The father of the sword is Kong Jie

Chapter 884 Plotting the Great Stronghold of Wanjia Town
... On the other side, Yang Zhongshan, who occupied the stronghold of Huting, was not idle either.

On the one hand, some additional troops were sent from the 57th regiment's garrison, and they brought a large amount of weapons, equipment and ammunition.

On the one hand, he ordered to hurry up and repair the destroyed fortifications of the Huting stronghold.

At the same time, Yang Chongshan specially invited some reporters dedicated to the Jinsui Army.

What are you doing?
He took photos and recorded the situation in the entire Huting stronghold, including how many little devils his 57th regiment had killed, a large number of dead devils as direct evidence, and some Eighth Route Army soldiers they killed, etc.

Of course, these so-called Eighth Route Army soldiers were replaced by the corpses of devils.

The officers of the Jinsui Army have done a lot of this kind of thing.

The intention is very clear.

It is to confirm to the outside world through the photos and reports of the reporters that it was indeed his 57th regiment who laid down the Huting stronghold.

In addition, Yang Chongshan specifically explained: "Old Qian, the battle this time was extremely tragic, and our troops suffered a lot of casualties, especially the loss of weapons and ammunition. These must be reported in advance, and the superiors will replenish them for us."

The deputy head Qian Shoucai had a tacit understanding with Yang Zhongshan in this regard, he replied: "Please rest assured, this matter is on me, this time we won such a big victory, not only took the devil's tiger Stopped at the stronghold and repelled the Eighth Route Army.

If Chief Yan heard about this, he would have to order a special award to reward the troupe.

In terms of the loss of equipment and ammunition in the regiment, the superior will definitely make up for it. "

Yang Zhongshan nodded, his smile became brighter and brighter.

In this way, Yang Chongshan gained his prestige, and led the 57th regiment to destroy the devil's Huting stronghold, and repelled Li Yunlong, the commander of the Eighth Route Army who has always been known for his bravery.

You can also take the opportunity to report the loss to your superiors at the same time, earning him a fortune.

In such a tragic battle, it should be reasonable to lose or be destroyed by the enemy dozens of artillery pieces, waste tens of thousands of bullets, and lose thousands of rifles, right?
In addition, the kind-hearted Captain Kong promised to return the batch of equipment that Li Yunlong had stolen within two weeks.

The more Yang Chongshan thought about it, the more complacent he became, and now he really became a winner in life.

Walking in the Huting stronghold, Yang Zhongshan and Qian Shoucai checked the situation of the fortifications in several directions of the Huting stronghold.

The two were quite emotional about this.

Qian Shoucai was amazed: "Tuan Zuo, look at these blockhouses and fortifications, they are basically made of special reinforced concrete structures.

This kind of structure is not generally strong. Even the shells of the mountain cannons in our artillery battalion may not be able to destroy it if they are directly bombarded on it.

But in the battle of the Eighth Route Army's attack on the Huting stronghold, they directly destroyed a large number of gun towers and bunkers built by the little devil with reinforced concrete structures.

This is really amazing, Tuan Zuo, the attacking firepower of these Tuba Roads is actually stronger than we imagined! "

"You can't be your enemy!"

Yang Chongshan took this very seriously, and was even more grateful in his heart for how wise he had made the choice not to be an enemy of the Eighth Route Army.

In a hurry, a self-deceiving arrogance rose in my heart:

So what if the Eighth Route Army is so powerful?
Wasn't he repelled by himself and took the Huting stronghold?

Qian Shoucai was worried about another thing: "Tuan Zuo, we first attacked Baiyang Town of the Japanese, and then occupied this Huting stronghold, won't we really annoy the Japanese army?"

Regarding this, Yang Zhongshan waved his hands confidently: "Old Qian, just put your heart in your stomach.

To take down Baiyang Town, this is because we took advantage of the fire to loot, and followed the Eighth Route Army to rub some oil and water. The main hatred of the little devils is on the Eighth Route Army, and it is not our turn.

As for the Huting stronghold, we snatched it from the Eighth Route Army who took down the Huting stronghold, at best we picked the peaches of the Eighth Route Army.

What does it have to do with his little devil?
During this period of time, the Japanese army has had a headache dealing with the increasingly powerful Eighth Route Army troops, especially the several regiments of the Iron Triangle in Northwest Shanxi, and the little devils they have engaged in have been battered.

The devils now wish that we would stand by and watch, and it is absolutely impossible to provoke our Jinsui Army and force us to stand on the same front with the Eighth Route Army! "

In this regard, Yang Zhongshan thought he was very clear.

Qian Shoucai admired: "The group is wise!"

With the passage of time, the news that the Huting stronghold was captured by the New Second Regiment of the Eighth Route Army, and then seized by the 57th Regiment of the Jinsui Army took the opportunity, after the news spread rapidly...

The forces of all parties are actually a little confused.

