Is the Eighth Route Army going to attack Taiyuan?

Hanaya Masashi and Miyazaki Masao were also panicked, and Yamamoto Kazuki's face was quite calm, but his face also changed.

Although Yamamoto Kazuki has excellent psychological quality, facing Li Yunlong is like facing a big mountain, and a huge sense of oppression comes to his face, which makes him a little breathless.

In two years, the record of killing 16 generals of the Japanese army made him, a self-proclaimed special expert, ashamed and ashamed.

The best thing that Yamamoto's special forces can achieve is that they only killed a lieutenant general and division commander of the national army.

In this battle, if the First Army stationed in Taiyuan is completely annihilated, I am afraid that Li Yunlong will have to add a few more to the list of Japanese generals killed, and there are still several.

In the headquarters of the First Army alone, there were 4 officers above the rank of major general.

In addition to the commander of the 41st Division, the commander of the 1st Cavalry Brigade, the commander of the 14th Brigade and the commander of the 18th Brigade, and 4 generals, there are 8 Japanese generals in Taiyuan and its surroundings.

While Yamamoto Kazuki was thinking about it, Iwamatsu Yoshio swept the three of them and said, "The Eighth Route Army is about to attack Taiyuan, what do you think?" ”

"Your Excellency, Commander!" Chief of Staff Hanaya Zheng took the lead and said, "I suggest that the defense be arranged immediately, and the center of gravity of the defense should be arranged in the direction north of Taiyuan, although the 129th Division in the southeast of Jin Province has many troops, but the new regiment in the northwest of Jin Province has the fiercest firepower, and their soldiers are the most elite, we can transfer the 41st Division to the north of Taiyuan, the 14th Brigade and the 18th Brigade are south of Taiyuan, the 1st Cavalry Brigade and the Yamada Wing are in reserve, and at the same time order the 37th Division and the 33rd Division to prepare to reinforce Taiyuan." ”

Miyazaki Masao also said: "General Okamura Ningji, will definitely not sit idly by and watch our first army be wiped out, so we will definitely send reinforcements over, as long as we can hold Taiyuan for a month, the reinforcements will definitely arrive, and the siege of Taiyuan will be lifted by then." ”

Iwamatsu Yoshio nodded, and when he saw that Yamamoto Kazuki was contemplative, he asked, "Yamamoto-kun, what do you think?" ”

"Your Excellency Commander, I'm wondering, could this be the Eighth Route Army's plan to encircle and send reinforcements?" Yamamoto Kazuo was slightly stunned, he didn't want to talk more, but Iwamatsu Kazuo asked so, and he had to say what he thought in his heart.

"Reinforcements?" Iwamatsu Yoshio asked, "Where is the Eighth Route Army surrounding, where is it fighting?" ”

Yamamoto Kazuki said: "Of course, it is to surround Taiyuan, fight the 33rd Division, the 37th Division, and the 1st Division in Datong!" ”

"Of course, this is just my speculation, if the Eighth Route Army can't help, it is likely to attack Taiyuan in a hurry."

"If the Eighth Route Army attacks Taiyuan, we must order the reinforcements to be cautious, so as not to fall into the Eighth Route Army's plan to encircle and send reinforcements."

Hearing this, Yoshio Iwamatsu nodded again, and Yamamoto Kazuki's words made sense.

But anyway.

The Eighth Route Army will certainly take major combat operations in the near future, and the target is precisely the First Army stationed in Shanxi.

Iwamatsu Yoshio said: "Hanaya-kun! ”

Chief of Staff Hanaya straightened up.

Iwamatsu Yoshio: "Just arrange according to your method, let the 41st Division defend the new 1st Regiment of the Eighth Route Army in the northwest of Shanxi, the 14th Brigade and the 18th Brigade, defend the 129th Division, and order the main forces of the 33rd Division and the 37th Division to assemble and stand by, ready to reinforce Taiyuan at any time!" ”

"Hey!" Hanaya was bowing his head suddenly, turning around and walking away quickly.

……

Just when the Japanese army was in full swing and preparing to deal with the attack of the main force of the Eighth Route Army.

Northwest of Shanxi.

Zhao Jiayu.

The new regimental headquarters.

Liu Dali reported to Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang: "Report to the head of the regiment and the political commissar, the situation of this senior agent has been roughly clarified. ”

Li Yunlong asked, "The devil's senior agent has been recruited?" ”

I have to say that this senior agent is really hidden, who would have thought that an ordinary cook would actually be a senior spy of the Japanese army?

If it weren't for the technical assistance provided by Boss Chen, it would have been really difficult for Li Yunlong and them to find him out.

This product is deeply hidden, and second, it is very cautious, and only when high-value information is obtained, will the flaws be exposed.

Liu Dali responded: "That's not true, this old devil didn't say a word, and he still hid poison in his teeth, but I have ordered the soldiers to knock out the poisonous teeth." ”

Hirayama Kiyosuke wanted to take poison and commit suicide, but as soon as he was held down, a stinky sock was stuffed in his mouth, and he didn't have time to bite through the poison capsule.

Zhao Gang asked, "What the hell is going on?" ”

Liu Dali told Li Yunlong about the situation he had mastered.

This devil's senior agent, named Hirayama Kiyosuke, is lurking in a military subdivision of the Eighth Route Army's Southern Hebei Military Region.

After receiving Okamura Ningji's order, Hirayama Kiyosuke took a letter of introduction from the Southern Hebei Military Region to the relatives of Taoshugou Village in the northwest of Shanxi.

