Today, the second update, ask for recommendations, ask for collections......

On the morning of December 7, the northern suburbs of Taiyuan.

The vanguard of the 136th Division, nearly 3,000 cavalry regiments, was less than 10 kilometers away from Taiyuan City, and since yesterday afternoon, they have galloped all the way, running for nearly 100 kilometers for a long distance, and rested for a few hours at night.

Sun Chuanzhi, the commander of the cavalry, saw that everyone had not eaten breakfast yet, and that it might be a vicious battle to attack Taiyuan, so he ordered everyone to go down and rest in place.

Hearing the order of the regiment commander, the soldiers dismounted one after another, sat on the ground in groups of three or five, took out the dry food they carried with them, and began to eat, while a few soldiers led the war horses to the vicinity to find water sources, give the horses water and forage the horses.

Just as the soldiers were having their fill of food, sitting or half-lying down and chatting together, a soldier hurriedly ran to Sun Chuanzhi and reported that the outer observation post had found a large stronghold of the little devil two kilometers ahead.

After listening to the soldier's report, Sun Chuanzhi took out the map from his body and spread it on the ground, called several cavalry battalion commanders over, and everyone was ready to have a short meeting.

Before coming to Taiyuan, Zhang Yunfei had already told everyone about the deployment of the troops in Taiyuan, and after several months of intelligence spying by the special combat personnel in Taiyuan, the distribution of the little devil's troops was clearly understood.

The little devil stronghold that the cavalry soldiers just said is one of the three large strongholds on the periphery of Taiyuan, there are more than a dozen small strongholds on the periphery of Taiyuan, each stronghold is stationed with dozens of little devils and a small number of puppet soldiers, and there are three large strongholds, all three strongholds are built with watchtowers and strong pillboxes, and at least one squadron of little devils is stationed in them.

Zhang Yunfei's combat mission to the cavalry regiment was to eliminate all the small strongholds on the periphery of Taiyuan before the arrival of the large army, and the three large strongholds, because there were strong pillboxes and the cavalry regiment lacked heavy weapons to attack the fortified positions, these three strongholds would be solved after the arrival of the large army.

The cavalry soldiers rested on the spot for an hour, and the meeting between Sun Chuanzhi and several battalion commanders had already ended, and when they looked at their watches, the time was already ten o'clock in the morning, and in a few hours the large forces would arrive one after another, and the cavalry regiment must wipe out all the little devil strongholds within two or three hours.

Sun Chuanzhi turned over and rode his war horse, and said to several battalion commanders next to him: "Order the troops, all assemble, the first battalion and the regimental headquarters will attack from the front, the second battalion will attack from the left, and the third battalion will attack from the right, quickly sweep away all the strongholds outside Taiyuan City, remember, you must make full use of the mobile surname of the cavalry, and don't fall in love with the big devils when you encounter a large group of little devils, you must get rid of it quickly, two hours later, that is, at eleven o'clock, everyone is still gathering here, do you understand?" ”

"I understand, the regiment commander can rest assured that the task will be completed." Several battalion commanders shouted in unison.

After speaking, Sun Chuanzhi drove the war horse and ran forward quickly, the soldiers followed one after another, and the team of thousands of people was huge, along the flat wilderness, advancing rapidly, not running far, under the leadership of several battalion commanders, the team was divided into three streams of people, and went forward.

Sun Chuanzhi's cavalry regimental headquarters and a battalion of nearly 1,000 cavalry, forward bypassing the large stronghold in front of them, galloped towards the nearby small stronghold, because it was a flat wilderness, the small devil sentry in the large stronghold found the cavalry of nearly 1,000 people led by Chen Hu, but the Eighth Route Cavalry on the opposite side did not mean to attack their stronghold, but bypassed it from afar, and it seemed that they were going to the Xinzhuang stronghold not far away.

The little devil sentry hurriedly got off the watchtower observation post, and hurriedly reported the enemy situation to the supreme commander of their stronghold, a little devil Shaozuo, after listening to the report of the little devil, the little devil Shaozuo hurriedly ordered the troops to be on alert, and personally grabbed the phone in the stronghold and reported to the headquarters in Taiyuan City.

The nearly 1,000 cavalry led by Sun Chuanzhi only took 20 minutes to reach the little devil's stronghold in Xinzhuang, and the little devil in the stronghold saw the galloping cavalry of the Eighth Route Army from afar.

The little devil looked at his own number, there was less than a squad, there were only five or six machine guns, and the Xinzhuang stronghold was not a cement fortification, and the only two-story watchtower was made of red brick and lime.

The little devil captain who is in charge of the defense here is full of despair and horror, it seems that he is going to explain here today, thinking of this, the little devil captain hurriedly grabbed the phone in a panic, and called the headquarters in Taiyuan City to call for support.

After making the call, the little devil captain personally picked up a crooked machine gun, and through the firing hole of the watchtower, he began to shoot at the soldiers of the cavalry regiment a few hundred meters away, and the two or three cavalry soldiers who ran in front were immediately shot and died.

But seeing that the distance was close, the soldiers of the cavalry regiment shot at the shooting hole of the little devil's watchtower, and the little devil captain had just finished firing a dozen bullets, and his head was blown out by the fierce fire of the soldiers of the cavalry regiment, and the red and white flowed all over the ground.

A little devil deputy shooter next to him, seeing that the little devil captain was killed, was afraid of death with a crooked machine gun ready to shoot, but before he could pull the trigger, he was beaten into a sieve by several bullets.

The firepower of the cavalry soldiers of the Eighth Route Army was too fierce, and the few machine guns of the little devils could not exert their due power at all, let alone the rest of the Type 38 rifles.

At a distance of several hundred meters, the soldiers of the cavalry regiment arrived in an instant, approaching the stronghold of the little devil, and the soldiers took out their grenades, pulled the fuse, and threw the smoke-emitting grenades into the little devil's watchtower along the shooting hole.

A few dull explosions came from the watchtower, and all at once, the little devils saw that their Amaterasu had gone.

Such a battle was not only staged here, but the soldiers of the second and third battalions also experienced the same battle, and the cavalry regiment wiped out more than a dozen strongholds of the little devils in less than two hours at a small cost, and hundreds of little devils could only dream back to their roots.

In Taiyuan City, the little devil headquarters.

Since the battle started two days ago, Yoshio Kozuka felt that it was not easy, the attack of the Jin Sui army in the south was smooth, and it has now reached Pingyao, and the first brigade of infantry has been fighting for almost two days, and the first brigade reports that after two days of fighting, the first brigade has suffered nearly one-third of casualties.

The 136th Division of the Eighth Route Army in the north was also not restless, and since yesterday morning, it has carried out a fierce artillery bombardment of the Xinkou position and has broken through the first line of defense of the Xinkou position.

Could it be that the Eighth Route Army and the Jin Sui Army were discussed, did they want to be unfavorable to Taiyuan, a thought flashed in Kozuka Yoshio's mind, if this is the case, it would not be good.

Just as Yoshio Kotsuka was thinking wildly, a little devil communication soldier walked quickly in front of Yoshio Kotsuka and reported loudly: "Your Excellency Commander, just now I received calls for help from many strongholds outside the city, and a large number of cavalry of the Eighth Route Army appeared outside the city. ”

Listening to the report of the signal soldier, a sense of foreboding shrouded in the heart of Yoshio Kozuka, could it be that the Eighth Route Army crossed the Xinkou position and came to Taiyuan, if this is the case, then Taiyuan is in danger, and the current Taiyuan garrison is only more than 10,000 people, just an infantry brigade.

Thinking of this, Yoshio Kotsuka walked around the office uneasily, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that the situation was bad, the more he thought about it, the more irritable he became, and after a long time, he calmed down a little, and said to the little ghost messenger next to him: "Hurry up and send a report to Beiping, Taiyuan was attacked by Zhang Yunfei's department of the Eighth Route Army, and asked reinforcements to speed up the march and quickly support Taiyuan." ”

Before he had time to wait for the little devil communication soldier to stand upright, Yoshio Kozuka waved his hand eagerly to the little devil communication and said, "Hurry up, go immediately." ”

The little devil's communication soldier didn't even have time to salute, and immediately turned around and walked out of Kozuka Yoshio's office, and hurriedly went to send the report.
