After listening to this, Yamamoto Kazuki's expression was very exciting.

But Nakamura Zhenxiong said this, clearly wanting Yamamoto Kazuki to command the special task force to dispatch, directly capture the thief and capture the king first, and deal with Li Yunlong, the soul of the independent group.

It's just that if you want to solve Li Yunlong, it's not easy now.

After all, after Zhao Jiayu's raid, now the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army will definitely put the regiment commander Li Yunlong on strict guard.

It is not an easy thing to kill Li Yunlong.

Nakamura Zhenxiong also understood, and then continued to Yamamoto Kazuki: "Yamamoto-kun, it would be best if the special team could kill Li Yunlong before the war. You can't kill it, and it's okay. ”。

"But, let's give it a try, don't we?"

Nakamura Zhenxiong said so, as a current subordinate, Yamamoto Kazuki did not have the pride to refuse the task assigned by Nakamura Zhenxiong.

I saw that Yamamoto Kazuki immediately got up, and immediately said: "Please rest assured, Your Excellency General, do your best to solve Li Yunlong's person before the war." ”。

"Yo Xi!!"

Nakamura Zhenxiong patted Yamamoto Kazuki on the shoulder, nodded and said: "Yamamoto-kun is worthy of being the first person in the theoretical practice of the imperial special operations, whether it is successful or not, I will say a few more words in front of the commander after the war." ”。

"Thank you, Your Excellency!!"

Because of the loss of more than 1,000 soldiers in the battle of Qingzhou City, plus the secret service team lost half of the elite in the raid on Zhaojiayu.

Now that Kazuki Yamamoto's theory of special operations is being implemented, many high-ranking officers who know about Yamamoto's special forces have begun to think that special operations have no meaning.

But Nakamura Zhenxiong said this at the level of division commander, let Yamamoto Kazuki know that this is a promise given by Nakamura Zhenxiong.

"Yamamoto-kun, you immediately command the secret team to set off secretly!"

Nakamura Zhenxiong nodded, and then said in a condensed voice: "Regardless of whether you can successfully kill Li Yunlong or not, even if you kill other independent regiments of the Eighth Route Army, battalion and company-level officers, they will be able to disrupt the independent regiment of the Eighth Route Army to the greatest extent." ”。

"This is also a great help for our surprise counterattack in the early morning, please."

After saying the last sentence, Masao Nakamura still asked Yamamoto Kazuki in a good way.

"Please rest assured, Your Excellency, that the Humble Duty will do its best to carry out the decapitation operation."

Kazuki Yamamoto was also encouraged by Nakamura Zhenxiong's words, and his face was serious.

"Hmm!!"

Nakamura nodded and waved his hand to signal that Kazuki Yamamoto could act immediately.

After Yamamoto Kazuki bid farewell to Nakamura Zhenxiong and went out, Major General Kita Taijiro, chief of staff of the 36th Division, who was standing next to Nakamura Zhenxiong, laughed in a low voice: "Division commander, what should I do if I let Yamamoto Kazuki's special team attack again, and then the whole army will be wiped out?" ”。

"Now if you want to rush to Ping'an County at this time and go to the special operation behind enemy lines to behead Li Yunlong, the possibility of success is probably not very great."

Nakamura Zhenxiong didn't speak immediately when he heard this, but after sitting down, he knocked on the table with his hand, and said with a smile: "At this time, let the Yamamoto special team attack, and the success rate of beheading Li Yunlong behind enemy lines is not large. ”。

"But what if it succeeds!"

After a pause, Nakamura Zhenxiong's eyes suddenly became solemn, and he said in a condensed voice to Major General Kita Taijiro, chief of staff of the 36th Division: "Li Yunlong, this person, in less than a day, attacked and captured Heyuan County in a continuous night attack, and then captured Ping'an County. ”。

"Eat the Sakata Wing of the Fourth Brigade, and the two infantry brigades of the Ito Wing that are reinforcing from the west are in Liujia Town."

"This person is really not to be underestimated, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the soul of the enemy's independent regiment."

