Stinger is a high-level spy planted by the Japanese army in the New Second Brigade, Stinger is directly under the leadership of the intelligence department of the North China Front, only the officer in charge of the intelligence department and the commander of the North China Front Terauchi Shouichi know the true identity of the stinger, and the rest of the personnel do not know the true identity of the stinger at all.

Although Okabe Naosaburo is the lieutenant general chief of staff of the North China Front, he still does not know the identity of the stinger, but he believes in the authenticity of the information provided by the stinger, and Sun Weiguo asked the Sixth Cavalry Regiment to continue to pursue and annihilate the rest of the Fourth Cavalry Brigade, which is also in line with the current situation.

Listening to Okabe Naosaburo's words, Umezu Mijiro had a contemplative expression on his face, and he looked towards the map.

At present, all the units fighting in Pingding County have already suffered a lot of losses, the local armed forces of the Eighth Route Army in the areas occupied by the Japanese army in North China have been active one after another, and the troops of the Jinsui Army, which have been silent all along, are about to take action, and the Japanese troops in North China are now being transferred from a second army, and the forces they have at their disposal are obviously somewhat unable to control the huge occupied areas.

In order to be able to completely encircle and annihilate the troops of Sun Weiguo's new second brigade, this time the Japanese army in North China transferred troops of three divisions and four brigades, these troops are the main force of the Japanese army in North China, and it is impossible for these troops to fight in Pingding County often.

"The 108th Brigade of the 110th Division quickly went to Zanhuang County, and cooperated with the Fourth Cavalry Brigade to contain the Sixth Cavalry Regiment of the New Second Brigade of China, the First Brigade of the Momoyo Melee in Kuno Village and the Third Brigade of the Independent Mixed Brigade immediately controlled the county seat of Binh Dinh County, and the troops of the 21st Division and the 114th Division went all out to encircle and annihilate the remnants of the New Second Brigade in Pingding County, and all departments should re-establish the Second Brigade in the shortest possible time.

Umezu Mijiro pointed to Pingding Prefecture on the map, his eyes looked at the chief of staff Iida Shojiro, and he gave the battle order in a cold tone.

In accordance with the order of Umezu Yoshijiro, the 1st Brigade and the 3rd Independent Mixed Brigade took control of the county seat of Binh Dinh County, so as to control the inner line, and the 21st and 114th Divisions launched a fierce attack from the outer line.

The 6th Cavalry Regiment in Zanhuang County was contained by the remnants of the 4th Cavalry Brigade and the 108th Brigade reinforced with heavy machine guns and rapid-fire guns, while Umezu Yoshijiro planned to deal with the two infantry regiments of the New 2nd Brigade in Binh Dinh County first, and then the 6th Cavalry Regiment in Zanhuang County.

"Send a telegram to the small island of the Fourth Cavalry Brigade, if necessary, they can give up Zanhuang County, as long as they contain the Sixth Cavalry Regiment, we will definitely win the battle in Pingding County, the intelligence of the Stinger will play a great role in this time, we can't waste this good opportunity." Naosaburo Okabe also explained.

"Hey." Shojiro Iida hurriedly saluted Mijiro Umezu and Naosaburo Okabe, and he immediately began to arrange for the communications personnel to send electricity.

The headquarters of the First Army in Taiyuan City began to send telegrams overnight, and the 108th Brigade from Shijiazhuang began to accelerate its march towards Zanhuang County, and after the 1st Brigade of the Mixed Battle received the order of the 1st Army Headquarters, Momoyo Kunomura ordered the artillery detachment to cover and shoot at Donghui Town, and the 1st and 2nd Mixed Combat Brigades were ready to attack.

The quiet Pingding County became noisy as the 32 artillery pieces of the artillery detachment of the 1st Brigade began to shell Donghui Town, and fierce artillery sounds rang out, and shells continued to explode on the outskirts of Donghui Town and inside the town.

