Chapter 1045: Exceeding Authority (First Update!) )
Wang Ping's words made the three regiment leaders excited again.
In particular, the commander of the Second Regiment, because he had his own assistance in commanding, the results of the two nights of night raids were the greatest, and the benefits of the second regiment were also the most.
Today, although the 2nd Regiment has two companies less, it has only a lot more armament, especially mortars and heavy machine guns.
The guy in hand is good, and there is plenty of ammunition. As the head of the regiment, he definitely wants to continue to make trouble with the devils.
"Commander, give the order! Tonight, our second regiment will also kill at least 150 Japanese puppet troops to avenge the comrades who died on the battlefield! ”
"Yes, revenge!"
The second regiment leader's answer directly caused a large number of voices of approval, and then stared at Wang Ping waiting for an order.
Wang Pingxin comprehended the divine order and analyzed: "The night before yesterday, we killed more than a thousand puppet troops, and yesterday we killed four or five hundred people. In addition to the cavalry, artillery, and the remaining infantry in the hands of the devils still has 1,500 people in the sky. If we kill 500 of them tonight, if we fight like this for two more days, the Japanese puppet army in front of us will be consumed by us! ”
"Now I command ......"
Before he could continue, a telegraph operator rushed over, holding a telegram in his hand, and interrupted directly.
"Chief, a telegram forwarded by the commander!"
"The third brigade left behind in Liulin just killed a baggage squad of devils and captured a large amount of ammunition supply~"
"The devils on the front line are out of ammunition!" Wang Ping quickly made a judgment.
There was no solution to the problem just now, and at this moment, a very bold plan directly popped up in my mind!
Then he ordered: "Tonight's operation is canceled, there is a new mission!" ”
Then he ordered the telegraph operator who was waiting next to him: "Send a telegram back to the commander now, and order the commander of the third brigade to launch an attack on Liulin County after dark!" ”
"In addition, draw out the strength of a regiment, attack and advance in the direction of Luliang, and delay the reinforcements that the Japanese army in Luliang may send to Liulin!"
"The remaining two regiments will attack Liulin with all their might, fight as hard as possible, take out all the artillery in your hands, strive to take Liulin in the first half of the night, and then empty Liulin for me, withdraw from Liulin after dawn, find a place to hide and stand by!"
The order he gave just now had exceeded his authority, but in order to seize the fighter, Wang Ping couldn't control it so much.
Seeing that the operator was stunned in place, he didn't react for a long time with his mouth open, and continued to order.
"Still stunned for something, I called the commander back according to the order I just made. I'm sure the commander will understand my overstepping command! ”
Seeing the operator leaving, the anxious second regiment commander followed and asked, "Deputy Chief of Staff, what about us?" Operation canceled, what are we going to do tonight? ”
"The troops rested all day during the day, and everyone was well fed, drunk, and in good spirits, just waiting for you to give the battle order......"
"Cavalry, tonight, let's kill the devil cavalry wing!" As soon as Wang Ping opened his mouth, he frightened several brigade commanders into shock, and they didn't react for a long time with their mouths open.
The commander of the first brigade was the first to react, stared at Wang Ping and asked, "But, deputy chief of staff, didn't you just say that there was no way to deal with the devil's cavalry wing?" ”
"If they don't divide their troops, we can't help them!"
"Wait a minute, I seem to understand...... After dark, the 3rd Brigade attacked Liulin County, and Liulin hoarded the devil's ammunition supply for two months, which must not be lost. ”
"The reinforcements on Luliang's side are unreliable, so they can only send troops back to Liulin by themselves."
"The infantry is slow, and it may not take two days to get back. In the end, I can only send the cavalry back, the cavalry is fast, as long as there is no accident, you can rush to Liulin County in three hours! ”
Wang Ping replied with admiration: "Brigade Commander Zhang, your analysis is good, my general plan is like this!" ”
"Tonight, we are divided into two steps, and our forces are divided in two."
"A regiment, stay here, act according to the original plan after dark, and continue to attack the Japanese puppet army garrison at night!"
"The other troops followed me, set off after dark, rushed here, and ate the cavalry wing that the little devils came to help!"
