Two days later, Duan Peng led the Langya Squadron to complete the reconnaissance and returned to Yushe County.

In addition to conducting reconnaissance, they also eliminated many lone Japanese soldiers, causing the Japanese and puppet soldiers on the entire Western Front Zhengtai Road to panic.

During the day, only the Japs above the squad level dared to go out and move around. At night, the Japs and puppet troops only dared to stay in the strongholds and gun towers.

At the same time, the Langya Squadron found out the Japanese defense strength on Zhengtai Road from the captured Japanese and puppet soldiers, as well as close reconnaissance.

At the headquarters of the special operations group, Duan Peng looked at Yang Liqing curiously, and Yang Liqing also looked at Duan Peng curiously.

Duan Peng thought to himself, he had only been out for two or three days to carry out the mission, but why did the special battle group have an extra political commissar?

Yang Liqing was also thinking that other regiments either formed special agent companies, reconnaissance companies, or commando teams, but the special operations regiment had a special force, which was quite new.

After the two sides got to know each other, Duan Peng pointed at the map and reported the information obtained by the Langya Squadron.

"The Japanese army has strengthened the defense of Zhengtai Road recently. There are many Japanese in the strongholds along the railway and highway."

"We caught the tongues of the Japanese and puppet troops, and learned from their mouths that in addition to the Japs of the Japanese Fourth Brigade, there were also two regiments of the Japanese 36th Division from Taiyuan to Jingxing."

"A total of four Japanese regiments and a large number of puppet troops guarded Zhengtai Road to ensure the safe transportation of the Japanese troops."

"But I guess it's because the Japanese are afraid of our planes, so the military trains don't dare to send out during the day, and they only dare to send out at night."

"There is a large group of Japanese mobile troops in Shouyang, Yangquan, Niangziguan and Jingxing County."

"These four Japanese mobile forces are equipped with a small number of tanks, armored vehicles and a large number of trucks. If they encounter an attack anywhere along the line, the Japanese mobile forces can arrive within an hour."

Wei Dayong frowned slightly. The Japanese army actually used four regiments to guard Zhengtai Road to ensure the transportation of military supplies.

This is a bit troublesome, but for the current special forces and independent brigades, the best way to make a fortune is to rob Japanese military columns.

As long as a Japanese army train with weapons and ammunition can be robbed, the independent brigade will not have to worry about weapons and ammunition for half a year, and it can even nearly double its strength.

This is the best way to get rich by robbing Japanese military columns while part of the captured items are handed over to the column headquarters.

The reason why we didn't think about it before was because we didn't have enough firepower to deal with the armored trains escorted by the Japanese army. But now that we have a 105-caliber cannon, the armored trains are not something to be afraid of.

Yang Liqing asked: "How many armored trains are escorting the Japanese military train? How many Japanese soldiers are on the military train?"

Duan Peng replied: "Last night, a military train passed by. There were two armored trains escorting it, one at the front and one at the front. As for how many Japanese soldiers were on the military train, I don't know."

Wei Dayong asked: "Have you found a suitable place to do it?"

This is also part of the mission of the Langya Squadron. Wei Dayong gave the order before the Langya Squadron set off.

"In the middle of the road from Jingxing County to Niangziguan, the section from Jinnan Town to Nanyu Town is uphill. The Japanese military trains will move very slowly."

"Moreover, the terrain on both sides of the Taitai Road in this area is relatively complex, which is suitable for ambushes and convenient for blocking Japanese reinforcements."

Wei Dayong nodded: "Thank you for your hard work. Let's take the brothers to rest and eat something first."

"It's not hard work." Duan Peng saluted Wei Dayong and Yang Liqing and walked out.

Then Wei Dayong and Yang Liqing came to the brigade headquarters and reported to Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang and Kong Jie the situation detected by the Langya Squadron.

Then a detailed combat plan was formulated and sent via telegram to the Mobile Column Headquarters and the Eighth Route Army Headquarters.

…

Eighth Route Army Headquarters.

The boss and chief of staff were not idle during this time either.

It was almost a clear sign that the Japanese army was preparing to raid the base areas.

The reason why the Japanese army has not taken action yet is because the necessary supplies for the raids have not yet been arrived.

The boss and chief of staff are also discussing and formulating a combat plan against the Japanese raids.

However, since the specific strength and deployment of the enemy's troops involved in the raids have not yet been determined, the combat plan has not yet been fully formulated.

After staring at the map and studying it for a while, he saw the chief of staff walking in with a telegram. The boss put down his pencil, picked up the cup and took a sip of water. He said in a leisurely tone: "I didn't see any Japanese planes today. It seems like the fake airport worked."

"Wei Dayong, this guy is smarter than a monkey." The chief of staff laughed: "With a little trick, the Japanese lost so many aerial bombs in vain. Now the Japanese must believe that our airport has been destroyed.

Well, when the war breaks out and our plane suddenly appears, it will definitely give the little devil a big surprise."

Later, the chief of staff handed the telegram from the Independent Brigade to the boss: "Boss, this is the battle plan just sent by the Independent Brigade."

The boss's expression changed, and he immediately put down the water glass, took the battle plan and started reading it.

"There is nothing wrong with this combat plan." The boss nodded after reading it. In addition to the combat plan, he also made a detailed emergency plan.

The simple summary of the combat plan is to send a force between Niangziguan and Yangquan to attack the Zhengtai Road stronghold in order to attract the enemy's mobile forces in Yangquan and Niangquan.

Then he started to rob the Japanese troops between Jingxing County and Niangziguan, quickly defeated them, and quickly returned south to the base with the captured troops.

If successful, if Japanese planes come to bomb, then fighter jets can be dispatched to destroy the enemy planes.

Afterwards, the Japanese troops along Zhengtai Road will definitely gather their forces to pursue southward in an attempt to snatch back supplies, and they will also need to arrange troops to block the attack.

It can be said that this combat plan and emergency response plan have taken all aspects into consideration.

"Now that we have the battle plan," the boss said, "we just need information about the Japanese army."

The chief of staff took out another folded telegram from his pocket and said with a smile: "This is the telegram just sent by the comrades of the underground party in Hebei Province. Last night, a Japanese military train entered Baoding, and it has not yet departed.

."

"The Japanese military train parked at Baoding Station unloaded one carriage of supplies that night."

"It happened that one of the coolies responsible for the transportation was our comrade. The comrade deliberately fell down and found that the box was full of bullets."

"After many inquiries from underground party comrades in Hebei Province, this train is the military train that will be transported to the First Army of the Japanese Army in Shanshan."

"That comrade also secretly made a triangular mark on the military column with chalk."

The boss smiled and said: "Whatever you hope for will come. Just when we were about to sleep, the little devil brought us pillows!"

"Send a telegram to the mobile column and the independent brigade and ask them to prepare for action. This military column must be captured!"
