Anti-Japanese War: Developing on my own, I brought back a US-equipped division

Completely wiped out the Second Division?

Recovered Ping'an County?

Such a series of combat victories stunned the general, the deputy chief of general staff and the division commander. The expressions on their faces froze for a moment.

It can be said that from the time the independent battalion launched the attack on Ping'an County to now, after nine o'clock in the evening, the entire battle lasted less than four days.

The fighting was most intense and the damage was the most serious on the fourth day.

That is today's battle.

Early this morning, the Second Division, with the help of its huge tank and armored vehicle forces, attempted to counterattack the first line of defense occupied by the Independent Battalion. However, the Independent Battalion unexpectedly used advanced Sherman M4 tanks and RPG-7 rocket launchers to defeat and destroy the armored combat forces of the Second Division.

Then at around four o'clock in the morning, the independent battalion launched a general attack on the second line of defense of the Second Division.

After a fierce battle and heavy casualties, the independent battalion completely wiped out the 827nd Division and killed Yoshimoto Sadaichi and Okazaki Saburo.

Soon after, the Taiyuan side and the Army Aviation Force arranged by Yoshio Shinozuka arrived.

Su Zheng was flying the only P51 Mustang fighter of the independent battalion in an air battle with 15 Japanese fighter planes. He eventually succeeded in shooting down ten of them, laying the foundation for victory in the battle to capture Ping'an County.

Subsequently, with the morale and fighting spirit of the victory in the air battle, the independent battalion and local armed forces launched an attack on Ping'an County.

After several hours of fighting, the independent battalion successfully broke through Ping'an County and killed Takeshita Shun, Saki Muyu, Fan Jinming, Zhu Ziming and others.

In the end, the independent battalion completely liberated Ping'an County.

This is the battle that the Independent Battalion has experienced in the past 24 hours.

It was one battle after another, with no chance to catch a breath, let alone rest the troops.

It was under such circumstances that the independent battalion successfully recovered Ping'an County.

Precisely because these battles took place within one day, the commander and the headquarters did not know that the independent battalion had completely wiped out the Second Division and recovered Ping'an County at a very fast speed.

Now listening to the independent battalion's combat report, the deputy chief of general staff, the general and the division commander were all stunned.

The three of them stood there in a daze, their expressions frozen for a moment, they were extremely shocked, their eyes filled with disbelief.

This result is really surprising.

The Second Division was... completely wiped out just like that?

The elite Second Division was wiped out in less than three days of fighting?

This speed is too fast!

shocked!

I was completely stunned.

The three people at the Eighth Route Army headquarters were completely dumbfounded.

Everyone was shocked by the news of victory.

stunned.

Incredible.

Because the speed is too fast.

Senseless!

They were all confused.

Even the boss who had seen many storms was completely stunned. His face was filled with shock. His heart was filled with turmoil. He slowly said, "This... This independent battalion annihilated the Second Division and recovered Ping'an County so quickly?"

Just now the three of them were discussing the situation of the Ping'an County battle.

According to the combat experience and enemy and friendly situation analysis of the general, deputy chief of staff and division commander, it was believed that the independent battalion would need at least three to five days to finish the battle in Ping'an County.

After all, the Second Division is so elite, it will be a tough battle.

And according to the analysis of the division commander and the deputy chief of general staff, as a battalion-level combat unit, the independent battalion has the greatest possibility of defeating the Second Division.

Defeating the Second Division means driving it away, not completely annihilating it.

After all, it is extremely difficult to completely wipe out the Second Division.

You know, in the Battle of Kunlun Pass.

The Fifth Army of the Central Army of the 12th Group Army launched the battle in the early morning of December 18 and ended the battle on December 12. It finally annihilated more than 30 people of a brigade under the Fifth Division of the Steel Army and killed the brigade commander Masao Nakamura.

An army!

It is also an elite ace unit of the Central Army.

Therefore, it is extremely difficult to completely wipe out an elite Type A division.

But now the independent battalion has wiped out the second division with the strength of only one battalion?

No wonder the general, deputy chief of general staff and division commander were so shocked.

The deputy chief of staff took the telegram from the communicator and looked at it. His face changed with shock and he said, "Oh my God, the independent battalion really wiped out the Second Division and killed two old devils, Yoshimoto Sadaichi and Okazaki Saburo. It's really unbelievable."

