Bright Sword: Develop alone, bring back an artillery regiment

Neiji Okamura asked a little emotionally: "Mr. Shinozuka, although building a low-profile advance team will save a lot of money, but can such an advance team be up to the tasks you mentioned?"

Shinozuka Yoshio had already conceived the style of the advance team, and now he said truthfully: "As a low-profile special warfare unit, the advance team must reach the level of the Yamamoto Special Forces, easily penetrate into various bandit areas of the Eighth Route Army, and conduct ruthless operations against them. Reconnaissance in blind spots is definitely impossible."

After a pause, Yoshio Shinozuka changed the subject and continued, "However, we can make up for it in other ways."

"For example, we can equip the advance team with translators, and then let them wear Eighth Route Army uniforms or casual clothes, so that they can be disguised as the Eighth Route Army or guerrillas.

In this way, the advancing team can freely shuttle between various bandit areas, and the whereabouts of the Eighth Route Army will be invisible! "

"When necessary, the advance team can even use the name of the Eighth Route Army to carry out some atrocities against Chinese civilians to vilify the Eighth Route Army.

In this way, not only can the prestige of the Eighth Route Army be lowered, but it can even arouse the hatred of Chinese civilians, which can be said to serve multiple purposes. "

The interest on Neiji Okamura's face became more and more intense. This is a new way of thinking. It can be seen that Yoshio Shinozuka's No. A battle plan is indeed not as simple as a simple encirclement and raid with heavy troops, there is still something.

Shinozuka Yoshio was overjoyed when he saw this, and immediately continued to fight while the iron was hot: "As long as you give me the strength of another division, I can severely damage the Eighth Route Army in the Taihang bandit area, or even wipe it out!"

Neiji Okamura did not promise Yoshio Shinozuka immediately, but patted the proposal on the desk in front of him, and said: "Mr. Shinozuka, it's getting late today, you go back to the hotel to rest, we will meet again tomorrow." talk."

After a pause, Neiji Okamura went on to say: "I will carefully read your plan for this No. A battle plan!"

"Hi!" Hearing these words, Okamura Neiji finally took a reassurance. He knew that Commander Okamura Neiji would definitely want to read his proposal first, and then give him a reply. Right, nod respectfully...

Time flies, and half a month passes in a blink of an eye.

After reading Yoshio Shinozuka's proposal, Neiji Okamura readily accepted his No. A battle plan and promised to send him two additional divisions.

After Yoshio Shinozuka returned to Taiyuan, he immediately set up a number of low-profile advance teams based on the Yamamoto Special Forces as a model.

During this period, Yoshio Shinozuka never received any news from the Yamamoto Secret Service. At first he thought it was Kazuki Yamamoto who temporarily shut down the radio station in order to complete the mission. After all, Kazuki Yamamoto had done such a thing more than once.

But Yoshio Shinozuka realized something was wrong after being unable to contact the Yamamoto Special Team for half a month.

However, Yoshio Ushiozuka didn't care much about it at this time.

Although there is a special team of Yamamoto, the training speed of the advancing team can be greatly improved, and, during the sweeping period, it can also focus on raiding the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army at all levels.

But even without the Yamamoto special team, it will not affect the progress of the No. A battle plan. …

……

The screen zooms to Majiapo.

In the past half a month, the arsenal of the Second Independent Regiment has produced more than 2000 M1 Garand semi-automatic rifles and equipped them to each battalion.

With the upgrading of this batch of equipment, the combat effectiveness of the Second Independent Regiment will definitely increase by more than one level.

In addition, 5000 boxes of penicillin have also been produced, and clinical trials have been conducted, and the effect is surprisingly good.

In this way, the non-combat casualties of the Eighth Route Army will be greatly reduced in the future.

At the same time, Zhang Riming and Yan Zhirou also returned to the Headquarters of the WWII Zone.

According to Wang Chengzhu's request, Yan Zhirou first reported the achievements of the Eighth Route Army, especially the Second Independent Regiment.

Then, it reported in detail the difficult conditions of the Eighth Route Army, lack of food, lack of warm clothes and so on.

With the publication of the newspaper, the prestige of the Eighth Route Army was once again enhanced, and countless patriots were moved to raise money and donate to the Eighth Route Army.

In addition, the news that the Eighth Route Army was severely injured in the Hundred Regiments Campaign also spread like wildfire...

Taiyuan.

Japanese First Army Command.

After receiving the information, the new head of the Intelligence Section, Ikeda Sakuo, immediately reported it to Shinozuka Yoshio.

Shinozuka Yoshio showed a suspicious expression on his face, and asked, "Ikeda-kun, is the information reliable?"

Sakuo Ikeda: "Information should be reliable."

"Should it be reliable?" Shinozuka Yoshio asked back, with a hint of displeasure on his face.

"Hi Yi!" Ikeda Zuofu paused abruptly, and said, "This information was learned by Yan Zhirou, the daughter of Yan Laoxi, during an interview with the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army. Moreover, Yan Zhirou did not know the information after learning the news. No publicity was made, and even concealment was carried out.

It was reported by the intelligence personnel of the imperial army lurking in Yan Zhirou's guard platoon, so it should be true. "

Chief of Staff Jun Miyano followed suit and said: "Your Excellency, it seems that this information should be true. Although the fighting power displayed by the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army in the Hundred Regiments Battle is extremely terrifying, it is impossible to compete with the imperial army.

How could the imperial army have suffered no casualties when so many pieces of jade had been shattered? "

After a pause, Jun Miyano changed the subject and continued, "It's normal for them to suffer casualties. On the contrary, if they don't suffer major casualties, it would be unreasonable."

Shinozuka Yoshio raised the corner of his mouth slightly, showing a cruel fox-like smile, and said, "Yo Xi! The 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army suffered more than 60% casualties in the Hundred Regiments War. It is impossible to recover in a short period of time. This is really a disaster." Great opportunity to mop up!"

Jun Miyano: "Yes, your Excellency Commander, your No. A battle plan will definitely be successfully implemented, as long as the 4th Division of the Imperial Army arrives in Taiyuan from the northeast, then we can sweep the Eighth Route Army's Taihang bandit area. "

"Also, the advancing team is almost done training. It's time to send them to the Taihang bandit area to take the lead and collect intelligence for the imperial army."

Yoshio Shinozuka nodded and said, "Miyano-kun, I will leave this matter to you."

"Hi Yi!"

Miyano-kun nodded heavily, then turned and left to go to the team's training camp.

……

It is worth mentioning that not only the Japanese army, but also the chairman of the committee who was far away in the mountain city also received news that the various units of the Eighth Route Army had been severely damaged in the Hundred Regiments War.

Although it was also China's national defense that was damaged, the Chairman felt a little relieved.

Because the speed of development shown by the Eighth Route Army is really appalling, and the chairman has already felt a great crisis.

Now, with the Eighth Route Army being severely injured, his sense of crisis has finally weakened a lot.

Wang Chengzhu never imagined in his dreams that he set up the Zhanhuju Bureau. He originally wanted to fool the devils, but he had no intention of fooling even the chairman of the committee.

Needless to say, this was a pleasant surprise.
