After the reports of several battalion company commanders ended, Chief of Staff Zhong Chenggong concluded.

"Captain, I'll do it. From the beginning of the war to the present, except for the cavalry battalion, we have suffered a total of 1,651 casualties, and 1,219 people are directly sacrificed. The rest are all losing their combat effectiveness due to minor injuries!"

"I almost lost the troops of two battalions!" Wang Ping replied with a calm face.

Seeing Wang Ping frowning and not speaking, Zhong Chenggong quickly added: "Although the casualties are a little too big, the results are also very big!"

"The food transported by the Japanese was not only blown up by 13 grain trucks, but some food was lost, and the rest was intact. Now the Japanese planes are no longer possible. If nothing unexpected happens, these foods have completely fallen into our pockets and become our spoils!"

"Preliminary estimates are that three million kilograms of grain are only a lot more than a lot!"

"There are also ammunition. On the five-kilometer highway, there were over 1,500 ammunition boxes scattered by the Japanese. Thirty percent of the ammunition boxes were ordinary machine gun bullets, and the remaining ammunition boxes were all shells and grenades."

"Preliminary statistics show that there are more than one million machine gun bullets, more than two thousand grenades, and more than five thousand mountain artillery shells of various caliber, mortar shells, more than five thousand!"

"In addition, the rifles seized from the entire battlefield, except for the loss and supplementary losses, can be at least one thousand left. The number of light and heavy machine guns is very small, which is not enough for the loss of the troops, so no statistics are conducted."

"If there were no Japanese plane bombing, we would have had nearly a thousand more rifles!"

"The power of the aviation bomb is too great. If a bomb is hit, the living creatures within dozens of meters around will be blown away, and the weapons will be blown into a pile of scrap iron."

"Eighty percent of the various weapons lost on the battlefield were caused by Japanese aircraft bombing!"

Wang Ping frowned and replied: "No matter what, the price we paid for this battle is too high..."

At this moment, the deputy company commander of the communications company suddenly rushed over.

"The leader of the regiment, chief of staff, political commissar emergency telegram..."

Zhong Chenggong snatched the telegram and read it, his face became solemn, and he frowned and reported.

"We are surrounded!"

"The intelligence department just received the intelligence. The Japanese army dispatched five infantry brigades to surround us, four of which surrounded us, one infantry brigade, one cavalry brigade, and one field artillery brigade attacked us under the cover of the aircraft!"

Before Wang Ping could speak, a very excited smile appeared on Rongjun's face.

"Captain, this is the fat meat delivered to the door!"

"The three battalions I brought, including the guard battalion, air defense battalion, and cavalry battalion, we have an absolute advantage in military strength!"

"We are not bad in terms of firepower. Nearly ten anti-aircraft machine guns, six mountain cannons, six infantry cannons, and nine mortars. As long as we find a chance, we can kill them!"

"I suggest that the troops hide on the spot and find an opportunity to eat them after the Japanese come!"

"Anyway, there are four brigades of Japanese soldiers blocking the surroundings, and we have brought millions of kilograms of food, weapons and ammunition. We will definitely not be able to return to the base in a short time when we take the road!"

Wang Ping frowned and cursed: "You have healed the scar and forgot the pain~ No, the scar has not healed yet!"

"Are you a fool who is a Japanese? You have taken more than a thousand people into our encirclement and were eaten by us!"

"Aviation, the Japanese have powerful aviation, and this advantage cannot be forgotten no matter when you act as a commander!"

The Invalid Army immediately reacted and replied with an awkward look on his face: "Captain, what do you mean is a small Japanese in the infantry brigade who broke into the encirclement to surround us just a cover..."

"I don't know if it's a guise, but one thing I can be sure of: "The Japanese will definitely dispatch a large number of planes to deal with us!"

"This can be seen from the battle just now!"

"We just repelled the three planes, and then three more planes came over. When did the Japanese take such importance to dealing with our Eighth Route Army?"

"No!" Speaking of this, Wang Ping's face had become more and more serious.

Then he continued to analyze: "But, today the Japanese actually did it. Before and after an ambush, six planes were sent to deal with us!"

"Look at the current layout of the Japanese, I just sent people to surround us and surround us here, and did not directly reinforce here and attack us!"

"Don't you think this is abnormal?"

Zhong Chenggong also frowned and replied thoughtfully: "The Japanese are afraid of being beaten by us... We don't know that the Japanese in Linfen City must be afraid of being beaten by us, and they dare not send troops rashly, for fear that the reinforcements that they had finally drawn were swallowed by us..."

"Not bad..." Wang Ping affirmed.

"The division commander who had just taken office in the Japanese was very smart. If you don't fight hard with us, try to use your advantage on the battlefield, the aviation army!"

"It would rather dispatch a large number of aircraft to reinforce the battlefield than send troops to attack us!"

"If I'm not mistaken, the Japanese must have wanted to use a squad of infantry and a squad of cavalry to search for us. After finding us, they will dispatch a large number of planes to attack us from the air!"

At this time, another radio operator rushed over in the communications company.

"Captain of the regiment, chief of staff, emergency telegram from the investigation company!"

Wang Ping took the telegram directly, glanced at the content of the telegram and marked four dots on the map!

After Zhong Chengcheng read the telegram, he saw the four dots marked by Wang Ping on the map, and immediately reacted.

"Captain, I'm sure your judgment just now is correct!"

"There are a large number of Japanese soldiers entering the map, each with half an infantry brigade. They are building fortifications. These four points are the only way for us to walk the highway to leave here. The Japanese's move directly blocked us here!"

“For us now, there are only three choices…”

"Either give up the food and lead the troops on the small path back to the base. Or take the food to attack one of the four points, fight a bloody path, and bring the food and ammunition back to the base together!"

"The last choice is to stay here with food and wait for the opportunity to break out!"

"We worked hard to fight this war just for food, and we definitely couldn't give up!"

"It is not realistic to attack the four points of the Japanese defending the heavy troops. If you guess correctly, this is what the Japanese want to see the most."

"The terrain of these four points is almost in progress, and there are seven or eight hundred Japanese soldiers. It is difficult to break through in a short period of time. It is certain that the troops suffer heavy casualties. Maybe they will be surrounded by Japanese soldiers and will be completely wiped out!"

"So, only the third option is suitable for us! But there is also a big problem here!"
