Japs are usually stationed in county towns.
The number of troops stationed in important counties can reach a brigade.
In order to ensure the smooth flow of railway transportation.
Large railway stations in counties along the Pinghan-Hankou Railway usually station a squadron of garrison troops and a company of puppet troops.
Small train stations are usually located near villages and towns, and a small team must be stationed there.
Regardless of whether the station is large or small, some people will be assigned to serve as instructors in the towers along the line.
Everyone has to sleep, and after being divided into two shifts, there is even less manpower.
In order to fight Xu Tieying, the Japanese stationed at the train station were naturally unable to move.
We can only mobilize troops from nearby counties overnight, as soon as the puppet soldiers and devils leave.
The intelligence agents arranged by the Eighth Route Army in the county immediately realized that the Japanese county was empty.
The opportunity is here.
The mission to rescue Patriarch Li failed. Combined with the mobilization of Japanese troops in HD City, a new combat plan was formed overnight.
Attack the Japanese railway transportation line!
A problem lies ahead. The Eighth Route Army sneaks behind enemy lines to fight guerrillas, and the scattered teams will not be able to gather them for a while.
Naturally, those who fight guerrillas have no fixed place. Today, they may be in a certain village.
After one night, it might be in another village fifty miles away.
In addition, the Japanese also realized that the Eighth Route Army entered the occupied areas in large numbers and strengthened the blockade.
Even the correspondent who sent the order could not find where the troops were.
It's ridiculously difficult to gather them together.
Wang Pengying, who had just evacuated from the east of HD City, received an order that the leaders of the three columns who had completed luring the enemy should return to northern Shaanxi for a meeting and study.
Minister Zhou temporarily took over the important task: "Order the Assault Regiment of the Autonomous Army and the First Guard Battalion to move west immediately and wait for an opportunity to destroy the Japanese Railway."
The independent regiment was stationed close to Anxian County and was also ordered to cooperate with a subdivision to destroy the Pinghan-Han Line railway line north of Anxian County.
The national army, which was driven to the south of the Yellow River by the Japanese, also caught wind of the situation, but unfortunately they had no soldiers.
The railway sabotage team of the Jiangbei Transportation Corps, which had been lurking along the railway, was ordered to do so at the critical moment.
Such a large-scale troop mobilization cannot be kept absolutely confidential.
The Japanese intelligence system was not a vegetarian, and it quickly figured out the movements of the Eighth Route Army. Unfortunately, the Shanxi Army and the main force of the First Army were transferred to Northern Mongolia some time ago.
For a time, he was in a situation where he had no troops to maneuver.
The commander of North China was so furious that his nose was crooked with anger. He had just cleaned up the national troops in the Central Plains.
Unexpectedly, the Eighth Route Army jumped out again. Unlike the mice in the mountains before, they actually started to openly give way to the street.
The Japanese General Staff has no choice. The only ones that can be mobilized now are the Puppet New Fifth Army and the 5th, 6th and 7th Armies of the Pangbu 24th Group Army, which are heading north.
Subsequently, the various ministries that received the order gathered near the railway line south of An County.
As for the remaining tasks of guarding the railway line from Anxian to HD, the Japanese immediately ordered the puppet troops garrisoned in nearby counties to directly transfer two-thirds of their troops to strengthen the defense along the railway line from Anxian to HD.
At the same time, additional armored trains from the north will be deployed for mobile patrol along the route.
Coincidentally.
The sky, which had been clear for more than a year, started to be covered with dark clouds in many places.
The order for the column is still on its way.
The puppet army set up an ambush in Qingsha tent.
Hu Yi is studying.
That's right, this man is holding a book with dense annotations in his hand and occasionally turns a page.
I really want to write two words in the book, but it’s a pity that the words are too crowded and I can’t find the space.
The correspondent kept sending in news of the reconnaissance, and Madman Yang was playing with the small sand table next to him.
"Why"
"Sir Hu"
"Can you?" Madman Yang pushed Hu Yi with a dark face: "Stop looking."
"What's going on?" Hu Yi wrapped the book in a cloth and put it in his pocket: "Tell me about it."
Luo Fugui next to him was shocked. Oh no, Boss Hu was led astray by Madman Yang and started reciting the Three-Character Sutra.
He silently recited the instructions in his heart: The Supreme Lord urgently ordered all monsters and ghosts to get out of here like a law.
it works!
"The Japanese transport team has really escaped, and the beaten puppet troops are cleaning the battlefield two miles to the north. As long as we block these small roads, the puppet troops in the north can only stare when they hear the gunshots." In the past, the Japanese were beaten. Madman Yang was motivated. He found that these puppet troops had not been beaten at all and had little energy at all. He pointed at the simple sand table and began to explain: "The heavy machine gun in the front fired two ammunition belts to suppress it. The two platoons divided into two groups and went around to the puppet troops. Poke him in the back."
