Bright Sword: Rebirth of Kong Jie

Chapter 62: Invite Colonel Yamamoto

Kill first and play later?

Kong Jie thought about it and realized that it was indeed true from a certain perspective.

However, the troops' communication means are backward and they are too far away from the brigade headquarters, so there is always a time difference in going back and forth. You can't blame me, Kong Jie, for this, right?

In fact, during this period, the Eighth Route Army's frontline combat troops faced a severe anti-Japanese war environment. The Japanese blockade led to the division of the Eighth Route Army's bases, and many command posts could not even contact the frontline troops at all.

In order to respond to emergencies and adapt to changing circumstances, it is impossible for front-line commanders to report everything to their superiors.

Fighting by reporting.

Not to mention killing the devils.

It's probably hard to protect yourself.

Therefore, the divided troops basically fought independently.

Military commanders had greater military autonomy during this period.

This is in line with the current war situation.

Moreover, the guerrilla warfare of the Eighth Route Army also gave the Army special combat capabilities: whether it was a regiment, battalion, company or platoon, even a squad, they all possessed quite good independent combat capabilities.

In this regard, the Eighth Route Army’s higher command often turned a blind eye. As long as the final result was good, why bother to make the process so clear?

This is also the fundamental reason why the brigade commander and the general tolerated Li Yunlong's some extraordinary behavior within the scope.

and……

"You don't want to keep doing this job as deputy commander, do you? I have to consider my old comrades. I can't just turn a blind eye to the injustice they've suffered.

If the battle of attacking Huangyun Town goes smoothly, you, Old Li, will still worry about not being able to gain military merit and return to being the head of the regiment?"

The heartfelt words touched Li Yunlong's heart.

Li Yunlong felt warm inside, and when the words came to his lips, his attitude was immediately revealed: "I won't say anything, Lao Kong, just tell me how to fight, and I, Li Yunlong, will cooperate with you."

Kong Jie laughed out loud and said, "Old Li, I've been waiting for you to say this!"

After he finished speaking, Kong Jie took out the map and said confidently:

"My plan is very simple, the old rules, make a feint to the east and attack in the west, cooperate inside and outside, and fight a quick battle.

First, before attacking Huangyun Town, troops were dispatched to carry out sabotage operations on the Japanese army’s transportation lines from multiple directions, in order to attract the Japs’ attention as much as possible and distract their combat focus.

To cover our raid on Huangyun Town.

Second, use the special forces as the infiltration force to infiltrate Huangyun Town first. In addition, before the specific battle begins, I will arrange troops in advance to try to incite the puppet army in Huangyun Town to rebel.

Once the battle begins, the troops in the city can cooperate with the attacking forces to break through the gate fortifications of Huangyun Town.

Third, Huangyun Town is an important town of the Japanese army. If we send our main force to attack it slowly and with great fanfare, it will definitely alert the Japanese reinforcements in advance.

By then, even if we have a brigade of troops, we probably won't be able to force our way through.

So I prepared to train in advance, and mobilize a battalion of troops to strengthen the firepower configuration, and launch a night raid in eight vehicles, breaking through the Japanese checkpoints along the way and launching a lightning raid on Huangyun Town.

Catch the Japanese off guard!

At the same time, the other two battalions blocked several reinforcements of the Japanese army approaching Huangyun Town.

In addition, the New 1st Regiment and the troops in the surrounding bases can also be notified in advance!

We eat meat, at least let them have some soup. I, Kong Jie, can spread the word directly that as long as you help to fight the reinforcements and intercept the Japanese, you will definitely be thanked with equipment and supplies afterwards."

Kong Jie finished explaining his battle plan in one breath.

Li Yunlong, who was standing by, was stunned.

He suddenly felt like he might have been fooled. Damn it, it was clear that this guy Lao Kong had planned this for a long time. This entire battle plan must have been prepared long ago, right?

Then the two of them discussed some details regarding the combat deployment, and the plan to attack Huangyun Town was finalized.

The regiment continued to intensify the training of its soldiers.

At the same time, we actively produced equipment and ammunition in preparation for war.

In addition, intelligence comes first before the battle begins.

Arrange intelligence personnel in advance to infiltrate Huangyun Town.

Once the intelligence collection is ready, the special forces will formulate a corresponding infiltration operation plan based on the collected intelligence.

Before that, the special forces continued to conduct night infiltration operations against the Japanese strongholds.

only……

Just as Kong Jie said, if the same trick is used too many times, the effect will naturally be greatly reduced.

