Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 1268 Chief Yan is very calculating (Second update!)
At ten o'clock in the morning, Wang Ping rushed to the front enemy headquarters that had been prepared in advance outside Linfen City.

"Regimental Commander, except for the Heavy Artillery Battalion, several mountain artillery companies will arrive at night. The other troops are already in place, and they are resting at the hidden spots designated for them by the regiment headquarters!" Seeing Wang Ping coming in, a combat staff officer ran over. reported.

"What about the casualties?" Wang Ping was very satisfied with the result, and asked further.

"After fighting for one night, the casualties of the troops must not be small!"

The combat staff hesitated for a moment and replied: "Yes, regimental commander!"

"The biggest losses are the [-]th, [-]th, and [-]th main battalions, independent battalions, and new battalions commanded by the chief of staff!"

"The ninth and tenth main battalions, the new battalion, and the independent battalion that attacked the vanguard of the Japanese and puppet troops also lost a lot. However, the organizational system of the troops is still there!"

"According to statistics, all the losses of the whole regiment add up to more than 800 people. Among them, the independent fifth battalion, the newly organized fourth battalion, the independent tenth battalion, and the main force ninth battalion suffered the most losses, with almost half of the casualties!"

"However, our victories are also very great. The equipment of the Japanese Heavy Artillery Wing, whether it is good or bad, we have all dragged back. The heavy artillery battalion commander Wang has arranged for people to check it. There are twelve large-caliber mountain artillery pieces. Eight of them are intact... Thirty of the 36 large-caliber howitzers are intact and ready to be put into use immediately!"

"In addition, as long as he is given time to dismantle and reassemble the ten heavy artillery pieces that were blown up, he can repair at least five of them!"

"We used small-caliber mortars against the Japanese heavy artillery positions, and their destructive power against heavy artillery was very limited!"

"Very good! Order Wang Binhe to ignore the artillery for now. After dark, bring the heavy artillery battalion to Linfen immediately. Tonight, his heavy artillery battalion will also play the leading role!"

Two hours later, Chief of Staff Zhong Chenggong also arrived here.

Li Wen, the captain of the direct team, came with him.

Seeing the smile on Li Wen's face, Wang Ping immediately realized that the task he assigned to the team directly under him had been completed.

Sure enough, before he even opened his mouth, Li Wen reported with a smile: "Regimental Commander, directly under the team, investigation company, successfully completed the task!"

"With the cooperation of the intelligence department, we killed a total of four Japanese action teams, each with more than 50 people, one-third of them were Japanese agents, and two-thirds were traitors. The equipment and clothing of the Jinsui Army, Do something wrong in our base!"

"I knew that there were no tasks that could hinder your immediate team!" Wang Ping replied happily.

"How about it, can the direct subordinate team and the reconnaissance company still be able to fight~ If so, I will participate in the decisive battle against the Devil Kato Division tonight. With your two elites joining the battle, our new regiment will definitely be even more powerful, and the chances of winning will also increase. Quite a few."

Li Wen immediately replied: "Leader, please rest assured, the team directly under the reconnaissance company can join the battle at any time!"

Then he added: "In addition, I have another piece of information here, I hope you will pay attention to it!"

"The strength of an army of the Jinsui Army has been following the Japanese army. Although a division of troops has been divided along the way, they are stationed in important villages and counties along the line. However, this army still has two divisions behind the Japanese army! "

"I guess the ultimate goal of these Jinsui troops is Linfen City in front of us!"

Wang Ping replied with a serious face: "Our Chief Yan is worthy of being the local emperor of Shanxi, he is good at calculating!"

"Cooperate with the Japanese and take down Linfen City without a single soldier. Then take Linfen City as the center, take down the surrounding areas step by step, and finally drive our Xinyi Regiment out of Southwest Shanxi!"

"I know how the Jinsui Army cooperated with the Japanese!" Li Wen said suddenly.

"If I'm not wrong, it should be food!"

"We followed this Jinsui army for two days, and it was confirmed that they carried at least 1000 million catties of grain."

"There are only more than 2 people in their army. If they die, they can eat 1000 catties of grain a day. A total of [-] million catties of grain is enough for them to eat for half a year. There is no need for the Jinsui army to carry so much grain, so I judge that these grains must be for the little devils, and they will be traded with the Japanese army in Linfen City today and tomorrow!"

"The Jinsui Army took over Linfen City from the Japanese, and gave 1000 million catties of grain to the Japanese. It's a good plan!" Wang Ping replied with a face full of enlightenment.

Chief of Staff Zhong Chenggong frowned and asked: "Then tonight we, the Jinsui Army, and more than 1 Japanese are not all here!"

"Regimental Commander, the Japanese from the two divisions are watching us and the Japanese in the decisive battle in Linfen City, will there be any accidents!"

Including the battle last night, Wang Ping never considered the Jinsui Army behind the Japanese.

Now after being reminded by the chief of staff, Wang Ping became worried instead.

The purpose of these Jinsui troops going deep into the base area is for Linfen City, and now Linfen City is in front of them, and no one can guarantee whether they will attack at the critical moment and intervene.

If this is the case, the situation tonight will be chaotic.

Li Wen next to him was in a hurry: "Regimental Commander, Chief of Staff, we must not allow the Jinsui Army to occupy Linfen City!"

"You don't know that the first thing the division from the Jinsui Army did after entering the villages and towns along the line was to recruit ordinary people to build garrisons and fortifications for them, and then put up the recruiting signs!"

"The recruiting of the Jinsui Army is paid for the army, and the Jinsui Army has a great influence in Shanxi. After a few days, many ordinary people have signed up to join the Jinsui Army. I am worried that if things go on like this, it won't take long. The people there will only recognize the Jinsui Army and not our Eighth Route Army, and the Jinsui Army will take root there, and we will not be able to drive them away even if we want to!"

Chief of Staff Zhong Chenggong immediately asked, "Does the political commissar know about this situation?"

"I know that the political commissar has arranged for political cadres to go deep into these villages and towns to do work. The Jinsui Army does not allow troops to enter these villages and towns, but local cadres, especially local cadres, have no reason to stop them from going home."

"However, there is a situation that has not been reported to the political commissar: One night when we monitored a regiment commander of the Jinsui Army, we heard a piece of information. The anti-Japanese government in the base area will fight against it!"

"Those local cadres are already on their way here, we must make preparations in advance!"

Zhong Chenggong and Li Wen turned their attention to Wang Ping almost at the same time.

Both of them are soldiers, so it's okay to let them fight wars, but it's impossible to engage in political struggles.

Wang Ping did not speak with a sullen face, and it took a long time before he replied: "The Jinsui Army formed a government in the name of the World War II zone, and we have no reason to object. Don't forget, Chief Yan still has the title of Chairman of the SX Provincial Government on his head!

"Ignore these for the time being, let's fight the battle tonight first. After the battle, we will deal with the Jinsui Army!"
