Bright Sword: Hosting the independent regiment, all become special forces

Chapter 243 Towards victory.

At the North China Front Army Command, Neiji Okamura held the telegram in his hand.

Asked in a cold voice: "Has it been verified?"

"Hayi, General, I can confirm that Zhang Wei's troops of the Eighth Route Army have captured Guangling County."

"idiot!"

Neiji Okamura overturned his desk angrily, pulled out the samurai sword behind him and slashed the table wildly.

As if this table is Zhang Wei's body, I can't wait to chop Zhang Wei's three knives into pieces.

"This damn Zhang Wei, this damn Eighth Route Army!"

"Bastard, I want you to die!"

Neiji Okamura, who had vented for a while, put away his samurai sword helplessly, and said in a cold voice, "Order the No. 40 First Division, and speed up the pursuit."

"Hay!"

Because no one knew Zhang Wei's next move, just as he judged that Zhang Wei was likely to continue to attack Datong County, Zhang Wei shot back.

So Okamura Ningji gave him a very vague order to the 41st Division.

"Your Excellency, Division Commander, the Eighth Route Army's Zhang Wei Division has contributed to Guangling County, and the commander ordered us to speed up our pursuit!"

When the 41st Division received the telegram, Yue Jiang Youzhen had actually fallen asleep. Regarding the movement of the Eighth Route Army, Yue Jiang Youzhen actually had his own judgment.

But what Yue Jiangyou really wanted was that Zhang Wei would go east to meet them, which would be much more comfortable than attacking Datong, and if they were repelled or defeated.

In the northwest of Shanxi, there will be a vacuum zone without the deployment of Japanese troops, and there will be enough scope for the Eighth Route Army to move and maneuver.

But now Zhang Wei went south and took down Guangling County.

"Master, what is going on here? Could it be because Zhang Wei and his troops want to come back for help?"

"Zhang Wei's troops moved too fast. How did they manage to capture two heavily guarded county towns within two days?"

Seeing this, Yuejiang Youzhen waved his hand to interrupt the discussion of these combat staff officers: "Don't think so much, the target is Guangling County."

"Hay!"

"At the same time, send a report to General Ningji Okamura to increase the frequency of aerial reconnaissance and lock in advance the movements of Zhang Wei's department."

"Hay!"

Zhang Wei's movement made the entire Japanese army in Northwest Shanxi panic, especially the No.40 [-]rd Infantry Regiment of the Japanese Army, which had already begun to evacuate.

Pingping Xiaotai fought several battles with the main force of the 129th Division in Northwest Shanxi this time, and now encountered the Special Second Regiment that was almost in full condition during the sweeping process.

After a fierce battle, even more than half of the casualties were close to two-thirds of the level, and Ping Xiao had long wanted to find a chance to escape.

Naihe Te's second group bit too hard, so Ping Xiaotai never had a chance.

The Special Second Regiment didn't know why they suddenly chose to leave the battle under the cover of artillery fire, and Pingping Xiaota didn't want to know. Now he took the remaining 800 Japanese soldiers and more than 1000 wounded and sick, and went west to Niangziguan to evacuate.

After he went out, in the Taihang base area, basically there was only one Sixth Division that was still attacking by Zhudu.

There is also the No.11 division that wants to encircle here.

If the blood bars represent the combat effectiveness of the two divisions, the blue bars represent the supplies of the two divisions.

No.11师团是全盛时期的50%，补给是40%，那么第六师团则是40%和70%。

There are factors of insufficient combat effectiveness and supplies, but then again, if you compare the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army, it is said that Li Yunlong's main regiments in the northwest of Shanxi have been defeated and lost their organizational system.

The troops gathered together were no more than 4-5K people, three-quarters of them were directly casualties, and the organizational system was not complete.

This is also the result of his decisive switch to mobile warfare.

The main force of the 129th Division also suffered heavy casualties. Basically, it can be said that 1 Eighth Route Army soldiers were killed.

When Shen Quan received the order from the headquarters, he was also a little confused, although in the end it was the 43rd regiment who fought and crippled the 43rd regiment.

But Shen Quan always felt a little unsatisfactory, but thinking about the tragic appearance of the brother army, Shen Quan was also a little fortunate, at least his own special second regiment did not suffer such heavy casualties.

