Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 705 A Blessing in Misfortune (Third Update!)
As a traffic artery on the Tongpu Line, Linfen City is very lively with a large number of trains coming in and out every day.

Of course, this also brought unprecedented prosperity to Linfen City.A large number of Japanese opened chambers of commerce in Linfen City, and even many Japanese businessmen could not offend Major General Matsumoto of Linfen City.

As businessmen, the most important thing these Japanese value is profit. As for military operations and the future of the empire, they don't care about it, and they can't control it.

Therefore, when the fighting outside Linfen City was lively, the city of Linfen was still full of feasting and feasting, and there was no sign of war at all.

Less than two days after Linfen City was closed, the city gate had to be opened at the instigation of Japanese businessmen in the city.

Merchants want to do business to make money, and if no one enters and exits Linfen City, there is no way to do business.

The target Wang Ping chose for revenge was the city of Linfen, which seemed to be heavily defended by the devils, but was tight on the outside and loose on the inside.

Dozens of reconnaissance platoons and soldiers of the directly subordinate team with guns easily entered Linfen City.But Major General Matsumoto didn't know that an Eighth Route Army unit had already entered his stomach.

"Captain, we've made it clear that there are three devils in the city who own the largest chamber of commerce, and they respectively control the food, medicine, and salt in Linfen City! No matter who it is, if they want to get these three things, they must buy them from them! "Reconnaissance platoon leader Tang Guangxin reported with anger on his face.

"The common people hate these three chambers of commerce, but they are all run by Japanese. No matter how much you hate them, you can only hate them as ninjas?"

Li Wen frowned and asked, "Why?"

"The price they sell to the common people is too high!" Tang Guangxin replied.

"Whether it's medicine, food or salt, because only they have it, the price is more than [-]% higher than other places. Although the common people are very reluctant, but they are the only ones who have food and salt in Linfen City. In the end, only You can grit your teeth and save food and money to buy food!"

"That's not counting. In the past, there were many pharmacies and grain stores in Linfen City. However, after the devils came, they didn't know what method they used. They bought all the other grain stores and pharmacies at a very low price, and then It turns out that the owners of the grain store and the pharmacy have disappeared!"

"I heard from everyone that they should have been silenced by devils!"

Li Wen couldn't help cursing: "Such devils are even more hateful than the Japanese on the battlefield. Let's choose them. We will act tonight and kill them!"

Tang Guangxin quickly reminded: "Captain Li, don't worry, I haven't finished yet!"

"The common people hate the devils of these three chambers of commerce. Some of them tried to kill them, but they all failed."

"However, these assassinations have aroused the vigilance of the devils from the chamber of commerce. For the safety of themselves and the chamber of commerce, the three chambers of commerce have found dozens of Japanese samurai from nowhere to protect their safety!"

"Protect the safety of the chamber of commerce at night, and bully the common people in Linfen City during the day. Every devil warrior has a life in his hands!"

"These people are veterans who have retired from the devil. They are very powerful in combat. They are also equipped with rifles and machine guns. They are very powerful in combat. If they act rashly, I am worried that something will happen!"

Not only was Li Wen not worried, but he looked excited.

"That's just to put them in the same pot, so that our actions tonight will have greater influence and deter the devils, so that the devils will not dare to attack us ordinary people casually in the future!"

On the frontal battlefield, to deal with dozens of devil veterans, the direct team may have to go through a lot of trouble, spend a lot of effort, and even pay some casualties.

But now it's a sneak attack.

More importantly, these devils, relying on their identity as Japanese, do not look down on the Chinese at all, and get drunk every day, which makes it easier for the direct team to attack.

The direct subordinate team took the lead, followed by the scouting platoon, and entered these chambers of commerce with ease.

Then relying on cold weapons, he brutally stabbed dozens of devil veterans to death on the bed.

"Captain Li, one person was killed in the immediate team and one soldier was injured. Two soldiers were sacrificed in the investigation platoon and four were injured!" Tang Guangxin reported with excitement on his face.

"Good job!" Li Wen's tense nerves finally relaxed.

"Clean the battlefield and take away everything you can carry, especially gold and silver medicines, which are urgently needed by the troops!"

"These devils have been in Linfen City for such a long time, and they have earned a lot of people's money from the people every day. They must have hidden a lot of good things in their homes. Find them all and bring them out of Linfen City to support the anti-Japanese war!"

"How to take it out?" Tang Guangxin asked, frowning.

"Although the devil's security in the city is very loose, the security at the gate of the city is very strict. We still have the remains of the wounded and sacrificed soldiers. At least two carts are needed to pull them out!"

"We don't need a big cart, we just use a car!" Li Wenyu replied surprisingly.

"I just found two cars used by the devils to transport food in the backyard. The people directly under the team are driving back. We will drive out tomorrow."

"If the devils interrogate and directly tell the city to pull food, the captured and wounded will be hidden in the carriage. If the devils guarding the city gate insist on checking, we will break out. Platoon leader Tang, take other people, go out of the city empty-handed, and then find The weapons and ammunition we buried outside the city are ready to respond at any time!)”

"It's best if there is no battle. If there is a battle, you have only one mission, and the slow devils may send chasers!"

After the First Brigade of Infantry was wiped out by the Xinyi Regiment, Major General Matsumoto was in a bad mood.

First, I locked myself in the room for a whole day, reflecting on the various loopholes and problems in fighting the new regiment.Then he wrote a telegram of several thousand words to the headquarters, demanding to bear all the responsibilities for the failure of the counter-encirclement campaign.

Fortunately for Matsumoto, the command let him continue to serve as brigade commander.

Not only that, but three brigades and supporting equipment were drawn from the domestic recruits to supplement Matsumoto.

The reason is simple. Although Matsumoto lost the battle to encircle and suppress the Xinyi Regiment, he also lost troops.However, the Tongpu Line passing through Linfen has not been attacked in the past few months since Matsumoto became the head of the garrison brigade.A steady stream of materials and equipment were transported to the front line through this railway to support the war.

Compared with other places, this result is much better.

Coupled with the operation of Matsumoto's subsequent political predators, Matsumoto was a blessing in disguise. Not only was he not punished, but he turned the head of the garrison brigade into an independent mixed brigade head and returned to the field force!
Matsui, who was in a much better mood, had just returned to the war room when the Chief of Staff ran over.

"General, the Second Battalion telegraphed that the Eighth Route Army in Fengyun Town and Tianxin Town did not attack them, and only sent a small amount of reconnaissance troops to confront them!"

"According to the investigation, the Xinyi Regiment also lost troops in the battle. They are now recovering their strength and..."

"And what!" Matsumoto asked, frowning.

"Rescue the common people. We bombed Tianjiazhuang, causing a large number of civilian casualties. The main force of the new regiment is over there!"

Matsumoto's eyes lit up, and he said unexpectedly: "The bombing is good, let them rescue them. They are short of supplies and medicines are limited. If they save the people, they will have no medicines and live on their own. Pass my order, all pharmacies and hospitals that sell medicines in the city , Strictly control the medicines for the treatment of gunshot wounds. Even if I can't encircle them immediately, I will slowly weaken their strength through the blockade!"

"The general is wise!" the chief of staff said with a compliment.
