Bright sword, I have a red police base car

The bomber unit quickly returned after completing the mission, and the Japanese army has also confirmed that there are still a certain number of bombers with bald heads.

This information is very important to the Japanese army.

After taking down Nanchang, the Japanese army never knew where the bald bomber unit moved to, or whether it was wiped out or what happened.

And now the little devil can be sure that these bombers have been transferred, but it is a pity that the red police force is bombing at night, and the devil can't detect the direction of flight for intelligence collection.

But for Zhang Shijie, although the existence of the Air Force was exposed, it did not have much impact on the overall environment.

As long as the location of the base is not exposed.

So Zhang Shijie looked at the map, and analyzed the subsequent battle with Chen Xi and others.

The next battle will be very important for normal operations. According to the analysis of the intelligence department, the Japanese troops participating in the encirclement and suppression of the Second and Fourth Battalions will exceed the strength of one and a half divisions.Even if the Second Battalion conducted several annihilation battles against the Japanese encirclement and suppression troops before the Japanese troops assembled, the Japanese troops that would eventually be assembled would be more than one division.

Originally, the Second Battalion could eliminate more Japanese troops before the Japanese troops assembled. However, due to the tactical communication between the Japanese troops in the direction of Nanjing and the Japanese troops in the direction of Shanxi, a large number of small groups of Japanese troops stopped advancing and waited for the rendezvous of large troops in the rear. , and were not wiped out one by one by the Red Police Force.

This is the experience accumulated by the Japanese army in Shanxi with their own blood and tears!

Therefore, after getting the information, the Second Battalion no longer pursued to annihilate them one by one, but gathered together and waited for the arrival of the little devils, so as to wait for work with ease.

As the sky dawned, the fourth battalion of the red police force also completed its assembly with the second battalion.

The Red Police Force also built a defensive position in Fengyang Mountain in the Fengyang area of ​​Dingyuan between AH Bengbu and Chuzhou in advance.

This location is also a combat area that has been negotiated by the staff in advance. This area is covered by mountains and can be used as a forward station base for the follow-up Red Police Force in the direction of Nanjing.

However, the construction of this front station base is still based on the premise that the red police force can withstand the devil's attack first.

At this time, the Japanese troops also assembled and surrounded the mountainous area where the Red Police troops were located from Bengbu, Chuzhou, Hefei, Huainan, Nanjing and other directions.

Zhang Shijie and the Red Police Force were not surprised by the Devil's encirclement plan. Normally, the Second Battalion and Fourth Battalion could rely on their own mobility to avoid this battle.

However, Zhang Shijie's strategic intention was to consume the combat power of the Japanese army in the Jiangsu and AH areas, so that the forces preparing to attack Suizao would be consumed in advance, disrupting the Japanese army's strategic deployment.

The little devils are not fools when it comes to disrupting the deployment of the Chinese army on the battlefield behind enemy lines, so they can naturally guess it.

To the surprise of the little devils, the Chinese army did not contain from Shanxi, Shandong, and Hebei in the past, but instead was near Nanjing, where the Japanese army had already assembled heavily.

The reason why Zhang Shijie decided to consume the Japanese army here is because the Japanese army here has a large number of troops, which will not be exhausted for a while.

After all, he, Zhang Shijie, can't just pluck the wool from a sheep in the Japanese army in Shanxi. Now the little devils in Shanxi are about to be beaten into autism by the red police forces. Let them slow down, otherwise the little devils will rush to Shanxi to increase their troops to seek peace. If the red police forces are engaged in a decisive battle, then stealing chickens will not be enough to lose money.

In the face of little devils, the Red Police Force does not trade at a loss.

Due to the sufficient strength of the Red Police Force in this battle, and the Japanese army's offensive front will be very broad in the later stage, under the command of Wang Yu, the second and fourth battalions of the Red Police Force took the lead in Fengyang Mountain. The mountain is the core, radiating outwards to build a position, and the Nianzi Mountain, the Big and Small Jinshan Mountain, the Barren Mountain, the Pig Mountain, the Nine Dragons, and the Coffin Mountain are used as nodes to fight the Japanese army, and pits and fortifications are built on the mountain to form a complete set. defensive positions.

