Rise from the sword

Chapter 281 Chen Fan!Investigate!

"General."

In Taiyuan, Kazuki Yamamoto walked into the headquarters with a stack of intelligence materials. After bowing his head and saluting, he went straight to the topic:
"Zhu Ziming sent new information."

"Recently, five days after the Shijiazhuang Air Force Station was attacked, Li Yunlong once again obtained a large amount of food and weapons and ammunition provided by Chen Fan. The total amount is more than [-] tons."

"There are [-] to [-] tons of grain, more than [-] tons of canned meat, and about [-] tons of weapons and ammunition, but the specific categories are not clear."

More than 100 tons of food supplies and weapons and ammunition, even if there are hundreds of big mules, the transportation is a big project. Most of the soldiers in the regiment participated in the transportation work, and considering this, there is no need to hide it, and to avoid Zhu Ziming's suspicion , Li Yunlong also asked Zhu Ziming to participate in the transportation work, so he can roughly guess the specific quantity of materials.

In addition, there was a big gap between Zhu Ziming's guess and the actual amount of supplies, so Li Yunlong let him pass them on to the devils.

"More than one hundred tons of food and weapons and ammunition..."

Shinozuka Yoshio immediately began to rub his forehead.

Whether it is ninety tons of grain, ten tons of canned meat, or fifteen tons of weapons and ammunition, this is not a small amount, and at the same time, it is also a very serious problem.

According to the basic consumption of an army, even with the consumption level of the imperial army, this is enough for Li Yunlong to form a brigade-level elite army, and the Eighth Route Army consumes much less supplies than the imperial army, so it may be able to pull out a full brigade .

And he could only watch helplessly as Li Yunlong used this batch of supplies to recuperate, develop and grow, and recover the scars from the battle with Oshima Suga's brigade before, but he was powerless.

Let's launch a raid.

After the Shijiazhuang Air Force Station was attacked, he had already started to prepare, but the North China occupation area was too large, and the 10,000+ North China Front Army was deployed, and the troops were simply not enough. In addition, the strategy launched by General Gangcun after he took office was that the entire North China General Strategy, there are actions everywhere, and the military strength is becoming more and more tense.

As the commander of the first army, he couldn't even mobilize the strength of a full brigade, so he was really aggrieved.

If you want to eliminate Li Yunlong, or lower your requirements, stop his development, and force him to move, considering the deep mountainous area where he is now, you need to send at least 3000 troops to complete the task, and you need to be equipped with a considerable number of heavy weapons.

Secondly, there is another problem, that is, materials.

A regiment of 3000 people equipped with a sufficient number of heavy weapons needs to prepare a large amount of supplies to fight in the mountains. After all, the imperial army's superior firepower and strong combat effectiveness require a large amount of supplies to maintain, and it also needs enough troops. To maintain the transport line, at least a 1000-person transport team is needed. After all, it is the base of the Eighth Route Army, and their forte is to sneak attack on the imperial transport team.

In the past few years, the empire has suffered losses from guerrilla warfare and ambushes of transport convoys.

But the empire is not rich, and the front line is fighting with the government, and the replenishment of supplies is really slow.

However, with his full efforts, the next sweep against Li Yunlong's base area has passed, but he is seriously dissatisfied with the speed. At this speed, it may take half a year to launch an attack.

One thing he didn't understand was that the supply of materials from the mainland was much slower than before, and repeated urgings were useless. Even when he asked a lieutenant general officer, no one paid attention to him.

"Chen Fan..."

Gritting his teeth and uttering these words, Shinozuka Yoshio's eyes were dark.

Unable to deal with Li Yunlong for the time being, and being overwhelmed by all kinds of troubles, Shinozuka Yoshio can only turn his attention to this mysterious person.

Without the weapons, ammunition and supplies provided by this person, this Li Yunlong would definitely not be so difficult to deal with. Without the information provided by this person, how could Li Yunlong's so-called special team attack the pilot depot in Shijiazhuang?
Everything is this person.

"General."

Yamamoto's forehead jumped, and he couldn't help reminding:

"This Chen Fan, we currently don't have any information on this person, and Zhu Ziming has no access to this person. In the entire independent regiment, only officers above the battalion have the opportunity to contact this person."

Yoshio Shinozuka's headache was Li Yunlong, and Kazuki Yamamoto's headache was Chen Fan.

