People are shining their swords, secretly helping the Iron Triangle in Northwest Shanxi

Li Yunlong is very shrewd, and Chen Ziyun obviously wants to fight a war of annihilation here in Hanoi County.

If Zhang Dabiao's battalion was taken away at this time, he would not be able to get any loot.

On the contrary, if Zhang Dabiao's battalion is left here, he will be able to obtain a certain amount of loot.

Therefore, Li Yunlong did not take away the first battalion, but took Liang Guoping's third field regiment back to Huaiqing City for defense.

After Li Yunlong left, Chen Ziyun began to make deployments.

The guard regiment, the mountain artillery regiment, the first field supplementary regiment, and Zhang Dabiao's first battalion launched an attack on Hanoi County with all their strength.

Various ministries continued to launch attacks, with the mission of killing Japanese and puppet troops.

As for Lin Zhiqiang's second field supplementary regiment, it was deployed by Chen Ziyun in the Shennong Mountain area for defense.

In the following time, Chen Ziyun continued to attack Hanoi County, constantly killing and injuring the Japanese and puppet cavalry units here.

The Yamamoto special forces are also coming from Zhongtiao Mountain one after another. They are preparing to station in Shennong Mountain and launch combat operations with this place as the core.

It's just that the little devil didn't know that there was already a field battle here to supplement the defense of the second regiment, and the troops from both sides started fighting to a certain extent.

Chen Ziyun directly dispatched eight 105MM Jin-orogenic guns to rush over to strengthen the defense of Shennong Mountain.

Yamamoto Kazuki commanded the troops to conduct several attacks, but failed to make any progress, and was forced to give up the combat attack on Shennong Mountain.

Within a few days, Yamamoto Kazuki began to come near Hanoi County, trying to directly establish contact with the Japanese and puppet cavalry units in the city.

However, Chen Ziyun commanded the Guard Regiment Cavalry Battalion and other troops to attack repeatedly and repelled them time and time again.

The two sides got into a fight, and both sides suffered casualties.

By July [-], the Japanese and puppet cavalry still had no way to break out.

Although the Japanese and puppet troops organized troops to forcefully break through, they were stubbornly blocked every time. Their breakout troops only suffered heavy casualties.

As for the Yamamoto special forces, they continued to fight, but there was no way to break through the containment troops sent by Chen Ziyun.

No matter where they went, cavalry battalions and other troops always followed them and kept a certain distance from them.

The two sides fought fierce battles several times, but the Yamamoto special forces could not defeat the cavalry battalion.

At three o'clock in the afternoon on the [-]th, the special garrison stationed at Mantou Mountain immediately abandoned Mantou Mountain.

More than 3000 little Japs quickly came to Shennong Mountain under the command of Xiaodao Xinxing.

These Japanese troops began to launch a fierce attack on Shennong Mountain in an attempt to seize control of Shennong Mountain.

Yamamoto's special agent team adjusted their strategy. They stationed outside Shennong Mountain to support the special garrison's operations.

Chen Ziyun mobilized troops for support, but was blocked by the special forces and was unable to advance to support the Shennong Mountain operation.

For a time, the troops from both sides were engaged in a fierce battle here in Shennong Mountain. Lin Zhiqiang's field reinforcements for the second regiment gradually became overwhelmed.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Lin Zhiqiang sent Chen Ziyun a series of messages asking for help, hoping that Chen Ziyun could send reinforcements to help.

Chen Ziyun has deployed the cavalry battalion and Zhang Dabiao's first battalion to support them, but they were intercepted and restrained by the special agent team commanded by Yamamoto Kazuki and could not get closer.

After receiving reports from various ministries, Chen Ziyun finally understood that the little devil was going to mobilize his main force to return to Shennong Mountain to support the Hanoi County cavalry breakout.

"Commander Chen, the division headquarters has sent a message."

"The commander received simultaneous messages from the commanders of the first theater and the second theater."

"Chief Jiang and Chief Yan want us to stop fighting in the northern Henan area and allow the remnants of the Japanese and puppet cavalry in Hanoi County to break out."

"They analyzed that if we completely annihilated the Japanese and puppet troops here, the Japanese army might launch a crazy retaliation attack."

"Currently, all the ministries are resting and recuperating and are not suitable for large-scale operations. Therefore, it is more appropriate to let them break out to avoid larger-scale operations."

"Master and counselor want to hear what you mean and ask you to call them back quickly!"

At nine o'clock in the evening, an officer came to Chen Ziyun to report.

Chen Ziyun took the message and checked it, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

The Japanese and puppet cavalry units in Hanoi County were beaten down and there were not many troops left. If Chen Ziyun was given a few days, they could be completely eaten up.

But at this time, Chu Yunfei sent such a message. Although it was ostensibly asking what Chen Ziyun meant, Chen Ziyun knew what Chu Yunfei was thinking.

