I am helping

Chapter 205 Thank you Brigadier!

In the Japanese First Army Command.

Intelligence staff officer An Teng Takeo rushed in, nodded to Shinozuka Yoshio and said, "Report to the general, it has been found out that the 129th Division is attacking Liao County and the eighth route of Yushe!"

Shinozuka Yoshio narrowed his eyes and asked, "Which two units of the 129th Division?"

"Still under investigation for the time being." An Teng Wunan said awkwardly, "However, only the 129th and 385th Brigades of the 386th Division of the Eighth Route have the ability to attack key points."

At present, there are about 129 regiments exposed in the 30th Division. Of course, the strongest combat effectiveness is the main regiment under the jurisdiction of the 385th and 386th Brigades.

Among them, the 386th Brigade has the strongest combat effectiveness, because the several regiments of the 386th Brigade have a total of 50 mountain artillery pieces.

However, the devils did not get the information that the Eighth Route Army had recently added a mountain artillery brigade.

I thought that the mountain artillery of the Eighth Route Army could add up to one artillery regiment at most.

In fact, Anteng Wunan did not have 129% information to confirm that the [-]th Division attacked the two counties of Yushe and Liao County.

He only made a judgment based on the main force of the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army in southeast Shanxi, so he didn't know the specific numbers of the Eighth Route Army that attacked these two counties.

"Ando-kun!" Shinozuka Yoshio said coldly, "The work efficiency of your intelligence department is really getting worse and worse. Immediately find out the numbers of the Eight Routes attacking the two counties of Yushe and Liao County!"

"Hi!" Taking a peek at the commander's face, Takeo An Teng almost peed in fright, he quickly bowed his head and walked out quickly.

Chief of Staff Nanshan Hideyoshi said in a condensed voice: "Your Excellency, the top priority now is to relieve the siege of Yushe and Liaoxian County. The 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army has obtained the ammunition warehouses hoarded in Yangquan and Shouyang. In addition, the Eighth Route Army still has a lot of 75mm mountain field Cannon, the defenders may not last long!"

Shinozuka Yoshio then asked, "What good plan does Mr. Nanshan have?"

This time the 129th Division's attack on the Zhengtai Railway suffered the most losses from the Japanese 4th Brigade.

Almost all the Japanese troops in the large, medium and small strongholds of the Zhengtai Railway were wiped out.

It is roughly estimated that the 8000-strong force of the Fourth Brigade has already killed 6000 people.

1000 people were transferred to the Central China battlefield, and another 1000 people were transferred to the two counties of Yushe and Liao County.

If so many troops are concentrated, the entire 129th Division and the militia in the base area may not be able to eat it together.

However, Jun Tada's cage tactics dispersed the devils, giving the Eighth Route Army a chance to defeat them one by one.

Nanshan Hideyoshi said: "For the current plan, we can only send troops from Yangquan direction to help Liao County and Yushe!"

"As long as the defenders in Yushe and Liao County can hold out for at least two days."

"At this time, the Eighth Route Army is already a tired army. When the reinforcements arrive, the siege of Yushe and Liao County will be relieved!"

Shinozuka Yoshio nodded, and said worriedly: "In this case, the strength of the reinforcements should be at least 3000 people. If there are too few troops, I'm afraid they won't be able to come back."

"If you only send 1000 people to the imperial army, I'm afraid even Li Yunlong's regiment won't be able to deal with it."

When Li Yunlong was mentioned, Yoshio Shinozuka had another severe headache.

In the headquarters of the [-]th Brigade in Yangquan, there is a tank squadron, an artillery brigade, and two elite infantry brigades.

The headquarters of the Fourth Brigade not only failed to defeat Li Yunlong, but also took in more than 2000 Japanese troops and Yangquan City.

Throughout the Zhengtai Campaign, his Shanxi First Army killed more than 3000 people, and at least [-] people died at the hands of Li Yunlong among the Japanese warriors who died in battle.

