Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 892 The determination of the chief of staff (first update!)

The other battalion and company commanders sitting in front of Wang Ping didn't speak, but Wang Ping could tell from their expressions that they didn't have any confidence in the bitter battle ahead.It's just not as straightforward and courageous as Xiong Changhe, and he didn't say it out.

"Ahem..." Wang Ping coughed and drew everyone's attention back to himself.

Then he analyzed: "Xiong Changhe's analysis is not bad. We have no chance of winning against the [-] to [-] elite devils. In front of them, our new regiment is not even qualified to stick teeth. This is the truth, and there is nothing good about it." concealed."

"However, the devils just came, and they came here with murderous intent to wipe out us..."

"Xiong Changhe's proposal just now is indeed the best way for us to face a strong enemy. However, our new regiment has finally grown to such a large scale, and the base area has also expanded to four or five counties. Just give up, are you willing? ?”

"I don't know about you, I just don't want to. Because it's easy for us to give up today, but it will definitely be difficult if we want to fight back in the future. Even if we really have to give up in the end. Before giving up, I have to talk to Xiao The devils will fight to let the people in the base area know that our Eighth Route Army has done its best for them!"

"Of course, the hard work I said just now is not to fight against the little devils, but to consume them bit by bit with guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare that we are good at. Using the strategic depth of our base area, we can drag the powerful devils to exhaustion, and then drag them out." become weaker and weaker, and finally cut off one of their arms!"

Chief of Staff Zhong Chenggong suddenly said: "Head, I have an idea!"

"Strength, as long as we solve the problem of strength and let the troops reach the strength of more than half a month ago, we will have a chance!"

"Even if we can't defeat them, we can still kill one of their regiments! You know, in the war that just ended, our mountain artillery battalion has not moved!"

"A total of twenty mountain cannons, plus the infantry artillery and mortars in our hands, we can totally gather nearly a hundred artillery pieces of various calibers!"

"Using the cover of night, so many artillery bombarded the Japanese garrison at the same time. Even if there was a regiment of little devils in the garrison, we could still hit them with shells so that they couldn't find the north. Then the infantry, under the cover of the armored company and the cavalry battalion, came from all directions. Covering the past, there is every chance to kill an infantry regiment of the Japanese army!"

Seeing Zhong Chenggong who was talking hurriedly beside him, Wang Ping's first impression was that he looked at him with admiration.

In this war, Wang Ping gave him a lot of opportunities to lead troops to fight independently, and even served as the commander and deputy chief of staff for a few days.Now it seems that the experience of the past few days is too useful.

It's been half a month since he's seen, and he's been raised from the perspective of a battalion commander to that of a regimental commander.

With the answer just now, Zhong Chenggong has proved to Wang Ping that he is qualified as the chief of staff of the regiment...

Taking this opportunity, Wang Ping stared at him directly and asked in an aggressive tone.

"I'll give you twenty mountain cannons, at least ten infantry cannons, and thirty or forty mortars. In addition, the armored company and cavalry battalion you mentioned just now, how many infantry do you need to kill a Japanese field infantry regiment! "

Zhong Chenggong didn't expect that Wang Ping, the leader of the group, would actually come, but he didn't give up this opportunity to test himself, and answered after hesitating for half a minute.

"Two thousand infantry... If there are too many, 500 will do, but the casualties of the troops will be greater!"

"Also, the shells needed by the artillery must be in sufficient supply. Mountain artillery and infantry guns must have fifty shells each, and mortars must have 150 shells!"

Zhong Chenggong's self-confidence made Wang Ping confident for the first time in the next hard battle.

Before the meeting, what Wang Ping was most worried about was not the combat effectiveness of the troops.

If the combat power is insufficient, you can use powerful firepower to fight against the devils at night, and overcome the enemy's weaknesses with your own strength.

What worries him the most is the command of the troops. After the devils occupy Linfen, they will definitely split up and attack the new regiment's base in multiple ways.

From the current point of view, the new regiment has the ability to command thousands of people in battle at one time and only himself and the political commissar.

However, the political commissar is in charge of the base areas, the logistical supplies of the combat troops, and the people in the base areas who fortify the walls and clear the fields. It is impossible to go to the front line and only fight.

In this way, all the troops are commanded by himself alone.

Of course, Wang Ping also had an idea at the time to command other troops to fight through remote control through the radio.

But this idea is just a thought, and it is too difficult to implement it.

The battlefield is changing rapidly, and through the radio, many situations cannot be understood.Reckless remote control command will not only distract oneself, but also cause a lot of irreparable losses to the troops.

Now after listening to Zhong Chenggong's reply, and seeing the confidence on Zhong Chenggong's face, Wang Ping's worries disappeared all of a sudden.

Directly affirmed: "Okay, I will give you, unlimited supply of shells, I will give you two thousand for the troops!"

As soon as Zhong Chenggong smiled because he was able to fight independently, a trace of doubt immediately appeared on his face.

"However, Commander, the whole regiment has 2000 people in total, and all of them are given to me. What about the other offensive troops of the Japanese army?"

In the conference room, except for Zhong Chenggong, everyone else stared at Wang Ping with puzzled expressions.

"I've already solved the problem of troop strength for everyone. To be precise, the commander who left yesterday solved it for us!"

"The commander drew 500 people from the direct brigade to stay and join our new regiment!"

"In addition, the more than 800 puppet soldiers who were directly under the brigade were all kept by us. After a day and a night of mobilization by the political commissar, more than 1000 puppet soldiers have decided to join our Eighth Route Army."

"At present, the mobilization is still going on. If there is no accident, we should be able to mobilize 300 people. This means that our new regiment has [-] more battle-ready soldiers!"

The political commissar immediately added: "One more thing, everyone, don't forget that in addition to the main force and the garrison battalion in our fourth division, there are also garrison companies and guerrillas!"

Because they did not undertake combat missions, these local troops suffered almost no losses.Seeing that our main force fought such a big victory, many guerrilla members asked to join the main force, kill devils! "

"I roughly calculated that there are more than 2000 guerrillas in the four counties who strongly demand to join the main force. On average, there are four to five hundred guerrillas in each county, and there are about two or three guerrillas in each village!"

Speaking of this, the political commissar seemed to have thought of something, and continued: "The reason why everyone has such high enthusiasm is that on the one hand, we have established base areas, protected them, and won the hearts of the people. On the other hand, we have issued pensions in a timely manner. The resettlement and compensation for the families of the sacrificed soldiers are also very extensive, dispelling everyone's worries about participating in the Eighth Route Army!"

"According to the requirements of the head of the regiment, all the families of the soldiers who died in battle can receive a one-time pension of 20 yuan. In addition, the family members are exempted from grain tax on five acres of land every year. If the family members have children, our base area will give them some Other subsidies!"

"It is precisely because of these regulations that the people in the base areas enthusiastically join our Eighth Route Army!"

"Currently, these things are being done by your trainers and instructors, but, as military chiefs, you must do a good job in supervision and ensure that every piece of ocean is sent to the family members!"
