Chapter 1044: The Japanese Army's Suspicion (Third Update!) )

"Deputy Chief of Staff, we are rich, we are rich...... The four mortars and four heavy machine guns brought out by the devil were all captured by us, and by the way, two hundred shells were also captured, which not only made up for all our losses tonight, but also made money~" Regiment Commander Zhou, who had just withdrawn from the battlefield, reported excitedly as soon as he saw Wang Ping.

"Also, in the ambush battle just now, we also captured more than one hundred and sixty puppet soldiers, and now they are helping us carry the booty!"

Wang Ping's face was very calm, without surprise or shock, this result had long been expected by him.

"If nothing else, the harvest of the other two regiments should be good!"

"In this way, all the captured heavy weapons will replenish the troops, and the extra light weapons and more than a hundred prisoners, you will take out a company and send them to the rear, and when the time comes, they will be handed over to the military region for unified arrangement...... As for ammunition, all replenish the troops...... If there are more, wait for one or three or two regiments to withdraw and replenish them directly! ”

"Now there are still three hours left before the retreat at four o'clock in the morning, and we can continue to fight~"

"However, the devil will definitely not be easily fooled again this time. However, even if they are not fooled, our shells can be smashed into their garrison to achieve no small results! ”

"So, don't be afraid to waste shells, don't worry about fighting boldly, even if a few shells kill a devil, we will earn ......"

Three days later, the devils had already entered the Suide Military Region for more than 60 kilometers, and as long as they fought one more day, they would be able to reach the Yellow River.

Seeing that each of his subordinates had a pair of panda eyes, even though it was still four o'clock in the afternoon, Yongsheng Dazuo resolutely gave the order to stop advancing.

Nearly 3,000 troops, as if they had discussed it, sat directly on the road and began to rest.

Yongsheng Dazuo is slightly better, riding on a war horse, and you can also take a break during the march.

"Sir~ The troops are really tired, if we continue like this, if we encounter a decisive battle between the Eighth Route Army and us, the combat effectiveness of the troops will be weakened by at least thirty percent, or even more, due to exhaustion!"

"Also, the chief of staff reported that they were also attacked by the Eighth Route Army in the same way, and the troops were very tired!"

"He plans to march forward only for half a day every day, and the remaining half day to rest under the cover of aviation to replenish his physical strength and energy!"

"As for the night, disperse the garrison as much as possible, reduce the casualties caused by the shelling to the troops, and the troops can rest for as long as they can!"

Yongsheng Daisa's mind quickly worked, thinking about the feasibility of this method!

After a minute, he replied helplessly: "Although this has slowed down the speed of the troops' sweeping, the casualties have also been minimized." What's more, the troops will not be so tired! ”

"Now that we are almost at the river, it will be a matter of time before we force out the main force of the Eighth Route Army to fight a decisive battle with us, unless they are willing to use all the base areas east of the Yellow River. Therefore, the urgent need for delay now is to restore the combat effectiveness of the troops and be ready to fight a decisive battle with the main force of the Suide Military Region of the Eighth Route Army at any time! ”

"In addition, contact the division and regiment headquarters and ask them to arrange for the garrison to come to Liulin as soon as possible to take over the base area of the Eighth Route Army that we have taken to prevent them from resurrecting!"

The adjutant immediately left the tent to give orders, but returned after less than ten minutes of walking.

Looking at the co-captain who was closing his eyes and recuperating, he hesitated for a long time before he mustered up the courage to report.

"Sir, I just received a telegram that the baggage troops carrying ammunition supplies to us were attacked by a small group of troops of the Eighth Route Army on the road, and then they were ambushed, all ammunition supplies were lost, and the escort troops were all wiped out!"

"What?" Eisheng Daisa's closed eyes suddenly opened, and he got up from his chair with a rub, staring at the adjutant and asking rhetorically.

"Why is there still the Eighth Route Army behind, wasn't the Eighth Route Army driven by us all the way to the river?"

