Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 300 The raid begins (second update!)

The Japanese army headquarters in Laiyuan City and the Ono Brigade were in a very good mood.

Since the commander of the Qingshan Valley Transit Station, Kato Dazuo, commanded the troops to severely damage the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army, the supplies, weapons and ammunition transported to Laiyuan City have never been attacked again.

In less than half a month, the supplies and ammunition reserves needed by the Ono Brigade to dispatch troops were enough.

With supplies and troops in his hands, Ono no longer had any worries about the encirclement and suppression operations.

"Chief of staff, according to the order of the military department, our encirclement and suppression operation is under our own command, and we will fight independently. The military department will not leapfrog command, and will provide us with sufficient air support. Therefore, I ask the staff department , Come up with a complete battle plan!"

"Hi!" The material transportation was smooth, and the chief of staff also breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he stared at Ono and asked, "I don't know if Your Excellency the General has any request!"

"Of course we wipe out our old rival, the Independence Regiment!" Major General Ono replied without hesitation, and then there was a gritted expression on his face, which showed how deep Ono's hatred for the Independence Regiment was.

The chief of staff stared at the map for about a minute and then replied: "According to intelligence, the Eighth Route Army is active in other places in Laiyuan except the county town and Qingshan Transit Station, and they have also formed a large number of guerrillas and local forces in these places. force."

"The idea of ​​the humble post is: the whole army will be divided into infantry brigades and a regiment of the Imperial Association Army as a unit, and the troops will be divided into multiple groups to sweep all the villages controlled by the Eighth Route Army. When encountering resisters, they will be wiped out on the spot, and the Eighth Route Army will be driven back to the mountains step by step!"

"Finally, concentrate all our troops and firepower, gather and annihilate them here, that is, where the Independent Regiment is stationed, and solve this malignant tumor in Laiyuan in one fell swoop!"

"I agree!" Major General Ono nodded in satisfaction.

Then he continued: "But you must pay attention. The Eighth Route Army is best at guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare. After the division of troops, each unit must be prepared for the Eighth Route Army to use individual methods to destroy our attacking troops!"

"Also, we now have the strength of nine regiments of the Imperial Association Army, as well as a large number of guns and air support. These forces must be used well. Especially the Imperial Association Army troops. If used properly, they can greatly reduce the imperial army's siege operations. casualties!"

"Hey, Your Excellency General, I have written everything down, and I must follow your instructions!" The chief of staff replied very respectfully.

Ono was very satisfied with the current performance of the chief of staff, and affirmed with a smile on his serious face: "In this case, then do as you said, and formulate the battle plan for me as soon as possible!"

When the Independence Regiment was stationed, the Ono Brigade of the Japanese Army and the Laiyuan Security Division of the Imperial Association Army began to make final preparations for the ensuing encirclement and suppression, the Independence Regiment also began preparations.

In the headquarters of the Independent Regiment, Chief of Staff Zeng Quan, Political Commissar Cheng Xiao, Political Department Director Deng Hongtao, and Logistics Director Jiang Hongchun, who had just returned from the military region for a few days, all stood around a table with a map in front of Wang Ping.

With the enemy at hand, Wang Ping did not hesitate, and asked Zeng Quan directly: "Chief of Staff, how are the troops preparing?"

"The main force of the regiment, the county brigade, the district squadron, the district squad, and the guerrillas in each village are all ready. During this period, the patrols at all intersections in the base area have also been strengthened to prevent the devils from sending troops to infiltrate our base area in advance."

"Currently, the first battalion and regiment headquarters guard company stay at the regiment headquarters!"

"The second battalion, the third battalion, and the firepower battalion are all outside the mountain. Because we defeated the Xiaoye brigade last time and seized several radio stations, there are still five radio stations after handing them over. Now each main battalion of the independent regiment is equipped with a There are two radio stations in the regiment headquarters, which are convenient for contacting and commanding operations. Therefore, as long as we have orders, they can receive them at any time. If they have any information, the regiment headquarters will receive it as soon as possible!"

"Very good! Order all the troops outside the mountain to hide. Before the anti-encirclement and suppression operations begin, all troops must not expose their targets!" Wang Ping ordered with a serious face.

Wang Ping then turned his attention to Jiang Hongchun.

Before he could open his mouth, Jiang Hongchun had already comprehended the report.

"Regimental commander, political commissar, materials and ammunition for anti-encirclement and suppression, I have prepared!"

"The main force, I have sent them two basic ammunition, and the local troops have sent one basic ammunition. As for the guerrillas, although there are a little less, each gun can average [-] rounds of ammunition, which is enough for them It’s used to beat devils coldly!”

"In addition, the one thousand ceramic landmines you gave me, commander, were all finished five days ago, and have now been distributed to all the guerrillas and local troops. When the devils attack, they will definitely be able to give them a huge surprise!"

"I will also box all the remaining ammunition. No matter which unit needs ammunition, the logistics department will ensure that it will be delivered within one day!"

Wang Ping has always been very satisfied with Jiang Hongchun.

Therefore, after listening to the report, Wang Ping directly turned his attention to Deng Hongtao who was in charge of the base area.

"The head of the regiment, the political commissar, and the mobilization work in the base areas have almost been done. After the hostage incident more than half a month ago, the people in the base areas have completely recognized the nature of the devils. In particular, we rescued those who were taken hostage by the devils. After the people, the support of the folks has reached the point of unconditional.)”

"As long as the evacuation order is issued, each village can guarantee that the evacuation will be completed within two hours, and the walls will be cleared, and nothing will be left for the devils."

Wang Ping was very satisfied with the result, and then said proudly: "Since everything is ready, let's use practical actions to tell the devils that our independent regiment is not something they can destroy if they want to encircle and destroy it."

In the blink of an eye, ten days passed.

The gate of Laiyuan City is still open at ten o'clock in the morning as usual.

However, the city gate was opened, and the people gathered at the city gate were not allowed to enter the city, and twenty were directly dispersed by dozens of Japanese and puppet troops who rushed out.

Then I saw a group of heavily armed devil soldiers drive out of the county town and take over all the positions at the gate of the city.

After another half an hour, there was finally movement at the heavily guarded gate of the city.

A mixed force composed of the Imperial Association Army and the Japanese Army, carrying heavy machine guns and mortars, dragging infantry artillery and mountain artillery, and a cart full of various supplies, walked out of the city gate mightily.

"The devil's mopping up has started, and the regiment headquarters must be notified immediately!" The leader of the investigation squad, who was lurking at the gate of the city, immediately reacted.

"Go and inform the battalion commander of the third battalion that the devils have begun to mop up! You go and inform the nearest guerrillas, fortify the walls and clear the fields, and use guerrilla warfare to hold back these Japanese and puppet troops!"

"The others set off with me, go directly to meet these devils for a while, and teach them a lesson first!"
