Chapter 140: Serving as a strategist for the brigade commander
The Jinsui Army observation group left, and the brigade commander was very satisfied with the battle, so he praised Zhou Weihan.
"You guys are really smart. When did you quietly organize such a special agent team?" The brigade commander smiled, his eyes narrowed to a slit.
"Brigadier, look what you said, this is not a special agent team. This is my newly formed reconnaissance company. The soldiers are all selected from the entire regiment in the last competition. It can barely be regarded as a commando team!" Zhou Weihan
explained.
"Let's not talk about whether it is a special agent team or not. Anyway, the people from the Shanxi-Sui Army observation group believed it. This outfit shocked them. I think our Commander Yan will be upset if he finds out!" Brigadier Commander
With a bad smile on his face, the more he tries to slander him, the more people from the Jinsui Army believe him.
Zhou Weihan knew that despite the seriousness of the brigade commander, he was not a vegetarian when he was young. He was also a powerful figure in Shanghai. In terms of posturing, the brigade commander was their ancestor.
The attire of the reconnaissance company was specially ordered by Zhou Weihan, and what could be better than the Yamamoto special agent team that just made Yan Laoxi sober in the world. When he has thoughts about the Eighth Route Army, he will definitely think of this knife hanging above his head.
Zhou Weihan saw that the brigade commander was in a good mood and said tentatively: "Brigadier Commander, you see that the small-scale battle is over now..."
"What's the matter? Do you have a large-scale combat plan?" Before Zhou Weihan could finish speaking, the brigade commander waved his hand to interrupt and said curiously.
When Zhou Weihan saw the brigade commander's interest, he quickly asked the monk to spread the map on the ground.
"Brigadier Commander, you see, we are now in Du Village. The Japanese troops in Changzi County who are reinforcing Shidu Town have been eaten by us. Several small Japanese strongholds in the surrounding areas have been removed by us. Currently, only An is still exchanging fire with our troops.
Reinforcements from Ze County." Zhou Weihan paused and looked up at the brigade commander.
"Keep going, I want to see what other tricks you have up your sleeve?" the brigade commander said with a smile.
"What I mean is not to retreat in a hurry. We are conducting a large-scale encirclement and reinforcements. The Little Japanese reinforcements have been sent out, but the firepower is not enough. I think we can use our new second regiment to supplement the battalion and the Anze Japanese reinforcements.
Taking the battlefield as the center, it induced the Japanese troops in Qinyuan, Tunliu and Changzi counties to take the initiative to attack and wait for an opportunity to annihilate some of them."
"I have deployed the first battalion to stay at Heijiakou, which is the only way to go south. Li Yunlong's new regiment can attract the Japanese troops of the eldest son on the northeast side of the eldest son, and Kong Jie's independent regiment can block the reinforcements from Qinyuan along the way." Zhou Weihan.
Said slowly.
"Zhou Weihan, you have a big appetite!"
"How many troops do you have on hand?"
"Reporting to the brigade commander, hehe, there are 1,200 people in the reserve battalion who have just left the battle in Shidu Town, 500 people in the supplementary battalion, less than 200 people in the guard company, and 80 people in this reconnaissance company. Of course, this is just the number before the war. It will definitely be during the battle.
There will be casualties."
"The question now is whether your supplementary battalion is up to the task of holding back the Japanese troops in Anze. Don't lose everything by then, which will be a loss."
"Brigadier, you can rest assured that I will leave the reconnaissance company behind to assist the supplementary battalion in containing the Japanese troops in Anze!"
"If it is true as you said, if the Japanese troops in the four counties of Anze, Qinyuan, Tunliu and Changzi fought, this battle can be regarded as a small battle."
"Brigadier, I can't guarantee anything else. As long as the little Japanese in the camp dare to come out, our New Second Regiment will ensure that they never come back." Zhou Weihan said, patting his chest.
"You are really capable. What you said is very in line with my wishes. You are like a dog-headed military advisor. Why is it that the brigade headquarters still lacks a chief of staff? I will apply to the headquarters to let you be the chief of staff?" the brigade commander said jokingly.
.
"No, brigade commander, I am just this three-axe, and it will be gone after I swing it!" When the brigade commander spoke, Zhou Weihan was greatly frightened.
If he really went to the brigade headquarters and didn't ask for instructions on everything, he wouldn't have as many combat opportunities as the regimental commander below.