The adjutant immediately replied: "The troops left behind report that it was not the main force of the Eighth Route Army that attacked the transport team, but guerrillas and small units, which were poorly equipped and not strong in combat effectiveness. It's definitely the fish that slipped through the net in the process of our sweep! ”

Yongsheng Dazuo's face looks a lot better, but he is still very dignified.

"There is also a possibility that before our sweep began, they ambushed a force behind us to cut off our logistical supplies!"

"Impossible, how could the Eighth Route Army be so carefully arranged, it must be an accident!" The adjutant shouted in disbelief.

If the co-captain's inference is correct, then his opponent, the Eighth Route Army, is too terrifying.

Yongsheng Dazuo frowned and analyzed: "Nothing is impossible! ”

"According to the average combat intensity, the ammunition we carry with the army is enough for seven days. Now, in addition to the shells, the remaining ammunition is enough for only one day. And don't you feel strange that we used up so much ammunition and didn't even fight a slightly larger decisive battle with the Eighth Route Army? ”

"I am very suspicious now, in addition to the consumption of our troops, there is another reason for the various sneak attacks of the Eighth Route Army on us in the past few days, and that is to consume our ammunition!"

"Without ammunition, needless to say to continue the offensive, even self-preservation is a problem!"

The adjutant was also anxious, staring at Yongsheng Dazuo and asking, "Sir, what should we do then?" ”

"Two steps! Regardless of whether the Eighth Route Army left troops in their rear or not, whether this is a conspiracy or not, the ammunition supplies we urgently need must be delivered! ”

"The first step is to let the remaining troops send heavy troops to escort the baggage troops to deliver ammunition supplies to us. In the meantime, contact the Chief of Staff to confirm if there is the same problem on his side, and if so, ask the remaining troops to send the ammunition supply together! ”

"The second step is to contact the division and regiment headquarters, and immediately transfer the garrison troops to the base area of the Eighth Route Army that we have taken!"

"We have too few troops now, except for the two-way attacking troops and the remaining troops, there are almost no mobile troops available, which is very dangerous. What happened behind the bullet, not even the troops! ”

"As long as the division headquarters can send two thousand garrison troops over, I will have at least one brigade of mobile troops in my hands. Even if the Eighth Route Army hid a brigade behind us and had an infantry brigade in hand, I would not be afraid! ”

The adjutant was in a hurry, and as soon as Yongsheng Daisa's order was finished, he rushed out of the tent.

A few kilometers away from the assembly site of the Eighth Route Army, after receiving the news that the devils had stopped and were preparing to set up camp, the three regiment commanders directly showed an eager expression on their faces.

On the first night, the three regiments killed nearly 1,000 Japanese puppet troops, and on the second night, although there were a lot less, there were only four or five hundred people.

At this time, everyone was looking forward to the fall of night, and then they touched the vicinity of the Japanese puppet army's station, and continued to use the old methods to sneak attack the devils and consume the devils.

Wang Ping, who was sitting in front of everyone, was unexpected, and his face was not good-looking.

The brigade commander next to him couldn't help but ask: "Deputy Chief of Staff, do you think about the devil's cavalry wing anymore!" ”

"The devils are too cautious, too cunning, and would rather not have the mobility advantage and powerful assault ability of the cavalry, and they do not divide their forces...... As long as they don't divide their forces, it will be very difficult for us to take out their cavalry wing! Wang Ping didn't hide it, and directly said the problem that was bothering his mind!

The head of the first regiment, Li Fuquan, said with a look of indifference: "Deputy Chief of Staff...... I think you're thinking too much~ If the devil doesn't divide the troops, he won't divide the troops, let's fight his infantry first, and when the infantry is finished, it doesn't matter to us whether they divide the troops or not! ”

Wang Ping didn't want his mood to affect the morale of several regiment commanders, so he immediately put away his emotions and replied: "Commander Li is right, ignore the cavalry first, fight his infantry, the soldiers will block, and the water will cover the earth." After the infantry, the remaining cavalry will naturally pop up! ”
