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

As time passed, the sky became brighter. Early in the morning, the little devils began to dispatch aviation units to assist in the battle.

It was already February [-]th, and the February morning was still chilly.

In the Taiyue Mountain area, Commander Chen stood in front of the map with a solemn expression on his face.

"Commander, the little devil has made great progress in the Taihang Mountains and has achieved some results one after another."

"Teachers and commanders have been forced to move division headquarters, and the overall losses of each division are also increasing."

"If the fight continues at this level, I'm afraid we won't be able to defend the Taihang Mountains."

"The boss sent a message asking us to find a way to coordinate the operation."

"Do you think we should continue to mobilize troops to enhance the combat strength here in southeastern Shanxi?"

Wang Zhengwei came to Commander Chen and said with a solemn expression on his face.

At this time, the main force of the 41st Division of the Little Devils, the 110rd Brigade under the 133th Division, was conducting operations one after another.

They assembled an absolutely superior force and launched continuous combat strikes. The troops here in the Taihang Mountains suffered certain casualties and many areas were lost.

Fortunately, this is a battle in a mountainous area, and each unit has a large space to move.

Otherwise, if the Japanese army is so powerful in other areas, it will definitely suffer heavy losses.

At present, various ministries in the Taihang Mountain area mainly adopt guerrilla warfare to deal with the attacks of the Japs.

"Fortunately, Chen Ziyun commanded the troops to seize the Japanese bacterial weapons. Otherwise, the consequences would be disastrous."

"If the little devil uses these weapons in the Taihang Mountains, our troops will no longer be able to stay here."

"This Chen Ziyun still has a strong commanding ability. Let him be the one to command the battle. You are right."

"But there is indeed danger here in Taihang Mountain. We have to find a way to deal with it."

Commander Chen couldn't help but frown and said with a slightly embarrassed expression.

At this time, it seems that the Taiyue Mountain regional troops commanded by Commander Chen can be mobilized for combat at will.

Although there are no Japanese troops nearby to attack and contain them, the overall situation is still very disadvantageous for them.

To their north is the 59th Division stationed in eastern Shanxi; to their west is the 69th Division stationed in Pingyang City.

Although these two divisions are Category C divisions, they can also enter the occupied area and effectively contain Commander Chen's troops.

The most important point is that here in the Jiangcheng area, there are troops from the 37th Division.

The troops of the 37th Division have been quickly assembled, and they can go north to attack at any time.

As long as Commander Chen directs the troops to advance towards southeastern Shanxi, these three divisions can mobilize troops at any time and quickly enter the Taiyue Mountain area.

If Taiyue Mountain was captured by the Japs, the consequences would be disastrous.

So until now, Commander Chen has no way to mobilize the troops and can only place all his hopes on Chen Ziyun.

"Commander, we cannot dispatch too many troops to attack, but there is still no problem in dispatching more than 1000 troops."

"And Deputy Commander Liu of the 772nd Regiment has already passed on the news. The troops he brought there are now armed to the teeth."

"Eight artillery pieces, eight heavy machine guns, more than 20 light machine guns, and more than 20 grenade launchers, all of which are Type [-] rifles."

"Even some of our main groups don't have such a weapon configuration. Chen Ziyun is really generous."

"I think it would be better to send the main force of the 772nd Regiment there. This can effectively enhance their combat strength in southeastern Shanxi."

Wang Zhengwei thought for a while and then spoke directly.

"Hehehe, you and I thought of going together, so let's do this."

"Once again, 772 troops were transferred from the 1000nd Regiment, and all were assigned to Deputy Commander Liu to command the operations."

"Also contact Li Yunlong and Ding Wei and ask them all to obey Chen Ziyun's command."

"I see, this battle in southeastern Shanxi can only be won by the command of Chen Ziyun."

"Although Chen Ziyun is an artilleryman, his commanding skills are not bad at all."

Commander Chen thought for a while and agreed directly.

The 772nd Regiment once again mobilized 1000 troops and rushed towards Luzhou City for reinforcements.

At this time, Chen Ziyun had already reunited with Li Yunlong.

"Brother Ziyun, you came at the wrong time."

"The little devils are constantly bombing us, and our troops are almost unable to assemble."

"Had we not discovered the air attack quickly and dispersed in time to avoid it, we would have paid heavy losses now."

"Brother Ziyun, our Commander Chen has already sent a message, asking us to fully obey your command."

"Just tell us how to fight next. We will fight how you say."

After Li Yunlong saw Chen Ziyun, he couldn't help but joked.

