Wang Chengzhu smiled and said: "Brigadier Commander, I have indeed thought of a plan to defeat the enemy. However, whether it can be used still needs to be decided by the leaders. In addition, our overall goal is to attack the entire Zhengtai Railway line. Obviously not

We may attack the county town of Yangquan alone, because my combat plan requires the full cooperation of the remaining regiments of the 129th Division."

The brigade commander nodded and said, "You continue."

Wang Chengzhu: "If we want to complete our combat plan and achieve the ultimate goal of attacking the Zhengtai Railway, we first need to understand the strength of the Japanese army and the deployment of troops at each stronghold."

With that said, Wang Chengzhu picked up a baton and walked to the wall, pointed at the map and said: "In order to facilitate the attack, I have divided the current targets of the Shotai Railway into three levels based on the strength of the Japanese and puppet garrison troops."

"The first level is the four counties heavily garrisoned by Japanese soldiers, namely Jinzhong, garrisoned by the headquarters of the Japanese 9th Brigade, Yangshou, garrisoned by the first part of the 9th Brigade, Yangquan, garrisoned by the independent mixed 1st Brigade, and

The first unit of the independent mixed 1st Brigade is stationed at Pingding, plus Niangzi Pass, there are a total of 5 targets.

These enemy targets are the hardest bones to chew, but Shouyang and Pingding only have bones, while Jinzhong, Yangquan and Niangziguan have meat in addition to bones.

By capturing Jinzhong and Yangquan, we can obtain all the supplies of the Japanese 9th Brigade and the 1st Independent Mixed Brigade, and by capturing Niangziguan, we can obtain a large number of machines in the ordnance station, which can be used by me."

"But these strongholds are guarded by at least one Japanese battalion or more, and they also have strong walls. It is not easy to capture them."

"The second level is medium-sized strongholds garrisoned by at least one Japanese squadron or above, such as Jucheng, Lijiazhuang, Pingping, Nanyanzhu, etc., with a total of 12 targets.

In addition to the Japanese, there are also a large number of puppet troops in these strongholds. They have also built complete fortifications and are surrounded by a large number of small strongholds."

"Faced with such a large stronghold, if the main regiments do not have heavy artillery and other offensive firepower and carry out a strong attack, the casualties will definitely be huge."

"The third level is a small stronghold with only one squad or less of Japanese troops stationed there. Some of these strongholds even have only puppet troops and not even Japanese soldiers.

There are more than 120 such strongholds, each deployed within 10 to 15 kilometers on both sides of the Zhengtai-Taiwan Railway."

After a pause, Wang Chengzhu changed his voice and continued: "For such a small stronghold, the main force groups can easily do it, and they can even attack several strongholds at the same time."

"But what I want to emphasize is that when launching an operation, each unit must move quickly, otherwise, if it drags on for a long time, the Japanese in the surrounding medium and large strongholds will definitely divide their troops to come for reinforcements.

Of course, this is not the most critical thing, because we can also divide our forces to stop them, or even set up an ambush halfway to destroy them!

"Cheating Kangxi"

What we really need to guard against are the Japanese 36th Division and the 114th Division stationed in southern Shanxi and Baoding. If the delay is too long, these two Japanese armies will definitely divide their forces and return to support, and then the situation will be really passive."

Brigadier: "Zhuzi, since you have thought of this, you must have some countermeasures. Please tell me your detailed plan."

Wang Chengzhu picked up the baton and said seriously: "First of all, the entire combat operation can be roughly divided into three stages."

"The first stage is to clean up the perimeter, dispatch all combat troops of our 129th Division, and strive to remove all small strongholds along the main railway in the shortest possible time."

"At the same time, all telephone lines were cut off. As a result, the Japanese in 12 large strongholds and 4 county towns became blind and deaf, and the initiative in the war fell into our hands."

"By then, we will be executing the second and third phases of operations and launching attacks on 12 large strongholds, 4 county towns and the Japanese in Niangzi Pass."

Immediately, Wang Chengzhu recounted his battle plan in detail.

His battle plan was roughly the same as the battle plan formulated by the headquarters, because it was formulated based on slight improvements from the historical Hundred Regiment Campaign.

The only difference is that the Hundred Regiment War in history only carried out the first two stages of Wang Chengzhu's campaign and did not attack the county seat.

After listening to Wang Chengzhu's battle plan, Li Yunlong was immediately excited in his heart. If he really did this, he would have to apply for the main attack mission, and he would definitely be able to get a lot of money in this way.

Ding Wei and Kong Jie were also a little ready to make a move, because the Eighth Route Army had never carried out a combat plan of this scale since its establishment, and it was an unprecedented event.

Among the main group leaders, only Cheng Xiazi and Xu Shengji had serious expressions, not knowing what they were thinking.

The chief of staff said: "Zhuzi, it is true that if we mobilize the entire army, we can indeed defeat all the small Japanese strongholds, but the problem is that those large strongholds and even the Japanese in the county will definitely not watch our actions and will not

Send troops for reinforcements?"

Wang Chengzhu smiled and said: "We are afraid that the little devils will not send troops for reinforcements. Otherwise, if they really send troops for reinforcements, we can set up an ambush halfway and set up a encirclement point for reinforcements.

This can actually provide convenience for the second and third stages.”

"But I predict that the Japanese in large strongholds will never dare to separate their forces for rescue, because once the phone lines are cut off, they will have no idea what is happening outside."

"Moreover, more than 100 strongholds were attacked at the same time. The mobile brigades of the 9th Brigade and the 1st Independent Mixed Brigade alone could not save them at all. We cannot divide several infantry brigades into more than 100 detachments.

Moreover, they do not dare to risk leaving the county empty by rushing out in droves."

"As for the Japanese independent mixed 2nd Brigade, it is the general reserve of the 1st Army stationed in Shanxi. It will not be dispatched unless it is absolutely necessary."

"So I concluded that once the Japanese army's small strongholds were attacked at the same time, the Japanese army would definitely give up the rescue, and then order the Japanese and puppet troops in each small stronghold to retreat and defend the 12 large strongholds, as well as Niangziguan and 4 county towns.

In order to look for opportunities to prepare for a counterattack!"

"Therefore, the first phase of the operation must be fast, accurate and ruthless. Each regiment must be as covert as possible to contact the enemy. Then all troops will act together to strive to start the battle for more than 100 small strongholds at the same time."

"The most important thing is that we not only need to capture these strongholds, but also eliminate all the Japanese and puppet troops in these strongholds. We must not allow these thousands of Japanese and puppet troops to retreat to large strongholds."

"Otherwise, it will not only cause serious interference to the subsequent second phase of combat operations, but may even cause all subsequent plans to be aborted!"

The brigade commander thought for a long time, made a mental calculation, and then said firmly: "The first phase of the operation can be guaranteed. As long as we can covertly engage the enemy, there will be absolutely no problem. At least we can guarantee the elimination of most of the Japanese and puppets in the stronghold."
