The father of the sword is Kong Jie

Chapter 886
The big stronghold of Wanjia Town that Ding Wei took down this time is slightly different from the big stronghold of Huting that Li Yunlong took down.

The big stronghold in Wanjia Town is not like the Huting stronghold, which tightly strangles some communication channels between the Eighth Route Army base area and the base area.

In addition, the big stronghold of Wanjia Town is relatively speaking, one is that it is in the relatively stable occupied area of ​​​​the devils.

Therefore, after the Huting stronghold was knocked down, Kong Jie and Li Yunlong could find a way to temporarily sell the Huting stronghold and put it in the hands of the 57th regiment of the Jinsui Army.

After the big stronghold in Wanjia Town was taken down, the soldiers could only seize all the supplies and ammunition, then destroy the stronghold and evacuate quickly.

It is meaningless to be stationed, it will only become a salted fish next to the old cat's pillow, which may be eaten at any time.

In fact, it doesn't matter whether it was Li Yunlong who led the troops to take down the Huting stronghold.

It was Ding Wei who led the troops to take down the stronghold of Wanjia Town.

From a certain point of view, it can be said that it is part of the counterattack against Japan that a team took the lead in launching this winter.

This is the end.

The first anti-Japanese detachment in Northwest Shanxi led by Kong Jie took the lead in launching the winter counterattack, and the results became more and more remarkable, gradually approaching the peak.

Wang Shoucheng took the mechanized combat battalion with him, and when he returned from the Xinyi Regiment, he also brought half of the supplies and ammunition seized after taking down the big stronghold in Wanjia Town.

In this regard, although Ding Wei is in pain, he is still quite trustworthy and has never cheated.

After all, the mechanized combat battalion sent by Kong Jie played a major role in taking down the stronghold of Wanjia Town this time.

"Regimental Commander, this combat mission went quite smoothly, I'm here to report the situation to you!"

In the headquarters, Wang Shoucheng explained in detail the process that the mechanized combat troops should use the central breakthrough method to take down the Japanese army's Wanjia Town stronghold.

This was Kong Jie's special request before departure.

After Wang Shoucheng finished speaking, Kong Jie asked, "After this battle, what do you think of our mechanized combat troops?"

Wang Shoucheng thought for a while and replied: "Regimental Commander, I have to say that this mechanized combat unit is indeed very unique.

With high mobility, coupled with the special enhanced firepower configuration, the combat effectiveness is also quite strong, and it can always appear suddenly, and then catch the little devil by surprise.

This reminds me of the tactics used by the mechanized combat squadrons of the little devils a few years ago.

We can always launch surprise attacks before we have time to guard against them, causing considerable losses to our Eighth Route Army troops.

Well now, Feng Shui turns, and finally it's our turn to beat him up, little devil! "

"Don't be careless, right now our mechanized combat unit is taking advantage of this winter counter-offensive to take advantage of the opportunity to launch operations.

In addition, the little devil was defenseless, so he was able to obtain the results smoothly.

Waiting for next spring, the devils are ready, and there will be air reinforcements that may appear at any time.

When our mechanized combat troops go into battle again, we need to be extra careful! " Kong Jie reminded.

"Yes, please rest assured, commander. After I go back, I will continue to strengthen the training of mechanized combat troops, including training in air combat."

"Go!"

"Yes!"

After Wang Shoucheng left, Kong Jie, Li Wenjie, and Xu Guoan began to study the military sand table of the headquarters again. This time, after the Wanjia Town and Huting strongholds were taken down, the evolution of the Sino-Japanese war in Northwest Shanxi.

"This time, the little devil is ashamed to be thrown at grandma's house. First, we launched the winter counterattack and took down the devil's four towns and three towns, including the new first regiment and the new second regiment, as well as our Eighth Route Army regiments. Some remote villages and towns of devils.

In order to stabilize the law and order in some important counties and towns, the devil finally chose to suffer from this dumb loss.

As a result, in less than two weeks, we first took down the devil's Huting stronghold, and then took down the devil's Wanjia Town stronghold.

Yoshio Shinozuka, that old devil, is probably about to explode! "

When Xu Guoan said these words, his face was full of smiles.

Political commissar Li Wenjie was worried: "The devils have always been small-minded and have a strong desire for revenge. This winter's big counterattack we launched will hurt the devils. I am afraid that the revenge of the little devils will be so violent next spring!"

"Then let the storm come more violently!"

Kong Jie said solemnly, looked up, saw Li Wenjie and Xu Guoan staring at him blankly, and added with a smile: "Gorky said it!"

Xu Guoan and Li Wenjie, who knew Kong Jie very well, immediately realized something.

Noticing that Kong Jie's gaze was already wandering erratically on the military sand table, Xu Guoan said with a smile: "Old Kong, don't you want to add fire?"

"Why not?" Kong Jie asked back.

