Bright Sword: Develop alone, bring back an artillery regiment

Chapter 429 Li Yunlong: Can't fit in the train carriage?Get on the roof!

"Get on the roof, get on the roof quickly! There are still many people on the roof!"

Hearing Li Yunlong's words, the new regiment of soldiers who hadn't boarded the train woke up like a dream, and climbed up the window of the armored train.

Coal-burning trains have this advantage.

At this time, Kong Jie also chased after him: "Lao Li, Lao Li! Can you give me the task of attacking the flat stronghold to the new second regiment, you idiot."

Li Yunlong stuck his head out of the window: "Okay, old Kong, if you are so greedy, you should quickly bring your troops to chase us!"

While speaking, the train started slowly.

"Kang Chi Kuang Chi!—"

"Woo, woo woo!—"

The train slowly accelerated, faster and faster.

Seeing Li Yunlong's unbeaten face getting more and more serious, Kong Jie really wanted to catch up and punch him hard.

The flat stronghold is a full 50 kilometers away from Niangziguan. Of course, it is fast by train, and it will take only an hour.

But if it is on foot, even if it is a quick march with light clothes, it will take at least 4 hours.

By that time, it would be dawn, and if Kong Jie really rushed there, he might not even be able to keep up with the hot shit.

At the moment, I can only give up the idea of ​​going to the flat stronghold to get a share of the pie, and honestly stay and clean the battlefield...

The screen is pulled to Taiyuan.

Japanese 1st Army Headquarters.

Shinozuka Yoshio's face no longer had the calmness of the past, replaced by a gloomy expression. He did not speak, and other devil officers, such as Chief of Staff Miyano Toshi and Yamamoto Kazuki, did not dare to speak rashly. The atmosphere was depressing and a little scary.

At this moment, Nobunaga Ono, the head of the communications section, walked in with an extremely solemn expression. He walked up to Yoshio Shinozuka, gave Yoshio Shinozuka a sharp pause, and reported: "Report to Your Excellency, Commander, Yangquan Contact has been lost! It must have been breached by the Eighth Route Army of China!"

Yoshio Shinozuka seemed to have expected this result a long time ago, without any expression change on his face, but asked, "Where are the other bases?"

"Along the Zhengtai Railway, except Yangquan County, Niangziguan, and the armored train lost contact, the rest of the strongholds can be contacted normally.

Moreover, according to the reports of the imperial army in various strongholds, although the Eighth Route Army's offensive was very fierce and many troops were invested, they did not have any heavy firepower weapons in their hands, so there was no danger at present. "

Shinozuka Yoshio knew that this was only temporary, because the armored train had already fallen into the hands of the Eighth Route Army, and soon, the Eighth Route Army could use the armored train to attack the next target.

However, he didn't ask about it, but changed the subject and said, "What about the other places?"

Nobunaga Ono: "Although the Imperial Army's strongholds along the Tongpu Railway, Pinghan Railway, and Beijing-Zhangjiakou Railway were also attacked by the Eighth Route Army, the opponent's offensive was also fierce.

But the Eighth Route Army has fallen into a predicament, that is, there is no heavy firepower weapon to attack the fortified point.

Therefore, the imperial army strongholds on these routes are the same as the imperial army strongholds along the Zhengtai Railway. At present, there is no danger. "

Shinozuka Yoshio nodded, and said, "Well, call back to the bases and order them to strengthen their defenses. It is impossible to take it lightly just because the Eighth Route Army has no weapons to attack!"

"Hi Yi!"

Ono Nobunaga paused heavily, and was about to leave, but was stopped by Yoshio Shinozuka.

"Wait a moment!"

Ono Nobunaga asked for instructions: "Your Excellency Commander, do you have any other instructions?"

"You also send a telegram to the 9th Brigade of the Imperial Army stationed in Jinzhong, telling Naoko Hattori that Yangquan has fallen, and Jinzhong is the gateway to Taiyuan. The geographical location is extremely important, and it is even more related to my No. The face of the army must not be lost!"

"Hi Yi!"

Ono Nobunaga paused again, waited for a while, and after confirming that Yoshio Shinozuka had no other instructions, he turned and left.

After a while, Toshi Miyano looked at Yoshio Shinozuka, whose eyes were bloodshot, and persuaded him, "Your Excellency, Commander, you have not closed your eyes for a whole day and night, so it is impossible to continue like this.

According to the intention shown by the Zhina Tuba Road, they will definitely continue to attack the various strongholds of the imperial army in the future.

It's not a solution for you to stay up all night like this. I'll just watch here. You should go back and have a rest first.

If there is any problem that cannot be solved, I will call you again. "

Yoshio Shinozuka waved his hand: "Miyano-kun, I can hold on, but you, do you need to take a break?"

Miyano-kun: "I can persist under my job..."

……

Jinzhong County.

Headquarters of the 9th Japanese Infantry Brigade.

Along the Zhengtai Railway, the section from Shouyang to Jinzhong was guarded by the 9th Brigade. The 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army attacked not Niangziguan to Shouyang, but Niangziguan to Jinzhong.

Therefore, several large strongholds under the 9th Brigade were also attacked by the Eighth Route Army.

However, since the section from Shouyang to Jinzhong is not the attack center of the Eighth Route Army, several large strongholds under the 9th Brigade are not in any danger.

But Hattori Naotomi's life is also difficult, and I feel aggrieved.

It has always been their Japanese army chasing the Eighth Route Army to fight, when is it the turn of the Eighth Route Army to attack and ride on their heads to shit?
If Commander Shinozuka Yoshio hadn't issued repeated orders to guard several secondary strongholds and not go out, Naomin Hattori would have led his troops out of Jinzhong County long ago.

At this time, Naotomi Hattori is studying the sand table map, ready to counterattack at any time.

At this time, the head of the communications section suddenly came in from the outside in a hurry: "Your Excellency, Commander, you have just sent a telegram from Taiyuan, saying that Yangquan County has fallen, and we must defend Jin..."

Before the head of the communications section finished speaking, he was interrupted by Naotomi Hattori, "Nani? What are you talking about? You said that Yangquan County has been captured by the China Tuba Road? How is this possible?

You must know that the Imperial Army has at least 3000 garrison troops in Yangquan County, and it is only two hours since the Eighth Route Army of China launched its attack. "

Apart from shock, Naotomi Hattori was more worried.

Although the garrison force in Jinzhong County also has an infantry regiment, which has more troops than Yangquan County, the soldiers of the independent mixed 1st Brigade are all veterans who have experienced battles.

The 9th Brigade has undergone two major blood changes, and almost all the original batch of veterans have been replaced.

Although these newly added soldiers have also undergone professional training, many of them are new recruits who have never been on the battlefield. Their fighting power and fighting will are definitely not as good as the veterans who have been on the battlefield and killed people.

Therefore, the overall combat effectiveness of the 9th Brigade has actually been far inferior to that of the independent 1st Brigade since the First Battle of Huluxia.

Since the Eighth Route Army can easily capture Yangquan County, it means that they can also easily capture Jinzhong County...
