The General Headquarters of the Little Japanese Dispatch Army hopes that the base camp will approve the dispatch of an elite permanent division to the North China battlefield to enhance the strength of the North China Front.

But now the little devils are completely trapped in the quagmire of the war. They are fighting on two fronts and are under great pressure.

Some garrison divisions had to be transferred to the Southern Army to serve as the main combat force. Under such circumstances, there were no elite divisions to be transferred.

The 52nd Division and the 53rd Division, which were organized as elite standing divisions, were temporarily seconded to the North China Front, which was their maximum limit.

The base camp did not approve it, but the headquarters of the dispatched army did not give up and repeatedly sent messages to explain the situation.

By the end of April, after careful consideration, the base camp specially deployed two regiments to strengthen the North China Front's combat capabilities.

Of course, these two regiments are temporarily seconded to the North China Front. After the end of the operation, they will return to their establishment at the end of the year.

For a time, Ejima Torao's 41st Regiment and Furukawa Masao's 47th Regiment began to be transferred from outside Seki.

These two regiments once belonged to the Fifth Division and the Sixth Division respectively.

However, as the Little Devils abolished the brigade establishment, the previous four-regiment division was reorganized into a three-regiment establishment.

The 41st Regiment was transferred from the 47th Division, and the th Regiment was transferred from the th Regiment.

Both regiments joined other units and were under the command of the Kwantung Army.

After careful consideration, the base camp felt that the North China Front also needed to clear out the armed forces in the occupied areas.

Although they have troops from the 52nd Division and the 53rd Division, they still lack an elite field unit that can determine victory or defeat.

In order to ensure the success of the North China Front's combat plan, the base camp specially issued an order for the Edao Regiment and Furukawa Regiment to go to the North China battlefield to assist in the operation.

After receiving the transfer order, the two regiments immediately began operations and immediately took the train to Ji Province.

The Kwantung Army also fully cooperated. Not only did they readily agree, but they also made a series of additions to the two regiments.

After all, the 18th Regiment under the Third Division was also transferred to the Kwantung Army.

As a result, the 18th Regiment was intercepted on the Lubei battlefield and was eventually completely annihilated.

The Kwantung Army has completely learned this lesson, and this time it will supplement the Edao Regiment and Furukawa Regiment to enhance their combat capabilities.

In early May, these two regiments had already arrived at the battlefield in Hebei Province.

The two captains of the Colonel Corps also went to the front army headquarters to receive personal training from Neji Okamura.

According to the little devil's operational concept, next they will focus on the southeastern Shanxi and northern Henan areas.

Their intention was to gradually clear out the bases near the 201st Division and other units, annihilate the nearby units, and thus isolate these units.

Originally, Okamura Neiji planned to use the 52nd Division and the 53rd Division to perform combat missions.

Even if these two divisions are used, Okamura Neji is a little worried.

After all, the 53rd Division had not been successful in previous operations and had suffered a certain amount of casualties.

Although the next battle will not be against the 201st Division and other units, the North China Front Army Headquarters is still worried that these two divisions will not be able to complete their combat missions.

Now that two elite field regiments are coming to help, the North China Front is full of confidence in the next battle.

Beginning on May 5, the Little Japanese North China Front began a comprehensive operation.

They drew up detailed combat plans and dispatched intelligence personnel to collect accurate intelligence.

Jiangdao Regiment and Furukawa Regiment have gathered in the northern Henan area and strengthened to the 52nd Division.

At the same time, the 52nd Division in Luzhou City in southeastern Shanxi and the 41st Division in southern Hebei Province successively deployed troops to the northern Henan region.

Next, the Japanese prepared to launch a surprise attack in the northern Henan region to defeat the troops west of the Qin River in the northern Henan region. For this purpose, the Japanese elite advance team set out in advance, they disguised themselves, and with the cooperation of traitors, secretly sneaked into the area west of the Qin River and waited for orders.

As soon as the main force of the Japs launches an attack, the advancing team will immediately cooperate to completely eliminate the troops in the northern Henan region.

Currently, here in the northern Henan region, there is the third brigade under the jurisdiction of the first theater. This brigade is also under the command of the Zhongtiao Mountain Guerrilla Command.

The Third Brigade was stationed in Hanoi County and other towns for defense, and was mainly responsible for contacting the troops of the First Theater Zone on the south bank of the Yellow River.

The combat materials distributed by the First War Zone to the troops under the Zhongtiao Mountain Guerrilla Command are almost all transferred from here.

The area where the Third Brigade is stationed is very important, and the Japs have long wanted to seize control of it.

In addition to Liang Ruxian's third brigade, there is also the northern Henan detachment just formed by Kong Jie.

One part of the Henan North Detachment is active in the area west of Qinhe River, and the other part is gradually developing base areas deeper into the areas occupied by the Japs.

At present, many villages in northern Henan have established militia groups, and some important towns have also formed guerrilla groups.

The threat these troops pose to the Japs is self-evident. If they continue to develop, they will pose a greater threat to the Japs.

Okamura Neiji also received the report through the intelligence agency, so he focused his operations on the northern Henan region.

In this battle, Okamura Neji used the absolute main force.

Troops secretly transferred from the 52nd Division and the 41st Division served as garrison, and the 53rd Division was mobilized in full force.

At the same time, the Edao Regiment and the Furukawa Regiment will also arrive at the combat area secretly. These two regiments are specially designed to attack possible reinforcements.

For a time, the little Japanese troops began to mobilize on a large scale.

Of course, some troops are mobilized openly, while others are mobilized secretly.

As for the North China Front's special operations, they are also in progress.

They spent a lot of money to purchase all the supplies in the Zhongtiao Mountain area, especially grain, and the little devils spent a lot of money to buy them.

At this point, Chen Ziyun quickly realized something was wrong.

"Food prices continue to rise, and the prices of related items have also increased a lot."

"Many items here are sold directly to the little devil."

"The little devil's purpose is very obvious. He wants to reduce our supplies and thus trap us to death."

"Now we have a lot of troops in each department, and their move is very fatal to us."

"There won't be much of a problem in the short term, but in the long run, the consequences will be disastrous."

"The hundreds of thousands of troops in the first theater of war were defeated here before, and it has something to do with this."

On the evening of May 10th, Ouyang He found Chen Ziyun and said with a solemn expression on his face.

After Chen Ziyun noticed something was wrong, he immediately found Ouyang He and asked her to investigate.

Ouyang He quickly grasped the relevant information and explained it to Chen Ziyun.

"Where is the Little Japanese Army? It is said that their troops are being mobilized. Is there anything unusual?"

Chen Ziyun looked at Ouyang He and continued to ask.

The long-term battle made Chen Ziyun very vigilant, and he gradually realized that something was wrong. (End of chapter)
