Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 1323 Taiyuan City (first update!)

Wang Ping hesitated for a moment and replied: "Old Cheng, to tell you the truth, I was the first to bring up the idea of ​​attacking Taiyuan!"

"I didn't expect the boss to be interested at that time. After studying it, I reported it to Yan'an. In the end, Yan'an also agreed, and I also involved you, Lao Cheng!"

Cheng Xiao replied with a face of enlightenment: "I just said who is so courageous, even dare to fight the idea of ​​Taiyuan City, so it is you!"

"If it was you, I wouldn't worry about it!"

"Without [-]% to [-]% certainty, you would never propose the idea of ​​attacking Taiyuan!"

"Old leader, how to fight, you give the order!"

Wang Ping shook his head and replied, "No rush...you tell me about the current situation of the Independent Division first, the more detailed the better!"

Cheng Xiao didn't hesitate, and blurted out: "The independent division now has two main brigades and an independent regiment, plus the artillery battalion, guard battalion, and directly under the division headquarters, the total strength is nearly 3000!"

"The independent regiment has the strongest combat effectiveness. It is a strengthened regiment with a total strength of 2000. It is basically composed of veterans who have been injured on the battlefield, accounting for [-]%. It is the fist force of the independent division!"

"The two main brigades respectively have three infantry regiments, a mountain artillery company, a medium mortar company, and a guard company...the total strength looks like 500 people!"

"The infantry regiment has three main battalions, a mortar company, an infantry artillery platoon, and a guard company, with a total strength of about 300 people!"

"The infantry platoon is equipped with a light machine gun, the infantry company is equipped with two small cannons, which are grenade launchers equipped by the devils, and the infantry battalion is equipped with three heavy machine guns..."

"The brigade's mountain artillery company is equipped with six mountain artillery pieces, and the medium-sized mortar company is equipped with nine mortars. They are all produced by our arsenal!"

"The artillery battalion of the division is equipped with 12 field cannons and 6 large-caliber mountain cannons that you snatched from the devils, the old commander in person!"

There is still a difference between the situation of the independent division reported by the headquarters and the situation reported by the division commander Cheng Xiao, which is obviously more real.

As soon as Cheng Xiao finished speaking, Wang Ping laughed.

According to the current strength of the independent division, plus the brigade directly under the military region and the new regiment, Wang Ping is more confident in taking Taiyuan City.

"Old Cheng, the idea of ​​the headquarters is that Taiyuan must be caught off guard, and the Japanese army in Taiyuan City will be caught off guard!"

"In order to achieve this goal, the headquarters will launch two local counterattacks in other base areas to attract the attention of the Japanese army in North China! Then we will take the opportunity to launch an attack and take Taiyuan City in the shortest possible time!"

"Taiyuan City is large, and the city defenses are very strong, and the number is huge."

"By storming and occupying one by one, it will take several days to take down the fortifications outside Taiyuan City. Moreover, the devils still have planes, and our casualties will definitely be very heavy!"

"So I decided to take a few steps together and try to minimize the casualties and time of attacking Taiyuan!"

"Knowing yourself and the enemy is the only way to win a hundred battles. My first step is to figure out Taiyuan City. The information reported to us by the headquarters is too little. I decided to let you bring the special warfare brigade, the team directly under the new regiment, and the head of the headquarters to bring The special warfare squadron entered Taiyuan City in batches, investigated the situation, and then lurked in Taiyuan City!"

"The total strength of the three troops exceeds 500, and they are all elites. I will give them a month to figure out all the fortifications and troop deployment of the Japanese and puppet troops in Taiyuan!"

No one could have imagined that the Eighth Route Army would attack Taiyuan City.

Although this is the headquarters of the Japanese Army in Shanxi, the security of the entire Taiyuan City is not as strict as imagined.

Of course, this is also thanks to the large number of Japanese in Taiyuan City.

Although they are all businessmen who come to China to do business, in fact they all have a certain military background.

On the surface, they do business, secretly search for the wealth of the Chinese people in various ways, and then send this wealth back to the country to manufacture more guns and ammunition and continue to invade China in turn.

The last thing these Japanese businessmen and chaebols want to see is that they are heavily guarded for the frontline war!
In this case, they will lose a lot of opportunities to make money every day.

In order not to offend these businessmen with deep backgrounds in the country, unless it is an extremely urgent situation.Otherwise, the gates of Taiyuan City will always be open, and there will be a steady stream of caravans and convoys entering and leaving Taiyuan City every day...

More than 500 special forces members easily sneaked into Taiyuan City.

"Captain, the fortifications outside Taiyuan City are all heavily guarded, we can't get close at all, we can only observe from a distance with binoculars!" A squadron leader looked at Li Wen and reported embarrassedly.

"Of course not!" Li Wen retorted, frowning.

"What the commander wants is not only the location of those firepower points and bunkers, but also the specific strength and firepower of those firepower points, and whether there are hidden firepower points!"

"These things are invisible to long-distance observation!"

Another squadron leader frowned and replied: "This is too difficult!"

"Unless you go directly into the firepower point and the bunker, it's impossible to figure it out so clearly!"

Disappointment flashed across the faces of several people. Although they were all carefully selected elites of the Eighth Route Army, they could accomplish many tasks that other Eighth Route Army could not accomplish.But they are not gods, and it is absolutely impossible to enter the heavily guarded bunkers and firepower points under the noses of the Japanese and puppet troops.

At this moment, Li Wen spoke!

"There is another way!"

"The headquarters of the Japanese and puppet army must have a layout map of Taiyuan city defense!"

"The commanders of the Japanese and puppet troops must know how many troops and firepower points there are in each telegram. Otherwise, after a battle broke out, they would have no way to command the battle!"

A squadron leader's eyes lit up and he replied, "That's right...we can steal the city defense map!"

Another squadron leader poured cold water on it and said, "The Japanese and puppet army headquarters are more heavily guarded than those bunkers, how do you get in!"

"The Japanese and puppet troops are not fools. If the city defense map is lost, they will definitely adjust their deployment. At that time, the map we have worked so hard to steal will become a piece of waste paper!"

"If there is a way to quietly enter the headquarters of the Japanese puppet army and copy out the city defense map!" The last squadron leader suggested.

"Impossible!" The two squadron leaders denied in unison.

Li Wen suddenly said, "Is it not impossible?"

"The headquarters of the Japanese are heavily guarded, and we cannot enter. But we must have a way to enter the headquarters of the puppet army!"

"Isn't there a puppet brigade in the city? Let's go to their brigade headquarters. They must have a city defense map!"

"However, such an important document as the city defense map is definitely not accessible to ordinary people. Even if you enter their brigade headquarters, if you find the wrong person, you will be caught blind!"

"Well, let's go directly to their brigade commander!"

"I'll give you two days to find out the situation of the commander of the Puppet Army Garrison Brigade in Taiyuan City. The more detailed the better!"
