I'm killing enemies with my sword and exploding equipment

Chapter 891 We have to give that old devil Okamura a hard beating!
Northeast of Qubei County, in the temporary command post of the Special Forces Regiment.

After Yang Yuanshan and Deputy Regiment Commander Zhan Haishan discussed how to support the Fourth Battalion, they immediately arranged for someone to pass on the message.

After finishing this most important task, he took the kettle, drank water, and asked the guard Zhang Xiaohe to help him get some food.

Then he sat on a rock and asked Zhan Haishan:
"Haishan, besides the situation in the Fourth Battalion, is there any news from other areas?"

"have.

The superior called back and said that they had arranged for the New 2nd Regiment to attack the Japanese Jinyang Airport.

In addition, the brigade headquarters in Taiyue Base will also take some actions to put pressure on the Japanese. "

"OK.

With this fight, this action is no less severe than the previous great raid!

It’s exciting! "

Yang Yuanshan nodded excitedly.

The simultaneous actions in northwestern Shanxi and the Taiyue base area meant that the entire Shanxi area was almost at war.

I guess Kazuo Iwamatsu must be very worried.

"Haishan, send a telegram to your superiors immediately to inquire about the situation of the Japanese in Jizhong.

See if they show any signs of gathering their troops and preparing to move westward.

If the Japanese invaders move westward, we will have to step up our vigilance."

Yang Yuanshan arranged again.

"I just asked, and Political Commissar Zhao called back and said that it's not available yet.

The First and Eighth Divisions of the Liaodong Army of the Japanese devils were still frantically slaughtering our comrades and fellow villagers in the Hebei-Central base area.

The entire Jizhong base area has suffered huge damage, and it may take half a year or a year to recover. "

Zhan Haishan said this, his face full of anger.

Upon hearing this, Yang Yuanshan secretly admired the other party for being reliable and proactive in communicating with all parties and obtaining intelligence without him having to explain himself.

As his anger grew, he could not help but curse:

“Son of a bitch!
It seems like we haven’t hurt that old devil Okamura yet! "

"Yes, I guess the Japanese must be thinking: first completely clear out Jizhong and consolidate this area as a rear base for attacking our Shanxi area.

Then calmly dispatch a large army to crush us with all our might and completely annihilate all our troops in the entire Jin area!"

"good.

The old devil Okamura suffered such a great loss at our hands that he has learned a little bit of wisdom. He now knows that if we rashly send troops over without full preparation, we will just be delivering food to us!

But I want to see if he can hold on if Jinyang City is lost!"

As he said this, Yang Yuanshan swung his fist fiercely, determined to beat the Japanese devils thoroughly!
"Haha, that's right!

I see that he will definitely not be able to continue to be the commander of the Jibei Front Army!"

Zhan Haishan also felt his blood boiling in his chest.

The battles fought by this special forces regiment were simply too exciting.

If we can really capture Jinyang City, it would be earth-shattering!
……

Yang Yuanshan and Zhan Haishan chatted and laughed, exchanging various information they knew about each other.

After Zhang Xiaohe brought food to Yang Yuanshan, he quickly filled his stomach and then sent someone to call political commissar Zhou Xianpei.

Arrangement Road:
"Old Zhou, the several battalions that engaged the Japanese today suffered many casualties.

You must take people with you now to help the various battalions rescue and transfer the wounded.

All the wounded should be sent to the field hospital as soon as possible.

In addition, send someone to notify Zhao Li in Qixia Town and ask him to select 1000 of the most diligently trained soldiers from the remaining troops. I want to replenish the battle losses in each battalion.

This battle cannot be won in a short time, and each battalion must maintain its combat effectiveness."

"Okay! Captain, I'll do it right away!"

Zhou Xianpei agreed, turned around and left.

The reason why our army regards establishing a base as the most important thing wherever it arrives is because only with a stable base can we have sustained combat capabilities.

Just like now, Qubei County is only a few dozen miles away from Qixia Town, and the special forces regiment is almost fighting at its doorstep.

The wounded can be withdrawn at any time and replaced with new soldiers, making it easy to fight a war of attrition with the Japanese.

As for those new recruits, their combat effectiveness can be rapidly improved after a few days of training on the battlefield.

This will make the overall combat effectiveness of the special forces regiment even stronger.

