In Nantou Village, the faces of the two captains of the Japanese army turned blue, and the tank squadron was annihilated, which made them feel that they had been greatly humiliated.

Looking at the circular fortifications inside the telescope, their eyes turned red, and then both of them put down the telescope at the same time.

They are both captains of the Shaozo Brigade, and both of them are officers who command thousands of devil soldiers, so they naturally have a certain military level.

They had already observed the situation in the vicinity before, this ring fortification was located in the center of Nantou Village, Nanzhuang Village, and Tianjing Village, and according to their judgment, this must be the regimental headquarters of the Pingding County Independent Regiment.

Especially after all ten tanks were destroyed, they were even more sure of this.

After some deliberation between the two of them, they took the tank squadron as the lead and sent four infantry squadrons and one machine gun squadron to participate in the battle, while they still had two infantry squadrons, a machine gun squadron, two artillery squadrons, an infantry artillery squadron and baggage troops around them.

However, after seeing the artillery fire of the ring fortifications, they realized that it was not easy for them to take this fortification.

"This must be the regimental headquarters of the China Independent Regiment, maybe Sun Weiguo, who gave His Excellency Commander Shouichi a headache in the North China Front, will also be here, if we can overcome the fortifications and capture Sun Weiguo alive, this will definitely be a great merit."

The captain of the Fourth Brigade of the Fourth Brigade of the Independent Mixed Brigade looked at the ring fortifications with burning eyes, and he said in an excited tone.

The encirclement and suppression operation of the Japanese troops against the Independent Regiment of Pingding County was a plan personally formulated by the North China Front Command, which shows how famous Sun Weiguo is.

The Japanese troops in North China may not know who the commanders of China's First and Second Theaters are, but when it comes to the name Sun Weiguo, the commander of the Japanese Army on the North China side, Terauchi Shouichi, down to the ordinary devil soldiers, few people do not know this name.

Sun Weiguo has become a big problem for the North China Front, and many devil soldiers and officers want to cut off Sun Weiguo's head and become their own military merit.

However, many officers of the Japanese army had fought with Sun Weiguo, but none of the Japanese officers were able to take advantage of Sun Weiguo.

Now the troops under the command of the two Japanese soldiers have captured Nantou Village, and their troops are approaching Sun Weiguo's headquarters, and the mood of the two Japanese soldiers can be imagined, in their eyes, the ring fortifications in front of them are their military exploits promoted to the rank of Zhongzuo.

"Mixi, take the ring fortifications, capture Sun Weiguo alive, and the credit is great. However, it will not be easy to take this ring of fortifications, and it seems that we will continue to send troops into the battle. ”

The Shao Zuo Captain of the First Brigade of the Second Infantry Wing of the Devil Garrison Corps had a fine light in his eyes, and he looked at the Shao Zuo officer on the side and said.

The two men looked at each other, and they both saw excitement in each other's eyes.

Break through the ring fortifications, capture Sun Weiguo alive, obtain the highest honor, and be promoted to the rank of Zhongzuo.

The two Shao Zuo had the same idea, and they immediately discussed, and after their deliberation, the Japanese army increased its troops again.

In order to be able to completely break through the ring fortifications, the two young men put all the forces in their hands, six infantry squadrons, two machine gun squadrons, two artillery squadrons, and one infantry artillery squadron, all of which were put into battle by them.

They wanted to rely on the Japanese army's famous wave tactics to break through the ring fortifications, and the two young men left more than 100 wounded around them, as well as more than 200 heavy soldiers, communication troops and other auxiliary troops.

They thought that no Chinese troops would appear in Nantou Village at this time, and that if they did, they would be able to quickly detect them, and they could quickly bring back the front-line troops.

In the eyes of the two young lieutenants, the Chinese troops rely on two legs to march, as long as they appear in their sight, then the front-line troops can quickly return to help.

And in their opinion, the troops of more than 1,000 people of the Independent Regiment were attacked by tens of thousands of Japanese troops, how could they still have troops to attack?

But the Japanese troops didn't know that Sun Weiguo had an armored force in his hands.

The battle in Chengguan Town, Pingding County, was in full swing, but Shaanxi, which is separated by a river from Shanxi, was silent.

The Japanese army captured most of Shanxi, and Yan Xishan, the native emperor of Shanxi, moved his theater commander headquarters to Shaanxi.

Because the relevant crossings of the Yellow River are currently in the hands of the Chinese troops, although the headquarters of the Second Theater Commander is in Shaanxi, his command of the Shanxi troops is still the same.

Yichuan County, Shaanxi, Qiulin Town, Second Theater Commander's Department.

Yan Xishan, the commander of the Second Theater of Operations who was wearing the uniform of a first-class general of the army, was having lunch at this time, and he didn't look at most of the discarded in Shanxi, but Yan Xishan was still able to enjoy a good life.

There were several decisive battles with the little devil in Shanxi, and the little devil's fierce offensive hit Yan Xishan without the power to parry, and hundreds of thousands of Jin Sui troops suffered heavy casualties, and at present, the Jin Sui army troops only added up to tens of thousands, and Yan Xishan's little heart almost failed to withstand such a blow.

"General, it has been figured out that the Japanese army has dispatched more than 10,000 people from their newly formed garrison corps to launch an encirclement and annihilation operation against the troops of the Independent Regiment of Pingding County of the Eighth Route Army, in addition to this garrison corps, the 20th Division near Pingding County also participated in the battle, and they were responsible for the task of encirclement."

While Yan Xishan was eating lunch, a man of about fifty years old wearing a lieutenant general's uniform walked in from outside.

This lieutenant general is none other than Zhu Shouguang, chief of staff of the Second Theater of Operations.

"What? What is this little devil doing, it is not enough for them to dispatch a garrison corps to deal with an infantry regiment, and they even send an infantry division to assist from the side, this little devil really looks down on the Pingding County Independent Regiment. ”

Hearing the report of Chief of Staff Zhu Shouguang, Yan Xishan put down his chopsticks, his face was not very good-looking, and he said in a sour tone.

At the beginning, the Japanese army initially attacked Shanxi, only one division of Itagaki Seishiro, and this division lacked an infantry brigade, that is to say, half of Itagaki Seishiro's division swept more than 100,000 Jin Sui troops and captured most of Shanxi.

Thinking of this incident, thinking that the Japanese army had dispatched tens of thousands of Japanese troops to deal with a regiment of the Eighth Route Army, Yan Xishan felt very uncomfortable.

"General seat, this infantry regiment is amazing, Sun Weiguo is a talent, but unfortunately he is a member of the Eighth Route Army, if he is in our Jin Sui Army, with this Sun Weiguo, our Jin Sui Army will definitely be able to strengthen its wings."

Zhu Shouguang was the chief of staff of the Second Theater, and he was familiar with all the battles that took place in the Second Theater.

Zhu Shouguang knows the achievements of Sun Weiguo's independent regiment very well, and he can see at a glance that Sun Weiguo is a rare general.
