Yoshio Iwamatsu frowned slightly: "Send the 226th Regiment to help?"

If the 226th Infantry Regiment is sent out for reinforcements at this time, there will be only the 227th Infantry Regiment in the north.

At most, there is an artillery regiment, but using the artillery regiment to deal with the Eighth Route Army, which is good at guerrilla warfare, is of little use.

Because the Eighth Route Army will not engage in positional warfare with you, and the artillery regiment's mountain artillery moves slowly in mountainous areas, and it is easy to attract the Eighth Route Army's aircraft.

It would not be a wise move to allocate troops from Heshun and Liao County at this time.

However, the 225th Regiment still needs to be rescued. There are more than 3,600 imperial soldiers there. Of course, troops must be mobilized for rescue. Being surrounded by tens of thousands of people, it stands to reason that they can break out of the siege.

However, the 225th Wing sent a distress telegram to the headquarters and division headquarters, and it seemed to be very urgent.

At this time, the situation of the 225th Wing is probably not optimistic.

Yoshio Iwamatsu asked Tadao Matsui: "Matsui-kun, where is the 41st Division?"

Matsui Tadao walked to the map hanging on the wall and pointed at the map: "The 41st Division has arrived in the Langwogou area, but was stubbornly blocked by the main force of the Eighth Route Army!"

Iwamatsu Yoshio looked at the map and his face suddenly sank. The 41st Division was still 30 miles away from Wuxiang.

Not to mention heading north to support the 225th Regiment. By the time the 41st Division arrives, the 225th Regiment may be dead.

Yoshio Iwamatsu asked in a deep voice: "How many troops are there in the Eighth Route Army blocking the 41st Division?"

"This..." Matsui Tadao paused, "It's not clear yet. The Eighth Route Army used sparrow warfare, buried mines, and blew up bridges to block the attack. The 41st Division reported that they encountered the Eighth Route Army and just deployed heavy firepower.

The Eighth Route Army just ran away, leaving no room for the 41st Division to fight head-on, so we haven’t yet figured out the strength of the Eighth Route Army, maybe it’s a regiment, maybe it’s a brigade!”

"Baga!" Yoshio Iwamatsu cursed angrily, "Did Lieutenant General Mano die in battle and the warriors of the 41st Division turned into a group of sheep?"

Tadao Matsui did not dare to say anything. In the final analysis, he, as a communications staff officer, was just a messenger who conveyed information and did not seek political advice if he was not in his position.

Miyano Michichi said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency Commander, the top priority now is to send a force, at least one regiment, to Shipan to relieve the siege of the 225th Regiment. Otherwise, when more Eighth Route reinforcements arrive at Shipan, the 225th Regiment will

The entire team may be in danger of being shattered!"

Yoshio Iwamatsu couldn't think of any other way for a while, so he had to say to Tadao Matsui: "Immediately send a report to Lieutenant General Iseki Ren and order the 226th Regiment to rush to the rescue of the 225th Regiment!"

"Hi!" Tadao Matsui paused and walked out.

…

Licheng County, Liudong Village, Eighth Route Army Headquarters.

As soon as the headquarters organs were moved here, the telegraph operators at the headquarters quickly set up antennas to communicate with various troops.

Then turn on the radio and start receiving and sending signals.

Not long after, a radio signal came in, and the telegraph operator quickly picked up his earphones, paper and pen and started receiving the signal.

In the temporary office next to it, the chief of staff said to the boss.

"Boss, according to the report of the Yushe County guerrilla captain."

"A group of Japanese soldiers disguised themselves as our Eighth Route Army and sneaked into our base area."

"All the more than 100 people in Dongjiacun were murdered by the Japanese."

The boss glanced at the map and quickly found the location of Dongjia Village in Yushe County. His pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly.

He said immediately.

"I see that the Japs put on makeup to look like the Eighth Route Army. Their purpose is unlikely to be just to massacre villages and tarnish the image of our Eighth Route Army."

"Their targets are our fighter jets and airports!"

"In the mobile column's plan, there is a provision for moving the airport, but I don't know if our fighter jets have been moved?"

"Don't worry about that," the chief of staff said with a smile. "The security company stationed at the airport has met with the headquarters. The comrades of the security company said that all our planes have been safely transferred to Shanxi North New Airport."

The boss breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that our plane didn't have any accidents, but the Japanese also learned a lesson this time and actually disguised themselves as Eighth Route Army and entered the base area!"

The chief of staff worriedly said: "Be afraid, there may be other Japs disguised as Eighth Route Army and enter our base area, and their target is very likely to be our headquarters!"

"Then order all the troops," the boss said, "to repeatedly verify the identities of the small groups of Eighth Route Army troops they encounter, and at the same time, telegraph to each brigade headquarters to be on guard against beheadings by small groups of Japanese troops disguised as the Eighth Route Army!"

