Xu San looked at the map and expressed his thoughts almost without thinking, "It's enough to make a lake, and there is indeed an eight-way road in Langcun. Last time I killed a few Taijun from Shengu Alliance, and they It's normal to seek revenge. If we had gone earlier, we might have caught a few. But it's been half a month, it's too late!"
"It's so perfunctory... Can't Taijun explain it?" He Yong expressed his concerns. The last time he abandoned the Japanese and ran away, he was criticized by the brigade commander.
Xu San stared at He Yong with an idiot look, "Last time you didn't deal with it and rushed directly into the encirclement of the Eighth Route Army. If Wang Hai had not discovered it earlier, half of our battalion would have had to answer."
He Yong sighed, thinking of that time he was scared. He was ambushed by a main force group. If Xu San hadn't decisively led the team into the forest, he might have been maimed.
"Let's talk about what you think." He Yong said.
He still wanted to hear Xu San's thoughts, because last time Xu San cut off his tail and escaped, although he was criticized by the puppet brigade commander, his other leader Yamamoto did not scold him, but instead talked about how to handle it at that time. correct.
He didn't react at the time, but after thinking about it carefully, he realized that the reason why he didn't scold him was probably to give Xu San face.
In fact, Yamamoto did not give Xu San face at that time. The reason why he did not curse was because judging from the battle report, the tactic of cutting off the tail to survive and protect the main force was completely correct.
But Yamamoto didn't expect that this battle was completely a drama directed by Xu San, a drama starring the county brigade and the independent troupe.
Although Li Yunlong was a big name and wanted a battalion of equipment for appearance fees, under Zhao Gang's adjustment, Xu San only used the equipment of a Japanese team (about 70 people) to get rid of him.
After this transaction, although Xu San did not meet Lao Li, he also had a preliminary understanding of Li Yunlong's rogue nature.
The current Japanese raids are not considered exhaustive. They can only be regarded as gradually encroaching on the Eighth Route Army's living space. They have not yet reached the stage of heavily attacking the Eighth Route Army's garrison.
Xu San estimated that they were waiting for the autumn harvest. They would not start the real sweep until the autumn harvest, because by then, they would not only be able to replenish their own food, but also cut off the Eighth Route Army's food supply.
The Eighth Route Army could also think of this problem, so it launched the Hundred Regiment War.
Counting the days, it’s almost here.
He Yong saw that Xu San seemed a little distracted, so he reminded him again.
"Battal Commander, I don't have anything good to do. As I said before, when the situation is not good, run away." Xu San said in a somewhat coping manner, because he couldn't be too conspicuous. If he did the same thing as last time, I guess Yamamoto The old fox will think of something.
He Yong took the toothbrush and felt that Xu San didn't say what he said.
"But it's always wrong to be timid before fighting," He Yong said.
"Hey, I'm talking about my battalion commander, my brother Yong. You are the battalion commander. Shouldn't this combat deployment be your business? I am just a quartermaster, in charge of weapons, ammunition, and logistics. If you still Isn’t it overstepping the boundaries to care about actual combat?”
"Don't tell me that, keep pretending to be a bear with me, and keep pretending to transfer you as a staff officer. Besides, it's not like you don't know how capable your brother Yong is, if I am capable, when the Japanese attack Ping An, I will still Can you surrender?"
emm, Xu San felt that there was something in He Yong's words, so he asked tentatively: "Brother Yong? If someone gave you advice at that time, would you resist?"
He Yong closed his mouth and was silent for a while, "There is a fool who is making suggestions, two weak staff officers, and a battalion deputy all want to surrender. If I persist in resisting, they will cut off my head as a token of surrender."
"Commissioner Song, Counselor Feng, and Adjutant Hao?" Xu San asked.
"It's not them. Let me tell you your opinion. Even if you plan to escape, you must have an escape plan." He Yong avoided this question, but Xu San, who was discerning, had already noticed some clues. The three who once advocated the surrender of the battalion level It seems that the cadres have been dealt with by He Yong.
"Okay, okay! Then let me explain."
Xu San picked up the lecture stick again as he spoke, and then drew a line on the map, "This area is Lao Yan's 357th and 358th regiments, so if we march from here, we will avoid Chu Yunfei's 358th regiment garrison. These two highlands. As for the two villages in this area, we will not move and go around them." Speaking of this, Xu San paused, "I guess Taijun will not take the initiative to touch Lao Yan. We swept the area, on the one hand to test and on the other hand to apply pressure."
"Is it for Zhongyang ZF?" He Yong asked.
Xu San nodded, "It's still these two villages. If the Taijun is too tight, just arrange a platoon to follow, but remember to try not to conflict with the villagers. The imperial army's target is the Eighth Route Army and food. If it can't be done, we can come up with it ourselves." Two to three hundred kilograms will be done in two lakes. If necessary, I will arrange this."
He Yong thought thoughtfully, and then nodded in agreement. Xu San's idea suited him very well, and he felt that if he paid a few hundred kilograms of grain to buy a safe meal, it would be really cheap.
"And here, you can't go there no matter what." Xu San said and drew a small circle on the map.
"Why?"
"This area is a plain, and this area is the defense area of the independent regiment." After speaking, Xu San drew another circle on the map.
"But the Independent Regiment is far away from here, and if his troops rush here, wouldn't it be..."
"Li Yunlong has a cavalry company, which is elite! Their combat radius is twenty kilometers with one person and one horse, which is forty miles. If they have two horses, the combat radius can be higher. So this plain is just in front of them Within the combat radius, our battalion is just a piece of fat for the independent regiment. If he doesn't take a bite, then he is not Li Yunlong."
"Li Yunlong's independent group is the same group that surrounded us last time, right?" He Yong asked thoughtfully.
"It should be. Although there is no clear information, the imperial army's staff analysis has a 70% chance that it is him."
He Yong stared at the map again for a while, and said with a bad expression, "Then his range of activities is too large. You see, this is his defense zone, and this is where we are surrounded." He picked up the measuring ruler. After measuring it, he said, "The straight-line distance is almost thirty kilometers, and his hand is stretched too far."
"There is a saying called tactical interposition if you are poor. Haven't you heard of it? It is precisely because of poverty that the Eighth Route Army is best at fighting this kind of mobile warfare. I asked you to promote Wang Hai as an instructor to deal with this kind of tactics of the Eighth Route Army." Xu San asked with a smile.
He Yong shook his head, "If you are poor... interspersed... I have never heard of it. It was written in any military book."
"It's not written in the military book. This is what I analyzed and concluded." Xu San said.
"Brother, have you fought many battles?" He Yong asked doubtfully.
"I'm Zhao Kuo, talking on paper."
