"It should be punished!" Yang Chengwu couldn't help but curse after reading the telegram!

"More than a thousand people marched under the Japanese's noses in broad daylight. Isn't that looking for explosion? It's not the first time he was dealing with the plane with Wang Ping and Cheng Xiao, so I don't believe that they don't know how powerful the plane is. I think they were blinded by victory and were so proud!"

"Think about the old team leaders and old political commissars in our district. Will they make such a low-level mistake?"

"More than 400 veterans died because of their mistakes and complacency, and it is not an exaggeration to shoot them!"

Xiong Botao quickly advised: "Commander, don't be angry. After all, Wang Ping and Cheng Xiao are just promoted regiment-level cadres and have no experience!"

"And they also destroyed more than a thousand Japanese and puppet troops and seized a large amount of equipment and ammunition. Otherwise, they would have given them a merit and demerit, and verbally criticized them and taught them a lesson. After all, they are all cadres who have made great contributions many times. If they really want to shoot them, you will not be willing to do so, commander!"

"No!" Yang Chengwu refused without hesitation, and an unprecedented serious expression appeared on his face.

"This is not inexperience, it is because of underestimating the enemy. If you win a battle, you must teach them a lesson, otherwise you will not be even more proud of them! You will suffer a big loss, so you must use this opportunity to teach them a good lesson and give them a lesson that you will never forget for life!"

"Then commander, what are you going to do to them!" Xiong Botao immediately asked.

"Go to the war room first!" Yang Chengwu walked directly to the war room.

After staring at the map for almost half a minute, he analyzed: "Wang Ping said in the telegram that the Japanese and puppet troops who had wiped out all the Japanese and puppet troops in this battle, plus the Japanese and puppet troops they destroyed when they destroyed the Japanese cavalry brigade, the Japanese army in Laiyuan have lost almost 3,000 people during this period!"

"The commander remembers it very clearly, but the Independent Regiment also paid a huge price for it, losing nearly two thousand people, and there would be nearly one thousand five hundred soldiers alone! If they hadn't had a large number of new recruits, the Independent Regiment would have been in name only." Xiong Botao answered immediately.

Then he continued with the idea of ​​saying good things to Wang Ping: "Now I admire Wang Ping a little. At that time, I didn't understand why Wang Ping recruited so many new recruits, and whether a newly established independent regiment had the strength to support so many new recruits. Now it seems that Wang Ping must have thought of this a long time ago."

"With these new recruits continuously replenish the troops, coupled with the experience of several consecutive battles, the independent regiment, which originally had the majority of new recruits, became veterans, and their combat effectiveness must have increased as well!"

"Although I have never seen this independent regiment, I judged from the combat experiences of the independent regiment that the combat effectiveness of the independent regiment is no less than that of the other three regiments in the military sub-district, and it is even possible for them."

"You know, with this seizure, all the artillery in the Independent Regiment can form an artillery battalion, and heavy machine guns can also form two companies!"

Yang Chengwu could see Xiong Botao’s inner thoughts at a glance.

But there is no interface, I keep staring at the map and continuing to analyze it.

"Deleting more than 3,000 people, there are only 7,000 Japanese and puppet troops left in Laiyuan City."

"Because they suffered several great losses in the hands of the Independent Regiment, once they decided to encircle and suppress the Independent Regiment and attack the Independent Regiment's garrison, the Japanese and puppet troops in Laiyuan City would have to dispatch at least twice the strength of the Independent Regiment, which is 5,000 people!"

"Chief of Staff, do you know what this means?"

Xiong Botao, who was only thinking about how to speak for Wang Ping, didn't think about this at all. Seeing the commander staring at him, a confused expression appeared on his face.

Yang Chengwu frowned and added: "Looking at the map, the Independent Regiment is located in the east of Laiyuan City, and our First Regiment happens to be stationed in the north of Laiyuan City. If the Japanese and puppet troops in Laiyuan City dispatched heavy troops to encircle and suppress the Independent Regiment, do you know what this means to our military sub-district?"

