Bright Sword Military System

Chapter 1449 Strategic Initiative
In fact, Naozaburo Okabe and Shinta Kono were a little worried. If the devils really relied on helicopters to organize troops to cross the Taihang Mountains, the situation they imagined would basically not happen.

The reason is that the air defense system of the Eighth Route Army is very large... A complete air defense system requires 23 vehicles to be shipped.

Although the Eighth Route Army has helicopters, 23 helicopters will be dispatched once it is deployed, and it is not sure whether the Devil helicopters will appear in this area. What's more, at this time, the Eighth Route Army has only about [-] helicopters and only five air defense systems, all of which are deployed. Where are there so many helicopters and air defense systems to intercept the Devils helicopters at strategic locations on the front line?

This is information asymmetry: the devils didn't know that the Eighth Route Army's air defense system was so complicated. They thought the air defense system was just a radar plus anti-aircraft missiles, which could be easily deployed in mountainous areas, so they didn't dare to act rashly.

At this time, Wang Xuexin didn't know this, he didn't even know that the devil owned a helicopter... Naozaburo Okabe did this very secretly, and all the training was done in the local area, including the rappelling fighters.

Because Naozaburo Okabe knew very well that helicopters were flying in the sky. No matter whether they were in "Manchuria" or in North China, no matter how secretive they were, as soon as they took off, they were likely to be discovered by the intelligence personnel of the Eighth Route Army.

Then it was no longer a secret that the Imperial Army had helicopters.

Once the Eighth Route Army knows that the Imperial Army has helicopters, it will prepare in advance and lose the suddenness of the battle.

This is what Okabe Naozaburo does not want to see.

Therefore, Naozaburo Okabe classified the helicopter and related training as top secret.

Whether it is pilots, ground crew or combat personnel, they are all isolated from the outside world, even if they are training in the local area, they have found an inaccessible place.

After completing the training, the helicopters were dismantled and transported to Huaxia by sea one by one, and then transported by train to SJZ for assembly... SJZ is more than 200 kilometers east of Taiyuan, and it is a good advance base for attacking Taiyuan. A temporary command post has been set up here.

Of course, the production of helicopters and the training of personnel require a process.

This is also due to the simpler production of helicopters in this era, especially the Hans "Dragon" helicopter with a dual-rotor structure... The dual-rotor structure does not require a tail rotor, so production is much easier and requires much lower technical requirements.

Otherwise, when the devils produce enough helicopters and then smuggle them to the battlefield, I am afraid that the Eighth Route Army will develop into a different form.

What Wang Xuexin can know is the superficial deployment and actions of the devils.

"The situation of the newly added troops of the Devils has been found out!" Zhang Zongping reported with a folder: "The newly added 63rd Division of the Kwantung Army, code-named 'Zhen', was originally stationed in Shenyang (Fengtian). It is divided into three parts to be stationed outside Zijing Pass, Niangzi Pass, and Huangyu Pass. In addition, there is a 9th Kwantung Army Independent Tank Brigade, code-named 'Fen Xun', which is stationed outside Niangzi Pass!"

Wang Xuexin nodded slightly. The devils did this in the hope that the Eighth Route Army would not be able to expand the results of the battle by sealing it in Shanxi.

In addition, Naozaburo Okabe does not seem to trust the combat effectiveness of the North China Front Army, otherwise all tasks would not be carried out by the Kwantung Army.

"Also!" Zhang Zongping added: "The devils once again launched a large-scale raid on our bases outside Shanxi. This raid is different from the previous raids. The devils mainly search for supplies!"

This was expected by Wang Xuexin. In history, Naozaburo Okabe did nothing after he took office as the commander of the North China Front Army, except to search for supplies.

In the words of Okabe, it is: "Thoroughly collect China's strategic materials to support the war!".

As a result, the people's pots, door handles, door bolts, etc. were all searched by the devils.

But that was 44 years, and the devils had reached the point where they were in short supply, including iron and copper used to make rifles.

It is said that it is now 43 years and the Pacific battlefield is not so fierce. Okabe does not need to do this level, but he still does it...

In the next second, Wang Xuexin understood that although Okabe did the same thing, his purpose was different.

Historically, this was done because of the lack of resources due to the failure of the Pacific battlefield. Now, it is to prepare for the "decisive battle" with Yingjiang in China.

Wang Xuexin laughed at the thought of this, Okabe really thought too far.

A "decisive battle" with Eagle Sauce?
Let's talk about it if we can pass the hurdle of the Eighth Route Army!

"What are the devils doing?" Chen Songyong was a little confused when he heard the information: "I thought they would send a division and a tank brigade to launch a counterattack immediately! Unexpectedly, they put on a defensive posture, and the other One side sweeps again!"

Wang Xuexin analyzed: "No matter what the posture is, we will definitely counterattack in the end! The devils will not let us develop and grow in Shanxi!"

Chen Songyong nodded, this is for sure, Shanxi at this time is a thorn in the side of the devil, and it will not get rid of it!
"Head, what should we do now?" Zhang Zongping asked.

This is indeed a bit difficult to deal with. During this period of time, the Eighth Route Army has been actively preparing to deal with the devil's counterattack, but suddenly the devil did not counterattack... This made the Eighth Route Army do not know how to deal with it.

continue like this?

Seems too passive!
type out?
It's too early again!

Moreover, the devils have already made preparations outside the pass. Once the Eighth Route Army fights out, it will fall into the pocket formation it set up.

Wang Xuexin thought for a while, then turned his attention to Zhangjiakou on the map, and said: "The devils want to use the Kwantung Army to encircle and suppress our army. We can't be led by the nose like this!"

Then Wang Xuexin turned to Chen Songyong and ordered: "Send a power to the independent group and ask them how they are getting ready!"

Li Yunlong on the other side couldn't sit still for a long time. He called Ding Wei and Kong Jie together to discuss the battle plan if he had nothing to do.

Rather than discussing the battle plan, it is better to listen to Li Yunlong's complaint:
"Damn it, the battle at Yanmen Pass was well fought! Why didn't the independent group join in the fun!"

"Fuck, Taiyuan has been defeated, I don't even have a chance to drink soup!"

"What is a helicopter? I've never heard of it. This little Northeast is too eccentric!"

……

Hearing these words, Ding Wei and Kong Jie were angry and funny, secretly thinking that when your independent regiment was equipped with "Sherman" and half-track vehicles, no other troops had heard of it!Are you only allowed to have new equipment for the independent regiment?

As soon as Wang Xuexin's telegram came, Li Yunlong, who was as wilted as a frost-beaten cabbage, was fully wound up and jumped up in an instant, and replied: "Report, ready! Twelve minutes ready , just wait for the superior to give an order!"
