Chapter 700
May 8, 1939, at 8 pm.
The county town of Shexian County, Handan.
512 Brigade Brigade Operation Room.
The excited Ouyang drank three big bowls of water in a row, but still felt dry mouth.
You should know that since the evening, Ouyang had just entered the defense zone of the 512th Brigade in Shexian County and was welcomed by all the officers and soldiers of the 512th Brigade.
Along the way, the soldiers were in full bloom!
Ouyang himself was also infected by this emotion, but he said a lot of words to encourage the soldiers.
Just because for hours of shouting, my throat was completely reimbursed and my physical strength was reduced by half.
But even so, Ouyang still enjoys it.
I'm going back to my parents' home!
Liu Tongluo, Zhao Gang and Wang Yaqiao were laughing from ear to ear when they saw Ouyang's condition at this moment.
Liu Tongluo: "Old man, I want me to say that you are more face-saving. When you come, everyone will be so happy!"
Zhao Gang: "That's right, when a big guy from the 512th Brigade sees me on weekdays, he always hides from me like a mouse and a cat. It's not like you, but his popularity is much higher than that of Mr. Zhu and Mr. Peng."
Hearing Zhao Gang's words, Ouyang immediately pointed at him and said with a smile: "Old Zhao, if you criticize them less on weekdays, how could they avoid you?"
Zhao Gang is the political commissar, and the work of the political commissar is not just a work of team building, but more ideological work of soldiers and maintenance of team discipline.
The 512th Brigade was formed by Ouyang, and it was more or less affected by Ouyang's slutiness, such as smoking, drinking, swearing, etc.
Zhao Gang has often caught a few negative examples for team building.
Not to mention ordinary soldiers, even when Ouyang was still in the team, facing Zhao Gang, he was also giving in.
After some casual conversation, the reminiscence words were put aside.
After all, it is during the war, and everyone can clearly distinguish this.
Ouyang said in a deep voice: "What is the current situation of the battle?"
Although Ouyang also learned about the battle situation of the 512th Brigade and the 11th Division of the Japanese Army, it was definitely not so detailed.
“Oh~~~~!”
Liu Tongluo sighed: "We have some underestimated the Japanese 11th Division."
Wang Yaqiao and Zhao Gang also nodded with a serious expression.
"Uh, let's talk about it in detail!" Ouyang asked.
In fact, at this moment, Ouyang's heart was really full of doubts.
The 512th Brigade almost assembled all its troops. The regular army, guerrillas and militias, had a total force of more than 15,000 people. With such a strong combat power, it actually confronted the 11th Division of the Japanese Army for more than ten days.
In Ouyang's opinion, this was simply an incredible thing.
Ouyang Ke has fought with them a lot in the Japanese 11th Division, and he knows the level of combat effectiveness very well.
It is a special division of the Japanese army, and its combat effectiveness is far inferior to the 1st Division and the 32nd Division of the Japanese Army that had just fought with Ouyang not long ago.
Not on the same level at all.
The division's weapons, equipment and personnel qualities are much worse than the powerful 512 Brigade.
It is no exaggeration to say that the 512th Brigade completely crushed the 11th Division of the Japanese army, but it definitely had the upper hand!
"I originally thought that with your strength, not to mention completely defeating the Japanese 11o division, it should not be a problem to take down Wu'an County in these ten days, but why is this happening now?"
Ouyang asked with a serious expression.
Ouyang really couldn't figure it out!
After the words came, Liu Tongluo, Zhao Gang and Wang Yaqiao looked at each other with a wry smile.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the war room became particularly solemn and depressing.
"It's up to me."
Chief of Staff Wang Yaqiao said, "In terms of the strength and combat effectiveness of both the enemy and us, our 512th Brigade does have the advantage.
Take a field battle a few days ago for example. My 512th Brigade dispatched two regiments of troops and launched a fierce attack on a Japanese gang that was in deep into the army and achieved a complete victory.
It hurt them hard.
