At this point, Su Yingqi clicked on the map and said: "We can see this, and so can Noboru Kunizaki. Because this route is simply too obvious. As long as the Japanese army is not a fool, they can easily judge it.
Figure out our rough retreat route."
"And on this route, I had a rough look when we came here. Although the terrain of this route seems to be mostly flat, it is only most of it. There are still a few parts that are either highlands or depressions where ambush can be set up.
Although there aren’t many places, it definitely can’t be said that there aren’t any.”
"Although there are too many troops to hide, there is no problem in concealing the strength of the next brigade, or even a reinforced brigade. And our current strength, including the lightly wounded who can still fight, has been
There are less than four companies. In addition, we have to protect the retreat of the heavy artillery troops. If we encounter an ambush, we will have almost no power to fight back."
"So I said, the safer the route seems, the less we can choose it. Because what we can think of, the Japanese army can also think of. And no matter how safe the route is, without any support of troops behind us, it is impossible to choose it.
They are all equally dangerous."
"And if we were noticed by the Japs when we were dispatched, we would have had more time for them to make some conspiracy. Judging from the little Japs' battlefield reconnaissance capabilities, this possibility is not impossible, or even quite large. He
"Although the large forces have difficulties in moving due to air strikes." "But a small group of scouts went deep into our depth to conduct reconnaissance on us, but there was no problem. Moreover, because of the lack of strength of our army, there was no way to eliminate the Japanese scouts."
.Although the small group of Japanese scouts may not be able to figure out the true intentions of our army, they will not have any difficulty in figuring out our maneuvers."
"It is even possible that what alerted Kunisaki Noboru was not only his scout report, but also the mobilization actions of the Chief of Staff. Mobilization and deployment adjustments under the eyes of the enemy. If Noboru Kunisaki didn't notice at all, then
As a division commander, let alone a lieutenant general, he is not qualified to be a major."
"So I said, I'm afraid Kunizaki Noboru has been alert to our actions. But before we started fighting with the 28th Regiment, I'm afraid he didn't necessarily understand what we were going to do. But before we started fighting with the 28th Regiment,
After that, our tactical intentions are no longer secret, and other countries are bound to take action. And the front with half the strength has become his best choice."
"But even if Noboru Kunisaki wants to use our army to deploy half of its troops, the entire Aruhorqin Banner battlefield is empty of troops. This opportunity to sneak attack the 28th Regiment can break through our army's defense and go straight to the main battlefield of Linxi. But.
He also needs to beware of us stabbing him in the back after defeating the 28th Regiment."
"It's just that what I don't understand is why Noboru Kunizaki didn't send reinforcements to join the battlefield directly when our army was entangled with the 28th Regiment. In this way, our army is in a period of chaos, it is very likely that
We will be divided and surrounded by the Japanese army. Even if they add two more squadrons, it will be the last straw that breaks our back. At that time, we will be the ones who really steal the chicken but lose the rice."
"But why Kunizaki Noboru didn't take advantage of our army's chaos? It's because Kunizaki Noboru was too confident in the combat effectiveness of the 28th Regiment and believed that the 28th Regiment was definitely capable of inflicting heavy losses on our army. He mobilized some of his troops to attack our army.
Set up an ambush at the rear of the army, cut off our army's retreat, and defeat half of our troops comfortably."
"Or he didn't pay attention to the battle on the 28th Regiment's side before. His attention was attracted by the quite attractive results that the Chief of Staff might bring. This side is not the focus at all. He thinks that as long as our army
Just set up an ambush behind us and defeat the main force of our army."
"Although the reason is still unknown. But I am quite clear about one thing. No matter what the starting point of Kunizaki Noboru is or what his thoughts are, it is absolutely true that he mobilized troops in the rear of our army. Because he wants to be thorough
To defeat us forever and avoid future troubles, so as to eliminate any danger of being attacked from both front and rear."
"He just wants to break through to the Chief of Staff, but if they don't eat us, they might end up being attacked from both sides. He knows very well that if we know that he has launched an attack on Bala Chirud, we will have to
Full rescue. Because it is equally important to us there and now."
"Even with our current strength, we are still unable to pose a real threat to them on their flanks and rear. But our existence is still a danger to them after all. At least their logistics supply lines will be in danger. We are also
We can go south from the Kundu line and give the 26th Regiment in the middle a head-on attack to prevent the 26th Regiment from reinforcing the Bala Chirud battlefield."
"So Kunisaki Noboru must take advantage of this opportunity to at least annihilate us first, and then, with no worries about his future, he can concentrate all his troops on the front line of Balakirud. By then, they who have no worries about their future can concentrate on
Use all the troops to use their strength advantage to engage in close combat with our army to minimize the damage caused by our army's ground and air firepower."
"They haven't put in all their strength yet, so the Chief of Staff can still hold on for six to eight hours. If we are really annihilated by the 7th Division, Noboru Kunisaki will not have any worries. Only then can the Chief of Staff really
It's dangerous. His regiment's strength is trying to contend with two Japanese regiments. I'm afraid it will be amazing if it can last for four hours."