He has been investigating for more than a year, more than a whole year!Then nothing was investigated, which was simply frustrating.

"There is no need to deal with this person."

Yoshio Shinozuka continued to grit his teeth: "He must have transportation channels for more than 100 tons of materials. As long as we cut off his transportation channels, no matter how much materials he has, he will not be able to transport them in."

"There are only two roads for so many materials to enter the Republic of China. The roads on the Yunnan-Burma side, or the sea transportation along the southeast coast. The roads in the north simply don't have such a large transportation capacity."

"The base camp attaches great importance to this matter. We can mobilize more imperial intelligence forces. I will personally talk to General Doihara and ask him to personally intervene in this matter, and mobilize senior spies from the government to investigate this matter."

"As for the southeast coast, I will negotiate with the Navy."

"..."

Yamamoto's mouth twitched, but he didn't speak.

Obviously, his own general was in a fit of anger at this time, and he lost his mind.

Although he has neither the right nor the strength to investigate where the supplies of Li Yunlong provided by Chen Fan were produced and transported into the Republic of China, but he, who controls the entire intelligence department of the First Army, does not even know how the other party transported them. Those who entered the guerrilla base areas were not investigated clearly.

I am afraid that this investigation will mostly be fruitless.

and····
Negotiating with the Navy, are you... serious?

"Staff..."

Taking a few deep breaths, Yoshio Shinozuka regained his composure. Several staff officers he called:

"Order the roads, railways, and the city garrisons and forts around the mountain road, as well as the hidden intelligence personnel, to fully investigate how this Chen Fan's supplies entered the Eighth Route Army's base area."

"At the same time, launch a reward order. If anyone can provide accurate information about Chen Fan, a reward of 100 million oceans will be rewarded."

"Under heavy rewards, there must be brave men."

"I don't believe it. This person organized such a large transfer of victims and gave Li Yunlong hundreds of tons of weapons, ammunition and food supplies. No one knows about him?"

"Hi."

The staff officer took down the order and quickly began to draft the telegram and order.

It seems that the preparations for General Shinozuka's new mopping up plan are not progressing smoothly... Kazuki Yamamoto thought to himself.

"I'm drafting an order to the captain of Shou County."

Shinozuka Yoshio said suddenly.

After the staff officer left, Yoshio Shinozuka was in a much better mood, and said to Yamamoto, "The investigators from the base camp, and the captain sent by the Fifth Division to study special operations, will you return to Dayangquan tomorrow?"

"Hi."

Yamamoto bowed his head: "Their convoy will arrive in Yangquan tomorrow morning."

However, when Yamamoto heard that the [-]th Division was studying as the captain of the special operations team, he subconsciously felt a little uncomfortable and his face became stiff. His special operations were finally promoted, but the promoter turned out to be Li Yunlong, at the cost of fifteen pilots from the empire. Yu Sui, this made Yamamoto very uncomfortable.

"You have a good relationship with Chief Kosa Shinji."

Shinozuka Yoshio warned: "Let him strengthen his safety work, and there must be no accidents. The incidents of the observation group and the pilot station must never happen again."

"Hi."

Yamamoto bowed his head regretfully.

"How long will it take for your secret service team to be built?"

Shinozuka Yoshio continued to ask.

"It will take another five days."

Kazuki Yamamoto replied: "The handover of troops will take a long time."

"Boost."

Yoshio Shinozuka narrowed his eyes.

He also plans to use the Yamamoto Special Team to deal with Li Yunlong!

······
Shou County.

Inside the headquarters.

"Captain, urgent call from Taiyuan."

A staff officer ran in.

"urgent telegram···"

Hearing the word Urgent Telegram, Kotaro Ito felt his scalp tingle instantly.

Urgent call, urgent call.

He hated these two words the most. Usually, these were very troublesome orders that were difficult to complete, and there were urgent time requirements and severe penalties for delay.

In an instant, he began to regret being the captain again.

Wouldn't it be nice to be a major and deputy captain?Although the power is not great, the pressure is not great. You may not get so much money, but it will not be too little, and there will be no risk of seppuku or jade fragmentation anytime, anywhere.

Moreover, there is Li Yunlong here!

Li Yunlong, who almost wiped out the full brigade of the Type A Division.

Being the captain here, he might as well just commit seppuku.

"read···"

Just about to let the staff read it, but thinking that it was an urgent call, Ito Kotaro, who was anxious, took it over to read it himself.

He began to watch the urgent telegram with an anxious expression, but after reading it, Kotaro Ito frowned instead, and the smile on his face showed that he was in a happy mood.

"Yo Xi."

"General Shinozuka ordered us to maintain a high level of vigilance and not to have any military friction with Li Yunlong in the near future."

Ito Kotaro nodded.

This is exactly as he intended.

"Order."

The staff officer happened to be here, so he directly issued an order: "Close the city gate, all squadrons will be stationed at the fortress at the gate of the city, stop patrolling around the city, and all villages around the county will be abandoned."

"All the troops in the surrounding gun towers have also withdrawn."

"Hi."

The staff officer bowed his head and said yes.

"Captain, is that the garrison on the right?"

asked the staff officer.

Li Yunlong's independent regiment is on the left side of Shou County, and the right side is the base of the new regiment.

"Withdraw it too."

Ito Kotaro made up his mind to be a turtle.

Anyway, General Shinozuka said in the telegram that he would lie dormant for a period of time, and when the front army is ready, it will launch an unprecedented sweep to completely solve the problem of the Eighth Route Army guerrillas.

He is hiding in the city and is safe.

······
"The little devil retreated again?"

In Xujiacun, the Independent Regiment Headquarters, Li Yunlong looked at the newly received information, his face was full of surprise, and his brows were also frowned.

Since he killed the Devil's Class A Division Brigade, he has re-established the intelligence department, and it is more complete than before. The remaining puppet army has been infiltrated by him. If the little devil has any orders and news, he may be independent. The regiment knew better than the leader of the puppet army.

"The devils retreat?"

Zhao Gang looked over and saw Li Yunlong's expression, his tone suddenly became puzzled.

It's a good thing for the devils to retreat, why do you still have this expression?
"See for yourself."

Li Yunlong handed the news to Zhao Gang, but he said directly: "Not only Jiazhuang, but even Xiaohezhuang and Madao Village, two kilometers away from Shou County, the devils have all evacuated."

"Even the concrete blockhouses have given up."

"The cement blockhouses have all been abandoned?"

Zhao Gang also twitched the corner of his mouth.

The independent regiment has only killed four of the concrete blockhouses built by the cage tactics, and there are devils in two of them.After all, the remaining two are too close to Shou County, and are even within the range of the Little Devil Mountain Cannon. With the current absolute advantage, there is no need to head-on with the Devil.

Unexpectedly, the devil actually gave up by himself.

"Little devil, this is definitely a shrinking turtle, troublesome."

Li Yunlong clicked his tongue and cursed:
"The labor and management still want to fight a few battles with the little devils in Shou County, so that the recruits can exercise and exercise. When they see blood, damn it, the little devils shrink back. There are no puppet troops here. Where can the labor and management go to practice soldiers?"

Although the current situation is very good, Li Yunlong is very clear that the next time the independent regiment will face even more crazy attacks from the devils, he has no time to train slowly, and can only use actual combat to hone the recruits.

"You can only train slowly."

Zhao Gang also sighed.

If there is enough actual combat, the growth rate of the troops can be several times faster. This is how the independent regiments grow up. However, correspondingly, they will also suffer relatively large casualties, but this is also an unavoidable thing.

Bringing immature troops to fight the devils will also cause heavy casualties. It is better to control the situation at the beginning and take the initiative to participate in actual combat, and the casualties can be much less.

"Let's strengthen the actual combat exercises."

Zhao Gang looked at Li Yunlong who was thinking: "Otherwise, can we still go to fight devils in the county?"

Although Shou County is located in a remote place, the county seat is not small, with a large population, high city and deep pools. It is not enough for the independent regiment to have all the members, even the new first and second regiments.

"Humph··"

Leader Li snorted coldly, spread out the map around Shou County and looked at it, the corners of his mouth curled up, and his tone was gloomy: "The little devil wants to be a coward, so you think I can't trouble him?"

"He thinks beautiful."

"What do you want?"

Zhao Gang narrowed his eyes.

"Investigation..."

Li Yunlong chuckled.

　There are not [-] words, so I must get a chapter at night, otherwise I will not be full!
