Chen Zhengguo: "Captain, don't worry, all the Japanese officers in the Second Division Command did not escape. They were all killed without leaving a single one alive."

"This is a big catch. There are many high-ranking officers, but we have wiped them all out."

Su Zheng: "Very good... Then it seems that we have completely wiped out the Second Division!"

"Oh, by the way, go get me the heads of these two old devils, Yoshimoto Sadaichi and Okazaki Saburo, and send them to Ping'an County to intimidate the Ping'an County defenders."

Now that the Second Division has been completely wiped out, the next step is to attack Ping'an County.

There were still more than a thousand Japanese and puppet troops in Ping'an County, most of whom were puppet soldiers and traitors.

Currently, the independent battalion can mobilize about 2,000 troops for combat, plus more than 1,000 people from local district squads, county battalions, militia forces, etc., a total of more than 3,000 people.

In terms of troop strength, the independent battalion is smaller than the garrison garrison in Ping'an County, and the two sides have a one-to-one troop strength ratio.

But Ping'an County is a large county with strong and solid defenses and sturdy fortifications.

Therefore, if the independent battalion wants to capture Ping'an County by force, it will still cost a considerable price.

If we could use the deaths of Sadaichi Yoshimoto and Saburo Okazaki to wage a psychological warfare against the defenders in Heian County, then we could severely undermine their morale and fighting spirit... In this way, it would be relatively easier to capture Heian County.

Chen Zhengguo naturally understood what Su Zheng meant, nodded and said, "Understood, leave it to us!"

Su Zheng nodded.

Upon learning that Sadaichi Yoshimoto and Saburo Okazaki had been killed, Su Zheng was in a very good mood.

Because Yoshimoto Sadaichi was the general, second only to the marshal.

Now that Yoshimoto Sadaichi has died at the hands of the Independent Battalion, he has become the highest-ranking military commander of the Japanese who died on the battlefield in China.

The rank of general!

This military rank is quite high.

It is considered the ceiling for many Japanese soldiers.

Although there is a marshal above the general, the marshal is out of reach for the Japanese navy and army.

During World War II, the Japanese conferred the title of marshal on a total of six people.

Among these six marshals, four are active marshals and two were awarded the rank posthumously.

Therefore, it is very masculine to become a marshal.

Not to mention marshals, there weren't many people even holding the rank of general in the Japanese army.

Therefore, the impact and sensation caused by the independent battalion's killing of the old Japanese general Yoshimoto Sadaichi was enormous.

Not only did he kill the Japanese general Yoshimoto Sadaichi, but he also killed the lieutenant general and chief of staff Saburo Okazaki.

These two old devils are definitely big fish.

Now they have all been killed by Su Zheng’s independent battalion.

The complete annihilation of the elite Kwantung Army's Second Division and the killing of Yoshimoto Sadaichi and Okazaki Saburo was definitely a great achievement.

Afterwards, Su Zheng continued to inspect and comfort the troops to understand the situation of each unit. At the same time, he ordered each unit to clean up the battlefield as soon as possible and continue to advance towards Ping'an County.

This time, the main infantry regiments that were wiped out in the second line of defense were the 29th and 31st Infantry Regiments.

Therefore, during the process of clearing out supplies, no heavy weapons were found. Mainly Japanese standard weapons, such as the Type 38 rifle, the Type 99 light machine gun, the Type 92 heavy machine gun, and some small-caliber mortars.

These are quite a lot.

Excluding some weapons and equipment damaged in battle, there are still more than 4,000 weapons and equipment of various types.

This is another wave of profit for the independent industry.

However, in addition to these light weapons, there were some unexpected gains.

When Yang Zhihua saw Su Zheng coming towards him, he immediately went up to him with a smile on his face and said, "Captain, this time our independent battalion has a few more large-caliber artillery pieces!"

Su Zheng: "Oh? What artillery?"

Yang Zhihua: "Type 105 mm mountain gun."

The heavy artillery regiment of the Second Division had been almost completely destroyed by the Independent Battalion, and most of the artillery and main guns had been blown up and destroyed.

However, the 2nd Division still retained several large-caliber artillery pieces in the second line of defense.

This is the Type 150 mm mountain gun.

The Type 150 mm mountain gun is one of the Japanese's heavy artillery. Its characteristics are long range, great power, and it is also very light and can be disassembled and assembled.

Generally speaking, the Type 150 mm mountain gun is mainly equipped in the heavy artillery regiment of the field division, or the mountain artillery regiment in the regiment, and its function is to conduct complex mountain warfare.

Although the Type 150 150mm mountain gun is not very excellent, its data and performance are all very good. The caliber is 1303.0mm; the barrel length reaches 800mm; the weight is ten minutes, reaching 334kg; the shells that can be used are explosive bombs, fragmentation grenades, chemical bombs, etc., and the initial velocity of the projectile is 7500m/sec; the maximum range is m, which is quite good.

Su Zheng naturally knew about the Type 150 mm mountain cannon, so he couldn't help but ask, "How many are there?"

Yang Zhihua: "Not many, only five!"

"There are quite a few damaged parts on these five Type 150 mm mountain guns, but they are not a problem... they can be repaired."

Su Zheng's face lit up and he said, "That's great. This time in the battle with the Second Division, your artillery company suffered heavy losses. The capture of these five Type 150 mm mountain cannons can effectively supplement our artillery force."

Yang Zhihua: “That’s right.”

These Type 150 mm mountain guns are the last resort of the two regiments.

