Bright Sword's Bloody War of Resistance

Chapter 246 A Whole 110 Regiments
In the war room of the headquarters, everyone is discussing enthusiastically.

"Usually, the number of people reported and the weapons and equipment are reported one by one, but now they have shown their wealth, and there are so many more guns at once!" said a staff officer at the headquarters.

"Yeah, some troops seem to have popped up out of nowhere, and the military districts below don't even know about it!"

"Hey, this is also related to the scattered development of our Eighth Route Army. The main force is okay, but some basic troops have lost contact with the main forces of the military regions due to the situation. In addition, our Eighth Route Army has developed too fast behind enemy lines in recent years!" Deputy Chief of Staff Long said.

"According to the current situation, there are a total of 110 regiments in the participating troops. It is not an exaggeration to call this battle a battle of hundreds of regiments!" The boss said with a smile.

"But now that our Eighth Route Army has demonstrated its strength, the Japanese army will not say much. I'm afraid Jiang from Shancheng and Yan Laoxi from Kenanpo will be in trouble! The deputy chief of staff said quite worriedly.

"Without this battle, would the National Army and the Jinsui Army have no idea about our Eighth Route Army? If you want me to say that it is good to show off your muscles properly, at least it will make them avoid the mouse!" said the boss.

"Didn't they always say that our Eighth Route Army swims without fighting? The Hundred Regiments War is the best proof! I want to see how the newspapers in Shancheng promote it?"

While the people in the room were talking, the chief of the telecommunications department at the headquarters walked in.

"Boss, chief of staff, Zhou Weihan's independent detachment sent a telegram!" The telecommunications section chief obviously knew the content in advance, with an uncontrollable smile on his face.

"Oh! It's finally here!" The deputy chief of staff took the telegram and glanced at it quickly.

"Zhou Weihan really made a lot of noise!" Then he raised his head and said to the crowd.

"The independent detachment pulled out 26 large and small strongholds on the Handan-Cixian section of the Ping-Han Railway, as well as Fengle Station, an important material transfer station for the Japanese army, and the Zhanghe Bridge! Tainan soldiers and civilians worked together to destroy more than 150 miles of railways, and killed more than 500 Japanese soldiers in total. , more than 1200 puppet troops!"

"Then wiped out more than 300 cavalrymen and 800 infantrymen who set off from the execution platform, and captured 6 Type [-] field guns!" The deputy chief of staff said out the important content.

"Heh, Zhou Weihan has made a lot of money. With the current number of artillery in the independent detachment, it is completely possible to form an artillery regiment, which is richer than the headquarters!" The boss laughed so hard that he couldn't close his mouth.

"There's more, I'll continue!" The deputy chief of staff waved his hand, signaling not to interrupt him.

"Li Yunlong's Xinyi Regiment and Ding Wei's 28th Regiment pulled out 13 strongholds in the Shexian-Lucheng section of the Hanchang Highway. The Xinyi Regiment ambushed the Japanese army transport convoy to Changzhi, killed 281 Japanese soldiers, and seized a large amount of ammunition and shells! "

"The Japanese army in Changzhi sent troops to encircle and suppress. The Fourth Regiment of the Independent Detachment took the opportunity to raid Changzhi Guancun Airport, destroyed two Type [-] reconnaissance planes, six Type [-] bombers in the airport, and wiped out more than [-] people in the airport guard team! Four anti-aircraft machine guns were seized! "

"After the fourth regiment succeeded, they rushed all the way and wiped out the enemies of Changzhi with the superior force of the three regiments. They killed more than 800 Japanese soldiers and captured more than [-] puppet troops!"

"No more?" The boss asked incredulously.

"No, isn't that enough? The record of the independent detachment in Tainan this night can be described as brilliant!" the deputy chief of staff asked back.

"According to the current record of the independent detachment, the Japanese army near Xingtai and Handan may have to rely on the city to hold on. I'm looking forward to Zhou Weihan's next big move!"