The Japanese army finally decided to use their tactics to make a big fuss by using the news that the 57th regiment repelled the Eighth Route Army in an attempt to intensify the conflict between the Eighth Route Army and the Jinsui Army.

Therefore, under the fuel of the propaganda department of the Japanese army.

The news that Li Yunlong led the new second regiment to attack the Huting stronghold at night, but there is no news that the 57th regiment of the Jinsui Army repelled the new second regiment of the Eighth Route Army, so explosive!
After the news spread, the morale of many units of the Jinsui Army was indeed boosted.

It is said that Yan Laoxi, who heard the news, laughed from ear to ear in the headquarters.

The 358th regiment of the Jinsui Army.

After the news came, Fang Ligong, the chief of staff, was full of amazement. He was still holding a newspaper in his hand, which contained the latest report issued by the war reporters of the Jinsui Army.

"Sir, we underestimated the 57th Regiment. We thought that the 57th Regiment had only grown in strength and equipment over the years, but we didn't expect that the fighting power would be so great.

What a powerful team the New Second Regiment led by Li Yunlong was to be repelled by Yang Zhongshan and even robbed the Huting stronghold! "

"Balu has suffered a great loss this time! The 57th Regiment has made a name for itself this time, and even Commander Yan has ordered that Yang Chongshan be specially commended!"

Chu Yunfei didn't have a temperament of jealousy and envy, but he said:
"Brother Li Gong, this matter is very strange, let's not talk about it, as far as we know, what kind of team is this 57th regiment, how could it be Li Yunlong's opponent.

Although these words are a bit like destroying one's own prestige and boosting others' aspirations, you and I know very well that this is the truth.

In addition, I specially sent someone to investigate this matter. According to the combat situation that night, Li Yunlong led the New Second Regiment to suddenly attack the Huting stronghold, and it took nearly an hour to take down the Huting stronghold.

It was almost dawn at this time, and then, the combat troops of the 57th regiment arrived suddenly as if they had received definite news.

There was an exchange of fire between the two sides, and the time before and after definitely did not exceed 10 minutes.

After dawn, the entire Huting stronghold fell into the hands of the 57th regiment. "

Chu Yunfei's words paused: "In less than 20 minutes, can the 57th Regiment completely defeat the team led by Li Yunlong?
Based on what you and I know about Li Yunlong, would he be so willing to throw the Huting stronghold, which he had finally captured, to the 57th regiment? "

"Tuan Zuo, are you suspicious of this..."

"It's not a suspicion, but a certainty that there must be tricks in it."

Chu Yunfei said firmly, "Then Li Yunlong is a very shrewd guy. He knows very well that even if the New Second Regiment takes down the Huting stronghold, the military use of the Huting stronghold is very important to the Japanese army, and it is absolutely impossible to sit idly by. The Ting stronghold fell into the hands of the Eighth Route Army.

Therefore, the Japanese army will definitely recapture the Huting stronghold.

It is not so easy for the Eighth Route Army to firmly occupy the Huting stronghold. "

Fang Ligong nodded, "It's just that, doesn't this also show that the confrontation between the Eighth Route Army and the 57th Regiment was not a deadly battle.

Perhaps the Eighth Route Army also understood that the Huting stronghold could not be held for long, so they simply lost it to the 57th regiment?

After all, for the Eighth Route Army, it is better for the Huting stronghold to be in the hands of our Jinsui Army than in the hands of the Japanese Army.

So in the final analysis, it can only be said that Yang Zhongshan was lucky, and he picked up a bargain for nothing! "

Chu Yunfei fell silent, he didn't want to continue to defend himself.

He was not jealous of Yang Zhongshan's good luck.

He just felt from the bottom of his heart that it was unbelievable no matter how you looked at it, for a titan like Li Yunlong to be defeated by someone like Yang Chongshan.

……

Time flickers.

Two weeks later.

The Sino-Japanese war surrounding the Huting stronghold has settled.

The Huting stronghold was completely controlled by the 57th Regiment of the Jinsui Army.

Everything was just as Yang Zhongshan was sure that the Japanese army did not attack the Huting stronghold in order to take care of the overall situation.

In addition, after Yang Chongshan reported the losses of this battle to his superiors, he did get a considerable supplement of equipment and ammunition.

Today's 57th regiment is neither big nor small, and it is also a "famous regiment" in the Jinsui Army.

First they took down Baiyang Town, and then took down Huting stronghold, which almost became a role model for the Jinsui Army to resist the Japanese, and also became the most powerful proof that the Jinsui Army resolutely resisted the Japanese and protected the mountains and rivers in Yan Laoxi's mouth.

In this regard, Yan Laoxi will naturally take special care of him.

In addition, the Japanese army has recently tried to use private communication in an attempt to get the Huting stronghold back from the hands of the Jinsui army without using force.

This time Li Yunlong's words can be used - Lao Yan, who knew how to do business in the womb, naturally wouldn't agree to the little devil so easily.

However, it is Lao Yan's consistent style to try to shirk there, to gain benefits, but not to take actual actions.

