"Oh, Okamura Ningji, this old boy was tossed so badly by us, and he can actually be promoted?" Looking at the new information just sent by the military commander, Ye Kong smiled a little and grinned a little. The information sent by the military commander was about Okamura Ningji, Hebei was continuously attacked and harassed by Zhao Zhi's command, the Japanese puppet army in North China suffered heavy losses, and the western movement under the personal command of Okamura Ningji also failed, he should have been punished from the mainland, but for some reason, Okamura Ningji was actually appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Japanese army invading China.

Zhao Zhi didn't know that Okamura Ningji did serve as the commander-in-chief of the Japanese invasion of China in history, but that was supposed to happen in November 44, due to Zhao Zhi's birth, Okamura Ningji served as the commander-in-chief of the invasion of China in May 43, which was one and a half years earlier than the original time in history. Okamura Ninji was a China expert, and the first thing he did after taking over as commander-in-chief of the Japanese army in North China was to prevent the Japanese army from continuing to implement the "three-light policy", believing that the occupation of China was not to kill all the Chinese, but to find a way to enslave them and make them willingly create value for Japan.

It's a pity that the appearance of Zhao Zhi made Okamura Ningji's "three noes policy" an empty talk, Okamura Ningji's Japanese troops and traitors maintained the front foot of the meeting to distribute white noodles and things to the people, and the guerrillas of the Spark Force bought these things with money on the back foot. Not only did the Spark troops get supplies, but the people who received gifts from the Japanese army no longer made the Japanese feel favored, but regarded this as a means of supporting their families, anyway, these things brought by the Japanese were also robbing the Chinese, and it was the guerrillas who really gave money to the benefits.

Okamura Ninji also arranged for the detective team to disguise themselves as guerrillas to sabotage everywhere, so as to discredit the guerrillas, but unfortunately the defense and activity areas of the Spark troops are strictly divided, and almost every village has an inside line that they have persuaded them to, and whether the people who come to sabotage are guerrillas or not, those inside lines are the clearest. In the fight against the guerrillas, Okamura Ninji is like an indomitable fighter, but he has always won less and lost more, otherwise the Spark force would not have expanded so quickly.

"Ignore him, there are troops of the national army on top, let's concentrate on dealing with the Japanese puppet army in Jiaodong, take this place down as soon as possible, and the rest of the matter will be much simpler." Crumpled the telegram in his hand into a paper bullet and threw it into the trash, Zhao Zhi didn't care. Even if Okamura Ningji was promoted to the commander-in-chief of the Japanese invasion of China, it is a pity that Zhao Zhi, who took Weifang and Zhucheng, has sealed the gate of the Jiaodong Peninsula, and if Okamura Ningji wants to regain it, he will have to fill it with human lives, and after the landing force goes ashore and the airport is completed, Jiaodong will be the bridgehead for the counterattack against the Japanese army invading China.

"Keep going, don't stop, these small fish and shrimp are left for the infantry behind, our task is Qingdao." Eisenberg's face in the command vehicle was calm, compared with Joey, who commanded the 1st Armored Division, Eisenberg, the new commander of the 2nd Armored Division, was a little dull, but those who were familiar with him knew that this was just an illusion, once the 2nd Armored Division encountered the enemy, Eisenberg, the commander of the 2nd Armored Division, always liked to personally drive a Sherman tank to fight the enemy in close combat.

Eisenberg's 2nd Armored Division had already broken away from the Texas tank and sneaked into the Jiaodong area, with the timely supply of airdrop fuel, Eisenberg's 2nd Armored Division was like a bamboo all the way, Eric's rapid artillery troops helped the Burmese troops just take Zhucheng, and the 2nd Armored Division that crossed Anqiu had already penetrated Gaomi. The long-distance run and the high-speed driving of the combat vehicles caused at least 20% of the tanks and armored vehicles commanded by Eisenberg to break down in the middle of the road, but fortunately, the 2nd Armored Division still had an infantry covering force with about 1,500 people, otherwise the 120 tanks and armored vehicles commanded by Eisenberg alone would not have reached Gaomi.

In the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, the national army also had tank troops and armored vehicles, but the armored tactics of the national army were rigid and rigid, and compared with the Japanese army's tank troops, the tanks of the national army were not only tactical, but also incomparable. But the Thunder tanks are different, they are all scavenged by Zhao Zhi from Europe, although they are all restored by Jewish technicians, but the armor of the Europeans' tanks is far stronger than the armor of the Japanese tanks. Not to mention one-on-one, it was a one-on-one one-on-three fight, and Eisenberg's Second Armored Division was not afraid of the Japanese army, not to mention that the Japanese army in Jiaodong did not have so many tanks.

"The plane, it's a Japanese fighter." Eisenberg's observation sentries shouted loudly, and after entering Shandong, the 2nd Panzer Division found Japanese fighters along the way, but Eisenberg had a way, and he had already found a way to deal with it. The 2nd Armored Division of the long snake stopped, and many people jumped out of tanks, armored vehicles, and those trucks one after another, and it was very convenient to carry the camouflage net of vehicles produced by the Kunming Arsenal, but after a minute or two, Eisenberg's 2nd Armored Division disappeared from the road.