As the remnant of the Dabie Mountains, among the mountains and forested peaks here, the Red Police Force can cause as much damage to the Japanese army as possible while exposing the minimum combat power.

With a full second battalion and a fourth battalion of about 8000 troops, it is too easy to deal with a division of little devils in such a large deep mountain and old forest.

And this time, although the number of troops of the little devils exceeded the number of a division, they were all improvised by various troops.

This is a good opportunity for the Red Police Force to annihilate this force!
If the devil's entire division is wiped out, it will definitely cause a strong reaction from the little devil, but if it is a patchwork of troops, the influence within the devil will not be so strong.

The most important thing is that there will definitely be some problems in the coordinated command of the cobbled together troops, which is tantamount to relieving the pressure on Wang Yu and Ye Fan in disguise.

For Wang Yu and Ye Fan, the only thing lacking in the entire defense area is artillery power.

Now the second battalion has 10 full-staffed companies, and the fourth battalion has only seven companies. The artillery firepower of the two battalions includes two mortar companies, two anti-aircraft artillery companies and one firepower company. This area of ​​defense is still weak.

However, this situation did not last long. The 122 howitzer sent by Zhang Shijie to the Shandong transit base also completed the rendezvous with the combat troops after ten minutes.

After the 16 122mm howitzers were in place, Wang Yu and Ye Fan gained confidence instantly!
Even if the little devils increase their troops again this time, the Red Police will not worry about insufficient firepower.

Insufficient firepower phobia is not the only symptom in the red police force that Zhang Shijie has alone. The rest of the red police soldiers are also a little bit dissatisfied with firepower.

Logistics Minister Zhou Jingren: Listen, are you speaking human language? !

In the preparation stage for this war, the busiest person in the entire Red Police Force was Zhou Jingren, the chief steward of the Red Police Force and the Minister of Logistics and Support Department.

There is no way, the player named by the author will naturally be entrusted with a heavy responsibility.

The firepower of the Red Police Force is fierce, and at the same time there is more demand for ammunition, and the logistical pressure is even greater.

In order to enable Wang Yu and Ye Fan's troops to better complete their tasks, Zhou Jingren delivered a large amount of ammunition and equipment to the two battalions before the battle.

In order to transport these equipments, Zhou Jingren has used all his skills, and all the channels of air and land transportation have been used.

Not long after the howitzer company entered the defense zone, the peripheral security forces informed that the Japanese army had begun preparations for the encirclement.

The external land passage of Fengyang Mountain has now been completely blocked by the Japanese army, and for Zhou Jingren, the only route left is the airdrop of supplies.

Although it is very simple for the Red Police Force to break through the Japanese siege, the strategic intention this time is to cause a large number of casualties to the Japanese army's effective forces. In the early stages of the battle, the Japanese army's action process is naturally required to be smoother.

And no matter how much supplies are airdropped to the Fengyang Mountain area now, no amount is too much. After all, a base area will be built here in the future.

As the head of the Logistics Support Department, Zhou Jingren also made a show in the face of this situation. He directly arranged for two brigades of engineering construction militia to be airdropped to the Fengyang Mountain area to build an airstrip.

It happened that there was a valley in the middle of Fengyang Mountain. With only small engineering equipment, it was no problem for the engineering and construction militia of the two brigades to build an airstrip that could accommodate five takeoffs and landings.

And once there is a shortage of troops, the militias of these two brigades can also be incorporated into the troops to participate in the battle.

This is also a big boost to the second and fourth battalions of Fengyang Mountain.

Just when the soldiers of the Red Police Force began to further strengthen their positions and waited for the little devils to attack, the bandits who had been stationed around Fengyang Mountain couldn't sit still for a moment.

Fengyang Mountain occupies a large area. During the war, many ordinary people took refuge in the mountain, and many people fell into the grass and turned into bandits.

However, since the red police troops arrived not long ago, and the initial task of building and building positions was relatively urgent, they did not have time to free up their hands to deal with these bandits.

The bandits in Fengyang Mountain also knew when they saw this battle, there was going to be another big battle here!

Therefore, most of the knowledgeable bandits packed up and escaped from this area, but there were some desperate bandits who stayed here with a fluke mentality.

After the airborne militia troops were assembled, the soldiers of the Red Police Force had time to deal with them.

