Liang Jian: Commander, save some for me

Itakase Seishirō was silent for a moment, because what Yamamoto Ikki said did make sense, but the implementation of this plan was a bit too risky.

"Division Commander, you have tested the strength of my soldiers in the past few days. Their combat effectiveness is not much worse than that of the Northeast Army.
Therefore, the safety of the headquarters is guaranteed, and there is still a chance to kill Mu Jin, so why hesitate?" Yamamoto Ikki continued.

His soldiers have been tested by Itakune Seishirō and their combat effectiveness is much stronger than that of the soldiers of the Class A Division if a fight really breaks out between the two sides.

Yamamoto's special attack team was able to achieve a casualty ratio of one to three. The Northeastern Army was at most this strong. Even if they were stronger, he would not be afraid.

After all, the implementation of the plan involves not only the Yamamoto Special Attack Team, but also other troops assisting in the operation, so this plan is still very reliable.

Except for putting a few division commander-level officers at risk, everything else can be controlled.

"Even if I agree, it still depends on the commander's decision. If the commander disagrees, there is nothing I can do." Itagaki Seishirō said as if he was convinced.

"Don't worry, the commander will agree." Yamamoto Ikki said. He has already explained the interests involved. With a few division commanders, the Northeast Army can be annihilated. Although the commander will hesitate, he will eventually agree.

The two of them waited in the office without saying anything. After more than ten minutes, the phone on the table rang again.

Itaheng Seishirō subconsciously wanted to pick up the phone, but stopped.

"This is probably a call from the commander. You should answer it," said Itagaki Seishirō.

Yamamoto Kazuki did not hesitate and picked up the phone to answer it.

"Mr. Yamamoto, after my careful consideration, your plan is feasible!" came the voice of the Japanese commander.

"Commander, I will act according to this plan from now on!" Upon hearing this, Yamamoto Ikki immediately smiled and said.

"Well, but you have to ensure the safety of several division commanders. If the plan to annihilate this Northeast Army fails, these division commanders must not be allowed to get into trouble!" The Japanese commander warned in a serious tone.

It would be a good thing if we could successfully annihilate Mu Jin and his men, but if we cannot, as long as nothing happens to the few division commanders, the problem will not be too serious.

"Don't worry, Commander. I will never let anything happen to them! Even if I die!" Yamamoto Ikki responded with a serious expression.

"Well, then go ahead and do it. Give the phone to Mr. Banheng and I'll talk to him." said the Japanese commander.

"Hi! Division Commander, the commander asked you to answer the phone." Yamamoto Ikki handed the phone to Itakune Seishirō.

"Commander." Itakune Seishirō took the phone. Judging from what Yamamoto Ikki had just said, the commander really agreed with Yamamoto Ikki's risky action.

"I have agreed to this plan. When the other two divisions arrive, you must fully cooperate with Yamamoto's actions and try to wipe out this Northeast Army in one go. Do you understand?!" said the Japanese commander.

"I understand! However, the 6th Division and the mixed 25th Division are from other war zones. Will Commander Okamura agree to this plan?" Itakane Seishirō asked the question in his mind.

Although these two divisions were dispatched, they were actually just here to help. The specific situation still needs Commander Okamura's approval.

Otherwise, no matter how much they agree to implement the plan, they will be helpless if the two division commanders do not cooperate.

"Don't worry, I will convince Commander Okamura!" said the Japanese commander. Now their primary enemy is still the powerful Northeast Army.

If this force had not posed a serious threat to their layout, the higher-ups would not have agreed to send so many divisions to help.

Commander Okamura naturally understood the seriousness of the matter, so it was not difficult to convince the other party. If he couldn't convince him, he would let someone more powerful convince him.

To be honest, in order to deal with the Northeast Army, they successively dispatched several divisions, but still could not do anything to the enemy. It was really embarrassing.

"That's good." Itahune Seishirō nodded. Since there was no problem with the plan, he would be responsible for cooperating with Yamamoto Ikki.

"Mr. Yamamoto is right. This Northeast Army is not easy to deal with. We have only one chance, and we must seize it!" The Japanese commander agreed with what Yamamoto Ikki said.

If they fail to annihilate the enemy this time, they will face even more terrible revenge. Even if they gather their forces, the enemy will be able to run to other places and attack other troops.

