Volume 3 Chapter 26 Breakout
At 8 o'clock in the morning, all the scouts of the Red Ninth Army came to the gate of the headquarters to assemble, looking at the more than 1,000 well-equipped soldiers in front of him, Wang Lung secretly thought that these weapons were not in vain, and the training during this period of time was not in vain.

"Comrades, I think everyone already knows that we are surrounded by devils this time, it can be said that this is the most dangerous time since we formed the army, but it can also be said that it is a test for us, and the key to success or failure is all on you."
Wang Lung paused for a moment and continued, "This time your task is to do everything possible to know the direction of the devil's actions in advance, so as to give the main force time to reflect, and this time there are people from the special regiment to cooperate with you." ”
"Yes, we are determined to complete the task." Everyone shouted.
"Well, let's go, I'm waiting for your message." Wang Lung said in a deep voice.
When the reconnaissance battalion left the headquarters, the logistics office of the Red Ninth Army was also nervously distributing ammunition. After sending out more than half of the ammunition, all the remaining supplies were mule and horse-like, and all the loading and unloading were completed, waiting for the order of the corps commander.
At the same time, there was a hint of seriousness in the excitement of the soldiers of each regiment who came to collect the ammunition, although after the distribution of ammunition, the ammunition of the entire Red Ninth Army was not only the first in the whole army, but also the largest in the entire Chinese army. However, it also indicates that a big battle will lie ahead of them.
Watching the orderly troops in and out of the city, Wang Lung thought in his heart: "This time we must bring all the troops out." ”
After a day of preparation, all units completed their pre-battle mobilization and ammunition was distributed.
"Send a telegram to the regiments, start according to the plan, and ask the regiment's radio station to keep in touch." Wang Lung said.
Early the next morning, all the troops set off, and Wang Lung and the special regiment were behind to give the other regiments enough time to prepare.
At about 10 o'clock in the evening, the special regiment came to report that the devil was coming.
Wang Lung woke up all the warriors and prepared to set off for Datong.
After Wang Lung and the others left, the soldiers of the special regiment also set up tricky mines on the road to slow down the advance of the devils.
In the evening, the 4th and 5th regiments of the Red Ninth Army camped.
"The commander of the regiment, the first regiment and the second regiment have telegraphed, they have arrived in Yangyuan County, and the third regiment has also sent a telegram, saying that they have reached the periphery of Tianzhen, and the sixth regiment is now in an unknown defensive position and can join the battle at any time." The accompanying telegraph operator received a telegram.
"Well, tell the first and second regiments that they can start, and 15 minutes after the first and second regiments start, the third regiment will give me a fierce attack and take Tianzhen, and we, that is, the fourth and fifth regiments, take the special regiment as the vanguard and attack Datong secretly, if the sneak attack fails, give me the defense of Datong with artillery, and we must take Datong for me before 7 o'clock in the morning. And are the scouts who went to Datong to scout now back? ”
"Legion Commander, the scout has just arrived, and this is the reconnaissance report." As he spoke, the guard handed a piece of paper to Wang Lung.
"Commander, there is about one brigade of the remaining devil defenders in Datong, with heavy firepower, and heavy machine guns are set up on the surrounding city walls, which can be said to be easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there is also a field artillery battalion of devils in Datong City."
Looking at the intelligence played by the scouts, it seems that this devil still cares a lot about Datong.
"Call back to the scout: Order the reconnaissance battalion to find out the specific location of the enemy's artillery position and the location of the Devil's brigade and regiment's position, and be sure to give me a clear idea of the location of the Devil's artillery battalion and the Devil's brigade before 2 o'clock in the morning, and send it as quickly as possible. Let's send it out like that. Wang Lung thought for a moment and said.
After about half an hour, the scout sent back the report that Wang Lung needed.
After receiving Wang Lung's order, all the heavy artillery of the artillery regiment fired 4 times, and the special regiment had already touched the ground of the devil's city wall, just waiting for a sound of zero to blow up the city wall.
At this time, the 1st and 2nd regiments had already begun to attack Yangyuan County.
The devil is stationed in Yangyuan, Noyama Taro, one of the devils' big sa, and the highest commander of Yangyuan County.
When the Eighth Route Army attacked Yangyuan County, Noyama Taro didn't pay much attention to it, but when the Eighth Route Army fired shells on the city wall for nearly 5 minutes or so, Noyama Taro knew that this might be the main force of the Eighth Route Army to attack his Yangyuan County.
Noyama Taro hurriedly sent a telegram asking for help, and when Noyama Taro's telegram was sent to the headquarters, Okamura Ninji was discussing how to annihilate this group of eight roads in one fell swoop.
"Report."
The commander's personnel were deliberating, and suddenly a "report" broke it.
"What's the matter?" Okamura Ninji raised his head and said with a frown.
"Report, Your Excellency Commander, Yangyuan County sent a distress telegram, saying that Yangyuan County was under onslaught by the main force of the Eighth Route Army."
"Nani." Okamura Ninji hurriedly looked at the map.
The more I look at it, the more I frown.
Okamura Ninji didn't know what the true intention of this group of eight roads was, could it really be that all the main forces were attacking Yangyuan County.
This is another staff officer who has reported in.
"Report."
Okamura Ninji saw another staff officer come in and knew that it was the matter of the Eighth Road again.
"Say it!"
"Report to Your Excellency Commander, Yangyuan County has sent a distress telegram again, saying that the Eighth Route has been shelling continuously for 10 minutes and has never stopped. Now the outer city wall has partially collapsed, but all the positions in Yangyuan County are still in our hands. ”
With Yangyuan County's request for help again, Okamura Ningji thought: "Perhaps, the main force of the Eighth Route Army is really besieging Yangyuan County. ”
"Order: All the surrounding forces are moving closer to Yangyuan, with the Imperial Association Army as the vanguard, our Imperial Army must quickly take Wei County, Guangling County, Hunyuan County and other counties to prevent the Eighth Route from returning again." Okamura Ninji said.
"Yes"
The staff officer went to send a telegram.
"Oh, by the way, where are the soldiers of the 4th Division?" Okamura asked.
