The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

Chapter 567
"Then they will be in big trouble!" The good mood on the deputy chief of staff's face disappeared instantly, and his face became more and more serious, looking at the map analysis.

"How can you allow others to snore and sleep on the side of the couch? Baoding is too close to Beiping. Gangcun Ningci will never allow an armed Eighth Route Army that can threaten the safety of Beiping to exist."

"If Gangcun Ningci knew the huge development potential of the Duer Regiment, he would definitely mobilize heavy troops from other places in North China to launch an attack and wipe out the Duer Regiment in the bud."

"The three garrison regiments in Kong Jie's hands have just been established and have not yet formed combat effectiveness. Some garrison regiments have not even reached full strength, and their combat effectiveness is very poor. They cannot withstand any major blows."

"The range of activities is located in the plains. After being attacked by devils, there is no place to hide."

"The base area was first established, and the people's support for them is definitely not as high as the old base area. If Gangcun Ningci launches an attack on them now, the three garrison regiments may be devastated when they are just established."

The deputy commander added with a sullen face: "Except for the three garrison regiments, the situation of the second regiment is not much better."

"The telegram said: The newly established Wangdu garrison regiment and Mancheng garrison regiment were expanded based on the second and third battalions of Dudu. It means that the three garrison regiments have almost exhausted the few veterans of the Duer regiment."

"The current Duer regiment looks like a main force regiment, but it is actually an empty shell, full of recruits, and has little combat effectiveness."

"It really collided with the main force of the Japanese army, and its combat effectiveness is not as good as that of the Shunping garrison that Kong Jie first established."

"The Wangdu garrison regiment and the Mancheng garrison regiment attacked the city all the way, and they must have seized a lot of mortars. In addition to the mountain artillery, infantry artillery, and mortars supported by the regiment headquarters, there were only [-]. The two regiments It adds up to forty artillery pieces of various kinds."

After the Devils Mobile Force withdrew to Baoding, Huang Yu took advantage of the situation to withdraw to Shunping.

"If this happens, the situation we finally opened in the Yizhong Plain will be destroyed, and the people in the base area will also suffer."

"Your Excellency, calm down!"

"Tunnel warfare is different from positional warfare. As long as soldiers can shoot, they can use tunnels to kill devils."

"The Baoding garrison suffered a lot in the previous battle, even the mobile troops were wiped out. The headquarters just filled them with an infantry brigade, and the follow-up reinforcements have not yet arrived. They should not have the strength to launch large-scale operations. Will the intelligence department Mistake!"

"Could it be that he wants to hide it until the Eighth Route Army develops outside the city of Beiping?"

…………

Looking at Huang Yu with a relieved expression on his face, he said, "After hearing what you said, I immediately gained confidence."

The chief of staff was also taken aback by the contents of the report, and then shifted his gaze to the sand table, becoming more and more frightened the more he looked at it.It was okay to say a few good words for Major General Zhang Gu, but now I can't say anything, so I can only sigh.

"The trump card is just outside the town!"

"The night raid on Pingyang just finished... the whole regiment only used less than fifty artillery pieces to blow up the Japanese army, crying and howling. If a hundred artillery pieces of various kinds were assembled to launch an attack, the devils would definitely be blown up and collapsed on the spot. A stray dog."

The [-]nd and [-]rd Battalions have already taken down Wangdu and Mancheng, and the containment task assigned to him by the regiment leader has been completed, so there is no need to stay any longer. It is better to return to the base area to train the troops and improve the combat effectiveness of the Shunping garrison regiment.

"You kid must be comforting me!"

"There are more than a hundred artillery pieces of various types. If you use them well, you will have no problem against the little devils from the three brigades."

"The little devils from the two brigades invaded the base area. When they camped and slept at night, they were attacked by four to five hundred shells within half a minute. Even if the little devils were made of steel and iron, they would be blown to pieces..."

"At that time, there must have been a lot of troops forming a combat force. With the powerful artillery and tunnel network, we will be able to hold the base and repel all invading enemies."

The chief of staff was startled by the sudden anger of Ningji Gangcun, and hurriedly comforted him.

"During the army's attack, the base area continued to dig tunnels. Many tunnels should have been completed, and the unfinished ones are not much worse."

"Regimental Commander, the troops won three battles and three victories, and the Wangdu garrison regiment and the Mancheng garrison regiment were successfully formed. This is a great thing. You don't look happy at all."

"The army does not have a reserve team. This hidden danger is too great. It may bring a devastating blow to the Duer regiment at any time."

It was completely unexpected that the Duer Regiment, which has great potential for development, would hide such a big crisis, and a little carelessness would bring a devastating blow to the Duer Regiment.

As a result, as soon as he stepped into the regiment headquarters, he saw Kong Jie frowning and studying the map.

"I will send a telegram to Deng Jingye and Huang Qi right now: tell them to hurry up and train artillery."

…………

The troops have been exhausted for a long time after fighting continuously outside, and urgently need to return to the base area to recuperate.

"I am the leader of the Duer Regiment. If there is such an elite team in the base area, why don't I know!"

At the North China Front Command of the Japanese Army in Beiping, Neiji Okamura was studying a piece of information just sent by the intelligence department with a sullen face.