The chief of staff nodded: "Okay, I'll draft a telegram right now!"

After saying that, he took out paper and pen, and in less than a minute, the telegram to be sent to each brigade was drafted.

The chief of staff called the guard: "Give this telegram to the telegraph operator and send it to all brigades immediately."

"Yes!" The guard took the telegram, saluted with a military salute and walked towards the telegraph room.

A moment later, the guard walked into the headquarters office with another telegram and reported to the leader: "Urgent telegram from the mobile column!"

"Give it to me." The chief of staff looked at him. He took the telegram from the guard and read it. He couldn't help but feel happy at the moment.

After reading one page of telegrams and then reading the next page of telegrams, the smile on my face couldn't help but get a little bigger.

"Man, what message did Chen Geng send to make you so happy?" the boss asked with a surprised look.

"Great victory, great victory, boss!" the chief of staff laughed, "see for yourself."

After saying that, he handed the telegram to the boss.

The boss took the telegram and read it, his eyes widened, and then he smiled like the chief of staff.

The content of the telegram, on the first page, is that the mobile column defeated the Japanese 9th Brigade, killed the brigade commander Koshiki Toranosuke, and seized Koshiki Toranosuke's general sword.

The content on the second page is that the Independent Brigade, the 12th Brigade and the Artillery Regiment completely annihilated the 225th Regiment of the Japanese 36th Division.

Before annihilating the Japanese 225th Regiment, the Independence Brigade and the 12th Brigade had no idea that this was the Japanese 225th Regiment.

After the Japanese army was annihilated, the identification number taken out from the Japanese corpses revealed the enemy's serial number.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Great!" The boss suddenly slapped his thigh and said thoughtfully, "This guy can wipe out ten thousand enemies, right?

"

"Not much difference." The chief of staff smiled, "If there is not 10,000, there are at least seven or eight thousand. This is only the first day, and the old devil Yoshio Iwamatsu has lost one-sixth of his troops. Let's see what happens next.

What else can you do?"

"We can't be careless." The boss said solemnly, "Although we won the first battle, we are still at an absolute disadvantage!"

"Yes!" said the chief of staff, "The next step is to see whether the mobile column can lead away the main force of the Japanese!"

The boss nodded and asked: "Has the special agent team arrived at the Huangyadong Arsenal?"

"The secret service team has arrived." the chief of staff said.

"That's good……"

…

"It's a lot of fun, this battle was a lot of fun!"

"Japan No. 3600 was wiped out with less than 300 casualties!"

"If we win a few more battles like this, I don't think we need to go to northwestern Shanxi anymore. The Japanese will withdraw on their own!"

Kong Jie said with a smile while smoking a dry cigarette.

The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. Wei Dayong's expression moved slightly.

The Japanese 225th Regiment was wiped out too quickly. Maybe the Japanese headquarters has not received the news that the 225th Regiment has been completely wiped out.

As for the request for help, the Japanese 225th Regiment must have sent it out.

However, the Japanese telegraph operator probably did not send the farewell telegram of the regimental commander in such a short period of time.

Because the whole process from the two cavalry battalions appearing to breaking up the Japanese circle formation took less than 3 minutes.

It is a pity that although the Japanese 225th Regiment was completely wiped out, the 225th Regiment's flag was not captured.

Seizing the regiment flag is much more difficult than wiping out a Japanese regiment.

However, can you give the Japanese a calabash doll to save grandpa?

After the Japanese headquarters receives the news that the 225th Regiment is asking for help, it will definitely send troops to help relieve the siege of the 225th Regiment.

The only one who can save the 225th Brigade is the 36th Division in the north, and it is impossible for the 36th Division to dispatch all its troops, and it will have to pull up a net to sweep them away.

If they come less, they can only deliver food; if they come too much, they will give up the sweep of the north.

It is very likely that a regiment will be dispatched to assist the 36th Division.

Thinking of this, Wei Dayong said to Li Yunlong and Kong Jie: "Brigadier Commander, Deputy Brigadier Commander, we can actually evacuate without being in a hurry and let the Japanese come to encircle the area and provide reinforcements."

"Where to surround and where to fight?" Kong Jie took a puff of cigarette and asked.

Li Yunlong smoked Laodao brand cigarettes, which he had just picked up from a Japanese soldier, and he puffed away at them.

"Surround the 225th Regiment and fight the reinforcements of the 36th Division." Wei Dayong twisted his neck. In the battle just now, although he rushed fast enough, he only killed 3 Japanese soldiers, which was equivalent to being hot.

Personally, it's far from satisfying.

"But the 225th Regiment was completely wiped out by us?" Kong Jie said, "Will the 36th Division come?"

At that moment, Wei Dayong told Li Yunlong and Kong Jie his thoughts.

Li Yunlong and Kong Jie looked at each other, and their expressions instantly became serious.
