Lijiapo.

Japanese positions.

After taking over the arsenal, the unit quickly occupied this place.

They built many simple fortifications in a very short time, and the tunnels and gullies were interlaced, which seemed difficult to break through.

Of course.

Compared with the previous crazy battle between the two sides, the entire position at this time was unusually quiet.

Rest.

Prepare for war.

Supplies.

Most of the Japanese were making various preparations to deal with the next round of stronger attacks by the Eighth Route Army.

"Sir!"

At this time, the scout came to report quickly after completing the exploration: "The entrance to the sky ahead is completely blocked by the enemy, and we are now surrounded!"

"No!"

However, Yamazaki Jihei put down the telescope and waved his hand, sneering: "We are not surrounded, this is the center blooming!"

"The center blooming?"

"That's right!"

Yamazaki Jihei was full of confidence and smiled proudly: "As long as we can hold this position, the reinforcements will form a huge encirclement on the periphery and eat up the enemy's main force in one bite!"

"But-"

"No buts."

Yamazaki Jihei seemed to know that What Fang wanted to say, he joked: "From what we have seen, the enemy has indeed deployed a lot of troops in the surrounding area, and there are probably as many as four or five combat regiments alone. But from the battle just now, their weapons and equipment are as backward as ever, and we have a great geographical advantage from a high position. It is impossible for the other party to defeat us in a short time!"

"What the commander said is very true!"

"Humph!"

Yamazaki Jihei sneered and said: "Now take the time to rest well! We will still counterattack when the time comes! If this battle is successful, then our Yamazaki Battalion will definitely be famous throughout the Army Headquarters!"

...

Taiyuan.

Japanese Headquarters.

Chief of Staff Nanshan Hideyoshi quickly reported the matter of Lijiapo.

"Yoshi!"

Yoshio Shinozuka's eyes lit up immediately, and he looked at the map with surprise: "I didn't expect that Yamazaki-kun accidentally created such a great opportunity!"

"General!"

Hideyoshi Nanshan couldn't help but said excitedly: "In the past, this group of Eighth Route Army was as slippery as loaches. Every time we cleared them out, they would go deep into the mountains and forests. Even if we spent the most effort, we were helpless in the end. But this time, Yamazaki-kun was like a nail firmly embedded in their center, making them extremely uncomfortable. As long as we quickly reinforce, we will definitely be able to cooperate with each other!"

"That's right!"

Yoshio Shinozuka nodded, and was Sex said:

"Although our imperial army has been advancing rapidly towards the Eighth Route Army base during this period, those mud-legged people have begun to slip away again. If this continues, this mopping-up operation will probably be a big deal but little success."

"Now we have finally got such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, we must not miss it!"

"Send a telegram to the Yamazaki Battalion now! Order them to hold their positions at all costs and delay the Eighth Route Army as much as possible."

"At the same time, send a telegram to the Second, Fourth and Ninth Brigades to reinforce immediately, and make sure to get close to them as soon as possible! Completely annihilate this enemy!"

"Hai!"

Nanshan Hideyoshi immediately received the order.

...

The battle was going on frantically.

However, the process was extremely unsuccessful.

The Yamazaki Battalion neither charged nor counterattacked. They relied on their own powerful firepower and the geographical advantage of being high above to continuously hold their positions.

Although the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army were fearless, they lacked heavy firepower after all, and even had only one or two mortars, so they had no way to deal with the devils.

They launched several strong attacks in succession, but were eventually beaten back.

This made the other troops who got the news indignant.

A mere brigade of devils?

How dare they come here to run wild?

How could a soldier tolerate this!

It was only less than half a day.

There were nearly seven or eight Eighth Route Army troops still in the vicinity. Although most of them had to stand by to assist in defense on the periphery, everyone wanted to go on the field in person.

"Hurry! Hurry up!"

At this time, Li Yunlong was still on his way back. He stood on a small earthen slope and shouted loudly: "The little Japanese have already rushed into our hinterland! If we go later, our New 1st Regiment may not even have a sip of soup! Hurry up!"

"Captain!"

Zhang Dabiao came to his side and frowned: "I heard that the combat effectiveness of these little Japanese is not weak! Just now, the news came from the front that the 772nd Regiment has been attacking for several times but failed to take it down!"

"Can Cheng the blind man compare with me?

Li Yunlong blew his beard and glared at me when he heard this, and said with disdain: "When he joined the army, I was stillDid you teach him how to shoot? With his stupid command style, it would be a miracle if he could force his way through!"

"You mean--"

"The brigade commander will be replaced sooner or later!"

Li Yunlong was very confident about this.

Zhang Dabiao said: "Captain! If you are so confident, you don't have to worry too much! In this brigade, our New 1st Regiment has the strongest combat power. Since the 772nd Regiment can't take it down, the brigade commander will definitely let us go!"

"If it was in the past, it would definitely be like this, but--"

"But what?"

"I'm worried about that kid Ding Wei now."

"Yes!"

Zhang Dabiao suddenly came to his senses.

Just a few days ago.

The 28th Regiment obtained a large number of military equipment and even formed its own assault platoon.

With this firepower.

I'm afraid it's rare in the entire brigade!

"Humph! "

Li Yunlong was naturally very dissatisfied with this, and said in a deep voice: "Ding Wei was so arrogant a few days ago, and this time he must want to grab the main attack position! If he dares to compete with me, I will report it to the brigade commander! Yes, I will report it! Ding Wei actually sold our Eighth Route Army soldiers to the bandits, let's see if he can still be arrogant?"

"Captain, you--"

Zhang Dabiao was sweating for a while when he heard it.

This captain of ours is really not a human being!

After all, we are brothers who have carried the big pot and walked through the grassland together, but he turned around and wanted to report him!

Besides--

I don't know who was thinking about selling me a few days ago?

"What are you looking at!"

Li Yunlong glared at Zhang Dabiao who was thinking about it, and said angrily: "Why don't you hurry up? If our new regiment really can't even get a sip of soup, then see how I will deal with you! "

"Yes, yes, Commander!"

Zhang Dabiao hurriedly accepted the order helplessly.

Of course.

While the Eighth Route Army rushed to Lijiapo, the Japanese also made a lot of noise.

The second, fourth and ninth brigades advanced rapidly towards Lijiapo from different directions. Although their journey was much longer, their marching speed was not slow at all.

It was only half a day's work.

The situation in the whole Jinzhong changed suddenly, and all the situations were unfolding around Lijiapo.

At the same time.

All kinds of news were quickly transmitted to Heiyun Village.
