Jagged Changjin Lake: Kill the enemy and become stronger

But after studying the map, they were dumbfounded.

According to the route mentioned by Lin Heyi, Yushe is the furthest from Xin County.

There are two full-staffed guard companies beside the deputy commander-in-chief. If he wants to defeat them with confidence, he must mobilize at least three squadrons.

However, the garrisons in the counties of Yushe and Qinxian only had one brigade in total. If three squadrons were drawn, there would be only one squadron left.

How can a squadron of little devils be stationed in two counties?

Starting from Yushe, it takes a day and a half to reach Xinxian County, because there are no roads in this section and most of them are mountain roads, so we can only ride horses and not take cars.

It takes three days to go back and forth.

Although three days doesn't seem like a long time, what if something happened to Yushe and Qin County during this period?

If you fail to catch the deputy commander in chief, it will be an extra crime.

And even if it is caught, it means that the merits and demerits will be offset.

Even if nothing happened for these three days, they would still be charged with leaving their posts without authorization.

This is not because the deputy commander-in-chief is not as important as Yushe and Qinxian.

Chapter 730

On the contrary, for the little devil, the deputy commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army is far more important than the two small counties of Yushe and Qinxian.

The problem lies in the deployment of the little devil's army and the geographical location of Qin County in Yushe.

If it is purely for the deputy commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army, as long as the matter can be done, it will be fine even if the two counties are lost.

However, these two places are located at the junction of Taihang District and Taiyue District, and Xin County is located at the junction of Jinchaji and Northwest Shanxi.

From the perspective of the military division, even if the opponent is the deputy commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army, it is not their turn to make a move.

Yangqu, Yangquan, Yuxian, Qingyuan, Gujiao and other places in the middle lined up, all of which had troops garrisoned by little devils, and these troops were closer to Xinxian County and had more troops.

Under such circumstances, there is no reason for the little devils in Yushe and Qinxian to rush to Xinxian through these occupied areas in the middle.

If you apply to your superiors, your superiors will definitely not agree.

If you send out troops privately, if you are unsuccessful, you will cause a lot of trouble. If you succeed, your credit will be greatly reduced, and it will even cause conflicts with other little devil troops.

Because doing so is obviously to grab credit.

So it doesn't make sense to do this.

Several little devil officers originally planned to take this opportunity to soar into the sky, but after figuring out the doorway here, they discovered that there are conditions for soaring into the sky.

At least one pair of wings is needed, but they are only reptiles and cannot fly.

Missing the huge bounty and missing the promotion, for a while, several little devil officers became dejected, and began to regret why they were sent to this ghost place.

Since he can't do it himself, what should the deputy commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army do?

The greedy mentality of the little devil was fully reflected at this moment.

If you can't eat meat, then find a way to drink some soup. You can't get big credit, but small credit is fine.

While Lin Heyi was wolfing down a table of chicken, duck and fish, several little devil officers held their heads again and began to discuss how to maximize their profits.

According to common sense, after obtaining this information, they should report to their superiors, that is, their wing captain.

But based on their understanding of this boss, if they reported the news to him, nine out of ten would only get a verbal compliment, and they would not think about anything else.

Because the captain will do everything possible to take the credit for himself.

Since the joint captain can't do it, what about the brigade commander?There is also a division head above the head of the brigade.

But there are so many layers of superiors, and the insignificant credit has been exploited layer by layer. How much can they have in their hands?

After much discussion, they decided to take a risk and contact the commander of the No.13 Army, Lieutenant General Ito Kunihiko.

This is the highest level of boss they can contact. After all, the higher the level of the boss, the more they can highlight their contribution.

They captured people, and they also asked for information. The only regret is that they can't implement it by hand.

If it weren't for the level restriction, I'm afraid they would have to contact the Emperor directly.

Soon, a phone call went directly to the headquarters of the Little Devil's Thirteenth Army in Changshan.

When Kunihiko Ito learned that the call was actually made by a major, it was the first time he had spoken with such a low-ranking officer, and he was very upset at the time.

But when he heard what was said on the other end of the phone, all the unhappiness was immediately swept away, and with a smile on his face, he praised the low-level officers on the other end of the phone whom he looked down upon, and promised to invite them Gong, and repeatedly urged to take care of Lin He.

After hanging up the phone, Kunihiko Ito resisted the excitement in his heart and hurriedly called a meeting at the Army Staff Headquarters.

The military-level staff headquarters is naturally different from the staff headquarters of the Fujiwara brigade, at least there are not so many useless staff in it.

Of course, at the level of Ito Kunihiko, the view of credit is another point of view. Naturally, it is impossible for him to rush to Xin County in person. First, there is too little time, and second, whether he personally captured or killed the deputy commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army , the difference is not significant.

As long as this information reaches his ears, then his credit is certain.

And what he needs to do is how to properly arrange this matter.

After an emergency meeting with the General Staff Headquarters, Kunihiko Ito made a decision and continued to report to his superiors.

He doesn't need to report to the higher level in order to seek greater benefits like those little devil officers. He only needs to report to his immediate superior, Commander Katsumura Yota of the North China Theater.

