The fiery red sun slowly rose in the east, and the darkness of the night was driven away by the light, and the surroundings began to brighten.

On 10 March, at dawn, the 359th Brigade attacking Lan County had made great progress, and one of them had begun to enter the city.

Here in Lan County, the fierce gunfire gradually died down, and silence returned to most places.

The Japanese 109th Division has been instructed by the North China Front Command that they intend to hold peace talks with Sun Weiguo again, this time the Japanese army intends to exchange the wing flag, and at the same time they also plan to withdraw their troops, and at present the Japanese 109th Division has thousands of casualties, and the price is too great.

The fighting here in Dongcun Town is still ongoing, and the Japanese troops want to end the fighting, but the Chinese troops will not give them this opportunity.

At present, Dongcun Town has completely turned into a ruin, and more than 300 Japanese troops cling to the ruins to make the last resistance, and it can be expected that it is only a matter of time before this Japanese army is completely annihilated.

"The 3rd Cavalry Regiment has 435 killed and 172 wounded, and is currently able to fight less than 300 men."

"The Sixth Cavalry Regiment has three hundred and fifteen killed, seventy wounded, and fifty-two missing, and there are less than 500 combat-ready soldiers at present."

"The 1st Independent Regiment has 262 killed and 256 wounded, and currently has more than 1,800 combatants."

"The 1st Reserve Regiment has 192 killed, 145 wounded, and more than 2,500 combatants at present."

In the regimental headquarters of the First Reserve Regiment, Chief of Staff Zhu Jianwei was reporting the casualties of various units to Sun Weiguo, who had just returned to the regimental headquarters.

At present, there are no casualties in all units except for the 8th Artillery Battalion, and all units have already suffered damage, and the most important point is that the officers and men of the various units are very tired and have consumed a lot of ammunition, which has greatly reduced the combat effectiveness of the troops.

The negotiators sent by the Japanese army had already arrived in the county seat, but Sun Weiguo had no intention of meeting with the Japanese representative immediately.

He wanted to wait until the troops ate the Japanese troops in Dongcun Town, and then negotiate with the Japanese representative.

"The troops need to rest, we have no ability to counterattack for the time being, this loss is too great, there are still more than 3,000 Japanese troops on the opposite side, judging from the current situation, we want to eat them completely, this is simply impossible."

Zhao Lerong looked at Sun Weiguo, and he said with a serious expression.

Sun Weiguo frowned, he felt a pity in his heart, this time there were so many troops, Sun Weiguo wanted to completely eat the Japanese troops, but it was a pity that now the troops had begun to appear in various situations, and if they continued to fight reluctantly, I am afraid that there would be accidents.

"In addition to the troops attacking Dongcun Town, the rest of the troops began to rest, political commissar, take out all our family resources, whether it is our troops or the troops of the Jinsui Army, they will be well entertained, so that the officers and soldiers can eat their stomachs." Sun Weiguo said softly.

The 1st Reserve Regiment had a lot of money, they had a lot of canned beef that the troops did not have, and they also had a lot of white flour and rice, which were captured from the Japanese, and they also had a lot of various military supplies.

After the war, there was a commendation, whether it was the Eighth Route Army or the Jin Sui Army, Sun Weiguo was generally satisfied with this operation.

Thinking about the fact that the four armies of the Jin Sui Army retreated without a fight when they encountered the devil soldiers, and when he thought of commanding an infantry regiment and two cavalry regiments of the Jin Sui Army to achieve such a great achievement, Sun Weiguo was very satisfied, and he had to reward these officers and soldiers.

After this order was issued, Sun Weiguo came to Lanxian County with some of the guards, but Sun Weiguo still did not go to meet the Japanese military representatives.

He came directly to the medical team, and after checking the condition of the wounded, Sun Weiguo came to the place where the Japanese military negotiation representative was.

This is an inn, but because of the war, the boss has already run away, and the young man sent by the Japanese army is arranged here.

This Japanese soldier is the staff officer of the 109th Division, and he was sent by Ochiai Shizaburo, which can be regarded as representing the importance that the Japanese army attaches to this matter, of course, if the Japanese army does not feel that Sun Weiguo is a little cunning, Ochiai Shizaburo will personally come to negotiate.

"Commander Sun Weiguo, we have already prepared the weapons and ammunition you requested, if nothing happens, they will all be transported here tomorrow, in order to show our sincerity, we have completely stopped fighting at present, I hope you can also show some sincerity, the Chinese troops in Dongcun Town please let them give way to a road, and the Japanese troops there will withdraw immediately."

After the Japanese army saw Sun Weiguo, he restrained the anger in his heart and said in a calm tone.

If it weren't for the North China Front Army implementing the strategic plan to open up the Jinpu line, if it weren't for the Japanese 119 Wing flag in the hands of Sun Weiguo, the Japanese army Shaozo would not think that the Japanese army would be so polite to Sun Weiguo.

"I'm really sorry, I've just received the news that the Japanese troops stationed in Dongcun Town have been completely wiped out, and even if we get out of the way, no Japanese soldiers will leave Dongcun Town alive. You've done a good job, and tomorrow you'll send me what I want, and I'll definitely give you the flag. Sun Weiguo said with a smile.

In fact, there was no news from Dongcun Town for a long time, and Sun Weiguo also knew that it was still difficult to encircle and annihilate the Japanese army.

But in front of the Japanese army Shaozo, Sun Weiguo would not tell the truth, he planned to deceive the weapons and ammunition.

"Head Sun Weiguo, you are not sincere in doing this, and we will cancel the exchange with you."

Dongcun Town is not very far from Lan County, and the faint sound of gunfire can be heard clearly, and the Japanese army Shao Zuo will not believe that the Japanese troops in Dongcun Town have been completely annihilated, he said with anger on his face and in a cold tone.

"It's okay not to exchange, the Second Theater Commander's Department has a higher price, just click to kill your two wing commanders, and the chairman of the committee plans to award me the rank of major general, if I give the chairman the wing flag that your Japanese emperor personally awarded to the troops, I'm afraid I will definitely be able to get the rank of major general."

Sun Weiguo looked at the Japanese soldier Shaozuo in front of him, and he said with a playful expression.

The Japanese army Shaozuo's face turned pale, and he glanced at Sun Weiguo coldly, but when he met an officer like Sun Weiguo, he had no choice, he had to exchange back the 119 Wing flag, which was something that Terauchi Shouichi personally explained.

"I'm going to Dongcun Town to check, if there are really no living Japanese soldiers there, we can continue to exchange, if there are still living Japanese soldiers there, I have to report this matter to the above, I think my superiors know that you don't have the slightest sincerity, they will also cancel the exchange."

The Japanese soldier Shaozuo was silent for a while, he looked at Sun Weiguo and put forward his request.
