1073 A team faces the main force of the Sixth Division
Of course, you can look down on your opponents strategically, but you must pay attention to your opponents tactically.
According to the consensus quickly reached by Kong Jie, Li Yunlong, and Ding Wei, when they entered the Iron Triangle Joint Defense Area this time, they had a lot of fat on their lips, the main ones being three big pieces.
This first area is the Japanese Sixth Field Division near Yangquan, which is gradually advancing towards the Iron Triangle Defense Area, especially the exposed secret aviation base.
The second block is the Niu Dao Man Division of the Kwantung Army that has entered the mountains inside Huangya Cave from the trail.
The third section is the Japanese 12th Army troops originally stationed in Shandong that were transferred to Shanxi and carried out raids against the Taihang base area.
"Three big pieces of fat, we Iron Triangle alone want to eat it in one bite. I'm afraid we don't have such a big appetite.
Naturally, reinforcements from various fraternal troops from our Taihang, including Taiyue, Zhongtiao Mountain and other base areas are indispensable.
Maybe it will be another large-scale joint operation.
Having said that, we can't just have three troops eating meat, while other brother troops can't even drink soup, right?
When the battle is over and there is a meeting at the headquarters, the old comrades should say that we are not interesting enough."
Kong Jie said with a smile.
Li Yunlong disagrees with this. He has his own principles and mottos:
"Let me tell you, Lao Li, the one who is capable eats meat, but the one who is incompetent doesn't even think about the soup. Who can blame him if he can't drink the soup? It's all his own fault.
This time the Japanese have launched a large-scale raid. There are raiding troops everywhere. You can eat meat with your eyes closed. If you can still starve yourself, I think you should stop leading troops to fight and go home to take care of your children!" Ding Wei thought: "Although our three troops do not have such a big appetite to eat up the three main forces of the Japanese in one go.
However, our three teams took the lead in launching the final major counterattack against the Japanese Sixth Field Fighter Regiment, Ushijima Manchu Regiment, and the 12th Army.
This can still be considered!"
What is this called?
We can't finish all the battles, but we must do the most spectacular thing.
Then discuss the specific deployment.
Li Yunlong's troops and defense area are between Shexian County and Xiyang.
Ding Wei's territory is between Shouyang and Yangquan.
Kong Jie's territory is in the Yangquan and Jingxing areas.
Kong Jie clearly pointed out: "This time Lao Li and I went to Yan'an to report and secretly returned to the base area. In fact, we came back to the Japanese Sixth Field Division, which was rushing straight into our iron triangle defense zone.
Lao Ding, Lao Li, look, this is the specific defense area position of our three regiments shown on the map, as well as the relevant areas that the extended defense line can involve.
The current main force of the Japanese Sixth Field Division is probably at this location. Lured by the secret aviation base of our first team, this little devil is gradually getting deeper.
It won't be long before we arrive at our expected ambush area.
Wait until the main force of the Japs arrives at our preset combat area.
Lao Ding, your new second regiment, I think, will directly cut off the railway and highway lines from Shouyang to Yangquan.
My team is responsible for cutting off the highway and railway lines from Yangquan to Jingxing.
Lao Li's New Second Regiment is responsible for cutting off the retreat of the Japanese Sixth Division from Xiyang to Licheng.
These three routes are equivalent to directly putting the Japanese Sixth Division into the pocket. The Japanese reinforcements cannot get in, and the Japanese who were ambushed by us cannot withdraw even if they want to withdraw.
With a large amount of baggage, artillery and mechanized troops, the Japanese can't go through the mountains, right?
At this time, Lao Ding, our two mobile units can first clean up the main force of the Sixth Division that is sweeping towards our secret airport from Yangquan. After defeating them, the only way for the Japanese to retreat from our encirclement is
There is only the direction towards Yangquan.
As soon as the little devils retreated, the huge gap in the defense line immediately appeared, giving us another opportunity. We can quickly cross to Xiyang, join Lao Li's blocking force, and launch an offensive towards the Licheng area.
At the same time, it can also support our deployment in the five cities around Licheng to build slaughterhouses, where fierce fighting continues and has been containing the Japanese combat troops."
Ding Wei nodded, agreeing with Kong Jie's play style.
"According to this strategy, we will concentrate the main force of our three-pronged troops to deal with the Japanese Sixth Division. This old devil Guancun should feel lucky for this. We have given him enough face and attention.