"Expand the base and seize the excellent fighter planes in Laiyuan City!"

"Even if you cannot defend Laiyuan City, you can take the weapons and ammunition that the Japanese army stockpiled in Laiyuan City as your own, that would be a huge gain!"

"The Independent Regiment seized so many good things in a small warehouse west of Laiyuan City. The ammunition depot in the center of the city must have reserved weapons and ammunition that we could not have imagined. If we can take it for ourselves, it will definitely greatly improve the combat effectiveness of the military sub-district!"

"So I plan to let the independent regiment and the main force of the military sub-district fight together!" Yang Cheng said astonishingly.

"Didn't the Japanese in Laiyuan City hate the Independent Regiment to the core? Then let the Independent Regiment continue to provoke them and force them to send heavy troops to encircle and suppress them. As long as the main force of the Japanese leave Laiyuan City, the military sub-district immediately dispatches at least two main regiments to attack Laiyuan City!"

"Feable!" Xiong Botao said affirmatively!

"The combat effectiveness of the independent regiment is there. If the Japanese want to wipe out them all, they must have enough strength!"

"After this battle, there were less than 5,000 Japanese soldiers in Laiyuan City, and there were still two thousand soldiers left in the Imperial Army. To be safe, they had to dispatch at least 4,000 Japanese soldiers and more than 1,000 Imperial Army to be sure to encircle and annihilate the Independent Regiment. If the troops were too small, there would be no force to encircle the Independent Regiment during the attack!"

"In this way, there are only less than 2,000 Japanese and puppet troops in Laiyuan City. Apart from the left-behind headquarters and the guards of major warehouses, it is already very good to be able to set up 1,500 people to defend the city wall. On average, there are only more than 300 Japanese and puppet troops in each direction!"

"As long as our offensive troops fight hard enough and the artillery fire completely suppresses them, they can enter Laiyuan City in two hours at a time!"

Yang Chengwu said: "When the time comes, the military sub-district artillery company will be transferred, and the siege time should be reduced to one hour!"

"And it takes five hours for the Japanese to march from the Independent Regiment to marching in Laiyuan City, which is enough for us to empty Laiyuan City!"

Xiong Botao immediately sighed: "Commander, this idea is good. Taking down Laiyuan City can not only shock the Japanese, but also seize a large amount of equipment and supplies. More importantly, it can also solve the dilemma of the Independent Regiment, killing three birds with one stone! I fully agree that the combat plan should be put into the military region immediately, and Commander Nie will be approved!"

"You go to the battle plan, I just need the result!" Yang Chengwu said affirmatively.

"If there is still time, I plan to go to the military region in person to report to Commander Nie!"

"Please rest assured, commander, I will give you the combat plan tomorrow!" Xiong Botao answered confidently.

Then he changed his mind and continued to plead for Wang Ping!

"In your combat plan, there will be a big battle to fight if the Independent Regiment doesn't take too long. Look, will the punishment of the Independent Regiment leader Wang Ping and the Political Commissar Cheng Xiao affect the next battle?"

Yang Chengwu's face suddenly returned to seriousness and replied unhappily: "If they can't stand it if they are punished at a little bit, then they might as well go home to farm as soon as possible!"

"Then commander, what are you going to do to them!" Xiong Botao knew that Yang Chengwu had made up his mind and could not even pull back ten horses.

"The leader of the regiment was demoted to the deputy regiment commander, the political commissar was demoted to the deputy political commissar, and temporarily acted as the leader of the independent regiment and the political commissar of the independent regiment. When the performance is good in the future, it will be recognized by the military sub-district and then resume its original position!" Yang Chengwu said with a serious face.

Chief of Staff Xiong Botao breathed a sigh of relief: "This punishment is good. It can not only teach them a lesson, suppress the independent regiment's idea of ​​underestimating the enemy, but also do not affect the combat effectiveness of the independent regiment."
