"Good! Order all the troops to assemble and prepare for the afternoon departure! Confidentiality is observed! Report our plan to Admiral Tada, and I reckon Admiral Tada will agree with our plan! Kenichi Muto said with a laugh, his tone frivolous.

Yamada Haoton said: "Haiyi, Your Excellency the division commander!" Immediately go and do it. ”。

"Hmm!"

Soon, Kenichi Muto's plan was quickly delivered to Jun Tada.

"Fujimoto-kun, what do you think? Kenichi Muto plans to divide his troops into Hengshan in two ways! This plan is a bit hasty! Tada Jun somewhat disagreed with Kenichi Muto's suggestion.

Haruki Fujimoto stood in front of Tada Jun, and said after a pause: "Your Excellency, Commander, judging from the plan reported by Kenichi Muto, dividing the troops and marching can indeed ensure to a large extent that the 2nd Division can suddenly kill around their base area while the new regiment still knows the true purpose of the 2nd Division. Now Li Yunlong's new regiment is very coquettish because it has eaten the 6th Division, and at this time, the plan to divide troops into Hengshan is actually feasible. ”。

Tada Jun didn't respond immediately, just thought about it in silence.

According to the latest intelligence information collected by the Japanese intelligence organs, Li Yunlong was the main force in the battle of the 6th Division ambushed at Pingxingguan, and the other 28th Division of the Eighth Route Army and the two independent regiments assisted and cooperated, totaling more than 14,000 elite troops of the Eighth Route Army set up an ambush in the Qiaogou Gorge east of Pingxingguan, and completely annihilated the headquarters of the 6th Division.

However, it can also be seen that the most important thing about the destruction of the 6th Division was the decision made by Li Yunlong.

Therefore, both Hirohito and Tada were very jealous of the development of the new regiment's troops, and could not allow the new regiment time to develop the success of the expansion of the army.

The swift entry of the 2nd Division was very important.

Thinking of the fierce combat strength of the new regiment, once there is a strength of one or two thousand troops, the pressure on the first army of the Japanese army in Jin Province will gradually increase. What's more, Tada Jun also knew that due to the development of the war, the conscription in the country was already very severe.

"Agree with Kenichi Muto's plan, tell Kenichi Muto, and report the plan to Naosaburo Okabe and the military headquarters of the First Army! Even if the 2nd Division makes changes, it needs to send a report to Naosaburo Okabe, otherwise, what will the 2nd Division do? Acting without permission? ”

Tada Jun waved his hand and said to Haruki Fujimoto, the coquettishness of the 2nd Division needs to be suppressed by Naosaburo Okabe, otherwise, even the North China Front Command will be reprimanded by the Emperor if something happens.

This is also Tada Jun's keenness, lest Kenichi Muto have an accident at the command post headquarters, and the front army headquarters knows about it and does not inform Okabe Naosaburo, and in the end, Tada Jun's impression in Hirohito's mind will also be in trouble.

"Hay, Your Excellency Commander, I understand my humble duties."

Haruki Fujimoto looked at the corner of Tada-kun's mouth and sneered slightly, and he also knew what Tada-jun meant.

And Tada Jun's reply made Ken Muto, who was waiting for the news, speechless, it seems that they are all old guys!

"Order the troops to pedal, Yamada-kun, you take the two wings of the 3rd Brigade and act according to the plan!" On the platform of the military railway station, after Kenichi Muto received a direct telephone order from Haruki Fujimoto, he hung up the phone and said to Hiroshi Yamada, the chief of staff of the division on the side.

Yamada Hao paused heavily and said, "Yes, Your Excellency the division commander, I know what to do." ”。

"Yo Xi, then let's go, order the troops to board the car!" Snowflakes kept falling around the train station, and Kenichi Muto, who looked at it for a while, waved his hand and said to Hiroshi Yamada.

Hiroshi Yamada nodded, and then boarded the train with the Japanese troops of the 3rd Brigade of the 2nd Division, and the train headed south along the railway towards Wangdu.

Kenichi Muto, on the other hand, boarded the train with the 15th Brigade under the jurisdiction of the 2nd Division and other affiliated troops, went north from Beiping, crossed Juyong Pass and Nankou, and arrived at Xuanhua, and secretly marched west along the Sangqian River on foot.

..........

Just when the 2nd Division of the Japanese Army secretly marched into Jin Province from the north and south of Beiping and was preparing to attack Hengshan, there were still intelligence agents of the Eighth Route Army lurking in the area of Beiping City.

Because the 2nd Division of the Japanese Army itself is one of the most capable troops in the Japanese State, it has always been the Japanese army unit that the Eighth Route Army, the National Army and other parties focus on.

And the 2nd Division entered the customs, although the train it took when entering the customs was tightly sealed, but the name to the outside world was to go south to Jinling. Although he entered the customs secretly, he was still noticed by intelligence officers from the Eighth Route Army and the National Army.

In particular, the Eighth Route Army, because of its proximity to Hebei Province and its proximity to Hebei Province, is not far from Beiping, which is the focus of the intelligence personnel of the Eighth Route Army.

The division of the 2nd Division at the railway station made it difficult to keep it completely secret.

"The 2nd Division of the little devil has been divided, you report to the headquarters immediately! Remind the new regiment that the 2nd Division of the Devil has divided its troops into two routes and went straight to the Hengshan base area, please ask the new regiment to immediately enter combat preparations! lest you be caught off guard by a rush attack by the 2nd Division. In Beiping City, in an alley across two streets opposite the gate of the North China Front Headquarters of the Japanese Army, the longest-standing intelligence officer of the Eighth Route Army, who was lurking in the headquarters of the North China Front Army, said in a low voice, regardless of the danger of exposure.

The intelligence officer who contacted the one-line was obviously very surprised, "Didn't the 2nd Division go south to Jinling, preparing to rest for a week and then march west along the Jiangxi to join Okamura Ninji's 11th Army to participate in the Wuhan operation?" How so? ”

"According to the information I have received, the 2nd Division was ordered by Emperor Hirohito to directly order the 2nd Division to enter the customs and deal with the headquarters of the new 1st Regiment. I can't be out for a long time, so you should send a report to the headquarters immediately and inform me of this information! I'm leaving! The top-secret intelligence officer lurking in the headquarters of the Devil's North China Front said in a slight whisper.

"Okay, I see, stay safe! There is not much information during this time, so there is no need to come out! The cavalry personnel of the Eighth Route Army who responded said in a low voice.

"Good! I'm leaving, send out the information of the 2nd Division as soon as possible! ”

The intelligence agents of the North China Front Headquarters nodded slightly, and then walked out of the joint alley with a normal posture of leaving no trace.

The intelligence personnel of the Eighth Route Army quickly withdrew to their hidden stronghold houses, and after taking out a small radio station, the sound of ticking and ticking sounded, and then the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army quickly received a secret telegram sent back by the intelligence officers in Beiping.

Shaanxi Province, the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army.

"Transfer the information to the 386 Brigade and let them immediately inform the new regiment and get ready! By the way, in the name of the headquarters, send a commendation telegram directly to the new regiment! ate Gu Shoufu's 6th Division, Li Yunlong, this kid is good! The head of the headquarters said with a laugh, but the new regiment is going to deal with the devil's 2nd Division again, and the situation is not optimistic.

"Yes, Chief!" The staff officer of the headquarters stood up and saluted, and then hurried away to deliver the report.