Yan Laoxi and Jiang Mingsan sent telegrams at the same time. Chu Yunfei was under great pressure and he must be willing to obey orders.

After all, if the two theater commanders are offended at the same time, the 201st Division will definitely have a difficult time in the future.

Moreover, what was said in the message was reasonable. If the Japanese and puppet troops were completely annihilated, this would be a severe slap in the face of Neji Okamura.

Okamura Neji will definitely launch a crazy revenge. Judging from the current situation of various ministries, they have almost no ability to continue fighting.

But Chen Ziyun was still somewhat reluctant to let go of the Japanese and puppet cavalry troops.

Chen Ziyun fell into deep thought for a while. After hesitating for a long time, he arranged for Sun Yu to supplement the first regiment in the field to conduct a large-scale detour to support the Shennong Mountain battle.

The Guard Regiment and Mountain Artillery Regiment maintained suppressive attacks on Hanoi County and tried to annihilate the Japanese and puppet troops here as much as possible.

Of course, even if the various units have not suffered much casualties since the battle, their physical energy consumption has been very serious.

Even the guard battalions and other troops that Chen Ziyun personally trained and trained are very tired and their combat effectiveness has been significantly weakened.

After fighting for several days, Chen Ziyun also saw the advantages and disadvantages of Yamamoto's special agent team.

This unit is not simple. Yamamoto Kazuki has obviously improved his ability to a great extent after being defeated again and again.

"Commander Chen, there is a message from detachment leader Li. They are currently fully defending the Japanese troops in the Makino City area, and they are temporarily unable to mobilize any troops."

"Detachment Captain Li reported that the Japanese troops in Makino City have been replaced again, and the strength of the Japs in northern Henan has increased significantly."

"He means that if the Japanese and puppet cavalry in Hanoi County cannot be annihilated, then they will be driven away."

"After all, they are here and have a great impact on our combat defense."

At around nine o'clock, Li Yunlong also sent a message.

Chen Ziyun stood in front of the map with a serious expression on his face.

He was vaguely aware that the war situation in northern Henan had changed significantly.

Time is passing, and the fierce fighting in the Shennong Mountain area continues.

Kojima Shinko's special garrison continued its fierce attack and successively carried out combat attacks on Lin Zhiqiang's field supplementary second regiment.

Fierce gunfire continued, and Lin Zhiqiang's regiment was under great pressure. Almost all the peripheral positions were lost, and even some core positions were in danger.

The Yamamoto special forces adopted flexible defensive tactics and tried their best to block the advance of the cavalry battalion and the first battalion.

Kazuki Yamamoto's commanding ability was not weak, and Sun Yu supplemented the second regiment in the field to conduct a large-scale detour, but he did not escape the observation of the Japs' reconnaissance troops.

While fully blocking the cavalry battalion and the first battalion, the Yamamoto special agent team could also calmly dispatch troops to intercept.

At two o'clock in the morning on July 21, the Japanese and puppet cavalry troops in Hanoi County once again launched a breakthrough.

Hundreds of puppet cavalry broke out, but they were beaten.

After suffering more than 100 casualties, the puppet cavalry troops withdrew directly.However, it can be seen that this breakout consumes a lot of physical energy, and the ammunition consumption is also not small.

Otherwise, with the joint operation of the guard battalion, machine gun battalion, combat artillery battalion and mountain artillery regiment, these hundreds of cavalry can completely annihilate them.

However, after continuing to fight until now, these troops have obviously been too exhausted, and their combat effectiveness has been greatly reduced.

It was at this time that two colonels appeared at the headquarters set up by Chen Ziyun on the front line.

One of the colonels is Fang Ligong, and the other colonel is a female officer.

Now Chen Ziyun is continuously commanding the troops to fight and has not rested for several nights.

He was unshaven, and there were a lot of coagulated blood and dirt on his uniform, and a strange smell could be smelled from a distance.

After all, Chen Ziyun directs operations and will not hide in the rear. He will go to the front line at any time and even participate in the battle himself.

"Shenzuo, why are you here?" Chen Ziyun said directly after seeing Fang Ligong.

Chen Ziyun was not surprised at all that Fang Ligong appeared here. Chen Ziyun also knew why he came.

"Commander Chen." Fang Ligong saluted Chen Ziyun respectfully.

After all, Chen Ziyun's position in the 201st Division was second only to Chu Yunfei.

Chen Ziyun returned the greeting and glanced at the female officer. She looked familiar, as if she had seen her before somewhere.

However, Chen Ziyun was also very tired as he was wasting his time and not having a good rest for many days in a row.

He just glanced at the female officer and didn't take her seriously at all.

"Commander Chen, you should have received the message from the division headquarters. There has been no reply from your side. The division commander was worried about you, so he asked me to come here."

"After several days of fierce fighting, we have achieved amazing results, and Commander Chen can be said to have made the greatest contribution."

