The fat man's words suddenly reminded Zhou Wu, and Zhou Wu suddenly thought that the fat man was quite reasonable, why can't he attack the little devils around Huai'an first?
Zhou Wu immediately agreed to the fat man's plan to first hit the devils who were checking on the road in front of him, and the fat man was very happy when he saw that Zhou Wu agreed to his plan, and hurriedly saluted Zhou Wu and said: "Okay, our regiment will serve as the main frontal attack, and the brothers of the special service group will be divided into two groups, and the left and right flanks will cover our attack."
Zhou Wu nodded and said to the fat man: "Don't be in a hurry now, wait for the brothers who reconnoitred in front to come back and deploy troops, according to my estimate, there will not be too many little devils in front."
If the number of devils is less than one squadron, then there is no need to engage in this kind of middle assault, two flanks cover tactics, directly use all the forces in hand, choose one of the weakest points to smash over, no matter what the devils are like this, we don't want to fight with them, rush over and rush to Huai'an City, this time as long as the Miyamoto brigade is transferred out of Huai'an City, and can pursue us to the south, then we have already completed the task of covering Lao Ding Shui and their action team, we just need to hold on to blocking the devil brigade in the south of Huai'an City for two days. ” The fat man heard this, and asked Zhou Wudao: "The Miyamoto Brigade has nearly 7,000 devils, and we only have less than 4,000 troops here, so it should be no problem to resist the devils for two or three days, but it is estimated that the casualties are very large, we have to think of a way to mobilize the devils out of the city and come south, and also minimize the losses of our troops, so it is good, otherwise it is not cost-effective to sacrifice so many brothers of the New Fourth Army just to rescue those Yankees who keep having correct opinions."
Zhou Wu nodded hurriedly when he heard this, he felt very relieved at this time, like the fat man gradually grew up in actual combat, and he would use his brain according to the actual situation in the war, unlike before when he was in the national army, he knew that he was fighting a war of attrition with the devils, Ge Sanmin, Huang Shuisheng and Xiao Zheng They have slowly realized the true meaning of guerrilla warfare through the desperate struggle against the devils again and again, and skillfully use the original experience of positional warfare and sports warfare.
Zhou Wu nodded and said to the fat man: "Fatty, then you talk about it, how should we deal with those devils in front, and how to deal with Miyamoto and our horses in case we encounter a pounce under Huai'an City, so that we can not only contain the devil's troops, but also minimize the casualties of our independent brigade" Zhou Wu wanted to test the fat man.
The fat man shook his head and thought for a while, and said to Zhou Wu: "Brigade seat, I think it is good to deal with those small devil troops blocking the road in front of you, and use your concentrated forces to smash them over, so that you can quickly rush away the devils blocking the roadside, which is conducive to our large army to quickly rush to Huai'an City, causing a situation of soldiers approaching the city, forcing Miyamoto boy to make a choice, either not to go out of the city to meet us, or regardless of the risk of Huai'an City being occupied by us, take the risk of reinforcing Yancheng in the northeast, and our side is much more flexible than Miyamoto.
Wherever his main force is moving, we will follow and chase and bite it, and besides, we can now divide a detachment of several hundred people to rush to Pingqiao Town in the northeast of Huai'an City first, and wait for them there, as long as those brothers who block the attack can hold out for two days, after the chief of staff and they have completed the rescue mission, it will be too late for the little devil to regret it. ” Zhou Wu listened to the fat man's deployment, nodded again and again, and said happily to the fat man: "You are right, the war should be like this, cut off the way it must enter, attack the place where it must be saved, lead the enemy's nose everywhere, and when they are dragged to exhaustion, they will suddenly attack them with heavy troops, and they will be able to achieve miraculous results.
This is also the main reason why the Red Army, which is far less equipped than the Nationalist Army, has been able to defeat the Nationalist Army repeatedly.
Zhou Wu remembered the scene of the fiasco when he followed the old army commander to besiege the Red Army when he was young, and he sighed with emotion, he never thought that he would one day become the successor of the Red Army, the officer of the New Fourth Army.
At this time, the brothers who reconnoitred in front brought detailed assurance, according to the reconnaissance, there are not many little devils in front, there is probably only one squadron, three or four hundred devils, the pseudo-army is actually only half a regiment, it is almost dawn in the early morning, the rainstorm has just stopped, according to the brothers' careful observation, those little devils and puppet soldiers are sleeping in the barracks.
