....................................

On the morning of December 7th, the northern suburbs of Taiyuan.

The vanguard of the 136th Division, the nearly 3,000 cavalry regiment, was less than ten kilometers away from Taiyuan City. It started to gallop all the way yesterday afternoon and ran for nearly a hundred kilometers long. It took a few hours to rest at night. As soon as the sky was dawn, it ran for two hours under the leadership of the regiment commander. Now it has finally reached the suburbs of Taiyuan.

The commander of the cavalry regiment Sun Chuanzhi saw that everyone had not had breakfast yet and was attacking Taiyuan later, which might be a fierce battle, so he sent an order and everyone rested on the spot.

Hearing the order of the regiment commander, the soldiers dismounted one after another, sat on the ground in groups of three or five, took out the dry food they carried with them, and started to eat it. A few soldiers led the war horses to the nearby area to find water sources, give the horses water and feed the war horses.

Just as the soldiers were full, sitting or half-lying to chat together, a soldier hurriedly ran to Sun Chuanzhi to report that the outer observation post found a large Japanese stronghold two kilometers ahead.

After listening to the warrior's report, Sun Chuanzhi took out a map from his body and spread it on the ground, called several cavalry battalion commanders over, and everyone was preparing to hold a short meeting.

Before coming to Taiyuan, Zhang Yunfei had already told everyone about the deployment of Japanese troops in Taiyuan. After several months of intelligence spying by special forces in Taiyuan, the distribution of Japanese troops was clearly touched.

The Japanese stronghold mentioned by the cavalry soldiers just now is one of the three large strongholds outside Taiyuan. There are more than a dozen small strongholds outside Taiyuan. Each stronghold is stationed by dozens of Japanese and a small number of puppet troops. There are three large strongholds. These three strongholds are built with guardhouses and solid bunkers, and at least one squadron of Japanese devils are stationed in it.

Zhang Yunfei's combat mission to the cavalry regiment was to remove all the small strongholds outside Taiyuan before the arrival of the large force. The three large strongholds were because they had solid bunkers and the cavalry regiment lacked heavy weapons to attack. These three strongholds were solved after the large force arrived.

The cavalry soldiers rested on the spot for an hour, and the meeting between Sun Chuanzhi and several battalion commanders had already been held. Look at their own tables, it was already ten o'clock in the morning, and the large troops would arrive one after another in a few hours. The cavalry regiment must drop all the Japanese strongholds within two or three hours.

Sun Chuanzhi turned over and rode his own war horse and said to the battalion commanders next to him: "Order the troops to gather, the first battalion and regiment headquarters assaulted from the front, the second battalion attacked from the left, and the third battalion attacked from the right, and quickly swept away all strongholds outside Taiyuan City. Remember, you must make full use of the mobility of the cavalry. When you encounter a large Japanese, don't be fond of fighting, and get rid of it quickly. Two hours later, it is almost eleven o'clock, everyone will gather here. Do you understand?"

"I understand, the regiment commander is relieved and guaranteed to complete the task." Several battalion commanders shouted loudly in unison.

After saying that, Sun Chuanzhi drove the war horses and ran forward quickly. The soldiers followed one after another. The team of thousands of people was in a huge momentum and moved forward quickly along the flat wilderness. He didn't run far. Under the leadership of several battalion commanders, the team was divided into three streams of people and headed forward.

Sun Chuanzhi's cavalry unit and the first battalion of nearly a thousand cavalrymen walked forward around the large stronghold in front and galloped towards the nearby small stronghold. Because it was a flat wilderness, the Japanese sentries in the large stronghold discovered nearly a thousand cavalry led by Chen Hu, but the Eighth Route Cavalry on the opposite side did not mean to attack their stronghold, but bypassed from a distance, and it seemed that they were heading towards the Xinzhuang stronghold not far away.

The Japanese sentry hurriedly went down the observation post of the guardhouse and hurriedly reported the enemy situation to the highest commander of their stronghold, a Japanese master. After listening to the Japanese master's report, the Japanese master quickly ordered the troops to be alert, and personally captured the phone number in the stronghold and reported to the command center in Taiyuan City.

