In the distance, in the woods.

Many little devils in yellow military uniforms were happily drinking and eating meat, and the 20 or so "Eighth Route Army" were also taking off their Eighth Route Army uniforms.

Many little devils talk and laugh, eat meat, and drink wine.

Seeing this scene, these militiamen of Xiaojia Village were extremely angry in their hearts, just now, the villagers were still enthusiastically slaughtering sheep and cattle, and many women and old people were helping to barbecue meat, but they didn't think about it, these things are now all in the mouths of these little devils.

The "Eighth Route Army" just now was dressed up by these little devils, it's so hateful!

After carefully observing for a few minutes, the militia captain took the other two militiamen back to Xiaojia Village in a pretty manner, and as soon as he returned to Xiaojia Village, the middle-aged militia captain immediately rode a fast horse and ran towards the Ulan bus, which was less than ten kilometers away from here.

A company of the local garrison brigade of the 36th Army was stationed in Ulan Daba, and there was also a radio station to which the situation could be reported immediately.

After receiving the report of this militia captain, there were actually hundreds of little devil cavalry in Xiaojia Village, and the company commander of the local garrison brigade did not dare to slack off, and immediately reported the situation to his superiors on the radio.

Datong, the headquarters of the 36th Army.

Several days of bombing and air strikes have killed tens of thousands of little devils, and now the flying group is bombing some small devil fortifications on the outskirts of Beiping and Tianjin.

At present, Zhang Yunfei and other high-ranking officials of the 36th Group Army are discussing the battle situation in the command hall, and the telegrams sent back from the front line are constantly being sent back.

"Commander-in-Chief! Our air strikes in the past few days have had a very obvious effect, and the little devils have suffered heavy casualties, and it is estimated that in a few more days, the little devils will definitely not be able to hold on. ”

The 200,000 little devils in the Beijing and Tianjin areas are facing fierce bombing and air strikes from the 36 th Group Army every day, and in just a few days, tens of thousands of little devils have died, and it is estimated that there will be no more than 200,000 little devils in the Beijing and Tianjin areas now.

Hearing this, Zhang Yunfei nodded lightly, and Zhang Yunfei couldn't help but think of a war that occurred in later generations - the Gulf War.

During the Gulf War, the multinational forces headed by the United States, with absolute air superiority, carried out a fierce bombardment of Iraq for 30 to 40 days, destroying almost all of Iraq's military installations and inflicting heavy losses on Iraq's troops.

This time, Zhang Yunfei's fierce bombing of the little devils in Beijing and Tianjin had the flavor of imitating the Gulf War, and now Zhang Yunfei felt that such an effect had been achieved in just a few days, and Zhang Yunfei felt that it was not strange at all.

However, several high-ranking members of the rest of the 36th Group Army almost admired Zhang Yunfei's tactics, and now, before hundreds of thousands of ground troops began to attack, the little devils suffered heavy casualties, which greatly surprised everyone.

Deputy Commander-in-Chief Liu Dazhu was also slightly excited in his heart, and the achievements made by the flying brigade had already made Comrade Liu Dazhu very happy and joyful.

Comrade Liu Dazhu was beaming, "Commander-in-chief, if our air raid is carried out for another ten days and half a month, and the little devils don't need us to attack, it is estimated that it will have completely collapsed." ”

What Comrade Liu Dazhu said is completely in line with the truth, but Zhang Yunfei did not plan to carry out the bombing for such a long time; now, with high-density air strikes every day, two or three hundred Mustang fighters are dispatched in turn, and the consumption of ammunition and fuel is very alarming, and the stocks of ammunition and fuel are not enough to support such a long bombing.

So, Zhang Yunfei smiled lightly, "Comrades, our plan is to carry out such a dense bombing and strike for another five days, and in the past few days, we have already consumed more than one-third of our ammunition and fuel stocks. ”

Hearing this, everyone secretly regretted that this kind of tactic was good, but the consumption was too great, and the 36th Group Army had a strong foundation, so it could only carry out such bombing for a few more days.

Everyone was happily discussing and exchanging the battle situation on the front line, and a correspondent walked in quickly, with a straight face, and reported loudly: "Chief, the first brigade of the local garrison in Jining has sent a telegram that the traces of a small devil cavalry brigade have been found near the Ulan bus in the northeast of Jining. ”

After saying that, the correspondent respectfully handed over the telegram and stood quietly aside.

Zhang Yunfei took the telegram and looked at it carefully, and then Zhang Yunfei walked to the huge military map, and Comrade Zuo Qingquan, chief of the General Staff, hurriedly found out the location of the Ulan bus.