——In particular, Yang Yuanshan had no shortage of weapons and equipment. On the other hand, the Japanese had fewer and fewer personnel, weapons and equipment, and ammunition.

When one is gaining strength while the other is losing strength, how can we not fail?
I estimate that in just a few days, the Japanese commanders will begin to doubt their lives.

Both suffered heavy casualties, but their own men became fewer and fewer, while the enemy's men did not decrease at all!
……

Let’s talk about Qubei County.

Lieutenant Colonel Takigawa Takeshi, commander of the 214rd Battalion of the Japanese 214th Regiment, had no idea that the main force of his th Regiment had basically been destroyed at the foot of Xigang Mountain.

Even the two senior officers, the wing commander and the wing chief of staff, returned to their hometowns.

As soon as he heard that reinforcements had arrived outside the city, he personally ran to the southern city wall of Qubei County and observed the battle situation with a telescope.

However, what he imagined: the reinforcements would easily wipe out the Eighth Route Army and enter Qubei County unimpeded, did not happen.

Instead, we saw our own reinforcements struggling under the enemy's intensive artillery bombardment and tank blockade!

Just now I saw such a huge fire at the foot of Xigang Mountain in the southeast, and heard such earth-shaking explosions. It was obvious that the opponent had used a big move.

This made him feel very bad.

I couldn't help but wonder: Why are the Eighth Route Army so powerful?
Even a division of reinforcements from my Locust Army couldn't defeat it.

This is simply unreasonable!
……

Just as he was holding the telescope with a worried look on his face, a telegraph operator came running over:

"Your Excellency the Captain, a telegram from the Division Commander!"

Takeshi Takigawa was shocked and hurriedly took the telegram to take a look. He saw that the content asked him to organize troops, break out of the west gate, and support the main force of the division into the city. He frowned immediately.

Now all the artillery pieces in his hands have been destroyed, and there are not many heavy machine guns left. How easy is it to break through the defense of an enemy regiment?

But military orders were as heavy as a mountain, and he had no way of disobeying them.

He could only quickly send someone to call several squadron leaders under his command to a meeting at his brigade headquarters.

……

Soon, several Japanese officers with sad and serious faces came hurriedly.

Upon hearing that the reinforcements from the division headquarters had arrived and that they were needed to escort them into the city, the squadron leaders became excited.

He immediately shouted that he would lead his army to charge out of the city.

They have been hiding in Qubei County today and have been bombarded all day long. They are so depressed.

Seeing that the morale was good, Takeshi Takigawa felt a little relieved.

He immediately ordered: Captain Saburo Yanagawa of the Second Squadron to lead the troops out of the city.

Lieutenant Haruhiko Ishihara of the 3rd Squadron was responsible for leading the team to provide cover on the west wall.

The gap in the city defense left after the withdrawal of troops from these two squadrons was filled by Kawada Miken's First Battalion in cooperation with the Locust Association.

That’s right, there was also a battalion in Qubei County, with hundreds of poorly equipped and weak combat effectiveness traitors.

It was originally reorganized from a local security group.

Takeshi Takigawa did not trust them at all and only let them be responsible for the city's security.

Now that I am short of troops, I can only pick out the tallest ones from the short ones and use them as is.

……

After the discussion, the Japanese took action immediately.

More than 20 minutes later, the two squadrons of Japanese soldiers gathered at the west gate of Qubei County.

Squadron leaders Saburo Yanagawa and Haruhiko Ishihara walked up the city wall and met Takeshi Takigawa, who was hiding behind the battlements and observing the battle situation outside the city with a telescope.

Now the gate tower at the city gate has been destroyed by the artillery of the special forces regiment.

Takeshi Takigawa could only hide behind the ruins carefully and observe the outside world, which looked a little funny.

"Captain, shall we leave the city now?

It sounds like the battle outside the city is very fierce."

Yanagawa Saburo and the other man asked.

Takigawa Takeshi looked unhappy, shook his head, and frowned:
"The Eighth Route Army's defense is very solid, and the division commander's reinforcements have not yet approached. We need to wait for the right opportunity!
Mr. Yanagawa, you lead your troops to rest inside the city gate and wait for the order to leave the city.

Ishihara-kun, call your men to the city to defend it!"

"Hi!"
