Regarding the Japanese army's "wind plan", Li Yan has always disagreed with the female boss's inference that it is related to chemical weapons. He didn't have a more convincing reasoning, but he had a feeling that neither the strange military columns nor the deep ravines looked like they had anything to do with chemical weapons.

After the head of the Taiyuan secret service, Masao Kojima, was transferred to Wencheng, the second intelligence group judged that the abnormal movement of this small island should be closely related to the "wind plan," and Li Yan even overturned the chemical weapons of the team leader, saying: It is clear that if the Japanese army uses poison gas bombs and other chemical weapons that violate the Geneva Conventions in combat, it can only act secretly within the army, and will absolutely not allow the chief of the special service in charge of local public security affairs to participate in it.

However, Wang Suihua experienced a period of vacillation, but picked up chemical weapons again, saying that after discovering that the Japanese army was entering and leaving Songjiagou in Xiaoyushu Mountain, and Xuzhou was facing a major battle, she became more and more firm in this belief, and reported it to Shanxi Station and even the northwest region.

Li Yan didn't dare to openly refute the beautiful female boss at this time, one was worried about annoying the other party, and the other was that he really couldn't think of what the Japanese were doing in this bird plan. At this moment, driving a Chevrolet sedan on the wasteland at the northern foot of Little Elm Mountain, Li Yan discussed more with Wang Suihua in the passenger seat how to bypass the mountain pass guarded by the Japanese army and touch into this mountain.

"I'll see if I can see the commander of the 391st Regiment today, if they really take down the county seat of Fengdian, they simply ask him to strike while the iron is hot and lead the army to attack Little Elm Mountain, you and I will follow it and find out."

"Well, I'm just asking casually," Li Yan quickly glanced at the female boss's full chest: "You are already very familiar with the 391 regiment now, but that day they mistakenly arrested you as a traitor and entered the mountain, are they really not unkind to you?" ”

In the past, this ill-intentioned question must have annoyed Wang Suihua, she knew that Li Yan had always been ambiguous about her, and that she was captured by a group of spies of the Central Army late at night, in the heart of the male lieutenant of the military commander, it must have been very unbearable. However, after several setbacks and failures, Wang Suihua has become much more restrained, and her temper does not seem to be as hot as before.

"What the hell do you want to know? Are they unkind to me in the details? The female major of the military commander looked quiet, and asked in a calm tone.

"Are there any details?!" Li Yan's eyes widened, and instead of looking at the front of the car, he turned his head to look at the beautiful face of his female boss.

Wang Suihua raised her left hand, spread her five fingers, and pushed the driver's head right: "Don't be serious." I introduced you to the people of the 391st Regiment today, and I will have to work hard for you to run this contact point in the future. ”

Of course, Li Yan can feel the recent change in the team leader's attitude towards him, the behavior of raising his hand to beat him is gone, and the fierce rebuke is rarely used. This made Li Yan very comfortable - he really liked his female boss.

"That broken compound, I don't have to live back, right?" Li Yan was referring to the courtyard on the northern outskirts of Wencheng, near the Songjiagou Railway Branch.

"I'm afraid you'll have to go back and hold on for a few more days. As you can see today, the Japanese are still blocking the pass of Little Elm Mountain, and maybe there will be military trains coming in and out of there. You'll have to keep an eye on that branch line. Who made our second group short of manpower, and you are my most reliable person. The female major of the military commander said these words in a faint voice, and her expression became gloomy.

Li Yan's body suddenly warmed up, and he knew the predicament that the entire second intelligence team and the team leader were facing: "Don't worry, team leader, just say this to you, I will die in that broken yard, for you, I will not hesitate." ”

Wang Suihua stared blankly at the front of the car window, and after a long time, she said: "It's not for me, it's for the War of Resistance, for the party-state." With that, she sighed slightly, almost imperceptibly.

It is closer to the Shanxi Station and the Northwest District's request for the second intelligence group to crack the "Wind Plan".

Qin Zhongxiao ordered the four gates of Fengdian to be closed and searched for the remnants of the Japanese puppet army in the city, and at the same time arranged dozens of soldiers to ride horses and gallop through the streets and alleys of the city to tell the residents to assist in the search. The people of Fengdian, who were killed by the Japanese, went out of their homes one after another, and welcomed the return of the Central Army with joy and sorrow - the last time Qin Zhongxiao led his troops to counterattack the North City Gate, it could only be regarded as a flash in the pan for the people, and now it is the real recovery.

However, in the face of the jubilant Mancheng fathers, the colonel of the Central Army was still very depressed, and he still could not know what caused the Japanese puppet army guarding the county town to withdraw in a big way; The 391st Regiment's recapture of Fengdian this time was obviously based on the emptiness of the enemy's troops, and Qin Zhongxiao was not sure whether the Japanese would make a comeback in the future. If the enemy sends heavy troops to crush the city, with his current strength, I am afraid that he will still end up with a saddle and left.

Some prisoners were captured, and the chief of staff, Zhang Hong, interrogated them, but did not get any useful information from the mouths of these junior soldiers. However, the chief of staff brought a piece of news that made Qin Zhongxiao feel shocked - it was indeed the Eighth Route Army that caught the Japanese army outside the south gate and succeeded, and it was the famous Lin Division. Zhang Hong recounted the process of the two sides meeting outside the city, and the other party admitted that he was stationed at the western foot of Guanmen Mountain, more than 30 miles south of the county seat, with men and horses as a main battalion.