Looking at the location on the map that was pointed by Wang Ping, the few regiment commanders who had just reacted from the shock were stunned again!
Brigade Commander Zhang frowned and reminded: "Deputy Chief of Staff, are you mistaken!" ”
"There is a small plain, the terrain is flat, it is a rare piece of fertile land for dozens of kilometers around, there is not even a small plateau, a small mountain beam, how to fight the devil cavalry troops!"
"I've never fought cavalry, but I've heard it. Such terrain is not only unfavorable to us, but on the contrary, it is conducive to the cavalry to exert its mobility and powerful assault capabilities! ”
Wang Ping replied with a confident face: "Brigade Commander Zhang, if you can think of this, the devil will definitely be able to think of it too." ”
"Therefore, in the eyes of the devil cavalry troops, even if we want to block them and fight them, we will not choose here!"
Brigade Commander Zhang quickly reacted: "Surprise the devil by surprise!" ”
"It's just one aspect!" Wang Ping explained.
"Fighting cavalry in such terrain, the devil will definitely be very arrogant, and then desperately launch a surprise attack on us, using the strong maneuver and assault advantage of the cavalry, to attack us. And what I need is a deadly attack of the devils, the more they don't want to die, the faster they will die on the battlefield, and the smaller our casualties will be! ”
"How is it possible~" Brigade Commander Zhang had a disbelieving expression on his face.
In his opinion, on the battlefield, the infantry almost had no room to fight back in front of the cavalry, let alone block the cavalry attack head-on, which was simply suicide!
Wang Ping did not explain, and replied very confidently: "Follow my orders...... Tonight, we're here to take out the devil's cavalry wing! ”
"As soon as the devil's plane leaves the battlefield, we will set off......"
The Japanese wing command, Yongsheng Dazuo, was in a very bad mood, but the reply from the division commander gave him a renewed hope of defeating the Suide Military Region of the Eighth Route Army.
After reading the telegram, he was very satisfied and said: "Two garrison brigades, plus two regiments of the Imperial Cooperative Army, when we arrive in Liulin, the mobile troops in my hands will not only have one more brigade of Imperial Army, but also one more regiment of Imperial Cooperative Army." In this way, our rear is more solid! ”
"Send a telegram to the Liulin garrison now to inform you of the situation!"
"The troops sent by the division will leave tonight, and if nothing happens, they will arrive at noon tomorrow. So, after daybreak, at least one reinforced squadron of infantry was dispatched to cooperate with the baggage troops to deliver ammunition supplies to us! ”
"Hi...... Humble and send a telegram now! The adjutant's face also looked much better, and he replied immediately.
"Sir, something happened to Liulin~" Soon, the adjutant rushed back with a solemn face. Seeing Yongsheng Dazuo, he hurriedly reported.
"Liulin County called back, and since half an hour ago, troops of the Eighth Route Army have appeared around the county. Now there are more and more Eighth Route Army gathered around them, almost a regiment, look at the posture and want to attack Liulin tonight! ”
"Artillery, they also found mountain artillery for siege in the middle of the Eighth Route Army outside the city!"
"Also, chaos has also begun in Liulin City, and there have been several incidents of the Imperial Army and the Imperial Association Army being shot and killed. They judged that there were many troops of the Eighth Route Army lurking in Liulin City, ready to fight with the attacking troops outside the city inside and outside, and take Liulin again! ”
"Mountain artillery for siege...... There is also the ...... of Naiying," Yongsheng Daisa's brow furrowed again.
Then he analyzed: "There is only one reinforced squadron left in the second brigade in Liulin City, one reinforced squad and two baggage squadrons left behind, plus a temporary garrison battalion of the Imperial Association, the total strength is less than eight hundred, if the Eighth Route Army that attacked them does have siege artillery, they will definitely not hold out until dawn tomorrow!" ”
"Immediately send a telegram to the remaining troops and ask how many troops of the Eighth Route Army are outside the city. If there is only one regiment, even if they have siege artillery, the remaining troops can abandon the city walls and concentrate their forces to hold on to the material warehouses and ammunition depots, and they can hold out until dawn! ”