After receiving the boss, he decisively followed the direction of the withdrawal of the 43rd regiment and contacted a part of the 115th division, preparing to transfer the headquarters to the northern Hebei area.

Having said that, Zhang Wei, after a short rest, the troops entered the marching state again.

Zhang Wei also knew that soldiers were not machines, but now that the situation was urgent, Zhang Wei spent 500 points to buy three fatigue reduction cards from the system mall.

Fatigue Reduction Card: Eliminate 20% of the accumulated fatigue of the soldiers, and slow down the increase in the fatigue level within 24 hours!

According to the system, although there is no earth-shattering effect for the current special column, it is still very helpful to solve the current dilemma of the marching state.

"Head, what is our goal this time?"

"The [-]th Division has penetrated deep into the hinterland of my base area, and his transportation and supply line has been stretched by nearly two hundred kilometers. I don't believe it, and can't catch him?"

If Xinkou was not in the hands of the Japanese, Zhang Wei would definitely go to Xinkou.

Because this is the only way for the Japanese army to go south, and it is also a place for large-scale transportation of materials.

Datong, Xinkou, and Taiyuan are almost on the same straight line.

"Da Biao, split the troops into two. You take one and I take one. There is only one purpose, and that is to find the right opportunity to destroy the Japanese army's transport troops. Remember, do what you can, even if it is to destroy some supplies. , nor can the Japanese troops on the front line get it!"

"Yes!"

In fact, Zhang Wei is not the only one with this idea.

Li Yunlong also ambushed at the corresponding ambush site with the remaining troops, waiting for the appearance of the Japanese logistics troops.

Because of the reputation of the Eighth Route Army in Northwest Shanxi, the Eighth Route Army is not short of soldiers, but even if it is replenished now, the combat effectiveness of these common people is not very good.

And in this situation, to deal with the standing divisions of the Japanese army, to be honest, even the eleventh divisions after the second army expansion.

They are tantamount to sending them to death directly.

On the other hand, Shan Baozong Wu was also very entangled, because he had already learned that the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army had been transferred, and now he had lost his attack target.

The 1th Division now has more than [-] combatable troops left, and four to five thousand wounded soldiers, who are placed in a field hospital less than [-] kilometers away from their front.

They don't know the next move, but now Neji Okamura hopes that they will cooperate with the Sixth Division to clean up the three counties in Northwest Shanxi.

Because of various problems in the process of order transmission, there are still some guerrilla units left spontaneously or forced to fight.

It also brought a lot of trouble to the Japanese army, so they simply wiped them out together.

Even Neiji Okamura believes that if the supply of supplies can keep up, he may simply use a security warfare strategy similar to that in North China in Northwest Shanxi.

The reason why it was not possible before is because there are too many mountainous areas in Shanxi.

Not to mention the muddy roads in this very place, and there is no way to pass trucks. It can even be said that if they attack, basically the Eighth Route Army does not even need to dig field fortifications, and can take advantage of the terrain and condescend.

Neiji Okamura's face was enough. The [-]th Division sent out a Japanese infantry brigade that had not yet been formed to cooperate with the Qing Dynasty. out.

Time passed by, and it took another half a day. Some of the main forces of the Eighth Route Army active in the Lingyang area have also broken out, and the next step is to go to the base area in southeastern Shanxi.

At this time, somewhere in the northwest of Shanxi, at the foot of Yunluo Mountain, Zhang Wei's headquarters was located here.

Three kilometers away is the ambush position prepared by Zhang Wei.

Because of the rut marks on the ground, Zhang Wei concluded that this was one of the devil's transportation routes, and after being destroyed, it would cause a lot of trouble for the devil.

"Regimental Commander, we have contacted the headquarters, they are on their way to northern Hebei! The loss of the troops this time is serious."

"Where is the arsenal? Is there anything wrong with the arsenal?"

The confidential officer shook his head: "No, political commissar, according to intelligence, there is no problem!"

Standing aside, Xing Zhiguo couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief: "It's fine, it's fine! Damn, as long as the arsenal is still there, these bastard devils will have to pay enough sooner or later."

After finishing speaking, Xing Zhiguo continued to ask: "What did the Special First Regiment say, did you encounter the enemy's transport team?"

