At 5:30 a.m. on September 20, 1938, the 114th Division and Independent Garrison of the Japanese Army in Mengxian County broke through the blocking troops of the Second Army Division and the Fourth Army Division of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region.

With the Japanese 114th Division and the Independent Garrison breaking through the blocking force, these two Japanese troops were the follow-up Japanese troops that entered Wutai County after the First Division, and at this time, Sun Weiguo's Honorary Second Division had begun to face the attack of the Japanese First Division, the 114th Division, and the Independent Garrison.

Of course, at present, the troops of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region are also under tremendous pressure, and the Japanese 110th Division and the Independent Mixed Fourth Brigade have begun to attack Laiyuan County and Fuping County, while the Japanese Army's 21st Division and the Independent Mixed Third Brigade have also entered Pingshan County through Meng County, and the 21st Division and the Independent Mixed Third Brigade are marching towards Fuping County through Pingshan County.

Commander Nie had already begun to transfer the main force of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region to meet the troops of two divisions and two brigades, and the situation was even worse there.

Fortunately, this time, the Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region did not have to engage in a decisive battle with the Japanese army, they only needed to delay the speed of the Japanese army's attack and consume the Japanese army's physical strength.

It can be said that the house leak happened to rain overnight, and the ship was late and encountered a head wind, and not long after the Japanese independent garrison entered Chenjiazhuang Township, Wutai County, there was no good news from Dai County again.

There were the 26th and 109th divisions of the Japanese army in Dai County, and the troops of the 120th Division of the Eighth Route Army were responsible for blocking them.

Although there are more than 30,000 troops in the 120th Division, there is still a big gap between the weapons and equipment of the Japanese army, especially the 109th Division of the Japanese Army, which is a special division.

The Japanese army had two divisions in Dai County, and after they were blocked by the 120th Division, the Japanese 26th Division was pinned down from the front, and the 109th Division was detoured from the flank.

However, as the troops of the 120th Division moved their positions, the Japanese 109th Division began to march rapidly towards Wutai County, and the Japanese 26th Division was responsible for covering the 109th Division's actions after the break, and maintained a certain speed in the direction of Wutai County.

It should be noted here that the Japanese army marched about 50 kilometers a day with a single soldier, which the little devils could easily do; if they were to carry out a campaign and with the assistance of auxiliary troops, the little devils could march 100 kilometers a day, while the Chinese troops would be about 45 kilometers at most, and if they were forced to march, they would be at most 65 kilometers a day.

Of course, the Japanese army is much worse than the Eighth Route Army troops who are good at marching, and the Eighth Route Army can march up to 80 kilometers every day, and running fast is the first element of guerrilla warfare.

The Japanese 109th Division launched a forced march, and the 120th Division was naturally able to catch up, but with the 26th Division in charge of the break, the 120th Division could only watch the 109th Division march towards Wutai County, and they could only be forced to carry out harassment warfare and guerrilla warfare to cut off the follow-up supplies of the Japanese army.

At half past six o'clock in the afternoon of 20 September, Commander He of the 120th Division and Commander Nie of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region formally issued an order that the operations in Mengxian and Daixian would be mainly mobile warfare and guerrilla warfare, and that the 109th Division, 26th Division, and 114th Division, and the 114th Division of the Japanese Army would be restrained and attacked.

Wutai County, Honorary Second Division.

Chief of Staff Zhao Lerong immediately marked the movements of the Japanese army on the map according to the reports of various departments and the news transmitted by the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region and the 120th Division, and then Zhao Lerong looked at Sun Weiguo, and a solemn expression appeared on his face.

It is not difficult to see from the map that the first division of the Japanese army has begun to enter the western part of Wutai County, while the 114th Division and the independent garrison of the Japanese army have entered the southern part of Wutai County, and the troops of the 26th and 109th divisions of the Japanese army have begun to march towards the northern part of Wutai County.

"Division commander, if the 26th and 109th Divisions of the Japanese Army in Dai County enter Wutai County, I am afraid that we will be under great pressure here, and maybe the defense of Wutai County will be disrupted by the Japanese army. At present, the troops of the 1st Division of the Japanese Army have given up the attack on Yangbai Township, and their main force should pass through Heishiling and Wolf Mountain, and it will be difficult for the Unknown Regiment to stop them. ”

Sun Weiguo didn't speak for a long time, Zhao Lerong pointed to the location of Dai County on the map, and he reported softly.

"The 1st Division, the 26th Division and the 109th Division should ignore them first, Chief of Staff, now the Japanese independent garrison is alone in the area of Chenjiazhuang Township, if we lure them to the depth and eat them first, it will be a devastating blow to the morale of the Japanese army, and it will also be beneficial to our next battle."

Hearing the words of Chief of Staff Zhao Lerong, Sun Weiguo looked at the locations of Dai County and Yangbai Township, and then he pointed to the location of Chenjiazhuang Township and said.

The Tianyuan Kuohai Independent Garrison was the starting point for the vanguard force, and they had entered the area of Chenjiazhuang Township, which was an ungarrisoned area of the Honorary Second Division.

Sun Weiguo planned to attract the independent garrison into the deep area of Wutai County, so as to completely encircle and annihilate them.

If the independent garrison can be eaten, it will be a great blow to the morale of the Japanese army, and at the same time, it will also be beneficial for the next battle.

Of course, how to eat the independent garrison of the Japanese army, this requires Sun Weiguo to deploy carefully, after all, the Japanese army will not go deep easily.

"Division commander, the little devils have been scared by us, and the Japanese independent garrison according to the intelligence department, they are adapted from the first brigade of the Kunomura Momoyo Independent Melee, this little devil is very familiar with us, I'm afraid they won't easily come to our in-depth defense." Zhao Lerong said with a worried face.

Although Momoyo Kunomura was transferred, his troops of the 1st Independent Mixed Combat Brigade were reorganized into an independent garrison.

Officers such as Chief of Staff Hattori Chiaki and others remained in the army, and these Japanese officers knew the Honorary Second Division very well, and it would take a certain degree of difficulty to let them be fooled.

What's more, the independent garrison is still followed by the Japanese 114th Division, and there are already troops of the first division in Wutai County, so it is not easy to fight the independent garrison at this time.

"The current situation is completely incapable of eating the independent garrison of the Japanese army, we will think like this, the Japanese army will also think like this, if we do it, we will definitely catch the Japanese army off guard, we have a chance." Sun Weiguo said firmly, he just wanted to catch the Japanese army off guard.
