…… Li Yunlong took the command tank to attack in the final sequence, this old Li still thought about it, but unfortunately, by the time he commanded the tank to rush to the battlefield, under the all-out offensive of the tank troops, the Japanese army that had been divided and outflanked had already completely collapsed.

Desperate little devils were unable to use anti-tank weapons to conduct anti-tank combat, and some devil officers were even like crazy, even rushing forward with a command knife screaming, as if trying to split the tank's armor with his broken knife.

Lao Li couldn't help but feel a little emotional while watching the fun.

Once upon a time, in the face of the Japanese army's steel torrent, the officers and men of the Eighth Route Army who lacked anti-tank equipment were so helpless?

The development of the military industry, ah, this is too important.

Lao Li was a little depressed after sighing, he didn't kill many devils, and he really didn't kill happily.

This time, so many friendly and neighboring troops came to reinforce them, and they all rushed to fight devils.

Li Yunlong rushed back and forth with his armored troops, and he didn't catch much.

After the forward units of the 14th Division suffered heavy losses in artillery bombardment, and then under the attack of various interspersed troops led by Li Yunlong and Ding Wei, the main force was basically wiped out in a short time.

With the assistance of Ding Wei's Third Guerrilla Force, the Beijin Detachment, the Lao Pi Mobile Brigade, and the Lao Fan Mobile Brigade, the Devil's Bianshan Rear Army was almost completely wiped out at night.

Even the old devil Bian Shan was wounded and captured.

At this point, the 14th Division was left with the division headquarters and the Chinese Army surrounded by the three guerrilla units of the Eighth Route Army, the Northern Advance Detachment, the Lao Pi Mobile Brigade, the Lao Fan Mobile Brigade, the Lao Qin Mobile Force, the Lao Wei Mobile Force, and the main regiments of each army division.

In desperation, the old devil Inoue launched a counter-charge at any cost, hoping to stabilize the defense line and wait for reinforcements.

But all this was gradually disintegrated after the Eighth Route Army's torpedo planes participated in the offensive with modified torpedoes.

These modified torpedoes, the torpedo warhead was replaced with a high-carbon steel alloy, after projection, it fell vertically under the action of gravity, and under the strong penetrating force, it could be smashed into the ground for several meters, and the explosion was triggered only after delaying the fuse.

You can directly destroy the fortifications that the devils have built around the hills and hills in the past two days.

This method was still thought up by Ding Wei, in Ding Wei's words: "Our one is called a ground-penetrating bomb!" ”

In the past few days, the remnants of the Japanese army have been stationed around isolated hills and highlands, and have built fairly solid fortifications with the help of these condescending terrains.

According to the observations of the forward observation posts of the Eighth Route Army, these cunning little devils even planted a large number of explosives on the positions on the outer line of these hills and highlands.

"Eighty percent of the devils want to die with our attacking troops!"

"This is completely desperate, and you want to pull us back!"

"There are a lot of engineers in the devil team, and they don't need to bury it deeply, for example, the crater blown up by the 150 heavy cannon is enough, bury the explosives inside, and our Eighth Route Army will detonate it immediately when it rushes up, and then the reserve team will counterattack with grenadiers, and then directly carry out a counter-charge!"

After Ding Wei's analysis, he immediately said with disdain, ""

"Hehe, this devil thinks it's quite beautiful, but it's a pity that we're tired of playing these tricks for a long time, look at how I broke it!"

With Ding Wei's deployment, the ground-penetrating bomb soon appeared on the stage of the battle.

One shell after another was projected, slamming into the ground, and then completely exploding after a delay, completely shattering the fortifications that had been so strong when the devils attacked from the outside.

How have the little devils ever seen such a new type of ground-penetrating artillery attack?

Some curious people thought that it was a dud bomb dropped by the Eighth Route Army, and they surrounded it in twos and threes, and then died in the explosion.

The last stronghold around isolated hills and highlands soon became a foolish choice for the Japanese to dig their own graves.

Soon after.

In the end, the team led by the old devil Inoue was completely torn apart by the monk's guard regiment, Ding Wei's flying team, Li Yunlong's broadsword team, the combat engineer regiment, and the sharp knife battalions of various troops.

"Hooray, hooray!"

Looking at the troops of the Eighth Route Army pouring in like a tide outside the position, Inoue closed his eyes in despair, and then opened his eyes again, a little red, he pulled out his command knife, held it high, led the last remaining soldiers, shouted Long live, and launched a suicidal counter-charge against the Eighth Route Army that rushed up.

Then...... They were wiped out along with the soldiers.

A generation of executioners, war criminals with innocent blood on their hands and unspeakable crimes, have come to an end once and for all.