Moreover, if Li Yunlong hadn't blocked the headquarters of the [-]th Brigade at Lion Mountain, and the [-]th Brigade and the [-]th Brigade had attacked from east to west, they would have been able to drive the Eighth Road from the Zhengtai Railway early, and now almost the entire Zhengtai Railway has been completely destroyed. It will take at least a year to destroy and restore traffic.

It is Li Yunlong who deserves a thousand knives. One day, I will chop off your head and make a specimen and put it on the desk.

"Immediately send electricity to Lieutenant General Hirata Kenkichi and order him to send a unit to the Yuliao area to assist the Banjin Brigade and the Honda Brigade!"

Taking a deep breath, suppressing the killing intent towards Li Yunlong in his heart, Shinozuka Yoshio said.

"At the same time, the telegram ordered the troops stationed in Wuxiang, Qinxian, Taigu and other places to rush to the aid of Yushe and Liaoxian counties."

"Admonish all the troops rushing to the rescue to be careful, so as not to fall into the plan of the Eighth Route to encircle the rescue."

"Hi!" Kusuyama Hideyoshi quickly drew up several telegrams, and then handed them to the adjutant, who took them to the communication room and handed them to Toshimatsu Kasai, who then sent the telegrams to Yangquan.

……

Because many bridges on the Nantongpu Railway were blown up by guerrillas.

After receiving the transfer order from Yoshio Shinozuka, Lieutenant General Kenkichi Hirata led the 37th Division from southern Shanxi to march all the way in a hurry, and it took a full 4 days to arrive at the Zhengtai Railway.

However, at this time, the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army had reached the strategic goal of destroying the Zhengtai Railway, and withdrew from the Zhengtai Railway one step ahead of schedule.

The 37th Division of the Japanese Army immediately stationed in Shouyang, Yangquan and Niangziguan.

The 120th Division of the Eighth Route Army launched the Tongpu Railway, and after the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region launched the Lailing Battle, a regiment was dispatched to rush to help.

The 37th Division of the Japanese Army was formed after the "July 1939th Incident". Due to the continuous expansion of the front from North China, Central China to South China, the war fell into a quagmire. One of the three newly established security divisions established on February 14, 2 (Showa 7) for the purpose of maintaining law and order and security in the occupied areas.

Under its jurisdiction are 3 infantry regiments, 1 mountain artillery regiment, 1 engineering regiment, and 1 supply regiment.

In addition, there are communication teams, field hospitals, epidemic prevention troops, sick horse farms and other units.

In Yangquan, the headquarters of the 37th Division of the Japanese Army.

"Reporting to Your Excellency, Commander, General Shinozuka sent an urgent message that the Eighth Route Army is gathering its main force to attack the two counties of Yushe and Liao County. The Xiang, Qinxian and Taigu imperial armies will also send troops to support them."

"General Shinozuka instructed that the rescue troops should be careful about the strategy of encircling the eight routes."

The communications team leader, Major Kenjiro Maruda, walked in and reported to Lieutenant General Hirata Kenkichi with a telegram.

Hirata Kenkichi had the inherent expression of a Japanese officer, cold and determined. After hearing the sound, he walked quickly to the map and looked up at the accurate map on the wall.

Find the location of Yushe county seat and Liao county seat on the map.

"Order, the 225th Infantry Regiment must assemble immediately, and immediately march south along the road to aid Yushe and Liao County!"

"Tell Master Zhenmu Wuzhi, be careful to fight for aid!"

Although Hirata Kenkichi felt that there was no need for this, Commander Shinozuka Yoshio specifically asked, so he could only remind him again.

Hehe... It's just a mere Tuba Road. He thinks that a single team can break through the Tuba Road's base.

Kenkichi Hirata is confident.

The combat power of the Fourth Brigade and the Ninth Brigade is really too hot, and the Zhengtai Railway was destroyed like this by a group of Tuba Road.

Hirata Kenkichi has been fighting against the Central Army of the National Army in southern Shanxi for the past few years, and he didn't pay attention to the Eight Route Army at all.

