Chapter 304 Shouldn’t they also have a taste of this?
"Oh? Captain Qin, what method are you talking about? Is it a method to resist the heavy siege of the Japanese?"
Old Li heard Qin Long speak as if he already had some good idea, so he asked directly.
Qin Long nodded and said:
"Yes, I've always had an idea to control a certain area near Stone Village."
"After all, relying on killing the devils to capture food is not a long-term solution. We still need a place to grow food."
"To grow crops, you have to actually control an area. Otherwise, the crops will be snatched away by the Japanese when they're ripe. It's better not to grow crops at all."
"Captain Qin, it's not that I lack confidence in you."
However, after hearing what Qin Long said, Old Li frowned and said:
"The difficulty difference between wanting to control an area and just defending Stone Village is really too great."
"We don't have enough troops to spread out for garrison. I personally don't agree with your idea."
But Qin Long shook his head:
"Old Li, you are wrong."
"You are considering it from the perspective of an ordinary army, which is why you think we are short of manpower."
"But for the Xiaoyangcun District Team, there's no need to disperse a lot of troops to garrison in various locations."
Having said that, Qin Long directly pulled Lao Li out:
"Come with me, let's gather everyone together and discuss this."
On the way, Qin Long also used the intercom to notify Kong Jie, Zhou Weiguo and Yang Zhihua, asking them to come to the meeting as well.
Hearing that Qin Long had come up with a good way to deal with the Japanese's heavy siege, Kong Jie immediately ran out of his residence!
Soon, Qin Long returned to his residence, where Kong Jie, Zhou Weiguo and Yang Zhihua were already waiting.
After sitting down, Qin Long first explained his ideas in general to Kong Jie, Zhou Weiguo and Yang Zhihua.
"Old Qin, our greatest advantage is mobile warfare. Aren't you throwing that advantage away?"
Not surprisingly, Kong Jie, like Lao Li, was not optimistic about Qin Long's idea:
"You know, the biggest headache for the Japanese is our elusive guerrilla warfare. If you do this, won't you be just like the Nationalist Army?"
"Without the cooperation of other troops, it would be very difficult for us to defend an area on our own and ensure that the villagers can grow food."
"Take my advice, this idea is not feasible, really!"
However, what Qin Long said next made Kong Jie and Lao Li stunned on the spot:
"Lao Kong, Lao Li, do you know what the regular marching speed of the Xiaoyang Village District Team is now? 65 kilometers per hour!"
"Do you know what this means? It means it's very easy for the Xiaoyang Village team to control a relatively small area!"
"For example, within a 30-kilometer radius of Shitou Village, support from the Xiaoyang Village District Team can arrive in less than half an hour! I have the advantage!"
"hiss!!!"
After Kong Jie and Lao Li came to their senses, they took a deep breath!
Half an hour!
Generally speaking, even if it is a battle between dozens of people, lasting for an hour or so is considered a light battle!
Therefore, as long as support can arrive at a place within half an hour, the absolute safety of the place can basically be guaranteed!
It was not until this moment that Kong Jie truly realized how terrifying Qin Long and the Xiaoyangcun District Team were!
At the same time, Lao Li also did a quick calculation.
30 kilometers! It only takes half an hour!
In other words, the area that the Xiaoyangcun District Team can now fully control is as large as 2826 square kilometers!
423 million acres of land!
With such a large area, accommodating a population of three to five hundred thousand is no problem at all!
Could it be? !
Old Li suddenly looked up!
Looking at Qin Long who was obviously confident, an idea that seemed extremely absurd to him flashed through Lao Li's mind!
Could it be that Qin Long wanted to turn Stone Village into a nail that the Japanese couldn't pull out?! A nail that would firmly pierce the Japanese' throat?!
"Captain Qin, you don't want to turn Stone Village into a nail, do you?"
Although he felt that this idea was unrealistic, Lao Li still asked it out of some unknown reason.
Hearing what Lao Li said, Kong Jie looked at Qin Long in shock!
Good guy!
This idea is a bit cruel!
You know, Kong Jie will also be a great general in the future.
So although he seems a little dull, he is actually not stupid at all.
Therefore, as soon as Lao Li pointed it out, Kong Jie immediately understood!
"Old Qin, are you really going to do this?"
Kong Jie looked a little excited.
After all, this is the first time since the beginning of the War of Resistance Against Japan that our army has attempted to completely control a region.
If Qin Long's idea can really succeed, it will definitely accumulate extremely valuable experience for our army!
Kong Jie feels honored from the bottom of his heart to be able to witness and even participate in this important operation!
"Yes, I do intend to turn Stone Village into a nail."
Qin Long said with certainty:
"Of course, it's a bit inconvenient to control such a large area with just one army running back and forth."
"So, I plan to establish three permanent strongholds here, here, and here to control the three main roads leading to Stone Village."
As he spoke, Qin Long pointed out three locations on the battle map.
They are the Japanese strongholds of Xiaowangzhuang, Laohupo and Xiaoqingshan!
"Old Qin, do you want to take down these three Japanese strongholds and completely occupy them?"
Kong Jie looked at the locations of the three Japanese strongholds on the battle map, nodded and said:
"The locations of these three Japanese strongholds are indeed very good. They are about the same distance from each other and occupy important traffic routes."
"By then, the three strongholds will serve as a support for each other, and with the timely support of the main force, the Japanese will definitely be left with nowhere to attack!"
"Yes, that's my general idea."
Qin Long moved his finger to other locations on the battle map:
"And this is just the first step. Next, as our forces grow larger, I will capture more important strongholds of the Japanese."
"Then, step by step, we eroded the space for the Japanese to operate."
"Aren't they planning to use some kind of cage policy against us? Shouldn't we let them have a taste of this, too?"
"But Lao Qin, have you ever thought about this?"
After listening to what Qin Long said, Kong Jie frowned and asked:
"We're using mobile warfare to deal with the Japs. This tactic is always effective against the Japs' cage policy!"
"If the Japanese follow our example and use mobile warfare against us..."
Although Kong Jie didn't finish his words, Qin Long knew exactly what he meant.
However, Qin Long replied with extraordinary confidence:
"No, they don't stand a chance!"