The large-caliber Browning heavy machine guns equipped with high and low gun mounts have been raised and ready to shoot at any time, and the earthy yellow camouflage net of the Second Panzer Division cannot wipe these tanks, armored vehicles and trucks off the horizon, as long as the Japanese fighters fly at low altitude, they will definitely be able to spot the Second Panzer Division on the road, so at this time, Eisenberg will always order his heavy machine guns to be ready to shoot in the air.

Eisenberg, who was carrying a telescope, looked at his watch a little anxiously, this was the third time he had encountered Japanese fighters today, if Japanese fighters had been appearing so frequently, the speed of the Second Panzer Division would inevitably be affected. After half an hour of intense preparations, the Japanese fighters hovering in the air were gradually transported, and fortunately, the Japanese fighters did not fly at a low altitude, otherwise they would have found the 2nd Panzer Division on the road. "Looks like I'm going to ask my boss for help," Eisenberg sighed and called his radio officer.

Shooting at the air with heavy machine guns equipped with high and low gun mounts is not the best way to deal with Japanese fighters, the best way to solve the problem of Japanese fighters is fighter planes against fighters, and the Thunder also has fighter troops, and the current Thunder fighter units have almost become synonymous with the strong combat power of the Thunder, and more than 300 fighters of various types make the Japanese army not to be underestimated. "Commander, the headquarters called back, asking us to stop our march to Jiaozhou and immediately turn north to Pingdu, after Pingdu changes hands, there will be fighter troops to help in the battle."

Eisenberg's original direction was Jiaozhou, and then Qingdao, but Qingdao not only had Japanese fighter troops stationed, but also Japanese warships were moored in Qingdao Port, and in the face of large-caliber naval gun salvos, it was useless to see how strong Eisenberg's tank armor was, so Zhao Zhicai ordered the Second Panzer Division to go north to Pingdu to avoid the strong firepower of the Japanese army. After reading the map, Eisenberg could only look in the direction of Qingdao and sighed again and again, it is the dream of every soldier to make great achievements on the battlefield, and Eisenberg is naturally not an exception.

After taking Qingdao, Eisenberg could go straight to Weihai along Jimo, Haiyang, and Ru Mountain, and by the time the infantry troops arrived in Weihai, Eisenberg had already killed Yantai. What a big record it is to be able to defeat most of all the targets in Jiaodong in one breath, not to mention that it is within the Thunder, that is, in the entire Chinese theater, he Eisenberg is also the first, but unfortunately, the damned Japanese fighter unit ruined this dream of his own. "Order the troops, go north to Pingdu, and set off immediately." The command to turn to Pingdu almost burst out between Eisenberg's teeth as he gritted his teeth.

Tactical adjustments often occur in actual operations, especially the battle plans formulated by Zhao Zhi are often subject to tactical adjustments, and Eisenberg and other Thunder officers have long been accustomed to it. And it turns out that it is precisely because of Zhao Zhi's tactical adjustment that Thunder will avoid a lot of unnecessary casualties, if Eisenberg still attacks Qingdao according to the original battle plan, then he will definitely encounter the bombardment of Japanese fighter units and naval guns, even if he can take Qingdao, I am afraid that the second armored division will be disabled by the Japanese army.

Eisenberg was ordered to go north to Pingdu, the Burmese troops in Zhucheng had also moved south to Jiaonan, and the troops in Weifang had transferred troops to Changyi in the north, Zhao Zhi's arrangement was very simple, regardless of whether Okamura Ningji had to send troops to attack, he would seal the gate of the Jiaodong Peninsula in the shortest possible time, so that the Japanese puppet army in Jiaodong and the Japanese puppet army in North and Central China would lose land contact. The Nationalist armies in Shandong, Henan, and Shanxi, under Chiang Kai-shek's instructions, assumed a posture of attacking Hebei, and it was believed that when Okamura Ningji dealt with Zhao Zhi, he would inevitably have to consider the threat of the Nationalist army.

The current situation has gradually become clear, and the feeling of dire situation when Zhao Zhi was in Shanxi is gone forever, "Inform Yu Dazhi that the 200,000 Burmese mercenaries who have rushed to Sichuan will be diverted from Shaanxi to Henan. Zhao Zhi read the map on the table almost rotten, and finally ordered the 200,000 Burmese reserve army led by Yu Dazhi to enter Henan in advance. With a customized prosthetic leg from the United States, Yu Dazhi is now able to stand up and walk freely, and Yu Dazhi, who can't be idle, has thrown the Burmese defense to Mo Lun and Rowling since he was able to walk and jump, and he secretly took hundreds of mercenaries into the Burmese mercenaries, and by the time Zhao Zhi knew about it, Yu Dazhi had already entered Sichuan with the Burmese reserve army.

Whether or not to hold the Jiaodong Peninsula, Henan is a key, the national army's troops in Henan are scattered and scattered, Zhao Zhi asked Yu Dazhi to bring 200,000 Burmese reserve troops into Henan, that is, to build a control area in Henan. Opening up the land connection between Shandong, Henan and Shaanxi, Zhao Zhi controlled the entire Central China region, and although Okamura Ningji, whose headquarters was located in Beiping, was the commander-in-chief of the Japanese army invading China, he was afraid that if he wanted to go to South China, he would only have to take a plane, and he also prayed for God's blessing not to be shot down by thunder on his landline.
