Chapter 472 Attacking Jinzhong County
Wang Chengzhu smiled lightly and said, "Yes, Brother Cheng, you heard me right. I'm going to fight Jinzhong County tonight. I wonder if you're interested?"

Cheng Xiazi lost his composure for an instant, and said weakly, "I'm definitely interested, but is it too risky to attack Jinzhong County?"

"After all, Jinzhong is different from Pingding and Yangquan. Not only is the south gate of Taiyuan City heavily guarded by devils, but the straight-line distance from Taiyuan City is less than 40 kilometers. will come.

The most important thing is that without our support in Yangquan County, we can no longer replicate the Battle of Yangquan and can only resort to a strong attack.

During the day today, the Devils Air Corps attacked multiple sections of the Zhengtai Railway. Even if the armored train was not destroyed, we would not be able to use it to attack Yangquan.

In this way, our storming of Jinzhong County is no longer a risk, but a delivery of food. "

Wang Chengzhu still had a faint smile on his face: "Brother Cheng, what you said above is correct. As the southern gate of Taiyuan City, Jinzhong is less than 40 kilometers away in a straight line. Not only the 9th Japanese Infantry Brigade It took less than two hours for the devils from Taiyuan City to rush over to garrison.

Moreover, we do not have an internal response, but you miscalculated one. "

Cheng Xiazi asked suspiciously, "Which one did you miscalculate?"

Wang Chengzhu: "Armored train!"

"Armored train?" Cheng Xiazi was even more puzzled: "Although the armored train was not destroyed by the Japanese army, they destroyed many sections of railroad tracks, and our Eighth Route Army has no railroad soldiers. In a short period of time, it is impossible to repair the damaged railroad tracks. We can’t let the armored trains fire at Jinzhong County from dozens of kilometers away?”

Wang Chengzhu: "Brother Cheng, it is true that our Eighth Route Army did not have railway soldiers, and that has become history, a thing of the past.

Now our Eighth Route Army already has its own railway corps. "

"The 4th Mixed Brigade of the former Imperial Association Army was not only responsible for the defense mission of the Yangquan-Zhengtai Railway from Yangquan to Niangziguan, but also shouldered the task of overhauling and maintaining this section of the railway line."

"The 4th Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Association Army?" Cheng Xiazi suddenly realized: "How did I forget this one?"

Wang Chengzhu said to Sun Yuliang who was on the side: "Old Sun, can the railway soldiers of your brigade repair the railroad tracks that the devils blew up in half a night?"

Sun Yuliang said: "The railway soldiers under me have conducted field surveys, and the track that was destroyed was about 30 meters long, while the short track was only three or four meters long.

Such a degree of damage is easy to repair, and there are existing steel rails and wooden beams in Yangquan County. "

"Our guerrillas have attacked the Zhengtai Railway more than once in the past, and some of the damage was even worse than the devil's bombing this time."

"As long as the bridges and tunnels are not blown up, even if the damage to the Zhengtai Railway is doubled, our railway soldiers can repair it before 3 am."

Wang Chengzhu: "We only need to repair the railway track from the Pingding Tunnel to the Jinzhong section."

Since the armored train was hidden in the Pingding Tunnel by the Spike, the section from the Pingding Tunnel to Niangziguan does not need to be repaired for the time being.

Sun Yuliang: "If only the Pingding Tunnel to Jinzhong section is repaired, it can be completed before two o'clock in the morning."

Wang Chengzhu: "The problem of repairing the railroad tracks will be left to you. You still have work to do at night, so go and let the brothers have a good rest."

"Yes! Guaranteed to complete the task!" Sun Yuliang saluted Wang Chengzhu, then turned and left the regiment headquarters.

Blind Cheng glanced at Sun Yuliang's leaving back, then looked away and said, "Brother Zhuzi, attacking Jinzhong County is not a trivial matter. Shall we ask the brigade for advice?"

Chen Lian and Xu Shengji also echoed: "Yes, attacking Jinzhong County is not a trivial matter, I think we should really report to the brigade and division headquarters.

Moreover, now the time is completely in time. "

Wang Chengzhu: "If it's a general operation, we should indeed ask the brigade and division headquarters for instructions, but the problem is that our attack on Jinzhong County this time is a surprise attack.

What is a surprise attack is surprise. "

After a pause, Wang Chengzhu changed the subject and continued: "I believe you should also be very clear that not only our comrades have infiltrated the enemy, but the enemy's spies have also infiltrated us."

"If we report to the brigade and division headquarters about the night's actions, and the enemy's spies happen to be informed.

Then our surprise attack will not only fail to achieve the strategic effect it deserves, but may even plunge into the ambush set by the enemy without returning. "

"So, tonight's surprise attack cannot be reported to the brigade and division headquarters in advance."

Cheng Xiazi frowned: "Having said that, Jinzhong is definitely not Pingding and Yangquan. Once attacked, the devils from Taiyuan will definitely come to reinforce at all costs.

So, is our move too risky?
If the brigade and division headquarters can allocate a little more troops to us, the chance of success will be higher. "

Wang Chengzhu: "This is exactly the reason why I invited you here. In fact, to capture Yangquan County, only our Second Independent Regiment can do it.

Therefore, the main task of your family is to defend my Second Independent Regiment and intercept the devils in Taiyuan for at least three hours. "

Cheng Xiazi thought for a while, and seemed to think that Wang Chengzhu's plan was feasible, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Actually, it doesn't matter if you play the main attack or assist in the defense. The main thing is how to divide the spoils after the event is completed?"

Wang Chengzhu: "A single flower is not spring, a hundred flowers bloom together and spring is full of gardens. Only my independent second group and a strong family can't solve any problems.

Only when my entire 129th Division, that is, the entire Eighth Route Army is strong, can it be possible to drive the powerful Japanese invaders out of the country and completely liberate the whole of China.

Therefore, after this event is completed, all the trophies will be divided into 5 shares on average, one for each of our Independent Second Regiment, New First Regiment, 772 Regiment, 771 Regiment, and 769 Regiment. "

Cheng Xiazi gave Wang Chengzhu a thumbs up: "Old Cheng sincerely admires Brother Zhuzi's ideological awareness, unlike some people.

That being the case, I, Cheng Xiazi, did it! "

After finishing speaking, Cheng Xiazi still did not forget to glance at Li Yunlong who was at the side.

Xu Shengji hesitated for a while, then nodded and said, "Count me in as well."

Chen Lian hesitated for a little longer, but thinking of Cheng Xiazi, Xu Shengji and others' admiration for Wang Chengzhu, and his own understanding of Wang Chengzhu, he knew that although the other party liked to take risks, he would never fight uncertain battles.

What's more, the taste of attacking the county town to share the spoils is really delicious.

Jinzhong County, as the southern gateway of Taiyuan City, is far more prosperous than Yangquan County, and Pingding County is simply incomparable.

The benefits they got from attacking Pingding County this time have already surprised him. How much benefit will they get from taking Jinzhong County.

Just thinking about it, Chen Lianguang couldn't help his eyes glistening, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Since Lao Cheng and Lao Xu have joined, of course I have no reason to back down."
