That night, Zhang Chengcheng received a new order from Captain Yoshida to the maintenance meeting, and not only was he not worried, but he was very excited.

Because he saw a new fighter appear. When he saw the instructor coming, he said with a happy face.

"Instructor, it's too late for you to come."

"This afternoon, the Japanese army dispatched two reinforced squads to reinforce the Zhongcun and Zhouzhuang strongholds, and I arranged two platoons to sneak attack along the way, and after more than an hour, each infantry platoon killed more than a dozen little devils, which is equivalent to killing more than 10% of the strength of the Japanese mobile troops."

The instructor reminded: "Company commander, this is indeed good news, but we can't take lightly the devil's decision to grab food from us at the gates of the strongholds, but I don't think you seem to be taking it to heart at all." ”

"They rely on their strongholds to fight us, they can attack, they can retreat, and they have heavy weapons to support, if we don't make adequate preparations, we will definitely suffer a big loss in the firefight, and the food that will be sent over will also be robbed by them."

The excited expression on Zhang Cheng's face was not affected in the slightest, and he replied confidently: "Don't worry, instructor, I have already thought of a solution." ”

"Not only will we not suffer, but I will also make the little devil lose a lot."

"They fought well, they chose the battlefield at the gate of the stronghold, and if they really fought, they would take advantage of all the benefits."

"But I haven't agreed to fight them yet."

"As long as I don't nod my head, this little devil's order will blind us, and it doesn't mean anything to us."

"Pass my order, the troops blocking the stronghold retreat 500 meters, and build another defensive line."

"Two lines of defense each garrisoned an infantry platoon, mortar and heavy machine gun mobile combat."

"If there are devils who kill the stronghold, they must first pass through the first line of defense, and then they can fight to the second line of defense and compete with us to maintain the food that will be delivered."

"The maintenance of the escort food will be a rabble, as long as the first line of defense blocks the devil's attack for five minutes, the troops guarding the second line of defense can intercept all the food and then slip away."

"In the end, the little devil will not only get nothing, but will also slam his nose on the first line of defense."

"This is called: I will retreat when the enemy advances, and I will advance when the enemy retreats."

In the stronghold of Guanshan Town, Captain Yoshida was very satisfied with the plan he had formulated to grab the grain, and he thought that there were no loopholes.

The first thing I do every day is to ask the attacking troops if there is any good news to send back.

But the good mood was interrupted by a rush of phone ringing two days later.

"Sir, the Zhongcun stronghold reports: The batch of grain to be received this afternoon has been snatched by the Eighth Route Army." The lieutenant put down the microphone and reported with a solemn face.

The smile on Captain Yoshida's face froze on the spot, and he exclaimed incredulously.

"How is it possible, the stronghold garrison plus reinforcements are more than 200 people, and they are also equipped with a large number of heavy weapons, relying on the stronghold to fight, attacking and retreating, how can they lose."

"Also, there are only a few dozen Eighth Route Army blocking the gate of the stronghold, even if the mobile troops fight with them, they can kill all the Eighth Route Army and grab back the food."

"What are they eating, so many troops and heavy weapons can't do dozens of Eighth Route Army!"

"Sir's anger!" The second lieutenant hastened to explain.

"It's not that the stronghold garrison and reinforcements are incompetent, it's that the Eighth Route Army is too cunning."

"They built another defensive line a kilometer away from the stronghold, cutting off the road, blocking the ditch, blocking the wall."

"The food that was escorted by the maintenance club was robbed by the Eighth Route Army when it reached this line of defense."

"By the time the imperial army broke through the first line of defense of the Eighth Route Army, they had already taken food and left."

"Not only that, but when attacking the first line of defense of the Eighth Route Army, they also used mortars and heavy machine guns, and the Imperial Army suddenly opened fire when it was about to occupy the defensive line."

"The attacking troops were taken by surprise and lost almost twenty people on the spot."

Captain Yoshida was about to be blown up, and his anger bubbled out, but he couldn't say a word.

Faced with the new way of playing of the Eighth Route Army, he couldn't think of the slightest solution.

The deputy captain relieved the siege and said: "Sir, I suggest that the mobile troops be gathered and go deep into the hinterland of the blockade area, and directly let them escort the grain and send it to several strongholds. ”

"In the face of the new fighting method of the Eighth Route Army, the scattered mobile troops not only suffered greater casualties, but also did not receive a grain of food, and lost their wives and soldiers."

"Going deep into the blockade area to personally escort food, although it will bring a lot of casualties to the mobile troops, but the mobile troops have a large number of people, even if they are attacked by the Eighth Route Army, as long as they do not divide the troops, they can send the food to the stronghold."

"The food stocks in the two strongholds of Zhongcun and Zhouzhuang are only enough to last for three days, and if there is no food to replenish them, they will be hungry, please consider carefully."

Captain Yoshida clenched his fists and shouted unwillingly, "Just do as you say." ”

"There must be no accident between the two strongholds, otherwise the blockade ditch and blockade wall we have worked so hard to build will become decorations, and will be completely destroyed by the Eighth Route Army, and the so-called blockade area will also exist in name only, and we will also become sinners of the empire."

"Therefore, the first batch of food escorted by the mobile unit was sent directly to the two strongholds to ensure that their morale was stable."

As soon as the Japanese army moved on the front foot, Zhang Cheng received the news on the back foot.

"Company commander, the Japanese mobile unit has been dispatched." The instructor found Zhang Chengcheng and reported excitedly.

"News came from the village maintenance associations: the Japanese told them to complete the grain requisition within one day, and all the grain was loaded into trucks and parked at the maintenance meetings."

"The Japanese will send troops to the villages to inspect and inspect in person, and then escort the grain back to the stronghold."

"The time is set for the day after tomorrow."

Zhang Cheng smiled, laughing heartily for the first time in a few days, without any worries.

After a few months of fighting, he became more and more confident in himself, and the troops in his opponent became more and more confident.

In his eyes: as long as the Japanese puppet army leaves the stronghold, he will have a way to consume them in large quantities.

After staring at the map for half a minute, I had an idea in my head: "What the Japanese army can mobilize now is the mobile troops scattered in three strongholds. ”

"Our strength is not what it used to be, if the devil divides his troops to go deep into the hinterland of the blockade area to escort food, it will be his own death, and he will create opportunities for us to break through."

"I'm sure the little devil Captain Yoshida knows this."

"So they must assemble first, and then concentrate their forces to escort the food together."

"We have two things to do next: first, after the Japanese puppet army leaves the stronghold, we will do everything we can to hold them back."

"The longer we stay outside the stronghold, the more opportunities we have to kill the devils, and the more results we will definitely achieve."

"The second thing is to kill devils and protect food."

"Before the Japanese puppet army assembled, each platoon divided its troops to attack the mobile unit of the Japanese puppet army."

"After the Japanese puppet army assembled, we also assembled."

"After the recruit platoon entered the hinterland of the blockade zone, it followed them and destroyed the road, so that the grain trucks they were escorting could not go."

"The other units are under my unified command, using movement warfare and guerrilla warfare to fight the devils, and strive to make them give up food halfway and return to their strongholds on their own."

"There aren't many opportunities like this, and if you miss them, you won't be able to miss them, so we must seize the time and kill as many devils as possible."
