Yulin is located in the northernmost part of Shaanxi Province, China, at the junction of the Loess Plateau and the Mu Us Sandy Land, and is a transition zone between the Loess Plateau and the Inner Mongolia Plateau. The Yellow River faces each other across the river from Shanxi Province in the east, Ningxia and Gansu in the west, Yan'an in the south, and Ordos in the north, which is the junction of Shaanxi, Gansu, Ningbo, Mongolia and Shanxi provinces, and has been a battleground for soldiers since ancient times, with geographical coordinates: 36°57'~39°35'N, 107°28'~111°15'E.

。

It has jurisdiction over 2 districts and 10 counties, including Yuyang District, Hengshan District, Shenmu County, Fugu County, Dingbian County, Jingbian County, Suide County, Mizhi County, Jia County, Wubao County, Zizhou County and Qingjian County.

Such an important military town, whether it is a warlord, the Jin Sui Army or the Central Army, has actually always been coveted. It's a pity that the heavy garrison of the devils stationed here has caused many people who covet this place to retreat in defeat.

This time, Wang Long's 88th Division marched for 5 days from the side pass to the outside of Yulin City, walking about 200 kilometers, which is still a day rest and a night march, otherwise it will be faster.

And Wang Lung also received information from the scouts that the 10th Division of the Devils was stationed in Yulin at this time.

The 10th Division, also known as the Himeji Division, was organized in Himeji. The 10th Division, a division of the Japanese Army, was one of the 17 standing divisions of the Japanese army before the outbreak of World War II.

Due to the change of division commanders, it was once called the Isoya Division and the Shinozuka Division, and the division often used poison gas warfare in violation of the international laws of war. The 10th Division was newly established in 1898 after the Sino-Japanese War. It was made up of soldiers from the three prefectures of Hyogo, Okayama, and Tottori, as well as part of Shimane Prefecture.

In mid-August 1937, it landed in Dagu from the Japanese mainland and assembled in Tianjin, and was later incorporated into the 2nd Army.

In mid to late September, it fought on the east road of the northern section of Jinpu Road, occupying Botou and Dexian, in early November, Linyi and Shanghe, and in December, Jinan was occupied; Occupy Yanzhou in January 1938; At this time, the division was composed of the division commander, Lieutenant General Ryosuke Isoya, the chief of staff, the 8th Infantry Brigade (Major General Setakehei), and the 39th Wing (Numata Takazo Osa) and the 40th Wing (Yoshio Nagano). The 33rd Infantry Brigade (Major General Kei Seya) is under the command of the 10th Wing (Chishiba Yaezo Daisa) and the 63rd Wing (Fukuei Mahei Daisa).

The division and regiment directly administer one wing of cavalry, artillery, engineer, and baggage, as well as a communications team, a medical team, and a 1-4 field hospital. Temporarily attached to 2 artillery wings, 2 machine gun brigades, 2 armored squadrons. Around March 1938, the Seya Qi Brigade advanced alone and broke through the Sichuan Army's Wang Mingzhang Department in Tengxian County with a brigade, but planted a big heel in Taierzhuang.

In the face of the Northwest Army, which was ten times its size, and Tang Enbo's Central Army, although it claimed to be a retreat, it failed to achieve its tactical objectives in a series of offensives by the Japanese army, and in fact the 10th Division did lose face. Later, in the Battle of Xuzhou, the 63rd Wing of the 33rd Brigade broke through the 40,000 people of the Dian Army at Yuwang Mountain, and on June 18, the division commander was changed to Yoshio Shinozuka.

Speaking of Yoshio Shinozuka, everyone must be familiar with it! In the TV series Bright Sword, there is this Yoshio Shinozuka (I won't introduce it to everyone).

Yoshio Shinozuka took Yulin as his headquarters, and the 8th Infantry Brigade (Major General Setakehei) was stationed in Yuyang District, under the jurisdiction of the 39th Wing (Numata Takazo Osa) and the 40th Wing (Nagano Yoshio Osa), which respectively governed Shenmu County, Fugu County, Suide County, Mizhi County, and Jia County.

The 33rd Infantry Brigade (Major General Seya Kei) was stationed in Hengshan District, and the 10th Wing (Chichai Yaezo Osa) and the 63rd Wing (Fukuei Mahei Osa) were under the jurisdiction of Dingbian County, Jingbian County, Zizhou County, Qingjian County, and Wubao County respectively.

Wang Lung looked at the information in his hand, his brows furrowed, although it was said that the Tenth Division suffered a crushing defeat in Taierzhuang at this time, but there were still about 12,000 people, and now although Wang Long's total strength is more than that of the Little Devil's Tenth Division, the 88th Division has entered several major battles, and the troops that can fight are more than 15,000 people, and the rest are all wounded.

"Go and call the political commissar, chief of staff, and Xuanyi."

"Yes."

"Commander, you're looking for us." As soon as Xuan Yi entered the command headquarters, he said loudly.

Wang Lung glared at Xuan Yi, Xuan Yi walked on the chair next to him like no one, looking at Xuan Yi's scoundrel appearance, Wang Lung shook his head, and didn't bother with Xuan Yi.

"Look, it's a request from the scouts." As he spoke, Wang Long handed the information in his hand to the political commissar Ai Chunan, and then several people took turns to pass it on and take a look.

"Divisional commander, this is not easy to fight!" After reading the information, the political commissar said with a frown.

"Yes, division commander, although the 10th Division is said to be uneven, there are more than 10,000 people! Moreover, there are still many heavy weapons in the 10th Division, and if we want to attack it strongly, our chances of victory are not great. After listening to the words of the political commissar, Chief of Staff Li Zuopeng added.

"Division commander, can we divide and treacherous, the current 10th Division is no longer full, only more than 12,000 people, and it has to be stationed in these ten counties, so that each county has a maximum of one brigade of troops, and the division directly governs a wing of cavalry, artillery, engineering, and baggage, but most of the assistants are in Yulin, and the temporarily formed heavy armored corps, that is, tanks, armored vehicles, etc., have been transferred, and our 88th Division is in the north, and Yan'an in the south, we can let the headquarters send a part of the troops to help us block the devils in the south, I attacked from the north. Xuan Yi said as he looked at the map.

"Well, what Commander Xuanyi said is this, but the devils in Luliang, Taiyuan and other places will also send reinforcements! I don't know these yet, and I have to worry about the devil's plane, we have to think about this! Chief of Staff Li Zuopeng also looked at the map and said.

"Well, I think what Xuanyi said just now is feasible, you see, Fugu County is in the northernmost part, down is Shenmu County, and Fugu County is about 150 kilometers away from Yulin, and Shenmu County is also about 80 kilometers away from Yulin, as long as we arrange it reasonably and conceal it well, we can take these two counties when Fugu County and Shenmu County have not yet reflected, but there is one thing that everyone remembers, the secrecy work must be done well, and it is necessary to prevent the devil's plane from bombing during the day." Wang Lung agreed with Xuanyi's statement.

"Division commander, there is nothing in this county, it's just this devil's plane......" The political commissar and the chief of staff still remembered the bombing a few days ago, which made the two of them feel palpitations.
