I am a wolf warrior

"Really?" said a strange chief, "Has the devil aviation considered it?"

"The Japanese air force doesn't need to think about it," Wang Ye said, "because we won't break out during the day."

"Xiao Wang, are you talking about breaking out at night?" the brigade commander said, "At night, how do we measure the firing rate of the artillery? Isn't our artillery regiment completely turned into a display? What firepower advantage does this have?"

"No." Wang Ye said, "Our wolf squadron will be responsible for guiding."

Chapter 177 Fighting Taiyuan

"at night?"

"How do you guide at night?"

Several military sub-commanders asked if they had never seen cannon shooting at night.

Wang Yedao: "It's very simple. Our Wolf Warrior Squadron can divide the target area in advance, and divide it into several calibration areas by using the vertical and horizontal coordinates."

"Then help the regiment artillery choose the artillery position."

"Then measure and shoot the elements in each area from the artillery position."

"In this way, as long as the artillery regiment enters the position, it can shoot the elements that we have calibrated in advance, and bombard the corresponding area on a large scale."

"Of course, except for cover bombardment,"

"Our Wolf Warrior Squadron can also provide precise guidance,"

"Precise bombardment of devil assembly points or firepower points in the target area."

Wang Ye also tasted the sweetness from the Battle of Niangziguan. The telephone guided the artillery to carry out precise strikes, which doubled the lethality. Now that he has a walkie-talkie, it is even more powerful.

In a word, the use of artillery fire by mobile columns is already at the forefront of the times.

Not to mention whether it can be compared with the military powers in Europe, but there is no doubt that it is more advanced than the Japanese army in Asia. From the perspective of military philosophy alone, it is a dimensionality reduction strike.

Several brigade commanders looked at each other.

If this is the case, the combat efficiency of artillery can be greatly improved.

One artillery regiment may exert the lethality of two or even three artillery regiments.

Because the preparation time of artillery and the adjustment time of shooting elements can be greatly shortened, which in turn can greatly increase the firing speed of artillery.

If the mobile column really has the firepower of three artillery regiments,

Is there a problem with breaking through the blockade line of the Japanese army in a certain direction?

No problem at all!It's a piece of cake!

Wang Ye said again: "Everyone, the results of the wargame deduction are absolutely fine."

"In a nutshell, as long as the Japanese army does not have more than [-] troops involved in the sweep, our mobile column can [-]% penetrate the Japanese blockade."

"As for the possibility that the Japanese troops involved in the mopping up may exceed 6 troops?"

"I don't think there is such a possibility, but it's not more than one percent."

"In the final analysis, the strength of the North China Front Army is already stretched, so it is impossible to concentrate too many troops in a battle area in the Taihang Mountains."

"Otherwise, does he still need other defense zones?"

A brigade commander asked: "Will Little Japan send reinforcements from the mainland to Shanxi?"

Wang Ye said: "Little Japan will definitely send reinforcements from the mainland to Shanxi, but the number will not be too many, at best it will be about one division."

The teacher asked, "How can you see it?"

Wang Ye said: "Because Little Japan's reserve troops are almost exhausted."

"Huh?" The chiefs present looked at each other in disbelief, "Has Little Japan's military resources been exhausted?"

"No, it's not that the supply of soldiers is exhausted." Wang Ye waved his hand and said, "It's that the supply of reserve troops has been exhausted."

A division commander asked, "Is there any difference between the depletion of troops and the depletion of reserve troops?"

"There is a difference." Wang Ye said, "Reserve service refers to young people between the ages of 18 and 25 who are eligible for enlistment. Because the number of the army is limited, they have no way to enlist in the army, so they can only be transferred to the reserve service."

"However, Yiying's military training has never fallen behind, and his military literacy is not much worse than that of devils who have joined the army."

"These little devils are young and strong, deeply poisoned by militaristic ideology and have no family background. Their fighting will is extremely firm, so their combat effectiveness is extremely strong."

"Reserve service refers to soldiers in the countryside between the ages of 25 and 60."

"These soldiers in the countryside have not only passed the prime of life, but also have a family. Many of them have also contracted bad habits such as alcoholism, gambling, and gangs. Their fighting will is much weaker, so their combat effectiveness is also low. Much more."

