Before the strategy and tactics in Yang Mingzhi's mind were officially announced, his subordinates recommended themselves one by one.

Yang Mingzhi stomped his feet: "Don't fight!" Give me all the quiet! ”

The noisy command quickly fell silent.

"I know, you all have strong combat effectiveness, and I can actually let anyone fight. However, let one regiment go up, the others will definitely not be happy! In that case, the 2nd Regiment, the 1st Regiment, and the Paratrooper Brigade, each of which has a battalion. And you, Balzen, your business joins it. The main attacking force of this battle is these four battalions, and you form a special infantry regiment. Well, it's Balzen who is the head of the regiment! ”

This order caused an uproar among those present, and no one was more shocked than Balzen!

"Commander! You made me the commander of this temporary infantry regiment?! I ......"

"What? Can't you do it yourself? Then I'll change to someone else! ”

"Don't! I can do it! Balzen stepped forward, "I will live up to your expectations!" ”

Because of the previous war, Yang Mingzhi was very suspicious and even thought that Balzen was indeed a reckless man, and he had been given many opportunities, and he really lacked command of more than 1,000 troops to fight.

It was the end of March, and Balzen's style of operation was one word - recklessness.

He could indeed think of some interesting schemes, but in the face of a large number of enemy troops, he was not afraid at all, but it was difficult to suppress the impulse in his heart, and he was eager to use the few troops and horses at hand to deal a fatal blow to the enemy. At the end of March, he was halfway successful, and the troops with insufficient stamina were soon beaten like sons by the counterattacking enemy.

As a result, the troops suffered a lot of losses, who is the main person responsible? It's him Balzen.

It's been almost three months, and hearing Balzen's words today, Yang Mingzhi can't help but feel itchy in his heart, maybe in three months, this guy has finally become smart.

Yang Mingzhi actually has an element of whim, his words are military orders, which cannot be taken back, and Balzen is the commander of this mixed force!

But after thinking about it, if Balzen wanted to be reckless again, except for his descendants, the other three battalions might not listen to him. Under normal circumstances, the first prerequisite for an army to win a battle is to resolutely obey commands, but in this operation, perhaps it would be more appropriate for their four battalions to restrain each other.

Because of this operation, Yang Mingzhi did not intend to destroy the enemy's defenses with the thunderous blow of rocket artillery, and let the troops take it quickly.

He decided to take a more vicious approach against the Germans - to encircle the points and send reinforcements!

Looking at the combat style of this time and space, there are already a few countries whose armies like to use this tactic. At least the commanders of the Soviet army rarely thought of such tactics, after all, at the Frunze Military Academy, the so-called standard style of modern warfare was also taught. That is, with strong forces and heavy firepower, knock down the enemy head-on. When conducting major battles, countries generally prefer to use pincer tactics, that is, large-scale encirclement.

The Germans set a record for encirclement operations in Kiev, capturing more than three times as many enemy soldiers as they killed and wounded!

The author of the theory of war believed that war should destroy the enemy's living force, and later generations of generals studied this strange book, and even more so in actual combat. Prompting the mass surrender of the enemy is equivalent to destroying the enemy's living forces, which is extremely efficient.

However, the ultimate goal of the combat style of encirclement and reinforcement is also to destroy the enemy, but the biggest difference from the encirclement and annihilation war is that its so-called elimination of the enemy is to really kill a large number of enemies!

Considering the current situation of the guerrilla republic, a large number of prisoners of war were captured, and the military and civilians were actually reluctant! Almost all civilians whose family members were killed by the Germans had a simple long-cherished wish to kill an enemy themselves.

If there is any tactic that can eventually cause the enemy to die on a large scale on the battlefield instead of killing prisoners, the only thing Yang Mingzhi can think of is the tactic of encircling the point to send reinforcements.

This tactic was once used in the first operation against Homnitsch, when the German 707th Division successfully took the bait, and the battle eventually turned into a melee in which the two sides invested thousands of men, and the 284th Division won its first great victory.

It was a great victory that the military and civilians talked about, and Yang Mingzhi naturally wanted to reproduce it!

"In this operation, the total of four battalions sent are all under the command of Balzen! I know you may be dissatisfied, this is a command, and you must obey! In addition, this operation is also quite special. I really have no plans to ask you to liberate Loyev in one fell swoop! In my opinion, the city is a great bait, like Homnich did half a year ago. We will surround Loyev and let the enemy know that our troops are approaching the city!

We know that the closest enemy to our army is the German 707th and 722nd divisions, which are old opponents of our army! I really hope that they will be as simple as they were half a year ago, and send a large force to relieve the siege of Loyev, and once they do, there will be no need for your three regiments to quarrel! At that time, you will all go to the front for me! Let's fight another big battle! ”

This remark inspired the fighting enthusiasm of the soldiers!

Yevlov said with great interest: "In that case, we should give combat orders to all troops!" After all, we are no longer what we used to be, and the combat troops alone are close to 20,000 people! ”

Yang Mingzhi nodded: "That's true." But the elite troops are only eight thousand people, and the combat effectiveness of the rest of the troops is not high! ”

When Yang Mingzhi said these words, he did not shy away from Peroniski and Medvedev again, these two actually have self-knowledge. However, some words were not easy to say directly, so he changed his tone: "This operation is similar to the previous big war model, the main force bears the most difficult troops, and the other troops serve as strategic reserves. If the enemy were to attack in an all-out way, we would have to send all our troops over. Now, officers, stand up! ”

Then, Yang Mingzhi walked to the map wall again, picked up a small stick in his hand, and began to announce the official battle plan.

Yang's plan is divided into three phases.

The first stage, that is, the period of encirclement of troops. At this stage, the special mixed regiment surrounded Loyev without fighting, and only used non-stop cold guns and cold artillery to destroy the exposed enemy, announced that the Soviet troops were approaching the city, and forced the enemy to call for help. Among them, a battalion of the paratrooper brigade reached the left bank of the Dnieper through the Missy crossing, from where it went north, attacking the enemy bridgehead and preventing the enemy from escaping from the bridge. In this battle, the only Type 1224 gunboat carried out water shelling cover.

At the second stage, the remaining units of the 1st and 2nd regiments of the 284th Division were transferred to Khomnich and camped in the forest. The full force of the paratrooper brigade reached the left bank of the Dnieper through the Missy crossing and laid an ambush in the forest. As soon as the main German forces wanted to increase the number of troops in Loyev, the command ordered specific troops to block the attack.

In the third stage, if the enemy's main forces carry out a full-scale counteroffensive, the entire armed forces of the guerrilla republic will carry out an all-out counterattack. If the enemy stops the counterattack, the besieging forces immediately occupy Loyev.
