Seeing Li Yunlong whirring, Zhou Weihan glared and said, "Why are you so anxious? Li Yunlong, do you still look like a regimental leader?"
Seeing Zhou Weihan getting angry, Li Yunlong sat down again and muttered: "It's really overwhelming to be a senior official. If I hadn't always made mistakes, I would be a brigade commander now!"
"Chief Zhou, why don't I just listen to you? You can't put your little shoes on Lao Li behind your back!"
Everyone present smiled. Everyone had heard of Li Yunlong's glorious deeds. He was the commander of the regiment during the Long March of the Red Army, and he rose up and down from the position of regimental commander.
"Come on, Lao Li, if nothing else, I just said that when you were on the grassland, you sent troops to grab food, so it was good that you were not shot. Didn't you make too many mistakes? Do you still want to be a brigade commander?" Ding
Wei, an old comrade in arms, began to uncover Li Yunlong's background.
"Hey, Old Ding, you red lips and white teeth, don't slander people, I paid you back then! It's not against the rules to brag!" Li Yunlong became anxious when he heard what Ding Wei said.
You must know that the teacher's brother-in-law was accused of taking things belonging to local people and was sent to the army. As a result...
"Okay, let's get back to the topic! We currently have tens of thousands of troops on hand, and the strength comparison with the Japanese army is 20:1. The advantage is mine!" Zhou Weihan smoothly said the classic lines of the transportation team captain at this time.
The reason for the 20:1 troop strength ratio is that Zhou Weihan did not take the puppet army's garrison seriously at all.
"The attack on Handan is secondary. Even if we attack Handan, our Eighth Route Army will not be able to defend it! The main purpose is to take the opportunity to weaken the effective strength of the Japanese army." Zhou Weihan explained.
"A large-scale raid by our Eighth Route Army has indeed turned the little devil's ruling area upside down. According to the little devil's virtue, the next step must be to carry out a large-scale raid on our base area. Since the result is already determined, if
If we can beat the little devil harder, we can buy more time!" Ding Wei followed Zhou Weihan's words and said.
"So there are three things we need to do now: first, consume the effective strength of the Japanese army, second, store as much supplies as possible, and third, expand the depth of the base area!" Zhou Weihan said.
Everyone present nodded after hearing this.
"In the first step, Li Da's garrison regiment is active in Wuyi and Wu'an, the first section of the new regiment is at the junction of Licheng and Shexian, and the first section of the 28th regiment is at the junction of Lucheng and Licheng. These three areas are the headquarters of each regiment.
Once the battle begins in Handan City, the surrounding little devils will definitely provide reinforcements!"
"Then we won't be polite. Let them let go of the Japanese troops who sent reinforcements. After their strongholds are empty, they will successively pull out the Japanese strongholds around the base area and wipe out all the traitors and bullies in the Japanese-occupied areas." Zhou Weihan said
Plans in the heart.
"In this way, we will not only expand the depth of the base area, but also be able to accumulate a large amount of money and food!"
"Haha, this deal is done, no matter how you look at it, you won't lose money!" Li Yunlong was energetic again. The new regiment had four battalions left, and it was not easy to deal with some bullies and gentry.
"The second step is the issue of the main attack. Who will be the main attacker? Who will be the backup?"
After Zhou Weihan finished speaking, the four leaders of the independent detachment were okay and obeyed the arrangements without saying a word.
Li Yunlong grinned and said nothing. The Eighth Route Army values equality among officers and soldiers, but the army has always emphasized seniority.
In terms of seniority, Li Yunlong is more senior than the detachment leader Zhou Weihan, and Ding Wei and Xing Zhiguo are similar to him.
This is also the reason why Li Yunlong and Ding Wei call each other "Lao Zhou".
"Old Zhou, according to what I said before, it's not that difficult to fight Handan. You can't send six regiments here to keep an eye on it!" Ding Wei said.
