Chapter 128
Wu'an is affiliated to Handan, North China, and is located in the southern part of the Hebei-North Province, the eastern foot of the Taihang Mountains, and the junction of the two provinces of Shanxi and Hebei.
Wu'an in history is also a good place with outstanding people and beautiful places. Li Mu, Bai Qi and Su Qin in the Warring States Period were successively named Wu'an Jun;
Later, during the rebellion against the tyrannical Qin Dynasty, Liu Bang was also named Wu'an Hou by King Huai of Chu. During the Western Han Dynasty, Emperor Wu of Han's uncle Tian Fu was also named Wu'an Hou.
At the same time, Ouyang also knew that in the 21st century, Wu'an has become an emerging city dominated by industry, with mineral resources mainly iron and coal mines. It is one of the 58 key coal-producing counties (cities) in the country and one of the four major iron-rich bases in the country.
Of course, Wu'an at this moment was also an occupied area occupied by the Japanese army during the War of Resistance of the Republic of China.
The first battalion of Zhou Weiguo, the second battalion of Jiang Daya, and the third battalion of Li Yunlong were all ordered to return to Wu'an.
In the combat conference room.
Ouyang Dangxian said: "I believe some of you have guessed the reason for summoning everyone this time. That's right, that's to cover the safe transfer of the people."
"At this moment, the 15th Infantry Regiment of the 28th Brigade of the 14th Division of the Japanese Army was in Handan 120 miles east of us, and there was a situation of sweeping Wu'an at any time. Wu'an and the people of several surrounding towns had not yet had time to transfer. Our mission was to constantly harass the enemy and provide sufficient time for the transfer of the people!"
After the words fell, everyone was a little silent for a moment.
Because everyone knows the difficulties of this battle, the 14th Division is one of the permanent divisions of the Japanese army. Its combat effectiveness is far from the troops of his former old rival Kenji Ishihara.
The dog-headed old man said, "This 15th Regiment cannot be underestimated. In the battle of Zhenjun Temple a few days ago, in order to rescue General Zheng Yu of the 6th Independent Brigade of the Shanxi Sui Army, the number of casualties of our soldiers is not small!"
The 15th Infantry Regiment of the 28th Brigade of the 14th Division of the Japanese Army, the commander of the corps of Fan Zheng Morita. Therefore, this unit, also known as the Morita United, has strong combat strength and is the best of the 14th Division.
At the same time, it is also a full-group gang with two infantry brigades and one cavalry brigade of more than 5 people. The number of front-line combatants exceeds more than 32 people. If various types of troops and logistics personnel are added, the number of more than 5 people will be increased;
It has mountain cannons, mortars, anti-tank cannons, firing cannons, and infantry cannons of various calibers, with the number exceeding 20;
Nearly a hundred grenade launchers;
The addition of light and heavy machine guns is no less than 80;
More than 8 cars and more than 2 carriages.
"hiss!"
When everyone heard about the firepower configuration of Morita United, they couldn't help but take a breath.
Jiang Daya sighed directly: "Compared with the Morita United, the Yamaguchi United we annihilated before, is completely in the sky and the other in the ground!"
"There is no comparison at all!"
Zhou Weiguo also said his thoughts, "All the light and heavy firepower of our White Tiger Guerrillas is probably less than a quarter of his!"
"Ahem!!"
At that moment, Ouyang coughed a few times and said, "What? I don't have confidence!"
In an instant, everyone in the conference room laughed loudly, and Ouyang also laughed together.
Because everyone knows that this time it was not a head-on battle with the Japanese army, but a harassment war and guerrilla warfare, which are everyone's strengths.
Li Yunlong immediately stood up and walked to the hanging map position, pointing out: "I suggest that this time we should break the whole into pieces and attack more points. In the future, the enemy will be cut into several segments, hit him during the day and at night, and keep fighting, making him tired and hurt, and he will be defeated without fighting!"
Suddenly, everyone's ideas were opened, and Zhou Weiguo, Jiang Daya and Long Dagu also made many additions.