Zhang Yunfei thought about it carefully and said affirmatively: "Lao Zuo, this is estimated to be the vanguard of the Kwantung Army, it seems that Mitsu Mijiro really started the idea of our base area." ”

Hearing this, Comrade Zuo Qingquan next to him also nodded in agreement, "Commander-in-chief, I also estimate that this is a force that came to attack us secretly, and it may be just a vanguard force, and there is a large army behind." "Well, yes, it should be a vanguard force, these little devils may have marched at night, rested during the day, evaded our aerial reconnaissance, and now the vanguard has reached the vicinity of Ulan Daba, then the large army after it should not be far away."

Zhang Yunfei nodded in agreement, agreeing with the opinion of Chief of Staff Zuo.

Comrade Deng Wenping, director of the General Political Department next to him, was full of concern, "Commander-in-chief, how should we deal with this unit of the Kwantung Army?" ”

Zhang Yunfei thought for a moment and decided: "Since the little devil Kwantung Army has sent it to the door again, then we have to laugh at it, we have to let these little devils go and have no return." ”

"In this way, we pretend not to know for the time being, send troops to spy on them secretly, let them in, and wait for them to pass Jining and get close to Datong, and then we will make their dumplings, this time, we will fight behind closed doors."

Zhang Yunfei had a firm face and decided to eliminate all these little devils and not let any of them go.

The base area of the 36th Group Army is huge and has a very deep strategic depth, so it is completely possible to let these little devils in and clean them up when they are only 100 kilometers away from Datong.

At that time, the little devils will be deep in the hinterland of the 36th Group Army's base area, and even if they want to escape, they will have no way but to be obediently wiped out.

As soon as Zhang Yunfei finished speaking, everyone knew Zhang Yunfei's intentions, and everyone thought in their hearts, this time, the commander-in-chief wanted to eat these little devils in one bite, but I don't know what the specific scale of these little devils is, but since the little devils dare to go deep into our hinterland, the scale will definitely not be small.

In the early morning of July 5, south of Jining and east of Fengzhen, on a small hill called Dongmenling, Major General Fujita Shigeichi, commander of the Fifth Cavalry Brigade of the Kwantung Army, was resting with a satisfied face.

Around, there were a lot of little devils, and the little devils drove for almost a night overnight, and the large army all successfully bypassed Jining.

Now, the sky is slightly bright, and the plan of the little devils is to rest for two or three hours, and then launch a surprise attack on Datong, where the big army of the little devils is located, only sixty or seventy kilometers away from Datong.

Such a short distance is nothing at all for cavalry and chariots with strong mobile surnames, and even if they are discovered by the 36th Group Army after dawn, the little devils have the confidence to rush to Datong and destroy a large number of factories of the 36th Group Army.

The 5th Brigade of the Little Devil Cavalry has two cavalry wings and one cavalry artillery wing and baggage brigade, each cavalry wing has three cavalry brigades, and each cavalry wing has more than 2,000 people.

There are more than 1,000 cavalry artillery wings, equipped with 24 Type 92 infantry guns, nearly 1,000 baggage troops, and more than 8,000 little devils in the entire 5th Cavalry Brigade.

Except for a cavalry brigade in the vanguard, which was nearly 10 kilometers ahead, most of its troops were basically in the area of Dongmen Ridge and its surroundings for several kilometers, and now, most of the little devils were hurrying to rest.

On the flank of the 5th Brigade of the Little Devil Cavalry, less than a dozen kilometers away, the little devil's tank wing is also resting, the Little Devil Tank Wing is equipped with dozens of tanks and dozens of armored vehicles, in addition, because it is a long-distance sneak attack, it is also followed by more than a dozen fuel supply vehicles.

A few hours later, the sky was bright, and many little devils had already woken up from a sleep, and they seemed to be in good spirits, and more little devils were full of excitement.

The commander of the Little Devil Brigade also woke up early, and the commander of the Little Devil Brigade, Shigeichi Fujita, couldn't sleep at all, and he couldn't even think that he could reach this position smoothly.

Fujita Shigeichi had already looked at the map several times, repeatedly confirmed this location, this place was not far from Datong, his own troops had not yet been discovered by the 36th Group Army, Fujita Shigeichi thought that success was in sight.

If he can successfully destroy a large number of factories of the 36th Army this time, he will definitely be a great hero of the empire, as long as he can return to the northeast safely, then he will be promoted to lieutenant general immediately, no! It could be a general.

Thinking of this, Fujita Shigeichi's heart became slightly excited.

"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, the warriors are ready, do we rush to Datong immediately?"

The chief of staff of the little devil walked over quickly, although his attitude was very respectful, but his tone was obviously joyful.

"Don't worry, bring the map, we have to determine the best route forward, we have to try to bypass some densely populated areas, the later we are discovered by the 36th Army, the more beneficial it will be for us."

Shigeichi Fujita carefully put on snow-white gloves and said slowly.
