Forthwith.

Li Yunlong asked Chief of Staff Wang to prepare a telegram to send to the headquarters the matter of Yan Laoxi's instructions to install agents and spies in the arsenal technicians, as well as the list and Li Yunlong's plans.

……

Southeast of Jin.

Liao County.

Headquarters of the Eighth Route Army.

"The devils of the 33rd Division withdrew from Nakajo Mountain?"

Looking at the information in his hand, the chief was slightly surprised.

The headquarters was preparing to plan an attack on the 33rd Division of the Japanese Army at Nakajo Mountain.

Even if the 33rd Division could not be eliminated, at least the 33rd Division would be disabled, but I didn't expect the 33rd Division to take the initiative to withdraw from Zhongtiao Mountain.

After a pause, the chief asked again, "When?" ”

"Yesterday's thing." The chief of staff replied, "The 33rd Division has boarded the train from Yuncheng and marched along the Nantongpu Railway in the direction of Taiyuan, and at present, the 14th Group Army of the National Army has crossed the Yellow River to the north, claiming to have recovered Zhongtiao Mountain, Yuncheng and Yuanqu County from the hands of the 33rd Division of the Japanese Army. ”

Okamura Ningji was mainly attacking the northwest of Jin, and there was a serious shortage of troops, so he had to abandon Zhongtiao Mountain and let the 33rd Division withdraw to the Zhengtai Railway.

In order to ensure the opening of the battle, the smooth flow of the Zhengtai Railway.

The side of Zhongtiao Mountain is more than 300 kilometers away from the headquarters, and the troops have not developed much on the side of Zhongtiao Mountain, there are only a few guerrillas, and the means of communication are backward, so the information about the retreat of the 33rd Division came the next day.

At this time, the military column of the 33rd Division was about to arrive in Taiyuan.

The headquarters plans to attack the 33rd Division, and it is necessary to draw up an operational plan and mobilize combat materials, and the troops will run more than 300 kilometers to fight, and the preparatory work in the early stage will be relatively long.

Before the headquarters could make a move, the 33rd Division had already slipped away from Nakajo Mountain.

The boss snorted and said: "The national army is moving very fast, the Japanese army just left yesterday, and today it has recovered such a large territory in the southwest of Shanxi." ”

"It should be that the Japanese army greeted the national army when they retreated." The chief of staff analyzed.

The chief nodded, and the chief of staff made sense of his analysis.

In the Battle of Zhongtiao Mountain in May last year, the Japanese army dispatched 6 divisions to attack the 200,000 Central Army in Zhongtiao Mountain, and it did not take much effort to defeat the Central Army and drive the Central Army across the Yellow River.

If the southwest of Jin fell into the hands of the Eighth Route Army, within a year or two, it would be operated by the Eighth Route Army as if it were airtight.

If the Japanese army wants to attack Nakajo Mountain again, it will be very difficult.

And if the situation changes in the future, if the Japanese army wants to attack Zhongtiao Mountain again, and it is the Central Army that is stationed at Zhongtiao Mountain, then it will be much easier for the Japanese army to take Zhongtiao Mountain.

After a pause, the chief of staff said again: "The 33rd Division can't run, just when we have a big counteroffensive, we will solve this 33rd Division together." ”

But the chief suddenly thought: "Man, you said that the Japanese 33rd Division withdrew to the Zhengtai Railway at this time, could it be related to the Japanese army's sweep in March and April?" ”

The chief of staff crossed his arms and pondered, "Chief, you mean, it has something to do with that reminder from Boss Chen?" ”

The chief nodded.

Boss Chen reminded the Eighth Route Army that the Japanese army began in March this year, and the North China Front Army would carry out a large-scale sweep of the Eighth Route Army.

The chief guessed that at this time, the 33rd Division was transferred back to the Zhengtai Railway, and it was very likely to be related to the Japanese sweep.