The teacher was also shocked and stunned. He slowly said, "Yes... This is really incredible!"

"We thought that the independent battalion could at most defeat the Second Division, but we didn't expect that the independent battalion would completely annihilate the Second Division, and even complete two major battles in such a short period of time, destroying the Second Division and the photovoltaic Ping'an County. It's too strong!"

The Deputy Chief of General Staff and the division commander had never seen the combat effectiveness of the independent battalion, nor had they seen the independent battalion's combat forces in their entirety.

Now hearing that a single independent battalion had wiped out the entire Second Division, the shock I felt was simply indescribable.

The general had not yet recovered from his shock and said, "The Second Division... This is the most elite Type A division of the Japanese, but it was completely wiped out by a battalion-level combat unit of our independent battalion!"

"This sounds like something out of this world and is unbelievable."

"How many troops, how strong are the combat forces, and how advanced are the weapons and equipment of the Independent Battalion... to be able to completely wipe out the Second Division in such a short time!"

The general had previously visited the Xinzhongcun base to inspect its development, as well as the appearance and equipment of the independent battalion, and had personally experienced the defense of the Xinzhongcun base.

It can be said that the general has a better understanding of the combat effectiveness and situation of the independent battalion than the deputy chief of general staff and the division commander.

However, the boss was still shocked to hear such great news.

The deputy chief of general staff and the division commander were both confused. They couldn't understand how the independent battalion could wipe out the elite Second Division with only one battalion's strength.

Now that they have learned of such a result, the first reaction of the three big bosses, the general, the deputy chief of staff and the division commander, is: the independent battalion is too strong.

It was so powerful that it refreshed their cognition again.

During the Battle of Xinzhong Village, the Independent Battalion turned defeat into victory despite being surrounded and annihilated, and completely wiped out more than 10,000 Japanese and puppet troops. This was already a glorious military achievement and demonstrated the powerful combat effectiveness of the Independent Battalion.

However, now the independent battalion has completely wiped out the Second Division. How terrifying is its combat power?

The division commander said in a shocked tone: "I have to say that the combat effectiveness of the independent battalion is really too strong... It is stronger than the combat effectiveness of our entire division!"

"Even if we concentrate all our forces, the 129th Division will not be able to defeat the nd Division!"

The Eighth Route Army’s fighting will and tactics were indeed very strong, but it also lacked hard power. For example, its equipment, combat effectiveness, logistics and ammunition were all shortcomings.

Therefore, the division commander knew very well that even with the strength of the 129th Division alone, it would not be able to defeat the Second Division.

Of course, this does not include the 129th Division's independent battalion.

The deputy chief of general staff came back to his senses, grinned and said, "Hahaha, Lao Liu... the combat effectiveness shown by the independent battalion in this Ping'an County battle is not even comparable to that of your division, not even the 100,000-strong elite Central Army!"

"Even if the Central Army's elite ace troops gather 100,000 troops, they may not be able to defeat the Second Division!"

"The Battle of Kunlun Pass is a good example. At that time, the Central Army gathered its elite troops and fought for more than ten days before annihilating a brigade of the Fifth Division."

"The Second Division's combat effectiveness is stronger than the Fifth Division, but the Independent Battalion annihilated the entire Second Division. I have to say that this combat effectiveness is too strong."

The general, the deputy chief of staff and the division commander were not very clear about the battle process and combat deployment of the entire Ping'an County.

But what is certain is that the independent battalion wiped out the Second Division and killed Sadaichi Yoshimoto and Saburo Okazaki, which is quite impressive.

He has a brilliant record and outstanding contributions.

Such a victory and good news shocked the entire Eighth Route Army headquarters, and then there was a boiling excitement...

Annihilating an entire division in its entirety... This was definitely the first time that this happened to the Eighth Route Army, and it was also the Eighth Route Army's greatest victory.

After all, not even a single army of the Central Army's direct troops could defeat the elite Type A Second Division.

Now, a battalion-level combat unit of the Independent Battalion has completely wiped out an entire Type A division. This would be something that would shock anyone.

The general, the deputy chief of staff, the division commander and others were all shocked and surprised when they heard that the independent battalion had wiped out the Second Division.

This is an incredible victory.

