Yamamoto explained: "Li Yunlong has never served in the Chinese government army and has no contact with any agencies of the Chinese government. Before the Imperial Holy War, this person was a little-known figure in the Chinese Communist Army. According to regulations, Imperial Intelligence

The department only collects information on officers of the imperial or imaginary enemy army at the major general or division level or above."

Hearing this, Yoshio Shinozuka looked at Yamamoto angrily.

Yoshio Shinozuka felt a dull pain in his chest, and he felt stuffy and uncomfortable.

"Yamamoto-kun!" Yoshio Shinozuka snapped, "You are a special officer who was sent to Germany for further study. You are an excellent soldier, but you don't understand your opponent at all. This is so inappropriate!"

Yamamoto Kazuki paused slightly, lowered his head and said nothing.

"So, you definitely don't know where Li Yunlong's Eighth Route Army is now." Shinozuka Yoshio continued.

Yamamoto hesitated: "Maybe..."

"Yamamoto-kun, no, it's not possible. I want the exact location, coordinates, and location on the map!"

"We have more than one million elite army troops in China."

"A few small ambushes can't hurt our skin."

"The lives of the hundreds of imperial soldiers who died for their country are just a few hundred more names at the Yasukuni Shrine."

"I am thinking about the dignity and shame of our First Army!"

"If Li Yunlong is not killed, the honor of our First Army will be ruined and we will never be able to avenge ourselves!"

Yamamoto paused and said: "I understand, General!"

Yoshio Shinozuka continued: "In this sweep plan, I have ordered all six aircraft on reconnaissance missions to be transferred back to conduct aerial reconnaissance. Your special agents will provide full assistance on the ground. You must find the Li Yunlong Department of the Eighth Route Army and give it to me.

Tear him to pieces and chop off his head!"

Yamamoto: "Your Excellency General, I am ready and waiting for the fighter planes to appear. The newly selected special forces members will be tempered in the flames of war and make contributions to the First Army!"

Yoshio Shinozuka nodded: "Yo Xi!"

…

After receiving the mission from the brigade commander, Li Yunlong and Wei Dayong returned to the Independent Regiment.

Independent Regiment Department.

Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang and Wei Dayong gathered around the table, staring at the map.

Wei Dayong compiled the information collected by the Langya team before and reported: "Guanshan Town is located at the junction of Wuxiang, Qixian and Pingyao counties, guarding the Baijin Railway and Baijin Highway. The geographical location is

Very important.”

"The Japanese regard this place as a major stronghold on the Baijin Railway. They have stockpiled a large amount of explosives for road construction and have more than 1,000 laborers stationed there."

"The Japanese and puppet troops each have a reinforced squadron, with a total strength of 500 people."

Since Wei Dayong had not planned to take action against Guanshan Town before, his understanding of the place was relatively limited. For example, he did not know much about the Japanese firepower configuration.

It is much more difficult to conquer such a military important place run by the Japanese than to defeat the Huting stronghold.

For example, in Xiadian Town back then, if Wei Dayong hadn't lured the Japanese out, it would have been almost impossible for Wei Dayong to invade Xiadian Town and completely annihilate Sato's brigade.

"It looks like a hard nut to crack." Li Yunlong looked a little solemn and looked at Wei Dayong: "Call Zhang Dabiao and let's go to Guanshan Town to have a look!"

Wei Dayong: "Okay!"

Li Yunlong shouted outside: "Communication Corps!"

"arrive!"

A young and clever soldier, carrying a rifle on his back, ran in and saluted Li Yunlong.

Li Yunlong: "Go and ask Zhang Dabiao, commander of the first battalion, to come to the regiment headquarters immediately!"

"Yes!" the soldier responded, and then ran outside.

Zhao Gang urged: "Old Li, Guanshan Town is an enemy-occupied area after all. The enemy situation is complicated, so you must pay attention to safety."

"Don't worry, Old Zhao." Li Yunlong said, "We are not going to fight the Japanese. We are going to conduct reconnaissance. We will be back soon."

Zhao Gang looked at Wei Dayong again: "Wei Dayong, you must ensure the safety of the group leader."

Wei Dayong nodded: "Don't worry, political commissar, I'll bring the Wolf Fang Team with me to make sure nothing goes wrong."

Zhao Gang: "Okay, leave early and come back early."

About twenty minutes later, Zhang Dabiao walked into the courtyard of the regiment headquarters in a hurry.

"Report!"

Zhang Dabiao's loud voice suddenly roared, causing the ears of the security platoon soldiers standing guard at the door to buzz.

Li Yunlong: "Damn, why are you shouting so loudly? I'm not deaf yet, come in!"

Zhang Dabiao walked into the room and looked at Li Yunlong: "Captain, are you looking for me?"

Li Yunlong: "Hurry up and change your clothes. You, I and Wei Dayong, the three of us will go to Guanshan Town to have a look."

Zhang Dabiao's expression changed, and his eyes couldn't help but shine a little: "Is there a military operation?"

"Yeah." Li Yunlong nodded.

The three of them changed into common people's clothes, took Li Yunlong's guards with them, and went to Lijiacun with Wei Dayong's Langya team.

Then more than ten people all dressed up as ordinary people and rode fast horses towards Guanshan Town.

The Baijin Railway started construction in June 1935, but was forced to stop due to the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War in 1937.

In June 1939, the Japanese army forcibly recruited a large number of laborers from Hebei and Shandong provinces to continue the construction along Yan Xishan's suspended project.

When the Japanese army built it, the starting and ending points were changed from Dongguan in Qi County to the suburbs of Changzhi according to needs. The Japanese army called it Donglu Road.

Because the name is too confusing, our military and civilians still call it the Baijin Railway.

This railway, with a total length of more than 300 kilometers and a track gauge of only 1 meter, has become a thorn in the side of our military and civilians from the moment it was built.

It is also one of the important transportation lines that our military and civilians focus on and destroy.

Wei Dayong and the others marched non-stop, and it took them nearly three hours to approach Guanshan Town.

The Japanese built the railway foundation to a height of five feet, with deep ditches on both sides to prevent the Eighth Route Army from destroying and crossing.

Bunkers were built at regular intervals along the way, and Japanese and puppet troops were stationed inside to protect the railway.

The Japanese also built strongholds at important traffic thoroughfares, such as crossroads.

Li Yunlong, Wei Dayong and Zhang Dabiao were lying on the top of the mountain, observing the defense situation of Guanshan Town with binoculars from a distance.

After watching it for a long time, the three of them all felt that it was a bit tricky. This bone was not so easy to chew.

However, the three of them have similar personalities. They are all the kind of people who get more excited the harder the battle is.

If it can be defeated easily, then there is no challenge.

Zhang Dabiao held a piece of dogtail grass in his mouth.

Wei Dayong pointed at Guanshan Town: "Captain, Lao Zhang, look at the two commanding heights in the north of Guanshan Town. There are bunkers built on the mountains. The railway passes between the two highlands. No matter which direction you approach the railway, you cannot avoid the bunkers.

fire blockade."

Zhang Dabiao spit out the dogtail grass and said: "We can't use force to attack. There is a flat plain in front of the bunker. No matter how many lives there are, it won't be enough."

Li Yunlong pursed his lips and looked at Zhang Dabiao and Wei Dayong, who were all talking nonsense.
