"General, the second infantry brigade is in an emergency!" As soon as a communications staff officer rushed in with a telegram, he shouted at Matsumoto in a hurry.

"Aren't they responsible for the security of all the villages and towns in Linfen? Now that the remnants of the new regiment are being blocked and beaten by us in the mountains, what can be the urgency? Major General Matsumoto asked rhetorically, puzzled, but still took the telegram from the communications staff officer.

"Tiantang Town has been attacked, all the defenders have been annihilated, how is it possible, mark Tiantang Town immediately!" Halfway through the telegram, Major General Matsumoto had a shocked expression on his face.

After reading the telegram, the specific location of Tiantang Town on the sand table was also marked by the combat staff officer on standby.

At this time, Matsumoto's brows had already wrinkled into a big Sichuan character, and his face was very complicated, with shock, doubt, worry, and solemnity

After staring at Tiantang Town on the sand table for a full minute, Matsumoto first smashed his fist on the sand table in front of him, and then frowned and asked his subordinates in front of him: "Kill one of our strongholds and four maintenance associations in one night, and more than sixty people died in the Guanghuang Army, who can tell me who did this~"

"In addition to the remnants of the new regiment in Linfen, are there anti-Japanese forces that we don't know about!"

"Eight Grid Tooth Road, who can give me an inference!"

At this time, another communications staff officer hurriedly ran over.

"General, it's still a telegram from the Second Infantry Brigade, they have found out the identity of the enemy attacking the stronghold of Tiantang Town!

"Who did it!" Matsumoto, who was anxious to know the answer, did not answer the telegram, but stared at the communications staff officer and asked rhetorically.

"A new mass of remnants, they are very sure of this judgment. What is the specific situation, it is written at half a point! ”

"Impossible!" Matsumoto's first reaction was disbelief.

Everyone in the brigade, including himself, knew that the remnants of the new regiment were in the mountains and were being surrounded by thousands of puppet troops.

Now others have told themselves that the remnants of the new mass are not in the mountains.

Matsumoto's first reaction to such an outcome was disbelief.

Then hurry up and get the telegram and start browsing.

The complicated expression on his face was finally frozen in shock and solemnity, and then he shouted in a lost voice: "Eight Ge Yalu, we must have been fooled!" ”

"A few days ago, the remnants of the new regiment broke through the blockade and did not enter the mountains, and we were all deceived by them. When the main force of the brigade and regiment is all in the mountains, they can wantonly attack us in Linfen, where there are insufficient troops. ”

The chief of staff, who hurried back to the war room, immediately asked, "General, what should we do next?" Also, if the Eighth Route Army that attacked us inside the mountain and the Eighth Route Army that attacked us outside the mountain are both new regiments, it means that the new regiment is much stronger than more than half a month ago! ”

Major General Matsumoto frowned and did not speak.

After hesitating for almost a minute, he analyzed: "The troops entering the mountain must not retreat!" ”

"Since the new regiment has troops operating outside the mountain, there are certainly not many troops left in the mountain, and there are quite a few light and serious wounded. Since the troops have been in the mountains for two days, find them and kill them! ”

"As for the new regiment attacking us from outside the mountain? It is true that the second brigade does not have any superfluous mobile units to surround and intercept them. And no matter where the troops are deployed, there will be defensive holes, giving them a chance to take advantage of them! ”

"But they forgot, we still have an infantry brigade in the county seat!"

The chief of staff immediately reminded: "But, general, this brigade still protects Linfen City and is responsible for the safety of Linfen!" ”

Major General Matsumoto shook his head and asked, "Even if the remnants of the new regiment become stronger, they only have the ability to attack our small and medium-sized strongholds outside the city, and they don't even dare to attack large strongholds, let alone the county seat!" ”

"It is true that there is only one brigade of infantry in the county, but don't forget, there are also engineers, baggage soldiers, artillery, cavalry, and guard troops in the county seat! All of them combined, the total strength is far more than a brigade. It is not good to let them fight in the field, but the defense is more than wrong! ”

"Immediately carry out the order, draw two squadrons from the Fifth Brigade, and then two battalions from the Imperial Allied Army, and form two mobile units, with their squadron leaders as commanders, carrying radio stations, and leaving the city immediately. Find the new wreckage active outside the mountain and kill them! ”

"The intelligence department, the garrisons of the various strongholds, the maintenance committee, and the air support, all move and find them!"

"Outside the mountains are basically plains and hills, as long as you find them, the two squadrons will definitely be able to kill them easily!"

Because of the lack of troops, the intelligence network of the new regiment in Linfen was devastated, and Wang Ping, who was hiding in the ravine, did not know that his opponent in Linfen had two more reinforced squadrons and two battalions of puppet troops.

More than 50 prisoners in the stronghold of Tiantang Town were mobilized and killed in front of them three officers with lives in their hands. I don't know if it was voluntary or afraid that the Eighth Route Army would kill people and make trouble for them, but in the end, 35 people rushed to join the Eighth Route Army.

Wang Ping did not refuse, and directly incorporated them into the recruit company.

Wang Daoshan, the commander of the newly appointed recruit company, looked at the dozens of captive soldiers in front of him who were confused and listless, his head exploded directly, and he directly found Wang Ping and reported helplessly: "Regiment commander, these people are simply hopeless!" ”

"I told them all the various policies of our Eighth Route Army twice, but they are still indifferent, and just like listening to the book of heaven, few people listen to it at all!"

"Just like them, they are not qualified to be a soldier of the Eighth Route Army at all. Forcibly replenishing the troops, most likely, it will also be counterproductive! ”

Wang Daoshan listened to Wang Daoshan's mobilization just now, spoke very thoroughly, and was very familiar with the various policies of the Eighth Route Army.

However, he ignored a fundamental problem, these captives were all peasants who could not read a single word, and they would certainly not understand what big truths and empty words they were talking to at once.

In this case, Wang Ping immediately thought of the grievances created by Liu Deng's army in the later Liberation War, on the battlefield, as long as the enemy has complained about it, he can immediately replenish his troops, and then like a different person, he takes up arms to fight against his former allies, in terms of performance on the battlefield, he can't see at all that he is a liberation soldier who has just been captured!

As soon as his eyes lit up, he immediately made a decision: "Don't worry, for them, we can change the way!" ”

"I remember that a lot of canned beef from the devils were seized at night, and these recruits were also busy all night and hungry, so one person gave them one!" Wang Ping followed and ordered.

Wang Daoshan didn't want to give these precious cans to these captive soldiers to eat, but after seeing Wang Ping's undoubted expression, he still chose to carry out the order.

Of course, he was also very curious about what kind of way the regiment commander in front of him, who had been rumored to be miraculous by others, to deal with these recruits and let them really join the Eighth Route Army!
