Chapter 743 Persuasion

"You Ning, if our secret code is deciphered by the Japanese army, won't all your secrets in the fifth theater be known to the Japanese?"

"So, I entered the Fifth War Zone for the first time as a surveying and mapping team, and when I contacted De Gong, I used this identity." Luo Yao explained.

"You assumed from the beginning that the secret code of my fifth theater had been deciphered by the Japanese, right?"

"Yes, Mr. De, I am doing this not only for my own safety, but also to gain an asymmetric advantage in intelligence." Luo Yao explained.

Although Li Delin didn't know where Luo Yao came up with these new terms, you didn't prevent him from understanding its meaning literally.

It’s me who hides what I use to deal with you so that you don’t know about it, and reveals it at the critical moment to catch you off guard.

This is called a war that never tires of deceit.

"Can Team Leader Fang guarantee that his tail is not exposed?" Huang Xuecun retorted angrily.

"Yes, I can't guarantee it, because sometimes, even if I do everything I can, I can't avoid leaks." Luo Yao nodded.

"Why is this?" Li Delin asked in surprise.

"The passing of people leaves traces, and the passing of geese leaves their voices. Some things are not like erasing pencil characters with an eraser. They can be erased at will. Even if an eraser can erase the embedded characters, we still have the technical means to restore them. That's the truth." Luo Yaodao, "We first took the waterway and then took the car. Although we tried not to stay overnight in the towns to avoid exposing our whereabouts, we still left traces along the way. As long as someone can contact us, we will analyze the consequences. , you will naturally know that I have come to the fifth theater."

"Can anyone really do this?"

"Knowing the smallest details, Xuecun, little friend You Ning is right. Most of the information we get is not directly told to you. It is all analyzed from known information. If anyone knows that little friend You Ning is not here at the moment, Mountain City, and a so-called surveying and mapping team suddenly came from the Fifth War Zone. Comparing the time of departure with the time of arrival, it is not difficult to draw such a conclusion." Li Delin nodded.

"Gong De, if this person keeps staring at you and studying you, he will be a very scary opponent." Luo Yaodao.

"Do you have such an opponent?"

"Yes, Kondo Keiichi from the Eleventh Army Kondo Organization." Luo Yao said calmly, "This person is a veteran spy and a China expert. Last time, he personally led a team to sneak into Xiangcheng and wanted to sneak attack on us. , fortunately I saved my life, and I survived. His elite special agent team was wiped out by me, leaving him alone to flee. If someone hadn't protected him, he would have been ordered to commit seppuku."

"Kondo Keiichi is this old devil. He is cunning and very difficult to deal with. Many of our intelligence agents in the Fifth Theater Zone were captured by his Kondo agencies and eventually died tragically. The Japanese agents trained by this person committed crimes in our Fifth Theater Zone. There are so many sins!" Speaking of Kondo Keiichi, Huang Xuecun's eyes were slightly red.

Obviously, the Fifth War Zone suffered a lot from this old devil.

"Kondo Keiichi's intelligence team in Yamashiro was taken over by me. Now he wants to eat me with all my bones. Therefore, he will definitely pay close attention to my movements. The news about me in Laohekou may be hidden from him. It won't be long," Luo Yao said.

"You mean, he will repeat his same tactics and send a team of secret agents to assassinate you?"

"I don't know this, but if you think about it from his perspective, it would be difficult for him to kill me when I am in the mountain city, but once I come out, it will be the same. Not only will the chance be much greater, but this time he will not I made the mistake of staying outside Xiangcheng.”

"Team Leader Fang, are you so sure that he will definitely come?" Huang Xuecun asked in surprise.

"If he knows I'm here, I'm sure he will come if I give him a chance."

"Gong De, this is too dangerous!"

"What's dangerous? Where is there no danger?" Li Delin understood Huang Xuecun's thoughts. The security force at Laohekou was a bit weak. If Japanese agents really got in, the lies and destructive power would be great.

Li Delin was worthy of being born in strong winds and waves. The general's demeanor was different, and there was a gleam in his eyes.

Apparently not only was he not afraid, but he was also thinking about other ideas.

"You Ning, if the news that you are in Laohekou spreads, will it induce Kondo Keiichi to come over?" Li Delin asked.

"Do you want Mr. De to use me as bait to attract Keiichi Kondo to come out of Jiangcheng?" Luo Yao said.

"Since you two are rivals, and Kondo Keiichi wants to get rid of you, why don't you want to get rid of him? If he stays in his hometown in Jiangcheng, won't it be difficult to deal with him?" Li Delin said.

"Oh, what Mr. De said is true. He really woke up the dreamer with his words." Luo Yao smiled happily.

"Have you thought about it a long time ago?" Li Delin sneered, "Fox of the military commander, it was you who just said that, how could you not have thought of it?"

Luo Yao looked embarrassed. Who is Li Delin? He has been wrestling with the old man for decades. Can't you tell?

"Okay, whatever ideas you have, just pour them out." Li Delin smiled knowingly, his face changing faster than flipping through a book.