Li Yunlong, who rushed to the scene after hearing the sound, jumped out of the tank and rushed to the position to search for the figure of the old devil Inoue, but when the body of the well was carried out, the whole person had been blown up beyond recognition by the shells, and only the two generals on the collar badge could vaguely identify his identity.

"Damn, it's a pity, we originally thought that we could capture this old devil alive, maybe it would be of great use!" Li Yunlong said regretfully.

Then he sighed, this old devil in Inoue can be said to be the highest-ranking Japanese officer killed by the Eighth Route Army in the War of Resistance for so long.

On the other side, in the direction of the Devil's Battalion, the reinforcements of the 13th Division and the Ushijima Manchu Division failed to get closer, but were separated from the battlefield and recuperated by the counterattacks of the 771st Regiment, the 772nd Regiment, the 386th Brigade, and the friendly and neighboring troops.

Harada joined the 101st Division and the 26th Division, and retreated back to Yanmen Pass.

The devil fought hard for a few days, and it can be regarded as returning to the original point.

If you want to say what you have gained, it is estimated that there is only Harada, and all the materials seized in Yanggao have been brought back to him.

Not only that, Harada led the team to withdraw to Yanmen Pass on the front foot, and received information from the front-line intelligence officers on the back foot, saying that the Eighth Route Army on the Datong side seemed to be withdrawing.

Harada pondered, shouldn't the Eighth Route take the initiative to abandon Datong and Zhangjiakou after completing the established campaign goals with the help of Datong and Zhangjiakou's battles, in order to avoid unnecessary decisive battles in the future?

If that's the case...... His chance for Harada is here again!

Harada immediately arranged for the front-line reconnaissance troops to keep an eye on every move of the Eighth Route Army in the direction of Datong.

Soon after, the main force of the Eighth Route Army was gradually withdrawn from the Datong area, and Harada seized the opportunity to lead the troops, taking advantage of the complete emptiness of the Eighth Route Army's strength, to launch an attack in the midst of a deliberate noise.

Sure enough, Datong was captured in one fell swoop.

After the news was sent back, in the Iron Triangle Joint Command, Kong Jie couldn't help but laugh:

"I'll just say it, Harada, this old devil is the best at exploiting loopholes, as long as there is a chance in the Datong direction, this old devil will come when he smells it!"

"This time, in front of the two major group armies of the devils, we ate the 14th division of the Kwantung Army in Yangyuan, the devils can be said to have suffered heavy losses, the so-called beating a stick to give a sweet date, after all, we can't push the little devils too hard, lest the devils and dogs jump off the wall in a hurry, and even kill wantonly in the occupied areas."

"As the old saying goes, boiled frogs in warm water, we just want to use this way of advancing and retreating, and eliminate the little devils little by little in this land that has always belonged only to us Chinese."

"When the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression ends one day and the little devils return home after defeat, they should be glad that it is not to withdraw from China, but to finally escape back under the killing of our Eighth Route Army!"

……

As for the defense of Zhangjiakou, it also chose to abandon it on its own initiative after smoothly covering the withdrawal of all front-line combat troops to the base area.

Soon after, the Japanese army reoccupied Zhangjiakou in hesitation and panic.

At this point, around Datong and Zhangjiakou, a large-scale battle between the Japanese army and the Eighth Route Army came to an end.

Judging from the general situation, the Japanese army seems to have completed the set campaign objectives, successfully captured the two important cities of Datong and Zhangjiakou from the hands of the Eighth Route Army, and could use these two cities to form a confrontation with the base areas of the Eighth Route Army.

The Eighth Route Army also accomplished the set campaign objectives.

Not only with the help of this battle around Datong and Zhangjiakou, a large number of military supplies were seized.

The most important thing is that it has completed an unprecedented feat - under the noses of the two major armies of the Japanese army, the 14th Division of the Kwantung Army that ate the devil in the Yangyuan area alive.

This seems to be the opposite of the Zhejiang-Jiangxi battle between the Chiang army and the Japanese army.

Judging from the final result of the Battle of Zhejiang-Jiangxi, Chiang's army regained the lost ground and drove the Japanese army out of the defensive line, and it seems that the victory was won.

And the little devil also completed the set campaign goal, destroyed the airport in the Zhejiang-Jiangxi region, and with the help of a large number of military supplies captured along the way, achieved the purpose of feeding the war with war.

At present, around the battle between Datong and Zhangjiakou, the Japanese army recaptured Zhangjiakou and Datong, and it seems that it has won.

But the Eighth Route Army also accomplished the set campaign objectives.

Isn't that nice, everybody's happy?

...... "Yaga, bastard, these damn Yachi-ways!" ”

However, in Beiping, in the Temporary General Headquarters of the Japanese Army's Chinese Dispatch Army, the commander-in-chief of the devils, Junroku Hatata, was furious and smashed everything that could be seen on the desk.

The 14th Division of the Kwantung Army was heavily surrounded by the Eighth Route Army in the Yangyuan area.

