Li Guotao smiled and said, "Captain Lin, I didn't mean to target you.I just think that the task assigned to us by the military region is to contain the Japanese army in order to achieve the goal of preparing for the frontal battlefield.The Miura Brigade and the Osawa Brigade of the little devils have obviously given up the sweep of our main forces and have instead cleared out the small units left behind in our base area.Yes, what Captain Lin said just now is right, if we go to fight this group of little devils, we will definitely be able to achieve greater results, but it will not be able to relieve the slightest pressure on our main force, then our battle will have no substantive significance. ”Lin Feng wanted to open his mouth to refute, but he couldn't refute it, because he didn't admit that what Li Guotao said was reasonable, but Lin Feng was still a little unconvinced, "Then according to what you say, we should try to block this little devil in the river and reduce the pressure on the main force But this little devil is numerous, and our strength is only so little, more importantly, after the battle at the airport, the consumption of weapons and ammunition in the troops is extremely serious, how to fight this battle" Lin Feng's worries are not unreasonable, yesterday's battle, In order to be able to successfully complete the task, the fighters changed their old style and did not save bullets at all, and when the fight was over, the ammunition was almost consumed.Although Lin Feng had captured the ammunition depot of the little devils, the ammunition depot was full of aerial bombs or large-caliber machine gun bullets of fighters, and they couldn't use them even if they were counted, so they could only blow them up.Chief of Staff Sun nodded and said, "What Li Guotao said makes sense, from the overall situation, it is inevitable to try to block this little devil in the river."
Although this group of little devils is strong, it is almost impossible for us to stop this group of little devils, but even if we can delay them for a day, the main force can relieve a little pressure.However, Lin Feng's worries are not unreasonable, with the ammunition we have now, we can't support the consumption of a big war at all. ”"Ammunition" Li Guotao couldn't help frowning, this problem is indeed tricky, there is no ammunition, you can't let the soldiers fight with the little devil with the bayonet, then they are not enough to see now, the number of troops is more than eleven, in this case, choosing to fight with the little devil with a bayonet, it is tantamount to sending death in vain.Several people couldn't help frowning, Li Guotao's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said with some excitement: "Ammunition is very important to us, but it is even more important for the little devils, the weapons and equipment of the little devils were originally good, but our Eighth Route Army is short of guns and ammunition, if our little devils do not have enough ammunition, so that the gap between us and the little devils will be narrowed invisibly." ”"You mean to defeat the baggage troops of the little devils," Chief of Staff Sun was the first to react."
Yes, if you can defeat the baggage troops of the independent second mixed brigade, it will be a big loss for the little devil, and it can also effectively deal with the main force."
Li Guotao nodded and said.Chief of Staff Sun couldn't help but show a hint of excitement on his face, nodded and said, "I think Comrade Li Guotao's idea is completely feasible.I just remembered that the information about the 2nd Independent Mixed Brigade was transferred by the Military Region, and it was mentioned that due to the rapid advance of the 2nd Independent Mixed Brigade, their baggage troops had been separated from the main force and left behind, so that we had been given sufficient opportunities."
But what is the strength of the little devil's baggage troops, can we succeed in defeating them.According to the establishment of the Japanese army, a brigade is equipped with a baggage team, the establishment is one hundred and ten people, the main force of the independent second mixed brigade is four brigades, there are at least four baggage teams, and there are at least more than 400 little devils, this is still under the premise of no infantry protection, if the little devils send infantry to protect, even if there is only one infantry team, then at least there are more than 600 little devils, so many little devils, can we eat so many little devils" Lin Feng frowned and analyzed.Li Guotao said seriously, "I think we can try, we don't know what the situation of the devil's baggage troops is, it's better to investigate, it's not too late to make a decision." ”Chief of Staff Sun nodded and said, "There is no other better way at present, so it is decided, I will send someone out to investigate, and first find out the reality of the little devil and make a decision." ”After Chief of Staff Sun finished speaking, he immediately ordered people to go out to inquire about the situation, and the next morning, the troops left the resting place and advanced in the direction of Hejian.At the same time, the main force of the 2nd Independent Mixed Brigade of the Japanese Army left Hejian and continued to advance eastward.Li Guotao followed Chief of Staff Sun and others to investigate the situation together, looking at the mighty little devils on the road, several people were all heavy-faced, thinking of how heavy the pressure on the main force would be brought to the main force by such a force and joining the battle against the main force, how could the mood of several people be good.Chief of Staff Sun frowned and said, "Judging from the current marching speed of the Japanese army, it is estimated that we will be able to reach Cangzhou almost tonight." ”"The little devils are all together, and we don't have a chance at all."
Li Guotao shook his head helplessly and said."
So what we can do now is to try to defeat the baggage troops of the little devils, and this time the task is also very important and must be completed."
Chief of Staff Sun said with a serious face.By noon, the warriors who had gone out to reconnoiter the situation finally returned.Through reconnaissance, it was found that the Japanese baggage troops, a total of five or six hundred, who had been left behind, were now on their way to Hejian, and it was estimated that they would be able to reach Hejian in the afternoon.Chief of Staff Sun said with a serious face, "Since the devil's baggage troops are left behind, they will definitely be in a hurry, and it is estimated that they will not stop at the river tonight, but continue to advance in the direction of Cangzhou across the river." ”"Old chief, do you mean to launch another night attack while the little devil is camping in the wilderness," Lin Feng asked first."
This is our only chance."
Chief of Staff Sun nodded and said.Li Guotao nodded and said, "The chief of staff is right, although the combat effectiveness of the little devil's baggage troops is not as good as that of other troops, it is not a rabble.We don't have an advantage in terms of forces, and we don't have enough ammunition, so a sneak attack at night is our only chance. ”While a few people were talking, a soldier hurriedly ran over, "Report to the chief of staff, I just found out the news that there is a puppet army, about four or five hundred people, just arrived in the river." ”"What is this, where did this puppet army come from" Chief of Staff Sun's face couldn't help but change, this suddenly appeared puppet army completely disrupted their previous strategic deployment.Because the devil's baggage troops and horses are also going to the river, if these two groups of enemies are combined, it will be troublesome.aa2705221:
