Chapter 46: Valuable Intelligence

The night was full of fighting and a rapid march, and the soldiers were tired, but their morale was unprecedentedly high. Yesterday, with a force of more than 2,500 troops, they completely annihilated more than 3,000 Japanese troops, and they were also elite Japanese troops equipped with tanks and armored vehicles, but their own casualties were negligible.

Ma Zheng saw that the sky was already bright, and the next thing would be the world of Japanese planes, so Ma Zheng ordered all the troops to rest in the mountain pass.

Of course, rest is rest, but the special operations team was thrown out by Ma Zheng. After all, the troops had just arrived in Yangwon, and they knew nothing about the situation at the front. It is necessary to send a strong reconnaissance force to understand the enemy's situation and point out the direction for the troops' next actions.

At noon, Tie Niu and the others came back, but the situation was not optimistic.

In the mountain col, Ma Zheng, Huang Bingyan, and Wu Xiuda sat on the ground, while Tie Niu was half-squatting in front of them, and a military map was placed in the middle of the four. The most eye-catching thing is that there are two aluminum lunch boxes next to the map, and there are two boxes full of cooked meat.

Ma Zheng pointed to the meat in the lunch box and said to Tie Niu: "I'm tired, eat some horse meat to pad my stomach first, and then talk about it when I'm full, anyway, even if it's an action, I have to wait until it's dark." ”

"Hahaha, I'm thinking about these horse meat on the road, it's a pity that I killed so many war horses yesterday, and I only took a little bit with me when I left, it's a pity!" Tie Niu said with a smile.

"Look at your little bit of talent, isn't it just a bit of horse meat, as for it?" Ma Zheng said with a smile.

After devouring two large pieces of meat, Tie Niu said: "In the morning, we went around the periphery of several strongholds garrisoned by the Japanese army, and also listened to the phone calls of the little devils, and basically determined our current location. ”

"There is no other valuable information, how is the battle situation on the front?" Ma Zheng continued to ask.

"Yes, the battle situation on the front line is not optimistic, according to the daily battle situation report of the Japanese army, the headquarters transferred a large number of reinforcements from the southeast of Shanxi, and the 14th Division of the Japanese army was pinned down by these reinforcements on the front line of Laiyuan and Lingqiu. However, the two infantry wings of the 20th Division of the Japanese army penetrated deep into the hinterland of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, and had already captured Guangling and Hunyuan a few days ago. ”

At the same time, about a reinforced brigade of the Japanese army moved all the way west from the direction of Wei County, blocking the eastward route of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region. The Japanese army's independent mixed second brigade of about 4,000 people was deployed in the area from Yangyuan to Wei County, blocking the road to the north of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region. Coupled with the Japanese troops on the front line of Datong and Huairen, the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region was basically trapped by the Japanese army. Tie Niu said in a deep voice.

"It's really not very optimistic, so have you spotted where the Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region stands?"

"No, the Japanese army is looking for them now!" Iron Bull Road.

As soon as Tie Niu's words fell, Wu Xiuda couldn't help but say: "Detachment leader, we are here to save people, what should we do if we can't find anyone now?" ”

Ma Zheng thought for a while and said, "It's okay, as long as we start fighting here, they will naturally know." ”

Huang Bingyan said suddenly: "Detachment leader, have you ever thought about it, if we make too little noise, they may not be able to know, and if it is too big, the little devils will definitely know." When the time comes, if they send troops to cut off our back road, then we will be in danger. ”

Ma Zheng smiled and said, "The little devils want to do something, but how can they have soldiers." The Japanese army invading China has so many troops, and this time the encirclement and suppression of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region can be regarded as a spout of the nest, so there are still troops to intercept our back road? ”

"Isn't there still two wings in the 26th Division, they only need to deploy two infantry brigades on the front line of Tianzhen to trap us to death!" Huang Bingyan said again.

Ma Zheng shook his head and said: "There are only three infantry wings in the 26th Division, and now one has been annihilated by us, and the remaining two have to defend more than a dozen big cities, including Datong, especially when the 120th Division is still active in Zuoyun and Youyu, they will definitely not dare to transfer troops to besiege us." ”

Wu Xiuda glanced at Huang Bingyan and said impatiently: "I said that you kid has so many problems, since the detachment leader said that there is no problem, then it must be no problem, let's think about how to let those guys in the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region know that we are here!" ”

Ma Zheng glanced at Wu Xiuda and said, "You guy, pay attention to what you say, pay attention to unity!" ”

Wu Xiuda smiled and said, "Lao Huang won't care, right?" ”

Huang Bingyan glanced at him helplessly, and said: "If I have the same knowledge as you, then it's no wonder that I am not angry, you have such a stinky temper, you have long been used to it!" ”

"Hahaha, did you hear the detachment leader, Lao Huang is not as stingy as you think!" Wu Xiuda said happily.

", that being said, you kid can't always be so open-mouthed, otherwise sooner or later you'll offend people." Ma Zheng said.

At this time, Tie Niu suddenly said: "Detachment leader, we got a piece of information when we went out to reconnoiter this time, maybe it will be useful to us!" ”

"What information?" Ma Zheng hurriedly asked.

"By listening to the phone calls of the Japanese army, we learned that the Japanese army was going to send a group of prisoners to a place called Dashagou, although the little devil just said this, but I judge that the little devil must have a place to hold prisoners in this place, but I don't know if this place is worth our hands!" Iron Bull Road.

"This information has some value!"

As he spoke, Ma Zheng began to search carefully on the map, and soon found this place north of Yangyuan.

Pointing to this point on the map, Ma Zheng said: "This place is about 20 kilometers away from the county seat, and there are coal mines here, so I think those prisoners must have been imprisoned here to mine coal." And this is between us and Yangyuan County, it is a necessary place for us, Tie Niu, you immediately send someone here to take a look, if it is worth it, then fight, if it is not worth it, continue to lurk, wait for the fighter! ”

"Detachment leader, how do you know that there is a coal mine in this place, have you ever been to this place?" Wu Xiuda asked in surprise.

Ma Zheng shook his head and said, "I said that you guys will have to read the book well in the future, especially this map, you have to figure it out for me, otherwise your position will be the captain at most." ”

"Why?"

"Because the question you just asked me is all on the map, do you see that black square, that is the sign of coal, since there is coal and it has been marked on the map by the Japanese army, it means that this must be a rich mine, do you understand?" Ma Zheng said.

"Understood, it turns out that there are so many doorways on the map, you can teach me when you go back!"

"No problem, when I go back, I'll hold an officer training class and teach you these dirt buns well!" Ma Zheng said.

Then Ma Zheng asked again: "Tie Niu, how many devil troops are there in Yangyuan County?" ”

"I don't know, the little devil didn't say it on the phone, but I don't think it should be too much. The main forces of the Japanese army have scattered out to pursue the Jinchaji Military Region, and Yangyuan County is still far from the battlefield, so the main force of the Japanese army should not be here. Iron Bull replied.

"It makes sense, then let's take a look first, if we can, take down Yangyuan County, and the little devil will definitely panic at that time." At that time, their iron wall was like a broken sieve, full of loopholes, and that old thing at Shouichi Terauchi would definitely order the withdrawal of troops, and our mission was successfully completed. Ma Zheng said.

"Well, that's it!"
