Troops of the 110th Division of the Japanese Army were stationed in Langjiazhuang Village, and a brigade of the 110th Infantry Wing was responsible for the garrison along the highway to Datai Township. The 2nd Automobile Brigade and Transport Brigade of the 110th Division's Baggage Brigade, as well as the 1st Field Hospital and the Sick Horse Factory were stationed here.

In terms of rank and position, the highest rank and position is Shimizu Saburo Shaozo of the field hospital, and the top officers of the sick horse factory and the baggage team are also captains, but after all, they are all logistics units attached to the combat troops, and the high rank is useless, and they have to obey the command of Captain Yutaka Nomura of the infantry brigade.

Captain Nomura assigned two infantry squadrons to Taipingzhuang and Taiyu Village to take over the defense of the 163rd and 139th Wings. From the first day he took over the defense, he strictly ordered the construction of pillbox fortifications on the basis of the existing fortifications, and he knew very well what the road line he wanted to defend meant to the encirclement and suppression corps of the entire imperial army on the western front.

If this road and the villages along the route are occupied by the Eighth Road, the tens of thousands of imperial troops encircling and suppressing the Eighth Road in the mountains to the west will have to be choked!

What is not bad is that since Captain Nomura took over, he has repeatedly repelled the attacks of the local armed forces on the Eighth Road, and this vital line of communication has never interrupted the transportation of supplies.

However, he was a little depressed in the past two days, and there was a big Zuo at the military station base, and the 110th Division also specially told him to receive him well, no matter what requests this big Zuo mentioned, he had to meet them as much as possible, not to mention asking about this big Zuo.

Captain Nomura is also a veteran who has been mixed in the infantry for many years, from 31 years of non-commissioned officer candidates to 41 years, a full decade. Almost all of the major military operations of the Japanese army were involved. But military ranks and positions are promoted slowly!

There was no one on it. He has a dull personality and is not good at socializing and pulling relationships, so many of his classmates who graduated at the same time have been promoted to Zhongzuo Shaozuo, and he still hangs the captain's collar badge.

The arrogant and cold Dazuo, looking at his age, is on par with himself, looking at others, he is one step away from the general's golden flower epaulettes, and his sideburns are half white. Still a lieutenant, alas, people are more popular than dead people!

This Dazuo arrived at Langjiazhuang with a convoy of cars driven from the rear base of Tang County, and he also brought more than 30 people and two truckloads of supplies, and the people at the base did not know what was loaded on the car, but it was the cars unloaded by the gang themselves, and they were all carried into the yard that was assigned to them as barracks.

These more than 30 people are also different from ordinary Japanese soldiers, and even their equipment is different. There are neither Type 38 rifles nor 7.9 caliber rifles from the Shenyang Arsenal, all submachine guns!

This submachine gun with a drum. Captain Nomura is the first time I'll see you! Compared with the Type 38 rifle, the short and thick body and the grip in front of the butt look incompatible with the guns equipped by the Japanese army.

How did he know that this was a Thomson-style submachine gun made in the United States, and the little devil entrusted the arms dealer to buy several hundred of them from the Americans to equip the special forces. General Gangcun commanded the entire North China Front Army, commanding hundreds of thousands of combat troops, and if he wanted this kind of gun, he had to apply for it with the army base camp, and a total of 30 guns were needed.

These people, whose equipment is very different from ordinary soldiers, have been deliberately isolated from the people around them since they entered the base in Langjiazhuang Village, their own meals are served, and the camps are also far away from other units in the base.

Captain Nomura kept in mind the notice that the division was coming, and tried not to approach the detachment as much as possible, because they didn't come to trouble themselves anyway.

After dispatching the convoy that was fixed to go to Datai Township in the morning, Captain Nomura sat in the command room of the base, always feeling a little frightened, restless, and the various battle reports coming from the west these days really stimulated him, the master of the garrison base, after all, the field troops and the enemy are the right way for soldiers, and only the fast face of promotion can be glorious!

Fortunately, nothing major has happened in his garrison area, he estimates that the Eighth Route has been driven to a remote mountainous area in the first stage of the sweep, and now that so many troops of the imperial army are still searching in the west, his rear base far away from the war zone should be fine.

It's okay, that's a fluke, luck can't be taken seriously! More than an hour after the convoy was dispatched, a call came from Taipingzhuang, saying that the convoy had arrived safely and was now replenishing, and that it would leave for Taiyu Village immediately.

According to the usual custom, the convoy departed in the morning, resupplied along the way, and arrived at the end point of the day, Datai Township, around the evening.

Seeing that the sun was about to reach overhead, the guards came to ask Captain Nomura what he wanted to eat for lunch, and Nomura thought that according to the itinerary of the convoy, it was time to go to Taiyu Village, so he told the guards that he was guarding the phone and asked the guards to give him some food on the hour.

As soon as the guards walked out of the war room, the phone did not ring, and suddenly a hoarse cry for help rang out on the radio!

It was the field radio of the convoy's accompanying escort team, which sent a call for help! It is said that he was ambushed by a large force of the Eighth Route five kilometers away from Taiyu Village, and that the captain of the imperial army squad of the escort team had been killed in battle, and now the non-commissioned officers and military Cao led the people to resist the attack of the Eighth Route with trucks and carts.