"The commander has reported it to the First and Second War Zone Commander's Department to ask for credit for you."

"If Commander Chen trusts me, you can leave this place to me to direct the aftermath, and you can return to Zhongtiao Mountain to rest."

Fang Ligong looked at Chen Ziyun in front of him, smiled and said.

When Chen Ziyun heard this, his face turned gloomy, and the anger in his heart was almost completely out of control.

He looked towards Fang Ligong coldly, his eyes red, like an enraged beast.

Fang Ligong was startled and hurriedly shifted his gaze, not daring to look at Chen Ziyun at all.

"We have been fighting hard for many days, and the encirclement and annihilation campaign has reached a critical stage. If we give up the attack now, all our previous efforts will be wasted."

"We can let go of the Japanese and puppet troops, or we can keep all the troops, but how can we face our brothers who died in battle."

"They died trying to annihilate this Japanese and puppet army. Now if we let this Japanese and puppet army go, wouldn't they be devastated?"

"Chief of Staff Fang, if we don't annihilate this Japanese and puppet army, will the Japanese army let us go and not retaliate against us?"

Chen Ziyun roared in a low voice. He clenched his hands into fists and tried his best to control his emotions.

At this moment, Chen Ziyun could be said to be determined to kill the enemy but unable to save his life.

"Commander Chen, the situation on the battlefield has changed dramatically..." Fang Ligong explained softly.

But when Chen Ziyun looked over with a fierce look, he was so frightened that he immediately shut his mouth and did not dare to continue talking.

Fang Ligong has served as a staff officer for a long time and has always assisted in commanding from the rear.

He knew very well that the emotions of these officers who were fighting fiercely on the battlefield were completely out of control.

Even in the red-eye state, even one of your own people will be accidentally injured.

Looking at Chen Ziyun's red eyes, Fang Ligong was a little afraid.

"Commander Chen, the 110th Division has replaced the 21st Division and has been stationed in the northern Henan region."

"The 110th Division is a special division of the Japanese army. It was formed in 38 from the reserve officers and soldiers of the [-]th Division."

"After he entered Hebei Province, he served as a security garrison for a long time. He has rich experience in mopping up operations."

"At the end of 39, various departments of the Japanese army began to reorganize, and the fourth division was transformed into the third division."

"The 110th Division was reorganized at the beginning of 41, but it was not transformed into a three-armed division. Instead, it was strengthened."

"According to various intelligence, the 110th Division is currently being adjusted according to the elite field division, and its cavalry brigade has been expanded into a cavalry regiment."

"The field artillery wing has also been expanded and equipped with a large number of 105 modified field guns and Type [-] [-]MM howitzers."

At this time, the female officer following Fang Ligong said calmly.

The organization of the Xiaoguizi Division is that each division has two brigades, and each brigade has two infantry regiments, directly under which are engineers, baggage, cavalry, and artillery regiments.

However, at the end of 39, they abolished the brigade establishment and replaced it with three infantry regiments under the division. At the same time, the cavalry regiment was also transformed into a search regiment.

A large number of elite permanent divisions and ad hoc divisions began to be reorganized.

However, the 110th Division of the North China Front Army, as a special division, was not included in the reorganization sequence.

On the contrary, they were strengthened at the beginning of this year. Currently, the division is one of the few divisions in the Japanese army that maintains a four-regiment organization!
Of course, the main reason is that the North China Front does not have a very strong combat division.

Chu Yunfei, Chen Ziyun, Li Yunlong and other troops successively achieved victory, causing heavy losses to the little Japanese.

The base camp strengthens the combat strength of the 110th Division and also allows the North China Front to have a unit that can serve as a strategic reserve.

At this time, as the battle in the northern Henan region continued, the 110th Division replaced the 21st Division and stationed in the northern Henan region.

The 110th Division currently has 108 Brigade and 133 Brigade.

Directly under the division are the cavalry regiment, the engineer regiment, the field artillery regiment, and the heavy baggage regiment.

There are also non-combat units such as communication teams, health teams, and field hospitals.

Its total strength is about 5000, of course including non-combatants.

Its four infantry regiments have 6000 troops!

This force is not weak and has very sophisticated weapons and equipment.

When Chen Ziyun heard these words, he looked at the map with a solemn expression on his face!
"Chief of Staff Fang, I will stop fighting and let go of the Japanese and puppet cavalry in Hanoi County."

"I will handle the aftermath. Please go back and tell the teacher that I will carry out the orders of the superior officer."

Chen Ziyun took a deep breath and said with a serious expression.

"Director Ouyang, let's go back to the division headquarters first."

"Commander Chen, in that case, let's take our leave first."

"If necessary, you can contact the division headquarters at any time."

Fang Ligong nodded hurriedly and left Chen Ziyun's headquarters with the female officer. (End of chapter)
