"Junzao, the army is on the march, and we still have 200,000 Jin Sui Army and Central Army behind us, what if they take advantage of the fire to rob this?" Ling Tianbao asked.

"No," Zhang Mingyu waved his hand and said: "This time I will only take one division and leave one division to guard Taiyuan, and in addition, we don't need to sneak attack this time, just the march of the light, not only to let Yan Laoxi know, but also to let the fathers and villagers, brothers and sisters of the whole country know that we are reading the army to march into Hebei and fight devils, so that even if he Yan Laoxi has the courage to sneak attack us from behind." ”

"Junzao, in this case, isn't that equivalent to telling me that we are going to attack Shimen?" Liu Cheng asked puzzled.

"Our tens of thousands of troops, if we want to quietly march into Hebei, it must not be able to hide the devil's eyeline, rather than this, it is better for us to make a big publicity, not only let the whole [***] people know, but also let the people of the world see how we defeated the army head-on!" Zhang Mingyu said coldly.

"Junza, then which division is attacking this time?" Ling Tianbao asked a little anxiously.

"I've already thought about it, your second division has just replenished some new recruits, so the second division stays in Taiyuan, and the first infantry division attacks Shimen along the Shitai Railway!" Zhang Mingyu replied.

Seeing that Ling Tianbao was a little displeased, Zhang Mingyu comforted: "Tianbao, don't think that staying behind is a nest, let me tell you, the significance of staying in Taiyuan is far more important than attacking Shimen, as long as you ensure that Taiyuan is safe, then the first merit of this battle is your second division, but I said ugly things ahead, if Taiyuan is lost in your hands, Lao Tzu will shoot you!" ”

"Rest assured, the leopard understands, the people are in the city, and the people in the city are lost!" Ling Tian Leopard snapped and stood upright.

"Hmm!" Zhang Mingyu nodded and turned to Liu Cheng and said: "Chief of Staff, this time we are attacking a frontal battle, you immediately write a telegram ordering the armored division except for one regiment stationed in Ordos, and the rest of the regiments and battalions immediately rush to Taiyuan to prepare to participate in the battle!" ”

"Yes!" Liu Cheng said loudly.

"Junza, there are still devils stationed in Niangzi Pass, shall we take it?" Zhang Biao asked.

Zhang Mingyu did not answer Zhang Biao, but asked Liu Cheng: "Chief of Staff, how many devils are there in Niangziguan?" ”

"Returning to the military seat, the army of Niangzi Pass is a small army that retreated from Shouyang in the Taiyuan Campaign, and the strength is only two squadrons at most, it is estimated that the devils did not withdraw the devils of these two squadrons from Shanxi, but stationed in Niangzi Pass, most of them were used as forward sentry posts, so as to warn the devils in Shimen to attack our army." Liu Cheng replied slowly.

"Hmm!" Zhang Mingyu nodded and said: "Then eat it, there are nearly a million devils in China, and killing one more is one!" Ushida is expensive! ”

"Yes!" The commander of the 1st Regiment of the 1st Division, Ushida Gui, stood up with a snap.

"Order you to lead a regiment as the vanguard, attack Niangzi Pass tonight, and take him down before dawn!" Zhang Mingyu commanded awe-inspiringly.

"Yes! Rest assured, the mission is guaranteed! Niu Tiangui suddenly agreed, and immediately sat down.

"Oh, by the way, Chief of Staff, you go and equip all the mortars in the arsenal with ammunition and distribute them to the troops. Be sure to make sure that each squad has at least three 60 mortars and four grenadiers. It is necessary to comprehensively overwhelm the devils in terms of light firepower. ”

(Explain again: because of the compression of the troop establishment, the brigade level has been cancelled, and below the division level is the regiment level, but this compressed establishment only reaches the company and battalion level, and the two levels of the squad are still the same, according to the strength of the Reading Army, a division of 30,000 people, three regiments, a regiment of 10,000 people, three infantry battalions, a machine gun battalion, and each battalion has three infantry companies and a machine gun company, and a company here is equivalent to the original reinforced battalion, so it will be equipped with a machine gun company, and the shift is the same, more than 20 people in a shift, less than a dozen people, Platoon of fifty or sixty people. A company of the Reading Force had at least twenty platoons and more than sixty squads. Explain it purely because I am afraid that everyone will be confused when they watch it, lest everyone say: Ah, how can you have seven or eight hundred people in a company? Or even thousands? ”

The establishment of the Reading Force is really not regularized enough, but in order not to let the veteran get angry, Zhang Mingyu can only do this, after all, Lao Jiang gave him the establishment of these things, and Zhang Mingyu wants to realize the streamlining of the army, in order to achieve the order can be transmitted to the most basic combat units such as the company and platoon as quickly as possible, and the brigade level is directly abolished.

However, in this case, after Zhang Mingyu was promoted to the commander of the group army, the current first division will become the first army of reading. Okay, so much nonsense, it's time to get to the point, everyone rest assured, this hundred crosses don't charge everyone's money, I will code out one or two hundred words more, and I won't take advantage of everyone.

"Okay! I'll do it right away! Liu Cheng happily took the order.

"Okay, if you don't have any other suggestions or opinions, today's meeting will be here, and Niu Tiangui will go back and gather the troops and prepare to go!" Zhang Mingyu said indifferently.

"Yes!" And they all stood up and answered. Then they all turned and left.