In the end, only a few scattered troops escaped, which were almost negligible.

In other words, the 14th Division can be said to have been completely annihilated by the Eighth Route Army in the Yangyuan area.

You know, this is an almost full Japanese elite Kwantung Army 14th Field Division!

For the Japanese army, this was an unprecedented and great humiliation.

In order to stabilize the morale of the army, the Japanese army announced to the outside world that the 14th Division was surrounded by the main forces of the Eighth Route Army and the three armies in the Yangyuan area, suffered heavy losses, and was forced to withdraw to Manchuria and reorganize the army.

After that, whether it was the Kwantung Army or the Chinese Dispatch Army in the Guannai, the situation of the 14th Division of the Kwantung Army fighting in Yangyuan was kept secret, and it was listed as a secret incident of the troops.

This was followed by a great deal of hype that the Empire of Japan had completed the set goals of the campaign and successfully recaptured Datong and Zhangjiakou from the Eighth Route Army.

In the final analysis, the little devil is a dumb eater of Coptis chinensis, and he can't say the bitterness, no matter how much pain and anger he has, he can only bite his steel teeth and swallow it in his stomach.

Relatively speaking, the Japanese army continued to win victories in the Pacific theater and in Southeast Asia.

At this crucial point, at a high-level military meeting held in Peiping, Hata Junroku pointed out in particular: "In any case, in order to ensure the smooth operation of the Pacific Theater and the Southeast Asian Theater, we must do everything possible to maintain the operations in the occupied areas within China, as a stable rear, and provide logistical support for the operations in the Pacific Theater and the Southeast Asian Theater." ”

In response to the battle around Datong and Zhangjiakou, in the end, he fell for the tricks of the Eighth Route Army, and even was eaten by the 14th Division by the Eighth Route Army under the cover of the two major group armies.

Although he was very unwilling, the helpless Hatara Junroku still proposed:

"With regard to the troops of the Eighth Route Army and the Central Army on the Chinese battlefield, the strategic policy should be adjusted according to the actual situation.

From now on, without an order from the General Headquarters, all armies and units must not boldly launch an attack on the base areas of the Eighth Route Army, and if they move from the strategic offensive stage to the strategic defensive stage, the operations against the Eighth Route Army should be mainly on defense and the stabilization of the main county towns and communication lines.

When necessary, officers at all levels should make judgments and abandon some unnecessary county towns and towns and concentrate forces to stabilize the law and order in existing important counties, towns, and towns.

As for the frontal battlefield against the Central Army, under the condition of ensuring that the troops of the Eighth Route Army do not intervene arbitrarily, they can seize the opportunity to launch an offensive on an experimental basis in order to accumulate materials, equipment, and equipment, and continue to implement the strategy of nourishing the war with war. ”

At this point, with the supreme order of Hata Junroku issued.

The morale of the Japanese troops in all major theaters, especially the Japanese troops in North China, was low.

The headquarters of the Japanese North China Front, Naosaburo Okabe, who had only just taken office, made deployment adjustments in accordance with the supreme order issued by Junroku Hata.

He took the devil staff officers in the general staff department to circle the areas belonging to the base areas of the Eighth Route Army on the operational map, one by one, with eye-catching red lines.

Then a special order was issued to withdraw all the defensive forces that were close to the red circle, and concentrate their forces to defend the main county towns and towns and communication lines.

At this point, the Japanese army's operational thinking against the Eighth Route Army in North China was greatly reversed.

In the past, the Japanese army strengthened public order in the security areas, cleared the townships and swept away the townships in the guerrilla areas, and resolutely swept and eliminated the base areas of the Eighth Route Army.

Now......

"In view of the Eighth Route Army's efforts to stabilize its base areas, with the aim of resolutely not provoking it, and for our army's quasi-security areas, it is mainly a formal crackdown and investigation, and if it is greatly hindered, it is not necessary to be too serious, and for our army's stable occupation areas, it is still mainly to strengthen public security."

In the headquarters of the 35th Division of the Japanese Army, after Harada finished speaking, he also added:

"Actually, why should we fight to the death with the Eighth Route Army?

In recent years, through our private business dealings with the Eighth Route Army, we have continuously paralyzed the Eighth Route Army's military sense of smell, and further stimulated the economic development of the areas occupied by our 35th Division.

Our troops are also getting stronger and stronger, and now they can be described as strong and strong.

If you want me to say, this is the best way to deal with the Eighth Route Army, it is better to kill the Eighth Route than to paralyze the Eighth Route Army, anyway, before the Pacific Theater and the Southeast Asian Theater are completely over, the battle situation in the Chinese battlefield will not be clear after all!

Ladies and gentlemen, let us work together to make the area under our 35th Division the best area for development in the occupied areas of the Japanese Empire! ”