By then, the imperial soldiers in other war zones will be in trouble. The key is that the soldiers in other war zones may not care about this unit, and the casualties will be even more serious.

"Don't worry, Commander. I understand!" Itagaki Seishirō responded.

"Then give the phone to Mr. Yamamoto. I want to tell him something." said the Japanese commander.

Itakase Seishirō also handed the phone to Yamamoto Ikki.

"Mr. Yamamoto, this time I am taking a big risk to get people to cooperate with you, so please don't let me down!" the Japanese commander warned.

He spent a lot of money to build the Yamamoto Special Attack Team, and everyone else was waiting to laugh at him. In this operation to annihilate the Northeastern Army, the Yamamoto Special Attack Team must succeed.

Even if he fails to completely annihilate the enemy, he needs to inflict severe damage to the enemy. Otherwise, he would have no business being the commander. There were already many soldiers who died in Taiyuan, and if he fails to annihilate the enemy this time, what qualifications does he have to stay in the position of commander?

"Hey! I will definitely fulfill my mission!" Yamamoto Ikki made the promise.

"Well, then go ahead and do it. The plan still has flaws. After it is perfected, send the specific combat plan to me for review. Do you understand?" said the Japanese commander. Now he could only believe that Yamamoto Ikki could kill the enemy.

"Okay, I'll send it to you as soon as I finalize the plan." Yamamoto Kazuki nodded.

"That's it for now." The Japanese commander hung up the phone.

"Division commander, I told you the commander would agree." Yamamoto Ikki put down the phone, looked at Itakune Seishiro with a smile on his face and said.

"Mr. Yamamoto, this plan is of great importance. You have to make it more rigorous." Instead of answering this question, Itagaki Seishirō said.

The two divisions transferred this time are from other war zones. If the two division commanders were to die in this way, not only would Yamamoto Ikki be held responsible, but even the commander would probably be in trouble.

Sometimes, he even doubted whether Yamamoto Ikki had bewitched the commander and made him choose to take such a big risk and agree to Yamamoto Ikki's plan.

"This is also a good opportunity, an opportunity to prove Yamamoto's special attack team! I will naturally not be careless." Yamamoto Ikki responded.

As long as this plan succeeds, he might be able to become a special instructor of the empire and train more soldiers.

This is an honor, and for this honor, he is willing to sacrifice his own life.

……Tianli Mountains, base.

After Li Jin received the news from Director Liu of the Arsenal, he rushed to the Arsenal as soon as possible.

"Captain, we have made several tear gas bombs, but no one has tried their power yet. Why don't I try it?!" Director Liu said quickly after seeing Li Jin.

They have been researching it for the past few days and just made it today, but they have not tested its power. After all, this is not a grenade that can be thrown outside to see the power of the explosion.

The specific situation requires a real person to test, so he called Li Jin and wanted to hear Li Jin's opinion.

"No, no, no, I'll do the test." Li Jin stopped him quickly after hearing this. How could he let Director Liu do the experiment? It would be bad if something bad happened.

"Captain, why don't I try it? You are the commander, what if something bad happens?" Chen Erdan on the side spoke up, and without waiting for Li Jin's consent, he ran to a not-so-big cave.

"Hey, you kid!" Before Li Jin could stop him, he saw Chen Erdan pulling off the pin of the tear gas.

Soon, tear gas began to emit billowing white smoke, and the pungent smell was overwhelming, even the eyes were attacked.

"Cough cough." Chen Erdan was choked and tears were streaming down his face. Less than two minutes later, he was choked and ran out of the cave.

He was crying and coughing non-stop, his eyes were red and bloodshot, and he looked very scary.

"Wash your face with water quickly." Li Jin took out a kettle and poured it on Chen Erdan's face to help relieve his pain.

It took a few minutes for Chen Erdan to recover.

"How do you feel?!" Li Jin asked with concern.

"Captain, I'm fine. This thing is quite powerful. Cough cough. It choked me to death. Even my eyes couldn't take it." Chen Erdan felt a little scared while speaking. If he hadn't run out earlier, he felt he would have choked to death in there.