At this time, Jin Bihui walked out of the back room with a plump big buttocks, and saw that there was something wrong with Zhang Mingyu's eyes staring at him, and he couldn't help but say angrily: "Have you seen enough, I have something to report!" ”

Zhang Mingyu smiled slightly, put away his wolf-like eyes, and asked with a smile: "What's the matter?" ”

"According to the report of the Black Tiger, not long ago, Senior General Okamura Ningji, commander of the Northern Group Army of the Chinese Army, transferred the commander of the garrison of the Shimen Army, and the former commander of the Fifth Brigade and the current commander of the Shimen garrison of the Japanese Army, Sasaki Toichi, was removed from his post and investigated, and the new commander was Lieutenant General Kawabe Shozo, who began to rectify military affairs and train the troops as soon as he took office, and the morale of the Shimen Army rose sharply in a short period of time." Jin Bihui said in a report with an indifferent expression. (Note: The Black Tiger is the code name for the last time the Einsatzgruppen was dispatched to secretly infiltrate the Stone Gate.) "Shozo Riverside? The dog said~! It's good to come! Lao Tzu has to pick the skin of the dog this time! Zhang Mingyu said angrily when he heard this.

As the flower of the former spy, Jin Bihui certainly knew why Zhang Mingyu hated Hebian Zhengsan so much, Hebian Zhengsan, the former commander of the Chinese Tun Garrison Brigade, and the Tun Garrison Brigade led by him was the main force of the garrison army stationed in North China at that time, with more than 5,000 people, so his unit also became the vanguard of the Lugou Bridge Incident.

It can be said that he was the main participant and commander of the July 7 Incident, and he was a criminal who invaded China with many crimes, so Zhang Mingyu hated this riverside Zhengsan so much.

In the original history, Kawabe Shozo should have been a general at this time, and it can be seen that the arrival of Zhang Mingyu has deeply changed the history of this time and space.

"The Black Tiger also reported that Kawabe Shozo was extremely vigilant, and they had no chance to approach and could not assassinate him!" Jin Bihui continued to report.

"Miss Jin Bihui, what do you think of this person? Or you should know what hobbies, hobbies, and weaknesses the person has! Zhang Mingyu asked with a hint of gadget. Zhang Mingyu's question is meaningful, after all, Jin Bihui has been doing intelligence for himself for so long, and he is still very familiar with the senior generals of the Yue army.

Jin Bihui glared at Zhang Mingyu coldly, sat down and said: "This person is a native of Toyama County, his father is called the landlord Kawabe Shunzo, he is the third son of Kawabe Shunzo, and this person also has a younger brother, and now he is a major general of the aviation force, whose name is Kawabe Torushiro."

He graduated from the 19th Infantry Department of the Army Non-commissioned Officer School at the end of May 1907, and graduated from the 27th Infantry Department of the Army University in 1915. ”

Zhang Mingyu couldn't help but feel disappointed after hearing this, and said disappointedly: "You said so much is equivalent to not saying it, doesn't he have any shortcomings?" Such as women, etc.? ”

Jin Bihui Feng's eyes widened, and he looked at Zhang Mingyu with displeasure, looking like you thought everyone was as lustful as you, but I didn't know that I really thought I was a national hero, and as soon as I got to bed, my original form was revealed.

Zhang Mingyu looked at Jin Bihui's eyes, and also guessed her thoughts, turned a blind eye to her contempt, and pounced on her extremely shamelessly, and then took off her clothes three times and five times, and then went straight into the gun, and suddenly the room was full of spring.

After a while, Zhang Mingyu sorted out his clothes and asked with a serious face: "How is the training of the first batch of personnel?" ”

Jin Bihui was still intoxicated with the drift just now, and when he heard Zhang Mingyu's inquiry, he couldn't help but roll his eyes, and said, "In another week, they will all be qualified and can start working." ”

"Hmm!" Zhang Mingyu nodded and said: "This matter is hard for you, after these people are out of the division, you will scatter them out, I want them to be as pervasive as the wind, whether it is the devil puppet army, the Central Army, the Jin Sui Army, the Ma Jiajun and their information, I must all be in my hands." ”

"Hmm!" Jin Bihui hummed softly, and then began to put on his clothes to hide the bits of spring light that was exposed.

Niangzi Pass is located in the famous pass of the Great Wall of China, at the west entrance of Jingcheng County, Hebei Province, on the west side of the Taihang Mountains, and at the foot of Mianshan Mountain in the northeast of Pingding County, Shanxi Province. Niangzi Pass was originally known as "Wei Ze Pass", because Princess Pingyang of the Tang Dynasty had led troops to garrison here, and Princess Pingyang's troops were called "Niangzi Army" at that time, so it was named Niangzi Pass.

In Pingding County, southwest of Niangzi Pass, as early as the beginning of the recovery of Taiyuan, the Yue army retreated to Niangzi Pass in a hurry, and the Reading Army took advantage of the situation to recover Pingding County.

As early as evening, the first and second battalions of the first regiment had quietly left the city and rushed to hide in the mountains and forests not far from Niangzi Pass.

Seeing that the sky was slowly getting dark, Niu Tiangui said to the herald soldiers beside him: "Send a telegram to the first battalion and the second battalion, let them prepare for battle, and launch a surprise attack on Niangzi Pass in three hours!" ”

"Yes!" The herald gladly accepted the order and quickly turned and left.