"Among the devils of the 9th Brigade that we annihilated this time, there were quite a few private soldiers in their thirties."

"These are the sources of reserve troops. The Japanese government has begun to recruit reserve troops with low combat effectiveness, which is enough to show that their reserve troops have been exhausted."

"So even if the Japanese base camp sends more troops to Shanxi, there will not be many."

"I'm sure that one division is already the limit for increasing troops."

After listening to Wang Ye's analysis, the boss couldn't help but look at the brigade commander again, thinking that this is really a talent, and he can infer so much useful information just from a few devils in their 30s!

This intelligence comparison and analysis ability can be used to work on the intelligence front.

Wang Ye added: "So now, we can discuss the next move."

"Next step?" Another brigade commander asked suspiciously, "What is there to discuss about the next move? Since the mobile column can penetrate the blockade, it must continue to expand the gap, and then defend the two wings to ensure that the headquarters and the military area The main force broke through the gap, and the mobile column followed after completing the covering task."

"This is just a conventional style of play." Wang Ye said, "I also have an unconventional style of play."

"Unconventional play?" The boss looked at the teacher and the deputy chief of staff and asked, "What play?"

Wang Ye left the sand table, walked to the big map pasted on the wall, pointed to the location of Taiyuan on the map and said, "This unconventional way of playing is to fight Taiyuan."

"What, hit Taiyuan?"

Almost all the chief executives present were startled when they heard the words.

However, if Li Yunlong was present, he would probably raise his hands in favor.

After a long while, the teacher said: "Xiao Wang, beating Taiyuan is not a joke."

Wang Ye said: "Master, don't worry, the attack on Taiyuan is not really to attack Taiyuan, but just to force Yoshio Shinozuka to transfer troops from the Taihang base to help Taiyuan."

The teacher said: "You mean to encircle Wei and save Zhao?"

"Yes, encircle Wei and save Zhao." Wang Ye said, "As long as the mobile column demonstrates its strong attacking capabilities and assumes the stance of attacking Taiyuan, Yoshio Shinozuka must consider the possibility of Taiyuan being captured by us."

"Then to be on the safe side, Shinozuka Yoshio can only withdraw his troops from the Taihang base."

"Because Yoshio Shinozuka cannot bear the consequences of Taiyuan's fall."

Taiyuan is not only the headquarters of the 1st Army, but also gathers the manpower and material resources of Shanxi Province.

In particular, Taiyuan also has an arsenal capable of producing daily weapons. Once this arsenal falls into the hands of the Eighth Route Army, the Eighth Route Army will be able to obtain a large amount of weapons and equipment overnight.

This consequence cannot be remedied even if the Taihang base is wiped out.

Therefore, once Taiyuan is in danger, Yoshio Shinozuka must return to his teacher to save himself.

A brigade commander asked: "What if the Japanese army is divided into two groups? Half of them will return to Taiyuan, and the other half will stay in the Taihang base to launch raids?"

"That would be great."

Wang Ye said: "The little devil wants to occupy both ends, but in the end he can only lose both ends."

The brigade commander was taken aback when he heard the words, and then suddenly realized that if half of the troops could launch a sweeping operation against the Taihang base area, the devils would not have to mobilize so many troops in the first place.

The brigade commander said: "What if Yoshio Shinozuka transfers troops from southern Shanxi to help?"

Wang Ye said: "It's too far to move troops from the south of Shanxi, and it will take a long time."

After a pause, he said again: "More importantly, Jinnan probably has no soldiers to transfer."

"How is this possible?" A chief questioned, "There are three divisions of devils stationed in Jinnan."

Wang Ye said: "If Yoshio Shinozuka wants to gather an army of [-] to sweep our Taihang base, at least one and a half divisions must be dispatched from southern Shanxi to go north."

"Then, there are only one and a half divisions left in Jinnan."

"If you draw troops from southern Shanxi again, how many troops should you draw?"

"If you smoke less, I'm afraid it's useless. If you smoke too much, there is still the Central Army on Zhongtiao Mountain."

The boss said: "According to your style of play, wouldn't the headquarters and the main force of the Taihang Military Region not have to leave? Just stick to the base and wait for Yoshio Shinozuka to withdraw his troops?"

