I am helping

Chapter 535 I, Yan Laoxi, are jealous!
Taiyuan.

First Army Command.

Communications Officer Takeo Nakamura walked quickly into the commander's office.

In the office, Moritake Tanabe and Yoshio Iwamatsu are playing chess.

Walking to the chess table, Takeo Nakamura stood at attention with a slap of his feet, then paused and said, "Report, General Okamura calls urgently!"

Moritake Tanabe and Yoshio Iwamatsu glanced at each other, Yoshio Iwamatsu waved his hand and said, "Read!"

"Hi!"

Nakamura Takeo picked up the telegram and read: "Three days later, all armies will attack Northwest Shanxi. All departments of the First Army must take precautions against the Eighth Route in Southeast Shanxi, in case the Eighth Route in Southeast Shanxi goes northward to attack Taiyuan and Yangquan. , the Great Japanese Locust Army is on board!"

As soon as Yoshio Iwamatsu waved his hand, Takeo Nakamura paused and put the telegram on the desk before turning around and leaving.

After Takeo Nakamura left, Yoshio Iwamatsu, Commander of the First Army, sighed and said:

"The fishing plan was leaked, leading to the defeat of Kuribayashi's detachment, and General Okamura didn't change the battle plan?"

Tanabe Moritake's eyes flickered slightly.

He heard some hidden meanings in Yoshio Iwamatsu's words.

The fishing plan was leaked, and the Kuribayashi detachment was defeated. If this doesn't change the battle plan, isn't General Okamura crazy?
Tanabe Shengwu said: "The general should be betting that the battle plan for sweeping Northwest Shanxi will not be leaked."

If it was him, Tanabe Moritake, he would definitely formulate the battle plan again, and only he would know it, and then he would give orders to the division commanders separately when the battle started.

Yoshio Iwamatsu said again: "General Okamura's courage is too great, so I dare to bet on it."

"So he can become the commander of the front army and be promoted to the rank of general."

Tanabe Shengwu smiled slightly and said, "And you and I are just lieutenant generals."

Although the surface is friendly, Tanabe Shengwu is also guessing, who is the spy at the top of the North China Front Army Command?

Commander Neiji Okamura still sent him to the front line to command operations this time, which shows that he still trusts him.

After a pause, Tanabe Shengwu stood up and said, "Yan Song-kun, let's continue this game of chess when I come back from Northwest Shanxi."

Neiji Okamura only gave three days to prepare. It would take at least two days for the Japanese army to go north from Taiyuan to the northwest of Shanxi, and then rest and prepare for another day, before starting the attack on the third day.

Not enough time.

Yoshio Yanmatsu also stood up immediately, and said with a smile: "Then, on behalf of the First Army, I wish Tanabe-kun a victory and cut off Li Yunlong's head."

Moritake Tanabe laughed: "Then I will borrow Yansong-kun's auspicious words."

After finishing speaking, the two bowed and saluted each other, and Tanabe Moritake turned around and walked out with his saber in his hand.

Following the order of Moritake Tanabe, the 10th Division attacking the New First Regiment, the 21st Division and the 35th Division attacking the New Second Regiment were ready to go.

Due to the strong combat effectiveness of the new regiment, after the deployment adjustment of Moritake Tanabe, the 41th Regiment of the 237st Division of the First Army was temporarily transferred to the 10th Division, under the command of the division commander Jiro Ishikawa.

原本第10师团有8个联队，战时加强了骑兵第13联队、战车第13联队和2个机枪大队。

After the wartime strengthening, there were 10 regiments plus 2 machine gun brigades, but after the Battle of Xinzhou, the 13th tank regiment had only 15 tanks left, and the 13th cavalry regiment had more than half of its casualties.

Even the 10th Infantry Regiment of the 39th Division suffered more than half of its casualties.

The fighting power of the 10th Division, which was strengthened during the war, was greatly reduced. In addition, without air support, can the 10th Division still beat the new regiment with heavy artillery and tanks?

So just to be on the safe side, Moritake Tanabe transferred a regiment from the 1st Division of the 41st Army to the 10th Division.

……

Difficult slope.

Second Theater Command.

After Chu Yunfei received the order, he led the 358th regiment through Kong Jie's defense area and came to Kenanpo to rest.

Li Yunlong made such a big commotion in Taiyuan and Northwest Shanxi, and even the 358th regiment got involved.

In the eyes of Ningji Okamura and Yoshio Iwamatsu, Chu Yunfei was nothing more than an insignificant little man, and he could defeat the 358th regiment with only one regiment of troops.

If the 358th regiment is still in Northwest Shanxi, the 358th regiment will be eliminated as soon as the Japanese soldiers arrive.

It was precisely after seeing this level that Chief Yan hurriedly transferred the 358th Regiment back to Kenanpo to prevent the ace troops of the Jinsui Army from being eliminated by the Japanese army.

Even Commander Yan has already made preparations to cross the Yellow River westward and go to Qiulin Town. If the Eighth Route Army is defeated, the Japanese army is likely to attack Luliang Mountain southward while the iron is hot.

At this time, Chu Yunfei was reporting the situation about Li Yunlong to Chief Yan:

"Li Yunlong did not go to any military academy. He came from a mud-legged background with a low level of education. He has no military education, but he has first-class tactical command capabilities and a certain strategic vision."

"It's not an exaggeration to call him a military genius."

"If Li Yunlong obtains cultural and military education, plus the weapon assistance from his channel, the achievements he will make in the future may be limitless..."

Li Yunlong in the original play is indeed what Chu Yunfei evaluated.

