……"Report!"
Two neat voices came from outside the yard.
"Come in!"
Kong Jie shouted, and Duan Peng, the current captain of the commando team, and Ye Min, the deputy captain, both appeared in front of Kong Jie.
After Kong Jie introduced the specific situation to Duan Peng and Ye Min, Duan Peng and Ye Min were stunned for a moment, and Ye Min even exclaimed:
"Good boy, Commander, this American is so damn powerful. He went straight to the Japanese capital to bomb the capital!!!"
Kong Jie said: "It's just that the little devils are not vegetarians. Basically, the US bombers have been destroyed, and the pilots have been forced to disperse to the Zhejiang area. Your mission this time is to lead the commando team to Zhejiang secretly to launch an attack on these US bombers." Pilot’s rescue operation.”
Duan Peng nodded: "Old commander, I have nothing to say, these Americans are quite manly enough to dare to bomb the Japanese capital of Kyoto. Just because of this, I will definitely rescue them!"
Ye Min nodded in agreement.
These American pilots who dared to apply to participate in air strikes without caring about their personal life and death are indeed very kind.
Kong Jie explained: "Rescuing people is rescuing people, but remember, we must ensure the casualties of our team. How many comrades you two leave with you, you must bring back with me as many comrades."
If nothing can be done, remember: the lives of our own comrades are the most important! "
"yes!"
Duan Peng and Ye Min responded with smiles on their faces. This is an old tradition of the team. It's better to be a poor monk than a poor man, let alone some Americans!
When a team was still an independent regiment, the old regiment leader always emphasized that unnecessary sacrifices must be avoided in war.
They still understand this truth clearly.
Kong Jie began to check for leaks and fill in the gaps again. He thought that according to his memory, when rescuing the American pilots in Operation Doolittle, due to some unexpected factors, the Japanese army turned their anger on the Chinese people, and even led to a large number of people being killed. sacrifice.
The general behavior seems to be that the American pilots, in order to express their gratitude to the Chinese people who helped them, left a lot of medicine and food for the people.
As a result, the Japanese army was angered. The Japanese army believed that the common people deliberately harbored the pilots, and then carried out retaliatory massacres, which ultimately led to the tragedy.
This matter must be avoided.
“Remember, after finding those American pilots, during the evacuation process, try not to drag down the people and eliminate all traces of their departure.
Crazy little devils don't know how to be humane.
If the Japanese had not caught those pilots, they would most likely take revenge on the local people. "
"yes!"
After Duan Peng and Ye Min took over the mission, Kong Jie gave some detailed information and placed the location of the final search and rescue operation in the Guangfeng area of Shangrao.
In addition, the Zhejiang area is not the activity area of the Eighth Route Army, and only occasionally caravans from one team will enter the Zhejiang area.
Therefore, if this matter is to proceed smoothly, I am afraid that we will need the help of comrades of the New Fourth Army who are active in many southern provinces.
Kong Jie quickly contacted some New Fourth Army troops in the south, and the New Fourth Army comrades covered the commando team along the way south and launched the final search and rescue operation.
…
…
On the other side, the Japanese North China Dispatch Army Headquarters.
The old Japanese commander-in-chief of the North China Expedition Army, Okamura Neiji, had a gloomy face at the moment, staring at the intelligence documents reported in his hand without saying a word.
The spies and reconnaissance forces from all sides trying to infiltrate the Eighth Route Army base area have returned the news, saying that there is a joyous atmosphere inside and outside the base area of the First Detachment of the Eighth Route Army. The Eighth Route Army is holding a collective military wedding for five couples, including Kong Jie, the leader of the First Detachment. What a military celebration!
I just had a victorious battle and was lucky enough to win a few battles against the Japanese Empire.
I got so carried away that I even held such a high-profile military wedding banquet. I heard that it lasted for three days and three nights, and representatives from all parties attended.
Including the Jinsui Army, the Central Army, and even representatives of international countries.
Generals at all levels of the Eighth Route Army and even senior commanders from the headquarters attended the wedding banquet.
"You damn bastards! Have fun, the fun you have now will be the pain you will have later!"
Okamura sneered a few times and felt relieved.
It was true that the Eighth Route Army had too many informants. He was worried that the military actions he was plotting would be discovered in advance by the Eighth Route Army, which would result in failure.
