The Japanese army was independently mixed into a brigade headquarters, and the chief of staff walked in in a hurry, his face complicated.

After seeing Nakata Yama Lang, he hesitated for a few seconds before reporting.

"General, the garrison is dispatched."

"A total of three troops, marching through the blockade line and into the area occupied by the Imperial Army."

"How many people are in each unit and how is the equipment?" Nakata Yamaro was very confident in his layout, his face was not shocked, and he asked calmly.

In his eyes, the occupied area he is responsible for has been woven into a big fishing net by himself, and the strongholds are the nodes in this big net, and the mobile troops in the stronghold are small nets.

As long as the garrison regiment enters the area occupied by the imperial army, it will enter the big net prepared for them.

If the small nets prepared by each stronghold are pounced in time, then they will be tightly covered by the two nets, and it will be impossible to escape.

The Chief of Staff immediately reported: "Each of the striking units consisted of nearly four hundred men, well-armed, and with them a great deal of heavy weapons. ”

Nakata Shanlang's eyes lit up and he replied: "Four hundred, with my understanding of the garrison regiment, it is exactly half a battalion of troops. ”

"The three strike troops add up to one and a half battalions."

"As soon as we were about to encircle and suppress the guerrillas that had just emerged in the occupied areas, they were dispatched on the back foot, and they dispatched so many troops at one time, which is not a small plan."

"However, it is all in our calculations."

"They definitely didn't expect that as soon as they set out, they would get into a big net prepared for them by the imperial army."

"Order the commanders of all defense areas on the front line to immediately dispatch mobile troops to encircle and annihilate them."

"These troops must have brought reinforcements for the guerrillas, and we must not allow them to succeed in their plot."

"Concentrate our forces to kill them first, and then encircle and suppress those guerrillas, so as to completely solve the hidden dangers in our rear."

The more Nakatayama spoke, the more excited he became, as if victory was just around the corner.

The chief of staff stood beside him, and the more he listened, the more solemn his face became.

The news he brought was diametrically opposed to the brigade commander's assumptions, and he didn't know how to continue reporting it when he saw the brigade commander so happy and completely immersed in the dream he had conceived.

But the military situation is urgent, even if the brigade commander vents all his anger on himself, the report still has to be reported, and it can't be delayed for a second.

Stubbornly interrupted: "General, our front-line commander did exactly that. ”

"But these Eighth Route Army sorties are too cunning."

"Before our mobile units were in place, they went missing."

Nakata Yamaro stared at a pair of big eyes and asked rhetorically, "Nani? Missing, how is this possible. ”

"Are the intelligence officers and maintenance committees responsible for monitoring these three forces all pigs?"

"The occupied area is full of imperial army eyes, there are so many of them, how can they not even keep an eye on the three troops, how can they suddenly disappear."

The chief of staff hesitated for a moment and explained: "General, ten days ago, the occupied area was indeed full of imperial eyeliners. ”

"Not to mention four hundred, even if it is a hundred, as long as they enter the area occupied by the imperial army, their every move will be under the supervision of the imperial army."

"But now it's a different story."

"After those guerrillas came out, although they did not threaten the safety of the imperial army."

"But the eyes of the Imperial Army, which were scattered in their areas of activity, were devastated."

"At least one-third of the villages in the occupied area we currently manage have been turned back into blind spots for the Imperial Army, especially those near the mountainous areas, and the Imperial Army has almost no idea about the situation there after maintaining the end of the territory."

"I guess that those Eighth Route Army must have connected with the guerrillas, and under their leadership, they got rid of the imperial intelligence officers, entered their activity area, disappeared from the sight of the imperial army, and let our mobile troops pounce on us."

The smile on Nakata Shanlang's face disappeared, and he replied with a calm face: "Eight Grid Tooth Road, I didn't expect the last problem to appear inside us." ”

"I underestimate the fact that the guerrillas, who are not even equipped with a few machine guns, can play such a big role on the battlefield."

The chief of staff hurriedly comforted: "The general is angry, it is all of us who underestimate the strength of these guerrillas and their role on the battlefield. ”

"Now that all three units of the garrison are missing, we believe that our top priority is to find them."

"The troops of nearly 400 people are also equipped with a lot of heavy weapons, and the sweeping troops sent out by many strongholds are not opponents."

"If they are targeted, these sweeping forces will definitely be attacked, and they will be killed before reinforcements arrive."

Nakata was angry about the accident, but he didn't lose his mind.

He's a battle-hardened veteran and knows that the more calm he gets.

His eyes quickly shifted to the map next to him, and he began to give orders with a calm face: "Inform the heads of each defense area that the attacking troops smaller than one squadron will immediately retreat, rely on the stronghold to strictly defend them, and do not give the garrison regiment a chance to attack them." ”

"The sorties formed in the large strongholds and county towns will move immediately, and they will take over the mobile units that have withdrawn and continue to encircle and suppress the guerrillas."