"After my 28th Regiment was transferred to the 129th Division, I didn't have any results. So my 28th Regiment will not participate in the battle to attack Handan City. Let's allocate the task of providing reinforcements along the way!" Ding Wei said.
Zhou Weihan was in awe after hearing this. Ding Wei had his own plan in mind, but this plan was not selfish.
Within the Eighth Route Army, the troops responsible for the main attack are usually the main regiment, and those responsible for the main offensive mission also suffer the heaviest casualties.
The garrison strength in Handan City is empty, but there are a lot of supplies stored, which is not a good thing.
As for the reinforcement task, at least it faced a Japanese field brigade, which was too much for the 28th Regiment alone.
"The fourth and fourth regiments of the 28th Regiment are deployed in Ci County. They will first deal with the Japanese reinforcements south of Handan City and along the surrounding counties along the Ping-Han Railway. Then they will wait for an opportunity to ambush and dispatch reinforcements from the Japanese 35th Division!"
"The Japanese 35th Division is entrenched in the Jincheng, Kaifeng, and Shangqiu areas, and its division headquarters is in Jincheng. However, according to my speculation, part of the 35th Division in Jincheng has to defend against the National Army's Forty and New Fifth Army, and the Shanxi-Sui Army.
It is unlikely to be mobilized! It is very likely that a Japanese army in Kaifeng and Shangqiu will march west along the Longhai Railway to Zheng County, then turn north, pass through Xinxiang and Qi County along the Pinghan Road, and finally arrive in Anyang!"
"Fortunately, the Zhanghe Railway Bridge was blown up and the Japanese army had to cross the river by boat. Ding Wei, your 28th Regiment can start from this aspect!" Zhou Weihan analyzed.
"I understand, if we can contact the brothers of the independent guerrilla detachment on the Hebei-Shandong border to hide or blow up the ships in advance!" Ding Wei suggested.
Zhou Weihan looked at Xing Zhiguo: "Chief of Staff, after the meeting, contact the brother troops of the independent guerrilla detachment to see if this method is feasible!"
Xing Zhiguo nodded in response.
"The Japanese troops in the south have been dealt with, and the new regiment is in charge of the west. The new regiment is deployed in Wu'an. Like the 28th regiment, it will first deal with the small group of Japanese troops coming to help from the counties around the Handan-Chang Highway, and then wait for work to block those who may set off from Linfen.
Japanese Army!”
"Yes!" Li Yunlong pretended to stand up and saluted.
"The three regiments were deployed on both sides of the road from HD to Feixiang to ambush the Japanese troops coming for reinforcements from the surrounding counties in southern Hebei!"
"The first regiment attacks the north gate, the second regiment attacks the west gate and the train station, and the third regiment attacks the south gate and east gate! The cavalry battalion serves as a reserve, and the attack time is tomorrow at five o'clock!" Zhou Weihan finally said.
"Don't you need to surround three buildings?" Zhao Gang asked at this time.
"Surrounding Three Ques One, what if the little Japs in HD City destroy the supplies before they break out? What is important is speed. I plan to capture Handan City in two hours!" Zhou Weihan said in a decisive tone.
"In this way, if the reinforced Japanese troops retreat, won't they be unable to weaken the Japanese troops?" Zhao Gang continued to ask.
"Next step, the accompanying county brigade and militiamen put on their military uniforms, pretended to be the front line of the main force and pointed directly at the execution platform. The little Japanese couldn't help but come! The main force turned around to surround and annihilate the Japanese reinforcements!"
Everyone present was shocked by Zhou Weihan's generosity. Handan had not yet been defeated, but now they were thinking about the execution platform.
"If we attack during the day, we will have to guard against Japanese aircraft!" Xing Zhiguo said.
"There's nothing we can do about it. There will always be sacrifices. Haven't we all survived before? But from SJZ to Handan, no matter how fast the kid reacts, there is still two hours of siege time!" Li Yunlong said.
"Do you have any more questions?" Zhou Weihan asked.