"Look at your aggressiveness, it looks like it's going to kill you!"
"Have your telegraph operator send a report to the brigade headquarters. The 772nd and 18th regiments are marching to join Kong Jie's independent regiment. The 16th and 17th regiments are marching in the direction of Li Yunlong's new regiment. If you want to play, let's have a big one.
It doesn't matter if I just eat the Japanese troops in Tunliu, I want them all!" The brigade commander waved his hand domineeringly.
Zhou Weihan looked at the brigade commander in surprise.
"Why are you looking at me like this? I have long had such a plan. As long as we can eat the Japanese reinforcements, it will greatly increase the space for our 386 Brigade's activities. If the Japanese army sweeps the base area one day, there will be room for maneuver.
.
At the same time, we have closer ties with the Shanxi-Sui Army and the Central Army in southern Shanxi in the south."
"If we can really achieve the second goal and cut off the connection between Linfen and the Japanese army in Changzhi, our 386th Brigade will want to find a nail in the middle and kill three birds with one stone! Brigadier, you are so tall!" Zhou Weihan
It's just a rainbow fart.
In the entire Chinese battlefield, Shanxi's First Army had the hardest time. Although it had a strength of 120,000, the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army was raging in the belly. There was the Central Army in southern Shanxi and the first section of the Shanxi-Sui Army. Western Shanxi was a World War II zone.
From time to time, I still take care of Suiyuan, Chanan, and Northern Henan.
If the 386th Brigade could really defeat the main force of the Japanese army in the three prefectures this time, then this iron nail would have to break Yoshio Shinozuka's teeth.
The most elite one is the Japanese Eleventh Army, which is deployed along the Changsha and Wuhan lines and has been fighting against the Chinese army.
"I have to say, your strategic vision is pretty good!" The brigade commander glanced at Zhou Weihan approvingly.
The brigade commander left in a hurry. Although the battle plan was finalized, there was still more to be implemented.
"Captain, where should we go next?" Dong Jiang asked at this time.
"How is the cleaning of the battlefield going?"
"Don't worry, the little devil only has a shit ring left on him and not a single bullet casing left for them."
"Let all the captured puppet troops go, take the captured weapons and equipment with them, and burn all the food and supplies that cannot be taken away! Everyone forced a march to join the supplementary battalion!" Zhou Weihan said.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Huh?"
"Ah what? There is a big battle to be fought next, why do we need these burdens!"
"yes"
In the Qingxi Mountain area to the west of Shidu Town, the supplementary battalion of the New Second Regiment was exchanging fire with the Japanese troops reinforced by Anze.
"Reporting to the head of the regiment, my supplementary battalion is constantly blocking the reinforcing Japanese troops." Upon hearing Zhou Weihan's arrival, Wu Zixinghui, the commander of the first company, who was withdrawing to rest, reported.
"How's the battle going?"
"Captain, the reinforcements from the Japanese army include half a brigade. The five companies of our supplementary battalion have set up five ambush positions in the mountains along both sides of the road. The Japanese army is currently exchanging fire with three companies!"
"Where are the casualties?" Zhou Weihan asked with concern
"We did not fight head-on with the Japs, but at least a quarter of the troops we fought suffered casualties." Wu Zixing lowered his head and said sadly.
"Your supplementary battalion has just been established, and it is already very good to have such a record! As long as they have experienced this battle, the rest will be veterans who can fight hard." Zhou Weihan encouraged.
Zhou Weihan was already very satisfied that the supplementary battalion of more than 500 people could fight like this. Didn't Guo Wenzhi's 386th regiment also fight fiercely with half of Masao Nakamura's brigade in Taohuashan, causing heavy casualties?
However, the difference is that Guo Wenzhi has no way to retreat and has been beaten to his lair by the Japs. The supplementary battalion can take full advantage of the terrain and block the attack along the route.
"Dong Jiang, the reconnaissance company and the guard company are both here. The battlefield is under your unified command. Don't go head-to-head with the little devils. Your task is to contain the enemy, carry forward our guerrilla tactics, and make trouble in their belly. If necessary, you can ask
Chu Yunfei's 358th Regiment is retreating."
"Yes, leader."
Zhou Weihan left with only one guard squad, and the captured weapons and equipment, especially bullets and grenades, were replenished on the spot to the replenishment battalion.
Under Zhou Weihan's order, the reserve battalion had already marched in advance toward Heijakou, where the first battalion was located.
