Bright Sword: Stop pretending, I am the most powerful warlord

"How many troops has the devil mobilized? How much information do we currently have?"

The brigade commander frowned and asked the soldiers.

He had already received the news from Taicheng a few days ago, and he knew clearly that the devils were about to take large-scale actions.

But what he didn't expect was that the devil came so fast.

The soldier was silent for a moment and then said: "According to the information we have so far, devils have been dispatched from Xiji stronghold, Qingyuan, Heyuan, and Ping'an."

The brigade commander was startled, his eyes filled with worry.

"These are devil strongholds near Feihu Ridge and Heiyun Mountain!"

"Then the devil's purpose is self-evident. It is obvious that he is here for Wu Qianli."

"Without further delay, I will contact the deputy commander-in-chief now and prepare for a fierce battle!"

With that said, the Brigadier turned around and was about to leave.

At this moment, the chief of staff of the brigade hurried in
"Brigade Commander!" Wu Qianli stopped him in a deep voice and said, "Brigade Commander, you already know everything, I think this matter is strange!"

"Strange?" The brigade commander frowned, turned to look at the chief of staff: "What? What's wrong?"

The chief of staff nodded: "It is true that the devils rushed five thousand miles, but this time they mobilized troops from Northwest Shanxi."

"I suspect that they want to use the name of attacking five thousand miles to attract our large army together."

"Once our large forces move closer to Feihu Ridge, the devils from Taicheng, Quyang, Yuanping, and Shanyin will take advantage of the trend and form a huge encirclement net."

The chief of staff didn't finish his sentence, but the brigade commander's expression changed.

The location of Feihu Ridge is rather embarrassing. It is close to Luliang to the south and Bajiao to the north.

If the devils in Taicheng and Quyang want to participate in this war, Luliang and Jingle are the only way they must go, but these two places are guarded by the Jinsui Army.

According to Fatty Yan's character, he would shrink his troops back to Luliang in all likelihood, deploy defenses along the Fen River and Dongxian area, and make way for the Jingle area.

If the devils from Shanyin go south at this time, launch an attack via Shuo County, and cooperate with the Yuanping devils who arrived in Ningwu to press in.

At that time, the entire Eighth Route Army will be surrounded by the devils, and they will either choose to defend to the death or be forced to evacuate eastward.

But in this way, the lost land that has been regained after so many years will be occupied by devils, and the scope of activities of the Eighth Route Army will also be compressed to the size of a palm.

"Then what do you say now?" The brigade commander frowned and looked at the chief of staff: "At present, the situation is very unfavorable to us."

"Xiji stronghold, Qingyuan, Heyuan, Ping'an, all the devils in the four directions are dispatched. I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to completely stop them with your troops."

"The deputy commander-in-chief already knows about Wu Qianli's situation. Whether it's minerals or reclaimed land, these must not fall into the hands of the devils!"

The chief of staff smiled lightly: "Although the devils are coming aggressively this time, the devil team headed by the Xiji stronghold is only a forward force after all, and I don't think there will be too many people."

"If Wu Qianli can repel the devil's forward troops, and the large army can defend the east and north directions, the devils in Taicheng and Quyang will not dare to act rashly."

"Besides, the devils are making a big move this time, and the battle line is so long. It is impossible for Chang Kaishen's troops to take no action at all. Even if it is just harassment, the devils will not be able to bear it."

"Within a week, the devils will definitely withdraw their troops!"

The brigade commander nodded after a moment of silence: "Your analysis is very reasonable. The key to this battle is to prevent the army of devils from converging. At the same time, Wu Qianli must defend Feihu Ridge and Heiyun Mountain."

"But the question is, the devils in the four places are dispatched at the same time, can Wu Qianli hold it?"

"It should be possible. I'll go to Feihu Ridge later and tell him the situation!"

"If Wu Qianli relies on the advantage of the Feihu Ridge's terrain, make corresponding countermeasures!"

"Even if the devils have thousands of troops, I have the confidence to keep them out of the mountain gate."

The brigade commander frowned, still a little worried in his heart, but there seemed to be no other way right now.

Patting the chief of staff on the shoulder, the brigade commander turned around and prepared to leave.

Before leaving, he said again affirmatively: "You and I will act separately, and I will report the situation to the deputy commander-in-chief to see if I can allocate some troops to assist the debt-free!"

After speaking, the brigadier strode down the mountain.

"..."

Soon after, the chief of staff came to Feihu Ridge and told Wu Qianli about the situation.

After learning about the situation, everyone's hearts skipped a beat, and Wu Qianli frowned involuntarily.

"Battalion Commander." Chen Kuan opened his mouth to say something.

In fact, not only him, but Long Wenwen and the others were also very worried.

After all, there are four groups of enemy troops, even if each route only sends a brigade of troops, it will add up to almost a regiment of troops.

There are such a large number of enemies, but they only have more than 2000 recruits including the recruits who are still training.

The disparity in military strength is indeed too great!

Wu Qianli turned around: "Wars have never been a matter for an army."

"Compared to the enemies that the large forces have to face, we have faced very few!"

"Pass my order, all those who have duties go to the headquarters immediately to discuss the strategy of retreating the enemy!"

"Yes!"

"."

Inside the Eighth Route Army Headquarters!
The deputy commander threw away the pencil in his hand, his eyes were determined and filled with incomparable anger.

"Damn it, Yoshio Shinozuka, that bastard, is so wicked!"

"Okay, don't you want to fight? Then fight with him to the end!"

"I don't believe it anymore. With so many devils in his hands, I can kill my Huaxia?"

The chief of staff nodded: "This battle is definitely unavoidable. Fighting is inevitable. The problem is that we can't do it recklessly. We need to discuss a perfect strategy to defeat the enemy."

The deputy commander nodded, then looked at the brigade commander beside him.

"This time the devil is mainly here for Wu Qianli, you have to send at least one regiment of troops to his side to ensure the safety of Feihu Ridge!"

The brigade commander shook his head: "My chief of staff has already gone to Feihuling, Wu Qianli already knows the situation."

"He made an analysis. The devil probably wants to use the attack on Feihu Ridge as a bait to attract the support of our army, so as to form a siege!"

"And he believes that there is no need to mobilize large troops, just continue to do a good job of defense. He faces the devil troops headed by the Xiji stronghold alone."

"If we can directly kill the devil's vanguard without our support, then Yoshio Shinozuka's plan will be destroyed fundamentally."

The chief of staff nodded in agreement: "From a formal point of view, his analysis makes sense."

"Same as before, Yoshio Shinozuka still wants to fish, but the difference is that this time the bait is Feihuling."

"As long as Feihu Ridge is fine, Yoshio Shinozuka will not be able to finish his shot, and his first step plan will not be able to be carried out."

"Their front line is stretched and the rear is empty. The large troops must not dare to confront us too much."

"He definitely wouldn't dare!" The deputy commander snorted coldly: "Fatty Yan may not make too many moves, but Chang Kaishen is not a vegetarian."

"After a long time, Chang Kaishen might just steal Shinozuka Yoshio's hometown."

"He is an experienced devil, so he won't fail to understand this."

"However, Wu Qianli is still a little worried about facing the enemy's four-way vanguard alone."

"Old Chen, this time the main attack task is assigned to the 385th Brigade. Your 386th Brigade is responsible for leak prevention and filling in various places. At the same time, if necessary, you can provide appropriate assistance to Wu Qianli's side!"
