Chapter 930 Drive out the Japanese pirates and restore our homeland!
At the same time, Li Yunlong also led the Independent Regiment to be stationed in the industrial area of their base for a long time, so it is normal that he knows more.
"Brother Yunfei, to tell you the truth, I'm just a roughneck, I don't understand these complicated things at all. It's just that our political commissar often mentions them to me, so I remember them."
Upon hearing this, Chu Yunfei wanted to give up on the test. Regardless of whether Li Yunlong was telling the truth or making it up, it was a clear rejection.
However, Li Yunlong's subsequent words caused the situation to take an unexpected turn.
"However, I can have someone demonstrate it. With Brother Yunfei's abilities, I estimate he'll understand the meaning at a glance."
"Brother Yunlong, you're too kind. Thank you very much."
This result greatly satisfied Chu Yunfei. Compared to Li Yunlong's explanation, he trusted what he saw with his own eyes more.
Next, Li Yunlong ordered his men to quickly dismantle the small sand table closest to the door.
Upon receiving the order, the operations staff immediately directed the technical personnel at headquarters to disassemble the sand table.
One sand table was immediately divided into twenty parts, and the scattered sand tables were quickly placed into special boxes and secured.
The entire process, from disassembly to packing, took only twenty-four minutes. Chu Yunfei personally confirmed this with his watch outside the door; there was no faking it.
Li Yunlong glanced at his watch and said smugly, "It took less than half an hour. It seems these kids have been practicing quite well."
"Alright, that concludes today's exercise. I'd like to give you a verbal commendation for your performance today. Now, pack your things back."
After watching the whole process, Chu Yunfei immediately fell into a state of deep thought.
In his 358th Division, this kind of combat sand table was basically a bulky, disposable item.
People are only sent to make them when the troops are stationed there for a long time. It takes at least three to five days to make a qualified sand table.
But this place only takes half an hour, so even in case of an emergency, we can easily take our belongings and evacuate.
It's so convenient, so incredibly convenient.
This not only saves time and effort, but also saves a lot of manpower. You should know that the people who can create this kind of combat sand table are not ordinary people. They need to be highly educated and specially trained.
Not only the division headquarters, but also the infantry regiments below them, needed something that would facilitate command and control of operations.
It can be said that Chief of Staff Fang had a very important task: to lead his subordinates in creating a sand table model.
However, implementing this modular approach now can save a great deal of time, which is also very important for a combat unit.
"Brother Yunlong, this modular design is a great thing, and it's not just for making sand table models."
"Brother Yunfei, you have a good eye. This modular design is a system. It is only a small part used on the sand table, but it plays a significant role in our logistical support."
"We have now developed several modules for our base, which are designed for different modes of transport. Our logistics personnel can quickly carry out transportation, which is extremely convenient."
"Alright, let's not talk about these trivial matters for now. Let's talk about the battle at hand."
After he finished speaking, he asked his staff to give a briefing on the current troop strength comparison between the enemy and himself.
Upon hearing this, Chu Yunfei immediately frowned, and after thinking for a long time, he finally spoke:
“Brother Yunlong, although the Iwakawa Division is only a Class B division and its strength cannot compare with those old-established standing divisions, its configuration is quite complete.”
"According to the troop strength report just now, your three columns of the Eighth Route Army have a total of 50,000 men. Even if you add my 358th Division of 10,000 men, it's only 60,000 men."
"The troop ratio is only 3:1. If it's a siege, it's fine. As long as our soldiers stay in the strong fortifications, these 20,000 Japanese devils won't be able to break through our 60,000-strong defense line."
"Even if we meet in the wild, we are not afraid. Things are different now. Even my 358th Division is well-equipped and its soldiers are well-trained, not to mention your Eighth Route Army."
"If the two armies meet in the field, as long as we pay a certain price, it is not a big problem to defeat an enemy division. As for annihilating them, it is almost impossible."
"Since the start of the war with the Japanese, we have rarely had the chance to annihilate an entire enemy division. Those battles involved hundreds of thousands of people and were large-scale campaigns."
"But it's really difficult to send our troops to attack the enemy's strong defenses. Huicheng is one of the major cities in Jin Province, with complete fortifications, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack."
"Our troops still lack heavy weapons for siege warfare, and the casualties would be too great if we tried to attack by force."
To be honest, he was not optimistic about the entire battle plan after he learned about it.
After all, it is generally acknowledged that the Chinese army is better at defense than offense.
Especially their Jin-Sui Army, they're alright at defensive battles, but it's really difficult for them to launch an attack.
Not only did the ordinary soldiers and junior officers of the Jin-Sui Army think this way, but even the division commander Chu Yunfei thought so, mainly because none of them had ever fought such a tough battle.
But military orders are absolute, and he dared not disobey the command. So he could only voice his concerns in front of Li Yunlong.
It wasn't that his men weren't brave; it was just that attacking the city head-on would be too difficult for them.
Faced with this situation, Li Yunlong could only convey the headquarters commander's intentions:
"Brother Yunfei, to tell you the truth, the reason why the higher-ups launched this campaign is very simple: to accumulate a lot of experience in siege warfare."
"The Japanese attack capabilities have been greatly weakened, and we also have a large number of guerrillas and militia behind enemy lines, which have tied down a significant amount of the enemy's manpower."
"But we can't keep defending like this forever. Once we're stronger, we'll definitely have to reclaim our lost territory."
"By the way, Old Zhao seems to be nagging me a lot, something about driving out the bandits and giving me back something. You know, I'm not very smart, I can't remember that much."
"Brother Yunlong, it is about driving out the Japanese pirates and restoring our land!"
"Yes, yes, that's the sentence. It sounds really inspiring. Brother Yunfei is so knowledgeable; he knows everything."
After Chu Yunfei finished speaking, he fell silent, and his expression became somewhat dejected.
He was all too familiar with this phrase; he had recited it countless times in his mind and kept it constantly in mind.
But it's easier said than done. With China's current overall strength, completely driving out the invaders is an incredibly difficult task.
It can be said that the current state of the war, with the two sides locked in a stalemate with the Japanese invaders, has exceeded everyone's expectations.
Even many Chinese people who were originally pessimistic and desperate are now beginning to re-examine the balance of power between themselves and the enemy, and have found that the situation is not as bad as they imagined.