"It seems that this thing is really powerful. Even Xiao Chen can't withstand it, let alone the Japanese. As long as we throw it at the Japanese blockhouse, unless they are equipped with gas masks, they will definitely be choked to death." Director Liu was also a little shocked.

Chen Erdan is a veteran who has followed Li Jin for a long time. Their endurance is obvious to all. If even a veteran like him can't stand it, the Japanese certainly can't stand it either.

"The tear gas is well made. The tear gas we use next time will be made according to this standard." Li Jin nodded with satisfaction. He did not expect that the tear gas was so powerful.

"I understand." Director Liu nodded and said, "Captain, I really admire you. You can think of everything, and the key is to make it! How did you come up with the idea of ​​making this thing?!"

"Nothing. I was just thinking, if ordinary troops wanted to take down the blockhouse, how could they use the smallest method to do so? After thinking about it, there is only one way, which is to force the Japanese out of the building..." Li Jin gave a brief explanation.

"I see." Director Liu nodded when he heard this. With tear gas in the future, it would be much easier to attack the Japanese blockhouses.

"Xiao Chen, you should take a rest these two days and don't get involved in the factory's affairs, do you understand?" Li Jin looked at Chen Erdan and reminded him.

Being choked by the tear gas for two minutes is quite harmful to the body, so I need to have a good rest.

"Okay." Chen Erdan nodded. He did not try to be stubborn. After all, his current condition was not suitable for continuing to work. If he forced himself to stay, he would make mistakes.

"Give me two of these tear gas canisters and I'll have someone send him to the brigade headquarters," said Li Jin.

"Okay." Director Liu did not hesitate and immediately handed the two tear gas canisters in his hand to Li Jin.

"Tear gas can be mass-produced now. Try to make as many as possible." Li Jin gave some instructions before leaving.

"No problem! We will complete the task." Director Liu made the promise.

The manufacture of this thing can help reduce casualties among the soldiers, so he naturally would not delay it. Instead, he would personally oversee it.

"Then I'll leave it to you." Li Jin then left the arsenal with the tear gas.

After returning to his residence, Li Jin asked someone to call Liu Changshun over.

"Captain, do you have any task for me?!" Liu Changshun asked excitedly as soon as he came in.

"Yes, I have a mission for you. These two are tear gas bombs. You will lead a squad of soldiers to escort the two tear gas bombs to the brigade headquarters. By the way, here are the blueprints. You must also hand them over to the chief." Li Jin looked at the blueprints and tear gas bombs on the table and assigned the mission.

"Yes! Captain, what is this tear gas?! Does it just make people cry?! Then what's the point of making it?!" Liu Changshun immediately took the task, but still asked curiously.

Tear gas sounds like it's not that powerful, but the regiment commander actually asked him to send it to the brigade headquarters, apparently wanting the arsenal at the brigade headquarters to also make tear gas.

"What do you know? Although tear gas bombs won't kill people directly, they can torture people, especially if they are dropped into the Japanese blockhouse. If the Japanese don't come out, they may even be choked to death in the blockhouse.
Don't you think this thing is powerful?!" Li Jin explained that in a blockhouse with little ventilation, as long as tear gas is dropped in, it will definitely force the Japanese inside out, and then it will not be difficult to annihilate them.

"What?! This sounds like it's more powerful than a grenade?!" Liu Changshun was shocked when he heard this.

"Do you think I will make something useless? Okay, let's take action quickly and don't waste any more time." Li Jin waved his hand and urged Liu Changshun to leave.

"Yes!" Liu Changshun took the tear gas and drawings and left.

After thinking for a while, Li Jin wrote down the contents of a telegram and stood up to hand it to the messenger at the door.

"Let the signalman send this telegram to the brigade headquarters." Li Jin instructed.

"Yes." The messenger took the paper and trotted away.

The content of the telegram was to tell the leader that there was a good thing for him, and to ask him to catch a few evil bandits to try out this surprise.

.........

386th Brigade, inside the meeting room.

The leader has been very busy these days. He has a lot of documents to review and he also has to pay close attention to the responses from intelligence personnel, for fear of missing any useful information.

"Commander, in recent times, the training progress of each regiment has been proceeding in an orderly manner, and their combat effectiveness is also increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye." The political commissar walked in and explained the matter.