"Finished?"
"Absolutely!" Madman Yang nodded: "The puppet army is nothing to worry about."
Hu Yi looked at the sand table.
His eyes turned to the Qing Shazhang not far away where the puppet troops were preparing to ambush the Ninth Battalion.
Madman Yang’s plan is not a plan at all
There is only a terrain force simulation, but there is nothing about troop allocation, who will attack, who will feign attack, reserves, firepower layout, timing of each unit's launch, how to capture prisoners.
However, there is really no need to deal with these puppet troops.
It is said that painting a tiger is not the opposite of a dog.
The puppet army seemed to be right. They chose Qingshazhang in advance for the ambush, which was a good location.
But there was an ambush in the middle of the day, and there were dense footprints on the ground. Could this be a surprise?
Let’s not talk about the weather, let’s talk about peace and harmony. The puppet army of less than a hundred people ambushed and the militiamen of more than 300 people were trapped in the door?
Guerrilla warfare is bound to be accompanied by mobile warfare. Can you ambush someone just by lying down in the sorghum bushes?
And you don’t even put a battlefield guard post outside the battlefield.
Are our ancestors, the Eighth Route Army, who fought guerrillas every day, really stupid?
A very ridiculous feeling came to his heart, making him dumbfounded.
Suddenly I remembered that I used to be a bearded robber. It seems that this is really how I played.
Find a place to insert a sign: I drove this road and planted this tree.
These puppet soldiers are definitely pretending to be stupid in their minds.
Hu Yi suddenly felt that killing these people seemed pointless because he was currently short of men.
This time we came here and suffered a lot of losses, more than 300 casualties and nearly two platoons!
The leader of the column pretended to be dead and refused to replenish his troops at all.
If you don’t give it to me, then you can catch it yourself!
Capture these puppet troops first, and then replace them with the column!
It's a pity that the girl is not here, she is the expert at doing this.
Come out this time.
I had several in-depth conversations with Director Lin, but I didn’t expect that this person actually came back from studying abroad in **.
He also gave him a book.
Pictures and texts.
Mechanized armored group.
Thousands of tanks battle.
Tens of thousands of cannons fired together.
Thousands of planes bombed
The warships were overwhelming, and just thinking about that scene made me tremble with excitement.
It was an eye-opener. It was my first time to come into contact with the concept of large corps fighting in clusters.
"Hey, battalion commander."
"Boss Hu?"
"Sir Hu?"
Hu Yi came to his senses.
After touching the book in Huli, he stood up and looked around majestically.
The commanders were full of expectations. It had been a long time since they had seen the battalion commander be so arrogant.
Hu Yi said: "Order, Luo Fugui's company will lead a platoon with heavy machine guns to fire from the front. When the fighting starts in the rear, lower the muzzle and shoot. Yang Chengzhi will lead a platoon to outflank and assault on the left. I will lead an assault on the right. The militia will serve as a reserve force."
"cut"
Eyes full of anticipation, the more than ten platoon sergeants and platoon officers surrounding him immediately had dark lines on their faces.
There was a murmur of boos.
Finally, someone couldn't help but mustered up the courage to ask: "Battalion Commander, you have been reading the book for so long. I thought I was going to hold back a big move, but I didn't expect it was a frontal assault and outflanking from both sides."
The warehouse was full of young people, and they didn't care about anything else. They led ten soldiers without talking or smiling.
Immediately set up machine gun positions in the ditches between the sorghum fields ahead.
Sacks already filled with soil were thrown to the ground.
There was no need to pile them up at all. In just one minute, eight sandbags were thrown on the ground and the machine gun positions were formed.
This skill is also a big skill, but you have to prepare sandbags in advance.
In the green gauze tent.
The puppet observer shouted: "Company commander, it's bad, the Eighth Route Army is setting up heavy machine guns."
The pseudo-company commander curled his lips: "What are you afraid of? We have dug trenches and individual soldier pits. If he knows how to ambush on the Eighth Route Army, don't we know how to do it?"
Participated in many raids, and had on-site explanations of Eight-Route ambush tactics by Imperial Army instructors.
Later, he also participated in independent mopping up operations. Once this ambush tactic was used, the Eighth Route guerrillas who had been driven away by the emperor were defeated.
The pseudo-company commander was full of confidence. Even if he couldn't be beaten, wouldn't he be able to run even if I had legs?
There are green gauze tents everywhere. If you find a place to sneak in, I don't believe you dare to chase them.
The ancients said: Don't enter the woods!
Tum-tum-tum.
While I was thinking, the heavy machine gun from the north started firing.
"Put your heads down, wait for them to come over, and then fire. Move closer and then attack." This trick is what the coward who caught the Eighth Route Army told him.