"As for the vanished garrison detachment troops, leave them alone."

"As long as we continue to attack and encircle the guerrillas, they will come out on their own."

"Either we will directly attack our mobile troops through ambush warfare, or we will force our mobile troops to withdraw through the usual tactics of encircling points, attacking strongholds, and attacking from the east to the west, so as to relieve the pressure on their guerrillas."

"No matter which way they choose, with the strength of mobile troops and various strongholds, they can hold out for at least an hour after being attacked, and then drag them down."

"And an hour is enough for our mobile troops to quickly rush to the battlefield, make the enemy's dumplings, and kill them."

The chief of staff's eyes lit up, and the worry on his face was gone.

Seize the opportunity to compliment: "The general is wise." ”

"In this way, even if these three-way attacking troops join up with the guerrillas and disappear from under our noses with their help, they will not be able to escape the encirclement and interception of them by the imperial army in the end, and they will still be killed by us."

"Humble and give orders now."

Behind a hill next to the road, nearly a hundred soldiers sat on the ground with rifles in their arms to rest and replenish their strength.

Suddenly, a figure rushed over.

"Company commander, the devil mobile unit has really killed, a total of more than 200 devils, more than 300 puppet soldiers, armored vehicles, and cars. I also brought mountain artillery. The second platoon commander gasped and ran all the way to Li Zhiyong to report.

This is the expected enemy, Li Zhiyong was unfazed, and ordered with a calm face

"The old rule is that the troops take squads as units, disperse their actions, use guerrilla warfare to deal with devils, retreat when they fight, and resolutely do not entangle with devils."

"The task of the three squads of the district squadron is the same, they are also fighting and withdrawing."

"However, before the operation begins, the retreat route must be chosen, and the devils must not be allowed to catch up."

"The others are with me, we haven't fought an armored car yet, and today we will try to drive a meat and destroy one."

The platoon commander of the mountain artillery platoon next to him was so happy that he almost jumped up, and shouted with excitement: "Company commander, let's go up." ”

"The protective armor of the devil's armored car is just a layer of iron, and a single shell of the mountain artillery can penetrate it."

"Give me a chance to shoot two shells and make sure to blow up their armored car into a pile of scrap metal."

Li Zhiyong shook his head and replied: "No, you can't move until you have to." ”

"The mountain artillery is too powerful, and if you participate in the war, the movement will be too big, which is not in line with our combat principles."

"We used mines, and this time the attack regiment headquarters sent us a lot of mines, and the explosion of mines and explosives will definitely destroy the devil's iron armored car."

"Bang ......"

The sound of rifle fire suddenly sounded next to the team, and it was a distance of two hundred meters, and it was very difficult to hit the target.

But the formation of the Japanese puppet army was too dense, a row of more than a dozen bullets flew towards a position, the blind cat hit the mouse to death, and there were still two soldiers screaming and falling to the ground.

The devil reacts quickly, rifles, machine guns, shoots quickly.

In particular, the on-board machine gun sticking out of the firing hole of the armored car was fired at the position where the gun had just been fired.

Dense gunfire soon rang out.

But it was as if the enemy had suddenly disappeared, and there was not the slightest movement.

"Stop shooting, don't waste any more bullets, it's definitely the guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army who sneak up on us, hit and run, as cunning as a fox." The leader of the squadron commanded.

"We continue to move forward, directly kill the guerrilla lair, arrest all the Chinese who are related to the guerrillas, and force the guerrillas to come out, otherwise we will kill people."

Gunshots continued to ring out on both sides of the ranks, and devils were constantly killed.

Because the sneak attack was too far, the casualties of the troops were not large, and the enemy hit and ran, not giving himself a chance to counterattack at all.

The leader of the devil squadron ignored it and led his troops to march all the way towards the target.

"Boom ......"

Suddenly, an explosion scared him.

Thick black smoke rose from the front of the line, and the fast-moving troops quickly stopped.

"What's going on? What happened to the explosion just now? The squadron leader shouted anxiously.

As soon as he finished speaking, one of his subordinates rushed over: "Sir, it's a mine, and it's a mine with explosives." ”

"We walked to the front, an armored car was blown up, the bottom plate of the entire armored car was directly blown through, and all the imperial troops inside the armored car were killed."

"Eight Geyalu, cunning guerrillas. When I catch them, I'll have them all torn to pieces. ”

"The troops continue to move forward, I can't wait."

"The troops marched to their lair, arrested all the Chinese, found out what was related to the guerrillas, killed one in five minutes, and I don't believe that they could not be forced."

Two hours later, the Japanese puppet army managed to reach the village.

However, there was no one in the village except for the empty houses.

The squadron leader was like a punch on the cotton, and the anger in his stomach was even stronger.