But in this time and space, Li Yunlong worked harder in cultural studies, and in military education, he also worked hard to learn theoretical knowledge.

The combination of theory and actual combat, coupled with the soldiers' brave fighting will, unparalleled organization, first-class soldiers and first-class equipment, can achieve today's record.

However, the number of times Chu Yunfei and Li Yunlong met is not too many, so Chu Yunfei's impression of Li Yunlong is still the first meeting.

Of course, when the two met, Li Yunlong would not show off his knowledge of culture and military theory.

Although in terms of culture, Li Yunlong started later than Chu Yunfei, but Li Yunlong has already left the scope of illiteracy, and his military tactical command ability is far superior to Chu Yunfei.

Chief Yan narrowed his eyes: "So, this guy is really a genius."

After a pause, Officer Yan asked again: "Yunfei, how much do you know about Li Yunlong's aid channel?"

Chu Yunfei thought for a while, and said: "Sir, I don't know much about Li Yunlong's aid channel. I only know that it seems to be a mysterious person surnamed Chen who has been providing equipment to Li Yunlong, and the mysterious person recently, The firepower of Li Yun's aid equipment has become stronger and stronger, and even 150mm howitzers have appeared, and the number is about one howitzer regiment."

Mentioning the 150mm howitzer, Yan Zhangguan's eyes revealed a touch of heat, but it was quickly hidden.

In the 150mm howitzer regiment, even Lao Jiang had only two, and Yan Laoxi had none.

In fact, Yan Laoxi's real intention to buy Li Yunlong all the time was to get the aid channel behind Li Yunlong.

As long as Li Yunlong can join the Jinsui Army, all machine guns, 75mm mountain guns, 105mm howitzers, and 150mm howitzers belong to Yan Xishan.

Chief Yan had already received information that the Eighth Route Army's arsenal in Southeast Shanxi had almost caught up with the size of his original Taiyuan arsenal.

As for those production lines, according to intelligence sources, they also come from Li Yunlong's aid channel, and the quality is comparable to the production lines of foreign arsenal factories.

At this moment, Deputy Commander Yang Xingru hurried in with several telegrams in hand, saluted Yan Laoxi, and said, "Report to Commander, we have found out about the Battle of Xinzhou."

Although Yan Laoxi received information that a large number of Japanese troops were defeated by the Xinyi Regiment in Xinzhou two or three days ago.

However, the information is relatively vague, and it is not clear about the course of the battle, how many troops the two sides lost, and so on.

Although the Jinsui Army did not fight very well, after all, it has been operating in Shanxi for decades, and its intelligence methods are not bad. It took more than two days for various intelligence agencies to finally figure out the whole story of the Xinzhou Campaign.

"Say it quickly." Chief Yan looked at Yang Xingru.

Deputy Commander Yang Xingru took a look at Chu Yunfei, and then told the story of the Battle of Xinzhou.

"What did you say, Li Yunlong dispatched a heavy artillery regiment and a tank regiment?"

Hearing this, Yan Laoxi took a deep breath suddenly, his expression was so shocked that it was hard to add.

Chu Yunfei on the side couldn't help being stunned, his pupils shrank suddenly, and then he was full of envy, even jealousy.

1 heavy artillery regiment plus 1 tank regiment... Brother Yunlong, brother Yunlong, you boy is so rich.

Since you are so rich, why bother to hold my more than 240 mule carts and refuse to return them?
"That's right!"

Yang Xingru nodded, his expression was also a little shocked, but not as exaggerated as Yan Laoxi and Chu Yunfei, because he knew 10 minutes before the two.

He continued: "According to intelligence, most of the tanks dispatched by the Xinyi Regiment this time were heavy tanks, and a small part were medium tanks. The infantry cooperated with the tanks in a single attack and defeated the 10th Brigade of the 8th Division of the Japanese Army. The 39th Regiment then severely damaged the 13th Regiment of Japanese Tanks, if not for the timely artillery support from the Japanese Artillery Regiment, the 13th Regiment of Tanks would have been completely wiped out.”

Hearing this, Yan Laoxi's eyeballs almost fell out.

Heavy and medium tanks?
Even the little devil is equipped with medium and light tanks, which are not at the same level as medium and heavy tanks.

Yan Laoxi and Chu Yunfei realized instantly that these heavy tanks and medium tanks must have come from Li Yunlong's aid channel.

Yan Laoxi became more jealous, and Chu Yunfei became more envious.

Yang Xingru said again: "In addition, the planes used by the Japanese North China Front Army to sweep up the Eighth Route Army in Northwest Shanxi this time were wiped out."

"How could the whole army be wiped out?"

Yan Laoxi was taken aback, and asked: "Li Yunlong bombarded the Japanese airport again? Didn't you receive any information?"

So far, the Xinyi Regiment has bombarded the Japanese airport twice, and both were Xincheng Airport in the northern suburbs of Taiyuan.

Taiyuan is Yan Laoxi's lair, he has deployed a lot of intelligence personnel there, and he is the first to know if there is any trouble in Taiyuan.

"No!" Yang Xingru said, "According to intelligence, dozens of fighter jets suddenly appeared and shot down the Japanese planes. These fighter jets even chased to the airport and bombed all the Japanese airports in North China."

Dozens of fighters!

Hearing this, Yan Laoxi was completely stunned, and the sourness in his face and eyes was already undisguised.

I, Yan Laoxi, are jealous!
Chu Yunfei's expression was fine, because he had personally seen Li Yunlong call in dozens of planes and kill a Japanese infantry regiment.

But in his heart, he was extremely envious. Xinyituan was covered by planes, tanks and heavy artillery whenever he moved. Brother Yunlong was so rich.