The sound of gunfire and explosions on the radio is clearly audible! Although Captain Nomura said that he saw beads of sweat on his forehead, it was okay and he did not panic, and immediately ordered to call the garrisons of Taiyu Village and Taipingzhuang, and prepared to let the troops from these two villages go in from east to west to reinforce the transport team.

You don't have to get through the phone, it's ringing! Taipingzhuang is besieged on all sides! Many outlying positions have been lost! The reinforcements sent by the defenders of Taiyu Village were ambushed by the Eighth Route before they left the entrance of the village, and they suffered heavy casualties!

At the same time, the left-behind troops of the 163rd Wing in Datai Township also used the radio to contact the Langjiazhuang base, saying that their defensive positions were also being attacked by the Eighth Road, the strongholds on the platform were lost, and the main positions in the village were attacked.

Now Captain Nomura's sweat beads were not hanging on his forehead, but dripping down his cheeks, and the shouting on the radio of the transport team became more and more urgent, and the operator's voice trembled, saying that they had abandoned the convoy and retreated to the small dirt bun on the south side of the road, and if they did not come to the rescue, they would be wiped out!

Nomura grabbed the phone and was about to give a combat order, but the operator answered it several times, but the phone couldn't get through, and he reluctantly said to the captain commander that it is estimated that the eight roads have cut the telephone line again! Nomura scolded this in his heart! This group of dirt roads will do this trick of secretly cutting wires and picking up railroad tracks!

I had no choice but to grab the radio microphone and order the defenders of Taipingzhuang to hold their positions, use machine guns to attack the Eighth Route in the southwest with all their might, break the siege circle of the Eighth Road, and send troops to rescue the transport team.

Nomura stopped shouting, his mind spun a few times, the closest to the transport team was the defenders of Taiyu Village, he wanted the defenders there to go out to save the people of the transport team, if he couldn't turn to Taipingzhuang, lose the village, and get it back tomorrow!

As soon as he said the order to let all the devils in Taiyu Village go out, a low but breathtaking voice sounded coldly behind him: "Your Excellency, with such an arrangement, not only the transport team cannot be saved, but the defenders of Taiyu Village must also be eliminated. ”

Captain Nomura turned around and looked at the man who was talking at the door, and the sunlight poured into the room from behind him, making him look very deep.

This person is none other than the Dazuo who led the team to Langjiazhuang, hehe, Yang Bangzi's old enemy, Qing Shui Dazuo who fought three times!

"Your Excellency, what do you think should be done about this situation?" Nomura was hindered by the other party's military rank, after all, he was several levels higher than him, and he was also specially cared for by the division and regiment headquarters, and he was still holding the order of the North China Front Headquarters, so it was not okay not to give this face.

In addition, Nomura is also a little unconvinced, which means that don't look at you as a big sa, I want to see what you can say in the face of multiple attacks from the eight roads.

Qing Shui is not polite, arrogance is his true color! "Your Excellency, in my judgment, the enemy of Taipingzhuang is just a bluff, as far as I know, the fortifications there are strong, and it is not easy to capture without strong firepower, as for the convoy, it is more cost-effective to lose some soldiers than to lose the entire road."

Coughing lightly, Qing Shui continued: "The Eighth Route is just trying to use the transport convoy as a bait to attract the troops of our garrison stronghold to help, they must also have ambush troops on the road, and when our army enters their ambush circle, you will not be able to keep the transport team, and the garrison will have to be lost." ”

That makes sense! It seems that this pale Osa is not a simple person, Nomura dispelled the initial contempt and respectfully asked Shimizu Daisa to command the military operation.

Qing Shui was not polite at all, sat down in front of the radio station, and ordered the defenders of Taipingzhuang and Taiyu Village to stick to the village and not attack, and the transport team held the existing position and chose the opportunity to break through in the direction of Taipingzhuang.

Zuihou did not say an order on the radio, but to Nomura, ordering him to assemble a squadron of soldiers, and he was to personally lead the rescue convoy.

Qing Shui is deeply stunned by the essence of the Chinese art of war, Yang Bangzi's small routine of encircling the point to send reinforcements, he learned it when he was fighting in the Northeast and the Anti-Japanese Alliance, so the deployment he made is to encircle Wei to save Zhao, and if you want to save the transport team, you can't go to the ambush circle of the Eighth Road, you go to fight the weakness of the Eighth Road must be saved!

What is the weakness of the Eight Roads? The purpose of Qing Shui coming to Langjiazhuang is to capture the mysterious Eighth Route Military Region radio station!

He thought that the one who commanded the destruction of the Imperial Army's lines of communication and the siege of strongholds was the one who commanded the radio! As long as you hit this commander according to the direction of the radio, whether it is an ambush on the highway or an eight-way siege on the stronghold, you have to return reinforcements, and in this way, the attack on the eight-way will naturally be lifted!

This time, the tip of the needle is against Mai Mang, the opponent will meet Liangcai in chess, Yang Bangzi met Shimizu Dazuo, this play is interesting! (To be continued......)
