Chapter 329: Work hard quietly, and then surprise everyone!
Not only the boss, but also the chief of staff and division commander looked at Li Yunlong in surprise.
What kind of culture does Li Yunlong have that we, the leaders, don’t know yet?
I have attended private school for two years and never attended a military school. My education level is only enough to read a map and cover tactics theory.
What do you, Li Yunlong, look like with a green onion stuck in a pig's nose?
Contrary to the expectations of several leaders, Li Yunlong said seriously: "The so-called ax tactic theory is the opposite of the refueling tactic. Concentrate superior forces to hit the weak point, highlight a sudden and rapid point, and kill the enemy's weak point in a short time. of vitality.”
These are all theories learned in "Large Corps and Deep Operations".
Of course, Li Yunlong has been on the battlefield for a long time and has experienced hundreds of battles. He will never mechanically apply a set of theories. Every battle must be based on the actual situation.
In the past, Li Yunlong would probably choose the hardest bone to gnaw on, which was the 2nd Guards Division with the strongest combat effectiveness.
The Emperor's Guards, what I'm fighting is the Emperor's Guards.
However, after studying the "Theory of Large Corps and Deep Operations", I discovered that guerrilla warfare is very different from large corps operations.
Guerrilla warfare involving thousands of people is considered large-scale, but large-scale corps operations can range from tens of thousands to tens to millions.
In guerrilla warfare, fight if you can, and run if you can't; but in large-scale corps warfare, once the war breaks out, you will either fight or run when you want, or you will have to fight the enemy to the end.
Because once there is a problem in a certain aspect of the large corps's operations, it is likely to affect the whole body.
The boss nodded and thought carefully about Li Yunlong's words. This is similar to hitting a snake seven inches, breaking one point to shake the whole line. It is very similar but different.
The Chief of Staff and Commander Liu also looked thoughtful when they heard this.
The boss asked: "Go on, if you were to command the troops to fight the 37th Division, how would you choose to fight?"
Li Yunlong said: "I will command the troops to carry out breakthroughs in the entire depth of the enemy's battle configuration, carry out long-range ground and air attacks, and at the same time order the infantry to take coordinated actions against all defensive targets of the Japanese 37th Division, so that the 37th Division will collapse across the board."
"Long-range ground and air attacks?"
Commander Liu sounded confused: "The long-range ground attack should be the long-range attack of the 75 mountain artillery and 105 howitzer groups. How can you do the long-range attack in the air?"
"I don't want to hide anything from you, sir."
Li Yunlong said: "Starting from next month, my assistance channel will provide another opportunity for air support to our new regiment."
The chief of staff asked hurriedly: "Is it the same air support as the last Dawangou Battle?"
"Chief of Staff, your guess is correct."
Li Yunlong said with a proud tone: "Hey, there are a total of 40 aircraft, including 30 bombers and 10 fighter jets. They are called by radio and are on call. One air support is guaranteed to kill a Japanese wing."
Only Lao Li can call for such air support from the entire Eighth Route Army.
"That's ground-air coordinated operations," the boss said.
The boss, chief of staff and division commander all looked thoughtful. Although they had rich experience in commanding operations, they had never commanded ground-air coordinated operations.
"The leader is right." Li Yunlong nodded, "In addition to ground-air coordination, there are also infantry-artillery coordination, infantry-tank coordination, cavalry-artillery coordination, etc."
"In short, to defeat the Japanese 37th Division requires joint operations of multiple arms."
"On the basis of frontal assault, all arms carry out large-scale and deep attacks. During the breakthrough process, they must also encircle the enemy's flanks and conduct assaults on the enemy's rear."
"We cannot rely on the strength of one assault group army to win the victory in the theater. Instead, we must organize several assault group armies into one assault front army."
"And establish an assault group to attack in a centripetal direction."
"The success of the campaign, in addition to adequate logistical support, also depends on accurate calculations and proper organization of coordinated actions of various arms against the enemy's campaign configuration in all depths."
Captain Li Da talked eloquently.
Anyway, the Eighth Route Army has many capable men, so it’s not our turn to command such a big battle. The leader probably just wanted to hear his own opinion.
It just so happened that I had learned the theory of large-scale deep operations in the past two months. When the head of the headquarters asked me this question, I was not speechless.
At this time, the boss, chief of staff and division commander looked at Li Yunlong in disbelief.
Is this Li Yunlong?
Several leaders looked at each other and saw a hint of surprise in each other's eyes. Is this still the Li Yunlong we know?
Li Yunlong looked up and saw the weird expressions and eyes of the three leaders looking at him.
"Do you know how to fight with a large army?" the boss asked in an extremely surprised tone.
"I don't understand it very well, I have done some research." Li Yunlong smiled and said, "It is mainly theoretical and has not been practiced yet. It is just talking on paper."
Although he said that, several leaders could hear the modesty in Li Yunlong's words.
"Li Yunlong, where did you learn the combat theory of large corps?" the chief of staff asked curiously.
At present, in addition to teaching combat skills in domestic military academies, they also teach some theoretical knowledge and some basic skills in drawing and reading pictures.
The chief of staff, who had studied at the Frunze Academy, had never learned such detailed theoretical knowledge about a large corps.
