A large realm model raid battle. , M/Let the North China faction leek army be busy, the North Beiji Imaguchigawa Huo Liming, and Nishio Shou Poison Tian stayed in the headquarters, trying to figure out the strategic intentions of the Eighth Route Army, and the chief of staff, Yukio Kasawara, commanded the staff officers to mark small flags on the map.

"Shanxi reported that the Lingqiu garrison had lost contact, and the reinforcements sent from Taiyuan were stubbornly resisted by the Eighth Route Army and suffered heavy casualties."

"Almost all the garrisons along Zhengtai Road have lost contact, and it is estimated that all of them are broken."

"Huai'an, Beisha, and Yaojian were attacked by Yang Chengwu's department of the Eighth Route Army, and the defenders were all jade. Broken. ”

"The Eighth Route Army Division appeared on the periphery of Datong, and all isolated strongholds were attacked"

Tatsunosuke's dry voice echoed in the war room, and one telegram after another telegram showed the seriousness of the situation, and then another telegram was sent to Takanosuke's assistant, and Tatsunosuke couldn't help but be stunned after seeing it, and his voice stopped abruptly, and Nishio Shouzo, who was discussing the situation with Kasawara Shino, quickly realized it.

"Ligaojun." Nishio Shouzo's voice was obviously dissatisfied, and Tachitakanosuke smiled bitterly: "The Tokyo Military Department telegraphed that the German ** affairs inspection delegation will come to Beiping in two days, and let us receive it seriously." All help is provided. ”

Nishio Shouzao couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this, he walked over quickly, took the telegram, and thought about it: "What is the German delegation doing in Beiping?" Didn't they go to Manchuria? ”

Germany sent a twelve-member delegation to Japan in mid-May, and this delegation arrived in Japan through Soviet Russia, and the delegation negotiated with the military top brass on Japanese soil, and then secretly went to Manchukuo in the name of inspecting Manchuria's resources, but the content of the negotiations was top secret, and neither the North China Dispatch Army nor the Nanjing Dispatch Army Commander-in-Chief knew about it, and now he suddenly came to Beiping, which made Nishio Shouzo feel very sudden and very incomprehensible, especially at this time.

"I'll talk about this later" Nishio Shouzo put down the telegram and looked up at Ligao Nosuke: "Ligao-kun, it seems that you have always been right, we still ignored the development of the Eighth Route Army in North China. ”

Tatetakanosuke has been emphasizing the threat of the Eighth Route Army in North China in these eastern areas, but Nishio Shouzo and Tada Jun have not attracted enough attention, and Nishio Shouzo has been better, organizing several sweeps of Tsubasa and Inan, but in the bottom of his heart, he still lacks attention to the strength of the Eighth Route Army.

Tatsutakanosuke didn't answer, just silently waited for Nishio Shouzo to continue.

"Ligaojun, what do you suggest?" Nishio Shouzo put his hands behind his back and looked at Tachitaka Nosuke.

"The lowly position believes that there are two things that must be taken now: first, to increase the number of troops and immediately open up the communication; The second order was to immediately shrink the isolated points to the nearby county seats, and after the Eighth Route Army received the support of the central government of China, its ability to attack the fortifications was greatly enhanced, and ordinary strongholds could no longer stop them, and they could only rely on strong city walls. Almost immediately, Takanosuke threw out the countermeasures he had thought of earlier.

Nishio Shouzo nodded slightly, these two items were also proposed by Kasahara Yukio just now, and now with the support of Tachitakanosuke, he no longer hesitated: "Kasahara-kun, immediately give an order to transfer the 47th Division and the 53rd Division to Lixuan to advance westward, attack and advance along the Zhengtai Line, and after entering Shanxi, plan the command of the First Army." Ordered the Big Bear Mixed Brigade to enter Zhangjiakou and sweep the periphery of Zhangjiakou. The 24th Division and the 33rd Division were ordered to conduct a sweeping operation against the Eighth Route Army in the south of the Yinan. The 34th Division and the 6th Division of the Imperial Allied Army were ordered to sweep the 8th Road in the wing. ”

Tatsutakanosuke knew that although Nishio Shouzo ordered a sweep, this sweep was hastily organized and focused on revenge, and since the Eighth Route Army had organized such a big battle, it was impossible not to be prepared.

"Commander, what about the telegram from Tokyo?" Tatsutakanosuke was reluctant to give up on that strange telegram, there must be a great reason for this German ** affairs group, he wanted to know what it was?

"The day after tomorrow" Nishio Shouzao was silent, he definitely didn't have time, Kasahara Yukio wanted to help him draw up a counterattack plan, the deputy chief of staff had already flown to Taiyuan, came to the front line in person, hesitated for a moment and then made up his mind and said: "Ligao-kun, let you receive them on behalf of the dispatch army, well, let Nishimura-kun go too." ”

Litakanosuke was secretly happy in his heart, he didn't expect this kind of good thing to fall on him like this, at this time Kasahara Yukio said next to him: "Commander, let's let Nishimura go, Litaka Jun is more familiar with the Eighth Route Army in North China." ”

Nishio Shouzo nodded: "Then that's it, Litaka-kun, you just stay and let Nishimura go." Ligao nosuke nodded helplessly, another batch of telegrams arrived in his hand, he quickly read the content of the telegram, and then looked up and said to Nishio Shouzo: "Commander, chief of staff, Daixian He, Fanzhi, Shangdu, and Huili were attacked by Liu Bocheng's troops of the Eighth Route Army, Lanxian and Shenwu were attacked by Helong's troops, Niangziguan and Jingjing Coal Mines were lost, and the garrison was all shattered. ”

"Eight grids!" Nishio Shouzao cursed hatefully, and Yukio Kasahara frowned: "Your Excellency, order the defenders to hold on, and at the same time order the sixty-second division to stand and reinforce it." ”

Tatsunosuke looked at the state on the sand table

Thinking silently, Nishio Shouzao gave a series of orders in an effort to stabilize the situation, and Yukio Kuchihara turned this order into a series of written orders, and the war room was busy again.

When the Eighth Route Army launched an attack, Nishimura was severely reprimanded by Nishio Shouzo, believing that the intelligence department had not been able to discover the movements of the Eighth Route Army in time, which was a serious dereliction of duty, and if it had not been for the intercession of Tatetakanosuke, I am afraid that he would have been ordered to plead guilty.

"Nishimura-kun, is there any news that makes me happy?" Nishio Shouzo asked coldly, although he agreed to let Nishimura receive the German delegation just now, but seeing him, Nishio Shouzao was still a little unhappy in his heart.

"We have obtained top-secret information on the second phase of the Eighth Route Army's operational strategy." Nishimura said this very freely, during this time he went crazy to find the information of the Eighth Route Army, and regardless of the use of all the intelligence personnel, this is the only way to have this information, and he can finally make a difference in front of Nishio Shouzo.

When Nishio Shouzo heard this, he didn't care about the commander's dignified majesty, grabbed it in a few steps, and grabbed the information in Nishimura's hand. This information is not very detailed, but it is very true.

The second phase of the Eighth Route Army's operational objectives were to continue to expand the results of the battle, pull out the Japanese strongholds isolated in the base areas, and demand the recovery of Wutai, Yudu, and other strongholds inserted into the base areas, so as to eliminate the living forces of the Japanese army; Specifically, He Longbu attacked Tongpu Road, attacked Ningwu, Shenchi and other places; The Jinchayi troops attacked the Lailing Highway, focusing on attacking the county towns of Laiyuan and Lingqiu; Liu Bocheng's troops attacked Yudu and Liao County, and Ye Ting's troops attacked Pinghan Road and attacked Shexian, Licheng and other county seats.

"Good, good!" Nishio Shouzao is overjoyed, since he knows the deployment of the Eighth Route Army, although it is not detailed enough, it is better than a black eye. Nishio Shouzo Chong Nishimura bowed slightly: "Hard work, Nishimura-kun." ”

Nishimura respectfully replied: "If you serve the empire, you should do your best." Nishio Shouzo turned around and handed the information to Yukio Kasahara and Yukio Tahitaka, Yukio Kasahara was also very excited, and Nosuke Tachio looked at the situation map while looking at it, and finally had to admit that this information was likely to be true.

"Congratulations, Nishimura-kun, with this information, we can salvage the situation." Tatsutakanosuke said happily to Nishimura.

"Report" Without waiting for Nishimura to give in, the staff officer sent another report, Tatsutakanosuke took it, and couldn't help but gasp, he turned around and walked to Nishio Shouzo and whispered: "Commander, the East Regiment Fort is lost, teach all the jade shatters in the brigade." ”

"What?" Nishio Shouzo turned to stare at Tachitakanosuke, snatched the telegram, and saw that it was a telegram from the defenders of Higashituanbao, "Long live His Majesty the Emperor!" Long live the Great Japanese Empire! These thirteen words were like thirteen knives, bloody piercing his heart.

Dongtuan Fort is in the east of Laiyuan County, the terrain is dangerous, deep ditches and high fortifications, and the defenders are the elite second mixed brigade non-commissioned officer teaching brigade, with more than 200 instructors, plus a total strength of more than 800 soldiers, and the combat effectiveness is more than double that of the ordinary brigade. From the defenders to the mixed brigade to the headquarters of the Beiping Dispatch Army, they all had great confidence in the defense here. It can be thought that the attack of the Eighth Route Army was so ferocious, and such a strong fortress was conquered in just two days.

This battle terrified both Nishio Shouzo and Kasawara Yukio, which showed that the Eighth Route Army's ability to attack the fortified positions had far exceeded their estimates.

"Bastard!" Nishio Shouzo gritted his teeth, a little angry, Kasawara Yukio sighed lightly and pointed to the situation map and said: "Your Excellency, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, we didn't know about the Eighth Route Army before, but now that we know it, we will have a way to deal with them in the future." Commander, I suggest that Lixuan sweep the Taihang Mountains in the wings, and that the main forces of the Eighth Route Army are mostly fighting on the outer front, and the interior of the base area must be empty, and we can also achieve a surprise attack. ”

"The chief of staff is right," Tatsutakanosuke also added: "In the past, we couldn't find the main force of the Eighth Route every time we swept up, but now they jump out on their own, and we sweep with heavy troops, and the Eighth Route Army will definitely come back to help, so that we can capture the main force of the Eighth Route and have a decisive battle with them, annihilate them in one fell swoop, and completely eliminate the hidden dangers in North China." ”

Nishio Shouzao quickly transferred four divisions from the Shandong and Henan fronts to sweep Yizhong, Yidong and Taihang Mountains respectively, but to Nishio Shouzao's surprise, the sweep of the base area in Yizhong was very smooth, just like in the past, the Eighth Route Army in Yizhong avoided fighting, leaving a small force to maneuver with the main force of the Japanese army in the base area, but the main force jumped to the Jinpu line and launched a large-scale sabotage attack again. However, under the command of Ye Ting, the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army in Yinan fought with the Japanese army in the base area, seized the weakness of the Japanese army's division of troops, and annihilated the two Japanese brigades in Yutangmiao and Xilin Town in succession.
