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

Yan Laoxi is not a simple person. If the Japanese army attacks the Eighth Route Army in normal times, he hopes that the little devil can achieve significant results.

But now the situation is different. The Japanese army has the intention to threaten the Jinsui Army in western Shanxi. Naturally, Yan Laoxi does not want the Eighth Route Army to suffer too many casualties.

After all, if the Eighth Route Army did not contain the numerous Japs troops, the Jinsui Army would directly face the main force of the Japs.

Yan Laoxi is still very clear about the strength of the Jinsui Army. He does not think that his Jinsui Army has the ability to resist the Japanese army.

Therefore, fighting here in Taiyue Mountain, he hoped that the 201st Division could rush to support to ensure that Commander Chen's troops could firmly contain the Japanese army in Taiyue Mountain.

As for Jiang Mingsan in the first theater, his idea is even simpler.

Jiang Mingsan still knew the truth behind the death of lips and teeth. If the troops in Taiyue Mountain were defeated.

Then all the pressure will come to Zhongtiao Mountain. Once Zhongtiao Mountain is lost, all the pressure will be borne by the troops in the first theater.

In order to protect the bridgehead of Zhongtiao Mountain, he also hoped that the 201st Division could assist in the battle.

Messages from the two war zone commanders were sent, and Chu Yunfei immediately contacted Chen Ziyun and asked Chen Ziyun to prepare.

In order to strengthen the combat strength of Chen Ziyun's Zhongtiaoshan Guerrilla Command, the cavalry regiments directly controlled by the division began to be dispatched to Yangcheng.

Zhang Wu commanded the cavalry regiment troops and began to maneuver toward Yangcheng overnight to ensure that they could participate in the battle at any time.

The little devil's tactical confusion still had a certain effect.

The first theater, the second theater and other command organs have basically determined that the Japanese First Army is about to launch a combat attack on Taiyue Mountain.

But here in Yangcheng, Chen Ziyun made detailed notes on the map based on the information passed from various parties.

He looked at the map with a thoughtful expression on his face.

"The 36th Division, the 37th Division, the 59th Division, and the 69th Division are mobilized. These four divisions can attack Taiyue Mountain from multiple aspects."

"But isn't it too obvious that the little devils are mobilizing on such a large scale? What they have to deal with is Commander Chen's troops."

"These troops are good at guerrilla warfare, and they are in the mountainous areas with such a big fanfare. Are you not afraid of these troops being transferred in advance?"

"Maybe this time the little devil said he wanted to attack the Taihang Mountains, then he really wants to attack the Taihang Mountains."

"As the saying goes, only dogs that don't bark will bite. The 41st Division of Luzhou City in southeastern Shanxi and the 110th Division of Northern Henan did not move at all."

"The less they move here, the more it means there is something weird."

Chen Ziyun pointed at the map, with a serious expression on his face, and spoke directly.

Ouyang He, the director of the Communications Department, stood aside. She was responsible for assisting Chen Ziyun in combating the Japanese bacterial weapons.

Until now, Ouyang He has been reporting Japanese military actions to Chen Ziyun through various channels.

Chen Ziyun also kept making judgments, even if Yan Laoxi and Jiang Mingsan sent telegrams, feeling that the Japs were going to attack Mount Taiyue.

But he felt that the focus of the little devil's battle this time must be here in the Taihang Mountains.

When Ouyang He heard Chen Ziyun's analysis, his face showed a thoughtful expression.

But in the end she didn't say anything, but stood aside and remained silent.

Chen Ziyun looked at the map and after pondering for a while, he called for Monk Wei and Xie Yunxia.

By now the two guerrilla groups have been organized. Of course, their weapons and equipment cannot be compared with other field groups.

Because they do not have suitable weapons and equipment, their troops currently use a lot of Japanese weapons.

"Captain Wei, Commander Xie, please assemble your troops quickly. I will contact the New Second Regiment of the Independent Detachment immediately."

"You follow the command of Commander Ding Wei of the New Second Regiment and launch guerrilla activities in the northeast of Yangcheng and gradually move towards the Luzhou City area."

"I will contact Commander Ding Wei directly in the future and assign you combat missions."

Chen Ziyun found two guerrilla group leaders, and he began to issue combat orders.

"Yes, Commander Chen." The two regiment leaders immediately saluted and agreed without any hesitation.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Ziyun picked up the microphone and directly contacted Sun Yu and Lin Zhiqiang, the leaders of the two field supplementary groups.

Chen Ziyun asked them to take Yangcheng as the core, gradually extend northward, and station themselves in defensive positions to prepare for battle.

