Show the sword, start from the guerrillas

Now, the only equipment that the Japanese ground forces have that is stronger than the Eighth Route Army, apart from heavy artillery, is these various types of tanks and armored vehicles! Of course, there are also various trucks, which the Eighth Route Army lacks, which has a great impact on mobility and logistics!

But then again, the retreat of the Japanese is one thing, but they still have to travel thousands of miles to get back to the north, and they have to divide their troops and station them in various places, mobilize their forces to form attack teams, and then distribute attack materials, distribute supplies, etc. It really takes some time. For at least half a month, the Japanese are unable to launch a large-scale attack on the bases currently occupied by the Eighth Route Army!
Well, let alone large-scale operations, the Japs can gather 146 troops to form an attack team this time, which is probably the limit! After all, there are thousands of miles of newly occupied areas in the south, 4 counties, and 27000 provincial capitals. Even if the Japs only put one squadron in each county, it would take up people.

But would the devil dare to do this? If they really dared to disperse their forces like this, the Central Army would be able to turn around and eat them back one by one! Of course, the premise is that the Central Army really dared to do so.

The key point is that the Japanese also suffered casualties in the Battle of Henan, Hunan and Guangxi! Unlike other places where they fled at the sight of the enemy, the Battle of Hengyang wiped out more than 2 Japanese and caused more than 6 casualties. This is not much different from the total result of the entire Battle of Henan, Hunan and Guangxi: 2.4 deaths, plus a total of 10 wounded soldiers.

It can be said that without the Battle of Hengyang, the Japanese would have been able to withdraw troops to maintain the stability of the transportation line! So we can borrow a saying from the ancients to praise Fang Xianjue: Defend a city and defend the world!
It is precisely because of such damage that the old devils in Gangcun really felt the dilemma of insufficient manpower! In fact, the stable situation with the Central Army in the past few years was also related to insufficient manpower!

Do you really think the Eighth Route Army is a pushover in the north? They tied up hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops in the north! Look at the Battle of Zhongtiao Mountain, the Central Army transferred its elite troops to fight the Eighth Route Army, and as a result, Zhongtiao Mountain was lost!
What is the other situation? That is, the Eighth Route Army's southward detachment is heading south at this time. The devils are not afraid of the Central Army, but they have to guard against the Eighth Route Army's southward movement. Therefore, they have to prepare a large number of troops to guard the newly occupied places. If there are fewer troops, they can't hold on at all! In these places, the soldiers that the devils can mobilize can only be their own soldiers in the short term. It will take time to build up the puppet army.

After such an analysis, the head of the headquarters made a confident judgment - the Japanese counterattack this time would either be in vain, or a whimper, or no return! Facing the threat of tanks, the Eighth Route Army was not without means to deal with it. That's right, the rocket launcher combat group that every main regiment must have is specially designed to attack small tanks!
The use of this rocket launcher is a mandatory requirement. Each platoon must have two rocket launcher groups. Soldiers must be proficient in launching and loading the rocket launcher, and the accuracy of the launch must also be guaranteed.

The headquarters' opinion was actually the opinion of the Beishan detachment - you may not need it, but you must have it! Even if the bazooka soldiers were eating dust and dirt in the trenches during the battle, they still had to have battlefield experience, and it had to be the front-line battlefield where the flames of war were raging.

It is for this reason that the headquarters' reminder is to be careful of tanks, not other things. Tanks, be careful, the rocket launchers will just find an opportunity to attack! Moreover, according to the materials in the military training materials of the Beishan Detachment, the soldiers of each regiment have also mastered some strategies and tactics for team cooperation to fight tanks.

In short, we have weapons, training, and data support, but we lack some actual combat! Well, Beiyue District does not count, because the comrades in Beiyue District have really fought tanks! In addition, the 9rd Regiment of the 3th Division also has experience in fighting tanks!
The order was issued, and the troops heading south also headed south, and the battle situation in western Shanxi also calmed down! The southbound detachment crossed the Yellow River to the east and came directly to western Shanxi. The Japanese were still thinking about how to counterattack, but the main force of more than 6000 came in a flash, and they were so scared that they closed the city gates and dared not think about making trouble anymore.

As soon as the Southward Detachment appeared, the Shanxi Suiyuan Army also became much more honest and did not dare to cause trouble secretly! Yan Laoxi was not a generous person. He could not catch his own soldiers one by one when they ran away, but he could easily use the order of the superiors to cause trouble for the Eighth Route Army.

Time passed quickly, and ten days passed in a flash. Just as the bases near the Yellow River actively responded to the call of the headquarters, took the initiative to dig trenches, tunnels, mobilize the masses, establish militia organizations, build fortress villages, and plan to fight the Japanese, a convoy of 6 trucks drove out from the headquarters and drove along the Pinghan Line to the Jiluyu base.

Why is it the Jiluyu Base? Just look at the name, it is the base established at the junction of the three provinces of Jiluyu, Jiluyu, and Jiluyu, right in front of the Pinghan Line. If the Japanese counterattack, then this is the first place to bear the brunt! Do you really think that the soldiers and civilians in the Jiluyu Base were idle during this period? Who destroyed the Daoqing Railway? Who attacked the several counties around the railway? That's right, it's here!
"Report to the commander, the convoy delivering ammunition from the headquarters has arrived!" At the headquarters of the Hebei-Shandong-Henan base area, sentry Xiao Liu ran all the way to report the news to Commander Song.

"The convoy has arrived? Okay, Xiao Sun, you guys go and hand over the goods to them quickly. Make sure to look carefully at the names on the list and then count them carefully. There must be no mistakes in the numbers! By the way, there are technicians accompanying the convoy. Take them to eat something and drink some water first. We will have to let them teach us how to do things later!" The commander and the political commissar said with a smile.

"Yes!" After receiving the order, Xiao Sun and his team hurried to the convoy to take over. Some cadres followed them, wanting to know what treasure the headquarters had sent this time! Could it be a rocket launcher?

The convoy drove in and stopped steadily in the large yard, and people looked over with curiosity!

The first thing we saw was people! It was not a short journey from the headquarters to here, it was several hundred kilometers, but the driver, the soldiers escorting the truck, and the technicians who followed did not complain. They all had smiles on their faces, and even had a sense of anticipation. After the leading officer handed over to the division, people knew what was on the huge truck.

The canvas covering the truck bed was opened, revealing a number of log-style wooden boxes. The boxes were very heavy, and it took two soldiers to put them on the ground, with a thump.

Then, the crowbar was used to open the box, revealing some large round and black discs inside! The discs were not too big, only 30 cm in diameter and 10 cm high. They looked ordinary and had nothing special to recommend them. But looking at the excitement of the technicians, you can tell that these discs are not simple. (End of this chapter)