"This group of eight roads is quite strange, they are well-armed, and the infantry is all covered by three or eight big covers at a glance," the chief of staff told the major of the Central Army with great interest: "And there are cannons, and the cannons are surprisingly accurate." If it weren't for the clothes of the Eighth Road, I would have really regarded them as our Central Army. ”

"Why don't you invite their chief into the city?" Qin Zhongxiao said to Zhang Hong reproachfully: "Since this Eight Roads is as good at fighting as you said, we should establish contact with it, and we can conspire with it in the future." ”

The chief of staff shook his head: "In the final analysis, the Eighth Route is also a miscellaneous army, and it is not treated by Chairman Jiang, judging from the situation during the Xinkou Meeting, the Second War Zone also treated them as if they were leaving, and I suggest that the regimental seat should not provoke them." ”

Qin Zhongxiao was choked by the chief of staff's words, thought about it, and had to give up.

Next, they counted the losses and captures of the battle.

In this battle, the 391st Regiment invested two main battalions and one special service company, and the casualties were about 100 people, of which more than 50 were killed. More than 80 corpses of Japanese puppet soldiers were seized, and less than 20 people were captured.

The seizure of heavy weapons was considerable, with a Type 92 70-mm infantry gun, a Type 94 90-mm mortar, and two Type 92 heavy machine guns seized at the two city gates and the county government, respectively, and five grenadier canisters were also seized during the exchange of fire in the city.

The 391st Regiment retreated from the battlefield of the Taiyuan Defense Battle, and lost all its artillery, and in the initial equipment of the main force of the Central Army's A Division, the artillery configuration was quite powerful, and the regimental headquarters directly governed two artillery companies: the mortar company and the battle defense artillery company, the former was equipped with six 82-mm mortars made in the Republic of China, and the latter was equipped with six German-made PAK 37-mm combat vehicle defensive guns. Since the artillery was lost, Qin Zhongxiao had to supplement the officers and soldiers of the artillery company into the infantry company. Also reduced to infantry were the officers and men of the heavy machine gun company, whose six imitation Makqin - the 24 heavy machine guns made in the Republic of China - were also completely lost when they were withdrawn from Fengdian.

Therefore, in addition to the political significance, the military significance of this battle seems to be greater: the 391st Regiment has since regained its possession of artillery and heavy machine guns. Of course, the guns were all Japanese, including grenadiers; The heavy machine gun was also changed from Makqin to Type 92; But this was enough to make the veterans of the artillery and heavy machine gun companies excited.

The chief of staff and Qin Zhongxiao discussed that the establishment of a machine gun company could be resumed first, and infantry guns, mortars, and heavy machine guns could be put together, and then the artillery company and heavy machine gun company could be restored after new seizures were made and the Military Commission and the Second War Zone were allocated in the future.

Qin Zhongxiao said: Now that our radio station can be used, it is best to find a way to contact the headquarters of General Wei Lihuang in the Second War Zone, so that we can not only communicate with the news, but also ask for supplementary food and military equipment. The chief of staff thought about it and felt that he could still only rely on the people of the Shanxi Station of the Military Command to get through this road. Unexpectedly, before he could finish speaking, his subordinates immediately transferred the message received by the radio station of the regimental headquarters in Da Yushu Mountain, and the military commander Major Wang called to inquire about the results of the 391st Regiment's attack on Fengdian, and said that he had already left for the vicinity of Fengdian, and asked Qin Zhongxiao to send his troops to the junction of the road from Junling to Fengdian to answer.

"It's really Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here!" Zhang Hong couldn't help grinning: "And it's a female Cao Cao." ”

The remnants of the Japanese puppet army who escaped from the north gate of Fengdian were along the road from Fengdian to Junling, Qin Zhongxiao was worried that the female major of the military commander would encounter this rout unexpectedly, so he hurriedly ordered Zhao Mutou to lead people to the roadside Yedian. The commander of the special service company personally drove the newly captured Japanese three-wheeled motorcycle and set off first.

Wang Suihua and Li Yan, fortunately, did not encounter the rout led by Aso Nakasa, the deputy captain of the Japanese Otsuka Wing, but the roadside shop was looted by this Japanese puppet army. In order to prevent her ears and eyes, Wang Suihua still parked the car at the northern foot of Little Elm Mountain, and after connecting her head, the people of the special service company guarded the car; She and Li Yan were picked up by Zhao Mutou on a motorcycle in the twilight and into Fengdian County.

Qin Zhongxiao did not follow the advice of the special agent company commander and set up the temporary headquarters in the former regimental headquarters: the house of the shopkeeper Wang. The tragic experience of the shopkeeper Wang's family made the colonel of the Central Army feel sad, and he really didn't have the courage and face to walk into the two-deep courtyard again. As a result, the temporary headquarters was set up in the prefectural government, which was recaptured from the Japanese.

The female major of the military commander did not expect that the 391st Regiment would move so quickly to recover Fengdian, and of course she couldn't guess Qin Zhongxiao's complicated mood at the moment. At the county government, when she congratulated the other party, the response was very cold.

"Can you ask Qin Tuanzuo to make persistent efforts and immediately attack Little Elm Mountain?"

Since the words are not speculative, Wang Suihua simply got straight to the point. Qin Zhongxiao couldn't help but be stunned, he originally guessed that the Japanese army should have hidden secrets in Fengdian, so that it attracted the attention of the military commander-just learned that Fengdian was recovered, this female spy hurried over, I am afraid this is also the reason-unexpectedly, her attention was not the county seat, but the mountain outside the county seat.

What's in the mountains?!
