Last night, Xie Tian sent away a shell of the Kwantung Army's Yokono Division, Major General Abe Saburo, the commander of the Abe Brigade, as well as two large Zuo and four Nakasa, and the commander of the First Army in North China, Yoshio Shinozuka was furious after hearing the report, and ordered the Pingyuan County garrison to sweep away the resistance forces near the Tongpu Railway at all costs, and to request support from the Taiyuan garrison if necessary.

According to the enemy's attack methods reported by the Zhangzhuang stronghold, Shinozuka Yoshio concluded that the enemy who attacked the Zhangzhuang stronghold was a small group of eight roads or the Jin Sui army, and they only attacked the train that Abe Saburo was riding by mistake.

The Abe Brigade was the vanguard of the Yokono Division, one of the two divisions of the Kwantung Army in northwestern Jin, but he did not expect to be severely damaged by this less than a day after entering northwestern Jin, and this battle severely damaged the morale of the North China Army and the Kwantung Army, and if it could not be repaid to the Chinese tenfold and hundredfold, Yoshio Shinozuka could not explain to Yamada Otsuzo, the commander of the Kwantung Army who had just taken office and strongly supported him.

If he knew that he had killed a major general, two Dazuo, and four Zhongzuo with a single shot last night, I am afraid that he would have to laugh and bubble his nose when he slept last night.

It's just a pity that I didn't have the opportunity to inspect the results of the battle in person, and it would be better if I could cross my waist and lecture in front of the remnants of the defeated soldiers of the Abe Brigade.

After receiving the order of Yoshio Shinozuka, he immediately gathered the remnants and transferred the devils of the two squadrons of the Zhangzhuang stronghold to temporarily put together a wing, and added a company of the Imperial Cooperative Army to lead the way, and came to seek revenge along the rut mark with great momentum, but he did not expect that the people of Dagu Town had run out.

Xie Tian didn't intend to cover up the trajectory of his movements at all, he just wanted to lure the devils of Zhangzhuang's stronghold out of Zhangzhuang's stronghold, which was as hard as a turtle shell, and lead them to Dagu Town, where he had an absolute advantage, to grind them to death, and train those soldiers of the Jinsui Army who had newly joined the team by the way.

It's just that after knocking out the military train, Xie Tian realized that the devil's revenge might be more cruel than he imagined, and after he came back, he adjusted his strategy and divided the battalion.

Now Xie Tian's strategy has begun to adjust again, and his eyes are on Zhang Zhuang, who is temporarily empty of troops.

If Zhangzhuang can be taken and the Tongpu line can be completely cut off, then the reinforcements of the two divisions of the devils will be blocked in the northwest periphery of Shanxi, and strategically the devils can only carry out a sweep to move forward, counting from the nearest Shanyin, the scope of the devil's sweep will affect seven counties, and the Central Army, the Jin Sui Army, and the Eighth Route Army will be involved, and the scale of the battle is no less than another battle of 100 regiments.

At that time, the entire northwest of Shanxi will be a pot of porridge, and there is a high probability that Mr. Peng will transfer the Eighth Route Army fighting in North China to support the northwest of Shanxi, and Yan Laoxi will only be able to fight against the water if he is put on fire, I am afraid that Jiang Guangtou will also send the Northeast Army that retreated to Shaanxi to join the war group, if that is the case, half of China will be fully moved.

And the key node that triggered this big war was in the hands of Xie Tian.

Zhangzhuang, as long as Zhangzhuang is taken, the anti-Japanese enthusiasm of the Chinese people will be rekindled.

So this battle must be fought, and it must be won.

Now thankfully is thinking about how to get the biggest victory at the least cost.

It is impossible to fight this battle without bloodshed.

But Xie Tian himself was still injured, even if he was stiff, he had to get through this battle.

This time, Xie Tian simply wore only a pair of single pants and sat on the kang around the quilt, and asked people to carry the sand table to the kang, and various observation posts shuttled back and forth to report the enemy's movements.

More than 3,000 devils all entered Dagu Town, and they were unwilling to go back empty-handed.

Gathered in front of the sand table at the Xie Tian regiment headquarters, Yamada Jiro, the supreme commander of the original Zhangzhuang stronghold, introduced the situation of the enemy and us marked on the sand table to Nobumura Sasaki, and revised several inaccuracies he knew on the sand table.

Although it was only a matter of pulling out a few flags and planting a few flags, the situation of friend and foe had already undergone subtle changes.

When Sasaki Nobumura first arrived in the northwest of Shanxi, he was not even familiar with the mountains and rivers in the northwest of Shanxi, but fortunately, thanks to the sand table of Xie Tian, he could intuitively understand the situation in the northwest of Shanxi, and then there was Jiro Yamada, a person with rich experience in fighting in the northwest of Shanxi, he already had a general understanding of the current situation.

The situation in the northwest of Jin was far more complicated than he imagined.

In the Kwantung Army, the main enemy they faced was the Soviets, followed by the all-pervasive resistance to the United Nations.

In the northwest of Shanxi, they had to face the Central Army, the Jin Sui Army and the Eighth Route Army, and Nobumura Sasaki didn't even understand the difference between these three armies, weren't they all Chinese troops under the leadership of the Chongqing government.