That night, the special forces team selected a new stronghold as a target and continued to implement the infiltration operation plan.

As a result, less than two hours after setting off, the team returned.

Hit a wall!

This was the first time that the special forces' infiltration operation against the Japanese stronghold failed.

Even before the action began, it was doomed to fail and had to retreat.

The team leader Wei Dayong looked unhappy and reported to Kong Jie:

"Captain, the Japanese are becoming more and more cunning. Our infiltration operations seem to be becoming more and more difficult."

At first, the Japanese army was completely unprepared for the Eighth Route Army's special operations.

The strongholds, watchtowers and bunkers at night could not stop the special forces from infiltrating.

Quietly.

The stronghold with impregnable external fortifications was captured by the Eighth Route Army Special Forces overnight. All the Japanese were wiped out and the puppet troops were taken away as prisoners.

And it happens continuously.

The Japs were not so stupid as to be beyond redemption. The strange situation of continuous loss of strongholds soon aroused the vigilance of the Japanese army.

The Japanese army quickly came to the conclusion:

It was not the Eighth Route Army's regular assault forces that launched a surprise attack and destroyed the Imperial Army's strongholds. Many of the strongholds did not even show any signs of being destroyed, but were completely occupied by the Eighth Route Army on the second day, and were even used as defensive fortifications by the Eighth Route Army.

Another point is that these strongholds that were captured by the Eighth Route Army in a surprise attack had one thing in common - there was no communication for help at all.

This means that the enemy killed all the Japanese and puppet troops in the stronghold before they could transmit communications.

But what kind of enemy could have such horrific methods?

Can we simply ignore the fortifications of the stronghold?

This is simply impossible for conventional combat forces to do.

For this reason, the Japanese army, realizing that the situation was not good, especially strengthened the nighttime vigilance and garrison of various strongholds.

The number of sentries increased, and patrol posts increased.

Soldiers on night watch were given strict orders to stay alert at all times and not fall asleep or lose focus, giving the enemy an opportunity to take advantage.

This move of the Japanese indeed greatly increased the difficulty for the special forces to infiltrate and attack Japanese strongholds at night.

However, Wei Dayong's brain was also working quickly. Facing the devil's specially enhanced alert system, he thought of a way to deal with it:

Harass the tired Japanese troops!

——Every night, some team members are arranged to go to the vicinity of the target stronghold in rotation.

What are you doing?

They fired cold shots to scare the Japanese and puppet troops in the stronghold and made them live in constant fear.

And the harassment continued for several days and all night long.

The Japanese and puppet troops were almost driven to death by annoyance.

As a result, the Japanese and puppet troops in the stronghold had to stand guard and be responsible for checkpoint work during the day, and had to endure harassment from the Eighth Route Army at all times at night, and they could not sleep well at all.

Within a few days, he had dark circles under his eyes and was on the verge of a double collapse both physically and mentally.

After being tortured like this for a while.

The special forces took advantage of the opportunity to attack again, and the effect was quite good. The Japanese and puppet soldiers who were on guard at night had not slept well for several days, and no matter how hard they tried to stay awake, they couldn't help dozing off.

On the second day, before dawn, the Japanese in the stronghold were all killed again, the puppet soldiers were captured, and the entire stronghold was completely occupied by the Eighth Route Army.

The Japanese were dumbfounded.

"idiot!"

The Japanese city defense commander of Shouyang, Nanbu Zhengping, was furious. He was almost on the verge of collapse due to these sneak attacks on his stronghold by the Eighth Route Army.

More of it is confusion and fear:

"What means did the damn Eighth Route Army use to sneak attack the Imperial Army's stronghold?"

With no other options, Colonel Nanbu could only pass on the news that the Shouyang area strongholds had been attacked several times by the Eighth Route Army to the First Army Command.

After hearing about the situation, the commander of the Japanese First Army, Yoshio Shinozuka, immediately realized that the combat style of the Eighth Route Army that attacked the stronghold seemed familiar.

Soon, a certain figure emerged in his mind—Yamamoto Ikki, the captain of the Yamamoto Special Forces, a special operations force under the First Army.

"Perhaps Yamamoto-kun will be very interested in this enemy!"

Shinozuka Yoshio thought thoughtfully, turned his head and ordered:

"Tell Colonel Yamamoto to come to the headquarters."

"Hi!" The Japanese messenger took the order and left.
