Chapter 302 The old state
"If you observe carefully the disguises of these advancing teams, there are still many flaws. From their military uniforms to their weapons, if you are more careful, you can tell."
"And if they face our main force, as long as we concentrate our troops and firepower, they will not be opponents. Of course, the real role of these Japanese advancing teams is not to fight with our troops."
"Take the Japanese advance team this time. They actually have no intention of fighting us, but we took the initiative to entangle them. Their main role is to use their camouflage to conduct reconnaissance in our hinterland to find our important military targets.
, and provide accurate intelligence for the rapid encirclement of the Japanese army."
"Furthermore, these advancing teams also have an important task, which is to conduct a sneak attack on our senior commanders and take advantage of the chaos to assassinate our senior commanders."
The Japanese advance team is responsible for special operations, and beheading operations are also one of their important tasks.
Although the Eighth Route Army has become accustomed to moving around, its important organs are not front-line troops. There are many non-combatants and their movements are slow. They can easily be tracked by the enemy's advancing team.
The most important role of special reconnaissance operations is to provide precise tactical guidance for large force combat operations and to disrupt and destroy the opponent's command system.
Zhang Yunfei simply introduced the fighting methods of the Japanese advance team to his regiment leader and political commissar.
Although they have not been exposed to special operations, as commanders who have experienced hundreds of battles, it is impossible for them not to be able to summarize the enemy's fighting methods.
But they have no idea. Their previous job was to fight guerrilla warfare, find the enemy's loopholes, and then give the enemy a hard blow.
Now that I was suddenly arrested and assigned to a security role, I was a bit at a loss. It would have been easier to defend against the ordinary Japanese and puppet offensive troops.
When the enemy attacks, they can block it and buy time for the division headquarters to move. This is quite simple.
However, it is a bit difficult to deal with infiltration operations like the Japanese advance team. We are not afraid of those who use open swords and guns, but we are afraid of sneaky ones like the Japanese.
Their new regiment is not a professional security force. It's not that they underestimate themselves. It's enough to let them stand guard and serve as sentries. They don't have much confidence in preventing infiltration operations by professional agents like the Japanese.
Now that the defense force of the divisional headquarters is weak, they have a heavy responsibility. If the Japanese are mixed up and assassinated or something, then they will really be blamed. How can they not be anxious?
The theory of special operations is not uncommon in this era, but in the Eastern battlefield, especially for the Eighth Route Army, this method of warfare is really a bit fatal.
The system of the Eighth Route Army consists of the main force, divisional troops, local guerrillas, militia, and the general public, which are closely united, trusting and assisting each other.
However, this system is too complex, and there are too many loopholes that can be exploited, not to mention the devil's deliberate efforts.
In fact, as long as the Japanese can speak fluent Chinese and change into civilian clothes, they can deceive most of the people and local armed forces and easily enter the core area of the base area.
The poor flow of information among various units and regions has brought great difficulties to their anti-Japanese infiltration work. Of course, their lack of information also has an advantage. The Japanese want to obtain important information by grabbing tongues.
Unless some important cadre leaders are captured, other ordinary cadres have no idea where the higher-level agencies are located.
Just like Zhang Yunfei himself, he is already a battalion commander. Apart from knowing the location of the regiment headquarters, he knows nothing about the locations of other brigade headquarters, division headquarters, headquarters and other units.
They all fight independently, and this information will not be communicated to them unless necessary.
Generally speaking, the lag in intelligence circulation is the most fatal. They can only guard against the invasion of the Japanese army. There is really not much that can be done about such a small-scale infiltration.
This is also the reason why the regiment leader and the political commissar asked them. They clearly knew the behavior of the Japanese advance team, but there were not many effective ways to prevent it. This was a headache.
"Commander, political commissar, you don't need to worry too much. Although the Japanese's special agents are not here to attack our senior command, of course, they only have more than a hundred people, so they cannot really boldly sneak into us.
In the well-defended division headquarters, they will only lead the Japanese troops to encircle our command organization."
"The Japs have a high level of military literacy. Those veterans of the Japs can basically reach the level of the advance team after receiving targeted training. However, it is not easy for the Japs to form such a special force."