Tie Dan entered the headquarters from the tunnel with a sad face, and said to Xie Tian: "The little devil is grunting around the sand table and I don't know what he's talking about, godfather, I think they are all big officials, or I'll just make them all abrupt." ”

Xie Tian scratched his head and looked at Wu Wenhua: "Do you understand Japanese?" ”

Wu Wenhua grinned: "Baga, Yoxi, Sayounara, you can understand these few, do they count?" ”

"Roll"

Tang Hao'er glanced at Xie Tian: "Why don't I go and listen?" ”

Xie Tian remembered Tang Hao'er's translation of the Japanese medicine bottle, and nodded cautiously: "You be careful, no matter what you hear, don't make a sound." Tiedan, you go with your godmother. ”

Iron Egg hummed, pulled the bolt of the gun, and opened the safe.

Tang Hao'er got up and took out the small Browning, looked at Xie Tian and said, "I drank the soup, it's cold." ”

Xie Tian didn't hesitate to pick up the fish soup and drank it all in one go, the fish soup was made by Tang Haoer, and the chicken soup was made by Li Chunxiang, this can't be mistaken.

Tang Hao'er snorted and entered the tunnel entrance, and Tie Dan hurriedly squeezed to the front: "Godmother, wait a while, I'll open all the mechanisms, wait for me to close it." ”

The agency doesn't recognize people, and if you step on it, your own people will still be recruited.

The tunnel was narrow and could only bend over to walk, Tie Dan walked in front and closed the mechanism one by one, opened the wooden door that was chased in by fire, poison and devils, and touched the passage until he turned around and made a silent gesture at Tang Hao'er.

I could already faintly hear someone talking from above, but I couldn't hear what was being said.

Tang Hao'er knew that there was a devil on top of her head, her heart was pounding, and she was holding the Browning in her hand, and her palms were already in cold sweat.

Tie Dan quietly touched the exit of the tunnel, put his ear on the cover and listened for a while, making sure that there was no movement in front of him, and then put down the gun and held the cover with both hands and moved to the side little by little.

As the first cover was removed, the voices outside could be heard more clearly, but the voice was still a little hazy, and it was still difficult to hear what was being said when the speed of speech was too fast.

Tie Dan looked back at Tang Hao'er, and Tang Hao'er shook his head lightly at Tie Dan.

Tie Dan carefully moved the first layer of cover, and then up is the bottom plate of the counter, and when the bottom plate is opened, the person can stand up and be half in the counter, and he can also check the situation outside through the observation holes on the counter.

It's just that the devil searched the house when he came here, and the devil at the big counter that was enough to hide people naturally wouldn't let it go, and the counter door was not closed after the search, and half of the person's body was exposed in the counter, although there were still three sides to cover it, but the risk of exposure was still very great.

Tie Dan squatted down and whispered to Tang Hao'er: "The devil opened the counter door, godmother wait for a while, I'll see if I can close the door first, close it before you go out." ”

Tang Hao'er grabbed Tie Dan's arm: "You be careful, if you can't do it, you can open the bottom plate with a slit, and you should be able to hear it clearly." ”

Tie Dan grinned at Tang Hao'er: "Don't worry, godmother, I'll be careful." ”

Tang Hao'er knew that Tie Dan would not be reckless, so he nodded and gently pinched his arm.

Tie Dan smiled back and stood up quietly, holding the bottom of the counter with both hands, holding his breath and moving a slit slightly.

With this slit, the sound of outside speech can be transmitted into the tunnel more clearly.

Tang Hao'er breathed a sigh of relief and began to listen seriously.

In the command headquarters outside, Nobumura Sasaki was still carefully watching the sand table, and now he finally figured out the relationship between the Central Army's Jin Sui Army and the Eighth Route Army, and looked at Yamada Jiro with a slight frown and asked: "Yamada-kun, you have been in the northwest of Jin for a few years, and you said that it should be that unit that attacked us last night?" ”

Jiro Yamada shook his head: "I'm not sure about this, the Eighth Route Army is the best at night attacks, but the Eighth Route Army rarely has heavy firepower, and they are not good at mobile combat." As far as I know, several of the main regiments of the Eighth Route in the vicinity were not equipped with cars. The car target is too big, which is not conducive to their hidden whereabouts. ”

"That's Jin Suijun?" Nobumura Sasaki asked with a frown.

Yamada Jiro said uncertainly: "This possibility is more likely, the equipment of the Jin Sui Army is even slightly better than that of the Central Army, and they have this mobile force." Moreover, the strength of the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army entrenched here is not bad, and the strength is equivalent to one of our brigades. It's just that last night's combat methods didn't look like Chu Yunfei's doing. This person only likes to fight regular battles, and this kind of fighting style is more like Li Yunlong's style. ”

Stealing chickens and petting dogs.

Tang Hao'er, who was hiding in the tunnel, wanted to laugh.

Isn't this exactly Xie Tian's style, which of these battles Xie Tian has fought during this time is not stealing chickens and dogs.

But it was this stealing chickens and dogs that hit the enemy hard, whether it was the Japanese devils or the Jin Suijun, they all suffered the loss of stealing chickens and dogs.

At this moment, a strong north wind blew, and the two wooden doors of the headquarters were blown open by the wind and slammed into the wall, and the glass on the doors was almost shattered.

Xie Tian's strong wall Qingye was very thorough, and even the cotton curtain hanging at the door was taken off and brought into the tunnel.

Even if that thing is used as a quilt, it can protect people from the wind and cold, which is better than giving it cheaply to the devil.
