In the early stage, the Japanese army was unprepared, and the second regiment's gains were pretty good.

However, as the confrontation lasted longer and longer, the Japanese army became more and more cautious.

In the next ten days, the second regiment made no gains.

The pressure on the logistics troops also began to increase, and Qin Dongsheng had to order a retreat.

"Commander, will there be any problems if the Second Regiment withdraws?" Yao Peng asked.

Just like a spring, if the pressure suddenly disappears, it will cause a rebound.

Yao Pengju was worried that the Japanese army would take advantage of the retreat of the Second Regiment and take the initiative to attack. After all, the Second Regiment did not have enough supplies now.

"Old Qin should have thought about the problem ahead," Zhao Zhiguo said.

Qin Dongsheng is considered a veteran. He has fought so many battles, so he naturally knows this truth.

"Inform Zhu Hao and ask him to take the Fourth Regiment to Qin Dongsheng and ask Qin Dongsheng to give them a plan of action for the Jinyang area."

After thinking for a moment, Zhao Zhiguo did not intend to give the Japanese army time to reflect.

If the little devil is allowed time to calm down and think about why Zhao Zhiguo did what he did, it will not be conducive to Zhao Zhiguo and the others' attack on Jinyang City.

And since we need to train troops, actual combat is the best way to train troops.

Zhu Hao also needs actual combat opportunities to learn how to become a qualified commander.

Zhao Zhiguo wanted to use wheel fighting this time to make the little devil tense up.

The Japanese troops in Jinyang actually did not expect that the Second Regiment would retreat on its own initiative.

Taking the initiative to retreat without taking advantage is definitely not Zhao Zhiguo's character.

The character of a troop is determined by the character of its commander.

In the past, when Zhao Zhiguo led his troops in battle, he would never let go of the little Japs until he took a bite out of them.

Now the troops are retreating on their own initiative, which makes the little devils a little uncomfortable.

But the little devil had just been relieved for two days when Zhu Haoyou led his troops to attack the border.

However, Zhu Hao did not launch an attack, but kept confronting the Japanese army. The Japs in Jinyang area immediately became tense again.

Of course, such a long-term confrontation is definitely not the final result.

Qin Dongsheng thought of a way for Zhu Hao. During the confrontation between the large forces, arrange a platoon of troops to take the initiative to harass the Japanese patrol troops.

"Lao Zhu, remember, the troops in action must withdraw from the battle within three minutes as soon as the gunshots are fired." Qin Dongsheng said.

After confronting the Japanese army for so long, Qin Dongsheng did not rush forward. What he was most worried about was that the Japanese army was using their strongholds or patrols as bait.

As long as Zhao Zhiguo's troops bite the hook, the large Japanese troops surrounding them will encircle them.

"Three minutes? Do you need one platoon to take action? Can't we just let one squad take action?"

Zhu Hao felt that they were fighting independently.

"When fighting, you can't just stare ahead, but also look to the left and right, you know?" Qin Dongsheng said.

Moreover, if the troops sent out have enough energy and redundant manpower, let them conduct a thorough reconnaissance of the surrounding area before making a decision.

When Qin Dongsheng and Zhu Hao were discussing how to deal with the Japanese and puppet troops in the Jinyang area, Zhao Zhiguo came to the headquarters of Zhao Ziming's regiment.

Since the reorganization of the troops, the troops remaining in Pingcheng have also made corresponding adjustments.

Zhao Ziming also left Pingcheng with his guard company and stationed himself in a nearby town.

Zhao Zhiguo planned to leave the task of besieging Pingcheng to the troops directly under the headquarters and add another regiment.

Of course, this regiment cannot be chosen from the three main regiments, but from one of the several regiments that have just been reorganized.

If they make up their mind to attack Jinyang City, Pingcheng will be very important to them.

The Japanese army also knew the art of war and knew how to surround Wei and rescue Zhao.

Jinyang City is in danger, and the Japanese army sends troops to attack Pingcheng, forcing Zhao Zhiguo's main force to return for reinforcements. This situation is not impossible, so Pingcheng must be adequately prepared.

"Brother, how are you doing here?"

The two brothers haven't seen each other for a long time.

"It's still the same as before, it's just that we have moved to another place to continue working." Zhao Ziming said, "It's just that the headquarters is much smaller than the headquarters in Pingcheng."

"I came here this time to see the troops. We all know that we are going to attack Jinyang City. The second regiment and your third regiment must be the main force." Zhao Zhiguo said.

The atmosphere has been heightened to this point, and it is impossible not to attack Jinyang City.

"That's a good relationship. Our group has been waiting for you to give orders."

Since the capture of Pingcheng, the troops have never participated in battles. Commanders at all levels of the Third Regiment even approached Zhao Ziming, asking Zhao Ziming to go to Zhao Zhiguo for an order to send them to the forefront.

"The third regiment is the main regiment and will definitely be involved in combat missions. Let's go and have a look at your headquarters."

Compared with Gao Cang's headquarters, Zhao Ziming's headquarters is more concise. There is no sand table, only combat maps.

There are some locations marked on the map, and Zhao Ziming is obviously preparing to attack Jinyang City.

Zhao Zhiguo stopped in front of the map, and Zhao Ziming quickly stepped forward to explain: "If we attack Jinyang, the second regiment will definitely advance from west to east. Our regiment will advance from Pingcheng to the south."

The two main regiments were divided into two groups to first remove all the Japanese military facilities in the Jinyang area.

The last two regiments met at the foot of Jinyang City, and then launched a general attack on Jinyang City.

Zhao Zhiguo picked up the pen from the table and marked a straight line on the map: "The Japanese and puppet troops have been moving around this line to prevent our troops from penetrating into Jinyang City."

Facing the oppression of Pingcheng, the Japanese army naturally thought of possible attack routes for Zhao Zhiguo's troops.

And be prepared on this route.

If there is any trouble in Zhao Zhiguo's troops, Jinyang City will definitely be able to respond in time.

"It seems impossible for us to reach Jinyang City quietly." Zhao Ziming said.

There are more than 10,000 regular troops, plus more than 20,000 militia troops to provide logistics. With so many troops operating at the same time, it is difficult to ensure concealment.

Moreover, there are a large number of Japanese strongholds along the way. Without destroying the Japanese and puppet troops along the way, it would be a fool's errand to attack Jinyang.

"I plan to divide the battle into three stages. The first stage is to dispatch an absolute number of main troops to quickly clear the Japanese strongholds and patrols in the Jinyang area with thunderous momentum." Zhao Zhiguo said.

As long as they are fast enough in the first stage, they will have less reliance on logistics.

Moreover, the price paid is relatively high. Even if the casualties are relatively high in the first stage, after the troops are withdrawn, soldiers can be replenished from the reserves in time.

After the troops regain their combat effectiveness in a short period of time, they can attack Jinyang City directly.

"What if the Japanese army takes the initiative to reinforce?" Zhao Ziming asked.

"If they dare to send reinforcements, no matter which direction they support, they will transfer troops from the other direction to fight the Japanese army in a decisive battle outside the city."