As expected of a battle-hardened veteran, he could see through Luo Yao's little thoughts at a glance.

"Gong De, we must first assume a premise, that is, our enemy, the 11th Army of the Japanese Army in Central China has mastered our army's communication code, and at least 60% of our military deployment is controlled by the other party. In this case Under such circumstances, how can we prevent the Japanese army from achieving its strategic goals or defeating the current Japanese army." Luo Yao said with a very serious expression.

After hearing this, Li Delin's expression became solemn. Defeating the current Japanese army may not be something he can do, but he must do it to prevent the Japanese army from achieving the goal of annihilating the effective forces in the fifth theater.

If we retreat further, we can still retreat to that point. If the north gate of the southwest half of the mountain is lost, the mountain city will be in danger.

If Luo Yao's hypothesis was true, the consequences would be really serious, and he couldn't help but take it seriously.

"Go on."

"It is definitely too late to adjust the deployment on a large scale now, but we can still change the local situation on a small scale. For example, we can fire the first shot and take a preemptive strike." Luo Yaodao.

Take the initiative to attack?

Bold enough.

But does the fifth theater now have the strength to take the initiative to attack?

Li Delin knew very well that there was a shortage of heavy weapons, let alone artillery. The average ammunition for soldiers only had two or three bases.

How long can two or three bases be used?

Therefore, the initial deployment of the Fifth War Zone for this war was similar to last year's Battle of Suizao. They relied on Tongbai Mountain and the mountainous areas of northwest Hubei to resist section by section to achieve the effect of delaying and consuming the Japanese army. This was the old man's strategy of exchanging space for time. Let’s see who can’t hold on first.

If you attack first, you can take the initiative. Everyone knows this. But the problem is, how can the national army attack if they don't have the weapons to attack the enemy?

Isn't that a meat bun beating a dog, and there will be no return?

"Team Leader Fang, are you too fanciful?" Li Delin said nothing, but Huang Xuecun couldn't help but refuted it, "What kind of active attack are we doing? Are we going to use our skulls to collide with the tanks and cannons of the little Japs? ?”

"Secretary Huang, the active attack I am talking about is not a real attack, but a feint attack and harassment operation."

"You mean to actively provoke the Japanese army and let the Japanese army expose their deployment?"

"Yes, if the Japanese army knows our army's deployment, they will definitely deploy troops in a targeted manner for our army's defensive operations. As long as we take action, we will probably be able to defeat their deployment!" Luo Yao explained.

"You want to use this to support your judgment, right?"

"Yes, if that's the case, then we are really in danger." Luo Yao said.

"Tell me anything else." Li Delin asked in a deep voice.

"If this is the case, then we must first cut off the enemy's spying on our intelligence, that is, activate new secret codes in the entire theater, and then adjust the deployment according to the prepared plan, abandon part of the forward positions, shrink the force, and at the same time send out small groups of troops layer by layer Block the Japanese army and buy time for the retreat and strategic maneuver of the large forces."

"Is this Xue Boling's tactics in the Battle of Xiangcheng?" Li Delin thought about it carefully and said.

"Almost the same, but different..."

"Outside operations require strong mobility. Can our two legs outrun the Japanese's four legs and car wheels?" Huang Xuecun shook his head and denied.

Li Delin lowered his eyebrows in thought and did not express an opinion.

He agreed with the use of a new password. Even if Luo Yao didn't suggest it, he still felt it was necessary.

Regardless of whether the Japanese army has deciphered the communication code of the fifth theater, it is better to replace it. However, if the Japanese army can quickly decipher the code, the effect will be very limited.

This made him very confused.

"Wait a minute, if the Japanese army knew about our deployment, wouldn't their current troop deployment and combat plan probably be fake?" Huang Xuecun discovered a problem.

"That's right. If they master our deployment and secretly change their plans on our deployment, but pretend that nothing has changed, what does it mean?"

"The Japanese know that we can decipher their communication codes!" Li Delin blurted out.

"They know that we are capable of deciphering their secret codes and making targeted deployments, but they appear to be doing nothing, waiting for the moment of activation."

"When the Japanese army changes their secret codes, that's when they attack!" Huang Xuecun's eyes lit up.

It's a bit convoluted, but Li Delin and Huang Xuecun are both smart people, and they immediately understood what Luo Yao meant.

This is to treat others in their own way, and then use another preemptive attack. In this way, you have blocked me, and I have blocked you. Although the Japanese army still has an advantage in terms of overall strength, the defensive side's advantage can offset part of it.

Both parties are brought to the same level.

The victory of this battle will all depend on the tactical command capabilities of the commanders on both sides.

If the hypothesis does not hold true, then there will be no loss for the five theaters, and they will even gain a certain upper hand as soon as the war starts.

This battle was actually easier to fight.

"Xuecun, inform the two chiefs of staff, Xu and Wang, as well as officers at the level of section chiefs of the staff office, to gather at the commander's headquarters immediately. I will convene an emergency military meeting, and no one will be absent without reason." Li Delin ordered Huang Xuecun categorically.

"Yes, Mr. De."
