Bright Sword: Rebirth of Kong Jie

There is a mother tongue called speechless.

Kong Jie was speechless at this moment.

They had captured such a large number of artillery pieces with great difficulty, but the brigade commander just said "Congratulations on your wealth" and took away most of them.

In addition to these artillery pieces, all other weapons, equipment and supplies of the Japanese 113th Regiment were seized, including heavy machine guns, light machine guns, grenade launchers, etc., and the brigade commander also took a lot of them.

There is nothing we can do.

The Eighth Route Army was too poor, and only Kong Jie's independent regiment was developing rapidly. The regiment had all the guns and cannons it needed.

But other main regiments, even the old main regiments like the 771st and 772nd Regiments, had only a few heavy machine guns in the entire regiment.

Many newly formed regiments did not even have a single heavy machine gun.

If the superiors don't congratulate their subordinates on their wealth and ask for some equipment and supplies, where will the supplies and equipment for distribution come from?

Further expand the army?

Kong Jie understands this very well.

In the full-scale war of resistance, the Eighth Route Army could not rely solely on the Independent Regiment, a force with limited strength and combat area, right?

So after a brief period of depression, Kong Jie, who was quite broad-minded, readily agreed to the brigade commander's request.

"What the old brigade commander said is true. I support the leadership's work. Please rest assured, I will send you all the equipment and supplies you requested later!"

The brigade commander quickly agreed and was so happy that he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "It has to be Kong Jie. He can win battles and is relatively obedient."

Unlike Li Yunlong, that troublemaker, it's not easy to get anything from him.

pat!

The brigade commander was in a good mood after hanging up the phone. He even immediately called the political commissar over and enthusiastically discussed how to use the batch of artillery sent by Kong Jie to build a brigade artillery unit directly under the 386th Brigade.

As a result, the excitement was still on his face!

Suddenly, a call came from headquarters.

The boss's voice came from the other end of the phone:

"Hello, is this Chen Shukang? Haha, congratulations on getting rich!"

"...You have to understand how difficult it is for the headquarters. If all these artillery pieces are stationed in your 386th Brigade, it will be difficult for them to fully exert their power.

In this way, I won't ask you for other artillery pieces. You just need to send all the large-caliber artillery pieces, including 105mm and 150mm howitzers, to the headquarters.

Oh, by the way, also bring half of the machine guns, grenade launchers and various supplies you requested from the independent regiment to the headquarters..."

Brigade Commander Chen: “…………”

pat!

The phone hung up again.

The boss was laughing on the other end and said, Chen Shukang, don’t be happy too soon.

You are congratulating Kong Jie and Li Yunlong on their prosperity, and I am congratulating you on your prosperity. What do you call this?

This is called one thing reducing one thing!

The excitement froze on his face. Feeling depressed, the old brigade commander suddenly felt that he had heard the words that the general had just used to convince him somewhere before.

I patted my forehead and suddenly realized.

Damn it, isn't this exactly what I used when I congratulated Kong Jie on his prosperity and asked for equipment?

The Eighth Route Army’s excellent and glorious old tradition!

Kong Jie didn't know the situation.

Although most of the equipment and supplies seized this time were taken away by the brigade commander.

But Kong Jie doesn't care about that.

With his system's golden finger and the further expansion of the independent regiment, these equipment and supplies taken away by the brigade commander will be able to be recovered sooner or later.

So, after the battle surrounding Lijiaopo and the destruction of the 113th Regiment was over.

Kong Jie immediately shifted the focus of the regiment to further strengthening the independent regiment and further enhancing the combat effectiveness of the troops.

at the same time.

With the destruction of the Yamazaki Battalion and the 113th Regiment, the war situation between the Japanese Army and the Eighth Route Army continued to evolve.

Having lost their target for reinforcement, the Japanese reinforcements, although unwilling to give in, had no choice but to retreat.

Prepare to regroup and fight again.

The Japanese army suffered a crushing defeat this time.

Inside the headquarters of the Japanese First Army in Shanxi in Taiyuan City.

The Yamazaki Battalion and the 113th Regiment were destroyed one after another, and several fighter planes of the aviation reinforcement force were also damaged.

The Japanese commander Yoshio Shinozuka was in a heavy mood and summoned officers at all levels of the First Army to rush to the headquarters for a meeting.

At the beginning of the meeting, Shinozuka Yoshio came straight to the point:

"The Eighth Route Army is growing stronger day by day, especially this damned Eighth Route Army Independent Regiment, which has almost become a major threat to our army on the Shanxi battlefield.

This time, the Yamazaki Battalion advanced alone in the deep territory, hoping to test the specific combat effectiveness of the Eighth Route Army for the Imperial Army in order to formulate a subsequent large-scale mopping-up operation plan.

As a result, in less than half a day, the Yamazaki Battalion was completely wiped out.

Even the 113th Regiment that came to reinforce the Yamazaki Battalion was wiped out in the base of the Eighth Route Army Independent Regiment.

Ladies and gentlemen, the situation of the holy war has reached its most urgent and severe moment! "

Everything was just as Kong Jie had said. Before launching a large-scale sweep, the Japanese army would conduct a preliminary test of the Eighth Route Army's strength.

Based on this, it was decided what kind of combat unit would be used as the minimum mopping-up combat unit in the subsequent large-scale mopping-up operation.

This time, the Yamazaki Battalion and the 113th Regiment were successively wiped out by the Eighth Route Army.

For a moment, the Japanese were a little confused.

Even Yoshio Shinozuka was a little unclear about how to plan further large-scale sweeps against the Eighth Route Army.

“The combat effectiveness of the Eighth Route Army has been greatly improved, and the troops have also developed rapidly, especially the large-scale raiding war that broke out not long ago, which they called the Hundred Regiments Campaign.

The Eighth Route Army mobilized more than 100 regiments, with a total force of more than 20.

The rapid development of the Eighth Route Army has far exceeded our army's expectations.

If this continues, the security and stability in the rear will collapse completely sooner or later.

In this regard, our army may have to readjust its strategic policy and gradually shift the focus of military operations from the front battlefield to the occupied areas. "

“This time, the Eighth Route Army was able to completely wipe out our Yamazaki Battalion and even destroyed the 113th Regiment in such a short period of time.

This means that in the subsequent large-scale mopping-up operations, our army must further strengthen the connection between the various mopping-up units and provide reinforcements at any time, and the smallest independent combat unit must at least meet the standards of the Yamazaki Battalion. "

That is a field army of 500 troops.

If the force is lower than this, we will probably be wiped out by the Eighth Route Army in a very short time.

The Japanese reinforcements would not even have time to rescue, and their mopping-up network would be completely broken through by the Eighth Route Army.

As for how to destroy the main force of the Eighth Route Army.

Yoshio Shinozuka sighed. Based on the strength shown by the Eighth Route Army in the Hundred Regiments Campaign, the strength of his First Army alone might not be enough to cope with it.

After thinking it over again and again, Yoshio Shinozuka, who no longer cared about his face, had no choice but to ask Tada Shun, the commander-in-chief of the Japanese North China Front Army, for reinforcements.

However, it is probably impossible to inflict heavy damage on the main force of the Eighth Route Army through a large-scale head-on confrontation in a short period of time.

Shinozuka Yoshio began to think about small-scale infiltration and decapitation, and the shadow of Yamamoto's special forces soon emerged in his mind...