The headquarters has ordered all military districts of the Eighth Route Army to step up preparations for the next large-scale sweep by the Japanese army, which is very likely to be launched.

"It's not impossible." The chief of staff nodded and said, "Last time, Li Yunlong issued a letter to the compatriots of the whole country and the Japanese army invading China, Okamura Ningji's combat target is very likely to be the northwest of Shanxi, and the withdrawal of the 33rd Division to the Zhengtai Railway may be related to the Japanese army's attack and sweep of the northwest of Shanxi." ”

The boss suddenly had a headache and said: "Li Yunlong, this kid is really a troublemaker, as soon as his clear code telegram is sent, it is very likely that the large-scale sweep of the Japanese army will rush to the northwest." ”

The meaning of the head of the headquarters is also to let the new regiment rest for a few months.

After all, the Eighth Route Army counterattacked, and the new regiment was the absolute main force.

In layman's terms, the Eighth Route Army wants to sing a big drama in Shanxi, and the protagonist of this big drama is Li Yunlong and his new group.

Only when the new troupe rests and trains well can they sing the upcoming big drama well.

But Li Yunlong is not a person who can be idle, and he can still raise three feet of waves for you without wind, let alone fight devils, he is sitting and sleeping thinking about how to fight devils.

"Maybe Li Yunlong deliberately attracted the hatred of the Japanese army." The chief of staff said with a smile, "After all, the bigger the battle Li Yunlong wins, the richer he gets." ”

The chief nodded and said, "We have to send a telegram to Li Yunlong, Ding Wei and Kong Jie, the Japanese army is very likely to attack the northwest of Jin, so that they can prepare in advance." ”

"Chief, you're overthinking." The chief of staff smiled slightly, "Believe it or not, Okamura Ningji made a battle plan the day before, and the next day Okamura Ningji's battle plan was placed on Li Yunlong's table." ”

The chief suddenly smiled and said: "Haha, how did I forget Boss Chen, in the headquarters of the North China Front of the Japanese Army, there are senior spies of Boss Chen." ”

Thinking that Li Yunlong had Boss Chen on his side to provide intelligence, weapons and ammunition, the chief was relieved.

After a pause, the chief said again: "However, I still want Li Yunlong, Ding Wei and Kong Jie to remind them, so that they can be mentally prepared." ”

"Okay, I'll make a telegram."

The chief of staff smiled slightly, even if the chief knew that Li Yunlong would receive information, he still had to send a telegram to remind him.

This shows that the chief likes Li Yunlong more and more.

A cadre like Li Yunlong is simply a treasure, who wouldn't like it.

The chief of staff had just finished drafting the telegram and asked the chief to sign it.

A telegraph soldier walked in quickly with a telegram in his hand, and gave a military salute: "Report to the chief, a new regiment of telegrams!" ”

The chief of staff looked moved, took the telegram in the telegraph soldier's hand, and then handed the telegram in his hand to the telegraph soldier: "Xiao Zhang, send this telegram to the new 1st Regiment, the 386th Brigade Independent Regiment and the 386th Brigade New 2nd Regiment." ”

"Yes!"

The telegraph soldier named Xiao Zhang took the telegram and quickly turned to leave.

The chief of staff picked up the telegram from the new group and read it, and then a trace of anger appeared on his face.

"What's going on?"

The chief's heart jumped slightly: "It can't be that this kid Li Yunlong poked out something, right?" ”

"Not really." While handing the telegram to the chief, the chief of staff said with some anger, "Li Yunlong sent a telegram saying that Yan Xishan instructed the agents of the military commander and the spies of the Japanese army to be placed in the technicians of the arsenal, and even the list was obtained, and Li Yunlong applied for a lesson to Yan Xishan. ”

Hearing this, the chief was suddenly startled, picked up the telegram and read it.

After reading the telegram, the chief slapped the telegram on the table and said angrily: "This Yan Xishan! ”

The Eighth Route Army sincerely did business with the Jin Suijun, but Yan Laoxi made small moves behind his back, which was simply a villain's behavior.