Just after cleaning up these bandits, the soldiers of the Red Police Force finally obtained a safe rear, but at this time the front-line reconnaissance force received news of the arrival of the Japanese army.

The first Japanese troops to arrive were the two Japanese regiments that set off from Chuzhou. Since Chuzhou is the closest to Fengyang Mountain, these two regiments have now blocked all the channels to the north of Fengyang Mountain.

At the same time, it also cut off the ground supply line from Fengyang Mountain to the Shandong transit base.

But this was deliberately let go by the Red Police Force, otherwise the two support companies under the Second Battalion and the Fourth Battalion would be enough for these little devils to drink a pot.

The devils of these two regiments did not act rashly after the assembly was completed, and the devils headquarters in Nanjing also repeatedly told the Japanese troops participating in the siege not to act without authorization.

After all, they have now learned that the two alliances that were chasing outside Nanjing before have now gone to meet the locust.

If these two troops rashly enter the mountains, they will probably just follow in the footsteps of the two previous regiments.

The devils in Nanjing are not fools. After the airports around Nanjing were wiped out by the red police forces, the air power of the Japanese army in the entire East China direction has almost been lost.Now the Devil's East China Front Army has begun to request support from the base camp for some fighter jets and bombers.

But when the air power of the Japanese army was in a vacuum, the air power of the Red Police Force basically suffered no loss.

In the air raid last night, none of the Japanese air defense units shot down a single Red Police aircraft.

This means that in the current airspace, air supremacy belongs to the Red Police Force!

The Japanese troops in Nanjing know this clearly, so now they dare not attack the Red Police troops in Fengyang Mountain rashly.The current focus of the Japanese army is on intelligence against the red police forces in Fengyang Mountain.

After all, the little devils don't even know the exact number of Red Police troops participating in the battle at this stage. It is simply impossible to wipe out this Chinese army in the continuous Fengyang Mountain.

While the little devils were struggling with how to search for information on the Red Police Force, a devil's team leader received good news!

They caught some bandits who escaped from Fengyang Mountain.

The bandits didn't even make any resistance when they saw the devils. After seeing so many devils and feeling that they couldn't escape, they just knelt down.

"Taijun don't kill me! Taijun don't kill me!"

Looking at this group of spineless bandits, the face of the leader of the Guizi Alliance was full of relief.

These cowardly Chinese people are really not worthy of occupying such a vast land!This place finally belongs to their big Japanese pot!
So, the captain of the devils beckoned to the devils below, and these bandits were escorted over by the little devils.

"You guys, do you know how many Chinese troops are working in the mountains?"

The bandit said directly after hearing the words: "If you go back to the emperor, the army in Fengyang Mountain has about three to four thousand troops, and they still have a lot of artillery. Otherwise, we definitely wouldn't be so anxious to join the locust army!"

After hearing the information from the bandits, the leader of the Devils Alliance asked a few other bandits to verify the information, and after confirming that it was correct, he sent a telegram to the headquarters in Nanjing.

The devils in Nanjing were also very surprised after receiving the information. They did not believe that only 4000 to [-] troops could wipe out the previous two regiments.

In fact, what these bandits saw was not the full strength of the Red Police Force, but only a few companies of troops. However, because the defense zone set by the Red Police Force left a lot of depth for subsequent development, this group of bandits It is also impossible to see the full strength of the Red Police Force.

After learning the number of troops, the little devils in Nanjing asked the devils in Taiyuan for their opinions on sending troops.

The difference between this unit and other units is too great, and in the direction of Jiangxi, the Japanese army has to prepare for the deployment of troops for the battle, so the little devils are very cautious when it comes to targeting the Red Police units.

But after receiving advice from Shanxi, the little devils in Nanjing were all in bad shape.

"Nani?! Prepare five to ten times more troops for encirclement and suppression?! Is this army really that strong?!" The Japanese army in Nanjing said inconceivably when they saw Shanxi's reply.

For such a force of 3000 people, at least 5000 people must be dispatched, which is not a small pressure on the Japanese army.

In normal times, it would be normal to dispatch more than 1 troops, but now we are about to prepare for the Suizao battle. Mobilizing so many troops will inevitably cause a vacancy on the front line.

"Is it really possible to disrupt the entire strategic deployment?" (End of this chapter)