"For the Japanese, the difficulty in military quality is the smallest. There are too many things to overcome in other aspects, which are far greater than the military difficulties."
"If nothing else, just a language barrier cannot be learned in a short time. Even if the cultural quality of these Japanese is too high, it is not easy to learn the local dialect." Learning a foreign language is really not easy.
It's an easy thing. Thinking about how he had struggled with English for so many years, it took a long time to pass the CET-4 exam.
"Judging from the level of vigilance in our base area, if half of their people don't know Chinese, their entire combat plan may be easily exposed."
The Eighth Route Army interacts very frequently with ordinary people. It's not a problem if you don't know how to speak. You can't kill all the people you see. If you try to infiltrate, it will directly become a sweep.
"Furthermore, China has a vast territory and rich resources, and the customs and language habits of different places are quite different. The pronunciation is different even if the pronunciation is different, and the customs are different even if they are from the northeast. But when they come to us, they will be exposed by opening their mouths, so the devils
Even if we form such an advance team, it won’t be too many.”
The Japanese troops have serious characteristics, and in fact the Eighth Route Army also has serious characteristics. Like their new regiment, most of the soldiers come from several counties around Xincheng, so it is not that easy to impersonate them.
"The Japanese have put so much effort into establishing this kind of thing, which is so harmful to our base area. When we met him at that time, I had only one thought, no matter how much effort I had to make, we had to keep them, and only Qianri would be a thief.
, There is no principle of guarding against thieves for a thousand days, and we must not leave such a big hidden danger to our agencies at all levels."
The Eighth Route Army is good at guerrilla warfare, but they also have no effective way to deal with the advancing Japanese troops who are fighting guerrilla warfare.
Qi Dajiu, who stood aside blankly as Zhang Yunfei spoke, rolled his eyes. He was not good at making such concluding report speeches, so he could only stand aside and just listen.
However, he was very disdainful of Zhang Ergou's behavior of bringing in privateers to show off his merits, but he didn't say anything. After all, the battle was fought by his second battalion, and the credit naturally belongs to their second battalion.
"This group of Japanese soldiers has undergone special training, and its elite presence is much higher than that of the previous Japanese advancing group. As soon as I fought against this Japanese advancing group, I felt something was wrong."
"The actual combat capabilities are far beyond the comparison between ordinary Japanese soldiers and the other advance team. Once the Japanese soldiers use them to deal with our headquarters, it will bring great danger to our headquarters. Therefore, I made up my mind at that time, even if we
Even if all the troops are exhausted, the Japanese advance team must be left behind, and even if the enemy cannot be completely annihilated, they must be crippled so that they cannot continue to carry out their mission."
In fact, Zhang Yunfei was somewhat familiar with the Japanese advance team that they fought against in the end. These specially trained Japanese soldiers were beyond the standards of ordinary soldiers.
Qi Dajiu on the side began to grin. It was his second battalion that he wanted to sacrifice people's lives to kill the Japanese. Although he knew that Zhang Ergou was exaggerating, but when Zhang Ergou said these words, he became angry.
Climb upward.
The Second Battalion suffered so many casualties and it took so long, but the Second Battalion suffered such huge casualties. He was holding back his anger and had nowhere to vent his anger. He would still be polite when Zhang Ergou bumped into him.
Fortunately, he knew that this was the regiment headquarters and the leaders were all here. If he dared to make a mistake, he would be the unlucky one in the end.
Commander Yuan was still satisfied with Zhang Yunfei's analysis and nodded: "Your opinion is basically consistent with the division's judgment. This time the Japs' raid did not achieve the desired goal, especially the Japs' infiltration plan.
, Speaking of which, you played an indispensable role in it, and two of the Japanese advance teams fell into your hands."
"However, the team has learned a profound lesson from this Japanese raid. The division must make up its mind to carry out certain rectifications. Especially the establishment of the division and headquarters, especially the non-combatants, must be streamlined and compressed."
As the Eighth Route Army's main tactic is guerrilla warfare, it is a shame in itself for its whereabouts to be caught by the enemy.
"Actually, our local armed forces have discovered the whereabouts of this Japanese advancing team. Unfortunately, our communication methods are too backward. The people sent by the local armed forces to report have not been able to find our division headquarters. Instead, you have encountered them.
Already."
