The guards put the two cups of tea brewed in front of Yoshio Shinozuka and Hideyoshi Kusuyama.

"Nanshan-kun, the materials allocated by the front army to the First Army, the first batch of three military columns have set off."

Yoshio Shinozuka stretched out his hand, made a gesture to invite tea, and said: "Since the Zhengtai Railway has not yet been repaired, these three military trains will stop at Baoding and Changshan, and after the Zhengtai Railway is unblocked, the military trains will go to Taiyuan." ”

Three military trains are 3,000 tons of supplies, while the Japanese army's 94 trucks can only transport 1.5 tons at most.

If such a huge amount of material is transported by truck, it will have to be transported to the Year of the Monkey.

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that the railway is the blood and lifeblood of the devil, and the devil has to rely on the railway to transport the weapons and ammunition needed for plunder, and also rely on the railway to transport the plundered resources.

"Your Excellency the Commander is worried..."Kusuyama Hideyoshi instantly guessed Shinozuka Yoshio's thoughts, and asked, "Will the Eighth Route take the opportunity to rob the military column?" ”

"Yes." Yoshio Shinozuka nodded, his tone worried: "The intelligence of the Eighth Route is too powerful, it is simply pervasive, and it should not be difficult for them to get the intelligence of the military column." ”

From the failure of the secret attack on Daxiawan by the special team, to the destruction of the observation group and the 9th brigade, to the shelling of Niangzi Pass, which led to the loss of a major general and a lieutenant general, a wing was heavily damaged...

All of this is top-secret information, but every time Balu can be learned in advance, it shows that Balu has strong intelligence capabilities.

The Japanese army doesn't know anything about the Eighth Road, but the Eighth Road seems to have opened God's perspective, how can this battle be fought?

Even if the Japanese army is well equipped and the quality of individual soldiers is high, it will not take advantage of it.

"Your Excellency the Commander understands the Eight Ways." Kusuyama Hideyoshi said in an affirmative tone: "I dare to assert that the Eighth Road will definitely fight the idea of this batch of supplies." ”

"Oh?" Yoshio Shinozuka was surprised, "Kusuyama-kun thinks so too?" ”

Kusuyama Hideyoshi then said:

"In the past, the Eighth Route may have no intelligence, or maybe it was not strong enough, and it rarely fought the idea of the imperial army's transport columns."

"And now the strength of the Eighth Road in the southeast of Jin is not what it used to be, and it already has the strength to fight head-on with an infantry brigade of the imperial army."

"It's not too difficult for the Eighth Route to rob the military column."

"According to past experience, the Eighth Route will definitely receive information and take action, after all, once this batch of materials is successfully transported to Taiyuan, the Eighth Route will not have a good time."

Although the 9th Brigade was completely annihilated, Yoshio Shinozuka and Hideyoshi Kusuyama agreed that the Eighth Route would win mainly by intelligence and air support.

The Eighth Route Army also has some combat effectiveness in the 385th and 386th brigades, especially Li Yunlong's troops, and other units are not worth mentioning.

And Yoshio Shinozuka thought that Li Yunlong had been promoted to division commander, which frightened him, and after investigation by the intelligence department, Li Yunlong was not promoted to the commander of the Eighth Route Army, and he is still only a regiment commander.

Yoshio Shinozuka breathed a sigh of relief, it's just a regiment commander, the imperial army will wipe you out sooner or later.

At that moment, Yoshio Shinozuka said worriedly: "I'm just worried about this, does Nanshan-kun have any suggestions?" ”

If it had been before the Hundred Regiments Battle launched by the Eighth Road, Yoshio Shinozuka would not have been so worried.

Because the previous Zhengtai Railway had artillery towers or strongholds every 1.5 kilometers, it was not so easy for the Eighth Route to rob the military trains.

And now, although the Zhengtai Railway is about to be repaired, there are no turrets and strongholds as eyes, and the Eighth Route can do it wherever it wants.

It is impossible to prevent it.

"Hey!" Hideyoshi Kusunayama said, "I have an immature idea. ”

Shinozuka Yoshio's expression moved, and he said, "Nanshan-kun, but it doesn't hurt to say it. ”

Nanshan Hideyoshi said: "The most likely place to start the Eighth Road is the section from Jingcheng County to Jinzhong of the Zhengtai Railway, which is about 180 kilometers of railway line. ”

"Now we have the 14th Brigade, the 18th Brigade and the 4th and 5th Infantry Wings of the 2nd Guards Division."

"There are a total of 18 infantry brigades, all of which are mobile brigades, and we only need to station these 18 infantry brigades on the Zhengtai Railway at intervals of 10 kilometers."

Yoshio Shinozuka's eyes lit up slightly: "In this way, no matter where the Eighth Route starts, it will be surrounded and attacked by at least 2 brigades of the Imperial Army within half an hour, and the longer the time drags on, the more troops the Imperial Army will come, and the Eighth Route can only give up." ”

Nanshan Hideyoshi said: "Each military train will increase the number of troops, and then apply to the North China Front for a Type 94 armored train escort to ensure that the train can hold out for at least half an hour if it is attacked." ”

"What's more, even if the Eighth Route destroys all the imperial troops escorting the military train within half an hour, and destroys the Type 94 armored train."

"It takes at least two to three hours to move 1,000 tons of supplies from the Eighth Road."

"Within two hours, at least 2 wings of the elite of the Imperial Army can rush to the scene of the incident."

"Under the pursuit of the elite of the Imperial Army of the 2 wings, there is definitely no way for the Eighth Route to escape with thousands of tons of supplies."

Yoshio Shinozuka followed Hideyoshi's train of thought and said, "Because they are stationed by rail, the supply of these 18 mobile brigades is also very simple. ”

"We can also put smoke bombs, such as revealing fake news to Balu, so that Balu can work in vain."

"The material military train stopped from Changshan and Baoding to the Jingcheng County Railway Station, and the departure time was decided temporarily, so that no one knew the time of the train's departure."

"No matter how powerful the intelligence of the Eighth Route is, it is impossible to know the information of the material army departing from Jingcheng County in advance."

Nanshan Hideyoshi said: "In addition, each mobile brigade sends a small team of soldiers to search and patrol along both sides of the railway every half an hour to prevent ambushes on the eight roads. ”

"Your Excellency, Commander, you see, a whole set of defense plans has been made."

"As long as the plan is implemented properly, a division will arrive in Taiyuan with a ton of war materials."

"Yo Xi!" Yoshio Shinozuka said happily, "Nanshan-kun's strategy, if not seamless, is at least impeccable. ”

"Your Excellency, Commander." Kusuyama Hideyoshi said in a modest tone, "This plan was made by me and His Excellency the Commander. ”

Yoshio Shinozuka said again: "Nanshan-kun, you continue to make the battle plan for the spring sweep, and this time I will have full authority to command the deployment of the mobile brigade and the transportation of materials. ”

"Hey."

……

The half-moon period has arrived, and Chen Feng came to Yang Village by appointment.

It's just that this time, he brought not only Yan Shuangying, but also the widow sister.

The sentry at the entrance of the village knew Chen Feng and immediately let him go.

Chen Feng, Yan Shuangying and the widow sister rode into Yang Village.

Chen Feng and Yan Shuangying have seen many fighters, but this is the first time that the widow sister has appeared.

Blonde hair and blue eyes, a black leather coat outlines the figure, sharp eyes, expressionless beautiful face, thin waist hanging pistol holsters on the left and right, above the pistol holsters, the pistol handle is exposed, just let people know that this foreign woman is not easy to mess with.

The soldiers of the new regiment saw a foreign woman for the first time in their lives, and their eyes almost fell out.