THREE 75MM FIELD ARTILLERY SQUADRONS, TWO 105MM FIELD ARTILLERY SQUADRONS, THREE 75MM MOUNTAIN ARTILLERY SQUADRONS, AND THE ARTILLERY DETACHMENT OF THE FIRST BRIGADE OF THE MELEE ARE ALMOST EQUIVALENT TO THE STRENGTH OF AN ARTILLERY WING, AND THE RANGE OF THE 75MM TYPE 38 FIELD GUNS AND THE 38 TYPE 105MM FIELD GUNS THEY ARE EQUIPPED WITH IS MORE THAN 10,000 METERS, AND THE RANGE OF THE 12 TYPE 94 MOUNTAIN GUNS IS ALSO MORE THAN 8,000 METERS.

The sound of artillery in the Japanese artillery positions rang out one after another, and shells were fired from the barrels, and the shells that broke out of the barrels hit Donghui Town like big fireballs.

Shrapnel flew, black smoke was everywhere, the soil was blown up, houses could not withstand the shock wave and began to collapse, and Donghui Town began to gradually turn into ruins.

After the brigade headquarters of the new 2nd Brigade was moved from the county seat to Donghui Town, the brigade headquarters began to set up a brigade headquarters in the underground bunker in the center of Donghui Town.

The explosion above still had some effect on the underground bunker, and dust began to scatter on the table, and some teacups were covered with dust.

Chief of Staff Zhao Lerong and Deputy Chief of Staff Zhu Jianwei were drawing up a battle plan, and they were holding red and blue pencils to mark on the map.

Chief of Staff Qin Xianliang and Deputy Director Yin Jin were talking softly on the side, with a somewhat solemn expression on their faces.

Although Pingding County took the initiative to give up, the Japanese army had captured Pingding County after all, and if even Donghui Town was lost now, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Brigade commander, it's too dangerous here, I suggest that the brigade headquarters move immediately." Wang Kunyao, the chief of the intelligence department, came to Sun Weiguo and said.

Before Sun Weiguo could answer, Yue Wu, the section chief of the Operations Section, picked up the microphone, and after listening to the contents, he immediately reported: "Brigade commander, Liang Zerui, battalion commander called to ask for instructions, whether the artillery can shoot at the Japanese artillery position, Liang Zerui's battalion commander has dispersed all eight heavy artillery, their heavy artillery can hit the Japanese artillery array, and Liang Zerui's battalion commander guarantees that the heavy artillery will not be damaged in the slightest. ”

"Let them shoot freely, forget it, I'll tell Liang Zerui personally." Sun Weiguo came directly to Yue Wu's side.

He took the microphone and shouted into the microphone: "Liang Zerui, I am Sun Weiguo, your heavy artillery shoots freely at the Japanese artillery positions, and it doesn't matter if the shells run out, but you must suppress the Japanese artillery, the little devil artillery is very fierce, and if you continue to fight like this, I am afraid that the positions will be destroyed." ”

"Brigade commander, don't worry, I will definitely suppress the little devil's artillery." Liang Zerui immediately agreed.

The call ended, and four 105MM field guns and four 105MM cannons began to fire under the command of Liang Zerui.

Eight heavy guns began to fire at the Japanese troops, and shells continued to fire at the Japanese artillery positions.

Although the 1st Artillery Battalion did not occupy any advantage in terms of numbers, the eight guns of the 1st Artillery Battalion were all heavy artillery, and their power and destructive power were not comparable to that of the Japanese artillery.

WITH A "BOOM", A 105MM CANNON BEGAN TO FIRE SHELLS, THE GROUND BEGAN TO SHAKE, DUST FLEW, AND A SHELL WAS IMMEDIATELY FIRED.

Like a large fireball, the shell quickly streaked through the air, and soon, the shell fell on the Japanese artillery position.

AS THE SHELL FELL TO THE GROUND, AN EXPLOSION SOUNDED, AND TWO JAPANESE 75MM MOUNTAIN GUNS WERE DESTROYED ON THE SPOT.
