Kong has given us the most dazzling stage.
According to Kong Jie's wonderful surprise attack plan, the only ones capable of carrying out such an arduous combat mission are the mechanized combat troops under Li Yunlong.
Who else could it be?
Therefore, he, Lao Li, must support Kong Jie's battle plan!
The boss, deputy chief of staff, including political commissar, brigade commander, and brigade commander Chen.
To be honest, it would be a lie if you were not amazed by Kong Jie's bold yet feasible tactics.
Even with their level and vision as commanders, they have to admit that Kong Jie's strategy of using quick reaction troops to surprise Datong, break through the enemy's blockade, take the initiative, and attack the enemy's vitals and heart is simply amazing. Wow.
Brigadier Chen shook his head in emotion and whispered to the brigade commander on the side: "It is true that a strong general has no weak soldiers, and the big brother is the big brother! Kong Jie's progress over the years is simply amazing!"
The brigade commander accepted the slap without changing his expression.
Kong Jie's amazing performance was naturally beyond his expectations.
But thinking about it carefully, it seems that I have become accustomed to it. Has this kid Kong Jie brought him too few surprises in the past few years?
What a plan to surprise Datong!
It’s absolutely amazing!