Ouyang also nodded repeatedly, agreeing with their suggestions.
The meeting lasted for two hours, and everyone worked together to develop an effective set of tactics.
Finally, Ouyang issued a combat order:
Zhou Weiguo's first battalion was responsible for ambushing the only way to Wu'an, and the area around Dongdong Village. At the same time, Cheng Mo was transferred to serve as the instructor of the battalion;
Jiang Daya's second battalion was responsible for feinting attack on Handan City, slowing down the Japanese army's marching, and dispersing the enemy's forces. At the same time, Deputy Political Commissar Zhang Pujing also served as the instructor of the second battalion;
Li Yunlong's third battalion, as a mobile force, searched for fighter jets on his own and supported the battle between the first and second battalions;
The new battalion of Longdagu is responsible for the Longquan Village area as the last barrier to delay the Japanese army's attack on the Taihang Mountains;
Gao Dazhuang, He Chenguang and Xiaozhuang led the Langya Special Operations Team, went deep behind enemy lines, launched sabotage operations against the Japanese army, and strived to kill the Japanese commanders.

At the same time, Handan, the command center of the Japanese Morita United.
Corps of the corps leader Morita Fan Zheng said in a deep voice: "According to our aircraft reconnaissance, our main opponent this time is the White Tiger Guerrillas of the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army. A unit with a force of more than 2ooo people and a large number of light and heavy machine guns. It can be said that the combat power is also a good existence in the Chinese army."
Immediately, the staff officer added: "According to the news from the brigade commander General Sakai, this Eighth Route Army unit also has a very strange new weapon, a single weapon similar to a gun barrel, which can produce artillery fire attacks with a radius of nearly 25m, and is also extremely combustible."
As soon as the words came, the Japanese officers looked at each other!
Some people have heard of this weapon. Although the specific situation is not very clear, their rich combat experience tells them that this battle is definitely not as simple as they imagined.
The Japanese officers analyzed the combat plan again.
In a word, defeat the enemy head-on and attack with destruction!
Use continuous attacks to create victory after victory!
"Your Excellency Colonel, please wait a moment!"
Suddenly, the Grand Secretary Toyota Hiromoto raised objections to the action plan again, pointing to the map and said, "Grandmaster, take a look at Dongdong Village again. This is our only way to Wu'an. At the same time, the terrain is complex and mostly narrow valleys. If the enemy sets an ambush here, our army's military strength advantage cannot be expanded, and we will suffer heavy losses."
"I suggest that only one squadron of troops be sent to Dongdong Village to test and confuse the enemy!"
"Most of the remaining troops will detour through Nandong Village and spend another half a day crossing the Black Tiger Cliff and heading straight to Longquan Village behind Wu'an."
"In this way, no matter how dispersed the Eighth Route Army's troops are, we can complete the sweeping mission to the greatest extent."
Upon hearing this, several officers immediately nodded repeatedly, agreeing with Hiromoto Toyota's suggestion.
If Ouyang and others were here, they would probably be shocked, because their action route and plan were actually guessed by this person.
This battle is in danger!
"Baga!"
The captain of the regiment Colonel Morita suddenly hit the table, and a huge sound broke out.
He said furiously, saying, "Did you scare you by a defeat at Zhenjun Temple? Who are we?"
"We are the best warriors in the Great Japanese Empire, and what we want is not to sneak attack the enemy in a sneaky way, but to defeat them head-on!"
"Annihilation of them all!"
"This is how we wash away our shame and defend the glory of our Morita United!"
Suddenly, the Japanese officers in the conference room shouted in unison: "Hi!"
Only Major Hiromoto Toyota cursed in his heart: "This group of old bureaucrats will sooner or later be defeated."
After the meeting, the troops took action quickly. After some struggle, Major Hiromoto finally received the appointment of Colonel Morita.
"I ordered you to lead a strengthened squadron to detour Nandong Village and go straight to the rear of Wu'an!"
Chapter completed!
