Chapter 914: Counting is Counting

The red light of the dazzling fireball from the distant explosion shone into the room through the cracks from time to time, and the lanterns in the room shook with the tremors, and the dim room flickered and dimmed. {with}{dream} щ{suimеng][lā}

The devil's sudden adjustment of tactics made these immature staff officers frown, and the previous battle plan was no longer useful.

In the face of the devil battle teams hiding in the ruins and houses, they either bombarded them all the way through them or filled them with the lives of their brethren.

The tragedy of street fighting is based on this, in a narrow space with limited vision, even the most experienced veteran can be killed by a sudden bullet, a bullet on the ground.

Compared with these immature guerrilla officers and soldiers, it is undoubtedly a foolish decision to fight in the streets with experienced little devils, because the military qualities of both sides are no longer on the same level.

But if you don't fight, then you will withdraw from the battle in such a gloomy manner? They have come to recover Gaoyou City, and if they leave halfway, the blow to morale will be immeasurable.

Several intelligence staff officers and operational staff officers who were blushing and thick-necked were foaming at each other, and finally they all gasped for breath and set their eyes on Yang Ling, who had been silent and did not speak.

"Chief Yang, how are we going to fight?" Staff Officer Lei Xiong couldn't help but break the silence.

Yang Ling's eyes kept on the map when they were arguing, he was thinking about things outside the battlefield.

The little devils did not flee from the south and abandon the city as they had expected, but prepared to defend it house by house.

Is the little devil really not afraid of death? Yang Ling shook his head, the little devil must have something to rely on to dare to fight with them.

After all, now that he had figured out the commander of the devil, it was not a fledgling young officer, but an experienced old fox, as evidenced by the ambush he set up behind.

This experienced devil commander would not have been unaware that in street fighting, at least ninety percent of the time the attacker would win, and of course, there were exceptions.

Since the little devil dared to keep the remnants of the army in the city to fight with them in the streets, then the devil must have a backhand, Yang Ling's eyes cruised on the map, and soon he suddenly realized.

At present, whether it is Yancheng or the devil troops on the front line of the Yangtze River, they are pinned down by a large number of guerrilla troops and regular army troops, and the devils in Gaoyou have received limited reinforcements.

Then the only thing they can rely on now is the puppet army troops scattered in the outlying towns and villages of Gaoyou, and the number of these puppet army troops is still quite a lot.

It's been fighting in the middle of the night in the city, and it is estimated that these peripheral puppet army troops have already received the news, and maybe they are already gathering reinforcements.

Yang Ling was silent and did not speak, and the staff officer Lei Xiong and the others did not dare to disturb, and only a depressing atmosphere remained in the whole room.

But Lei Xiong and the others didn't wait, and after a long time, Yang Ling took his gaze back from the map and raised his head again.

"The devils must be waiting for reinforcements from house to house, and they want to surround us." Yang Ling pointed out the devil's conspiracy to the point.

I'm afraid that the devil commander Qingchuan Shaozuo will also drop his jaw when he hears Yang Ling's words now, but unfortunately he doesn't know.

"According to intelligence, there are now at least three or four battalions of the puppet army near Gaoyou." Yang Ling's voice loudly drew a rough range on the map.

Hearing Yang Ling say this, staff officer Lei Xiong and the others all gasped, if the puppet troops of these battalions surrounded them from outside, they were really turtles in the urn, and there was nowhere to escape.

"Sir, maybe the puppet army has surrounded us from behind, and I suggest that we leave the battlefield immediately, otherwise there is a danger that the whole army will be annihilated." A staff officer immediately opened his mouth with a solemn face.

Most of the people were silent and did not speak, the reason why they ignored these puppet armies on the periphery before was based on the situation of quickly eliminating the devils.

As long as they compress all the devils to the eastern part of the city and eliminate them with infantry artillery at dawn, it will not be fun to free up their hands to clean up the puppet army.

But now that the situation on the battlefield has changed, the devils have begun to fight with them in the streets, and it is no longer possible to end the battle in a short time.

Then once the large number of puppet troops on the periphery gather and give them a counter-encirclement, they will be in danger of being attacked from the belly.

Now they felt a chill rise in their backs, they were in danger now, if they didn't leave the battlefield quickly, and if they stayed for one more minute, it would be one more minute of danger.

Just now I was discussing how to eliminate the little devils, but now I am thinking about how to get out of danger, and the rapid changes on the battlefield really make everyone's heads unable to keep up.

But fortunately, Yang Ling's thinking has always been clear, although the puppet army outside looks at the large number of people, he really doesn't pay attention to it.

"Sir, give the order to retreat." A staff officer saw that Yang Ling didn't speak for a long time, and couldn't help but open his mouth to persuade him.

"Retreat?" Yang Ling looked at the staff officer who spoke, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a sneer: "Why should we retreat?" ”

"Ugh"

Yang Ling's rhetorical question immediately choked up this staff officer, does such a simple reason really need to be said?

"Come and see." Yang Ling beckoned to everyone and asked them to come around.

"Since the little devil wants to counter the encirclement, let's have a plan." Yang Ling pointed to the small black dot marked with Gaoyou on the map.

"You see, this is Gaoyou City, where we are now, the west is next to Gaoyou Lake, and Gaoyou Lake is Yangzhou and the Yangtze River to the south, which is connected by a wide river."

Yang Ling was talking, but the staff officers were confused, what does this have to do with the current situation.

But they didn't speak, knowing that since Yang Ling was so confident, he must have a countermeasure in his heart.

Sure enough, Yang Ling paused and continued: "Doesn't the devil want to give us a counter-encirclement now, if we eliminate their anti-encirclement puppet army, what do you say they will do?" ”

"Either break out or continue to call for reinforcements," staff officer Lei Xiong blurted out.

"Sir, do you mean to cast a long line to catch a big fish?" Liu Sheng's eyes were staring at Gaoyou Lake, and he had already understood.

Yang Ling nodded: "Although the number of puppet army troops is large, but the good and the bad are uneven, as long as we arrange them properly and have nothing to fear, we can quickly eliminate them." ”

"As long as we eliminate these reinforcements of the puppet army, then the nearest devils can be reinforced only by the devils who come by motorboat, since the devils want to stay in the city and fight us, then we will follow his wishes, let's slowly fight with the devils in the city, and then attract reinforcements from the nearby devils, let's eliminate the reinforcements!"

Hearing Yang Ling's words, everyone showed joy on their faces, according to such a way of fighting, they really couldn't wipe out the devils in the city, they had to rely on them to mobilize a steady stream of reinforcements from the nearby devil puppet army, and then take the opportunity to send reinforcements.

Yang Ling's purpose is also very simple, that is, to turn Gaoyou City into a meat grinder, attract a steady stream of nearby devils and puppet armies, fall into their traps, and then destroy them.

The so-called road is one foot high and the devil is one foot high, since the little devil wants to fight with Yang Ling and them and wants to join forces with reinforcements to counter the encirclement, Yang Ling will also plan it, then I will fight your reinforcements.

Moreover, it is not only necessary to fight the puppet army troops that have been reinforced, but also to mobilize your river defense troops to come over and destroy them together, the more the better, so that they can greatly cooperate with the frontal battlefield operations.

And the reason why Yang Ling felt that he could mobilize a large-scale army of devils to reinforce was also very simple, that is, Dongtai, the devils near Yancheng were still counting on this supply transportation line to transport ammunition and materials.

Now that Yang Ling and they are stuck here, it's strange if the devil doesn't go crazy, the devil wants to play a trick with Yang Ling, then it's up to who plays to death!
