The Rise of the Great Powers in the War of Resistance

After receiving the telegram, Zhang Yunfei immediately sent a report to the cavalry regiment maneuvering outside, asking the cavalry regiment to pay attention to the little devils who escaped from the city. Zhang Yunfei himself doesn't know, it largely depends on luck.

A few hours later, the night gradually faded, and the white belly of the east was exposed. Zhang Yunfei stayed up all night, but he still looked energetic. Although Master Liu, who was next to him, took a nap in the headquarters in the middle of the night, his eyesight You can still see the lack of sleep, in order to refresh yourself, Mr. Liu took out his own cigarette, lit one, and smoked it beautifully.Before smoking, he signaled to Zhang Yunfei if he wanted one too, but Zhang Yunfei, who was a special soldier, did not smoke.

Mr. Liu finished his cigarette slowly, and the sky became brighter. Zhang Yunfei and Mr. Liu walked out of the headquarters, holding binoculars and observing the Taiyuan City in front of them again.

The current Taiyuan City, because it has just been baptized by artillery fire, seems to be full of ruins, and black smoke is rising from several places in the city, but the gunshots in the city have decreased a lot, and the little devils in the city have basically been wiped out. There are still little devils left here and there, but there are not many of them.

Seeing that the battle was basically over, Zhang Yunfei immediately ordered the cooking team to prepare a hot breakfast and send it to the soldiers in the city. Now the soldiers hadn't slept all night and hadn't eaten for more than ten hours. [

Zhang Yunfei wanted the soldiers to eat as soon as possible, because according to the report from the forward observation post, the first brigade of the Little Devils Infantry who went north from Pingyao to support Taiyuan was less than two hours away from here.

Shouyang, the position of the Jinsui army.

The fierce battle has been going on all night, and the [-] Jinsui troops have gathered together and fought fiercely with more than [-] people from the [-]th Division of the little devil all night.

Relying on the advantage of location and numbers, the Jinsui army successfully blocked more than [-] little devils. The little devils paid the price of thousands of casualties before advancing one or two kilometers.

On the hillsides on both sides where the Jinsui Army is located, there are large pits with a diameter of several meters everywhere. These were bombed by the shells fired by the little devil's mountain artillery unit. A large part of the Jinsui Army died in the small area. Under the bombardment of Devil shells, but fortunately, the position is still in the hands of the Jinsui army.

At the foot of the hillside, there were a large number of corpses of little devils lying here and there. They could not be seen at night, but now it was dawn, and they could be seen clearly. Many of these little devils were killed by the grenades thrown from the hillside. Terrible.

High on the hillside, the two commanders of the Jinsui Army were also full of dignity. Both sides suffered heavy casualties in a night of fierce fighting. This group of little devils seemed to have received a death order, and they were eager to break through the Jinsui Army's defense line. The dead launched attacks again and again.

At this time, a major staff officer of the Jinsui Army quickly walked up to the two army commanders with a folder, and reported in a loud voice: "Commander Yan sent a telegram that Zhang Yunfei's troops have broken through Taiyuan City, and now there are remnants of the enemy in Taiyuan City It has been basically wiped out."

"Okay, this Zhang Yunfei is really amazing. He recovered Taiyuan City in one night." One of the commanders of the Jinsui Army said with emotion.

"In addition, Commander Yan also ordered us to send a troop to Taiyuan to receive equipment from the little devil." The major staff officer said again.

The Tenth Division headquarters of the little devil on the opposite side.

The head of the little devil's division, Isoya Rensuke, also just received an urgent telegram from North China. The telegram said that Taiyuan City has been occupied by the Eighth Route Army. Yoshio Kozuka led hundreds of people from the headquarters to evacuate Taiyuan City and is currently heading south. Prepare to join the [-]st Brigade.

Neiji Okamura, commander of the North China Front Army, also said in the telegram that he had ordered the First Brigade of the Infantry to march eastward, preparing to cross the vast Taihang Mountains and return to North China.The Tenth Division, together with the No.16 Division that was about to arrive, broke through the Jinsui Army's defense line within eight hours at all costs, marched westward to meet the First Infantry Brigade, and then returned to North China together.

The Tenth Regiment, which did not take advantage of any advantage, began to organize troops to attack again under the command of the division commander Rensuke Isoya. Not long after, the No.16 Division, the little devil who came later, joined the Tenth Division , [-] to [-] little devils launched a frenzied attack on the Jinsui Army positions.

Several senior commanders of the Jinsui Army watching the battle at the headquarters on the mountain saw the little devil start to attack like crazy, and they also looked awe-inspiring. A division commander of the Jinsui Army shouted anxiously: "Sir, we still let go Let's open the way, the brothers will suffer too many casualties if this continues."

The two commanders of the Jinsui Army, one of them had a sullen face and said nothing, while the other immediately said sharply: "Shut up, it is Commander Yan who ordered me to stop the reinforcements of the little devils, we must be here Stop the little devil for 48 hours."

Seeing the stern face of his army commander, the division commander had no choice but to sigh, returned to the headquarters, picked up the phone to notify his troops, and stopped the little devil from advancing at all costs.

Eight o'clock in the morning, the Eighth Route Army headquarters.

Zhang Yunfei and Commander Liu were waiting for the news from the front in the headquarters. The little devil's first infantry brigade had not arrived yet, and the forward observation post responsible for monitoring the movements of the little devil's first infantry brigade had not yet received news.

While everyone was waiting anxiously, the latest news finally came from the front. The Little Devil's [-]st Infantry Brigade had changed its marching direction. Instead of coming towards Taiyuan, it changed direction and went east.

No, the little devil is about to run away.

Zhang Yunfei hurriedly walked to the map of the headquarters, took a pencil and began to draw on the map, drawing out the possible escape route of the little devil.

Seeing the route drawn by Zhang Yunfei, Teacher Liu immediately said: "The little devil seems to be planning to cross the Taihang Mountains on foot. According to the route drawn by my brother, the little devil will first enter the defense area of ​​the independent regiment Xie Baoguo."

"Oh, that's great. Can Xie Baoguo's independent regiment stop the little devil for three hours? We can catch up with the little devil in just three hours."

"Okay, I'll send an order to the independent regiment right away." After speaking, Commander Liu walked to the communication room of the command headquarters. Several radio stations in the communication room were busy, and there were ticking sounds everywhere.

Since the last time Zhang Yunfei led Xie Baoguo and led the independent regiment to ambush Xiangyue Qingsi on Zhengtai Road, the current independent regiment can be said to be strong and strong. Relying on the weapons and ammunition seized last time, the number of troops has grown to three to four thousand. And each battalion is also equipped with an enviable radio station.

Seeing Commander Liu go to the communication room in person, Zhang Yunfei also immediately said to a correspondent next to him: "Hurry up and send a report to the cavalry regiment, stop searching for Yoshio Kozuka, assemble the troops immediately, and chase after the little devil who fled to the east." Brigade."

Zhang Yunfei believes that as long as the first brigade of the little devil's sub-infantry is eliminated, there will no longer be a large group of little devils near Taiyuan, and Yoshio Kozuka will be found sooner or later. The [-]st Brigade of the Little Devils Infantry.