"The more violent this coming storm is, the more it will temper the steely fighting will and fearless revolutionary belief of our Eighth Route Army troops.

The little devils want to take revenge, and I'm still waiting for them to come and take revenge! "

Speaking of this, Kong Jie couldn't help but ask again: "How are the preparations for the tunnels and tunnel fortifications inside the four townships and three towns?"

"Don't worry, our Eighth Route Army has nothing else, but when it comes to earthworks, there is no ambiguity at all when there are many people and strength.

In addition, for this tunnel and tunnel fortification, our arsenal specially produced some machines specially used for digging tunnels.

Good guy, that efficiency is not so fast.

In the past, it was not bad for a soldier to dig a tunnel of one or two meters a day. With these machines, he could even dig a tunnel of one or two meters a day. " Xu Guoan replied.

What Kong Jie said next was earnest: "A successful battle cannot be separated from adequate preparations.

Before the end of winter, the defensive foundation we laid in the four townships and three towns is the main factor in whether we can block the Japanese attack in the future.

In addition, we can't continue to retreat from the big sweep that the devils may set off in the spring.

This time we will use a new attitude, even a positive defense, to let the little devil return home! "

In this regard, Kong Jie made up his mind.

He knew very well that according to the trend of historical events, by February and March in the spring, the Japanese army would definitely launch a big raid on Taihang and Taiyue, including Northwest Shanxi.

Kong Jie is also very clear about the purpose.

It is precisely to cope with the May [-]st sweep that will be launched in the Jizhong Military Region.

So the little devil took the lead in mopping up and suppressing Taihang, Taiyue and Northwest Shanxi, and prepared in advance for the outbreak of the May Day mopping up.

Well, to spring.

The Japanese army launched a sweeping counterattack against the first team and the villages and towns occupied by the New First Regiment and the New Second Regiment. The final victory or defeat is particularly important.

Of course, Kong Jie is also very clear about this, the devil's spring sweep will be as violent as a storm in the future.

The eyes of several people refocused on the military sand table.

Kong Jie said: "It is necessary to strike while the iron is hot, and it is the same principle to fight against little devils.

After our winter counter-offensive was fully launched, the little devils have been forced to withdraw their troops and use them for the defense of major counties and towns.

This is our opportunity, little devil, let's take a step back!Can the devil still scare us?
The Japanese army must have been annoyed by taking down the Huting stronghold and the Wanjia town stronghold, but this is not enough, far from enough, we need to make more noise! "

As Kong Jie said to the cadres at a certain military meeting a few months ago:
"I'm not afraid that the little devil will concentrate his forces against our first team. We have a team that has the confidence to fight against the mopping up. Even if we face the little devil face-to-face, we are worthy of him.

But what am I afraid of?

What I'm afraid of is that the devils will set off a big raid and attack us indiscriminately in Taihang, Taiyue and even the base areas in Northwest Shanxi.

In this case, our team may be able to easily break through the devil's blockade, but other teams can't say so. "

What is this like?

It's like a team is now a strong man with a strong body and strong immunity, so they are not afraid of getting sick.

Get well soon after being sick.

But I am afraid that the partners around me will also get sick together.

Then no matter how well a team develops and has a solid background, it is difficult to take into account other teams.

... "Then hit him a few more strongholds!" Kong Jie expressed his thoughts.

"Still hitting the stronghold!!!" Xu Guoan asked.

Kong Jie nodded: "Fight! It's just some small and medium-sized strongholds, and we don't like them. If we want to fight, we must attack Huting stronghold and Wanjia Town stronghold, which are the strongholds that the Japanese army focuses on defending.

Destroying these strongholds will greatly affect the devil's transportation ability, security ability, and traffic ability. "

"That's true!" Xu Guoan nodded, but he still couldn't help being surprised by Kong Jie's big appetite, "It's just that in the area of ​​Shouyang, Yangquan, Tan County, and Ping'an County, there are large towns like Huting and Wanjia Town. There are not a few strongholds.

Old Kong, if we hit the cannon, the whole Northwest Shanxi may be in chaos again! "

"Then let this pot of porridge be more messy!"

"This time we will not only fight these big strongholds, but also bring other teams to fight together." Kong Jie said.

"Old Kong, you mean to drag the 57th regiment of the Jinsui Army into this muddy water again?"

Xu Guoan was stunned for a moment, good guy, this is catching a stupid sheep and pulling it hard!
Kong Jie laughed and said, "Not only the 57th Regiment of the Jinsui Army, but also the 311th Regiment of the National Army, the 71st Regiment of the Jinsui Army, and even the 358th Regiment of Chu Yunfei, we will bring them all here.

Plus, it's even possible to put the message out.

Including the national army troops in some places, and even some bandit troops as long as they are fighting devils, we can provide them with convenience, get out of the way, and support them to fight devils! "

"This……"

Time seems to be going back. Kong Jie's words seem to remind Xu Guoan and Li Wenjie of an incident a year or two ago.

