"Your Excellency, the Special High School admits that they have indeed ignored the intelligence of the Eighth Route Army, especially the intelligence of the instructor. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info but they are already determined to correct their mistakes and do their best to collect information about the instructor and Zhang Cheng. And I believe that as long as our imperial army no longer despises the instructor, we will soon be able to seize the weakness of the mentor and wipe him out. ”

Naosaburo Okabe believed that the Japanese army's successive defeats to the instructor were due to the underestimation of the enemy, not because the instructor's strength was difficult to defeat. As everyone knows, his view is also another degree of contempt.

After some hysterical venting, the anger in his heart temporarily calmed down, and he asked with a gloomy face, "Do you have any countermeasures for the Eighth Route Army Instructor?" ”

"Your Excellency Commander, we don't have the extra strength to deal with them for the time being, and the Sixth and Sixteenth Divisions are now fighting in the south; The 14th Division is facing off against the Central Army of the Kuomintang in Ji Province and cannot leave lightly; The 20th Division was pursuing Wei Lihuang's 14th Army in Jinnan; The Fourth Division was overwhelmed, and fighting with the instructor would only increase Zhang Cheng's exploits; The 108th Division was stationed in Datong, and it was probably not Zhang Cheng's opponent to face the instructor alone.

For the time being, we really can't help this teacher, unless our Imperial Army can quickly defeat the main force of the Kuomintang in the south and occupy their capital, then the troops going south can return to the front army system. Okabe Naosaburo said helplessly.

"Yaga! Our imperial army is invincible, and we can't help this instructor to teach me how to save face for the North China Front? Terauchi Shouichi was very dissatisfied with Okabe Naosaburo's answer and ordered him to find a way to eliminate Zhang Cheng's mentor as soon as possible no matter what.

"Your Excellency Commander, our North China Front Army is scattered and stationed in various places, and it is really unable to solve this instructor, unless the base camp can send new troops, rebuild the Fifth Division, and transfer a part of the Kwantung Army Division from Manchukuo into the customs, we can cleanly eliminate this instructor." Naosaburo Okabe replied honestly.

Hearing the word "base camp" mentioned by Naosaburo Gangbe, Terauchi Shouichi's heart couldn't help but be stunned, the news of the annihilation of the Fifth Division has not yet been reported to the base camp, if the base camp wants to hold all the Fifth Division responsible for the jade shattering, even if he Terauchi Shouichi, a general with backstage protection, can't eat and walk around!

Thinking of this, Terachi Shouichi "swished", and countless cold sweats suddenly broke out on his back, thinking that the top priority now is not to eliminate the instructor of the Eighth Route Army, but how to shirk the responsibility of the fifth division's jade crush, if he wants to take responsibility for the fifth division's jade crush, isn't it forcing himself to commit suicide?

Thinking of this terrible consequence, Terauchi Shouichi's eagerness to eliminate the sect teacher gradually faded, and he only hoped that there would be no more demon moths in the North China Front, and that he had to quickly mobilize all kinds of connections to intercede for himself and avoid blame.

Not to mention how the old devil Shouyi in the temple wanted to shirk his responsibility, at this time, the instructor led by Zhang Cheng had been ambushed in a mountain village less than ten miles outside Taiyuan City.

After nightfall, a house in the originally quiet village suddenly lit up an oil lamp, and the cadres at or above the battalion level who taught the instructor sat in a group and discussed the plan to attack Taiyuan.

"Has the situation in Taiyuan City been clarified?" Zhang Cheng asked Hu Wei, the minister of security.

"Report to the division commander, now there is only the 118th Wing of the 136th Brigade of the Japanese Army stationed in Taiyuan City, the wing leader is Yangjingjie Dazuo, the strength is 3800 people, and there are 3000 people in the puppet army security regiment organized by local traitors, with a total strength of 7,000, but the Japanese army still has strong combat effectiveness, and the puppet army has just been formed, and the combat effectiveness is not worth mentioning. In addition, the most noteworthy thing is that there is also an army aviation brigade in Taiyuan City, with about 50 aircraft. Hu Wei reported.

"The air force of Taiyuan City is handed over to our newly established First Air Brigade of the Eighth Route Army to solve, and at present the Japanese army does not know that our Eighth Route Army has air power, and we can use the Japanese army's intelligence blind spot to carry out air strikes on Taiyuan Airport and seize the air supremacy of Taiyuan in one fell swoop." Zhang Cheng said confidently.

"Where is the weak point of the Japanese army's defense in Taiyuan at the moment?" Zhang Cheng asked again.

"The division commander is really too cautious, in fact, the current Japanese defense in Taiyuan is very weak, as long as we launch an attack on Taiyuan, it will be easy to take Taiyuan, the only thing to worry about is whether other troops have the ability to block the Japanese army for a period of time after taking Taiyuan, so that we have enough time to empty Taiyuan and achieve the strategic goal of the division commander." Li Yunlong said with a big grin.

After hearing this, Zhang Cheng also reflected on himself, and found that he was indeed too cautious, and now the instructor has more than 30,000 troops in addition to the second brigade stationed in Xinzhou, and he can force the attack on Taiyuan with the overwhelming momentum of Mount Tai, and the Japanese army with less than 4,000 troops has no ability to stop the instructor.

However, the political commissar very much agreed with Zhang Cheng's caution, and he retorted: "The lion fights the rabbit still needs to use all his strength, not to mention the Japanese army with nearly 4,000 men, it does not hurt for the division commander to be cautious, and a careful plan can reduce the casualties of the troops." ”

Zhang Cheng finally deployed: "Since we have an absolute superiority in troops, then we will launch a siege from all sides, each brigade is responsible for attacking a city gate, and the divisional troops will also join the battle." In addition, the underground organization in Taiyuan City will also cooperate with the attack of our instructor to cause riots in the city, so that the Japanese army will be exhausted and take care of themselves. ”

"By the way, which comrade of our Eighth Route Army is in charge of the Taiyuan underground party?" Zhang Cheng asked again.

"The division commander is Comrade Guan Zhongxun, one of the founders of the Red Army in northern Shaanxi, and he is now transferred from the army to the local government to take charge of the leadership of the underground party in Jin Province." Hu Wei thought for a moment and replied.

"It turned out to be Guan Da's father in the future!" Zhang Cheng's heart was also shocked.

"Can you contact them now?" Zhang Cheng asked.

"No problem, they are very well hidden, plus the Japanese army has just occupied Taiyuan, and the established forces are still very immature and cannot threaten them. Now they should have learned of our plan to attack Taiyuan, and they have begun to act one after another. Hu replied.

"Very good, before attacking Taiyuan, order them to create a riot in Taiyuan City and disturb the attention of the Japanese army, so that we will be even more foolproof if we take Taiyuan." Zhang Cheng said with satisfaction.
