I am helping

Taiyuan.

First Army Command.

"The main force of the Eighth Route in Southeast Shanxi has gone north?"

Yoshio Iwamatsu narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard the news.

It is expected that the main force of the 129th Division 129th Route will go north, but the main force of the [-]th Division [-]th Route will really go north, which still makes Yoshio Iwamatsu unable to sit still.

Although this 129 division has only one division number.

However, according to intelligence, the main force of the Eighth Route 129th Division alone exceeds 10, and with the addition of the militia reserve force, the total strength may be close to 20.

In addition, Balu acquired a batch of military production lines and some cannons from abroad.

Judging from the battle that took place when the main force of the 129th Division went northward in the last Battle of Northwest Shanxi, the artillery firepower displayed by the 129th Division of the Eighth Route was comparable to that of the First Army.

Yoshio Iwamatsu had a headache.

Although the Japanese army's army building and military rank system copied Germany in many places, the Japanese army basically had an advantage over the Chinese army in terms of military strength and firepower.

For example, a squadron of the Japanese army corresponds to a company of the Chinese army, but in most cases, a squadron of the Japanese army can rub a company of the Chinese army on the ground.

Another example is that a brigade of the Japanese army corresponds to a battalion of the Chinese army. In many cases, even a brigade can easily defeat a regiment of the Chinese army.

but.

The superiority of the Japanese army's strength is not applicable to the Eighth Route Army.

A division of the Eighth Route Army actually has 10,000+ people.

A brigade of the Eighth Route Army has tens of thousands of people, and another example is the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army, which is only a mere regiment, with more than 2 people, and its strength is comparable to a Type A division of the Locust Army.

Up to now, a division of the Eighth Route Army dared to challenge the First Army of the Locust Army of the Great Japanese Empire.

outrageous.

The key is that right now the First Army can only defend, not counterattack. The Commander of the First Army is a coward...

"Hi!" The voice of the intelligence staff notified was affirmative, "The main force of the 129th Division of the Eighth Route is approaching the Bai-Jin defense line, and another Eighth Route is heading north along the He-Liao Highway."

With no fighters or bombers in the North China Front Army, the main force of the 129th Division can march in broad daylight without any scruples, and even the artillery units don't have to worry about being bombed by Devil fighters.

Naturally, such a swaggering march could not be concealed from the devil's intelligence network.

However, the main force of the 129th Division went north this time, just like the last time, the focus was on deterrence, there was no need to hide their whereabouts, and the card told the devil that your grandpa Eighth Road is here.

"Balu is courting death."

"Commander, this is an opportunity for my First Army. I suggest that the 41st Division and the 1st Cavalry Brigade be dispatched immediately to defeat the 129th Division, the main force of the Eighth Route Army, in one fell swoop."

"By the way, Balu will be expelled from Southeast Shanxi."

Chief of Staff Hua Guzheng's tone is very arrogant, he has always been the main offensive faction.

"Miyazaki-kun, what do you think?"

Yoshio Iwamatsu looked at Masao Miyazaki, the deputy chief of staff.

"Your Excellency, Commander."

Masao Miyazaki said: "At present, the fierce battle in the northwest of Shanxi is in full swing, and the raids of the locust army's mopping up troops are not going well. I think the first army should not take the initiative to attack, but focus on defense. On the one hand, if the locust army attacks the northwest of Shanxi If it doesn't go well, General Okamura will probably mobilize troops from the First Army to continue to reinforce Northwest Shanxi. On the other hand, the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army is now strong, and the First Army is bound to suffer great losses if it takes the initiative to attack. The Eighth Route in the northwest, and then turn around and concentrate superior forces and firepower to completely eliminate the 129th Division in Southeast Shanxi."

Masao Miyazaki is on the defensive.

Hua Guzheng asked: "Does Miyazaki-kun think that the First Army of the Locust Army can't defeat the 129th Division?"

"Of course I can fight." Masao Miyazaki said, "But as I said just now, if my First Army can beat the 129th Division, there will inevitably be heavy casualties. Since there is a better way, why use locust soldiers? Are you going to fight for your life?"

Hua Guzheng asked again: "Isn't it good to solve the 129th Division and the Shanxi Northwest Eighth Road at once?"

Masao Miyazaki said: "That's good, but it's hard to say whether the five divisions of the Locust Army can solve the Eight Routes in Northwest Shanxi."

"Stop talking." Yoshio Iwamatsu said coldly, "Hanagu-kun, immediately send power to the 14th and 18th Brigades along the Baijin Line, and withdraw to Taiyuan for defense."

The 14th Brigade and the 18th Brigade combined have more than 1 people, and there is a high probability that they will not be able to beat the main force of the 129th Division.

The 41st Division in Taiyuan was taken away and an infantry wing was used to attack Northwest Shanxi.

However, the attitude of the Central Army is unclear, and it may cross the Yellow River to attack Zhongtiao Mountain. Therefore, the 41st Division may have to withdraw its troops to support the 33rd Division.

If the First Army fought against the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army at this time, the situation would not be good, so Yoshio Iwamatsu decisively chose to temporarily avoid the 129th Division.

"Hi!"

Hua Guzheng really wanted to fight against the 129th Division of the Eighth Route, but since Yoshio Iwamatsu decided to defend, he had no choice but to obey orders.

Immediately, Huagu was starting to draft a telegram and asked the guards to send it to the communication room.

At this moment, Kazuki Yamamoto came in with a saber in his arms, with a serious expression on his face. Masao Miyazaki and Hanagu were expressionless. Both of them didn't like this guy very much.

Kazuki Yamamoto has a strong military ability and has his own unique views and insights in the military, but he doesn't know much about the world. He always puts on an expression that others owe him 100 gold bars.