The nearly a thousand cavalry led by Sun Chuanzhi reached the Japanese Xinzhuang stronghold in just twenty minutes. The Japanese inside the stronghold saw the Eighth Route Army cavalry rushing from afar.

The Japanese looked at their number and found that there was less than one team, with only five or six machine guns. The Xinzhuang stronghold was not a cement fortification, and the only two-story guardhouse was made of red bricks and lime.

The Japanese Captain who was in charge of the defense here was full of despair and horror. It seemed that he was going to explain it here today. Thinking of this, the Japanese Captain hurriedly grabbed the phone in a panic, called the command center in Taiyuan City, and called for support.

After making the call, the Japanese captain personally picked up a crooked machine gun, passed the shooting hole in the guardhouse and started shooting at the cavalry group soldiers hundreds of meters away. Two or three cavalry soldiers running in front were immediately shot and died.

But seeing that the distance was getting closer, the soldiers of the cavalry regiment fired at the Japanese guardhouse shooting holes. The Japanese captain had just finished firing more than a dozen bullets, but his head was blown out by the fierce firepower of the cavalry regiment soldiers, and the red and white flowed all over the ground.

A Japanese deputy shooter next to him saw that the Japanese captain was killed, and he was fearlessly holding a crooked machine gun to prepare for shooting. Before he could pull the trigger, he was hit into a sieve by several bullets.

The firepower of the Eighth Route Army cavalry soldiers was too strong. The Japanese's machine guns could not exert their due power at all, let alone the rest of the Type 38 rifles.

At a distance of several hundred meters, the soldiers of the cavalry regiment arrived instantly and approached the Japanese stronghold. The soldiers took out grenades, pulled out the fuse, and threw the grenades with blue smoke into the Japanese guardhouse along the shooting hole.

A few dull explosions came from the guardhouse, and suddenly, the Japanese saw their Amaterasu.

Such a battle is not only performed here, but the soldiers of the Second and Third Battalions also experienced the same battle. The cavalry regiment lost more than a dozen Japanese strongholds in less than two hours at a slight cost, and hundreds of Japanese Japanese could only dream of returning to Japan.

In Taiyuan City, the Japanese Command.

Since the battle started two days ago, Yoshio Kozuka felt that life was not easy. The attack of the Jinsui Army in the south was smooth, and it has reached Pingyao. It has been nearly two days of fierce battle with the First Infantry Brigade. The First Brigade reported that after two days of fighting, nearly one-third of the casualties of the First Brigade had been killed or injured.

The 136th Division of the Eighth Route Army in the north was not restless. Since yesterday morning, it has launched violent shelling of the Xinkou position and broken through the first line of defense of the Xinkou position.

Could it be that the Eighth Route Army and the Jinsui Army had agreed, and did they want to be unfavorable to Taiyuan? A thought flashed through Yoshio Kozuka's mind. If this is the case, it would be a bad thing.

Just as Yoshio Kozuka was thinking about it, a Japanese correspondent quickly walked to Yoshio Kozuka and reported loudly: "Your Excellency Commander, I just received a call for help from many strongholds outside the city, and a large number of Eighth Route Army cavalry appeared outside the city."

After listening to the report of the correspondent soldier, an ominous feeling enveloped Yoshio Kozuka's heart. Could it be that the Eighth Route Army crossed the Xinkou position and came to Taiyuan? If this is the case, then Taiyuan is in danger. Currently, there are only more than 10,000 defenders in Taiyuan, only one infantry brigade.

Thinking of this, Yoshio Kozuka walked around the office uneasyly. The more he thought about it, the more he felt the situation was bad, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt the more annoyed. After a long time, he calmed down and said to the little ghost communication soldier next to him: "Hurry up and send a report to Peking. Taiyuan was attacked by Zhang Yunfei's troops of the Eighth Route Army, and requested reinforcements to speed up the marching speed and quickly support Taiyuan."

Before he could wait for the Japanese communication soldiers to stand at attention, Yoshio Kozuka waved to the Japanese communication again anxiously and said, "Hurry up, go right away."

The Japanese correspondent soldier didn't even come to Jing, so he immediately turned around and left Yoshio Kozuka's office and hurried to send the newspaper.
