Taiyuan, the first Japanese army headquarters.

The combat plan of No. A has been fully launched, and the brigades of the divisions and brigades participating in the battle are proceeding in an orderly manner according to the established plan. As the commander, Yoshio Shinozuka has become leisurely.

Two months later, Yoshio Shinozuka finally had time to play Go again.

The person who played against Yoshio Shinozuka was also his old chess friend Yamamoto Ichiki.

Among the four corners and six routes of the No. A combat plan, only Yamamoto's special agent team has not been dispatched yet.

The reason is very simple. Since the last beheading of Chenjiayu, the exact location of the Eighth Route Army headquarters has been lost.

Therefore, it is necessary to wait until the intelligence department or front-line troops determine the approximate location of the Eighth Route Army headquarters again before the Yamamoto special agent team will be dispatched again.

"Bang!" Yoshio Shinozuka slapped a white piece in the middle of the chessboard and said proudly, "Yamamoto, your big dragon is already doomed."

Yamamoto Ichiki said: "That may not be."

After saying that, Yamamoto Kazuki shot a heavy shot of a dark spot on the chessboard.

Yoshio Shinozuka said: "There will always be exhausted when the robbery is exhausted. When the robbery is exhausted, you will have no way to go."

Just as he was playing chess, the adjutant, Toshi Nakamura, walked in and handed a telegram to Yoshio Shinozuka.

Seeing that Yoshio Shinozuka had not made any sound after reading the telegram for a long time, Yamamoto Ichiki asked, "General, whose telegram?"

"The telegram just sent by the 9th Brigade said that the Eighth Route Army Independent Regiment was preparing to break through the frontier of Xixiang Prefecture." Yoshio Shinozuka handed over the telegram in his hand as he said.

"Nani?" Yamamoto Kazuki said in disbelief, "Break through head-on?"

"This is not the first time Li Yunlong did this." Shinozuka Yoshio said in a deep voice, "During the autumn sweep two years ago, Li Yunlong was still the commander of the new regiment. He defeated the Sakata United and led his troops to break through the front!"

Yamamoto Ichiki said: "The Sakata Federation actually had only two infantry brigades at that time, but the 9th Brigade not only had five infantry brigades, but also had a mountain artillery brigade. Its combat effectiveness is definitely not comparable to the Sakata Federation. It would be too arrogant if Li Yunlong dared to break through the front line if he was just a regiment of only one regiment?"

Yoshio Shinozuka said: "It is definitely impossible for a group to be."

Yamamoto Kazuki said: "General, what do you mean is that there is still the main force of the 386th Brigade behind the Independent Regiment?"

"There is no doubt that's it." Shinozuka Yoshio said, "And according to my judgment, the intention of the Eighth Route Army to force me to temporarily change the deployment and transfer one of the two sweeping troops to Xixiang Prefecture. In this way, the main force of the Eighth Route Army, which is in the blockade line, will have more room for movement."

Yamamoto Ichiki said: "General, the 386th Brigade is the strongest combat-capable brigade of the Eighth Route Army in Taiyue Bandit Area. It has four regiments under its jurisdiction, with a total force of more than 10,000! The 5 infantry brigades of the 9th Brigade are scattered on the defense line of more than 50 kilometers! So, if the 386th Brigade really attacks on a large scale, I am afraid the Imperial Army must be careful."

Yoshio Shinozuka said, "It's okay, I have confidence in the 9th Brigade."

Yamamoto Ichiki stopped persuading him because he was not very worried.

Because frontal combat and surprise attacks are different, the Eighth Route Army relies on the advantages of inside combat and uses the advantages of terrain to engage in surprise attacks. They are very good at fighting ambushing, but frontal offensive and defensive operations are the strengths of the Imperial Army. This time, the Eighth Route Army fought a frontal offensive and defensive battle with them, which was purely a search for death.

Yamamoto selectively forgot the Battle of Cangyunling.

...

On the road from Liao County to Xixiang County, the team of the Independence Regiment was moving forward in a mighty manner.

For the Eighth Route Army, it is rare to concentrate on marching on the road in broad daylight. The Eighth Route Army usually marches quietly at night.

Two Japanese attack aircraft were quickly attracted.

But after only diving once, I didn't dare to dive again for the second time.

Because the Japanese pilots discovered that the Eighth Route Army was very different from the Kuomintang army.

When the Kuomintang army was dived and fired by Japanese attack aircraft, its first reaction was to flee in all directions.

However, the Eighth Route Army's first reaction was to raise its gun and shoot densely at the sky. Facing the intensive shooting of thousands of rifles and dozens of machine guns from the ground, the Japanese pilots were also afraid.

After hovering in the air for a while, the Japanese attack plane returned helplessly.

Because it's getting dark, if you don't return, you won't be able to land.

...

Seeing two Japanese attack planes returning, Li Yunlong took the gun back into the holster and said loudly: "Tell me the order, and the whole regiment will continue to move forward!"

The order was passed down quickly and the team continued to move forward.

Guard Niu Dan scratched his head and asked, "Captain, why don't you march at night? Didn't you marche at night before? This way, you won't attract the Japanese's attention."

"What do you know?" Li Yunlong said, "We do this to attract the attention of the Japanese."

"Why is this?" Niu Dan even more confused, "Why should I attract the Japanese? If all the Japanese come to our independent group, the pressure will be too great."

Li Yunlong said: "We are under great pressure. The pressure on our headquarters and brothers who stay in the base area will be reduced, so we have plenty of room to move around. Do you understand?"

Niu Dan scratched her head and said, "Captain, is this called throwing a pawn to protect the car?"

Li Yunlong laughed and said, "Niudan, when did you learn to lose your book bag when you are a dog? It is right to protect the car, and it may not be necessary to throw away the pawn. If the Japanese want to eat the pawn of our Independent Group, they may still lack good teeth!"

While speaking, a cavalry rushed back from the front to report: "The regiment commander, the cavalry battalion encountered a small group of Japanese cavalry in Tengtou Village. After destroying most of them, he let go of a small part of them according to the regiment commander's instructions."

"I understand." Li Yunlong shouted, "Tell Sun Desheng and continue to move towards Xixiang County!"

"Yes!" The cavalry correspondent saluted Li Yunlong on the back of the horse, turned around and ran away.

At this time, Zhao Gang rode his army and said to Li Yunlong: "Old Li, are we walking too fast? The distance between us and the main force of the brigade has reached more than 20 miles."

"What's the quick?" Li Yunlong said snorting, "Since the brigade commander has chosen our independent regiment to play the vanguard, then our independent regiment should be like a vanguard! I can't wait until the brigade commander has arrived in Xixiang County, and then point at our old Li's nose and say, Li Yunlong, what are you doing? I haven't defeated the 9th Brigade for such a long time?"

Zhao Gang said in a lost voice: "Old Li, what do you mean? Are you planning to do it alone?"

Zhao Gang really didn't expect this. He originally thought he would concentrate the main force of the 386th Brigade to defeat the 9th Brigade head-on, but he didn't expect that Li Yunlong was going to do it alone. You are simply messing around.