Wang Ye said with a smile, "This is what the Taiyuan attack was for."

After a pause, he added: "However, this unconventional style of play also has risks."

The brigade commander said: "Xiao Wang, you mean Yoshio Shinozuka has prepared in advance?"

"Yes." Wang Ye said, "If Yoshio Shinozuka had taken precautions in advance, we would be in trouble."

The boss said: "Then make an anti-sweeping plan according to the conventional method of play, and then make a battle plan according to this unconventional method of play, and prepare! Then we will decide according to the situation."

Wang Ye said, "Then simply make three plans."

"Well, three plans?" The teacher asked in surprise, "What is the other plan?"

Wang Ye said: "The unconventional play and the conventional play just mentioned, one has the least loss but higher risk, and the other has a greater loss but the least risk. In addition to these two play, there is a compromise play."

"This compromise method is that after the mobile column breaks through the blockade, instead of attacking Taiyuan, it returns to attack the various mopping-up troops of the Japanese army, forcing the Japanese army to shrink its forces and fight our mobile column for a decisive battle."

"Then, lead the devil's sweeping troops away from the Taiyuan base."

"This way, the headquarters and the main force of the military region don't need to evacuate."

What Wang Ye said is actually the way of mobile warfare. According to the historical process, the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army did not evolve from guerrilla warfare to mobile warfare until 1945, and then evolved from small-scale mobile warfare to large-scale mobile warfare, and finally evolved to the final form of warfare. : The big corps big deep decisive battle!

But now the sports battle has to be advanced.

The boss waited for the head and his eyes lit up.

This method is very good, right?

……

Beiping, Iron Lion Alley.

Neiji Okamura invited Yoshio Shinozuka to have breakfast.

"Xiaozuka-kun, I have carefully read your plan from beginning to end."

Neiji Okamura's tone changed completely, and he even used the honorifics of worship, and said while eating breakfast: "I must apologize to you for my rudeness yesterday."

"Your Majesty, your words are serious."

Shinozuka Yoshio got up quickly: "Actually, it's also my fault for not making it clear."

"Xiaozuka-kun, please sit down." Okamura Ningcun said, "Operation Plan A is very well done. You can try it on the Shanxi battlefield first. If it is effective, you can spread it to the entire North China battlefield."

After a while, he said, "If you have any needs, just ask."

"If the front army can satisfy you, I will transfer it to you immediately. If you need assistance from the base camp, I will immediately apply to the base camp. In short, this time, we must smash the bandit area."

"We must not let the Taihang bandit area continue to grow!"

"Although this idiot Kazuki Yamamoto's special warfare methods are in a mess, his discussion on the combat effectiveness of the Eighth Route Army still hits the nail on the head."

"At this stage, the threat of the Eighth Route Army is indeed greater than that of the Jinsui Army and the Central Army."

"Especially the Eighth Route Army in the Taihang bandit area, whether it is the quality of soldiers or weapons and equipment, is far superior to the Eighth Route Army in other bandit areas, and the threat level is even ranked first!"

"So the imperial army must give priority to smashing the Taihang bandit area!"

"Your Excellency, General, is wise!" Yoshio Shinozuka was a little excited.

After hesitating for a while, he said again: "If there is any need, the biggest need is ammunition, especially chemical bombs. Can you adjust as much as possible?"

The so-called chemical bombs are actually gas bombs.

Gas bombs are divided into erosive gas bombs, tear gas bombs, suffocating bombs and other types.

Due to the general lack of gas masks in the Chinese army, the lethality of chemical weapons is far greater than that of ordinary artillery shells.

"No problem." Neiji Okamura agreed, "Even if the base camp can't produce more ammunition, I will find a way to transfer it from the Kwantung Army's inventory. Need, I dare not say more, but there is no problem in providing ammunition for a while.”

"Great." Shinozuka Yoshio said happily, "This is enough."

Neiji Okamura smiled and said again: "Also, I want to tell you about the increase in troops."

"Mr. Shinozuka, I have some good news for you. The base camp has agreed to increase its troops, and is planning to use the 2nd Guards Infantry Brigade as the backbone to expand into the 2nd Guards Division and transfer it to the Shanxi battlefield."
