In the city of Miyang, the brigade headquarters of the 39th Brigade of the 20th Division of the Japanese Army was set up in the city.

Because Li Yunlong led his troops to fight in the southern region of Jin Province at this time, the Japanese army in Miyang was also on guard.

Piyang County is located south of Tianjingguan, east of Qinghua Town, and on the north bank of the Yellow River. Take the southwest direction from Miyang, until you reach the bank of the Yellow River, and the opposite side is the Mengjin Ferry.

The Mengjin ferry port continues to go straight along the southwest road to reach Luoyang City. Therefore, the strategic location of Miyang is still very important.

At this time, in the city of Miyang, Major General Sekihara Roku, the commander of the 39th Brigade of the Japanese Army, and Kentaro Kitada, the chief of staff of his brigade, were looking at each other in the brigade headquarters, with a look of surprise in their eyes.

"Your Excellency, it can't be a mistake, right? Your Excellency Commander, has you found His Royal Highness Prince Hatohiko? But how could His Royal Highness be beheaded by Li Yunlong? How can it be? Kitada Kentaro Osa said in disbelief.

Receiving an urgent telegram from the military headquarters of the First Army, Kitada Kentaro was very surprised and surprised. You know, Hatohiko Asakanomiya is the uncle of His Majesty the Emperor! Was he killed by Li Yunlong like this?

Guan Yuanliu frowned, and then said with a wry smile: "This is sent by His Excellency Commander Shinozuka to send a report, it is impossible to be wrong." Li Yunlong sent someone to hang the head of His Royal Highness the Prince on the gate tower of the southern city of Miyuan to show it in public, and many ordinary people had already seen it. The words on the big note are clearly written, and I estimate that the people of Jin Province will soon know all of them! This is a disgrace to our empire! ”。

"Your Excellency, what should we do now?"

Sekihara looked at the map in front of him and pondered carefully. The 77th Wing under the command of his 39th Brigade was completely lost, leaving only one 78th Wing, and the 77th Wing lost Licheng, Lucheng, Changzhi and other places before sending troops. Therefore, Guan Yuanliu now has no motivation to send troops north to search for Li Yunlong's department for Hatohiko of Asaka Palace. Well, it's the troops.

"Order all troops to be on increased alert and not to attack lightly. If there is no order from His Excellency the Commander, our 39th Brigade will hold its own station! Now, we only have one 78 Wing left in our hands, and there is also an infantry brigade directly under the brigade and other small units of arms, and the total strength is less than 5,000 people! Tell the troops to just hold the city! Guan Yuanliu knew at this time that one of his 77 Wing was wiped out, and it was already a loss of face.

At this time, there was no strength to send troops to encircle and suppress Li Yunlong's troops.

What's more, at the moment, Yoshio Shinozuka did not send his troops north to participate in the siege of Li Yunlong's troops who might be in the territory of Miyuan.

Kitada Kentaro nodded, the commander of his own brigade had considered it well, "Hai, Your Excellency General, I understand my humble position!" Then Kentaro Kitada conveyed Sekihara's order.

It's just that even if Sekihara Roku and Kitada Kentaro didn't want to meet Li Yunlong, at this time, Li Yunlong and the others had already led their troops to the south of the Taiyue Mountain Range, and the woods outside Miyang City in the southeast direction were already hidden.

At this time, the population of Miyang City was more than 100,000, which was considered a large city.

In the woods three miles outside the city of Xicheng, in the mountains and forests in the white snow, a team is a metaphor.

"Regiment Commander, the special combat team sent out to reconnoiter has returned!" Li Yunlong, Zhang Dabiao and others were discussing the battle to attack Miyang at this time, and at this time, a soldier reported to Li Yunlong in a low voice.

Li Yunlong immediately looked up, and saw that it was the soldiers of several special combat teams who Duan Peng personally led out to reconnoiter the enemy army in Miyang, who were hurrying towards his side from the west direction of Miyang. They are all good at reconnaissance, and Miyang is located on a traffic artery, so naturally it requires a special combat team with excellent skills.

I saw Duan Peng and the others hurriedly rushing to Li Yunlong to salute and report, and Li Yunlong motioned for Duan Peng and the others to come down and rest for a while.

Less than a minute later, Duan Peng reported: "Regiment Commander, the investigation is clear. At this time, the Japanese troops stationed in the city were a group of Japanese troops under the personal command of Sekihara Roku, and the strength of the troops stationed there, according to the intelligence information provided by some fellow villagers and the intelligence officers of our friendly forces in the city of Miyang, contacted us. The little devils in Miyang City are estimated to have less than two squadrons of troops, probably around five hundred. However, there is a regiment of puppet troops in the city, about 1,000 people. The total strength of the enemy army in the city at this time was about 1,500 people! ”。

"Two squadrons of Japanese troops, a regiment of puppet troops. In terms of troops, we don't have much advantage! Hearing this, Li Yunlong pointed to the map and said to Zhang Dabiao and the others.

At this time, Zhang Dabiao, the commander of the first battalion, asked Duan Peng: "Old Duan, how is the combat effectiveness of the puppet army?" Did you find out? ”。

"The puppet army is subordinate to the 225th Regiment of the 11th Brigade of the 21st Division of the Imperial Cooperative Army, and it previously belonged to the Miyang Security Regiment. The little devil attacked Miyang, and the head of the security regiment surrendered to the little devil without letting go of a single shot, what a shame! Combat effectiveness, you can imagine! Duan Peng despised the puppet military way. These puppet soldiers are actually very ruthless in beating their own people. It's just that for the new regiment, this more than 1,000 puppet army, with its current strength, it is not too much of a problem to wipe out all three strikes and five divisions by two.

He Yongjie, the commander of the fourth battalion on the side, also nodded, agreeing with Duan Peng's words of contempt. For He Yongjie, they had been fighting most of the puppet army before they were reorganized and joined the new regiment. These puppet armies are actually very bad, their combat effectiveness is actually not very good, and they are very life-saving.

Li Yunlong said at this time: "Damn, two squadrons of Japanese soldiers, it seems that we can catch a big fish!" By the way, in the brigade headquarters of the 39th Brigade of the Little Devil in the city, is the old devil Guan Yuanliu among them? ”。

"Yes, Captain! It's just that now it seems that Miyang City is under martial law! Entrances and exits are checked by little devils. We went into the city just now to investigate, if we weren't careful, maybe we would have been discovered by the Japanese puppet soldiers who checked the city gate! Duan Peng said solemnly.

Li Yunlong waved his hand and said, "Hmph! Later, let the enemy army in Miyang know that if you meet my new group, you will be on death row! ”。

"Commander, how to fight?" Zhang Dabiao knew that the attack on Miyang had been planned a long time ago. Fortunately, the combat effectiveness of the enemy army in Miyang is actually two Japanese squadrons, and the combat effectiveness of the puppet army of that regiment is negligible.

Li Yunlong pointed to the map and said: "According to the situation obtained by Duan Peng's investigation, the Japanese puppet army stationed in the direction of each city gate in Miyang at this time is about more than 300 people!" Moreover, the gates and heads of the city were strictly controlled, and light and heavy machine guns were also erected! As usual, concentrate your forces to attack the city from one of the city gates, and some of the men and horses feint to attack the other three city gates! ”。

"Yes, Captain!" Everyone nodded when they heard this, it is indeed easier to fight like this. Otherwise, if you attack from all sides, you will share the troops, and when the time comes, it will be troublesome for Sekihara Roku in the city to react.