Last time, the Eighth Route Army in the northwest of Jin Province ambushed the 1st Division, because the second battalion was outside for field survival training at that time, the cooking soldiers did not follow, and when the second battalion received the order, the second battalion commander Zheng Yu directly pulled the team to join the large army, and only returned to Taoshugou after the battle.

Therefore, Hirayama Kiyosuke did not know that the main force of the new regiment ambushed the 1st Division.

After listening to Liu Dali's report, Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang were afraid for a while.

It's dangerous!

If the operational plan of the ambush of the 1st Division was exposed, not only would it not make a profit, but the Japanese army would have set up an artillery wing and a heavy artillery wing in the distance and shelled the ambush area of the new 1st regiment, the independent regiment, and the new 2nd regiment, and the losses of the new 1st regiment would certainly not be small.

"Wang Jinma?" Zhao Gang thought about it carefully and said, "I have an impression of this name, in that batch of suspicion lists, my fishing plan actually didn't fish him out?" ”

"Or a high-ranking agent?" Li Yunlong didn't have a good breath and said, "It has to be our old Li himself, otherwise rely on you kid, and Ma Yue in the Year of the Monkey can pull him out?" ”

This time, the real combat target of the new regiment is the 33rd Division and the 37th Division of the Japanese Army, if this senior agent is also followed, it is likely that he will be aware of the abnormality, and when the time comes, the information will be sent to Okamura Ninji, so that the 33rd Division and the 37th Division will slip away, and it will be a wasted effort.

Fortunately, before the combat operation, the high-ranking agents of the devil were arrested.

The corners of Zhao Gang's angry mouth twitched slightly, if it weren't for Boss Chen's technical assistance, ten Li Yunlong wouldn't have been able to find a senior agent.

Zhao Gang asked, "Lao Li, what about this senior agent?" Shot? ”

Agents and spies are not in the category of prisoners, and even if Li Yunlong shoots Kiyosuke Hirayama, the headquarters will not blame him.

Li Yunlong thought for a while and said: "Don't shoot him first, send a few more people to take care of him, don't let him escape and commit suicide, and then interrogate him after the war, and find a way to pry his mouth open, this person may still be useful to us in the future." ”

Zhao Gang nodded, the senior agent was pulled out, and the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

Li Yunlong's expression was solemn: "Chief of Staff, immediately order the main forces of the new second regiment and the independent regiment to move closer to my new regiment!" ”

"Yes!"

Wang Dehou responded loudly.

Subsequently, Wang Dehou personally drafted a telegram and asked the telegram soldiers to send it to the New Second Regiment and the Independent Regiment.

Li Yunlong sighed with emotion: "Boss Chen's radio monitoring vehicle is really something, and it is invincible to use it for counter-espionage." ”

For counter-espionage, if it is an ordinary agent or spy, Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang can deal with it.

But when it comes to high-level agents or high-level spies like pangolins, it is more difficult to deal with them, and I have experience in this area, but not much.

Even if the experienced underground party makes a move, they dare not say 100% that they can find out the enemy's high-level agents.

But.

If you don't have enough experience, you can make up for it.

Zhao Gang said: "According to Boss Chen, this radio monitoring vehicle is much more advanced than the radio monitoring vehicle of the little devil, I suggest that there are more such vehicles in the future business, and each military region of our Eighth Route Army is equipped with 1 or 2 vehicles, which are specially used to fight against the devil's senior agents and senior spies." ”

This radio monitoring car is still an account on credit from Boss Chen, and it is not given by Boss Chen for free, but it is to be repaid by killing devils.

However, the price of the radio monitoring vehicle is not expensive, as long as you kill the devils of 1 squadron, you can change it at Boss Chen.

"Makes sense!"

Li Yunlong nodded while thinking about it.

How important intelligence is to modern warfare, Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang have long been aware.

With the intelligence support of Boss Chen, the battle plan made by the Japanese army headquarters was just made the day before, and the battle plan of the Japanese army was placed on Li Yunlong's desk the next day.

Although sometimes, the battle plan that Boss Chen got was not so detailed.

However, even if you know the general offensive ideas of the Japanese army, you can formulate a corresponding targeted battle plan according to the operational ideas of the Japanese army, and then win the battle.

Li Yunlong decided that after the battle was over, he must build a few more radio monitoring vehicles.

It's better to have a little bit of information, and don't let the Japanese know about it.

……

The next night.

The main forces of the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment came to assemble in the defense area of the New First Regiment.

Like the new 1st Regiment, the Independent Regiment and the New 2nd Regiment have completed their pre-war mobilization, as well as the distribution of ammunition and dry rations, and are ready for a big fight.

The main forces of the Independent Regiment and the New 2nd Regiment were to rest in the defense area of the New 1st Regiment before moving north.

The Japanese secret posts, strongholds and checkpoints lurking on the road from northwest Jin to Datong have been figured out by the Sword Squadron.

All it takes is for the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment to send some elite troops to cooperate to take out these outposts, strongholds, and checkpoints.

After that, the main forces of the Independent Regiment and the New 2nd Regiment could go north to Datong along the road and attack the 1st Division.

After a short rest, the main forces of the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment marched in the direction of Datong at night.

At the same time, the main force of the new 1st Regiment advanced to the east in the Wutai Mountains and the North Taihang area.

The main force of the 129th Division in the southeast of Shanxi, almost at the same time, divided its troops and marched north in the direction of Datong, Shouyang and Yangquan.
