"No." Okamura Yasuji shook his head and said, "Miyono, you would be wrong if you think so."

"Nani?" Miyano said in surprise, "Are you wrong thinking this? Please help me solve your doubts."

Okamura Yanji hid in the triangle's eyes behind the glasses, and said in a deep voice: "If I'm not mistaken, this should be a death sentence!"

"If you put it to death, you will live?" Miyano said, "How do you say this?"

Okamura Yasuji said: "Because the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army is actually very clear that they now have a large amount of heavy equipment and cannot walk fast at all. They can only march fifty kilometers a day at most!"

"If you carry other captured military supplies, it will be even slower!"

"And the supplies that can be taken away are actually very small, less than one ten!"

"So in this case, it would be useless even if they wiped out the 9th Brigade, which is closest to."

"Because the 3rd Brigade and the 41st Division can still catch up quickly and entangle the Eighth Route Army."

"Competitioning for highway motor power, the Eighth Route Army will never be as good as the Imperial Army, because the Imperial Army has more trucks."

"At this time, the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army had only two options, either throw away all the heavy equipment and seized supplies, escape from the small road, or defend the death to fight the imperial army!"

Miyano Daoichi said: "The Eighth Route Army will definitely choose to escape from the small path, right?"

Okamura Yasuji said: "In this way, they will lose all the heavy equipment and seized materials. The heavy equipment and seized materials they finally got will be intact and return to the hands of the Imperial Army."

"Because of this, the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army would never make this choice, which is not in line with the style of the Communist Party!"

Miyano Daichi said: "The 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army really dares to fight the Imperial Army in a decisive battle? In this case, when the 8th Brigade, the 26th Division and the 110th Division arrive, they will not even be able to break through separately."

"At that time, not only will the entire 386th Brigade be destroyed, but will all their heavy equipment and seized materials still return to the hands of the Imperial Army?"

"So they don't choose either!" Okamura Yanji said in a deep voice, "They chose to defend Taiyuan!"

"Defend Taiyuan to the death?" Miyano said, "If you fight to defend the city, the defense will indeed have a great advantage."

Okamura Yasuji said: "For the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army, the heavy equipment seized is destined to be unavailable, so it is better to use it to defend the city and maximize their effectiveness to kill as much as possible in the Imperial Army."

"In this case, there may be a chance to severely damage the First Army and find an opportunity to rush out."

"More importantly, if you defend Taiyuan, you will have a chance to snatch away the supplies."

"Because in this way, they will have more time to mobilize civilians and transport supplies."

"So that's it!" Miyao said sternly, "The 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army is really ambitious!"

"They want to transport away all the supplies, and to allow the seized heavy equipment to perform as much as possible before it is destroyed, so as to kill and injure the Imperial Army as much as possible!"

"This is really..."

Speaking of this, Miyano Dao suddenly stopped.

He found that he could not find a suitable adjective to describe it.

"This is to put it to death and then live." Okamura Yasuji said, "When all the heavy equipment is almost damaged, and when the Imperial Army suffers heavy casualties, concentrate all the firepower and open the gap to break through!"

"However, this is just wishful thinking from the 386th Brigade after all."

"Since they want to defend Taiyuan to the end, just defend it to the end."

"We need to see if they can finally damage the Imperial Army and break through."

"Also, let's see if they can snatch the supplies away?"

Speaking of this, Okamura Yasuji shouted again: "Order the 3rd Air Force Flight Regiment of the Aviation Corps immediately dispatched attack aircraft from Datong, Zhengding, Linfen, Handan and other airports to bomb the frontier positions of the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army, and cooperated with the 3rd Brigade and the 41st Division to launch an attack from the Zhengtai Line and Taichang Highway."

"At the same time, bombing the Eighth Route Army's transport team was carried out, delaying the transfer of materials."

"Special reminder to avoid cities and major traffic roads during the bombing process."

"Another order, the 26th Division will send a cavalry corps to encircle Gujiao County from Anhua and intercept the Eighth Route Army Transportation Team."

"Another order, the 41st Division sent the 41st cavalry regiment to Gujiao County from Qingxu County to intercept the Eighth Route Army Transportation Team in conjunction with the 26th cavalry regiment!"

"Hayi!"

...

Changning Town.

The vanguard of the 41st Division has appeared in the vision of the new regiment.

The vanguard of the 41st Division of the Japanese Army was the 3rd Detachment of the First Army's direct tanks, which had more than 30 Type 95 light tanks, or Dou tanks, and more than 10 Vix armored vehicles.

There is also an infantry brigade of the 237th Regiment to cooperate in combat.

Ding Wei lay on the front-line observation post and looked through the telescope. He saw that the Japanese tanks were painted with lime on the Chinese characters "Specially attacking the 386th Brigade Independent Regiment".

Seeing this, Ding Wei was a little angry.

"Damn, you look down on me." Ding Wei said angrily, "In the eyes of the Japanese, there is only Lao Li's independent group, and there is no new group!"

Qiu Debiao was also a little dissatisfied: "That's right, the Japanese in the 41st Division are all blind."

Ding Wei said: "After the Japanese launch an attack later, don't rush to open fire. Put them closer. Use the moor bottle mentioned by Staff Wang to deal with them, and give them a ruthless one!"

"Dare to underestimate our new group, it's a big deal!"

"Okay." Qiu Debiao quickly sent an order.

After receiving Ding Wei's order, the soldiers closed their guns and insurance.

...

Less than a quarter of an hour after preparing, the Japanese began the first wave of attacks.

Due to the limitations of the terrain, only four tanks can be deployed on the front.

Therefore, the Japanese have not had much force, only two Type 95 light tanks and two Vix armored vehicles.

More than fifty Japanese infantry were divided into four groups, following four tanks and armored vehicles, and rushed towards the defensive position of the new regiment.

The tracks rolled and the dust was flying.

In a blink of an eye, the Japanese tanks were less than 50 meters away from the frontier positions of the New Regiment.

At this moment, dozens of moor bottles were suddenly thrown out from the shelter on both sides of the highway.

These molten bottles are made of butter-socked wine bottles, which contain Fenjiu and gasoline.

As soon as these dozens of moor bottles hit the tank body, they broke into pieces. Then the mixture of Fenjiu and gasoline in the bottle immediately splashed and attached to the tank wall and burned.

In the blink of an eye, two tanks and two armored vehicles were swallowed by the flames.

The Japanese infantry following up rushed up to try to put out the fire, but didn't know what to do?

The armor of the Type 95 light tank and the Vicks armored vehicle were very thin, and the metal was a good fuse. Under the scorching fire, the carriage quickly began to heat up and turned into a high-temperature furnace.