It can be said that in the case of field combat, our 512th Brigade, whether it is single-soldier combat or multiple-soldier cooperative combat, is completely better than the 11th Division of the Japanese Army!”
"Um!"
Ouyang nodded and said in a deep voice: "Why is it still like this now? A mere Wu'an County has not been captured?"
It took more than ten days in a row, but it was unable to break through Wu'an County.
Ouyang really couldn't understand this.
After all, Ouyang knows very little about this information.
“Oh~~~!”
Wang Yaqiao sighed, got up and walked aside, and took out a map.
"Old elder, come and take a look at the latest Japanese defense map from the Wolf Warrior Squadron."
Hearing this, Ouyang immediately started to read it quickly.
At first, Ouyang didn't take it seriously, but after taking a few glances at the Japanese army's defense map, Ouyang was shocked!
The more you see, the more solemn Ouyang's expression becomes!
After seeing the complete Japanese defense map, Ouyang finally understood why the 512th Brigade was unable to break through Wu'an County for a long time!
Ouyang said with a serious expression: "I blame you wrongly. I just want to attack and add another 10,000 troops. I guess I am still in a dilemma now."
Why?
Judging from the defense map, the Japanese army built a large number of permanent fortifications in Wu'an County, Fengfeng Mining Area, Ci County and other places.
There are no less than 60 bunkers and artillery towers alone!
6o bunkers and artillery towers!
What is that concept?
It means that the Japanese army's defense is like a wall of iron!
Every time we break through a Japanese artillery tower, the casualties our army will undoubtedly be very heavy.
Especially the locations of the Japanese bunkers and artillery towers were mostly dangerous places with terrain, which were easy to defend and difficult to attack.
"Old elder, there are many capable people among the Japanese army! With such defense, my 512th Brigade's ability to field battles has been reduced by almost half. Heavy firepower such as tanks and artillery were not available!" Liu Tongluo said angrily.
Speaking of his anger, Liu Tongluo slapped the table several times to express his anger.
Faced with the Japanese army's iron walls, the existing troops of the 512th Brigade really finds it difficult to exert its responsive combat power.
The 512 Brigade is different from other units of the Eighth Route Army. It is a brigade-level combat unit with excellent equipment and high individual quality. It is better at field and frontal combat.
But now I encountered the 11o Division, a hard bone that shrank and defended, but I was helpless!
In fact, the best solution to the Japanese army's bunkers and artillery towers is to use airdrop bombs.
“Oh~~~!”
Zhao Gang said in a deep voice: "We have tried to use airdrops of planes to blow up the bunkers, but we have planes, so why don't the Japanese?
And their number of planes is much more than ours.
After several confrontations, Gao Zhihang's flight brigade did not gain any advantage, but instead lost several aircraft and several excellent pilots."
"So that?" Ouyang fell into deep thought.
Liu Tongluo gritted his teeth and said, "As long as he can get rid of the Japanese's iron wall, my 512th Brigade will definitely be able to defeat the Japanese!"
Having said that, it is obviously extremely difficult to solve the Japanese bunkers and artillery towers built on dangerous terrain.
The task undertaken by the 512th Brigade this time is to defeat the 11th Division of the Japanese Army, in order to shock the entire Japanese army in North China and thus disintegrate the morale of the enemy.
Further and thoroughly crush the Japanese army's major raid in Hebei.
If the 512th Brigade and the 110th Division of the Japanese Army were fighting with their arms and true swords and guns, the 512th Brigade would not be afraid at all.
And you will definitely win!
But now, the Japanese’s 11o division is actually scared!
That's right, a bunch of people have become slutty calfs and cannot hide!
This is completely different from the rampant Japanese devils in the past.
"The main reason is that the 512th Brigade is too famous. There are even more famous Japanese generals who fall under the blade of the 512th Brigade. The Japanese are really afraid." Ouyang shook his head with a wry smile.
Although the Japanese army could not hide, it was indeed very effective!
Chapter completed!