The essence of profiteers is vividly interpreted.

In the regiment headquarters of the 57th Regiment of the Jinsui Army, Yang Zhongshan, who has reached the pinnacle of his life these days, has a smile on his lips all day long.

At this moment, he dialed the number of a team of the Eighth Route Army.

"Hey, Brother Kong, I haven't contacted you for a few days. That's what happened. Didn't you promise me that within two weeks, Captain Li would snatch my battalion and half of the artillery battalion's equipment? help me to get back
I just want to ask about the situation! "

On the other end of the phone, Kong Jie's voice sounded a bit sad: "Brother Chongshan, I'm really sorry.

I'm afraid you will have to wait for this matter. You don't know that our Eighth Route Army has many rules. All captured equipment must be turned over to the public.

When Li Yunlong seized your equipment, he turned around and sent it to the headquarters.

You also know that the units of our Eighth Route Army were short of guns and ammunition, and the equipment was distributed when it was ready. Later, after I explained the matter to the headquarters, the headquarters was also busy getting the equipment back.

But this back and forth always takes time.

Just wait a little longer, I will let you know when I have news! "

The phone hangs up.

Yang Chongshan was stunned, and the kind head Kong Tuan seemed to be as kind as ever.

Just asking for the equipment back, this matter is getting more and more unreliable.

……

New group.

These days, the winter counter-offensive started by a team has gradually come to an end.

In order to avoid excessive losses, the Japanese army even took the initiative to retreat some villages and defenders of strongholds on the outer line to some major towns and counties, and concentrated their forces for defense to ensure the security and stability of the main occupied areas.

The Japanese army and the Eighth Route Army have no large-scale conflicts for the time being.

As the head of the regiment, Ding Wei naturally took some time off, so he could only practice and study the war at the regiment headquarters with maps and sand tables.

As for the battle of the New Second Regiment to take down the Huting stronghold, Ding Wei was so envious.

"Lao Li, this kid has a big stomach this time. He took down the Huting stronghold in one fell swoop, and seized a large amount of guns, ammunition and military supplies. equipment.

Or everyone would say that it doesn't matter how old Li is as the head of the regiment, he is a good businessman! "

Political commissar He Wenqing said with a smile: "Old Ding, you've said so much, it's nothing more than an itch in your heart, and you also want to fight such a battle and make a fortune, right?"

"This is true!" Ding Wei did not deny it, and then said: "And I already have a goal."

As he said that, Ding Wei focused his attention on the military combat map in front of him, the Japanese army's Wanjia Town stronghold not far from the Xinyi Regiment base.

"The devil's stronghold in Wanjia Town is a great place! This place is absolutely no worse than the Huting stronghold in terms of military and economic importance.

It's also a big piece of fat.

The puppet cavalry battalion laid down by Lao Li and Lao Kong was fought in Wanjia Town.

Facing our army's winter counterattack this time, after the Japanese army reduced the strength of the surrounding villages and towns of Wanjia Town, they placed them in the entire Wanjia Town stronghold.

The devils hoarded a large amount of supplies and equipment inside.

If this place can be brought down, it won't be that we envy him, Lao Li, but that he, Lao Li, will envy us in turn. "

Sun Zhenguo, the commander of the first battalion, is a strong general, eager to fight a battle as soon as possible. He immediately stated: "Commander, what else do you have to say, let's take down this big stronghold of Wanjia Town."

Ding Wei smiled: "This matter can't be rushed.

Li Yunlong's attack on the Huting stronghold was also specially thought out. He completely blocked the Huting stronghold, cut off the water supply line of the Japanese army, and finally forced the devils to go out to fight in the stronghold.

Only then did Lao Li take the opportunity to take down the Huting stronghold.

For this, it is also thanks to the old Kong who reinforced the mechanized combat troops in the past in time.

And the big stronghold of Wanjia Town we want to fight is no less difficult than the Huting stronghold, or even higher.

This matter must be carefully planned and planned, and a perfect plan must be thought of. "

Ding Wei, who did what he said, immediately found a wooden ruler and a pencil, and started working on the drawing.

He quickly found two other points around the big stronghold of Wanjia Town, namely the Xiji stronghold and the Changguan stronghold.

After connecting the three strongholds, Ding Wei said, "Let's take a look now, what does the devil's defensive formation look like in these three big strongholds?"

"Triangle defense system!" Sun Zhenguo blurted out.

"That's right, it's the triangle defense system, which is a bit similar to our Shanxi Northwest Iron Triangle. The little devil has learned it in a good way!"

Ding Wei laughed, "As for the characteristics of this triangle defense system, I think everyone is familiar with it. The three points reinforce each other and cooperate with each other, and the defense is the most solid.

In addition to the surrounding areas of these three major strongholds, the defenders of some towns and counties of the devils can also be used as mobile forces at any time to reinforce any point.

We want to conquer the stronghold of Wanjia Town in one fell swoop, but it will not be so easy. "
