At the headquarters of the Japanese division in Laiyuan City, a telegram interrupted the division commander's arrangement.

"Sir, the Icheon Wing is in an emergency, they are being attacked by the main force of the garrison." The Chief of Staff hurriedly walked in and reported.

"This can't be?" The division commander shook his head and vetoed.

"The main force of the garrison regiment is obviously in the mountains, and it killed one and a half brigades of the Nakatani Wing during the day and last night yesterday, why did it run to the Icheon Wing now."

"Could it be that they are mistaken?"

The chief of staff shook his head and replied, "Probably not." ”

"This is a telegram just sent by Icheon Daisa: the battle lasted for half an hour, the garrison regiment dispatched more than 2,000 people, as well as mountain artillery and heavy mortars to participate in the battle, the artillery fire was very fierce, and even fought an artillery battle with the Icheon Wing, and the air defense units that had not shown up for several days also participated in the battle."

"They hurriedly retreated after the aviation troops arrived at the battlefield, and the Icheon Wing suffered nearly 400 casualties throughout the battle."

The Eighth Route Army, which had artillery to participate in the battle, was certainly the main force, and this was the experience summed up by the Japanese army and the Eighth Route Army in a long period of battle.

The division commander's brows quickly furrowed, staring at the map and asking, "Where is the battlefield?" ”

"Here!" The chief of staff replied, pointing to the map.

"It's 35 kilometers from where the Midvale United team was attacked last night."

"I see!" The division commander suddenly realized and analyzed.

"First eat most of the infantry brigade of the Midvale Wing through a night attack. Then the hasty march left the mountain and rushed to the vicinity of the Icheon Wing. At that time, all of us thought that they were still in the mountains, and a sudden attack would catch the Icheon United by surprise. ”

"What a cunning Eighth Route Army."

When the chief of staff heard this, he directly showed a shocked expression of disbelief.

"How is this possible, are these Eighth Route Army all iron-clad?"

"Fighting continuously, running for nearly forty kilometers over a long distance, and immediately going into battle again, don't they all need to rest?"

The division commander was very sure of his judgment, thought for a moment and replied: "Don't forget, it was the Eighth Route Army that fought against us, and their fighting will was very strong, even better than that of the Imperial Army. About this, they have proven to us many times with battles. ”

The chief of staff was finally convinced, and immediately reminded: "Sir, if it is the main force of the garrison regiment that attacks the Icheon Wing, and they really leave the mountain, will it be safe in the mountain, and will the Nakatani Wing not need to retreat." ”

The division commander immediately replied: "Yes, they really don't need to retreat. ”

"There are still nearly 3,000 people in the entire Midvalley Wing, and once the main force of the garrison is gone, the remaining guard troops will not be able to threaten them at all."

"Sir, good news......" The intelligence staff officer suddenly barged in, looking excited.

"There was a big explosion in the mountain just now, the sound was so loud that it could be heard from more than ten kilometers away, and the black smoke rising up was hundreds of meters high."

"We judged that the explosion was from the garrison regiment arsenal."

The division commander's eyes became hot at that time.

The destruction of the garrison arsenal is one of the two major tasks of the entire division, and to a certain extent, it is more important than the elimination of the garrison.

The biggest difficulty in completing this task is to find him in the vast mountains

Because the Eighth Route Army will definitely not expose the arsenal easily, when the imperial army enters the mountains to search, they will definitely stop it at all costs.

It's like yesterday day and night, three consecutive battles to kill one and a half brigades of the Midtani United.

If the troops really figured out the specific location of the arsenal in the mountains, then the search would have been automatically passed.

What the Imperial Army needs to do is to concentrate the main force and kill directly at the arsenal.

In that case, the cost to the troops would be reduced by more than half.

"Order the Midvale United to stand by and suspend the retreat." The division commander, who figured it all out, no longer hesitated and ordered decisively.

"Contact the aviation corps, and immediately send planes to the explosion site to reconnoiter and determine whether it is a garrison regiment arsenal."

"If so, the Midvale Wing will go right away, kill it at all costs, and destroy the garrison before it can move the arsenal."

"If not, the Middle Valley Wing also returned, and with the reinforcement of the aviation troops, continued to search the garrison regiment arsenal, as well as the field hospital and logistics agencies they hid in the mountains...... This time, I'm going to wipe out the garrison. ”

"In addition, send a telegram to the Icheon United, and bite me to kill the main force of the garrison that attacked them just now."

"They must be very tired from fighting continuously and then running for dozens of kilometers over long distances."

"If the troops chase them and fight, they will definitely be able to annihilate them completely."

Half an hour later, the chief of staff hurriedly replied with a smile on his face.

"Sir, you're right."

"Aviation emergency telegram: They judged: there is an eighty percent chance that the explosion point is the garrison regiment arsenal."

"When the plane arrived at the explosion site, many Eighth Route Army troops were rescuing equipment and the wounded at the explosion site."

"Through low-altitude reconnaissance, it was found that the explosion point was blown out of a large pit with a depth of more than five meters, and the Eighth Route Army was digging equipment in the pit, and it must have been an accident during the production of the arsenal, which blew up the air-raid shelter where they were hiding." ”

"Here's where it is." The chief of staff drew a circle on the map.

"The mountains here are high and the forests are deep, and there are a lot of cliffs, which is very conducive to the Eighth Route Army to use the terrain to build the bomb shelters needed for the arsenal. They hide in bomb shelters to produce weapons and ammunition, and even if we send planes to bomb them, we can't hurt them. ”

"Also, the terrain here is dangerous, and you can only enter through these mountain passes."

"As long as you send troops to guard these mountain passes, the imperial army will not want to kill them, it is definitely a good place for a man to be a man."

The division commander's eyes became hotter and hotter, and he stared at the map for two minutes before giving orders.

"The Middle Valley Wing is here, the straight-line distance from the garrison regiment arsenal is fifteen kilometers, if you go through the mountain road, you will definitely be able to kill it here tomorrow morning, and then launch an attack, and you will definitely be able to destroy the arsenal before dark tomorrow."

"Order the Midvale Wing to set off now, march here in a hurry, and destroy the garrison arsenal at all costs."

"The aviation continued to attack, harassing and bombing the garrison regiment's arsenal site to prevent them from moving, and the Midvale Wing was killed and pounced."

The garrison regiment was temporarily stationed, and the observation post of the Zhonggu Wing rushed in like a wind, and when he saw Li Hao, he reported with a worried face.

"Commander, the little devil is back again, and he marched in a hurry to kill him in the southeast direction."

Hong Linfeng replied with a long sigh of relief: "The devil has finally been fooled." ”

"Regiment commander, how do we fight next, do you want to lead the troops to kill them now, lest they run away again."

Li Hao shook his head and replied: "No hurry, this time we have to change our playing style." ”

"The previous battle was too fast-paced, fought too hard, and then scared them into a hasty retreat."

"If we scare them any longer, then all our efforts will be in vain."

"The mobile battalion goes first, greet them well with mines, slow down their march, and kill some little devils by the way."

"The main force will move again after dark, and I will not be afraid to scare them when the time comes."

"It's been two days to go into the mountains, and it's definitely going to take two days to go out of the mountains, so long enough for us to kill them on their way out of the mountains.
