After discussion, the North China Front Command asked Tojo Hideki to suspend the attack, and at the same time sent part of the troops to attack Taiyuan along the Zhengtai Road, if Niangzi Pass was taken, it could directly threaten the rear of the Chinese army at Xinkou.

At that time, the Chinese army will be attacked from the belly, while the Imperial Japanese Army will be able to attack from both sides, and will have a considerable tactical advantage.

Of course, Hideki Tojo's side suspended the offensive, not to do nothing and wait, while maintaining a frontal containment and deterrence of the Chinese army, it was necessary to send more forces to search for and attack Wei Qidong.

During this time, the Japanese side can also modify more night planes to deal with the aftermath of Wei Qidong's failure to get rid of him.

"The little devil has paused his attack?" When the news of the suspension of the Japanese offensive reached Taiyuan, Yan Laoxi seemed to be in disbelief, he had a lot of dealings with the Japanese, and he knew the arrogance of this nation.

At this critical moment of such a big war, the two armies are facing each other, and how difficult it is for the Japanese to suspend their attack on the Chinese army, and they are eager to swallow China in one go, how can they be willing to waste time at will and hesitate.

"It seems that the little devil was also overwhelmed by this heavy casualty." After thinking about it for a while, Yan Laoxi analyzed the reason, if the casualties in each battle are similar to those of the Chinese army, or even higher than the Chinese army, then what do they use to fight with China?

Since the attack on Shanxi, the little devil has had several battles with more than 5,000 casualties, and these troops are all elite, and the little devil has to suffer no matter how martial he is. You must know that the Japanese troops who attacked Shanxi at the beginning were only more than 50,000 people, and if it wasn't for the reinforcement led by Hideki Tojo later, these 50,000 people don't know how many people would have left.

The statistics of the losses of the Japanese army were not revealed, but the Chinese side calculated for them, and the Japanese losses in the Battle of Tianzhen must have exceeded 10,000. Before the Battle of Xinkou, the scale of the battles experienced by the Japanese army during this period was smaller, and the Chinese army was not well prepared, so the losses suffered by the Japanese army were smaller, but they must have added up to more than 5,000 casualties.

In the end, it was the unfinished Battle of Xinkou, the little devil was challenged like never before, Sakagaki was killed in battle, and the casualties of the Japanese army that night directly exceeded 10,000.

Then, Wei Qidong cooperated with the troops led by Commander Hao of the central position, and achieved brilliant results for two consecutive nights, with a conservative estimate of more than 6,000 Japanese soldiers killed and wounded on the first night, and more than 7,000 on the second night. All in all, the little devil has lost more than 40,000 since he stepped into Shanxi.

In other words, if you don't count the troops brought by Hideki Tojo and the soldiers added later, the main force led by Seishiro Sakagaki is basically gone, and they all go together to meet their Amaterasu.

The scale of the battles in Shanxi was far less than the scale of the ongoing Battle of Songhu, but the losses caused to the Japanese army were even greater than those of the Battle of Songhu. According to conservative estimates, the Japanese army lost more than 300 planes in Shanxi. This was still when the battle exploits were counted, and the Chinese side did not know the number of Japanese planes destroyed by Wei Qidong's night attack, otherwise, there would have been more than 300 planes.

Although these losses to the Japanese army were inseparable from Wei Qidong and Tang Xinyi's night raids and bombing, Wei Qidong and Tang Xinyi also knew very well that without the strong support of Taiyuan and Nanjing and Song Xiaoya, no matter how strong the two of them were, they would not have achieved such a record, and they would not even be able to save their lives.

The Battle of Shanxi once again proved a truth: the united Chinese nation can defeat all powerful enemies.

Yan Laoxi was very satisfied with Shanxi's answers, and Chairman Jiang was also very satisfied, and Chairman Jiang directly made an exception and promoted Wei Qidong's military rank to lieutenant general and Tang Xinyi to major general in a short period of time.

"The heroes of the Anti-Japanese War, the dragon and the phoenix among the people...... Chairman Jiang waved his pen and wrote these eight words to Wei Qidong and Tang Xinyi, giving them a very high evaluation.

The Chinese side was hyping up the major victories they had achieved in Shanxi, and the Japanese were even more angry, and Shanghai could not take it, and now it could not even take Shanxi, and even paid such a heavy price, and the face of the Japanese Imperial Army could be said to have been completely lost in Shanxi.

Wei Qidong and Tang Xinyi didn't care about the ups and downs outside, they were not complacent about some military achievements, and they were not slacking off because of the Japanese army's suspended attack, and the two were still studying the next tactics.

That night, the two of them flew the Apache again, first came to the airfield of the Japanese army in Shanxi, and took a closer look at it in a low-key manner, but still did not find the plane.

"It seems that the little devil is really smart, and the planes at these airports have been transferred away at night, and now the airports in Shanxi have become a transit station, and the planes are not stationed at all for a long time." Wei Qidong sighed.

In fact, every few days Wei Qidong would come to the Japanese airfield to take a look, but since the last time he caused heavy losses to the Japanese planes, the little devils have completely learned to behave, these airports that are easy to be bombed, there is not a single plane in sight at night, and it is obvious that they are transferred before the evening.

This news was also further confirmed by Song Xiaoya, and the intelligence officers in the rear would have discovered that a large number of Japanese planes were flying to the east in the evening, where Hebei and Pingjin were located. Moreover, Song Xiaoya also guessed that the Japanese army had fuel at the airport, but it was very likely that it was stored underground.

"Brother Dong, look, is that arched building a hangar under construction?" Tang Xinyi pointed to the huge arched buildings on the edge of the airport and said.

"Definitely. It doesn't look like it's been built yet, so let's talk about it when the little devil builds it. "Wei Qidong has already calculated that the little devil is using various methods to prevent him from attacking at night, transfer is one thing, and building a hangar is another, but will these two methods definitely stop him Wei Qidong?

"Xinyi, to the east." Wei Qidong said directly.

"Understood." Tang Xinyi immediately raised the altitude, then turned around and flew towards Hebei.

Although he knew that the plane at Zhangjiakou Airport was also likely to be transferred, Wei Qidong decided to take a look. Sure enough, after the Apache circled around Zhangjiakou Airport for a while, he didn't find the plane, so there was no need to look at Gaoyang Airport, it must be the same.

"Let's go, go to Beiping......"

After stopping in the wilderness to refuel once, the Apache quickly rushed in the direction of Beiping.

"Nanyuan Airport, ...... here" Wei Qidong quickly marked the location, and Tang Xinyi immediately realized that in order to ensure that the fuel was sufficient, the Apache landed in a wilderness closest to Nanyuan and filled it with fuel.