"General, are you looking for me?"

Kazuki Yamamoto's footsteps snapped, and he bowed his head to Yoshio Iwamatsu.

"Yamamoto-kun, are you here?"

Yoshio Iwamatsu looked relaxed, picked up a message from the table, and said to Kazuki Yamamoto:

"Yamamoto-kun, the weapon you snatched from Eighth Road with the special agent team is very important to the locust army. That weapon has been sent to the Tokyo Ordnance Research Institute."

"You have made great contributions this time, and the base camp has decided to promote your rank to major general."

"Congratulations, Yamamoto-kun."

Although Kazuki Yamamoto doesn't understand the world, Yoshio Iwamatsu likes the practical school.

Since Kazuki Yamamoto took over Taiyuan's defense, he has successively uncovered the intelligence personnel of the eight-way underground party, the military command of the national army, and Yan Xishan lurking in Taiyuan city.

Coupled with the achievements of the Battle of Zhongtiaoshan and the snatching of the bazooka rocket launcher, he was finally promoted to major general.

"Thank you General!"

Kazuki Yamamoto's eyes flickered slightly, he bowed his head in thanks, then reached out to take the commission letter, and glanced at the contents of the commission letter, only the military rank but no position.

He was a little disappointed, and thought that the base camp would let him be a brigade commander, so that he could fight with the Eighth Route New Regiment and avenge Commander Shinozuka Yoshio.

Kazuki Yamamoto's classmates had been promoted to generals long ago, but he was still the rank of Colonel, mainly because his research topics were too biased.

But Kazuki Yamamoto has never regretted it. The Second World War is a broad stage. Special forces colleagues from various countries have already shown their talents on the battlefield. How can the history of special operations of the Japanese Locust Army be blank?
Of course, Kazuki Yamamoto knew very well that Yoshio Iwamatsu must have given him all the credit for snatching the new eight-way weapon.

"Congratulations, Yamamoto-kun!"

"Congratulations, Major General Kazuki Yamamoto."

Hanaya is congratulating Masao Miyazaki. Although he doesn't like this guy, he still needs to be superficial.

Yoshio Iwamatsu said: "Experts from the Ordnance Department are studying it. It won't be long before the locust army can imitate that kind of anti-tank weapon. By then... the Eight Route tanks are just scrap iron."

A year later, Yoshio Iwamatsu and Kazuki Yamamoto looked at the anti-tank weapon like a toilet plug, lost in thought.

But that's all for later.

……

Northwest Shanxi.

Dagu Town.

After the devil's fifth attack failed, he did not launch the sixth attack for a long time.

The first battalion of the new regiment quickly cleaned the battlefield and counted the casualties.

In the fifth attack of the Japanese army, the first battalion suffered more than 130 new casualties.

Thanks to Li Yunlong's quick response, the Heavy Artillery Battalion, the 1st Artillery Battalion, including the [-]st Battalion's anti-slope mortar volley, intercepted the artillery fire, making it impossible for the follow-up troops of the devils to come up.

The devils added nearly 300 casualties.

Several militiamen carried two stretchers, on which were two wounded Japanese soldiers, and walked past the headquarters of the new regiment.

Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang, Chen Feng and others just came out of the command department, and saw two devils lying on a stretcher kicking and biting the militiamen, tearing the bandages back.

Li Yunlong was annoyed at once: "Damn it, don't be ashamed, ask these bastards, what do you want to do?"

"Report to the head of the regiment!" An interpreter said: "The devil said, sir, please let us die!"

Li Yunlong was immediately happy when he heard this: "You are still a man. I am worried about how I will give you a ride. You bastards have to waste two stretchers of my militia squad. For the request of death, Lao Tzu will usually help him, and it is also convenient for everyone.”

"Old Li, don't mess around." Zhao Gang quickly reminded.

"Don't worry, old Li understands." Li Yunlong looked at Chen Feng and said, "Consultant Chen, these two devils belong to you now."

Li Yunlong is that the Eighth Route Army cannot kill these two devils.

At the Battle of Xinkou, Li Yunlong's regiment captured five devils alive, and those five devils also begged to die in the same way. Li Yunlong shot and killed five devils on the spot, and was punished with a major demerit, becoming the deputy head of the regiment.

But Chen Feng is not the Eighth Route Army, so there is no problem at all if he does it.

If the two devils were quiet, Li Yunlong would save their lives. After all, the devil soldiers of the Class A division are not easy to catch alive.

But the two devils wanted to die, so Li Yunlong had no choice but to meet their demands.

Seeing that Zhao Gang didn't object, Chen Feng took out his pistol and shot each of the two devils in the head.

The first time he killed someone, Chen Feng felt very good. After all, he killed a devil, and he felt happy without any sense of guilt.

Both Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang were a little secretly surprised. Boss Chen looked like a novice from the way he acted, but his calm expression didn't look like he was pretending.

"Brother Chen is good at marksmanship."

Leader Li Datuan was very happy to satisfy Boss Chen's dream of killing devils, and the business relationship will become stronger in the future.

Chen Feng stared at the light blue panel of the system, to see if the system would release something good.

"Ding!"

When the system prompt sounded, the corners of Chen Feng's mouth twitched slightly, but after seeing what the system revealed, the corners of Chen Feng's mouth froze.

"Congratulations to the host for killing two Japanese soldiers. I have obtained information: The Japanese heavy artillery unit will arrive in Northwest Shanxi in five days. Please contact the host as soon as possible. The price for destroying the Japanese heavy artillery unit is..."

Chen Feng almost lost his mind.

Sure enough, Li Yunlong is the real father of the system, the devil killed by labor and management, why not give labor and management something to explode?