The 20 Central Army was surrounded by three divisions and could not move at Zhongtiao Mountain. It was believed that the Eighth Route Army was as vulnerable as the Central Army.

"Kai!" Kenjiro Maruda suddenly nodded, and walked out quickly.

Less than half an hour after Hirata Kenkichi's order was issued, the 225th Regiment of the Japanese Army, led by Chief Takeji Zhenme, drove out of Yangquan in a mighty manner, and rushed south along the highway towards Yushe and Liao County.

Not long after the devil's reinforcements were dispatched, the Eighth Route Army headquarters received information about the devil's dispatch of reinforcements.

Then the headquarters sent this information to the 385th and 386th brigades as soon as possible.

At the headquarters of the 386th Brigade, the forward command post, the brigade commander held the telegram and said: "The reinforcements of the devils have been dispatched from Yangquan, and the strength is enough for an infantry regiment. The headquarters instructed us to speed up the end of the Yuliao battle."

Under normal circumstances, the Eighth Route Army would not choose to fight head-on with troops above the Japanese brigade, and it would basically be an ambush if it wanted to fight.

The combat effectiveness of a regiment of the Japanese army can easily defeat a division of the national army head-on.

For the Eighth Route Army, lack of ammunition and firepower greatly limited its combat effectiveness, so the headquarters was not willing to fight head-on with a Japanese regiment.

"An alliance?"

"The devil is here to bring us food. If we don't eat the fat that reaches our mouths, I'm sorry for the devil's kindness, Brigadier Commander."

"Let us Xinyuan eat this piece of fat."

Hearing that the devils had come to a regiment, Li Yunlong's eyes lit up slightly, and he said hastily.

Chief of Staff Zhou and Deputy Brigadier Han couldn't help twitching their mouths. The devil dispatched a whole regiment, and others were afraid to avoid it, but this guy regarded the devil as a piece of fat on his lips.

Who the hell is this?

The brigade commander raised his brows and asked, "That's an established Japanese army regiment with at least 3000 people. Can you do it as a regiment?"

Li Yunlong's tone is confident:
"If the brigade commander lends me all your mountain cannons, I won't dare to guarantee that this group of devils will be wiped out."

"But if the devils number one or two thousand are killed, then Lao Li is still sure."

"Speaking far away, back then in Cangyun Ridge, our Xinyi Regiment defeated the Sakata Alliance head-on and killed the leader of the Sakata Alliance."

"Recently, last month in Yangquan, our new regiment wiped out more than 2000 people in the headquarters of the Fourth Brigade and killed the commander of the Fourth Brigade."

"The train is not pushed, and the cowhide is not boasted. These are all real achievements."

"Brigade Commander, please think carefully about it."

The brigade commander stared at Li Yunlong with thoughtful eyes, then his eyes sank to the map on the table of the Eight Immortals.

Troops from the 129th Division are attacking the northern section of the Baijin Railway. The devils from Yangquan will definitely not go south along the railway line.

Then we will definitely go south along the Pingding, Xiyang, and Heshun roads to help.

Seeing that the brigade commander hesitated, Li Yunlong said again: "Brigade commander, as long as the Xinyi regiment can do this, I can get at least 15 tons of medical aid."

"15 tons of medicine, are you sure?"

The brigade commander suddenly raised his head and looked at Li Yunlong, breathing a little short of breath.

"Brigade Commander, I'm sure!"

"I don't joke about things like that."

Li Yunlong looked determined.

The brigade commander narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes were firm, and his tone was firm: "Since you are so sure, then I will report to the headquarters and ask the headquarters to set up a play for you, but you must promise me that you will sing this play well." Already!"

Li Yunlong smiled and said: "Thank you, Brigadier! Thank you, Brigadier! I will kneel down for you, Brigadier! I promise to sing the trick well. If this play is not good, I will wring my head off and use it as a chamber pot for you, Brigadier!" "

"Get out!" The brigade commander scolded with a smile, "keep your big head for yourself, I can't use a chamber pot as big as yours!"