Needless to say, the chief and the chief of staff both knew that this list must be the information provided by Boss Chen, and with the intelligence capabilities of the new regiment, they could not get such detailed information.

Even the list of military commanders and Japanese spies is listed, so there is no doubt about the authenticity.

This Boss Chen is really a great benefactor of the Eighth Route Army...

The chief sighed secretly.

If the agents of the military command and the spies of the Japanese army were allowed to mix in the technicians of the arsenal and then participate in production, I am afraid that it would cause incalculable losses to the arsenal industry in the northwest of Shanxi.

Although the chief had a big temper, after reading this telegram, he quickly calmed down again.

The chief said to the chief of staff: "Agree to Li Yunlong's request and let Li Yunlong teach Yan Xishan a lesson, but... We must remind Li Yunlong not to be charged with sabotaging the anti-Japanese national united front. ”

Yan Xishan secretly made a mistake, but after all, the Eighth Route Army did not have substantial evidence.

At this time, it is not appropriate to make a big move against the Jin Sui Army, after all, Yan Xishan is still nominally the commander of the Second Theater and is in charge of the Eighth Route Army, and now the main enemy of the Eighth Route Army is still the Japanese army.

Although there was friction between the Eighth Route Army and the Jin Sui Army, no one dared to fire the first shot, because they were afraid of being charged with sabotaging the anti-Japanese national united front.

"Understood!" The chief of staff nodded, "I'll send a telegram to Li Yunlong and ask him to pay attention to the scale." ”

……

Taiyuan.

The headquarters of the 1st Army of the Japanese Army.

"Report to the Commander."

Yamamoto Kazuki carried the major general's command saber, walked into the commander's office, came to Iwamatsu Yoshio, bowed his head and said:

"The six Locust Army agents I arranged have been infiltrated into the technicians of the Jin Sui Army Arsenal, and with the help of the Jin Sui Army, they have obtained a reasonable identity."

Although Kazuki Yamamoto has reached the rank of major general, he has no real power in his hands.

At present, Yamamoto is mainly responsible for the defense of the Japanese army in Taiyuan, as well as the intelligence work of the First Army.

This made Yamamoto Kazuki miss the former commander of the First Army, Yoshio Shinozuka.

If the current commander of the First Army is still Yoshio Shinozuka, then after he Yamamoto Kazuki is promoted to major general, he can be mixed with a brigade commander as a high and low.

"Yo Xi!"

Yoshio Iwamatsu smiled slightly, in a happy mood:

"The locust army tried hard to install agents and spies in the Eighth Route Army in the northwest of Jin, but they failed, but they didn't expect to find a breakthrough in Yan Xishan's body."

Iwamatsu Yoshio has received information that the Eighth Route Army will use 5,000 American-style equipment to exchange skilled workers in the arsenal with the Jin Sui Army.

However, the specific time and place, Iwamatsu Yoshio did not get it.

Otherwise, when the Eighth Route Army and the Jin Sui Army made a deal, he would directly apply to the North China Front Army Command to send bombers to blow up the arsenal skilled workers and 5,000 American-style equipment.

Hehe... Li Yunlong still wants to set up an arsenal, and he also has to ask the locust army if he agrees!

Yamamoto nodded: "What Your Excellency Commander said is extremely true, this Yan Xishan still has some use value. ”

"Yamamoto-kun, I have good news for you."

Yoshio Iwamatsu looked at Kazuki Yamamoto and said:

"The loudspeaker anti-tank weapon you captured, after the research of the Locust Ordnance Department, has made a breakthrough, the sample of the anti-tank weapon has been made, and it is currently in the experimental stage, and it is very powerful, and it can be used against the heavy tanks of the Eighth Route Army."

"Next month, a batch of anti-tank weapons will be delivered, and priority will be given to equipping our First Army."

Yamamoto Kazuki looked rare and slightly happy: "Yo, West!" ”
