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

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

The flames of war were raging.

Bullets were fired rapidly.

In the next few days.

The Japanese quickly launched an intensive offensive against the Eighth Route Army base. They used the battalion as the basic combat unit and launched various attacks from different regions and at different times.

The Japanese had already prepared for this action, and their combat power was already strong.

It was only a short time after the contact.

Large areas of the base fell into the hands of the Japanese one after another.

In just a few days.

The situation in the entire Jinzhong took a sharp turn for the worse.

…

Heiyun Village.

Martial Arts Hall.

At this time, all the backbones of the camp gathered here.

"Battalion Commander!"

Yang Zhihua said solemnly: "Your previous estimate was correct. The Japanese's mopping-up operation was indeed much earlier. According to the latest intelligence just received, the Japanese's second, fourth and seventh brigades have already begun operations, and they have also mobilized a large number of imperial army and local security groups to participate. The total force has reached nearly 30,000!"

As soon as these words came out.

Everyone present had a solemn face.

Even Lu Zhixian frowned and murmured: "The Japanese are really coming with great force this time!"

Let's not talk about the imperial army and local security groups for now.

The three brigades of the Japanese alone are their elite main forces, divided into six infantry regiments, including the notorious Sakata Regiment, with a total force of about 20,000!

These 20,000 people can completely rival the main divisions of the Japanese!

"Battalion commander!"

Wei Dayong said in embarrassment: "The Japanese have deployed so many troops this time, what should we do?"

Everyone present also cast inquiring eyes.

Although the strategy of assisting the Eighth Route Army in resisting the Japanese had been determined long ago, they were a little hesitant when they saw the Japanese dispatching so many elite troops.

"Things are not that bad!"

Lu Zhixian glanced at the map, but his eyes became stern again. He said slowly: "I did not expect the Japanese to dispatch such a large force this time, but all their troops need to be dispersed throughout the Jinzhong area. In this way, the troops are not so scary. At least in some places we can still do something!"

I have taken the rewards I chose before, can I regret it now?

Besides, he himself has no fear at all. Instead, he tries his best to find opportunities to annihilate the enemy in this complex situation.

"The battalion commander is right!"

Chen Feng nodded and said, "Although the bases occupied by the Eighth Route Army are mostly mountainous forests and rural areas, they are vast and complex in terrain. If the Japanese want to clear them out, they will inevitably go deep into the bases, which will cause corresponding difficulties in their material supply and troop dispatch. As long as we seize the opportunity, we may have a chance."

"That's good!"

Wei Dayong breathed a sigh of relief.

The rest of the people present also nodded frequently.

With the current strength of their anti-Japanese battalion, it is extremely difficult to deal with the Japanese regiment. If they really face the nearly 20,000 elite Japanese troops from these three brigades, anyone would feel hesitant!

"Everyone!"

Lu Zhixian didn't say anything nonsense. He looked around and said solemnly: "The actions of the devils have begun. Although they haven't directly approached us in the past few days, we have to actively respond for the sake of the war of resistance and our own safety! Pass on my military order, all companies will immediately enter a state of readiness, and all weapons and equipment will also enter the wartime replenishment sequence. In addition, recall the special operations team immediately!"

"Yes, battalion commander!"

Everyone immediately took the order.

Lu Zhixian looked at the map and said solemnly: "The war has finally arrived. In this battle, our anti-war battalion must make the devils pay the price!"

...

Mishanao.

The temporary station of the Eighth Route Army.

At this time, the entire command center seemed tense and busy. Both leaders at all levels and ordinary soldiers could feel the feeling of impending storm.

"Report! The 9th Battalion of the Second Brigade of the Japanese has captured Xiyang Village. At present, our 223rd Regiment stationed here has suffered heavy losses and has retreated to the hinterland of the base."

"Report! The First Battalion of the Fourth Brigade of the Japanese has just captured Longshanpo and is currently heading towards Deyun Village! It is estimated that it will be able to approach the Tashangou area in 10 hours."

"Report! The Third Battalion of the Seventh Brigade of the Japanese was the first to break through our Meizilin. At present, it is disturbed by the dense forest and cannot continue to use large-scale troops, but it will only trouble it for about three hours at most."

"..."

Various kinds of news came in overwhelmingly.

At this time, all the personnel also had extremely solemn faces.

"The enemy is coming so fast!"

The commander kept marking on the map and kept advancing there.They made various judgments.

"Yes!"

The chief of staff nodded and said solemnly: "Although we have long received news that the scale of the Japanese's mopping-up operation is not small, we did not expect that the other side would directly send three brigades, and they acted extremely quickly, which was much faster than we expected."

"It is indeed very sudden!"

The commander's face was a little ugly.

You should know that there has always been intelligence about the movements of the Japanese, and their headquarters has been paying attention to it all the time.

But according to their prediction.

The entire operation of the Japanese should take at least half a month to launch, but they did not expect that they would directly launch an attack from various enemy-occupied areas in the blink of an eye.

This has never happened before.

"Commander!"

The chief of staff said worriedly, "The Japanese are coming with great force this time. It seems that they want to completely wipe out our Eighth Route Army!"

"Humph!"

The commander sneered and said, "They are dreaming! I admit that the Japanese did mobilize a lot of troops this time, but the land of Shanxi Province is vast, and the terrain is complex and changeable. Do the Japanese really think that they can wipe out our Eighth Route Army with just these people? That is absolutely wishful thinking. This time they use the battalion as the basic combat unit, and the density must be very low, which can give us a lot of opportunities."

"What does the commander mean?"

"Lure the enemy deep into the country! Annihilate them one by one!"

"Hmm?"

The chief of staff raised his eyebrows.

The commander said proudly: "As long as we can lure the Japanese to complex terrain such as mountains, forests, and earth slopes, the Japanese reinforcements and material replenishment will definitely be limited, and the connection between them will not change. At that time, we will have room to advance or retreat. On the contrary, it is entirely possible to concentrate superior forces to annihilate part of them."

"Good!"

The chief of staff couldn't help but applaud when he heard it.

The commander looked at the map again, but with a little worry on his face, he said: "But - what I am most worried about now is that the Japanese suddenly launched a large-scale attack, and the various places in the border area may not be able to respond in time, and there will be some losses."