"However, it is really not easy for you to break such a hard nut. We have poor equipment, lack of ammunition, no fire support, and the combat effectiveness of the Japanese. Even if there are only more than a hundred people, we can rely on favorable terrain to resist a complete organization.
Camp is not difficult."
"I didn't expect that such a well-trained, well-equipped Japanese army, supported by relatively favorable terrain, would be defeated by you. Although the whole battle was a bit passive and the cost was high, you were still able to capture it."
"If our Second Battalion wants to gnaw on it, let's gnaw on this hard nut." Qi Dajiu, who was observing the whole process, quickly expressed his position. If he didn't say anything, he would become a little transparent. The main reason for the battle was that he was fought by the Second Battalion, and he couldn't win in the end.
Ergou, thank you very much.
Qi Dajiu suddenly spoke in a loud voice, startling everyone.
The regimental commander and political commissar smiled at this, and regimental commander Yuan encouraged: "Yes, your second battalion fought very well this time."
"This time I'm looking for you, mainly about the defense work of the division headquarters. This time the Japanese raids, the division headquarters' security force also suffered huge losses. Our regiment will have to share the responsibility of the division headquarters with the 34th Regiment for a long time.
Defense and alert mission.”
"As for the shortage of personnel in your two battalions, the political commissar and I have reported it to the division headquarters, and the division headquarters promised us to try our best to find solutions. However, under the current situation, all units are seriously short of personnel, and you will not be able to get replacements in the short term."
"Just because there is a large shortage of personnel now, your work needs to be strengthened even more. You can't let the devils take advantage of it and really get in front of our eyes."
"Yes!" The two of them responded.
"Okay, you go and do your work."
What the regiment leader said means that in the next period of time, they will stay at the division headquarters and be responsible for the division's security work.
However, they were not given additional personnel, which made him quite depressed and even a little anxious.
Seeing Qi Dajiu in a good mood, Zhang Yunfei shook his head and smiled bitterly.
It's true that ignorance is bliss. With their level, it's basically impossible for locals like them to come to the Central Committee. It would be nice to come to the division headquarters for a day.
But what this guy doesn't know is that once their troops leave the division headquarters, they will inevitably go to the front line. Now they are not only the division headquarters' guard troops, but also the reserve troops.
They are not being replenished with personnel now, but are being replenished with a group of insufficiently trained recruits and thrown directly into the war. Their combat effectiveness has dropped to second-best, but the casualty rate of the insufficiently trained recruits is too high.
Zhang Yunfei, who left the regiment headquarters, was so depressed that he didn't want to say a word. The war was about to break out. It was almost June. The war was about to break out. He didn't have much time left.
According to the current situation, their independent brigade was probably not included in the order of participating troops in the invasion battle, but in the end the scale of the battle turned out to be larger than initially expected.
It is inevitable that they will join the war in the end. Even if they are not the first batch of troops to go into battle, if the time left for them to train is slightly more, it will not exceed three months.
It is not easy to form an army in three months, but the key is that he does not know where his soldiers are now, and it is unknown when they will be replenished. It is very likely that he will go to the battlefield with the new battalion.
.
"Hey, are you going to be a cadre?" Zhang Yunfei was thinking about it when he was suddenly stopped by Qi Dajiu, "Are you going the wrong way?"
"No!" Zhang Yunfei raised his head and looked at him in confusion and said, "I'm going to the division hospital, why are you coming with me?"
Qi Dajiu: "..."
"Are you going to see Dr. Zhao?" Qi Dajiu felt that he had been hit hard. It was not good to talk to someone who had a lover. He would be fed a mouthful of dog food all of a sudden.
"What the hell, I'm going to see Lao Yang."
"You came to see him specifically? Not just by the way?"
Zhang Yunfei: "..."
Looking at this guy's face, Zhang Yunfei really wanted to punch him.
Now that this guy has become a battalion commander, he naturally has to pay attention to some self-discipline and not get into trouble with him at every turn. On the surface, it seems that the relationship between them has been somewhat eased.
Of course, it is also possible that they have the same status now. The anger in this guy's stomach has been released, his mind has calmed down, and he has relapsed a bit. Zhang Yunfei almost forgot that this guy is also a super gossip man like Tiedan.
