At the Fuping County Station, the ironclad train has been prepared, and the five infantry brigades, an artillery team, a communications team, and an engineer team of nearly 5,000 people of the Japanese army's independent mixed fourth brigade have also begun to assemble, and the commander of the major general's brigade, Kaoru Kawamura, began to prepare to board the train.

"Kawamura-kun, please think about it a lot, all your brigades and regiments are dispatched, and there are too many targets, which will easily give the Eighth Route Army an opportunity to attack you. I suggest that we do the same as before, and send some troops to follow the battle. ”

Sasaki Toichi also came to the station, and when he saw Kaoru Kawamura who was about to leave by car, he frowned tightly and said.

"Sasaki-kun, I've already made a decision, you don't have to say anything, you wait for the news of my victorious return in the county." Kaoru Kawamura said with confidence on her face.

He began to lead the personnel of the brigade headquarters to the command car of the ironclad train, and as the ironclad train began to start, the troops of the independent mixed fourth brigade followed behind him.

The Japanese army has many carriages, each of which has a different role and is equipped with different weapon configurations.

The North China Front Army Headquarters dispatched this ironclad train with many carriages, and these carriages were arranged as follows: alert car - heavy artillery car (100mm cannon) - light artillery car - infantry vehicle - command vehicle - power locomotive - auxiliary coal water truck - equipment car - infantry vehicle - light artillery car - heavy artillery vehicle (150mm howitzer) - alert car.

The Japanese army will have heavy machine guns in every carriage, and there are dozens of heavy machine guns in the entire ironclad train, including 13mm large-caliber heavy machine guns.

With the start of the ironclad train, the headquarters of the 3rd Independent Mixed Brigade also began to set up a headquarters at the lower level of the ironclad train command car.

Originally, the upper floor was used to command artillery operations, where there were professional artillery command instruments and communication facilities, and the lower floor was used as an ironclad train command post, where there were radios and telephones, and could get in touch with any carriage and the outside world.

After Kaoru Kawamura's brigade headquarters was stationed in the command car, his brigade headquarters was naturally set up in the lower layer of the command car, and the command post of the ironclad train was moved to the upper level.

At this time, Kaoru Kawamura was taking his staff officers to carefully look at the map of Fuping County, and this time Kaoru Kawamura was planning to find the main force of the Eighth Route Army in the Jinchaji Military Region to fight.

"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, according to our several operations, we were attacked by the main force of China in Tianshengqiao Town, so we judged that the main force of China should be in the area of Tianshengqiao Town, and according to the information we received, it seems that Wutai County also has a branch of troops entering Fuping County, so we judge that the troops of the Eighth Route Army should be hidden in the area of Tianshengqiao Town and Longquanguan Town, and this time we will focus on sweeping and attacking Tianshengqiao Town and Longquanguan Town."

Chief of Staff of Nakasa, who was independently mixed into the Fourth Brigade, pointed to Tianshengqiao Town and Longquanguan Town on the map, and he said in a solemn tone.

"Yuxi, the troops immediately go to Tianshengqiao Town and Longquanguan Town, this time we must find the main force of the Eighth Route Army, and then completely defeat or even annihilate them!"

Hearing Chief of Staff Nakasa's analysis, Kaoru Kawamura had a satisfied smile on his face.

Kaoru Kawamura then began to give orders, and he asked the troops to speed up their march towards the town of Tenshengbashi.

Wutai Mountain, in the Field Hospital of the Second Division of Honor, in Sun Weiguo's ward.

At this time, Sun Weiguo was looking at the telegram sent by Yin Jinshan, Yin Jinshan was determined to ambush the Japanese troops, this time to ambush the Japanese troops, Yin Jinshan was going to use all the forces of the first assault group, and Yin Jinshan was not completely sure of winning this operation.

"Chief of Staff, what do you think?" Sun Weiguo put the message aside, and he looked at Zhao Lerong and said.

The first assault group has seven battalions, but three are artillery battalions, and there is also an armored battalion, a cavalry battalion, a reconnaissance battalion, and as for the infantry battalion, there is only one special service battalion unit, using these seven battalions to ambush the Japanese troops, and the Japanese army also has air superiority and ironclad trains, which is no wonder Yin Jinshan needs to ask for instructions.

"Division commander, if the Japanese army dispatches fewer troops, then the first assault group will have no meaning, but if the Japanese army dispatches too many troops, the first assault group is probably going to fight a tough battle, the seven battalions under the first assault group have varying degrees of casualties, and the Japanese aviation units can be dispatched at any time, I think it is a little difficult."

Zhao Lerong hesitated, he looked at Sun Weiguo and said, but before Sun Weiguo could speak, Zhao Lerong continued:

"Division commander, Commander Yin Jinshan has been able to stand alone, this time he seems to be asking for instructions on the surface, in fact, he must have made a choice in his heart, I think it is better for us not to give any instructions, whether to fight or not let Commander Yin Jinshan decide, I believe that Commander Yin Jinshan can make the most appropriate judgment."

"Send electricity to Yin Jinshan, and the specific combat matters are completely in their hands." Sun Weiguo immediately gave the order.

All the command matters of the Honorary Second Division are decided by Sun Weiguo, and there are very few officers who can stand alone, Yin Jinshan has been trained in actual combat, and Sun Weiguo trusts him very much.

"Yes, Commander." Zhao Lerong immediately saluted Sun Weiguo and said.

Fuping County, Tianshengqiao Town, near the railroad tracks.

The first assault group's anti-aircraft artillery battalion, heavy artillery battalion, and mechanized artillery battalion have begun to set up artillery positions nearby, the 30 Type 89 tanks of the 1st armored battalion are concealed in the vicinity and are on standby, the special battalion is to dispatch a company of troops to prepare for a feint, and the reconnaissance battalion troops have begun to disperse to reconnoiter the whereabouts of the Japanese army, and the 1st cavalry battalion is used by Yin Jinshan as a reserve.

Yin Jinshan set up an ambush circle here, and he was going to attract the little devils into this ambush circle to carry out operations.

According to Yin Jinshan's judgment, the Japanese army dispatched only more than 3,000 troops at most, and it was the first time for him to command such a large number of troops, and he was not too sure in his heart.

But Yin Jinshan was well aware of the current situation, and he knew that he had to act quickly, otherwise the longer he delayed from Fuping County, the greater the danger would be for the 120th Division.

"Commander Yin, our reconnaissance battalion troops found Japanese troops, the Japanese troops are marching along the railroad tracks towards here, and a large number of Japanese troops are following, these Japanese troops are mainly infantry, there are more than a dozen artillery pieces, according to its size, it should be a mixed brigade strength."

When Yin Jinshan was checking Sun Weiguo's call, Jia Leiping, the commander of the reconnaissance battalion, came to Yin Jinshan, and he immediately reported.

Hearing that the Japanese army dispatched a mixed brigade of troops, Yin Jinshan and Chief of Staff Liu Ke couldn't help but gasp at the same time.

"The little devil has dispatched more than 5,000 people this time." Yin Jinshan couldn't help muttering to himself.
