Fighting is difficult to say the least, but simple to say the least.
It is difficult to fight a war because there are too many uncertain factors. Sun Tzu's Art of War once said that the right time, right place, and the right people are indispensable.
In addition to this, the most important thing is the command ability of the generals and the combat ability of the soldiers. In addition, there are also some uncertain factors that suddenly appear in the war.
But fighting is simple, because it is actually just simple addition and subtraction.
If our combatants increase and the enemy's combatants decrease, our probability of victory will greatly increase.
For example, our army's order of battle originally only had one thousand men, and the enemy's number was also one thousand. But suddenly our army's reinforcements of one thousand men appeared. If we use two thousand men to fight the enemy's one thousand men, our chances of winning will be very high.
of big.
For another example, our army has one thousand people, and the enemy's number is also one thousand. But in a previous battle, our army destroyed 600 of the opponent's people, but our army is still at full strength. Then use another thousand
If someone goes to fight the enemy's 400 men, then the result of this battle can be imagined.
The Dragon Boat Festival took advantage of this, concentrating superior forces to annihilate part of the enemy, or even completely annihilate the enemy, putting the enemy at a disadvantage in terms of military strength.
If the enemy is an excellent commander, he will choose to retreat at this time to preserve his strength. But if he encounters an enemy commander who is not so smart, he will most likely be eaten directly by the Dragon Boat Festival.
The Dragon Boat Festival's tactics were, from a few points of view, precise and ruthless.
Seize the opportunity to strike with one fatal blow. Save your strength when it's time to save it, and when it's time to take action, go all out and never delay.
The same goes for today's battle. The Dragon Boat Festival not only needs to capture Dongping County, but also needs to mobilize the Bantian United Regiment from Ningyang County to fight. Otherwise, the Bantian United Regiment will huddle in the city and fight with him in street battles, so the loss of the independent regiment will be unknown.
How many are there.
Duanwu's mind was running rapidly. Originally, he wanted to eliminate the Japanese troops in the city after entering the city, and then deal with Wu Zhiwen's security team. That would be much more convenient.
Wu Zhiwen, that stupid pig, has no ability at all. He is useless except for being able to flatter others, bully men and dominate women, and change jobs very quickly.
But Duanwu then thought again, if the Japanese troops in the city were wiped out and Wu Zhiwen was left, I'm afraid Sakata would not send anyone to rescue him. After all, traitors are just cannon fodder in the eyes of the Japanese. Would Captain Sakata do that?
Risking the lives of the Japanese Imperial Army to save a few traitors?
Therefore, Duanwu quickly made adjustments, annihilating Wu Zhiwen's troops first, while the Japs surrounded them without fighting, forcing the Japs in Dongping County to constantly ask for help, and transferred the Bantian Regiment from Ningyang County.
"Report! The scouts found that the north gate of Dongping County is also broken. The gate is still there, but it is crooked on one side of the gate."
"Report, the extent of damage to the West City Gate has been investigated clearly. There is a hole on the right side of the two doors. The hole is about one meter high. A person can easily get through it."
At this moment, two signal soldiers came to report one after another.
Dragon Boat Festival fell into deep thought again, thinking: How were these two gates broken? This city gate is broken, don't the little devils know how to repair it? Or did they not have time to repair it?
He was thinking, but at this moment, another guard came to report: "Report to the regiment, we have caught a spy. He has been following us and was discovered by our sentry."
"Spy? It's really interesting that he can keep up with my team. Don't kill him. I have something to ask. We must know when he followed us, otherwise they may be exposed."
Duanwu sighed, because if Shangguan Zhibiao and others were exposed, then he would need to quickly return reinforcements, and ordered Shangguan Zhibiao to immediately detect whether there were any enemy troops nearby, and then retreat quickly.
And these are exactly the variables mentioned before the Dragon Boat Festival. On the battlefield, all kinds of accidents are endless.
When I was young, the guards escorted a blindfolded middle-aged man and pushed him in front of Duanwu.
And the middle-aged man was still explaining: "Brothers, brothers, I am such a good person!"
"You are so long-winded, sir. If you keep talking, I will kill you right now."
One of the guards scolded him and kicked him. The man jumped forward and almost fell to the ground.
Duanwu took a step forward, grabbed the opponent's shoulders and supported him. At this time, a guard took a flashlight and shined it on the opponent's face.
Duanwu pulled off the black cloth from the other party's eyes and said with a smile: "Old Ma, hahaha! Why are you here?"
"Ah? Brother Dragon Boat Festival?"
Ma Ping'an was also surprised. He didn't expect to encounter the Dragon Boat Festival in this wilderness.
"Hahaha, why are you running all over the mountain this late at night?"
Duanwu laughed loudly and then ordered the guards to untie him.
At this time, Ma Ping'an saw the soldiers around him and seemed to understand something, and said quickly: "Brother Duanwu, are you going to attack Dongping County?"
Duanwu nodded and said, "Yes, I have this plan."
Ma Pingan thought for a moment and said, "Can you help me save someone? To be honest, we have launched a rescue operation before, but it failed."
"Who is it?"
Duanwu said in surprise, because Ma Pingan's rank in the underground party is not low, and if he personally takes action, the opponent must not be an ordinary person.
Ma Pingan thought for a while, looked around again, pulled Duanwu aside and said: "Logically speaking, I shouldn't tell such secrets. But Brother Duanwu is not an outsider, I will tell you, this person is like this
,such,such,.”
Duanwu suddenly realized that this was the case. He just said, why did Ma Ping'an need to personally intervene to save a person? Moreover, Duanwu finally knew the reason why the north gate and west gate were broken. Just yesterday, the local guerrillas
A raid was launched in Dongping County, but it ended in failure.
The guerrillas sacrificed more than 30 people and injured more than a dozen, and could no longer carry out rescue operations. So Ma Pingan took over, activated the lurking personnel in the city, and tried to find a way to rescue the people.
But before Ma Ping'an arrived in Dongping County, he discovered a group of soldiers wearing the uniforms of the Third Army on the way in the night, and there were cavalry in the distance, and they were wearing clothes that looked like those of the Central Army.
So he came to take a look, but he didn't want to be discovered by the guards.
Fortunately, Ma Ping'an looked like an ordinary citizen, otherwise the guards would have wiped his neck directly, and Ma Ping'an would have nowhere to cry.
"Like this, the old rule is, if you provide information, I will provide people. When the time comes, the people will be rescued and given to you. But the things inside are all mine, hahaha!"
Duanwu burst out laughing, but Ma Pingan said like a wealthy man: "Brother Duanwu, the guerrillas have suffered a lot of losses. Look, the seams between your fingers are exposed, which is enough for us to eat."
Duanwu Xianggang pretended to be helpless and said: "Okay, when the time comes, you can choose the weapons first. By the way, how many people are there in the guerrillas?"
Ma Pingan chuckled and said: "Hehe, not many, less than two hundred people in total."
Duan Wu said magnanimously: "I will give each of them a gun, fifty rounds of ammunition, and twenty boxes of grenades. Is that interesting?"
Ma Ping'an said repeatedly: "It's funny, your Dragon Boat Festival brother didn't say anything. Come on, I will take you into the city right now."
"No, will you take me into the city?"
Duanwu was surprised, but at this time Ma Pingan said proudly: "Brother Duanwu, have you forgotten? I am familiar with Dongping County!"