Zhang Wei answered at this time: "That's right, but this transport team is somewhat beyond their capabilities. It has almost the strength of two transport brigades, and it also carries a lot of heavy weapons. I let them let it go. Give it to us!"

After Zhang Wei finished speaking, he added: "There are still about three hours left, and we will probably be here by now!"

"There was also a telegram from Lao Li. The troops in Northwest Shanxi were almost wiped out. The same devils were not feeling well. There were even wounded soldiers abandoned by devils on both sides of the road."

"His grandma, these little bastards have been fighting like this for almost a month, and I don't believe that they can still hold on?"

Zhang Wei rubbed his head tiredly, his physical fitness was exhausted like this, let alone ordinary Eighth Route Army soldiers and other Japanese soldiers.

Xing Zhiguo also nodded in agreement: "Zhang Wei, you should rest for a while, and I will direct the ambush later. Although the troops don't have many heavy weapons now, we still have enough ammunition!"

Zhang Wei nodded: "You must be careful when ambushing, and you must not let the devils escape. This is not eating meat or not eating meat. As long as we force back the [-]th Division, Northwest Shanxi will still be in our hands! "

Xing Zhiguo nodded resolutely. Zhang Wei was quite relieved about Xing Zhiguo's ability, and did not ask him to perform any special combat missions.

Zhang Wei lay on the camp bed, closed his eyes, and fell asleep within 5 minutes.

At the same time, almost one-third of the fighters were preparing for an ambush position, and the remaining two-thirds were lying in the woods or resting beside the rocks.

To be on the safe side, they couldn't be comfortable lying down. Did Japanese fighter planes fly over in the sky?

These veterans knew in their hearts that most of these were sent by the Japanese army to spy on them.

Once the Japanese army found out and smelled the smell, they were like hungry wild dogs, biting them to death and never letting go.

"Comrades, this time, we must go all out, even if we run out of ammunition, we must destroy the enemy."

"Leader take a break first, I will arrange the combat missions, the Spike Special Forces Brigade and the Black Tiger Special Forces Brigade will serve as reserve forces, ready to pursue, and make sure not to let a single devil escape."

"The third battalion and the fourth battalion are deployed according to the established ambush plan. How to group the ambush before, how to group now, don't play tricks, let alone make mistakes, this time still can't fail!"

"Yes! Commissar, we promise to complete the task!"

The soldiers looked exhausted, and at the same time they were eager to get more news about other places from Xing Zhiguo.

You must know that the special column has won a lot of victories now, and they have killed five or six thousand Japanese and puppet troops alone.

Xing Zhiguo smiled: "I know that you are all concerned about the people and leaders in the base area. I tell you that so far, none of the people has been killed or injured by the Japanese army, and the leaders of the base area and comrades in the arsenal are not in any danger."

"And the little soldiers newly recruited by our Shanxi Northwest Military Academy are not in danger."

The military academy in Northwest Shanxi was founded by Zhang Wei. It was a military academy established with the Independent Corps Officer Academy as its predecessor.

In fact, those who impart knowledge are also the military and political cadres of the Independent Regiment after Zhao Gang's report.

Zhang Wei used to set aside an hour every day to teach them, and now they can become qualified lecturers after they have accumulated enough experience.

To put it bluntly, why are they fighting?Not just for the children, for the nation, the country, a bright future.

If you are fighting for yourself, even for a unit like a special column, the casualty rate has exceeded 50%, and you are basically fighting with your head up.

Hearing these words from Xing Zhiguo's mouth, these cadres were all relieved, and they were relieved.

There were no casualties among the people, the chief was fine, and the children were fine, so their sacrifices and battles had value and affirmation.

"Go ahead, let's get ready. The regiment leader and I reckoned that after this battle, the Japanese army will have to come up with questions!"

Just as Xing Zhiguo finished speaking, the roar of Japanese fighter planes came from the sky again.

Two hours later, Zhang Wei opened his eyes, and the sound of guns in the distance told him that the battle had begun.

In the temporary command post, only the monk was left by his side.

"Monk, how is the situation?"

"Reporting to the head of the regiment, according to the reconnaissance situation, the number of Japanese troops should be around 2000. Most of them carry supplies, and there are not many weapons and ammunition."

Zhang Wei nodded, got up, put on his military cap, and strode out to win.
