Xu Rui, Luo Youdu and the others saw that they were communication soldiers under Gu Jiaping's command.

I saw the communication soldier rushing to the front of the crowd, stood at attention and saluted: "Reporting to the regiment, Chief of Staff, I have received an encrypted radio from Akatsuka Taro, the commander of the Devil's Fourth Division.".

"This is the deciphered telegram."

After finishing speaking, the communications soldier handed Xu Rui a telegram in his hand.

Xu Rui nodded when he heard the words, took the telegram and read it.

"It's just a telegram asking about the situation of Prince Devil Xiyuan Palace Chongren."

Xu Rui handed the finished telegram to Chief of Staff Luo Youdu and said.

"It really is."

After Luo Youdu took the telegram and read it, he said with a smile: "Akatsuka Taro is afraid that we will treat Xiyuan Gong Chongren badly.".

"Are we there? Humph!"

Xu Rui smiled and said: "Hahaha, of course not.".

"Anyway, according to my expectation, he was captured twice by us and the Xinyi Regiment. For Xiyuangong Chongren, this devil will definitely not return to Taiyuan City after he is redeemed. Then If we come down, we may continue to supervise the battle.”

After a pause, Xu Rui continued, "At that time, it is also possible to be captured three times."

"As for Akatsuka Taro's worries, he simply doubts the quality of our preferential treatment of prisoners."

Luo Youdu smiled slyly, and said: "Tuan Zuo, you said this without any hesitation."

"That's natural."

Xu Rui chuckled, and then told the communication soldier who came to report the situation: "Use the previously deciphered secret code that is the only contact we have with the devil, and encrypt the call back to the old devil Akatsuka Taro, how could we treat Xiyuan badly?" Gong Chongren?"

"After all, add 40 yuan for food and accommodation!"

The communications soldier stood at attention and saluted: "Understood, regimental seat.".

Immediately, he turned around and flew down the city.

And Xu Rui then said to Gu Jiaping: "Continue to let the communication soldiers under your command monitor all the radio communications of the little devil.".

"If there is a situation, report to me at any time."

Gu Jiaping, the communication staff officer, nodded and said, "Understood, group seat."

And Luo Youdu said at this time: "After the ransom exchange is completed tomorrow morning, Shinozuka Yoshinan should also decide how many troops he will mobilize to fight back against us in Zhenting City."

"Tanza, how many troops do you think Shinozuka Yoshinan will mobilize next?"

When Xu Rui heard this, he thought about it for a while, and then said: "At least two divisions are needed to counterattack us.".

"Otherwise, Shinozuka Yoshinan will continue to despise us."

Luo Youdu nodded, and he agreed with Xu Rui's words.

You know, the 303rd Regiment joined hands with the Eighth Route Army Xinyi Regiment and other departments to wipe out more than [-] little devils in less than two months.

Under such circumstances, Shinozuka Yoshinan could not just call in a division to fight back.

Inevitably, at least the strength of two divisions is needed to be able to counterattack.

Otherwise, the more than 1 devils commanded by Akatsuka Taro would not have stopped when they entered more than 20 kilometers southwest of Zhenting City, but would continue to advance along the road to Zhenting City.

Therefore, Luo Youdu said: "I think so too."

"Two divisions, based on the calculation of 5000 people in a division, it happens to be [-] devils. If the Royal Association Army is wrong, then we may encounter at least [-] enemy attacks."

Xu Rui nodded and said: "At that time, we can only fight a city offensive and defensive battle in Zhenting City.".

"Once lost, gradually withdraw to the north. In Jiujiangpo, Mingjia Town, Nanliujiang and other places, carry out gradual blocking along the north along the road. The heavy attacks of the devils and puppet troops will consume his morale, food, grass and ammunition , to lengthen the supply lines of its army."

Luo Youdu smiled and said, "Tuan Zuo, or is it a way to lure the enemy deep?".

"of course."

Xu Rui nodded, then waved someone to bring a military map, unfolded it, pointed to the map, and said to Chief of Staff Luo Youdu: "Even if we add the new regiment and other troops, within two months, Forces that can be assembled."

"I roughly calculated it, about [-] to [-], and the calculation was based on the fact that we and the Xinyi Regiment and other departments have expanded their troops during the two-month preparation time."

After a pause, Xu Rui continued, "When the time comes to compare the strength of the enemy and ourselves, we will still be at a disadvantage."

"Tuan Zuo, I think it's about the same."

Luo Youdu nodded, and immediately said: "So, we can only follow the previous strategy to lure the enemy deep, gradually consume the enemy's morale, and lengthen their supply lines.".

"Then, use our cavalry battalion and air assault battalion to detour behind the enemy, airborne, and cut off the enemy's supply line."

But then Luo Youdu thought about it, and said in a concentrated voice: "It's just that Shinozuka Yoshinan should also be aware of the importance of the rear supply line in the previous two large-scale battles to wipe out the enemy."

"When the time comes, the old devil asked the devil commander who will command the next devil army to counterattack slowly to launch a counterattack, lay down a ground, and consolidate a ground. I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to fight."

Xu Rui nodded and said, "You are right, Chief of Staff."

"After all, that old devil Shinozuka Yoshinan is not a fool. After two stumbles, he will definitely be cautious the third time. But for us, we have the advantage of airborne assault with rotorcraft, and this devil The existence of this unit is still unknown. Xu Dahu's air assault battalion is still a secret killer unit."

Luo Youdu thought about it, but it was true.

"Right."

Luo Youdu nodded, and then said: "Since Shinoka Yoshinan is very likely to mobilize more than two divisions to strangle us."

"Regiment, in addition to the newly formed 12th Rocket Artillery Battalion, should we also recruit and expand again?"

Xu Rui laughed and said, "Chief of Staff, you mean to expand the infantry?".

"right!!"

Luo Youdu nodded, and said: "We only have six infantry battalions now, and the most elite infantry battalions are the first, second, and third battalions. The combat effectiveness of the last three infantry battalions is not comparable to that of the main battalion."

"In the future, we will only rely on six infantry battalions to deal with the devil's counterattack of more than two divisions. I am afraid that we will be stretched. Why not expand the number of infantry battalions while the devil is mobilizing heavy troops? I think that when the time comes The Fifth Battalion and Sixth Battalion can be transferred from the stationed Heyuan County, Jinghai County and other places to the south."

When Xu Rui heard this, he began to think about it.

Recruitment and expansion can of course greatly strengthen the infantry strength of the 303 regiment.

However, after the recruitment and expansion, the combat effectiveness of the troops will definitely be more hopeful.

After all, it is impossible for the expanded infantry battalions to allow recruits to train and garrison the northern sites such as Jinghai County. Some veterans must be transferred from the first battalion and other departments to train recruits and garrison the northern sites. (end of this chapter)