He is qualified to contact the emperor, but in fact it doesn't make any difference whether he reports to the emperor or Yota Katsumura. His credit has been fixed and cannot be increased.

There are no absolutes in this world, and Kunihiko Ito knows this very well.

Even if he already knew the time and location of the deputy commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army, including the deployment of guards around him.

Before the final result comes out, he can't guarantee that he will be able to succeed immediately.

What if something unexpected happened along the way?

The deputy commander-in-chief temporarily changed the course of action, what should I do if I was in vain?

The Eighth Route Army will not be captured without a fight. The two sides will definitely exchange fire when they meet. What if the deputy commander-in-chief escapes in the chaos?

Benefits are often accompanied by risks. Ito Kunihiko really wants the credit, but he doesn't want to bear the responsibility. Therefore, he needs someone who can take risks with him.

And Katsumura Yota is the best candidate.

Immediately, Kunihiko Ito contacted the commander of the North China Theater Front Army, reported the information to him, and introduced his plan.

The entire northwest of Shanxi belongs to the invasion range of the Thirteenth Army, so this matter can only and must be done by the Thirteenth Army. As the commander of the army, Kunihiko Ito has the responsibility to formulate relevant plans.

Katsumura Yota was also very excited when he learned of this information. He initially affirmed Ito Kunihiko's plan, but then he said that the matter was of great importance and he also needed to report to his superiors.

The person Yota Katsumura reported to was Hideshi Yoshino, commander of the strategic area who had issued a reward.

The reason is very simple. He can think of what Kunihiko Ito can think of. He is not worried about someone taking credit, but he needs someone to share the risk.

The information leaked from Lin Heyi's mouth finally reached Hideshi Yoshino after many twists and turns.

Although Hideshi Yoshino attached great importance to the deputy commander-in-chief, and even personally issued a reward announcement, there were too many things in the entire strategic area that required him to make decisions, and it was impossible for him to devote all his energy to the deputy commander-in-chief alone.

In an institution like the military, people with high IQs do not necessarily have high ranks, but after reaching a certain level, they must have high IQs. This has to be admitted.

After receiving the news, Hideshi Yoshino calmed down after a short joy. As the commander of the strategic area and the rank of general, he has the right to decide and dispose of this matter.

The deputy commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army is of great significance. What can be done to maximize the benefits?He began to think.

Soon, he had an idea and gave orders to Katsumura Yota.

First of all, it is necessary to ensure the success of this operation. After all, his reward announcement has been sent out for so long, but it has not received any results. This opportunity is once in a lifetime.

Chapter 730 Capture the Deputy Commander Alive

Secondly, the life safety of the deputy commander must be guaranteed, that is to say, he must be caught alive.

The previous reward announcement was life or death, because there was no other way, the little devil couldn't find the deputy commander at all, so he could only promise to get rid of him with great profits.

But now that he already knew where he would appear, it was natural to catch him alive.

The deputy commander can be said to be the formidable enemy of the little devil. Killing him can certainly solve a serious problem in his heart, but if he can be caught alive, the value he can exert will be even greater.

The little devil's way of thinking is to put interests first, otherwise he would not have launched a war of aggression.

In terms of greed for profit, all little devils are the same, whether they are their emperor or ordinary soldiers.

Finally, Hideshi Yoshino asked Yota Katsumura to be prepared to deal with subsequent developments.

The Deputy Commander was arrested, the Eighth Route Army will definitely not let it go, and we must be prepared to face the Eighth Route Army's counterattack and retaliation. If possible, we can also take this opportunity to take the initiative to attack the Eighth Route Army and expand the results of the battle.

In short, Hideshi Yoshino not only wanted the deputy commander, but also wanted to severely damage the Eighth Route Army.

After receiving the order, Yota Katsumura knew it well. After hanging up the phone, he thought for a while, raised his head and smiled at a fat man sitting on the sofa: "I have something urgent to deal with. I will arrange your affairs. Go back and wait for news."

The fat man immediately stood up and bowed deeply with some effort: "Your Excellency Katsumura, if this matter can be settled, then I swear in the name of His Majesty the Emperor that Fujiwara Kujo will be your most loyal person from now on." subordinate."

Fujiwara Kujo?

Fujiwara brigade leader Fujiwara Kujo who disappeared?

"Hehe, I have already felt your sincerity, so go."

Katsumura Yota continued to smile and waved his hand.

Fujiwara Kujo bowed deeply again, shaking his fat and leaving.

After he left, Yota Katsumura picked up a pen and began to draw on the paper.

Since Yoshino Hideshi has given him full authority to handle this matter, he can naturally understand the mind of his immediate boss.

He doesn't need to worry about how to implement it, but he needs to make up his mind on some key points.

Half an hour later, he picked up the phone and called Kunihiko Ito, explaining in detail.

"Yes, I will do my best to do my best, and I will not disappoint you."

Kunihiko Ito held the phone and promised respectfully.

Katsumura agreed with his plan of action, but emphasized some important points.

Kunihiko Ito stared at the map laid out on the table and studied it carefully.

Although the goal this time was only a single team, he was under unprecedented pressure. This feeling was no less than commanding a large-scale battle.

According to the information disclosed by Lin Heyi, there is enough time, and the key lies in how to deploy it.