Li Yang's mountain artillery regiment also began to enter a state of combat readiness.

After issuing a series of orders, Chen Ziyun contacted Li Yunlong via radio.

Ask him to contact Commander Chen in Taiyue Mountain and Ding Wei of the New Second Regiment to convey his combat deployment.

Chen Ziyun arranged for the troops to conduct extended defense towards the north, so that they could directly communicate with the Taiyue Mountain troops.

In this way, the troops of both sides can cooperate to block the transfer of the little devils in the towns along the Tianjin-Puzhou Railway towards the southeast of Shanxi.

Ding Weixin's Second Regiment, two guerrilla regiments launched guerrilla attacks towards the Luzhou City area in southeastern Shanxi. Naturally, they had to prepare for the battle in the Taihang Mountains.

As for the Zhangwu Cavalry Regiment that was transferred, it was controlled by Chen Ziyun and directly served as the reserve team.

"Commander Chen's combat deployment is smooth and flawless. No wonder Chief Yan said you are the number one leader in the Shanxi-Sui Army."

"With this deployment, we can rush to support operations in Taiyue Mountain and Taihang Mountain at any time, and can also threaten Luzhou City."

"Commander Chen deserves the most credit for the 201st Division's current status."

"It is said that Chief Jiang said in private that you have the same demeanor as he did back then. If you are willing, he would like you to go directly to the first combat zone."

"Not to mention division commander, even if you are given a military command, Commander Jiang will feel wronged by you."

Ouyang He was always by the side. After listening to Chen Ziyun's deployment, she couldn't help but say with emotion.

After all, she was born in the attendant's room, and most of those who can enter the attendant's room are capable.

For a period of time here, as long as you study humbly, your abilities in all aspects will definitely be greatly improved.

Ouyang He obviously gained a lot during his time in the attendant's room.

"Hehehe..." Chen Ziyun smiled and said nothing more.

Jiang Mingsan showed strong command ability when he fought on a large scale in the Central Plains.

It is good at mobile combat and attack combat.

But later on, Jiang Mingsan's mind was obviously not here anymore.

"Do you still think the Japs will attack the Taihang Mountains?" Ouyang He asked directly.

"The Japanese army will definitely attack the Taihang Mountains, and the Japanese army commanding this battle will not be simple."

"Maybe they are going to make a big fuss this time, Director Ouyang, I won't be polite to you anymore."

"I have to hurry up and take a rest. It won't be long before the battle begins."

Chen Ziyun yawned and said directly.

Ouyang He glanced at Chen Ziyun. She didn't say anything and walked out directly.

Time is passing, at three o'clock in the morning on February 22nd.The Japanese First Army assembled troops and began to bombard Taiyue Mountain. Dozens of mountain artillery and field artillery bombarded Taiyue Mountain.

At the same time, thousands of troops began to attack Taiyue Mountain, and for a while, deafening gunfire began to sound in Taiyue Mountain.

But if you look closely, you can see that the little devil has loud thunder and light rain.

Although they gathered troops to attack Taiyue Mountain, this was just a feint attack, and their main force was not dispatched at all.

However, here in Taihang Mountain, Yamamoto Kazuki's special agent team took the lead in attacking.

More than 4000 troops, under the command of Colonel Yamamoto Kazuki, had already set off from Luzhou City and entered the Taihang Mountain area.

Yamamoto Kazuki, who was wearing combat uniform, looked at the time, and when it was four o'clock in the morning, he began to issue combat orders.

At this time, the special agent unit is strong and strong, and all aspects of its weapons and equipment have been greatly improved.

Unlike other little Japanese troops, the special agent team has used a lot of captured weapons and equipment after repeated failures.

For example, Czech semi-automatic rifle, MG13 general machine gun, Brand 60MM, 82MM mortar.

In terms of communications, its three assault brigades are equipped with high-power radios and can communicate with the wing headquarters at any time.

Each squadron is also equipped with low-power radios so that it can communicate with the group headquarters.

Even when necessary, Kazuki Yamamoto can directly contact a certain squadron for combat.

"The troops were dispatched according to the plan. The first brigade advanced quickly, the second brigade protected the security on both sides, and the third brigade served as a reserve force."

"The direct-affiliated troops are under the command of the wing headquarters and follow the wing headquarters to carry out operations. Each unit keeps a distance and maintains contact at the same time."

"Gentlemen, the combat army headquarters and front army headquarters are paying special attention to this battle. We must win."

"Otherwise, our special agent wing will become a laughing stock and completely lose the trust of the Army Headquarters and Front Army Headquarters."

Yamamoto Kazuki had a serious expression on his face as he decisively issued the order.