Judging from the current situation, the Eighth Route Army is holding a wedding ceremony proudly, and the three armies are celebrating, thinking that they have won a great victory! Naturally, it was impossible to detect Okamura's deployment.
From this, the old Japanese Okamura felt that everything was under control. The advantage was mine, and I was sure of it!
"Xinxi, notify all troops to speed up preparations. All troops must arrive at the designated combat position before the battle begins according to the original plan!"
"We must further speed up the construction of various blockade fortifications in the Eighth Route Army base areas, and complete the complete encirclement of the Eighth Route Army's main base areas before the final battle breaks out!"
"Hi!"
...The war situation continued to evolve. Kong Jie, who had long anticipated the May Day raids, had a very accurate control over the little devil's psychology.
In order to once again deal with the Eighth Route Army troops in the occupied area, Okamura, an old Japanese soldier, stabilized the rear area in one fell swoop so that the Japanese army could free up their hands to concentrate on dealing with the situation of the Pacific War. This time, the layout was huge.
However, even if the basic situation is not exactly the same as the simulated combat teaching conducted by Kong Jie, Li Yunlong, and Ding Wei in the classroom of the sixth branch, it is not much different.
At least the general methods that the Japs could use were included in the teachings rehearsed by the three of them.
Concerning the possible retaliatory raids by the Japanese army, Kong Jie exaggerated and racked his brains to imagine the Japanese attack method in every possible way.
Therefore, the secretly deployed combat plan finally launched by the Japanese army against the Eighth Route Army was actually far inferior to the idealized worst-case scenario mentioned by Kong Jie.
For example, when Okamura actually carried out his secret deployment, the reality was actually far worse than the ideal state.
On the one hand, it is impossible for him to mobilize dozens of divisions at once just to plot Jizhong, as Kong Jie exaggerated.
On the other hand, the Japanese army wants to carry out a comprehensive military blockade against the Eighth Route Army base area this time, and even try to use extremely strong structures such as concrete for the blockade defenses, which requires a lot of material and manpower.
The manpower is not bad, and the number of Japanese and puppet troops is not small. If it is really desperate, they can still be forced to work.
In terms of material resources, although the Japanese army tightened their belts and provided a large amount of military supplies in order to suppress the Eighth Route Army.
But it also couldn't stop the huge consumption and layer upon layer of exploitation by the troops.
To give the simplest example, the Japanese army allocated 100 yuan for the construction of fortifications, but the actual money spent on the final construction of the fortifications may not even be 50 yuan.
Many Japanese and puppet security forces, especially those that were in frequent contact with the Eighth Route Army and Chiang Kai-shek troops, were already rotten to the core.
Probably because the Japanese army's so-called holy war has progressed to this point, and any discerning officer can see that the Japanese Empire will be defeated sooner or later, and it is just hanging on for a while.
Since there is no hope of victory, why are you still working so hard?
Just mess it up!
Some officers even deliberately exaggerate and falsely report military exploits for their own personal gain when performing military tasks.
For example, if a stronghold repairs one site, then when it comes to reporting for repairs, it says that three will be repaired.
The defense line advanced one kilometer, and some Japanese officers even dared to report five kilometers.
The turrets and bunkers that were originally supposed to be built with concrete structures ended up being covered with a thin layer of concrete on the outside, but the interiors were still the original masonry structures, in order to save materials to the greatest extent and enrich their own pockets.
To repel the guerrillas' harassment of the construction site once was to repel the Eighth Route Army's main attack.
In addition, the caravans from the Eighth Route Army came from time to time, giving them real benefits. No matter how strong the defenses were, it was impossible to stop the invasion of interests.
From this back and forth, the officers who benefited from it made a lot of money.
The so-called impregnable fortifications planned by the old Japanese Okamura have actually been defeated long ago.
"So, this corruption does not respect any country. As long as they are human, as long as they need to eat and drink, as long as they can easily access the benefits that they can hide for themselves, very few people can stick to their true intentions!" When talking about this matter, Kong Jie said this.
It's a pity that Okamura didn't know about it, and he even believed in the compliments that he would hit the Eighth Route Army severely and take over the Eighth Route Army's logistics station Jizhong in one fell swoop, which would be just around the corner.
