On the surface, Major General Shibasaki obeyed the order of the commander of the Fujino Division and directly called back to do so. In fact, Major General Shibasaki had his own ideas, and he was arrogant and did not listen to those reminders and orders at all, and still did things according to his own ideas.

"Boom ......"

Less than five minutes after the order was given, a string of explosions reached his ears.

"The explosion came from the direction of the forward troops, immediately contact the forward troops, what happened?" Major General Shibasaki was very experienced in battle, and in the absence of other reports, he could judge the origin of the explosion at a glance!

Soon, the deputy rushed over with an incredible expression on his face.

"What's going on?" Major General Shibasaki asked, staring at his deputy.

"Landmines, the forward troops stepped on the mines buried on the road in advance by the Eighth Route Army, and they were also serial mines, 14 people were killed, and 5 people were lightly and seriously injured and lost their combat effectiveness!"

"Nani?" Major General Shibasaki was frightened by this result, and was stunned for a long time before reacting, and then asked with a look of disbelief.

"How is that possible? How could just a few mines, and even the home-made mines produced by the Eighth Route Army itself, cause us such a large number of casualties and directly lose more than one combat detachment of the Imperial Army? ”

The deputy hurriedly replied: "The power of the mines is not great, but these mines have been added by the Eighth Route Army with a large amount of gravel, and the power has more than tripled!" ”

"Preliminary judgment, this should be the work of the new group. This is an area occupied by the Imperial Army, and the road has always been very busy, with a large number of Imperial troops passing through every day and has never been attacked. The attack just now was clearly aimed at us! ”

"The new regiment of the Eighth Route Army is active in Linfen, they are really here!" Major General Shibasaki immediately thought of a reminder telegram that the commander of the division had just sent.

Then I thought of the order I had just given, and the explosion that still echoed in my ears was like a slap in the face, which made Major General Shibasaki's face red!

It took a long time for him to slowly calm down.

"The wounded stay, contact Taiyuan City, and ask them to send someone to take them back to Taiyuan City to recuperate!"

"The troops continue to advance, but, from now on, everyone must be on heightened alert. Reconnaissance troops, patrol troops along the way, to ensure that there are no Chinese within 500 meters of the perimeter of the troops! ”

"I don't want to hear any more about the casualties we suffered from the Eighth Route Army along the way!"

"Also, twenty mules and horses were drawn from the baggage brigade to reinforce the forward troops. If there are still mines on the road, detonate them directly with mules and horses! ”

After the order was issued, Major General Shibasaki, who had a serious face, slowly became murderous, frowning and muttering to himself: "New group, I will take what you gave me." When I arrive in Linfen, I will definitely pay for the blood debt, and let you taste my Shibasaki's methods! ”

The former enemy headquarters of the new 1st regiment, Commander Chen was established the day after the new regiment arrived, and the location was set in Dongping Village, where the Japanese army would definitely camp after entering the base area.

"The regiment commander, the commander, the direct team urgently called, they sent the situation of the devil!" Chief of Staff Zhong Chenggong walked in and reported.

"The direct team is worthy of being a direct team, and even the number of heavy machine guns equipped by the devil is clear!" After reading the telegram, Commander Chen couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Then analyzed: "The devils are equipped with a total of forty-five heavy machine guns, and it is certain from the number of heavy machine guns that there are three infantry brigades and one garrison brigade among the more than 8,000 devils!" ”

"Looking at the number of mortars and mountain artillery they are equipped with, it is certain that this infantry wing from Beiping is a reinforced wing, and the three subordinate brigades are all reinforced brigades, which are equipped with a heavy machine gun squadron and a mortar squadron!"

"One of the mountain artillery of the two brigades must belong to this reinforced wing, and the other is reinforced by the Japanese army in Taiyuan."

"In addition, this mixed brigade is also equipped with more than 300 cavalry, and its strength is not ordinarily strong!"

"Wang Ping, how are you going to fight! In addition, the brigade directly under the military region will come over this evening, and from now on, the brigade directly under your command will also be under your command, and I will be responsible for coordination! ”

After speaking, Commander Chen shifted his gaze to the invitation.

Staring at the sand table just made by the reconnaissance company in front of him, Wang Ping frowned and asked: "Chief of Staff, has the intelligence department figured out who the brigade commander of the mixed brigade is the devil, where he comes from, and whether he has rich combat experience~"

"Yes, the military region just forwarded it!" Zhong Chenggong pulled out a report from the document in his hand.

"Major General Shibasaki, the commander of the mixed brigade and regiment, was still the commander of the high-ranking major general brigade of the North China Front a few days ago, he was born in the Kwantung Army, and after being transferred to the North China Front, because of several big victories, his military rank was directly promoted to major general and became the commander of the high-ranking major general!"

"Also, because this Major General Shibasaki is fighting against the government army, although he has fought with us, he is all thinking about it. Therefore, he doesn't know much about our Eighth Route Army, let alone our new regiment! ”

"There are also rumors that as the only high-ranking major general wing captain of the North China Front, he is favored by Okamura Ningji, so he was very arrogant when he was in Beiping, and he didn't take our Eighth Route Army in his eyes at all!"

"Just be arrogant!" Wang Ping happily interrupted.

"The more arrogant he is, the more I like it, the faster he will die on the battlefield!"

"Wang Ping, don't take the enemy lightly!" Commander Chen reminded with a frown.

"can be a high captain of the Major General, and is valued by Okamura Ningji, even if Major General Shibasaki is arrogant, then he must have arrogant capital~ Needless to say, Okamura Ningji's ability is the most difficult opponent our Eighth Route Army has encountered in North China. can be valued by him, it can be seen that this Major General Shibasaki is an officer with real skills! ”

"Besides, he still has more than 8,000 devil elites and more than 3,000 puppet troops in his hands, this is the real opponent we have to deal with!"

Just as he was about to continue, a platoon commander of the communications company suddenly rushed in.

"Chief, the direct team is in an emergency!"

Zhong Chenggong took the telegram and only glanced at it, and his face became heavy.

"Regiment commander, the commander is right, this Major General Hamasaki is indeed a very difficult opponent!"

"Although he is very arrogant, he is very cautious, and when he was attacked by the direct team, he ordered the troops to strengthen their vigilance, so that the direct team could not find an opportunity to attack, so they could only sneak attack the alert and reconnaissance troops sent by the devils, and make a small fight!"

Wang Ping shook his head and replied: "It's okay to be cautious!" ”

"As long as he doesn't understand me, he doesn't know my new group!"

"Commander, the brigade directly under this battle will also participate in the battle, and it will most likely be a tough battle. The equipment of the brigade is okay, but the ammunition is definitely insufficient! ”

"You send a telegram to the brigade directly under you now, and ask them to report to the political commissar when they pass through the regimental headquarters, and give them additional ammunition!"

"The rifleman must have fifty rounds of ammunition per man, five hundred rounds for light machine guns, two thousand rounds for each heavy machine gun, fifty rounds for mortars, infantry guns, mountain guns, fifty rounds for each artillery. I'm going to spend one night severely injuring or killing this little devil of the mixed brigade, and at the very least, intercepting the food and ammunition supplies they carry! ”
