Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 1118 The Aggrieved Lieutenant General (First Update!)

After suffering a big loss at the hands of the Xinyi Regiment, Lieutenant General Ito, the head of the division, did not directly send troops to retaliate like other commanders. Instead, he stopped fighting and defended Linfen City. There was almost no movement for nearly half a year.

Of course, this is all on the surface, secretly, Lieutenant General Ito has not been idle for a day.

After safely withdrawing to Linfen, Lieutenant General Ito discovered a very important problem.One of the most important reasons why the entire encirclement and suppression campaign failed was that the intelligence collection was not as good as the Xinyi Regiment.

Xinyi regiment can control its own strength, equipment situation, and even marching route all the time.But I don't know how many troops the opponent's Xinyi regiment has, what kind of equipment it is, and where the troops are hidden...

In order to solve this problem, Lieutenant General Ito spent half a year arranging inner ghosts in the Xinyi regiment, and then started operations against the Xinyi regiment outside the city a few months ago.

With the help of the inner ghost, Lieutenant General Ito is no longer a stranger to Xinyituan.

He had reinvented the regiment several times in a row on the battlefield, but every time he was severely injured, his subordinates had a chance to wipe out those Eighth Route Army.However, at critical moments, Lieutenant General Ito released the water.

Those inner ghosts were among the ambushed Eighth Route Army troops.After the complete annihilation, those insiders will be gone.

However, if I let them go, those inner ghosts will climb to higher and higher positions, and then provide myself with more important information.

I have to say that Lieutenant General Ito is a very strategic commander, and his goal has been achieved.

The inner ghost provided him with accurate information three times in a row, and directly recreated the three battalions of the new regiment. The inner ghost was also promoted from a platoon leader to a company commander within half a year by virtue of the rest of his life after each catastrophe, and provided him with some information about the new regiment. More classified intelligence.

"Division commander, the insider just sent us a piece of information from outside the city!" The division chief of staff walked into Lieutenant General Ito's office and reported excitedly.

Lieutenant General Ito had given special orders to those ghosts hiding inside the Xinyi Regiment that they must not contact the city unless they had important information, so as to minimize the possibility of their exposure.

Now that the other party took the risk of being exposed to send information to him, there was only one possibility, something happened to Xinyituan!

"Wang Ping!" After reading the information, Lieutenant General Ito exuded a strong murderous aura.

In his mind, he will never forget Wang Ping for the rest of his life.

It was Wang Ping who made himself experience the first disastrous defeat, from being the head of a field division to the current head of a local defense division.

Although the front army did not have a specific order, Lieutenant General Ito had already smelled something unusual in letting himself stay in Linfen to deal with the new regiment.

You know, during the sweep a year ago, the front army strengthened its heavy artillery and the artillery wing directly under the division, either lost or blown up.I have reported to the front army more than once, asking to replenish these artillery, at least to make up for the artillery lost by the artillery wing.

However, a year later, the front army only sent itself a field artillery brigade, a mountain artillery brigade, a total of 24 mountain artillery.

As for heavy artillery and tanks, the front army did not mention it.

There are no heavy artillery and tanks, and even the artillery wing is not enough to form. Without orders from the front army, the division has been reduced from a field division to a local garrison division in terms of firepower!
All of this was caused by Wang Ping himself.

After returning to Linfen, although Lieutenant General Ito did not explicitly say that he wanted to kill Wang Ping for revenge.But he had already vowed secretly in his heart that he must kill Wang Ping and wash away the series of shame Wang Ping had brought to him.

Now that Wang Ping finally came back from Yan'an, Lieutenant General Ito's first reaction was that his chance of revenge had come.

The chief of staff next to him immediately interjected: "It is Wang Ping, the head of the new regiment who severely injured us a year ago. He has returned, and he has arrived outside Linfen City, planning to command three battalions of troops to take revenge on us!"

"That depends on whether he has the ability!" Lieutenant General Ito replied with gritted teeth.

"Contact our insider, as long as you know Wang Ping's battle plan, send it to us immediately!"

"For this information, we will give him 5000 yuan to buy it~"

The chief of staff replied: "The price has directly increased by five times compared to the original one. I believe that our insiders hidden in these three battalions will definitely rush to send out the information!"

"For 5000 yuan, even if they leave the Eighth Route Army, no matter where they go, they can live freely for a lifetime!"

"I just want them to work hard~ If we don't work hard, we won't be able to grasp the movements of the Eighth Route Army in time!" Lieutenant General Ito replied with a frown.

"I spent a month studying this Wang Ping. One of the important reasons why he beat us time and time again is that he never played cards according to common sense. And the fighting speed is very fast. If you seize the opportunity, you will give the imperial army a fatal blow." Attack, don't give the imperial army any chance to breathe!"

"For such an opponent, if we want to defeat him, we must be faster than him!"

"Therefore, we need to obtain information quickly. You inform the intelligence department and keep an eye on these insiders. As long as there is information to be sent out, it must be sent to me as soon as possible. If possible, I will catch it." Take this opportunity and kill Wang Ping!"

"Information said, this Wang Ping came back with a mission."

"The army has grown to 3 people within a year, and now more than 1 people have caused such a big trouble for the imperial army. If there are really 3 people, I can't imagine whether we still have a foothold in Southwest Shanxi! "

"This Wang Ping is too powerful, and it is difficult for people to figure it out. As long as he is given time, he can definitely do this!"

"So, we can't give him this chance!"

"Seizing this opportunity and killing him is the easiest way for us to solve all problems once and for all."

The chief of staff also became fanatical, and immediately replied: "I'll go and give the order!"

A day later, Lieutenant General Ito received the information.

"Division Commander, the Xinyi Regiment plans to attack the stronghold of Touguan Town, because Touguan Town is the farthest from Linfen, and it is a traffic artery, it is like a nail nailed to the base of the Eighth Route Army. Treat it as a forward base for our counter-offensive. So we deployed an imperial army with a full brigade there, a regiment of imperial association army!"

"Nearly [-] Imperial Army and Imperial Association Army, will the Eighth Route Army have the ability to take it down?" Lieutenant General Ito asked back with a frown

"Yes, as long as the Eighth Route Army deploys its artillery, it will definitely take Touguan Town easily!" The chief of staff replied very positively.

Then he added: "In addition, there is another factor why the Eighth Route Army chose to attack here!"

"Linfen City is nearly [-] kilometers away from Touguan Town, and the infantry can reach it in three hours with a quick march. However, there is a problem here!"

The chief of staff pointed to the map and introduced: "Here, there are nearly five kilometers of roads in hilly areas. As long as the Eighth Route Army deploys 1000 people here, they can stop us for two or three hours at will!"

Lieutenant General Ito frowned and said with emotion: "Wang Ping is worthy of being Wang Ping, his vision is vicious!"
