Readers, because of the writing error, it has caused a lot of inconvenience to everyone, please forgive you... In the last two chapters, the latest commander of the North China garrison mentioned should be General Tada... And General Bin Sanyuan, in the last Battle of Taiyuan, Qi Que has been killed... I hope you don't mind, from this chapter onwards, it's General Tada...

The six tongues of fire shot by six light and heavy machine guns were like six sickles that specialized in harvesting the lives of little devils, and in just a split second, they smashed the nearly 100-meter marching army in front of them... One by one, the soldiers who were shot lay on the ground, constantly twisting their injured bodies, and at the same time, let out bursts of painful wails. As for the surviving little devils, they quickly lay on the ground, enduring the constant drowsiness, ready to fight back... However, at this moment, the soldiers who had already finished firing a magazine, and before the little devil could react from the shock, they quickly withdrew from their positions with a strong light and heavy machine gun and disappeared into the vast mountains. Only a bullet casing was left behind, telling these little devils that this was once the light and heavy machine gun position of the Eighth Route Army..."Your Excellency Zuo, in the sneak attack just now, the Eighth Route Army used six light and heavy machine guns to suddenly launch a surprise attack on our marching column. Therefore, the casualties of the troops were very large, and a total of 54 soldiers were killed on the spot. In addition, there were 39 soldiers who received gunshot wounds of varying degrees, and 22 of them were unable to continue the march..."After getting the casualties of the troops, the staff officer was shocked at the same time, and did not dare to have any slackness, and hurriedly caught up with the commander of Nakasa in front, and cautiously reported....

"Baga, the cunning Eighth Route Army, I really didn't expect that they would even use light and heavy machine guns. Eight Tooth Road... Ordered the troops to slow down their march and send a small search force to each of the two flanks, to ensure the safety of our two flanks..."In the face of huge casualties, the commander of the army had to slow down the march of his troops... Of course, the slowdown in the speed of the army's march made a few pro-heavy machine gunners no longer have a chance to exert their power. However, it is a good thing for the fighters who are shooting cold guns around ... More than a dozen carefully selected sharpshooters attacked again, and around the main force of the army, they continued to shoot cold guns, shooting unlucky little devils one by one... In the end, more than 800 little devils, on the road, after another day and a night, the army had less than half of the strength left. And the remaining more than 400 little devils, in addition to the injuries of nearly 100 people, the remaining soldiers are almost exhausted and have no combat effectiveness at all... And the little devil who almost lost his combat effectiveness in front of him and was slaughtered by others. The main force of the Eighth Route Army gathered around no longer had any hesitation, and immediately gathered the strength of a main force regiment to surround the remaining remnants of the little devil... After almost an hour of fierce fighting, a reinforced brigade of devil soldiers, under the blow of the people's war, finally wiped out the whole army... The little devil troops, who have the same fate as this reinforced brigade, can be said to be countless... In the entire North China region, there are more than 100 breakout troops in more than 100 counties, and nearly 100,000 puppet troops. After falling into a huge people's war, it can also be later. In the end, less than a third of the troops managed to reach the predetermined assembly point. As for the remaining little devils, they were all wiped out by all kinds of armed forces and the main force of the Eighth Route Army. At the same time, a large number of county strongholds that the army voluntarily abandoned were also immediately occupied by the troops of the Eighth Route Army who rushed to various places. The whole land of North China, except for the railway line and the traffic to arrive. The remaining vast area, for a time, became the world of the Eighth Route Army.

Of course, everything that happened on the entire battlefield in North China did not escape the eyes of the newly appointed commander Tada Jun. Although he knew the predicament of the various troops out of the city, he could only watch the troops being dragged from fat to thin by the so-called people's war, and then slowly annihilated by the main force of the Eighth Route Army... And in the entire North China region, all the eyes of the puppet army were attracted to the decisive battle on several railway lines. The assault force led by Commander Liu Hua personally, the 30,000-strong army, has taken advantage of the chaotic situation in North China for several days to quietly occupy Qingyuan County, Rongcheng... At this moment, the 30,000-strong army is secretly lurking in front of Tianjin, near Ezhou, the last county seat, waiting for the special operations brigade to go out to reconnoitre, and bring the latest news to themselves..."Report to the commander, Liu Xiaogang of the special operations brigade was ordered to complete the task and come to report..." In the temporary command headquarters, when the commander Liu Hua was sitting on the ammunition box, his eyes staring at the military map of the Ezhou region in his hand without blinking, frowning and thinking about something. The voice of the special operations team fighting Liu Xiaogang came from the door of the headquarters..."Captain Liu, come in... Guard, immediately pour a bowl of water for Captain Liu..."Seeing Liu Xiaogang, Liu Hua, who was still frowning in the future just now, immediately showed a smile on his face. Because, in the past few days of fighting, the special operations brigade has given itself too many surprises. The successful occupation of the two county towns of Qingyuan and Rongcheng is almost all due to the special operations brigade..."Commander, chief of staff, the situation in Ezhou has been figured out... Because now the whole of North China is in chaos. Therefore, the little devil also deployed a large number of troops at the south gate of Tianjin. If nothing else, if you want to occupy Ezhou, you must carry out a strong attack..."Liu Xiaogang quickly drank a large bowl of boiled water, and said to the two people..."Well, Captain Liu, you can inform me and the chief of staff of the specific situation you have reconnoitred. This is the military map of Ezhou, you are on this map, mark all the deployments of the little devils..."Zhang Hua nodded, put a map that he had been thinking about for a long time, put it on a table in front of Liu Xiaogang, and said.

"Yes, Commander, Chief of Staff..."As he spoke, Liu Xiaogang picked up a pencil and began to report: "Commander, Chief of Staff, according to reconnaissance, in order to ensure the safety of Ezhou, the north gate of Tianjin, the army has abandoned all the large and small strongholds around Ezhou. The total strength of the puppet army now assembled in Ezhou has reached an astonishing 8,000 people, including 5,000 people in the Yue army and about 3,000 people in the imperial army. In addition, in the county, a field artillery brigade was stationed, with a total of 12 75-mm field guns ...."

"It seems that this Ezhou is really a hard nut to crack. With so many troops, it will definitely not work to use the tactics of attacking the first two county towns. However, if we launch a strong attack, Tianjin, which is close to Ezhou, will definitely be prepared in advance. If that time comes, all our plans will be ashamed of the loss..."Commander Liu Hua sighed, shook his head helplessly and said..."Commander, I have an immature idea. Is it possible for us to bypass Ezhou, where the army is stationed in heavy troops, and directly attack Tianjin. Then, with the captured materials, they quickly retreated..."Chief of Staff Li Qing said out loud... Hearing this, Liu Hua's eyes that had just closed opened suddenly, staring at Liu Xiaogang, the captain of the special operations team in front of him, without blinking. Because, at present, among the entire readers, only this Liu Xiaogang is very familiar with the terrain of Pingjin. If he nodded, it would be possible. If he doesn't nod, it means no. Thinking of this, Liu Hua also looked at Liu Xiaogang in front of him with anticipation, hoping to get an answer that he was satisfied with... However, what disappointed the two of them was that as soon as Chief of Staff Li Qing's words were finished, Liu Xiaogang didn't even think about it, so he shook his head helplessly..."Commander, Chief of Staff, you have also seen that on both sides of Ezhou, there are almost endless mountains. And this Ezhou is just stuck in the middle of these mountains. Therefore, if you want to enter Tianjin, there is only this way to go. However, if it is a small force, it can go from the mountains, bypass Ezhou, and go directly to Tianjin..."

"What, you're saying that a small force can pass through the mountains behind us and go directly to the outskirts of Tianjin?" Hearing Liu Xiaogang's answer, Liu Hua, who was still disappointed just now, immediately stared at a pair of big eyes and hurriedly asked.

"Yes, Commander. As long as you don't carry any heavy gear. In a day and a night at most, we can easily cross the mountains behind us and directly reach the outer areas of Tianjin... As for this road, when our special operations brigade first arrived in the Pingjin area, we had walked it several times, and we could definitely guarantee that nothing would go wrong..."Liu Xiaogang said with certainty.

"Okay, okay, great, now we have a way..."After Liu Xiaogang's affirmative answer, Liu Hua couldn't help but slap the table in front of him and said excitedly. made the chief of staff and Liu Xiaogang beside him look inexplicable.

Looking at Liu Hua with an excited face in front of him, Chief of Staff Li Qing hurriedly asked: "Commander, have you already come up with a solution, hurry up and say it, let me listen to it too..."

"Chief of Staff, you see, the distance between Tianjin and Ezhou, if you take the road, it will only take less than a day. And now, the attention of the little devil's entire North China garrison army has been completely attracted by several other main divisions of our Eighth Route Army, especially the little devil's air force, which has all been reinforced to the Shijiazhuang area. The entire Pingjin area was almost empty, except for an infantry brigade stationed in Beiping. So, the enemy we need to face, that is, this reading brigade of the little devils...."Liu Hua pointed to the map and said..."Commander, I know this situation. However, does this have anything to do with our takedown of Tianjin? Li Qing asked rhetorically with a frown.

"Hehe, of course it matters. If we send a force to bypass this Ezhou before alarming the Yue army in the Pingjin area, we will take Tianjin down to him first. After that, a certain number of troops were sent to set up several ambush positions on the road between Tianjin and Beiping. When the time comes, even if the little devils send reinforcements, they will be completely wiped out by our ambush troops. We'll destroy as many little devils as we come... As for the enemy in Ezhou, after the victory in Tianjin, he immediately launched a general attack. I believe that with the combat effectiveness of the directly subordinate column, plus two heavy artillery regiments, they are absolutely capable of destroying all the puppet troops in the city in half a day... At that time, the entire Pingjin area will be the world of our Eighth Route Army, and we will have enough time to mobilize a large number of migrant workers to carry the captured spoils...."Liu Hua said with an affirmative face.

"Commander, I see, you mean, let's give the little devil a two-pronged approach... Now the entire North China region is almost a mess, and the little devils have limited planes, and they have no time to take care of the Pingjin area. Even if the army sends some planes back to help, we have two air defense regiments in our hands... Therefore, the only thing we have to do is to occupy Tianjin with lightning speed before the army reacts... At the same time, the limited strength of the Beiping army was eliminated, and sufficient time was provided for us to carry supplies... In this way, we will have achieved the ultimate goal of the entire campaign..."Chief of Staff Li Qing said with a sudden realization.

"yes, that's what it means... Communicator, order the commander of the guard brigade Bruce Lee, to come to the headquarters immediately..."Liu Hua nodded approvingly, and ordered loudly to the communicator at the gate of the headquarters..."Commander, chief of staff, is there any new task..."Just when the three of them, in the temporary headquarters, continued to improve the battle plan that Liu Hua had just proposed. At the gate of the headquarters, the excited voice of Bruce Lee, the commander of the guard brigade, was heard. Immediately afterwards, I saw Bruce Lee, who was excited, panting and rushing into the headquarters.

"Well, Brigadier Li, there is indeed a very important task that needs to be entrusted to you to complete. I just don't know if your guard brigade can successfully complete this task..."Liu Hua nodded, his eyes looked at Bruce Lee in front of him, and said with a serious face..."Report to the commander, I dare not guarantee anything else, the combat effectiveness of the guard brigade is the best in the entire military region." As long as the task assigned by your commander is assigned, the guard brigade will be able to successfully complete it..."Since the last time the guard brigade relied on bayonets to eliminate several thousand little devils, the combat effectiveness of the guard brigade has been recognized as the most powerful unit in the entire military region. Of course, Bruce Lee, as a brigade commander, is also full of confidence in his troops. Faced with the sharp gaze of the former commander Liu Hua, Bruce Lee did not dodge at all, but replied confidently.

"Good, yes, there is the style of Lao Tzu first... At some point, though, don't say too much. I can tell you the truth that this mission has a bearing on the success or failure of our military region's dispatch of troops. So, before I say the task, I hope you will think about it carefully..."Looking at Bruce Lee with a confident face in front of him, Liu Hua said with a smile.

"Please rest assured, the Guard Brigade will guarantee the completion of the mission..."Facing Commander Liu Hua's questioning, Bruce Lee did not hesitate and replied with an affirmative face.

"Okay, Chief of Staff, you give Brigade Commander Li a description of the specific tasks of their guard brigade and special operations brigade..."Seeing that there was no dark Bruce Lee in front of him, Liu Hua nodded approvingly, and ordered to Li Qing, the chief of staff beside him.

"Yes, Commander..."As he spoke, Li Qing had already placed a map in front of several people: "Brigade Commander Li, the task of your guard brigade is very simple, that is, with the cooperation of the special operations team, from the mountains behind us, directly to the periphery of Tianjin... Then, a certain number of troops were dispatched to cooperate with the special operations brigade to quietly occupy Tianjin... As for the main forces, on the road between Tianjin and Beiping, ambush positions were immediately arranged. Ambush all the troops who set out from Beiping and came to reinforce them. You must ensure that before the main force arrives in Tianjin, you cannot let go of even a little devil and enter the Tianjin area. How, are there any problems? Chief of Staff Li Qing pointed to the map and said.

"Yes, the commander, the chief of staff, the guard brigade guarantees to complete the mission..."After listening to the task of his guard brigade, Bruce Lee's eyes showed a hint of edge. Then, he replied with a resolute face.

"Well, I also believe that the Guard Brigade will live up to the expectations of all of us and successfully complete this mission... How about it, Brigade Commander Li, if there are any difficulties, bring them up now, and if they can be solved, I will definitely help you solve them..."Liu Hua nodded with satisfaction and continued to ask.

"Commander, Chief of Staff, then you're welcome... The troops passed through the mountains, and it must have been impossible for them to carry any heavy weapons... So, I want to order more mortars. There is also the problem of air defense ... After all, the entire Pingjin area is a large plain. If the little devil's plane attacks, we don't have any air defense weapons in our hands, and when the time comes, we can only be beaten passively, and the troops will suffer very much..."Bruce Lee didn't have any politeness, and said directly..."Well, I will meet your request... The chief of staff transferred all the mortars attached to the first, second, and second brigades of the column directly under him, so that Brigade Commander Li could form an artillery cluster composed of nearly 100 mortars. As for the anti-aircraft weapons of the troops ... All the anti-aircraft machine gun companies of the two air defense regiments, nearly a hundred anti-aircraft machine guns, all follow you and obey your command. How, are there any questions? Liu Hua thought for a few seconds and replied affirmatively.

"Commander, that's enough, with the reinforcements of these troops, our guard brigade, we guarantee to complete the task....When the time comes, we will eat as many reinforcements as the little devils come, and ensure that the little devils will not come back..." Hearing the reinforcements of so many heavy weapons, especially the reinforcements of nearly a hundred anti-aircraft machine guns, it can be said that Bruce Lee couldn't help but feel excited.