The Japanese air force was still carrying out bombings, and deafening explosions continued to sound.

Chen Ziyun and Li Yunlong understood the situation, and he began to mark it on the map.

At present, Ding Wei has commanded various ministries to launch a fierce attack on Luzhou City, but Luzhou City is an important town in the southeast of Shanxi after all.

The 41st Division headquarters is also here. The Japanese army has been defending this place for a long time, so they have built many semi-permanent fortifications.

Even though they have eight 105MM mountain guns, it is still difficult to break through these fortifications.

Chen Ziyun also immediately contacted Ding Wei and reported the situation of Yamamoto Kazuki's troops.

As for how Ding Wei responded, Chen Ziyun did not interfere too much.

Ding Wei is also capable. There will definitely be no problem in ensuring that the entire army will not be severely damaged.

"Brother Yunlong, something is wrong with this situation. Your troops have not been exposed."

"Normally, the Japs Air Force's bombing should also focus on bombing the New Second Regiment and other units in Luzhou City."

"It's a little abnormal how they grabbed hold of your troops and started bombing them with all their strength."

Chen Ziyun had a puzzled expression on his face, but he thought about what Li Yunlong had just said, that the special operations wing had previously dispatched troops for investigation.

In order to avoid being exposed, the new regiment went into hiding.

However, Xie Yunxia's second guerrilla regiment was discovered by the Japs and was attacked, suffering some casualties.

Chen Ziyun gradually realized that the special operations regiments in Laoxiong Mountain and other highlands were obviously going to attack.

It was at this time that a staff member came to Chen Ziyun and reported a confidential message.

Here in Jincheng, Xu Chengpu's troops began to gather, and they were about to attack.

Xu Chengpu did not dare to hide anything from Chen Ziyun, and immediately dispatched personnel to report.

After receiving this news, Chen Ziyun was absolutely sure that the special operations wing was going to launch a combat strike north of Jincheng and south of Laoxiong Mountain.

The Little Devil Air Force focused on bombing, obviously hoping to cooperate with the special operations wing to quickly annihilate the New Regiment and other units.

"Although it is impossible for the puppet army to take action, the extra defense is still worthwhile." "Xie Yunxia's second guerrilla regiment defends the Jincheng puppet army, and the new regiment is assigned to the artillery unit to fight."

"The Special Operations Wing previously sent troops to assist Anze City and suffered a certain amount of losses."

"The most they can dispatch now is about three thousand troops."

"The new regiment has 4000 men, equipped with ten 150MM mortars and two 100MM howitzers. It still has an advantage."

"And Duan Peng's combat platoon can also mobilize 40 people to participate in the battle, which is enough for a little devil to drink a pot."

"Brother Yunlong, how are you doing? Do you want to fight or not?"

Chen Ziyun looked at Li Yunlong beside him and asked directly.

"Hehehe, our new group has been holding back for so long, of course we are going to have a fight."

"Special Operations Wing, the elite Japs. I've wanted to fight them for a long time."

"Brother Ziyun, you don't know that we, Lao Li, like elites who beat up little devils."

"In my opinion, any elite unit has two shoulders carrying one head. Who is more powerful than the other?"

"Fighting depends on courage. When encountering a narrow road, the brave one wins!"

Li Yunlong rubbed his hands together excitedly. He couldn't wait to prepare for combat operations.

Chen Ziyun nodded, and the two began to divide the work and prepare.

The new regiment, the second guerrilla regiment, and the artillery units began to mobilize.

At about ten o'clock in the morning, the Little Japanese Air Force stopped bombing and strafing and began to evacuate the battlefield.

At the same time, the special operations regiment deployed in Laoxiong Mountain, Jinquan Mountain and other highlands began to attack.

This time they directly deployed six infantry squadrons, two machine gun squadrons, and four artillery squadrons with more than 2000 troops to go out for combat.

Here in the highlands, they left hundreds of people behind for defense.

Of course, among these hundreds of people, there are some non-combatants.

Captain Nobuhiro Kojima personally commanded the operation this time. He had already received Monday's operation order from Miyazaki.

Miyazaki on Monday asked the special operations wing to attack southward, annihilate the southern troops, and then quickly return to support Luzhou City.

The Special Operations Wing has also conducted reconnaissance before. They analyzed that the enemy forces south of Laoxiong Mountain and other positions only had a maximum of 4000 to [-] troops.

With such a large number of troops, Kojima Nobuhiro is confident that he will dispatch the main force to annihilate them in a short time.