The fighters who were training could see that even the queue was out of order...

"Haha, Brother Chen!"

At the entrance of the new regiment, Li Yunlong received a call from the sentry at the entrance of the village and came out with Zhao Gang to greet him.

Before anyone reached the door, Grand Master Li's loud voice and his unique voice came out.

At this time, Chen Feng, Yan Shuangying and the widow sister walked to the door, just turned over and dismounted.

Seeing Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang coming out, Chen Feng arched his hand: "Brother Li, Brother Zhao." ”

"Brother Chen..."

"Huh?"

Li Yunlong habitually glanced behind Chen Feng, beside Brother Chen, there was actually a foreign girl today.

According to the position of this foreign girl, Li Yunlong judged that it should be Brother Chen's bodyguard.

Zhao Gang also cast a surprised gaze.

Chen Feng said: "Brother Li, Brother Zhao, let me introduce to you, this is my bodyguard widow." ”

The widow sister looked at Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang, and said in Chinese: "Chief Li, Chief Zhao." ”

"Fortunately."

"Fortunately."

Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang arched their hands to the widowed sister.

Li Yunlong was not too surprised that a foreigner appeared next to Chen Feng, he had seen a foreign male bodyguard beside Chen Feng, but he didn't appear later, and he didn't know what to do

Li Yunlong looked at Chen Feng, and the corners of his mouth showed a smile and eyes that all men understand.

It seems that there is no shortage of women around this Brother Chen, and he is really not bragging.

No wonder Brother Chen refused to let us Lao Li get him Japanese girls, it turned out that Brother Chen liked European and American style girls, and he was also a widow.

It's kind of interesting...

"Brother Chen, please come in."

When Grand Master Li was divergent in his thinking, Zhao Gang had already made a gesture of invitation to Chen Feng.

"Brother Chen, please." Grand Master Li also said busily.

Yan Shuangying and the widow sister waited outside the courtyard gate.

Li Yunlong, Chen Feng and Zhao Gang walked into the regiment headquarters together.

As soon as he entered the inner room of the regiment headquarters, Chen Feng saw that the kang table was already full of good wine and food.

Chen Feng was also not polite, and sat cross-legged on the kang.

It was still Chen Feng and Zhao Gang who drank wine, and Li Yunlong drank water.

After three rounds of drinking, Li Yunlong said: "Brother Chen, the Garand semi-automatic rifle you gave me is indeed good, but it is not very suitable for my cavalry, it is a bit heavy and the magazine will automatically pop up after the bullet is finished, which is not conducive to fighting on horseback, brother, do you have a solution?" ”

Chen Feng thought about it when he heard this, this was his negligence, he only thought about providing the strongest firepower for the new regiment, and did not consider the actual situation.

"There is a solution." Chen Feng nodded and said, "I have a semi-automatic rifle here that is more suitable for cavalry." ”

"The M1 carbine, weighing only 4.6 kilograms, is 6 centimeters shorter and 2 kilograms lighter than the Japanese army's 44-type infantry rifle, which should be very suitable for cavalry equipment."

"The ammunition capacity is 15 rounds, and the range and accuracy are quite suitable for cavalry."

"In addition, there are soldiers like the artillery battalion, machine gun battalion and heavy machine gun battalion of your regiment, who can also be equipped with this M1 carbine."

At present, most of the soldiers in the artillery, machine gun and heavy machine gun battalions are not equipped with guns, and only a few fighters are equipped with pistols.

This is indeed a hidden danger, once attacked by enemy troops, they will not even have the ability to defend themselves at least.

And this M1 carbine is only 5 pounds at most with bullets, which has little impact on the weight of the fighter.

Fit for gear.

Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang glanced at each other, and they both saw joy in each other's eyes.

Grand Master Li smiled generously: "Brother, this is boring 1 carbine, give me an advance of 1,500, and there is also a cloud dragon knife, which is also an advance of 1,000." ”
