At this moment, the communications staff officer of the army stationed in Mongolia walked over with a telegram in his hand.

"Report to the Commander!"

The communications staff officer nodded to Tataro Gansu: "The commander of the North China Front, Okamura Ningji, will call!" ”

"Read!"

Ganji Jutaro said with an expressionless wave of his hand.

There is no need to guess that he knows that it must have been Okamura Ningji's telegram urging the main force of the Mongolian army to quickly go to Datong.

"Hey!" The communications staff officer first bowed his head, and then read with a telegram in both hands, "The Eighth Route Army has built a defensive position in the area of Gudian and Huayuantun north of Datong City, and orders your troops to go to Datong as soon as possible to defeat the defense line of the Eighth Route Army. ”

Okamura Ninji asked the base camp for tactical guidance, and the base camp finally agreed to transfer a flying team from the Kwantung Army to the North China Front Army to support the operation.

As for the five divisions, they can't come for the time being.

It will take a lot of time to transfer troops from the Kwantung Army and Southeast Asia to North China, let alone the mobilization of war materials.

As for the intelligence that the Japanese army discovered that the Eighth Route Army had built defensive positions in the area of Gudian and Huayuantun.

It was discovered by reconnaissance planes and fighters of the Japanese North China Front Army that went to Datong to reconnoitre.

Originally, there were only more than 30 planes left in the Japanese North China Front, but 8 planes were shot down in Taiyuan, and now there are only more than 20 planes left.

The four battlefields of Datong, Taiyuan, Yangquan, and Shouyang all needed the support of aircraft, and the planes in Okamura's hands were seriously insufficient.

As for the artillery positions of the Eighth Route Army, Japanese fighters and reconnaissance planes found some, but they could not be sure whether they were real or not.

Because the Eighth Route Army pulled a lot of camouflage nets around Datong, some of which were definitely real artillery positions, and some of which were fake.

And the pilots of the devils did not dare to reconnoiter at low altitudes, because once they lowered their altitude, they would be attacked by intensive anti-aircraft fire from the Eighth Route Army.

Ganji Jutaro's eyes lit up slightly: "Yo Xi! ”

The Japanese army did not have an air force, the aviation units of the navy and the army were separated, and the formation of aviation formations was complicated.

There are flying teams of about 20 aircraft, and there are also flying teams of 4 or 50 aircraft.

Looking at it this way, the North China Front can send at least 20 planes to reinforce the main force of the army stationed in Mongolia.

Although the number of planes is too small to determine the outcome of a battle, it is better to have planes than not to have them, right?

Tataro said to the communications staff officer in high spirits.

"Call back Admiral Okamura Ninji immediately!"

"The 3rd and 2nd Brigades of the Tank have joined the 26th Division in Gaoyang County, and they will go to Datong immediately!"

"Please Your Excellency Commander Okamura, order the 1st Division to prepare for a counterattack, and defeat the Eighth Route in one fell swoop!"

The old devil is very forced, and the Eighth Route Army, which attacked the 1st Division in Datong, has very strong combat effectiveness.

Relying only on the main force of the Mongolian army and the air support of a flying team, the locust army has little chance of winning.

But with the addition of the 1st Division, especially the 6th Heavy Artillery Wing of the 1st Division, the Locust Army had a great chance of winning.

After all, this is a strategic-level weapon of the Japanese army.

"Hey!"

The communications staff officer bowed his head suddenly, quickly drafted a telegram according to Tataro Gansu's words, handed it to Gansu Shigetaro to sign, and then turned around and walked away quickly.

After the communications staff officer left, Ganji Shigetaro's eyes and expression suddenly became cold and resolute: "Order, immediately march to Datong!" ”

"Hey—"

Shigetoku Kuroda, Kazusaku Nishihara, and Kanji Nagatsuneoka all brushed their heads.

Not long after, the 26th Division, the 3rd Tank Division and the 2nd Brigade drove along the road in the direction of Datong.

Meantime.

The North China Front Command sent reconnaissance planes and fighter planes to conduct aerial reconnaissance of the road from Gaoyang County to Datong.

In particular, the positions suitable for ambushes are even more focused on aerial reconnaissance.

After all, the 3rd Tank Division is one of the few strategic-level troops in Okamura Ninji and even the entire Japanese Army.

If the 3rd Tank Division had been destroyed by an ambush halfway through, the losses of the Japanese would have been great.

Although according to aerial reconnaissance, the main force of the Eighth Route Army is still outside Datong City, but the Eighth Route Army is full of tricks, and no one can say whether the Eighth Route Army will take advantage of the night to quietly ambush halfway.

The Japanese army had a team of more than 30,000 people, although the Eighth Route Army was not so easy to ambush.

However, more than 20,000 people of the 1st Division of the Japanese Army have been ambushed, and the Japanese army has been ambushed out of the psychological shadow.

Approaching Datong, the Japanese troops stationed in Mongolia became more and more cautious, and constantly sent reconnaissance cavalry to carry out repeated reconnaissance of suspicious positions, and the width of the reconnaissance was expanded to 3 kilometers on both sides of the road.

Until the next morning.

Only then did Gansu Shigetaro lead the main force of the Mongolian army to the outside of Datong City and confront the main force of the Eighth Route Army.

……

"Report to the regiment commander, the forward position exchanged fire with the Japanese reconnaissance cavalry, killing more than 30 Japanese cavalry!"

"The observation post found a large number of Japanese troops, no less than 30,000 people!"

"Found a large number of light and medium tanks of the Japanese army, as well as armored vehicles!"

A piece of information about the Japanese army was transmitted to the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army.

"Lao Tzu has been waiting for two days, and the little devil of the Mongolian army is finally here!"

