The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

Chapter 736 Li Yunlong: There is no silver 300 taels here (first update)
"Break the situation?" The chief of staff asked Okamura Neiji's meaning for a while, with a puzzled face.

Neiji Okamura nodded, strode to the sand table, and pointed to Yizhong Plain for analysis.

"The terrain here is very suitable for our army's mechanized troops to deploy and launch large-scale decisive battles."

"Compared with the mountains and hills in North China, our advantage in fighting here is more obvious."

"It means that the Yizhong Eighth Route Army is more likely to be wiped out by us than other Eighth Route Army."

"Taking the base of the Eighth Route Army in the center of the wing will free up our troops stationed in the center of the wing to support other battlefields."

"Then defeat each one and destroy the other Eighth Route Army."

"The Eighth Route Army operating in North China will suffer heavy losses in this operation."

"The combat pressure of the North China Front Army will also drop."

"We will never have a situation where no soldiers are available."

The chief of staff suddenly showed an expression of enlightenment, looked at Neiji Okamura with admiration, and quickly replied: "The commander is wise, but the headquarters has not received any reply from the Kwantung Army."

"We seconded two main divisions at once."

"Even if the Kwantung Army is strong and strong, the two divisions should not be underestimated for them."

"They will definitely discuss it before replying to us."

Neiji Okamura shook his head, frowned and replied: "There is no time..."

"When they hold a meeting to discuss the results, Baoding City will be lost. How can we severely injure the Yizhong Eighth Route Army outside Baoding City and take the opportunity to take down the Yizhong base."

"Your Excellency Commander..."

The communications staff officer suddenly rushed towards Neiji Okamura with a very agitated expression, and hurriedly reported before he could stand still.

"The Kwantung Army called back: They promised to support one of our main divisions."

"The assembly will be completed within two days, and we will go south on a military column to support Baoding. Please prepare for the response."

Neiji Okamura was very dissatisfied with this result, and shook his head and replied: "There is only one division, too few."

"Immediately contact the Air Force to get the plane ready. I want to go to the Kwantung Army Command in person. The sooner the better."

At the Baoding Garrison Headquarters, Major General Kawasaki is dreaming of counterattacking the Eighth Route Army in the wing.

Chief of Staff Cun Shangzhong Zuo suddenly ran over with a mysterious expression on his face: "General, the matter you explained to me has been arranged."

"A total of two infantry brigades."

"With the squadron as the unit, reinforce the city defense force with great fanfare."

"After going around the top of the city, I immediately rushed to several garrisons to lurk."

"The humble office has strictly ordered the resident security forces to step up their guard and not allow anyone to approach."

"The troops eat dry food during the lurking period, and no one can expose the target, otherwise the military law will be followed."

The corner of Major General Kawasaki's mouth immediately turned up, and he said happily: "There are two whole infantry brigades, enough for the Eighth Route Army to drink a pot."

"I plan to wait for the decisive battle between the two sides, the Eighth Route Army enters Baoding, and then let them enter the battle, wipe out all the Eighth Route Army that entered the city, and kill them as a blow."

Lieutenant Assistant Cunshang hesitated for a moment and asked, "General, is it too risky to do so?"

Major General Kawasaki shook his head and replied with a cold snort: "Adventures mean high rewards."

"If you don't take risks, just rely on simple offensive and defensive battles. Even if two thousand ambush soldiers are exhausted at the top of the city, they will not be able to kill a few Eighth Route Army."

"Only in this way can they consume a lot of their vitality."

Lieutenant Assistant Cunshang felt that it was a bit inappropriate to do so, and continued to remind: "I am worried that after the Eighth Route Army enters Baoding, it will be difficult to beat them out."

Major General Kawasaki replied confidently: "It's not as difficult as you imagined."

"The Eighth Route Army in Yizhong has limited strength."

"Two to three thousand people were lost in the offensive and defensive battle, and at most four to five thousand people were left to enter the city."

"Our city defense force has at least 5000 people left, plus [-] fresh troops. The superiority in strength and terrain is in our hands. There is no reason why we can't win."

"Besides, do you think the Eighth Route Army dares to fight us to the death in Baoding City?"

"I estimate that as soon as the [-] new troops enter the battlefield, the Eighth Route Army will take the initiative to withdraw from Baoding and end the battle."

"We don't have to think about losing at all."

"It is to consider how to cut off the Eighth Route Army's retreat, keep more Eighth Route Army in the city, gather and destroy them."

"The more we eliminate the Eighth Route Army in the counterattack, the less pressure we will have to attack the Central Wing Base in the future and completely wipe out the Eighth Route Army in the Wing."

Cunshang Zhongzuo was persuaded by the head of the brigade.

At the same time, the masculine concerns were replaced by self-confidence. Looking at Major General Kawasaki's fanatical eyes, he looked forward to asking.

"General, what shall we do next?"

"Stick to Baoding step by step." Major General Kawasaki replied.

"Don't make any other moves, so as not to arouse the suspicion of the Eighth Route Army outside the city."

"Martial law continues in the city, and no one is allowed to move except for the troops."

"There must be a lot of Eighth Route Army intelligence agents hiding around us."

"The secret of the two thousand ambush soldiers must not be revealed."

On the East Gate battlefield, Li Yunlong was slowly poking his head out from the offensive position to observe the latest situation of the Japanese and puppet troops in the city.

It was quiet up there, and nothing could be seen except for the barrels of guns sticking out into crenels.

"You little devil, Gou Ri, you are really well hidden." Li Yunlong frowned, cursing to himself.

"There is no silver 300 taels here."

"The deeper they hide, the more conspiracy they have."

"I, Li Yunlong, have never seen such a big storm, so I won't be frightened by such a small trick."

"Wait, no matter what schemes you have."

"I will type it out."

"See the tricks and break the tricks, and take Baoding."

After finishing speaking, he asked the chief of staff at the side: "How many explosives do we have left from the Feilei Cannon?"

"Less than two hundred..." the chief of staff said in a familiar way.

The only regiment has no political commissar for the time being, and the chief of staff is the logistics manager of the regiment. No one knows the ammunition reserves of the only regiment better than him.

"It can no longer be used..." Li Yunlong thought for a while and replied.

"The last time we broke through the north gate of Baoding, the troops entering the city relied on flying thunder cannons to keep pushing forward, severely injuring the little devil."

"Especially when the Japanese and puppet troops launched a counterattack against us."

"A row of explosives was fired by the Flying Thunder Cannon, and the Japanese and puppet troops exploded a large area as if they were sent to death."

"I must save some explosives to use in the city, just in case."

After speaking, he began to give orders: "Let the mortar connect."

"A group of three mortars, specially aimed at bombing the little devil's heavy machine gun."

"Under normal circumstances, there are at least five little devils around a heavy machine gun. If we can kill all five little devils with three shells, we will make a lot of money."

"Then organize the sharpshooters in the regiment to Lao Tzu, distribute the best rifles, and hunt and kill the Japanese and puppet troops exposed on the city wall for Lao Tzu."

"If you think your marksmanship is good enough to hit the crenel, you can shoot and kill the Japanese and puppet soldiers hiding behind the battlement."

"Don't save bullets for me."

"How much the battlefield consumes, how much I will replenish for them."

"Strive for a sharpshooter to kill ten Japanese and puppet troops for me before the general offensive."