However, they never expected that the Dragon Soul Special Forces launched a sneak attack on the artillery positions of their only five remaining Type 150 mm mountain cannons, and were eventually wiped out by the artillery. These artillery pieces did not have any major problems and eventually fell into the hands of the independent battalion.

The Second Division originally planned to use these Type 150 mm mountain guns to catch the independent battalion off guard and defend the second line of defense, but in the end, they didn't fire a single shot.

Such a result... one can only say that life is unpredictable.

The independent battalion was quickly cleaning up the battlefield, dealing with the wounded and fallen soldiers, etc. Everything was busy.

At the same time, military reporter Wu Xiaojin was constantly using his camera and notes to record the post-war situation.

It has to be said that the battle between the Independent Battalion and the Second Division shocked Wu Xiaojin greatly.

She never expected that the independent battalion could completely wipe out the Kwantung Army's Second Division in such a short time!

........ . 0

This is a very elite combat division.

This battle made Wu Xiaojin more deeply appreciate the combat effectiveness of the independent battalion.

It's just too strong.

At this time, Wu Xiaojin was recording the battle situation of the Independent Battalion and the Second Division, and his heart was still surging with excitement.

By chance, Su Zheng ran into Wu Xiaojin. Looking at Wu Xiaojin who was recording an interview, he asked, "Mr. Reporter Wu? Are you busy?"

Wu Xiaojin nodded: "Well... I'm taking notes and conducting interviews. Deputy Commander Su, your independent battalion is really too strong. Today I've been enlightened again!"

Having served as the independent battalion's military reporter for some time, Wu Xiaojin has also participated in many battles of the independent battalion.

But no battle was as shocking and shocking as this one against the 2nd Division.

Su Zheng: "Oh? What do you think of this battle?"

Wu Xiaojin: "It's so shocking, so shocking... Deputy Commander Su, the combat effectiveness, weapons and equipment, and combat quality displayed by the independent battalion are all shocking to me!"

"I plan to do a comprehensive multi-day special report on this Ping'an County Battle!"

Su Zheng nodded and said, "Well...thank you for your hard work, reporter Wu."

Wu Xiaojin: "It's not hard... Such a battle should be recorded in history and passed down to future generations."

Indeed, a battalion-level combat unit of the Eighth Route Army annihilated an elite Type A Division, the Second Division. This is absolutely an incredible achievement and naturally needs to be fully recorded in history.

Su Zheng: "Okay, then I won't bother reporter Wu anymore, you are busy..."

After saying that, Su Zheng continued to work.

At the same time, the independent battalion's vanguard elite company and the Sichuan Army company took the lead in advancing towards Ping'an County.

Finally, they reached the city of Ping'an County.

The troops came to the city.

At this time, Takeshita Shun in Ping'an County was trembling with fear...

Chapter 438: Shocking Victory: Is the Independent Battalion Comparable to a Hundred Thousand Elite Troops? (First update, please subscribe)

In the city of Ping'an County.

Takeshita Shun knew that the independent battalion launched an attack at around four o'clock.

He only heard bursts of loud explosions and sounds like continuous firecrackers coming from outside Ping'an County, but he didn't know what the battle situation was like.

Toshiya Takeshita was well aware that the 2nd Division had launched tank and armored vehicle operations at night, but they all ended in failure.

Therefore, Takeshita Shun had no idea whether he could hold the defense line outside the city.

Later, the independent battalion launched an attack, which made Takeshita Shun even more worried.

Didn't sleep the whole night.

Tatata...

Just when Takeshita Shun was still nervously worried about the battle situation of the Second Division outside the city, a sound of footsteps was heard.

A Japanese lieutenant hurriedly came to Takeshita Shun and said, "Report to the Colonel, something serious has happened."

Takeshita Shun quickly asked, "What happened?"

The Japanese lieutenant said: "I just learned the latest situation from the front observation post. The second line of defense of the Second Division has been occupied by the Eighth Route Army Independent Battalion. At the same time, the Second Division headquarters suffered a devastating blow!"

"According to this analysis, the Second Division's "August 10th" might have met with an accident and all of them have died for their country!"

"what?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Takeshita Shun's face changed drastically.

His whole face was filled with indescribable shock.

Stunned!

shocked.

His eyes were full of disbelief.

The Second Division was completely wiped out?

A fully-staffed division was completely wiped out by a battalion-level combat unit of the Eighth Route Army?

This...isn't this too incredible?

How can it be?

You know, the 2nd Division is the elite Type A combat division in the Kwantung Army.

Their combat capability is very strong and their equipment is very sophisticated. They have a large number of heavy artillery regiments and tank and armored vehicle regiments.

But they were completely wiped out by the Eighth Route Army's Independent Battalion?

The Second Division had fought against the elite troops of the Central Army, German-equipped divisions, etc., and had always been invincible.

But now they were destroyed as soon as they entered northwest Shanxi and encountered the independent battalion?

This is simply unbelievable.

If the facts were not laid out before him, Takeshita Shun would never have believed it.

Takeshita Shun's head was confused, and he muttered: "This... How is this possible? This is an elite Type A division, the most elite combat unit of the Kwantung Army."

"Type A Division...was it completely wiped out by the Independent Battalion?"

So surprising!

As a Japanese soldier, Takeshita Shun was naturally aware of the position of the Type A Division in the Japanese Army.

The Type A divisions of the Japanese Army occupied a very important position in the Japs' forces.

The first aspect is naturally the tilt of various types of weapons and equipment resources.

When many advanced weapons are put into service and equipped to troops, they are allocated to Type A divisions first.