Hearing this, Kong Jie did not have a solemn tone and eyes, but a touch of excitement on his face.

It was as if an old friend had been waiting for a long time to arrive, and he had already prepared a meal and wine to entertain him.

There are friends from afar, although they are far away, they will be punished!

After a pause, Kong Jie looked at the chief of staff on the side: "The forward positions are all ready, right?" ”

The chief of staff of the independent regiment said in a confident tone: "It's all ready, just wait for the little devils to attack!" ”

"Good!"

Kong Jie knocked on the pipe in his hand on the edge of the table, shook out the cigarette butt in the pipe, and said in a fierce tone:

"In this battle, let's let the little devils of the Mongolian army once again taste the taste of being slaughtered as pigs by the Soviet army in Nomenkan."

Although this battle was not as large as the original Battle of Nomenkan.

However, the Eighth Route Army had large-caliber heavy artillery, Leopard and Xiafei tanks, and in terms of artillery firepower and tank firepower, it comprehensively crushed the little devils.

As for the 3rd Division of the Devil's Chariot, it is indeed a big threat.

However, the Leopard tanks of the Eighth Route Army have already been tested, and they have a 0-to-ten record in the Battle of Xinzhou.

The new regiment of tanks that was destroyed in that battle was still destroyed by the Japanese artillery wing and aircraft.

The devil's bean Ding can't beat the tanks of the Eighth Route Army at all, no matter how much use it is?

The Leopard tank was called a heavy tank by the Japanese army in the Asian theater.

The light tanks and medium tanks of the Japanese army cannot be called tanks in the European theater, but can only be regarded as armored vehicles and lighters, because the Japanese tanks are too thin and have weak firepower.

Moreover, the business of this battle is what Ding Wei and Kong Jie really care about.

"More than 300 tanks, dozens of armored vehicles, my good boy!"

Grand Master Ding's tone was excited: "As long as we destroy or seize one, Boss Chen will give one, Lao Kong, it seems that we are going to make a fortune!" ”

"Isn't it?" Kong Jie smiled slightly, "If Lao Li is here, I guess this kid is drooling all over the ground now!" ”

Compared with the Battle of Nomenkan, in addition to the lack of air support, the Eighth Route Army had both heavy artillery and tanks.

Although the number of tanks was small, they were small in number, strong in firepower, and strong in defense.

Kong Jie picked up the holster from the table, and then looked at Ding Wei: "Old Ding, I'll leave it to you to keep an eye on here." ”

"No problem." Ding Wei's tone was confident, "Lao Kong, you can rest assured that you can command the troops to do it with the devils in the Mongolian army, with me Ding Wei staring here, a devil in Datong City wants to go out of the city!" ”

Subsequently, Ding Wei and Kong Jie saluted each other.

Kong Jie walked out with the chief of staff, deputy commander and several operational staff officers of the independent regiment.

The new headquarters had already been built, and Kong Jie was to go there to command the main forces of the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment, as well as the heavy firepower of the New First Regiment to fight against the Japanese troops stationed in Mongolia.

And handing over the back of the main force to Ding Wei, Kong Jie was very relieved.

……

Outside Yangquan City.

Lion's Brain Mountain.

“￥#！ &*”

“@#￥*&！”

The former enemy headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, Li Yunlong sneezed twice.

Li Yunlong scolded: "Damn, who is thinking about Lao Tzu behind his back again?" ”

At the moment, the street fighting in Yangquan City continues.

As the fighting continued, the Eighth Route Army occupied more and more streets and houses, and less than 2,000 devils were left struggling to support themselves.

If the devil's reinforcements don't come, this is less than 2,000 devils, and it is only a matter of time before they are eliminated.

Of course.

Even if the devil's reinforcements can arrive, they can't save the fate of the 37th Division being wiped out.

Even if Japan's Amaterasu came, he couldn't save the 37th Division.

The main force of the Eighth Route Army attacking Datong has 60,000 elites, and unless the Japanese army comes to more than four second-line divisions, it will have the strength to fight with the Eighth Route Army.

The battle on Shouyang's side is similar to the battle on Yangquancheng's side.

There is not much suspense in the battle between Yangquan and Shouyang, and Taiyuan is covering and assisting.

Although the division commander turned cover and assist into the main attack, the division commander personally commanded it, and Li Yunlong didn't have to worry about it at all.

So, Li Yunlong focused his attention on Datong.

Zhao Gang glanced at Li Yunlong angrily: "Miss you?" I think someone is scolding you kid behind your back, right? ”

"Someone scolded me?" Li Yunlong sneered, "That must be the devil scolding Lao Tzu behind his back, this group of bitches raised it, Lao Tzu hates scolding behind his back the most." ”

In this battle, the main force of the 220,000 Eighth Route Army commanded by Li Yunlong beat the devils to the point that they lost their armor, and it was normal for the devils to scold Li Yunlong.

On the devil's side, you should already know that the commander-in-chief of this battle is Li Yunlong.

Even if you guess it, Li Yunlong's tactics are difficult to fathom, but the command style is still relatively obvious.

Once Li Yunlong finds an opportunity, he will definitely pounce on him like a mad dog.

Moreover, Li Yunlong will only make a move when he is absolutely sure of defeating the enemy.

After all, Bright Sword is a spirit, and if you specifically pick an opponent Bright Sword that you can't win, you will be a fool.

Zhao Gang's expression moved, and he asked: "In the past two days, you have always looked at Datong on the map, and you can see that there is no famous hall?" ”

"Mingtang didn't see it." The corners of Li Yunlong's mouth curled slightly, and his tone was excited, "Our old Li only knows that our Eighth Route Army is going to make a fortune again!" (End of chapter)