"All the units of our Eighth Route Army participating in the war secretly jumped to the outside line in advance to destroy the Japanese army's transportation line. The combat effectiveness of the independent detachment is also ranked first in our Eighth Route Army. I am not surprised to have such a record!" The boss said.

"Zhou Weihan's command is also very appropriate. All the commanders and fighters are not afraid of difficulties and hardships. The telegram mentioned that the second regiment and the fourth regiment have carried out a rapid march of more than a hundred miles. It is quite like our Red Army back then!" Zan, the deputy chief of staff Can't stop talking.

"Fourth Regiment? The Fourth Regiment adapted from the prisoners in the Japanese POW camp?"

"That's right, the fourth regiment of the independent detachment has a very complicated composition. There are Central Army, Jinsui Army, Sichuan Army, and some soldiers are from the 115th Division!"

"The head of the group, Wang Yigong, graduated from Whampoa, and the political commissar, Gao Zhiheng, was from the teaching team of the 115th Division!"

Cadres, large and small, within the Eighth Route Army are all registered at the political offices at all levels, and the political department at the regiment level conducts detailed investigations of their origins and experiences.

"The independent detachment's Sanzheng has done a good job, abruptly turning a newly formed fourth regiment into a main force with strong thinking and capable of fighting tough battles!"

"Chief of Staff, you have to remind me that after the battle, the Independent Fourth Regiment can be used as a benchmark, and it deserves to be promoted!" The boss finally said.

"To be honest, the results so far have exceeded my expectations, and I can send a report to Yanzhou. The chairman and the others are waiting for our good news, and they probably can't sleep all night!" said the boss.

The Telecommunications Section Chief, who had been listening, nodded in response.

"Boss, is it possible to start the next plan?"

"Before the main division of the Japanese army in southern Shanxi sends reinforcements, the main force of our army can go back and clear the Japanese strongholds in and around the base area, expand the depth of the base area, and consume the vital strength of the Japanese army!" The boss nodded and said yes.

The independent detachment headquarters here.

After sending the telegram to the headquarters, the three of Zhou Weihan were also discussing the next step.

"We have been busy all night. The Japanese army is fighting fires all night. What do you think the Japanese army will do during the day?" Zhou Weihan raised the topic.

"In my opinion, only in the Tainan area, the Japanese troops in various counties have been terrified all night, and they will shrink their troops to the counties and various large strongholds as soon as dawn!"

"At the same time, the Japanese army will send planes to conduct detailed investigations on the situation of each transportation line," Xing Zhiguo analyzed.

"That's a good thing, the Japanese army voluntarily gave up their stronghold, and we can take advantage of the situation!" Zhao Gang said.

"Actually, I'm more inclined to use up the Japanese army's strongholds directly. If there are no strongholds, we can see each other again. If a person dies, he is really dead!" Zhou Weihan said.

"Then we'd better lay an ambush before the Japanese army shrinks its forces, but now we dare not waste time!" Zhao Gang said with a frown.

"Old Zhao, don't worry, firstly the soldiers need to rest and recuperate, and secondly, the forces of the little devils are too scattered, it would be troublesome to deal with them one by one! I have a way to actively gather them together!" Zhou Weihan said with a smile, deliberately showing off .

"Look at you! Those who don't know think you are Yoshio Shinozuka! The little devil has been acting like a turtle all night, can he listen to you like that?" Zhao Gang had a look of disbelief.

Xing Zhiguo smiled at the side, vaguely guessing Zhou Weihan's thoughts.

"Old Zhao, don't you believe it. There are different types of people, and there are priorities!"

"Look at this," Zhou Weihan said, pointing his finger at a point on the map.

"You are crazy. This is an important town heavily garrisoned by the Japanese army. If it is moved, the Japanese troops in southern Shanxi and central Hebei will be moved by it. Will our independent detachment still have a good life?" Zhao Gang said in shock.
