Chapter 1386 Little devil spreads leaflets
Send the weapons and equipment to the Eighth Route Army headquarters. The things still belong to their Eighth Route Army.
The situation is different for Mr. Yan. As long as this batch of equipment reaches the territory of the Eighth Route Army, can he still want it back?
"Political Commissar, Lao Tian, I'll leave the family affairs to you. Keep an eye on Ding Yucheng, and the newly formed reconnaissance battalion directly under the headquarters must also replenish its strength as soon as possible. The scouts must be veterans. If the number is not enough, we will recruit from below.
The reconnaissance companies of each regiment were transferred, and ten people were assigned to each regiment." Zhao Zhiguo said.
Fortunately, Gangcun's attack had just ended. In a short period of time, the Japanese army could not raise supplies for tens of thousands of troops, so Gangcun would not launch a large-scale attack on Zhao Zhiguo and the others.
Small sneak attacks can only be carried out by various group leaders. If they can't handle this matter well, they are not worthy of being group leaders.
"Commander, don't worry, you don't have to worry about things at home," Tian Kezhi said, "Liu Qingsheng, please protect the commander's safety on the road. If something happens to the commander, let me skin you."
"Chief of Staff, don't worry. We will ensure that our commander is escorted back safely."
Zhao Zhiguo and his party drove ox carts and horse-drawn carriages, pulling loads of supplies, toward the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army.
At the same time, Mr. Yan also set off. The team around him was also packed with large and small bags, with a lot of weapons and ammunition. Those escorting Mr. Yan were all elite soldiers from the Jinsui Army. Following Mr. Yan were two more
Individuals, one of them is Cao Jiyu.
During this trip, Mr. Yan was not worried at all. Under his nose, Cao Jiyu would hook up with Zhao Zhiguo.
Instead, Mr. Yan can use Cao Jiyu to test Zhao Zhiguo and get unexpected news from Zhao Zhiguo.
In the second battle zone, two important figures left their defense zones.
There is no intelligence at all in Gangcun. It can only be said that the Japanese army's intelligence system is no longer what it used to be.
Since the troops withdrew, although Gangcun has not recovered from the fall, it has also suffered a big emotional blow.
The cavalry regiment was almost completely wiped out, with only 800 cavalry remaining. The armored force lost all its armored vehicles and tanks, and more than half of its soldiers were lost.
The troops advancing frontally failed to capture a single position, and were beaten by Zhao Zhiguo until their noses were bruised and their faces were swollen.
Fortunately, the surviving cavalry fled to Bingzhou City, and planes had picked up all the Japanese cavalry officers. As for the remaining cavalry and armored units, they were replenished to the Japanese division in Bingzhou.
Nobles will always be nobles, soldiers will always be soldiers, and the gap between them is unbridgeable.
The strict hierarchy within the Little Devil Army is not only reflected in the relationship between superiors and subordinates, but also in their social class.
The nobles can escape from the war zone by plane, while others have to stay and live and die with Bingzhou.
"Your Excellency, Commander, the captain of the cavalry wing has withdrawn to the rear. According to orders from the homeland, he will return to the homeland in a few days and stay away from the war."
Many Japanese soldiers envied these people who could return to their homeland to reunite with their relatives, but they knew that this kind of thing was not their turn. Only nobles had this privilege.
Although these people are officers, they are not irreplaceable. Even if they die, their ashes may not be able to go back.
"Does the headquarters have any requirements for us...for me?" Gangcun asked.
He almost ruined all the cavalry and armored regiments. If the Japanese Army General Staff Headquarters ignored him, it could only mean that they were indulging Gangcun.
"I heard some gossip," the Japanese officer said.
Gangcun slowly raised his head and looked at the Japanese officer seriously, waiting for his answer. No one could take the initiative in this kind of matter.
"Your Majesty has come forward!"
These five short words reflect Gangcun's status among the Japanese army.
With the support of the little devil's boss behind him, even if the cavalry and armored forces were completely destroyed, no one would say anything.
"I want to study Zhao Zhiguo!" Gangcun said.
Gangcun has been studying Zhao Zhiguo since he took office as the commander-in-chief of the North China Front.
He was already familiar with the battles that Zhao Zhiguo had commanded and even participated in, but he knew very little about Zhao Zhiguo himself!
"Commander-in-Chief, we are already preparing information in this regard."
"Convene a meeting. I want to know why our troops on the ground have been unable to advance. After tens of thousands of troops struggled for several days, they couldn't even take a single position? Is this still our imperial army?"
The little devil boasts every day that he is invincible in every battle, belittles the Chinese army as a piece of disorganized sand, and claims that he can destroy China in a few months.
Now a little Zhao Zhiguo has blocked their steps, and the boast they used to boast has really become just a boast!
However, Gangcun can still accept failure. If he fails, he will fail. Fortunately, the loss is not very big. He will sum up his experience and find Zhao Zhiguo's weaknesses when he attacks next time.
The Japanese army believed that they could not take the position for two reasons. First, their artillery fire seemed to be unable to effectively attack Zhao Zhiguo's position. Second, the firepower of Zhao Zhiguo's troops was within a range of 200 meters.
An army can organize powerful firepower.
The kind of firepower within a range of 200 meters made the Japanese soldiers who were lucky enough to survive only feel chills on their backs.
But the little devils could not find the specific reason why their artillery fire could not destroy Zhao Zhiguo's position, and what allowed Zhao Zhiguo's troops to organize such strong firepower.
Even when the Japanese troops retreated, they did not invade Zhao Zhiguo's position for a closer inspection.
Finally, with the help of the cavalry and armored troops, they were able to gain a strong foothold. They didn't even stand on the position for ten minutes before they were covered by the firepower of Zhao Zhiguo's artillery regiment.
"Then find out the reasons for these two problems. If you don't find out the reasons, from now on, you commanders and brigade commanders will personally lead the charge with your troops."
Gangcun issued a death order to his men. If you can't figure out the reason, you will die on the way to charge in the future.
How could Zhao Zhiguo and the others figure out their positions so easily? Since Pingcheng had air defense troops, Japanese reconnaissance planes no longer dared to fly at low altitudes.
The Japs’ scouts could not enter Zhao Zhiguo’s defense area. As for the puppet army’s scouts, they not only deceived themselves but also the Japs. These puppet soldiers only needed to go out and inquire with the common people before they dared to come back and report that they had obtained important information.
For information, find the little devil to collect the reward.
But a Japanese brigade commander still came up with a way, which was to use their planes to drop leaflets on Zhao Zhiguo and his troops.