What's more, the aviation units have been dispatched one after another for bombing raids, targeting suspected positions one after another.

If the opponent does not have perfect position fortifications, the special operations wing will naturally be able to easily deal with them.

The main force of the special operations wing, more than 2000 troops, began to set off in a mighty manner under the command of Nobuhiro Kojima.

At this time in Luzhou City, Ding Wei had already adjusted his strategy.

They directly ambushed Yamamoto Kazuki's troops, while Wei Monk's First Guerrilla Regiment was to contain Luzhou City.

Up to this point in the battle, the New Second Regiment and the troops commanded by Deputy Commander Liu are fighting with all their might.

Eight mountain guns cooperated, and the first battalion of the special agent wing commanded by Yamamoto Kazuki and two special operations squadrons were hit.

Even though they were elite troops, they still suffered casualties when faced with an ambush of more than 5000 troops.

At this time, the Japanese troops began to defend with all their strength, and Yamamoto Kazuki also hurriedly contacted Miyazaki in Luzhou City on Monday.

"Captain, these little devils are really extraordinary. They actually held their position and blocked our attack."

"And they gradually began to take the initiative in combat. When we fired, we were no match for them."

"How about we launch a strong attack, rush over directly, and engage them in hand-to-hand combat."

A cadre came to Ding Wei and suggested directly.

Ding Wei raised the telescope to check, with a solemn expression on his face.

After pondering for a while, Ding Wei did not hesitate and began to issue a retreat order.

There is still a main force in this force commanded by Kazuki Yamamoto, and their heavy weapons still exist.

Although the troops commanded by Ding Wei have a strength advantage, their combat effectiveness lags behind the Japanese army.

If they continue to carry out combat attacks, even if they can deal with Kazuki Yamamoto's troops, they themselves will suffer heavy losses.

The result of killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred to himself was not what Ding Wei wanted, so he arranged for the troops to evacuate in time.

The troops of the New Second Regiment and the 772nd Regiment dispersed and evacuated. After Yamamoto Kazuki thought for a while, he was worried that he would encounter other ambushes and gave up the pursuit.

"Go to Luzhou City quickly, return to Luzhou City temporarily, and then make plans."

"The number of enemy troops here exceeds our imagination, and they are completely obeying Chen Ziyun's command."

"Only Chen Ziyun can be so cunning and difficult to deal with."

Yamamoto Kazuki looked cold and gave the order directly.

The Japanese troops began to quickly withdraw towards Luzhou City. At this time, the troops commanded by Yamamoto Kazuki had already suffered heavy casualties.

They set out from Luzhou City before, but there were nearly 2000 troops, but now there are only 1000 troops who have withdrawn to Luzhou City.

In the truck, many wounded people were transported, and there were also a large number of corpses of little devils.

Yamamoto Kazuki's face was gloomy. For him, this was a defeat!
As the Japanese troops withdrew to Luzhou City, the first guerrilla regiment of Wei Monk also began to disperse and move.

At eleven o'clock, 772 troops from the 1000nd Regiment arrived on the battlefield.

At this time, the strength of the troops commanded by Ding Wei increased again.

After Ding Wei learned about the battlefield situation, he started to generate electricity and contacted Chen Ziyun and proposed the next battle plan.

Chen Ziyun has now begun to command the troops and directly launched a fierce battle with the special operations wing.

The New Regiment and the Special Operations Regiment directly fought a surprise attack, and Li Yunlong commanded the New Regiment to actively carry out operations.

Chen Ziyun even personally commanded the artillery unit, firing ten 150MM mortars and two 100MM howitzers one after another.

These twelve large-caliber artillery pieces suppressed the four artillery squadrons of the special operations wing.

These four artillery squadrons have eight 75MM mountain guns, four Type 37 infantry guns, and six [-]MM rapid-fire guns.

Under the command of Chen Ziyun, the artillery unit was like a god, and the artillery shells landed accurately on the Little Japanese artillery unit.

The Little Japanese artillery force suffered heavy losses before they even made any response.

Three of the eight mountain cannons were destroyed on the spot, and two others lost their combat capabilities due to damage to their parts.

At this time, the three mountain cannons were assembled in a panic, and they took cover directly, unable to carry out shelling.

On the contrary, the four infantry guns and six rapid-fire guns were concealed very quickly without any casualties.

But these artillery pieces could not fire, and they were worried that they would be hit again.

Kojima Nobuki hurriedly ordered the machine gun squadron to seize favorable terrain, and the four infantry squadrons dispersed immediately. (End of chapter)
