In fact, it is not accurate to say that the devils have only 9 troops in Fengtian, because there are about 3 "Puppet Manchurian Army" stationed near Fengtian.

(Note: At this time, the total strength of the "Puppet Manchukuo Army" was about 15.)
Okabe Naozaburo complained about this transfer of troops. He sent a telegram to Umezu Yoshijiro, saying: "Your Excellency, the Eighth Route Army is on the offensive in North China and Fengtian. Danger!"

Umezu Yoshijiro dismissed this: "Fengtian still has 12 troops. In addition, our army can deploy troops for reinforcements on both sides. Even if the Eighth Route Army has three heads and six arms, it would not dare to take Fengtian's idea!"

From Meizu Meijiro's point of view, worrying about the Eighth Route Army's attack on Fengtian is completely unfounded. Whether the Eighth Route Army can gather [-] troops is a question.
Besides, no matter how strong the Eighth Route Army is, it can't be stronger than Mao Xiong's million-dollar Far East Army. How could he ignore the million-dollar army here and worry about the Eighth Route Army behind?

Umezu Yoshijiro left the three divisions in Fengtian, which is already a great deal of face to the Eighth Route Army.

But Naozaburo Okabe didn't think so.

In the eyes of Naozaburo Okabe, Fengtian's garrison is not 9 imperial troops plus 3 puppet Manchukuo troops, but 9 minus 3...The [-] puppet Manchukuo troops may defect at any time and become the Eighth Route Army A member, and will cooperate with the Eighth Route Army to fight from the inside.

If possible, Naozaburo Okabe would rather not have the [-] puppet Manchukuo army.

However, the development of the war to the present is not necessary.

Because the imperial army has always used the security and security of the Puppet Manchukuo Army, once they are all transferred out of the city... Fengtian is afraid that it will be a mess in the first place.

There is really no way, Okabe Naozaburo can only retreat to the next best thing. He asked to draw elites from the puppet Manchukuo to form a force to help defend Fengtian.

Naozaburo Okabe's idea is very good, because listening to Umezu Yoshijiro's tone, it is impossible to deploy additional imperial troops to garrison Fengtian, so the only way is to deploy the Puppet Manchukuo Army.

Sure enough, Umezu Yoshijiro never took the Puppet Manchukuo Army seriously, so he nodded and agreed without thinking.

Therefore, Naozaburo Okabe formed a puppet Manchukuo elite with a force of 1.6, known as the "Iron Stone Troop" and rushed to Fengtian.

Fengtian's troop mobilization was all under Wang Xuexin's intelligence and reconnaissance, thanks to Wang Xuexin's previous infiltration in the Northeast. At this time, this spread intelligence network has already played a role in continuously providing information to the Eighth Route Army.

On the other hand, with the upgrading of the Eighth Route Army's computers, more and more devils' telegrams were deciphered, so the information they had was not only large but comprehensive.

For example, regarding the "Iron Stone Force", Wang Xuexin basically understood its structure and composition when it was still being formed.

The information was sent by Zhang Zongping, because both the intelligence work and the deciphering work are directed by the headquarters.

"Iron Stone Troops are mainly divided into two parts!" Zhang Zongping reported: "Iron Heart Troops and Iron Blood Troops, each with a brigade size of 8000 people, and there are even tank troops and armored troops among them!"

"There are chariots and armor?" Wang Xuexin was quite surprised when he heard this.

Usually the puppet army does not have very good equipment, the reason is that the puppet army is easy to rebel, and the devils are not at ease with them, so it is good to have some old-fashioned infantry to deal with the guerrillas and ordinary people. If they want to go to the battlefield, they will be cannon fodder, of course not well equipped.

But this iron and stone unit actually has tanks and armored vehicles... From this, it can be seen that this puppet army is indeed somewhat different.

"Yes!" Zhang Zongping replied: "I don't know the exact number of tanks and armored vehicles, but the tank personnel are ready. It is said that this force was the main force of our army's anti-union forces before!"

Wang Xuexin said "oh", no wonder he won the trust of the devils. This is because he has done a lot of bad things and he has developed a certain fighting quality when encircling and suppressing the Anti-Union troops.

In fact, if Wang Xuexin has checked the information of the "Iron Stone Army" in modern times, he would know that this is a puppet army known as "the most hard-working puppet army under the sun". They fought until the devils surrendered before they surrendered to the stubborn army.

And one of the reasons why the Iron Stone Army is so desperate is that all the supplies and equipment of this army are based on the devil's regular army, or even better than the devil's regular army.

This is a way for the devils to win people's hearts. They are telling other puppet troops: As long as you are good enough and loyal enough, you can receive equal treatment from the imperial army like the iron and stone troops.

Wang Xuexin immediately became interested in this army. He asked, "Where is this army deployed?"

"It's not clear yet!" Zhang Zongping replied: "I only know that they are temporarily training in Fengtian. The information we got is that they have an infantry brigade, a cavalry brigade, a tank battalion, a supply battalion, and a communication battalion. There is a Bangzi Japanese Independence Camp!"

Wang Xuexin nodded and said, "I believe this army will be dispatched to Chifeng soon!"

Zhang Zongping asked suspiciously: "How can the leader be so sure?"

No wonder Zhang Zongping felt strange. It would be reasonable to guess what the enemy is going to do through reasoning in terms of strategy and tactics, but if it is inferred which troops the enemy will send to the front... This cannot be called an inference, but a prophecy up!
Wang Xuexin didn't answer the question instead: "The devils built this army to make them a role model for the puppet army, and to win the hearts of other puppet troops while fighting, don't you think?"

"Yes!" Zhang Zongping nodded.

Wang Xuexin asked again: "We don't have an offensive plan yet, and our army is still stationed on the front line of Chifeng, right?"

"Yes!" Zhang Zongping nodded again.

Then Zhang Zongping figured it out: "The head of the regiment means that only by sending this 'iron and stone troop' to the front line to fight can they become a role model for the puppet army? So... the devils will definitely send this troop first. Did they make meritorious deeds?"

Wang Xuexin nodded.

The more Zhang Zongping thought about it, the more he felt it made sense, and even he believed that this "iron and stone army" would come up soon.

Then Zhang Zongping asked strangely: "Regimental Commander, why are you interested in this puppet army!"

Wang Xuexin smiled and replied: "I'm not interested in this puppet army, but... If the devil wants to use this army as an example, then we should also use this army as an example!"

Zhang Zongping was taken aback for a moment, but soon understood.

Although they are both role models, the treatment of these two role models is not the same...