"It's hard to fight alone. As the Chief of Staff said, there is no tactical reserve, no mobile force, no depth of defense, no reserve force, and no continuous combat force. To defend such a large area, the Chief of Staff may not even have the force to launch a tactical counterattack.
No."
"Now the Japanese army is only pressing down on the 27th Regiment. If the 26th Regiment is added to the pressure, no matter how capable the Chief of Staff is, it will be a matter of time before the entire front is shaken. It's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice.
Not to mention the formation of troops on the battlefield."
"Now, as long as we exist, they will not be able to concentrate all their forces to deal with the Chief of Staff, and they will even have to leave a considerable amount of troops to protect their rear. So no matter whether Kunisaki Noboru is willing or not, he will find a way to eat us. So.
When we retreated, it can be said that it was their inevitable choice to take advantage of our eagerness to rescue Bala Chirud and set up an ambush in an effort to surround and annihilate us."
"They will naturally think that we will be worried about them setting up an ambush on our back road, so they will be very cautious in choosing a route. They will inevitably choose some flat routes as a retreat route to ensure safety. From Zagastanol
To Kundu, the route chosen by Commander Wang at least seems to be the safest."
"Because this is not only the farthest distance from the Japanese army on the center line, but also on the south bank of the Haihar River. The terrain is relatively flat. The Japanese army wants to set up an ambush circle here, and it is the most difficult to ambush us. So when we retreat, we take this route
It’s almost a sure thing.”
"According to the communication methods and regulations between the Japanese army, they will definitely know the battle situation on our side. Although they cannot accurately judge the number of our casualties, they will definitely have a rough judgment. He knows our current troop strength.
It has been weakened considerably. So if he sets up an ambush, choosing here is the most appropriate choice."
After Su Yingqi finished speaking, Chen Zhiping and the staff officer over there frowned. After thinking for a long time, the staff officer said: "Commander Su, what is the basis for you to think that the route designated by Commander Wang is unsafe? You always think that the route designated by Commander Wang is unsafe."
You cannot make this decision based on imagination or guesswork."
Su Yingqi responded neatly to the staff officer's question: "There is no basis, just intuition. When I was in the Fourth Red Army, I served as the captain of the vanguard company who led the way for the entire army for a whole year. Damn it.
It’s the sense of smell I developed when I was in the Western Route Army, passing through many dangers and walking back to Yan’an from the Qilian Mountains.”
"It depends on my understanding of the Japs when I was fighting guerrillas in the pass. The Japs are not as simple as you think. These bastards are not only cruel, but also very cunning. We will ambush them."
, they can fight just as well. And in ambush battles, they are no worse than us."
Su Yingqi's three reasons were so convincing that the staff officer nearby who was accustomed to analyzing and judging the enemy's situation from the enemy's situation, troop strength, and firepower was dumbfounded. After a while, he turned his attention to Chen Zhiping, hoping that he
This political commissar can say a word.
What he didn't expect was that Chen Zhiping over there thought for a moment and then said: "I support Lao Su's idea. In any case, we are bringing the wounded and heavy equipment, so it is better to be more cautious. Lao Su, what do you think we should do?"
What to do? You are the military commander, and I, the political commissar, support the decision you make."
Chen Zhiping's answer made the staff officer named Zhao Jun look at these two people speechless. What was going on with these two people? One of them had neither conducted battlefield reconnaissance nor any theoretical basis, and just relied on intuition to directly reject it.
Commander Wang's decision seems to have unconditional support.
Isn't this just a joke? Isn't this how the cadres transferred from Guan Guan carried out their superiors' orders on the battlefield inside Guan Guan? "The guerrilla habits are really unreasonable. Is this simply the style of banditry?" Zhao Jun was so angry.
I cursed secretly in my heart.
Although he did not want to go against Su Yingqi, Zhao Jun still insisted that since the commander had drawn a designated route, the troops should follow the commander's request when leaving the battlefield. No matter how good your reasons are, Su Yingqi must obey
Orders are still necessary. You can't just turn the tables on your side as soon as someone is sacrificed.
Regarding Zhao Jun's words, Su Yingqi rolled his eyes and said: "When the commander was dying, did he clearly say that we must go this way? How do you know that the route the commander drew on the map was to insist that we go
?Why can’t it be the commander who wants to tell us that we must not choose this route that seems to be the safest?”
"I said that you are young and have read many more books than me, an idiot like me. Why are you so stubborn? If the commander makes it clear, I, Su Yingqi, will carry it out regardless of whether he is here or not. Even so.
We know that we are going to die, but we soldiers must obey orders."
"But now the commander has not made it clear that we must take this route. So for the route drawn by the commander, I can understand that the route drawn by the commander with the last strength of his life is to let us not
Sneak into the little devil's trap."
"Since the commander is no longer here, I am now the highest military commander on the Zagastanor battlefield. I have the final say on how to proceed. How did you learn the three major disciplines and the eight points of attention? The first one is to obey your superiors.
Are the orders made for those of us below? Besides, you are a captain, and I am a major. Depending on your military rank, you should obey my orders."