But in this way, after our main force is dispatched from the defense zone, we may have to think more about the defense issues in the core area of the defense zone."
Kong Jie smiled and said: "I have also considered this.
Our detachment has already made contact with the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei base area, and the commander said that he will reinforce the main force of at least five of our regiments to help guard against Japanese sneak attacks."
Ding Weidao: "Lao Kong, you are really well prepared, so our new regiment can only ask the fraternal troops of the 386th Brigade to help defend.
After all, one of the main forces of my new regiment has to attack, and the other has to support the battle in Liao County. The force that I thought was not too small at first, huh, suddenly feels that it is not enough."
Li Yunlong said happily: "Haha, Old Ding, your troops are not enough. In the final analysis, you are the leader who is incompetent and has not developed enough.
I am not bragging to you, but the entire New Second Regiment, even if we only consider the combatants, can provide you with more than a dozen battalions, or a dozen large battalions with a strength of more than 500 people.
This time I can not only send troops to intercept the Sixth Division's retreat, but also have excess reserves to support other places where crises may arise!"
When Li Yunlong mentioned this, Ding Wei also mentioned it, "Old Li, I remembered it when you mentioned it.
I have heard during this time that you, Lao Li, are recruiting troops everywhere. On the one hand, you are leading mobile troops to fight in the western Mongolia area, and on the other hand, the New Second Regiment is not idle yet.
Comrades from the local army, including militia comrades, and even comrades from the guerrilla forces, a lot of troops have been absorbed by your New Second Regiment.
Lao Li, what do you want to do?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
You must know that our general goal of improving our troops and streamlining our administration is not over yet!"
"Hahaha——"
Li Yunlong said happily: "How can a living person suffocate to death? Old Ding, Old Ding, when did you become so real?
The reason for improving the army and simplifying the administration is because the army lacks supplies. He has no food and water. If the army is not refined and the administration is simplified, the soldiers will starve to death. The only way is to streamline the army and simplify the administration.
But you can ask about the current situation of our new second regiment. Let alone the existing expanded troops, even if we double the strength, we, Lao Li, still cannot let the soldiers starve.
Hehe, we have such a big pot, why don’t you let us put in so much rice?”
Ding Wei was unconvinced and said: "Old Li, you are not afraid of flashing your tongue when you speak big words. How can you support so many troops?"
"Because we, Old Li, are the second-in-command of Huasheng Company!" Li Yunlong said cheerfully.
Ding Wei: "..."
"I'm still the third in command!"
Cough cough cough - Kong Jie on the side coughed a few times but did not speak. Li Yunlong, who was originally like a big-tailed wolf, and Ding Wei, who was like a proud big rooster, immediately stopped.
"Come on, Lao Li, let's stop bragging about the second-in-command and the third-in-command here. Lao Kong, the second-in-command, didn't even say anything!"
Kong Jie smiled and said: "Old Li, Old Ding, I wanted to have a good discussion with my old comrades about this matter.
Nowadays, our base area is developing well, especially in terms of economic construction. It is not as lacking in materials as it was in the past. The troops are so poor that they can't even fill their stomachs.
But to be honest, our Third Route Army cannot be too special.
You said that a conventional Type-A combat regiment only has more than 2,000 troops, but you, Lao Li, have six to seven thousand troops in one regiment.
What do you want to do, Mr. Li?
Can you be a teacher?
As for Lao Ding, although you don’t say it, we all know in our hearts that the current strength of your new regiment is probably no smaller than that of the new second regiment!
If this continues, I'm afraid that at the next meeting, the other group leaders will have opinions. These are all still a group, so why do the Iron Triangle and their groups become so strong that they don't look like a group at all?" Li Yunlong said happily: "Why? Because we have this ability and the ability, they can also develop the team!"
"Speaking of which..."
Li Yunlong looked at Kong Jie with great disdain and said: "To say that a regiment is not like a regiment, and a brigade is not like a brigade, holding the position of regiment leader, controlling the detachment leader's heart, and directing the division commander's battles is the most outrageous.
It has to be you, Lao Kong.
Tell me, we all came from the same class back then. When you, Mr. Kong, first joined the army, we, Mr. Li, had been veterans for several months.
They are all old comrades who have worked hard in the trenches and have been mixed up in the Iron Triangle circle. Why do you, Lao Kong, do something special? Has this original independent regiment been expanded into a detachment?" p>
"That's right!" Ding Wei, who has always been unwilling to be left behind, echoed with a serious look on his face: "If you ask me, your independent group of Lao Kong has become a team, and Lao Li's team should also expand into one.