"It's my assistance channel, that is, Chen Feng." Li Yunlong answered truthfully, "He gave me several military theory textbooks, including "The Theory of Large Depth Operations of Large Corps", "Rapid Assault of Armored Groups", "Searching for the Beach" "Landing and Airborne Operations", I have finished studying the first two books, and I am currently studying "Beach Landing and Airborne Operations". If the leaders also want to read it, I will send people to send all the books to the headquarters."
"We will see each other with admiration after three days of separation."
The division commander adjusted his glasses and said with a satisfied expression: "You kid has even learned the theory of large corps combat. Not bad, keep up the good work."
"Yes." Li Yunlong straightened up, "Sir!"
The boss said: "You can first get a few copies of the Border District Daily and send them to the headquarters. You can keep them for yourself."
After all, these military subjects are all military subjects that several leaders have never studied. It would be a lie to say that they are not interested.
Although they don't have that condition now, who can guarantee that one day in the future they won't be able to command dozens or millions of troops to engage in joint operations with multiple arms?
Too many skills don't overwhelm the body.
Li Yunlong replied: "Yes!"
Then, the boss showed an extremely interested look on his face: "Follow this idea and start talking about the specific strategies and tactics you want."
At present, Li Yunlong also did not hide his clumsiness. Based on the assault group army campaign based on the large corps combat theory, he gave an in-depth explanation from the two major aspects of campaign organization and campaign command.
Now there is just an imaginary enemy. The enemy's strength and defense are all imaginary, so what Li Yunlong said is more of a theoretical idea.
From the main direction of the assault, the width of the attack front, the organization of the deep assault, and the organization of the command, speak out your thoughts boldly.
Li Yunlong even boasted that in Haikou, according to this style of fighting, the Japanese 37th Division could be defeated or even wiped out in one day at most.
He felt that he didn't have to really give orders anyway, and he didn't have to pay taxes for bragging anyway.
Like the last battle of Dagouwan, commanding tens of thousands of people in combat was already the limit of a regiment commander.
If you allow yourself to be the leader of a regiment and command tens of thousands of people, isn't that just playing the piano indiscriminately?
However, Li Yunlong's tactical theory made the three leaders nod repeatedly.
Li Yunlong discussed with the three chiefs from afternoon to dark in the headquarters war room.
During this period, all the combat staff came to listen, and they all looked at Li Yunlong in disbelief.
Commander Li's knowledge of military theory is more solid than those of their combat staff.
Is this Captain Li?
It wasn't until dark that Li Yunlong and the Lijian Squadron had a bowl of pork noodles at the headquarters before driving the mule cart towards Yangcun.
Li Yunlong is self-aware, and if the discussion continues with just that little thing in his stomach, the secret will definitely be revealed.
He was ahead of several leaders in his research on "The Theory of Large Corps and Deep Operations" and "Rapid Assault of Armored Groups".
In terms of tactical command ability and military talent, he can't keep up with the three leaders.
…
Wait until Li Yunlong leads the sword squadron to leave.
Several leaders finished eating noodles and sat in the war room to discuss.
"Good guy." The boss looked at the chief of staff on the left, then at the division commander on the right, and said with satisfaction: "Li Yunlong, this guy is really hiding his secrets."
"I didn't expect it." The teacher praised him, "This kid was notorious for not liking to study, but now he has made such great progress."
The chief of staff also said: "This is called working hard quietly, learning secretly, and then becoming a blockbuster."
"It's just like our Eighth Route Army launching a Hundred Regiment War, secretly accumulating strength, and at some point, quietly delivering a heavy blow to the Japanese army, shocking everyone's jaws."
"The chief of staff's metaphor is very appropriate." The boss nodded, "The same goes for our counter-mopping up this time. The Japanese army must have thought that we would break into pieces and clear the country with strong walls like before. When the Japanese army started to mop up, our Eighth Route Army would use Punch hard and give the Japanese army a hard blow."
While speaking, the boss clenched his fist with his right hand and made a boxing motion forward. The movement was crisp and powerful.
After this winter's rest, the troops of the 129th Division have regained their strength. The troops have strengthened training and preparations for war, and the accumulated ammunition reserves are enough to fight a major battle.
However, it is only enough to fight one big battle, and there is no place to replenish it after the battle. The main reason is that the logistics supply is too poor. The Eighth Route Army's arsenal cannot make bullets, and its production capacity is limited. It can replenish the ammunition for the various units after the big battle. rare.
Because as soon as the war begins, attacks will be launched, reinforcements will be sent, and reinforcements will be harassed. Fighting will occur everywhere, and the ammunition consumed will definitely be massive.
With the current ammunition reserves of the 129th Division, it may fall into a period of weakness after this battle. However, letting Li Yunlong command the battle can perfectly solve this problem.
Reimbursement for the consumption of weapons and ammunition, plus the share captured.
As long as we can win this battle, we will definitely make a profit without losing any money.
The boss said: "With Li Yunlong's current military level and tactical command ability, even if we don't provide him with advice and give him 20,000 to 30,000 people, he can still defeat a three-unit Japanese division."
After a pause, the boss asked: "Do you two still have any objections to letting Li Yunlong command this battle?"
"No objection." The chief of staff and division commander said in unison.
"Then it's settled." The boss said firmly and firmly.