In addition, there is another thing that Kong Jie found out. In order to finally wipe out the battle plan, Okamura, an old devil, was secretly deploying a big move in an attempt to completely destroy the security forces in the Shanxi and Shandong defense zones. of exchange.
After so many years of completely isolating the Eighth Route Army and gradually infiltrating some security forces, a large number of informants were inserted secretly.
The Japanese army also wanted to keep this highly confidential so that the Eighth Route Army would not notice it. The troops from the two sides were gradually exchanged, and they could not conduct large-scale exchanges at once, so it would naturally take a lot of time.
..."So, fight!"
"Those who strike last will inevitably fall into passivity. After this winter counterattack and the subsequent series of battles, although we won the battle, with the expansion of the base area and the expansion of resources, if the entire army wants to regain stability, it will inevitably It will take a period of integration.
The Japanese army obviously figured this out.
In addition, since the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese troops occupying major transportation arteries and counties and towns are, on the whole, far stronger than our Eighth Route Army troops.
Therefore, our Eighth Route Army has been fighting the Japanese army behind enemy lines, mainly on defense.
If the Japanese army does not carry out mopping up operations, we can often only engage in smaller-scale guerrilla warfare and harassment warfare.
If the little devil is preconceived at the moment, he is most likely to think so, thinking that after we win this battle, we will stay in the base area to further consolidate the development of the base area.
In addition, the Japanese army has recently strengthened the blockade of our base areas and built a large number of concrete strongholds and blockades.
At this time, news came out of a collective military wedding in our base area, and the entire base area was filled with joy.
This does not seem to anyone to be a sign of a sudden military attack. "
The conversation changed. On the 23rd, two days before the collective military wedding, at a military meeting held at the brigade headquarters, Kong Jie continued:
"Soldiers, this is a tricky way! The more this little devil can't think of anything, the more we have to take action suddenly at this time to catch him off guard."
"Brigadier Commander, after this period of intelligence research, we can basically determine that around the 25th, the Japanese army's theater defense change operation will enter the most critical moment.
According to our multi-faceted investigations, the Japanese have divided the Shandong and Shanxi security forces into three batches this time.
Generally, the security forces of the Japanese in Shanxi are first secretly transferred to the Shandong area, and then the security forces of the Shandong area are transferred to Shanxi.
After analysis, we found that there was a gap of about two days.
In other words, as long as we can seize this gap, we will take the opportunity to attack the Japanese troops in Shanxi. At this time, the Japanese security forces in Shanxi, which have just changed defenses, lack 1/3 of the troops that were temporarily transferred. The defense was completely empty of troops. "
"So, as long as the mass military wedding scheduled for the 25th can successfully paralyze the Japanese army, we can completely conceal the situation and secretly mobilize the main force to take the initiative to launch military operations against the Japanese army and completely disrupt the Japanese army's overall deployment.
After all, we must turn passivity into initiative. We would rather take the initiative to attack and lead the little devil by the nose, but we must not sit back and wait for the little devil's final method to unfold! "
After Kong Jie finished speaking, the generals fell into thinking.
The brigade commander broke the silence with a smile: "Kong Jie, your young man's vision for strategic analysis has indeed improved a lot!
When discussing this matter at the headquarters, what you just said is basically the same as what our deputy chief of staff said. "
"Brigadier, what do you mean by the deputy chief of staff, the target of our attack this time is Licheng?" Kong Jie asked.
"Yes, it's Licheng." The brigade commander nodded, becoming more and more surprised that Kong Jie and the deputy chief of staff really thought of going together.
Kong Jie said happily: "Licheng is great! Not long ago, our main force besieged Licheng from all sides. The little devils were so scared that they mobilized troops from all sides, and I almost lost my temper.
This time we gathered heavy troops to attack Licheng again, and even defeated Licheng in one fell swoop. Once successful, it can be said that the Japanese will no longer have any face at all.
We can also further demonstrate the strength of our Eighth Route Army to representatives of various countries.
In addition, Licheng County has a unique terrain, surrounded by mountains on all sides. The county itself is low-lying and is very suitable for siege. As long as we can cut off the main transportation lines on all sides, Licheng will basically be a dead city.
Next, whether it is to surround the spot to call for reinforcements or to catch a turtle in a urn, it will be much easier! "
"Maybe we can have another Xiangtangpu ambush battle!"
…
Some people died, but not completely...