After recovering from his shock, the boss smiled and said, "Hahaha, this time Su Zheng's independent battalion has given us another surprise!"

"A battalion destroyed an entire Type A division. It was truly amazing."

The Deputy Chief of General Staff also smiled and said, "Yes... The Independent Battalion not only wiped out the elite Second Division, but also killed two old devils, Yoshimoto Sadaichi and Okazaki Saburo!"

"Yoshimoto Sadaichi was a general, Okazaki Saburo was a lieutenant general, and with them being killed... this means that the highest-ranking Japanese officer in our Eighth Route Army is a general, not a major general!"

"According to what we know, Yoshimoto Sadaichi will become the highest-ranking Japanese officer killed in the battlefield in China!"

"Great! The Independent Battalion and Su Zheng have done a great job again!"

The division commander nodded and said, "That's right. This time the independent battalion was able to completely wipe out the second division, which shows that the independent battalion's combat effectiveness is strong enough!"

"I've always heard that the independent battalion is very powerful, but I didn't expect it to be so strong that it even defeated the Second Division!"

"Boss, you have been to the Xinzhongcun base and have seen the independent battalion. You have the most say!"

"This... the development and combat effectiveness of this independent battalion is too fast, isn't it?"

The division commander was not clear about the specific battle process and related circumstances in Ping'an County.

But what is certain is that if the independent battalion was able to completely wipe out the Second Division, there are only two possibilities.

The first possibility is that there are enough people in the independent battalion.

As long as there are enough troops and the combat effectiveness of the independent battalion, it will not be difficult to wipe out the Second Division in such a short time.

Another possibility is that the independent battalion’s combat effectiveness is strong enough.

Only if the independent battalion's combat effectiveness is strong enough, it can completely annihilate the Second Division even if the forces are equal or even smaller in number.

The division commander didn't know how the independent battalion wiped out the Second Division, but he knew that the independent battalion's combat effectiveness was really strong.

The boss laughed and said, "You have never been to the Xinzhongcun base, so you have no idea what the base that Su Zheng is developing looks like, nor have you seen the appearance of the independent battalion!"

"I've told you before that Su Zheng is very good at developing troops and bases."

"It only took half a year for the independent battalion to be able to completely wipe out such an elite division as the Second Division from its formation. This shows that Su Zheng's ability is really extraordinary!"

"As for how strong the independent battalion is, there is no need for me to say more. However, I don't know how many people there are in the independent battalion and what kind of equipment they have."

"Since the independent battalion was able to completely wipe out the Second Division, it must be good."

The deputy chief of staff also spoke with a curious look on his face: "I really want to see the independent battalion with my own eyes... I want to see what kind of unit it is."

The commander laughed and said, "Haha... me too!"

"The development of the independent battalion is a legend. Looking at the entire Eighth Route Army and even modern military history, it is a miracle!"

The deputy chief of general staff nodded and said, "Yes, yes, yes... The most commendable thing is... the independent battalion has never suffered any defeat since its development. Whether it is against the Japanese or the Japanese, it has maintained a record of victory!"

"For example, this time we faced the elite Second Division, but the Independent Battalion still managed to completely wipe out the Second Division and even killed a general and a lieutenant general. This is quite impressive!"

The boss laughed and said, "That's right... In this Ping'an County battle, the performance of the independent battalion was really outstanding and shocking!"

"In less than four days, the independent battalion completely wiped out the Second Division and the Ping'an County defenders, totaling more than 20,000 people. It was a very beautiful offensive and recovered such an important county as Ping'an County!"

"It can be said that this time the Independent Battalion and Su Zheng both made great military achievements!"

The recovery of Ping'an County is definitely something worth getting excited about.

At the same time, this is also very beneficial to the future development of the Eighth Route Army.

In short, the independent battalion and Su Zheng made great contributions this time.

Now the general, the deputy chief of staff and the division commander are all curious about how the independent battalion was able to accomplish one incredible victory after another in such a short period of time.

The Second Division was completely annihilated, Ping'an County was recovered... all of this was accomplished within four days. More than 20,000 Japanese and puppet troops were completely annihilated. Such shocking results and achievements are truly exciting.

The boss walked to the nearby civilian building of the General Staff Headquarters and quickly said to the people who were busy, "Okay, no need to work anymore, the Battle of Ping'an County is over!"