This battle was personally commanded by Miyazaki, deputy chief of staff of the North China Front, on Monday, and assisted by Hanatani, chief of staff of the First Army.

Miyazaki's combat deployment on Monday is to let the special agent wing serve as the main attack.

He adopted completely different tactics, and the special agent team advanced toward the capital along CNR, Shicheng, and Hezhang.

Yamamoto Kazuki's troops want to seize these villages and towns in the shortest possible time, thereby penetrating the entire Taihang Mountains area.

The capital here already belongs to the northern Henan region. If the special agent team attacks here, the entire northern and southern regions of the Taihang Mountains will be cut off.

In this case, the little Japanese troops can carry out a staged sweep of the Taihang Mountains!
Of course, when the special agent wing is conducting operations, the 41st Division troops and the 133rd Brigade troops are also ready.

If the Taihang Mountain troops launch a combat operation, these two troops will definitely be mobilized to launch encirclement and annihilation operations.

Of course, the strength of the special agent team is not weak. It is almost impossible for the same number of troops to pose a threat to them.

Even if we deploy twice as many troops, it will be impossible to encircle and annihilate them.

Therefore, as long as the special agent unit is not attacked by the main force in Taihang Mountain, the peripheral troops will definitely not be dispatched.

They will wait until the special agent wing completes the penetration operation before dispatching troops again, but if the main force surrounds and annihilates the special agent wing, they will definitely attack immediately.

After Kazuki Yamamoto issued the combat order, the special agent team launched combat operations.

By this time, the agent wing was very strong, with each squadron having three assault teams.

Each squad has a grenade detachment, a baggage detachment, and three assault detachments.

Each assault team has 13 people, equipped with six submachine guns, two semi-automatic rifles, two sniper rifles, and one light machine gun!

With such weapons and equipment, their combat effectiveness can be imagined.

As they launched combat operations in the Taihang Mountains, the little devils advanced so fast that almost no troops could intercept them.

For a time, gunfire sounded continuously in the Taihang Mountain area.

The little devils relied on sophisticated weapons and equipment to advance all the way.

As time passed, the sky gradually became brighter.

At this time, the Little Devils Agent Team has advanced to the area west of Shicheng. If they capture Shicheng, they will have walked half the distance.

"The Little Japanese troops are very strong, with more than 4000 people, well-equipped weapons and equipment, and a certain number of automatic and semi-automatic weapons."

"Based on previous battles, they should be the elite Yamamoto Regiment directly under the Japanese First Army."

"This Yamamoto Regiment is not simple. After the Sakata Regiment and other units were annihilated, they have always been the trump card of the First Army."

"In several battles, they have been responsible for the main combat tasks, and their combat effectiveness is very powerful."

"Before here in Yangcheng, they were able to escape unscathed despite a large number of artillery strikes commanded by Chen Ziyun."

"Such a force, even two or three main regiments, may not be able to deal with them."

"Even if Li Yunlong's independent detachment is transferred here, his teeth may break."

Here at the Taihang Mountain headquarters, as the battle started, discussions began here at the 129th Division headquarters.

Fortunately, Master Liu was well prepared and was not fooled at all. Otherwise, they would be even more passive now.

"Chen Ziyun's analysis is correct. Their target is here in the Taihang Mountains."

"The little devil was very cunning this time and almost caught us off guard."

"Contact the divisional troops of the First Army and ask them to gather the main force in Shicheng for defense and intercept their attack first."

Here at the division headquarters of the 129th Division, deployments were quickly made.

Orders began to be conveyed one after another, and the troops began to mobilize.

As the battle started here in Taihang Mountain, the battle in the Taiyue Mountain area immediately stopped, and the little Japanese participating troops returned immediately.

The 36th Division and the 37th Division began to mobilize troops and immediately launched vigilance, paying special attention to the situation in Zhongtiao Mountain, Yangcheng and other areas.

The Imperial Association Army troops stationed here in Jincheng are in full combat mode and are ready to launch combat operations at any time.

The main force of the 41st Division is going to join the battle, but other troops are also ready to hold on.

At around one o'clock in the afternoon, Li Yunlong from the independent detachment arrived in Yangcheng with a solemn face.

"Brother Ziyun, you are right, the little Japanese launched a combat operation against the Taihang Mountains."

"And they dispatched the elite Yamamoto United Team. Up to now, the Yamamoto United Team has reached Shicheng."

"The artillery regiments of our independent detachment were all urgently deployed to fight in the Taihang Mountains."

"Brother Ziyun, I'm coming this time..."

After Li Yunlong saw Chen Ziyun, he said with a solemn expression on his face. (End of chapter)
