Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 1225 The Chance to Go to Linfen (First Update!)

"Good way, since the Xinyi Regiment can't come out to fight us from hiding, then we will force them out. Otherwise, we will burn down all their so-called base areas. The Eighth Route Army has almost no logistical reserves, and it must not be able to bear it. Such a big loss!" The chief of staff replied with excitement on his face.

At this moment, a communication staff officer rushed in: "Division commander, Linfen city urgent call!"

"Our units encircling and suppressing the Eighth Route Army guerrillas in the occupied areas were ambushed by them, and the entire army was wiped out!"

"Also, those guerrillas stopped hiding. After killing our ambush troops, they openly occupied more than a dozen villages and established base areas. They also used the captured weapons to recruit troops and expand their troops!"

"What?" Lieutenant General Fujino stood up from his seat at once.

Staring at the communications staff officer, he cursed: "Ba Ge Ya Lu, are they all stupid pigs? More than 500 people can't even kill hundreds of Eighth Route Army guerrillas, and they also lost troops and generals. What are the commanders doing?" What? This is a disgrace to the empire? I will send them all to military courts!"

What the Chief of Staff was most worried about happened.

After hesitating for a few seconds, he reminded: "Division commander, those commanders have already died in battle!"

"The humble staff believes that the most important thing now is to kill those Eighth Route Army, and absolutely not allow them to help us in the rear. The Eighth Route Army's development of troops is too fast, and it won't take long for hundreds of people to become thousands of people!"

Lieutenant General Fujino did not answer with a sullen face, but frowned and asked, "How many troops are left in Linfen City?"

"The two regiments of the Imperial Association Army have 500 people, the garrison brigade, the main brigade, the gendarmerie brigade, and other technical arms, and the imperial army has nearly 3000 people!" The chief of staff replied like a few treasures.

Fujino decisively ordered: "Take out the main brigade, pair it with a mountain artillery squadron, and add a regiment of the Imperial Association Army, and send troops immediately to encircle and suppress these Eighth Route Army and kill them!"

Seeing that the head of the division finally began to pay attention to them, the chief of staff couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief, and quickly replied: "The humble staff will give orders now!"

At the headquarters of the new regiment, Chief of Staff Zhong Chenggong rushed in and reported: "Regimental Commander, the troops left behind inside are fighting night battles, guerrilla warfare, and mobile warfare against the little devils. Old troops are required to cause maximum damage to the devils with minimum casualties. Stop them!"

"I plan to keep all the troops of Yan Song and Rongjun, and then leave the armored assault battalion and cavalry battalion under the unified command of the political commissar to deal with the little devils in the base!"

"Jin Kai, Zhou Xutian, and Zhang Qingyun's troops followed us and directly entered the area occupied by the little devils to take down Linfen City!"

Wang Ping frowned and replied: "In addition to the air defense battalion, two companies of the heavy artillery battalion and six heavy artillery will follow us!"

"The direct subordinate team will follow me, the investigation company will stay behind, and follow the political commissar!"

"If there are no accidents, we will start to act tonight. We will rush to Linfen City in two nights!"

"By the way, is there any news from Hong Ruijun in the guard camp? The [-]-day puppet army went to encircle and suppress them. Two days have passed, and there should be a result!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Yong rushed in with a very complicated expression, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or sad.

Before Wang Ping could open his mouth, he reported: "Head, I bring two news, one good news and one bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"

"Old Wei, you are playing with mysteries too! If you have good news, of course you should listen to the good news first, shall we?" Wang Ping replied with a smile on his face.

"Then I'll tell you the good news first!" Wei Yong also showed a smile on his face!
"It was reported from Linfen City that Hong Ruijun led the guard battalion to successfully kill the raiding troops of the Japanese and puppet troops. The news spread to the city and caused a great commotion. Linfen City is the same!"

"This is indeed good news. With this victory, we will lose [-] enemies when we attack Linfen City!" Wang Ping replied.

Then he changed the subject and said, "If I'm not wrong, the devils will definitely not allow Hong Ruijun to digest the results of the battle in their occupied area and develop steadily!"

The smile on Wei Yong's face disappeared in an instant, his brows furrowed, and he replied: "Yes, leader, this is the bad news I'm going to say next!"

"Linfen City has assembled a reinforced brigade, and a regiment of the imperial army, ready to take revenge on Hong Ruijun. Not surprisingly, the troops have already set off, and we can fight Hong Ruijun and the others at dark today!"

Wang Ping frowned subconsciously: "Is there any of us in the puppet army regiment?"

"There are two, but they are both company commanders, who can control 60.00% of their subordinates! However, they have also developed several platoon leaders in other units. Adding them all up, the puppet army has at least 300 people in dog skins. Eighth Route Army soldiers!"

A smile suddenly flashed across Wang Ping's face, and his frown was also relaxed at this time, and then he replied in surprise: "No, Old Wei, this is probably a good thing for us!"

"Chief of Staff, help me analyze how many troops Hong Ruijun has now!"

The chief of staff replied after thinking about it: "At least 500 people, maybe 2000 people!"

"There is a battalion among the puppet army that he just killed is ours. This battalion must be directly on the battlefield. Anyway, there are no casualties. Including other puppet army prisoners, there must be 700 people!"

"More importantly, these six or seven hundred people were all trained by the little devils. Even if their combat effectiveness is not as good as our main force, it's not much worse!"

Wang Ping affirmed: "Hong Ruijun must have no less than 2000 troops now!"

"After winning the battle, it is certain that we will harvest six or seven hundred prisoners, and it is only a lot. But don't forget that we have guerrillas in every village and town in the devil-occupied area. Now they are openly playing our new regiment. Those who The guerrillas will definitely flock to join them, let alone three or four hundred people!"

"Finally, and most importantly, the Japanese and puppet troops killed by them strengthened a mortar squad and a heavy machine gun squad in addition to the devils. The regiment of the puppet army also has artillery companies and heavy machine gun companies!"

"Now that the Japanese puppet army has been killed, these heavy weapons must have fallen into the hands of Hong Ruijun!"

"With so much capital in hand, let alone killing the mopping-up troops sent by the devils today, severely injuring or holding them back, there must be no problem!"

"There are only so many people in Linfen City. Now there are 500 people missing. When we kill him and take him down, it won't be easier!"

Chief of Staff Zhong Chenggong became more and more excited the more he listened.

Originally, Wang Ping proposed to attack Linfen to force the devils to retreat. Zhong Chenggong still had doubts about whether the new regiment could take Linfen City. Now it seems that there is no problem at all.

Immediately replied: "I will send a telegram to Hong Ruijun now, inform him of the information, and order them to hold back the puppet army for more than 2000 days!"