As soon as Zhou Wu heard this information, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly said to the fat man: "Fat man, when the opportunity comes, prepare the troops immediately, find the weakest point of the devil's defense and press all over, break away from the devil's obstacles, and rush to Huai'an City as fast as possible, don't clean up the battlefield and entangle with the surrounding devil puppet army, what we want this time is the word "fast" The fat man immediately replied, beckoned the one hundred and ten veterans with extraordinary skills under his regiment to form a sharp knife company, all of them were issued with twenty box guns, "flower machine guns" and grenades, with enough ammunition, and each of them also carried a machete on his back, and said to the commander of the first battalion who led the team: "First battalion commander, whether our regiment can break through the blockade line of the little devils this time depends on your sharp knife company, listen to my orders, rush forward, destroy all the devil puppet army that dares to resist, and kill a channel for the large army to advance, Even if your task is completed, do you have the confidence to complete this task, if you feel that there are difficulties and problems, speak up now, and I will immediately replace you again."
When the commander of the first battalion heard this, can there be a problem, the first battalion is considered the main battalion in the first regiment, if he is doubtful and confused at this time, then he can still hold his head up in front of the brothers in the future, and immediately puffed up his chest and assured the fat man: "Regiment commander, don't worry, if I can't open the passage in front, you can shoot me well, when will the brothers of our regiment bear the brothers, do you say yes?"
The hundred and ten brothers of the sharp knife company are all old brothers who rushed over from Shanghai and Nanjing with the fat man, after so many years of confrontation with the little devil and the puppet army, there are almost one or two hundred veterans left in a group, this time the fat man gathered all these veteran brothers to form a sharp knife company, what a big determination to make, it seems that this time the fat man is really open, and intends to break through the blockade of the opposite devil squadron in one fell swoop, rush to Huai'an as soon as possible, and contain the Miyamoto brigade out.
"Yes" The morale of the veteran brothers of the sharp knife company is very high, in their eyes, those little devils in front of them are nothing, and the Miyamoto Brigade under Huai'an City is the real opponent of this competition, last time there was a draw with the Miyamoto Brigade in Hudong Town, and now if they meet this time, they can't just let them go so easily, they must see each other.
The fat man drew out more than 200 brothers from a regiment and a special service group, and ordered them to immediately rush towards the direction of Pingqiao in the northeast of Huai'an City after the large army launched an attack, and occupy Pingqiao first, where he blocked the Miyamoto Brigade that might be reinforced to the east, and cut off their eastward route, even if he hit the last remaining brother, he had to defend Pingqiao to the death, and the fat man thought about it again and again, and felt that Pingqiao's sniper position was really important, if Pingqiao couldn't hold it, it would be broken by Miyamoto's brigade, It was all in vain for the regiment and the spy group to fight with the little devils here for most of the day, and he proposed to Zhou Wu: He personally led this sniper team to Pingqiao, and the rest of the troops were led by Ma Xu to attack the devils and the puppet army.
Zhou Wu nodded and agreed, as soon as he saw that the time was almost five o'clock, talk less nonsense, just do it, the fat man gave an order, and the sharp knife company carried by the battalion commander immediately set off to the front, and the fat man then rushed to the northeast with two hundred sniper brothers to Pingqiao, Zhou Wu ordered the rest of the troops to prepare for the attack, once the gunfire rang out in front, all of them were there, and immediately began the general attack The commander of the first battalion ran all the way with the brothers of the sharp knife company, and soon rushed to the camp of the devil squadron in front under the guidance of the scout brothers, only to see that under the canopy of the cloudy sky after the rainstorm, there were only three or four little devils walking back and forth outside the devil camp, and there were a few fixed sentry posts of the puppet army over there The commander of a battalion hurriedly waved his hand to the back, and four groups of brothers with short knives and daggers quickly and quietly touched it, and one by one they slaughtered those mobile devil sentry posts, and the speed was quite fast, so that the little devils who were attacked didn't even see who it was for the last time, and they died with a whimper, and several other puppet army sentry posts couldn't run, and one by one was solved by the brothers of the sharp knife company, and killed seven or eight enemy sentry posts, and the brothers of the sharp knife company only took less than a minute of work in total, The commander of the first battalion saw the brothers in front of him who had succeeded in signaling to him.
The first battalion commander saw that the time was almost up, and hurriedly waved his hand to beckon his brothers to lean up, leaning outside the devil camp, and the first battalion commander asked the scouts: "Have you detected where those little devils live, and where are the puppet soldiers staying?"
The scout brother replied: "Most of the little devils live in those barracks on the left, the puppet army lives in those barracks on the right, the puppet army has a large number, only some officers live in the barracks, and the rest of the puppet soldiers dig trenches next to them to hide from the wind and rain, and the trenches are dug not far from the barracks on the west side." t1706231537:
