"Report, Xinghe County Security Corps urgently called!" Just when a group of bigwigs were arguing, the newspaper operator got up and said loudly, extremely emotional.

A group of bigwigs in the headquarters were all startled by the huge and loud voice of the newspaper operator, and Dong Qiwu, the commander of the 218 Brigade next to him, shouted: "What's the matter, didn't you see the military seat and the deputy seat discussing things?" ”

"Report to the military seat, the Xinghe County Security Corps sent an urgent telegram from Xinpingbao, it is good news!" The operator said.

"Good news, bring it quickly, this kid doesn't sleep in the middle of the night, what kind of good news." Fu Zuoyi said suspiciously.

Fu Zuoyi took the telegram handed over by the telegraph operator and read it carefully, and as soon as he saw the beginning, Commander Fu laughed heartily, which caused a group of senior generals in the headquarters to look sideways.

"Junzao, what good things can you enjoy alone, brothers are waiting for you here, read and listen?" As Fu Zuoyi's hardcore confidant, Dong Qiwu and Fu Zuoyi have always spoken very casually.

"Read it out?" Fu Zuoyi asked with a smile.

"Of course, the military seat is smiling like a flower, it must be a good thing, you can read it out loud, brothers can also take advantage of the light, have fun." Dong Qiwudao.

"Okay, then I'll be a return attendant, listen, this is a telegram sent by Chen Feng, head of the Xinghe County Security Corps, the message is as follows: Chen Feng of the Xinghe County Security Regiment of Suiyuan Province sent a telegram to Chief Yan of the Second Theater of Operations and Commander Fu of the Seventh Group Army of the National Revolutionary Army. In addition, he killed the commander of the 1st Independent Mixed Brigade of the Chahar Dispatch Corps of the Japanese Army, Major General Sakai Hoji and the following generals, and our troops did not suffer any casualties. At present, our unit has withdrawn to the front line of Xinpingbao and temporarily separated from the pursuit of the Japanese army. ”

"It's really fake, a guard company dared to sneak attack the Japanese army's logistics base, blew up countless supplies and killed the Japanese major general, and there were no casualties of its own, is it impossible?"

"How is this possible, small Japan is not muddy, let alone a company, even a division may not be able to achieve such results in the encirclement of tens of thousands of Japanese troops."

The first reaction of these senior officers in the headquarters was that it was impossible, and the results of such a battle were too unbelievable.

Fu Zuoyi frowned and looked at these generals in the headquarters, and then said: "You can't do it, not necessarily others, let me tell you, yesterday morning, this security regiment used an infantry battalion to completely annihilate two artillery brigades and an infantry squadron of the Japanese army, destroying 24 field guns, and the Japanese army from the captain of the Shaozuo brigade to the ordinary soldiers did not miss the net." It's not impossible to use a company to sneak attack the Japanese arsenal, have you forgotten the reason why we are here for a meeting so late, if the security regiment really sent a small force to attack the Japanese arsenal tonight, then the violent explosions on the eighth floor were caused by them, but I don't know if the Sakai Hoji that Chen Feng said was killed is true. ”

"So yesterday's events have been confirmed?" Ye Qijie asked in surprise.

"Well, although the military command is a bastard, it does have a set in terms of espionage, and it was confirmed at noon yesterday that the Japanese side not only lost 24 75mm caliber guns of two artillery groups, but also killed two captains of the Shaozuo Group. Now newspapers in Shanghai, Nanjing, Wuhan, Chongqing, and other places have reported on this incident, and I, the commander of the Seventh Group Army, have also become popular. Fu Zuoyi said.

"Amazing, I really don't know that the little security regiment commander has a mixed head, doesn't he know that Lu Dao is afraid, a battalion will sneak attack the Japanese artillery position, and a company will go to sneak attack the Japanese arsenal, a newborn calf!" Dong Qiwu said with emotion.

"This kid really didn't disappoint me, our weapons and equipment before the war were not given in vain, and the military seat has a unique vision and is clever! Hahaha!! Ye Qijie also said with a smile.

"Before, I was just trying to win over the Siziwang tribe behind Chen Feng, but I didn't expect this kid to be a manufacturable material, killing the Japanese major general, with this credit Chen Feng, the major general and brigade commander of the A brigade, can't run, hehehe!" Fu Zuoyi said with a smile.

"Junza, it seems that we don't need to worry about the situation of the 61st Army for the time being, there is no artillery and no ammunition, the little devil has no way to take the 61st Army in a short time, and we can concentrate on dealing with the hungry wolf of Seishiro Itagaki ". Ye Qijie said.

"Yes, Dashuai has now been forced into a corner by Itagaki Seishiro, the whole line of Jinbei and Jinzhong is in an emergency, the strength of the Seventh and Eighth Group Army is indeed a little weak, with the hand of the security regiment, at least half a month we don't need to worry about the little devil entering Shanxi, hurry up and send a report to the marshal, just forward it according to the original text sent by the security regiment, and not a word can be modified. We've already taken advantage of that kid once, and we'll forget it this time. Fu Zuoyi said.

After receiving the telegram from the Seventh Group Army, Yan Xishan did not care about the time in the middle of the night, and immediately sent a telegram to the Military Commission in Nanjing, of course, this telegram was revised by those staff officers of the Second War Zone Commander's Headquarters, and the commander-in-chief of this campaign was of course Yan Xishan and Yan Dashuai, and Chen Feng was just an executor.

Of course, in order to compensate Chen Feng, the Second War Zone Commander's Department immediately issued an order: "The Security Regiment was immediately upgraded to the Independent Seventh Brigade of the Jinsui Army, and it is an independent Type A Brigade, and the shortage of ammunition and food and salary will be solved immediately by the Second War Zone Commander's Department. In addition, 50,000 yuan was awarded to the Seventh Brigade of the Independent Brigade, and Chen Feng and a cadre of officers were given other rewards. ”

Yesterday, the security regiment won the battle, and Yan Laoxi rewarded Chen Feng with a major general and brigade commander and 20,000 oceans, and the security regiment was also upgraded from a local army to a regular army in one fell swoop, and it was also expanded into a brigade-level military unit.

However, in view of the fact that Chen Feng was too young, and the record in the archives was only 23 years old, according to the habits of the Jinsui area, this is all a fictitious age, in fact, Chen Feng's actual age was one or two years younger, so the establishment of the Seventh Brigade at that time was a type B brigade, that is, a small brigade with two regiments in one brigade and two battalions in each regiment, and the total number of the whole brigade was only between 2,800 and 3,500 people.

In this way, after the security regiment won the battle, the troops were upgraded and expanded, and the officers were promoted and made a fortune.

But now that the security regiment has won another battle and killed the Japanese army major general, this credit is a bit big. However, it's only been a day, and the big reward is obviously not suitable, but the lieutenant general is the division commander at the top, so Chief Yan has to work the establishment of the troops, the B brigade has become a A brigade, although there is no difference in the establishment of the troops of less than 3,000 people, but the number of soldiers has increased to more than 5,000 people, plus a reward of 50,000 oceans, I think it should be able to meet the officers and soldiers of the security regiment, and it can also stop the world.

Chen Feng wouldn't care about these things, whether it was the B Brigade or the A Brigade, anyway, Chen Feng would expand as many troops as he could, and the establishment would not affect him at all. As far as the current security regiment is concerned, the three infantry regiments and two cavalry regiments are only a lot more than the number of the 61st Army of the Jin Sui Army.

His biggest concern now is if and when Honda United will come. The Third Security Regiment is still fifteen kilometers away, and it will take at least two hours according to the marching speed of the troops.

"Report to the commander, the Japanese Honda Wing opened the way with the troops of the puppet cavalry, and the forward passed the Xuanjia Tower, which is less than twenty kilometers away from Xinping Fort."

"Okay, order the first battalion to immediately enter the fortifications to meet the enemy, and at the same time send a report to Commander Li, ordering the second battalion, the third battalion and the troops directly under the headquarters to reoccupy the Xuanjia Pagoda as soon as the Japanese army passes the Xuanjia Tower."

"Yes"

After receiving a phone call from Lieutenant General Hideki Tojo, Honda Osa immediately summoned the main officers of the Wing and the Puppet Army Cavalry Division to a meeting, and agreed to launch another attack on the position of the Stone Buddha Temple tomorrow, and it was necessary to capture the Stone Buddha Temple before noon.

But when the troops attacked the next day, it was discovered that the cunning Shina army had quietly retreated the previous night, and yesterday there was nothing left in the position of the hard-headed Stone Buddha Temple, except for the hundreds of new graves newly erected in the back mountain. After asking Hideki Tojo, the soldiers and horses of the command post of Shinichi Honda rushed straight towards Kowa Prefecture.

When the troops arrived at the Xuanjia Tower, they saw the positions abandoned by the Chinese army, which made Honda Jinichi feel a lot more relieved, it seems that the Chinese army did retreat, otherwise the Japanese army would have to pay a lot of price for these positions in the Xuanjia Tower alone.

After passing the Xuanjia Tower, Shinichi Honda led his troops straight to Xinping Fort, the northern gateway of Tianzhen.

Fearing that his troops would be ambushed by the Chinese army, Shinichi Honda ordered the 3rd Cavalry Division of the puppet army to go to the front, and the top search team was even placed five kilometers away.

At about 9 a.m. on September 9, the forward cavalry returned that the Chinese army had a heavy garrison at Xinpingbao and had also built strong fortifications, and the steppe wolf battle flag was once again flying in front of the position.