What event?

Throughout the three Jin Dynasties, armed forces from all over the country seized the Japanese army's cash flow and material flow.

At that time, the entire northwest of Shanxi was completely chaotic.

The bandits, the Jiang army, the Eighth Route Army, the Jinsui Army, and the local national army all went crazy and carried out armed looting of some towns in the Japanese-occupied areas.

"The robbery trend that time scared the little devils in the whole Sanjin.

Until now, I heard that we still have many cadres who miss the atmosphere at that time and wonder when we will make such a fuss again! " Xu Guoan said with a smile.

Kong Jie said: "The opportunity is here.

In fact, on our land, as a native Chinese armed force, we have a unique advantage in propaganda compared with the little devils.

In addition, it is human nature for the tree to fall and the hozen to scatter and beat the dog in the water.

Now in this winter counterattack, the little devils are retreating steadily, we are singing all the way, who can't see this situation?

Who wouldn't want to take the opportunity to get a share of the pie in the stronghold where the devils hoarded a lot of supplies?

As long as our propaganda is in place, the bandits will probably come down from the mountain to help deal with the little devils. "

Xu Guoan said happily: "I fully believe this, but there is one thing, old Kong, you said that the 57th and 71st regiments of the Jinsui Army would agree to attack the Japanese strongholds with us, I believe this.

It's just that Chu Yunfei's 358 regiment is probably not so easy to get caught, right? "

Kong Jie said with a smile: "It's all about human effort. Chu Yunfei's 358th Regiment is an elite unit in the Jinsui Army. If Chu Yunfei can participate in the battle, it will be more representative of the Jinsui Army's attitude.

This kid must be pulled in! "

As for how to do it, Kong Jie had already made plans.

Not two days.

The headquarters of the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army.

Chu Yunfei, who was studying soldiers at the headquarters, suddenly received a letter sent to him by someone specially sent by Kong Jie.

The soldiers of the Eighth Route Army who delivered the letter also specifically stated that only Commander Chu could open this letter.

When the letter was in Chu Yunfei's hands, the knowledgeable Fang Ligong said with a smile, "Master, this is a letter specially given to you by Kong Jie, so I won't be there."

With that said, Fang Ligong turned his head and was about to leave, but was stopped by Chu Yunfei.

"Then Kong Jie is also an upright man, so he won't send any letters that dare not be seen by others. Brother Ligong, just stay and read together."

Chu Yunfei is not stupid, these people have one more witness.

Otherwise, if someone later accused him of having an affair with the Eighth Route Army, who would he turn to to justify it?

"Yes!"

Fang Ligong responded, but he was also very curious, "Tuan Zuo, what exactly did Kong Jie say in the letter?"

Chu Yunfei smiled, opened the envelope, and took out two things from the envelope.

A letter that seems to be written by Kong Jie.

And the other is... a map?
Spread out the map, it seems to be just a conventional combat map, covering most of the counties and towns in the Japanese-occupied areas of Northwest Shanxi.

In addition, there are some eye-catching points specially marked with red pen on it.

——Yangguan stronghold, Pingbei stronghold, Hanoi stronghold...

Fang Ligong looked at it for a while, and said in a daze: "It's terrible, Tuan Zuo, the Eighth Route Army has almost marked all the important large-scale strongholds of the Japanese army in Northwest Shanxi.

Could it be that Kong Jie has such a big appetite and is going to directly eat up these large Japanese strongholds in Northwest Shanxi? "

Chu Yunfei didn't respond for the time being, he was reading the letter that Kong Jie wrote to him.

According to the Eighth Route Army soldiers who delivered the letter, it was a letter written by Commander Kong.

Looking at the strong writing in the letter, Chu Yunfei said with emotion: "It is said that Kong Jie, like Li Yunlong, is a mud-legged general with no culture, but now it seems that he is not as rumored.

Based on this letter alone, if it was really written by Kong Jie himself, one can tell a thing or two.

The pen is powerful, and every stroke is full of self-confidence, determination, and seems to have a courageous momentum. "

Fang Ligong was silent, but he never saw these things from these handwritings.

"Tuan Zuo, I heard that the generals of the Eighth Route Army will also conduct some special cultural studies after fighting. Perhaps it is the culture that Kong Jie learned in the army."

"That would be even more remarkable. Just imagine, if this person graduated from a formal military academy, what kind of genius would he be!" Chu Yunfei said.

"Even in war, the Eighth Route Army has never stopped learning. In contrast, in our Jinsui Army, which officer is not living on his laurels?
Learning can make people progress, brother meritorious service, isn't this enough to wake you up and me? "

Fang Ligong nodded approvingly.

The Eighth Route Army has become stronger and stronger in recent years, perhaps it is related to continuous self-improvement and continuous learning.

The two said a few words, and then turned their attention to what Kong Jie wrote in the letter...