Kita Taijiro nodded, that's right.

"Division commander, I have read all the battle reports of the Fourth Brigade before."

Mudo Taijiro said with a serious expression: "Li Yunlong, before he suddenly captured Ping'an County, he had always been a unit of the Eighth Route Army that had good combat effectiveness, but the strength was not very strong. ”。

"But judging from the previous battle reports of the Fourth Brigade Sakata Wing and other battles with the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army, Li Yunlong's Independent Regiment may now have a total strength of about seven or eight thousand people, as if it should be more than about five thousand troops."

Nakamura Zhenxiong nodded and said, "What Mu Duojun said is right. ”。

"However, even if there are only 5,000 independent regiments, we will have to concentrate heavy forces to deal with them."

"The Sakata Wing of the Fourth Brigade has been completely annihilated, and the two reinforcement brigades belonging to another Ito Wing of the Fourth Brigade have also been ambushed by others in Liujia Town, and the whole army has been annihilated."

Nakamura Zhenxiong paused and said in a condensed voice: "In addition to the more than 1,000 people lost by Yamamoto Kazuki after temporarily commanding the defenders of Qingzhou City after being attacked by the independent regiment at night, the casualties of the imperial army after the failure of Yamamoto Kazuki's raid on Zhaojiayu have been as high as more than 7,000 people. ”。

"Therefore, sending Yamamoto Kazuki out to carry out a special operation decapitation behind enemy lines is the best, and if it is unsuccessful, it can also attract Li Yunlong's attention to cover our surprise attack operations in the early morning and night."

Kita Taijiro nodded, and then said: "Division commander, this time you command the 9th Brigade, the 15th Brigade and other units with a total of more than 18,000 troops. ”。

"With such a strong force, I don't believe it, Li Yunlong can still stop it?"

Nakamura Zhenxiong was not as optimistic as Chief of Staff Kita Taijiro, but said: "It's hard to say this time, although there is the support of the command to deploy aviation unit fighters for air coordination, plus the support of more than 20 Type 95 light tanks that have been deployed in place. ”。

"Our concentrated forces, weapons and firepower are already strong enough. However, from the two important places of Qingzhou City and Liujia Town, the enemy's defense is also very close. ”

After asking a devil staff officer to spread out a more detailed map of the northwest of Jin on the table, Nakamura Zhenxiong pointed to the map and said in a condensed voice to Mu Duo Taijiro: "Mu Duo Jun, you see, as long as the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army holds Liujia Town, Qingzhou City and the first-line heavenly and other important places in the northeast of Qingzhou City are enough to block our advance. ”。

"If we can't attack for a long time, it will be a shame for us to the imperial army!"

Kita Taijiro nodded and said, "No wonder the division commander will send out the special team that Yamamoto Kazuki has already lost more than half of to deal with Li Yunlong." ”。

"This is to increase the success rate of this counteroffensive against the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army!"

Nakamura nodded and said, "That's right. ”。

"I hope that Yamamoto Kazuki's secret service team will succeed best this time!"

Kita Taijiro was silent, it's hard to say.

And Yamamoto Kazuki's special team quickly set off from Shuocheng and headed north in the direction of Heian County, of course, by small road.

But time passes, little by little.

In accordance with Nakamura Zhenxiong's order, more than 9,000 people from the headquarters of the 15th Brigade and the 1st Division of the 4th Brigade of the Japanese Army, which had already assembled in Jialin City, walked for four hours before arriving at Liujia Town at 3:47 a.m. the next morning.

At four o'clock in the morning, after Nakamura Zhenxiong also led the 9th Brigade and other units to the area east of Qingzhou City, the 15th Brigade of the Devil first concentrated the two artillery squadrons of the brigade and regiment to totaling more than 12 Type 92 infantry guns to suddenly carry out a fierce shelling of Liujiazhen.

The counterattack on the independent regiment of the Eighth Route Army, the devil heavy army commanded by Nakamura Zhenxiong finally began to move!
