Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 427 The gap is narrowing (third!)

Taiyuan Japanese First Army Headquarters, since the end of Taiyuan World War I, Shinozuka Yoshio never showed any smile on his face.No matter who he saw, he always had a gloomy face, with an expression of wanting to kill someone.

For half a month, several officers of the Imperial Association Army had died in Shinozuka Yoshio's anger.

The commander is in a bad mood, and the headquarters is undoubtedly the most affected.

For half a month, including the chief of staff, he could say a word in front of Yoshio Shinozuka, but he never said a word. All the anger was vented on himself.

At this time, the chief of staff was holding a telegram in his hand, and he stood at the door of the war room with a look of hesitation, neither entering nor not entering.

However, the content of the telegram is too important, and it is related to the Eighth Route Army, so it cannot be delayed for too long.In the end, he could only grit his teeth and walk up to Yoshio Shinozuka.

"Your Excellency, Commander, the Intelligence Department has just received a telegram regarding the whereabouts of the Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Eighth Route Army!"

"Nani?" Shinozuka Yoshio suddenly shot two bright eyes, staring at the Chief of Staff and asked back.

Looking for you, the strength of the Eighth Route Army in North China is growing. The position of the Eighth Route Army headquarters in the hearts of the Japanese has long surpassed that of the Second Theater Command hidden in southwestern Shanxi.

It is for this reason that the Japanese North China Front Army has a large number of intelligence personnel looking for and staring at the Eighth Route Army headquarters at all times, trying to find the Eighth Route Army headquarters, destroy it directly, and then paralyze the Eighth Route Army command system in the entire North China region.

The idea is good, but it is very difficult to realize it.

Because the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army has been hidden in the deep mountains of Taihang Mountain, and it keeps moving.Although a lot of manpower and material resources were spent, and many excellent intelligence personnel were lost, nothing was obtained in the end.

Now that he suddenly heard from the intelligence agency that he had found the whereabouts of the Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Eighth Route Army, it was impossible for Yoshio Shinozuka not to be excited.

He was taken aback for a moment, then quickly reacted, and asked with anticipation: "Where is it? Is there any troops from the imperial army there? If not, send a bomber to bomb him, and raze his hiding place to the ground. He will definitely be killed." !"

The chief of staff, Major General Tanaka, did not want to break Yoshio Shinozuka's dream, but the facts are the facts, and finally he answered bravely: "I lost my follow-up, and they didn't know the bravery of the deputy commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army until two days later. The commander-in-chief position is basically not helpful!"

"Bageyalu, why did you report to me if you didn't help? What does the Intelligence Department do for food? Where does so much military expenditure go every year? After such a long time, I haven't found any useful information!" Xiaozuka Yi Nan immediately became angry, and yelled at the chief of staff.

Major General Tanaka had expected this step a long time ago, and kept his head down without saying a word.

When Yoshio Shinozuka got tired of scolding, he continued: "Your Excellency, Commander, this information is not useless!"

"According to intelligence, the deputy commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army went to their so-called Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region a few days ago, which is Wutai Mountain. As the deputy commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army, he holds the commander of hundreds of thousands of troops in his hand. He will definitely not take risks for no reason. It has been passed on to Wutai Mountain through our two blockades, something must have happened!"

"Also, according to intelligence, although the Eighth Route Army who attacked us in Taiyuan suffered heavy losses, they were not as big as the Eighth Route Army's battle report said. The losses were at least doubled by the Eighth Route Army headquarters."

"There are also weapons and ammunition. Although we have strictly ordered the imperial army near the Eighth Route Army's garrison to prohibit attacking during this period, we will not give the Eighth Route Army a chance to be independent of us, so that they cannot obtain weapons and ammunition supplies through war support. However, this has no effect Come to these Eighth Route Army troops to restore their strength!"

"Our intelligence personnel lurking in the Eighth Route Army reported that the Eighth Route Army obtained a large amount of weapons and ammunition from unknown sources. It has only been half a month, and the Eighth Route Army that participated in the First World War in Taiyuan has already replenished the lost troops and equipment, and is hurrying to train and recover. Combat power!"

"And..." Seeing Yoshio Shinozuka's face getting more and more ugly, Major General Tanaka, who was about to continue speaking, swallowed the next words back into his stomach as soon as he said two words.

"Bageyalu, what's the bad news? I can take it all in one breath!" Shinozuka Yoshio, who was already full of anger, saw Tanaka's hesitant expression, The anger became more intense, and he didn't give Zhongtian any face, and cursed on the spot in front of more than a dozen subordinates in the war room.

"Hi!" Major General Tanaka also held back his anger.

But who made Shinozuka Yoshio a lieutenant general, the commander of the First Army of the Empire of Japan!
In the highly hierarchical Japanese army, the rule of crushing people to death at the top of the official rank is very strict. Tian Zhongshan Jian didn't have the courage to try his own methods to break this rule.

Therefore, no matter how great the grievance and dissatisfaction was, he could only hold it in his stomach, and then pretended to answer with a very helpful expression.

"The intelligence office infers that a large part of the weapons and equipment obtained by the Eighth Route Army in various places was seized from Taiyuan City. In addition, there is another possibility that the arsenal of the Eighth Route Army can already produce weapons and equipment on a large scale!"

"You know, they snatched a full set of ordnance equipment from the Taiyuan arsenal. If all these equipment are used, and their raw materials are sufficient, they can produce all the equipment for a field division of the Imperial Japanese Army in three months. equipment!"

"Although some time ago we dispatched several bomber groups to bomb the equipment that the Eighth Route Army snatched from the Taiyuan Arsenal, and achieved considerable results. But we have to admit that the destroyed equipment is insignificant compared with what the Eighth Route Army snatched, and it does not affect the Eighth Route Army at all. Expand their arsenal!"

"For this inference, the intelligence department also has relevant information!"

"In recent days, the Eighth Route Army in various places has been transporting rails to the headquarters of the Jinchaji Military Region in Mount Wutai. The intelligence personnel hidden inside the Eighth Route Army revealed that after these railroad tracks arrive at the headquarters of the Jinchaji Military Region, the Eighth Route Army in various places can directly exchange the rails for weapons and equip their weapons. force."

"Besides manufacturing weapons on a large scale, I really can't think of where the Eighth Route Army needs so many rails."

"You know, to a certain extent, rail steel can be directly used to produce ordinary light weapons, even mortars!"

"In addition, I deduce that the deputy commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army suddenly went to the headquarters of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region in Wutai Mountain a few days ago, and it must be related to the Eighth Route Army arsenal we have been looking for!"

"Baga, we must find this arsenal and destroy it!" Shinozuka Yoshio suddenly cursed, speaking in a very resolute and murderous tone.

"If this arsenal is not destroyed, the Eighth Route Army will be able to obtain a steady stream of weapons and equipment through it. At that time, the gap between the Imperial Army and the Eighth Route Army will become smaller and smaller, and the Imperial Army will no longer have an absolute advantage in North China! "