The detachment is.
I think our new regiment should be expanded into the Second Independent Detachment of Northwestern Shanxi.
As for Lao Li, your new second regiment will be reorganized into the third independent detachment of Northwestern Shanxi."
Li Yunlong suddenly became unhappy: "Hey, why did you Ding Big Nose run in front of our old Li? This second team should also belong to my new second team."
Ding Weidao: "Come on, Lao Li, when your new second regiment was established, my new regiment has been the main force for many years!"
It's okay not to mention this issue, but Li Yunlong doesn't get angry at all when he mentions it:
"Old Ding, you are so stupid, you have the nerve to say that I finally brought the new group out with great difficulty, but in the end it was an advantage for you!"
Kong Jie interrupted the two of them and said: "Come on, Lao Li, Lao Ding, you guys should stop complaining. I'm not in charge of this matter. If I were the boss, let alone bring you two together."
It has been expanded into a detachment. Even if you want to expand into a column, I have no objection!
How capable Lao Li and Lao Ding are. If they can command a detachment or even a column, isn't that something they can do with ease?"
"Haha, Lao Kong, you still listen to what you say!" Li Yunlong said happily.
Then let’s talk about the main issue of advancing the Sixth Division.
Li Yunlong and Ding Wei knew very well that so far, although the Sixth Division had suffered a lot of casualties while advancing towards the Iron Triangle defense zone, it was not enough to shake the foundation of the Sixth Division.
As an elite field division of the Japanese army, even excluding non-combatants, the Sixth Field Division led by Guancun, an old man, still has more than 20,000 elite combatants.
Eliminate the losses suffered by the Sixth Division during its advance.
Considering that the Sixth Division, under pressure from the Japanese North China Headquarters, headed straight for the secret aviation base exposed by the first team.
The main force invested by the Japanese in this battle to destroy a secret aviation base and destroy the Eighth Route Army aviation force can be said to be the core force of the Sixth Division.
According to Ding Wei's judgment: "There must be at least tens of thousands of elites!"
After all, the old comrades-in-arms are the ones who feel most sorry for them.
"Lao Kong, your team is under a lot of pressure!"
In fact, Ding Wei and Li Yunlong knew this very well. The nearly 10,000 main troops of the Sixth Division went straight to the first team's defense area, even if they were tempted by the fake airport trap deliberately set by Kong Jie.
It is not easy to kill this elite Japanese army.
Not to mention that at the same time as the Japs’ elite advance, various Japanese reinforcements can arrive at any time, and the Japs’ aerial firepower reinforcements will definitely follow up.
Don't look at Li Yunlong and Ding Wei when they are bragging, they don't let anyone, each one is more capable than the other.
In the past six months, both Ding Wei's new group and Li Yunlong's new group have grown to a considerable extent.
But if you really face the elite main force of the Sixth Division, I'm afraid it won't be enough.
Therefore, the main force of the Sixth Division can only be left to the strongest team in the Iron Triangle.
Whether or not the main advancing force of the Japanese Sixth Field Division can be defeated is directly related to whether the final strategic goal of severely damaging or even annihilating the Sixth Division can be achieved under the joint operation of the Iron Triangle.
Even Lao Li, who always likes to brag, looks worried at this moment.
Ding Wei and Li Yunlong were even trying to imagine how they would conduct this battle with the ultimate goal of severely damaging or even annihilating the Sixth Division if they and Kong Jie switched places.
Lao Li, who has been exposed to many large-scale command operations in recent years, has to admit it.
When it comes to large-scale regimental battles, the petty fights and various ghost ideas in the past actually have little impact on the battle situation.
This involves overall planning and deployment issues.
This is the real warrior level!
Facing the worries of Li Yunlong and Ding Wei, Kong Jie smiled calmly: "Old Li, Old Ding, don't worry about this, you all still have battles that you are responsible for!
You two troops can't break through the Japanese defense line all the way and come to my team to help? Then I'm afraid there will be real chaos.
As for the specific question of how to direct it, you just have to decide.
If I, Kong Jie, don't have this ability, it can only mean that the captain of a team should be replaced!"
Li Yunlong and Ding Wei rarely remained silent.
The storm is coming, and even if they imagine standing in Kong Jie's position, both of them will feel great pressure...
