Rebirth of the National Marshal

Chahar Front Command.

The situation at the front developed so quickly that not only the officers on the front line did not expect it, but even the combat staff at the headquarters, including Mao Yuanshan and Mr. Jiang Baili, did not expect it. Mao Yuanshan had already estimated the combat power of the armored regiment, but it was obvious that he still underestimated them.

Judging from the current situation, the armored regiment is far more capable than the original setting. During the Second World War, Germany's armored regiment could sweep across Western Europe, and now its own armored regiment can sweep across the entire Northeast.

Mao Yuanshan overlooked one thing, that is, the defense of countries like France was much stronger than that of the Japanese devils. Since the German armored regiment could even sweep them, let alone his own armored regiment.

At the beginning of World War II, the tanks equipped by the Germans were like paper compared to the tanks of the armored regiments. There was no comparison at all. And the Japanese defense lines were like paper compared to the Maginot Line.

Comparing the two, it is not surprising that the armored regiment can achieve such results.

What the people in the headquarters have to consider now is not how to break through the Japanese defense line, but what to do with the large number of scattered Japanese soldiers in the occupied area?

These guys have fled into the deep mountains and forests one by one. If they are not eliminated, the surrounding people will suffer in the future. In the past two days, we have received many reports about these guys running out to harm the people.

There was no way around it. The surrounding area was too large, and the security regiment that followed behind had not yet made a good handover with the armored regiment. The armored regiment was too fast, and the security regiment had already developed its speed to the limit. Their speed was still far behind that of the armored regiment, so these stragglers actually delayed the security regiment's attack.

"We can't be like a bear trying to break sticks, breaking them and dropping them one by one. Although the offensive on the front line is going well, the situation in the rear is also here. We can't continue the offensive. We should stop the armored regiment's offensive and clear the rear." After receiving several complaints from the people in the rear, General Zhang Zizhong felt that he should first clear out these lagging Japanese devils and then continue the offensive.

If the attack continues, the number will continue to increase, and a few Japanese devils may destroy an entire village.

"The armored regiment's attack cannot be stopped. You know, its function is to keep attacking. Order them to conduct a highly comprehensive penetration. Now there is some chaos on our side, but the Japanese devils are even more chaotic. If we stop this attack, we don't know when we will have such a good thing next time. So we must continue to attack. We have occupied more than a dozen counties. It only took one day to defeat 4 Japanese devils. If we want to continue to have such results in the future, we don't know when it will be. We must take advantage of their chaos to kill them."

Mao Yuanshan did not order to stop the attack. In his view, these problems in the rear could be overcome. If the armored regiment stopped the attack, it would be difficult to find such an opportunity again in the future. Although the Japanese army lacked anti-tank equipment, they certainly had this awareness.

The next time they attack, they will have some protective equipment, such as digging a large trench directly on the ground to prevent the tanks from passing through.

"What the commander said is very right. Now the Japanese devils not only lack anti-tank weapons, but they don't even have any anti-tank experts in their army. Now the soldiers are frightened and panic when they encounter tanks. We should continue to expand the results of the battle. Although there are more stragglers in the jurisdiction, which will endanger the lives of ordinary people, we can only order the First and Second Security Regiments to clear them out quickly, equip them with a large number of jeeps, and let them connect with the Armored Regiment." At present, only jeeps can keep up with the attack speed of the Armored Regiment. Even the trucks can't keep up.

Wang Bing's suggestion was agreed by others. It would be great if there were armored vehicles in this era. They could follow these tanks and continue the attack. Unfortunately, Mao Yuanshan has not unlocked this thing yet, so he can only use a jeep instead.

Now the jeep's attack power is also good. According to Mao Yuanshan's original arrangement, the jeep carries a large-caliber heavy machine gun and a submachine gun on the front passenger seat. The firepower can definitely be said to be good, and there are also two grenade launchers on it.

For the Japanese soldiers, tanks were more of a pressure, and most of their deaths were caused by these jeeps.

When a shell was fired, basically no one would die in the crowd, but the machine gun fire made them very scared.

When you hear the sound of a heavy machine gun, your whole body will lie down as a conditioned reflex.

There is a reason why they say on the battlefield that veterans are afraid of machine guns and new recruits are afraid of cannons.

"The Third and Fourth Security Regiments should be sent up now instead of being used as reserves. I arranged them as reserves before mainly because I didn't expect the situation to become so good now. More than a dozen counties need us to take over. The strength of the First and Second Security Regiments is definitely insufficient, and we need to transfer two more regiments to the reserve." Mr. Jiang Baili has been humming a tune in the headquarters these days.

He had never thought that the security corps' combat effectiveness would be so strong. You have to know that this is a force composed of new recruits. Not to mention that he hadn't thought of this, even the guys in the security corps headquarters hadn't thought of it. It was really surprising.

But Mao Yuanshan knew that this was the power of accumulation. We had been training for such a long time, and the bullets used for training every day were pulled by cars. If there was still no effect, I would really cry to death.

"The chief of staff is right. Increasing the proportion of clearing out the Japanese can also put some pressure on these Japanese soldiers and prevent them from harming the Chinese people at will. I have a suggestion. Although it may push us into trouble, I think it should be useful. As long as we catch some Japanese soldiers, don't rush to pull them out. Instead, gather them together and shoot them to intimidate some Japanese soldiers around. If they don't have any lives on their hands, we can send them to prisoner-of-war camps and let those Japanese soldiers hiding in the mountains and forests know that as long as you come out and as long as you don't have any lives on your hands, we can give you a chance." Zhang Zizhong considered these ordinary people the most.
