Anti-Japanese War: You drove me away, and now you want me to rescue you?

Lugang Village.

The new headquarters of the Eighth Route Army.

In a house in the center of the village.

At this time, the commander, the chief of staff and many other leaders of the headquarters were studying the map and formulating the next round of combat plans against the devils.

"Report!"

At this time, a signalman came quickly.

"What's the matter?"

"Just received intelligence that the devils stationed in Laiyang County suddenly began to mobilize on a large scale. Two and a half hours ago, they had sent three troops under their command to leave Laiyang County in different directions. Now their whereabouts are unknown."

"What's going on?"

The commander was suddenly startled, and his face became solemn in an instant.

Many leaders present were also shocked.

The Fourth Brigade mobilized on a large scale!

Could it be that the devils were going to launch another conspiracy at this time?

The chief of staff quickly took the information.

It was only a moment.

He handed the telegram to the commander, and said with doubt and worry: "The three battalions under the Fourth Brigade of the Japanese are each carrying a part of the Imperial Army and leaving from different directions in Laiyang County. The Japanese troops are carrying a considerable amount of weapons and equipment. It seems that this is not an ordinary military mobilization, and it seems that there is an urgent combat mission!"

Emergency combat mission!

Everyone's expression changed slightly again.

The commander also quickly scanned the entire telegram and said solemnly: "In theory, the Fourth Brigade suffered a heavy blow in the previous clearing operation. Even if it has just been supplemented with new recruits, it should be training and resting! This sudden military mobilization of such a large scale is really unreasonable!"

"That's right!"

The chief of staff nodded and frowned, "Especially the Japanese left quickly from three different directions!"

Everyone's eyebrows were full of solemnity.

What exactly do the Japanese want to do by sending so many troops at this time?

Is it aimed at the Eighth Route Army?

You should know that within the current scope of Shanxi Province, there are only two forces that are worthy of the devils' fuss and need them to act like this, that is, the Eighth Route Army and the Shanxi Suiyuan Army.

Of course, with the current shrinking posture of the Shanxi Suiyuan Army.

It is likely that they are still targeting the Eighth Route Army!

"This matter is indeed very strange!"

After all, the commander is a veteran who has been in the army for more than 20 years. He kept thinking and muttering: "The devil's actions are both sudden and rapid, which means that the Fourth Brigade must not have known about the action before, and this military action is still very urgent, otherwise they would not have completely concealed it."

"That's right!"

The chief of staff also nodded immediately.

Of course, the devils know that there are spies behind enemy lines in various counties, and almost all actions will be carried out under various covers, such as exercises, dispatches, and grain collection.

The commander thought for a moment and said in a deep voice: "If it is a military strike against the armed forces behind the enemy in the past, then the actions of the devils do not need to be carried out from three directions at the same time, which means that their goals may be different, at least from the surface situation! If so, is there such a possibility? The devils did not want to make any offensive actions, but were attacked in some way! Yes, they may be providing military support!"

"Military support?"

"That's right!"

The commander nodded.

The chief of staff thought for a moment and said: "What the chief said makes sense. After the previous disastrous defeat, the devils near Laiyang County are almost all in a state of rest. Now they have no need to take rash actions. On the contrary, at this time of year, the armed forces behind the enemy will try their best to rob their food transportation on the transportation line. Laiyang County is an important grain depot for the devils to support the front line. They may have taken action because they were attacked!"

As soon as this was said.

Everyone nodded frequently.

This explanation is really reasonable.

"Large-scale mobilization in three directions!"

The commander frowned and said in a deep voice: "This means that three locations must have been attacked at the same time. This is definitely not something that ordinary armed forces behind enemy lines can do. At this point, I am afraid that only our Eighth Route Army and Shanxi Suiyuan Army have this ability. Now all units of our Eighth Route Army are also resting, and only the Shanxi Suiyuan Army did not suffer any losses in the previous cleanup. Could it be the Shanxi Suiyuan Army?"

"This possibility is not very high!"

The chief of staff shook his head and frowned: "Not long ago, the Shanxi Suiyuan Army was crushed by the devils and ran everywhere. Do they have the courage to launch an offensive at this time?"

This statement was quickly agreed by everyone.

The commander did not hesitate for a long time. He said again: "We must find out the purpose of the devil's sudden action. Send someone to investigate now! We must find out what is going on in the shortest time!"

...

At the same time.

Chu Yunfei, who was located in Tuhuang Town, also received this news.

As a general stationed in Laiyang CountyHe was a general of the Jinsui Army in the direction of the enemy, and of course he also sent many spies to Laiyang County.

Of course, this kind of news takes time to be transmitted, and there is a lag when it returns to the garrison.

"The devils suddenly moved away?"

Chu Yunfei was also stunned when he heard the news.

Fang Ligong nodded and said seriously: "The people we have stationed in Laiyang County are closely monitoring their movements. At present, the three groups of devils are indeed moving in different directions, and carrying various weapons and equipment, as if there is a large-scale military operation. Fortunately, it seems that they are not coming for us at present."

"Leaving Laiyang County at this time? This is really a bit weird!"

Chu Yunfei frowned, his eyes full of thoughts.

"Commander!"

Fang Ligong waved his hand and said, "The actions of the devils are indeed very sudden and strange, but since they are not coming for us, we don't have to worry. Don't the Eighth Route Army always like to intercept their food supply at this time? In my opinion, perhaps the devils are preparing to go to various places to wipe out the Eighth Route Army again!"

"Humph!"

Speaking of the elimination of Chu Yunfei, his face was a little ugly.

Recently, his 358th Regiment has suffered a series of disasters.

Even if he has a good temper, he became extremely angry at this time, gritting his teeth and said, "Even if the devil's action target is not us, we must find out. Order the spies in various places to conduct a good reconnaissance for me and make sure to find out their purpose."

"Yes, Commander!"

Fang Ligong quickly accepted the order.

…

“Report! The 358th Regiment has passed Xuwang Village!”

“Report! The 358th Regiment has taken Longzhu Pass.”

“Report! The 358th Regiment has just broken through Hejiatun and is expected to arrive in Laiyang County in 20 minutes.”

“…”

Laiyang County received messages from the front from time to time.

At this time, the brigade commander Mori Shige Nagahide had already regained his former sternness. He said jokingly in a deep voice: “Yoshi! I didn’t expect Chu Yunfei to be so courageous that he actually dared to rush straight to my county! But this is also good. Since he dared to fall into the trap, this time our 4th Brigade must wash away all the shame! Pass my order, all units take their positions and prepare to meet the enemy!”
