Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 1186 The Lieutenant General's Ambition ([-]rd update!)

The headquarters of the Japanese Army Division in Linfen City.

Lieutenant General Fujino has been in a very good mood these two days.

Okamura Ningji actually chose himself as a breakthrough point for the imperial army to sweep the North China Eighth Route Army.

As a senior officer of the imperial army who had just been promoted to the rank of lieutenant general, Lieutenant General Fujino knew that this was another chance for the commander, a good chance to gain military exploits.

As long as he can kill the old opponent Xinyi regiment, and then send troops to reinforce the imperial army on other battlefields, let the imperial army win the entire sweep.Then he will be able to win the first victory of the whole sweep.At that time, not only will he be able to secure his position as the commander of the lieutenant general division, but he will also be able to accumulate military exploits and capital for further promotion in the future.

Thinking that he would be promoted to lieutenant general of the Imperial Army in the near future, Lieutenant General Fujino, standing in front of the sand table, couldn't help showing a smile on his face, which made all the subordinates in the command headquarters bewildered.

"Sir, the Taiyuan Military Headquarters sent a telegram that the reinforcements from the Front Army arrived in Taiyuan a day ago. The [-] new recruits that the Military Headquarters gave us, including a garrison brigade, a mountain artillery brigade, and a cavalry brigade, are also in place."

"The reinforced wing that the front army transferred to us from Beiping includes three reinforced infantry brigades, a mountain artillery brigade, and a rapid-fire artillery squadron!"

"The transportation brigade that delivered food and ammunition supplies to us is also a reinforced brigade. There are a total of six transportation squadrons. Each transportation squadron is responsible for more than 1000 two hundred mules and horses, and a total of [-] dead mules and horses~"

"The total strength of the entire mixed brigade exceeds 500 people, and there are three other regiments with a total of [-] imperial alliance troops to assist the supply team to deliver food to us, responsible for those mules and horses!"

"Yoxi, very good!" Fujino replied very satisfied.

"With these supplies and troops, our division doesn't have to shrink its heads anymore, and can take the initiative to attack and kill the new regiment!"

Once bitten, twice shy……

Seeing Fujino getting more and more excited as he talked, the Chief of Staff couldn't help reminding.

"Division Commander, the Eighth Route Army's intelligence system is pervasive. I'm sure they have received relevant information!"

"I'm worried that they will concentrate their forces to raid our reinforcements and intercept those food and ammunition supplies like last time!"

The smile on Lieutenant General Fujino's face disappeared, and two cold lights shot out from his eyes quickly!
"Your Excellency the Commander has already considered this point, otherwise we wouldn't have recruited so many mules and horses to deliver food and ammunition supplies!"

The chief of staff then added: "Division commander, I know that using mules and horses can reduce the dependence of mixed brigades on roads, and pass through the Eighth Route Army base in the shortest time!"

"However, they are really too cunning, especially our old opponent, Xinxinyi Regiment, which is almost impossible to guard against. I always have a hunch that the Xinyi Regiment will not let the reinforcements pass by with food and ammunition supplies so easily. Their base!"

Fujino shook his head and replied: "Chief of Staff, you are a little too worried!"

"I admit that the Xinyi Regiment is indeed very powerful, defeating the imperial army's raids on them time and time again. But don't forget that this mixed brigade that reinforces us has more than 500 people in the imperial army alone, and it only lasts for two days One night in their base!"

"The reinforcements are covered by aviation during the day, no matter how powerful the Xinyi Regiment is, they dare not risk being bombed by planes to attack them!"

"So, the Eighth Route Army's chance is only one night!"

"Do you think it's possible to attack and kill one of our mixed brigades overnight?"

"How many troops will the new regiment have to mobilize, 1 or 2, do they have so many troops to mobilize?"

"Now, I'm not worried about them going to attack the reinforcements, but I'm worried that they won't attack our reinforcements!"

"As long as they dare to go there, I believe our reinforcements will be able to repel their attack and injure them severely. At that time, we will send two infantry brigades to kill them, and it may be possible to wipe out their attacking troops!"

Then he ordered: "Chief of Staff, your reminder is just in time!"

"The reinforcements have just arrived in Taiyuan, and it will take at least two days to start. If I remember correctly, the Imperial Association Army has initially formed combat effectiveness."

"Use the ratio of one regiment of the Imperial Association Army for one squadron of the Imperial Army, and replace me with two brigades of the Imperial Army. Stand by at any time and get ready to attack!"

"If the new regiment really dares to send troops to attack our reinforcements, I will let these two infantry brigades be the last straw to overwhelm the new regiment's attacking troops!"

"Hi... I'll arrange it now!" The chief of staff replied immediately, with a lingering fear on his face.

Outside the city of Taiyuan, more than 8000 Japanese troops, 7000 Imperial Army troops, plus more than [-] mules and horses carrying food and ammunition supplies, were so mighty that it took nearly two hours to walk out of the city gate.

At this time, the forward squadron of the mixed brigade was already ten kilometers away from Taiyuan City.

"Go to the front and set up a series of mines for the devils, tell the devils that they have been targeted by our Eighth Route Army, and let them be vigilant anytime and anywhere!" On a hill outside Taiyuan City, Li Wen was holding a binoculars with excitement on his face. ordered.

As a special soldier, no one is more eager to fight than him.

Looking at the devils on the road who couldn't see the edge at a glance, Li Wen seemed to have seen scenes of devils being killed by him.

"I'll go there now!" a sub-leader ordered.

Then he replied happily: "Just last night, we prepared a few supplementary landmines, and we will bury them all for the devils in a while, and we guarantee to kill more than ten little devils!"

After speaking, the confident team leader rushed to the foot of the mountain.

Major General Shibazaki is a high-ranking joint leader of the Japanese army and temporarily concurrently serves as the head of the mixed brigade.

After arriving in Linfen City, he, the brigade commander, can become a regular brigade commander and become a veritable major general brigade commander under Fujino.

He is very confident about his mission.

Although he heard others discuss how powerful the new regiment was more than once when he was at the front army headquarters, he always had a dismissive expression.

In his opinion, the reason why the imperial army was defeated time and time again by the new regiment was not because the new regiment was so powerful, but because the commanders of the imperial army were too stupid.

If he were to command the imperial army against the new regiment on the battlefield, he would definitely be able to kill the opponent.

As a high-ranking wing captain, Major General Shibasaki is full of confidence in his commanding ability.You know, even Commander Neiji Okamura praised him more than once for his ability to train troops and fight wars.

At this time, the adjutant came over and reported hesitantly: "Sir, the head of the Fujino Division in Linfen City sent a telegram asking us to step up our guard. The opponent Xinyi regiment is too cunning, and it is very likely that we will be arrested by them as soon as we leave Taiyuan City." Watch it!"

"The head of the division is too cautious, he must be scared of being beaten by the Shinichi regiment!" Major General Shibazaki replied with a puzzled expression.

"This is Taiyuan City, not Linfen. No matter how capable the New First Regiment is, it is impossible for the Xinyi Regiment to come here! Taiyuan City is the headquarters of the Imperial Army, and it is heavily guarded. Not to mention the main force of the Eighth Route Army, even their guerrillas and intelligence personnel It's hard to survive here!"

"Call back to the head of the Fujino Division: "We will strengthen our vigilance, please rest assured!" "

As soon as the adjutant left, Major General Shibazaki followed closely and ordered: "The troop marching speed must be accelerated. I want to get to Linfen in the shortest time, and then I will have a good look at my future opponent, Xinyituan!"