"But you can send him the analysis about Gangcun Ningci, so that Kong Jie and Huang Yu can take a long-term view, and don't just focus on the Japanese and puppet troops in Baoding."

"Although the development potential of the Duer Regiment is very great, but because they have spread too much, the overall combat effectiveness of the Duer Regiment is not as high as before the expansion."

Kong Jie racked his brains and couldn't figure out where the reserve team Huang Yu was talking about, nor what the so-called trump card was, so he asked directly: "Quickly tell me, I still don't believe it. Unknown reserves."

After finishing speaking, his face returned to the serious expression just now, looked at Huang Yu seriously and said: "Xiao Huang, I'm not joking with you."

"Baoding has a special geographical location. His safety is not only related to the Japanese's control over the Yizhong Plain, but also related to the safety of the southern gate of Beiping and the safety of the Japanese North China Front Army Command. Okamura Ningji will never sit idly by. .”

"After all, we are too far away from them, and we don't know the specific situation there."

"In addition to the reserve team, we also hold a trump card in our hands!"

Kong Jie finally figured it out.

"Artillery troops!" Huang Yu blurted out.

"The Shunping garrison regiment is equipped with 23 artillery pieces of various types, and the main force of the regiment is equipped with [-] field artillery pieces. In the future, when the artillery company directly under our brother's battalion is built, the number of artillery pieces in the base area is likely to exceed [-] pieces. Fire a hundred shells of all kinds."

The serious expression on the deputy chief of staff's face has been replaced by a solemn expression unconsciously.

"As long as the number of Japanese and puppet troops attacking us does not exceed 2000, with the fighting power of this reserve team, we are fully capable of keeping them out of the base area and killing the enemy!"

"That's not counting the flying cannons we modified from gasoline barrels."

"It's actually not the case. Not only do we have a reserve team, but we also have very strong combat effectiveness."

Suddenly the telegram was slammed on the table with a "snap", and the burning anger radiated from his body in an instant, and he opened his mouth and began to curse: "Ba Ge Ya Lu, Mr. Zhang Gu has let me down too much. If you don’t report it, you don’t have any perspective on the overall situation…”

"We built a huge network of tunnels on the edge of the base, and with a certain number of troops, we can hold back an infantry brigade no matter what."

"Now that I don't have a reserve team in hand, I always feel uneasy and something big is about to happen."

The deputy commander-in-chief thought for a while and replied: "It's fine to make suggestions, and the general's life will not be accepted. Maybe Kong Jie has already thought of our worries just now, and he already has a solution."

It is not only Kong Jie's habit to stay in the reserve team during the war, but also Huang Yu's habit. He immediately comforted him: "Regiment leader, don't worry, don't think that we have divided the veterans into the army. It seems that there is no one in our hands that can go to the battlefield immediately." force!"

"The base area is empty of troops, and the role of the tunnel network is no less than that of a few main battalions. It is very important, and there must be no mistakes."

Kong Jie still replied with a serious expression: "This is not a trivial matter..."

Immediately, he suggested to the deputy commander: "Should I send a telegram to remind Kong Jie, let them shrink a little, don't take too big a step, and develop slowly."

"Use it well, it will be no problem to fight another brigade of devils."

"I'm sending someone to check the tunnel network being built around the base... No, I'll go and check it myself..."

"There is only one mobile brigade in Baoding now, and we don't know when the follow-up reinforcements and supplementary troops will be in place. Taking 5000 steps back, even if the Baoding garrison returns to full strength, they will at most deploy [-] people to attack us!"

"A few more main forces will be drawn from each regiment to launch a feint attack, which can scare the little devil to death."

"In previous wars, no matter how weak the army was, no matter how difficult the situation was, an elite reserve team would be kept in hand for emergencies."

Kong Jie shook his head, and replied seriously: "The army won the battle, it is indeed worth celebrating, but we spread the booth too much, and scattered all the limited veterans. In the morning, I suddenly found out: If the base area is attacked again, our company will be defeated." There are no elites who can take the little devil by force, it's too dangerous."

"So that's what happened!" Huang Yu thought that something serious had happened in the base area, and after hearing it, he showed a relieved expression.

Seeing that Kong Jieyue was getting more and more anxious, Huang Yu quickly explained: "Commander, I'm not joking with you. We do have a reserve team that can carry two infantry battalions of devils, but you didn't notice it."

"Several times the troops encountered it was the reserve team who helped to clear the siege."

"I have fought for so many years, and I have never felt so guilty like today."

"Lost two county towns in a row, how could such a big matter go wrong, you can see for yourself..." Gangcun Ningci said angrily.

"Impossible!" Kong Jie shook his head like a rattle, retorting with disbelief.

"Hase-kun did a bit too much this time!"

"Wangdu is lost with Mancheng, and the base areas of the Eighth Route Army operating in the wings will be connected together. Not only the base area has expanded several times compared to before, but the population has also increased several times."

"At the speed of the Eighth Route Army's troop pull, it can expand to 1 troops in at most three months. At that time, not only Baoding will be in danger, but the Eighth Route Army may also threaten the safety of Peiping."
