Bright Sword: I took Li Yunlong to work in military industry

Chapter 297 The entire northwest of Shanxi is turned into a pot of porridge

From the moment the independent regiment fired the first shot at the Japanese troops in the pass outside Ping'an County, it was like lighting a spark in a pile of dry straw.

In just a dozen hours, the entire wilderness turned into a fire field.

For the entire northwest Shanxi, the whole place was in flames at this time.

It can be said that almost all combat-capable Chinese armed forces in this land fought against the Japanese devils, whether it was the Eighth Route Army, the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army, the Central Army, or various forms of local armed forces, all of them fought against the Japanese devils, and even the bandits followed the regular army to pick up the spoils.

This time, under the leadership of the leader Xie Baoqing, Heiyun Village picked up a lot of good things.

"Boss, what's going on? Why is there so much fighting in northwest Shanxi? The Japanese are going crazy, desperately heading south.

We fought them briefly and they retreated without even taking their bodies or weapons."

Shanmaozi took the turtle box that he had searched from the Japanese officer, squinted his eyes and looked at the Japanese corpses all over the ground. With his knowledge, he couldn't understand why this happened.

Xie Baoqing glanced at Shanmaozi, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes: "You...you know nothing..., things are going to change! With the Chinese army being able to force the Japanese...the Japanese...to this extent, the Japanese will probably be gone in a few days."

"What does that have to do with us? Once the door is closed, whoever comes can fight whoever comes. Who can bully our Black Cloud Village?" Shanmaozi disagreed.

"Have you ever seen...a peaceful and prosperous world where bandits can stay?"

Although Xie Baoqing was not very eloquent, he had a sharp eye and quickly saw what was hidden behind this vigorous battle.

As he spoke, Xie Baoqing patted Shanmaozi on the head.

The mountain cat covered his head and didn't dare to talk back to the boss.

"Also... also, I asked you to investigate, why have the puppet troops... the puppet troops been chasing us for the past six months?" Xie Baoqing suddenly thought of something.

"Boss, there are some clues. Someone in the puppet army passed on a message saying that half a year ago, our Black Cloud Village robbed a group of college students from Peking and killed them. Some of these college students had extraordinary backgrounds, so the puppet army has been keeping an eye on us, saying that the higher-ups have issued a death order to kill us all.

Because our Black Cloud Village is easy to defend but difficult to attack, we have never been able to take it down."

The mountain cat explained.

"What? ... Why did you rob the college students from Peking? You ... you did it?"

Xie Baoqing glared at Shanmaozi.

"Boss, I really haven't done it."

"Forget it, let's go."

Xie Baoqing waved his hand, leaving behind twenty or thirty stripped Japanese corpses, and the one or two hundred people from Heiyun Village quickly evacuated into the mountains.

This is just a microcosm of the war that is spreading across northwest Shanxi. Countless troops and armed forces were involved, and a series of battles broke out.

It had almost reached the border of northwest Shanxi. There was a small battle every ten miles and a large battle every thirty miles. The whole place was covered with flames of war and it was no exaggeration to say that.

Commander Yan, who was stationed in Shaanxi, was overjoyed when he learned that the entire northwest of Shanxi was in chaos.

As an old Jin person, his eyes are always on Jin.

"Hahaha, great, great, as long as we can wipe out the enemy's manpower, it will be just a matter of time before we take back our Jin territory.

Send me the order!

Order all units under the Jinsui Army to have the responsibility to defend the land and resist the enemy. They must resist the invading Japanese pirates and return our beautiful land and mountains to us!

If anyone can take advantage of this opportunity to recapture the county town occupied by the devils, I will give him a three-level promotion! "

Commander Yan has crossed the Yellow River and is stationed in Shaanxi, but he still remotely controls all military affairs in Shanxi.

After this order was issued, he sent an unwritten order to his confidants in the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army through his own confidential channels: requiring everyone to enter the battlefield to fight the Japanese only when conditions permit, and if possible, let the Eighth Route Army and the Central Army fight the Japanese first.

This is to reap the benefits while others are still the ones doing the work.

In the south of Jin, Commander Wei was stationed there. Because he always adopted an active defensive posture, he also put great pressure on the Japanese troops in the south of Jin.

"Hahaha, great! This time the Eighth Route Army really made a big splash, just like they did a few months ago when they destroyed the enemy's transportation lines on a large scale.

Last time, the scale of the battle was over a hundred regiments, and judging from the state of the battle this time, it is estimated that it will not be much smaller.

Now that they have started the fight, we as the regular army cannot sit idly by!

Pass on my order, the teams that are in a tangled state with the Japanese invaders must immediately initiate a battle and tie down all the Japanese forces in the Zhongtiao Mountain area in southern Shanxi, leaving them no time to look north!

In this way, we can support the entire battle in northwest Shanxi!

In addition, if we can capture some key passes held by the Japanese in southern Shanxi, it will change the current situation in which we are at a disadvantage in the confrontation with the Japanese.

Let's take a closer look at how big a storm this attack on Ping'an County will cause! "

Commander Wei decisively issued orders to his men.

His deputy came over and advised, "Commander, should we ask for instructions from the southwest? What if the president has different ideas?"

"What instructions are you asking for? Such a great opportunity will be lost in a flash! As the person in charge of this department, I must make such a decision.

Furthermore, if the report is submitted, the president may not approve the support for the battle in northwestern Shanxi due to various pressures.

Then the president will inevitably face pressure from public opinion. Isn't this disregarding leadership?

As a qualified subordinate, you must know how to share the worries of your leader! "

Commander Wei simply and decisively rejected his deputy's suggestion and firmly supported harassing the Japanese in the southern Shanxi region to prevent them from moving north and to divert the attention of the Japanese command center in the Taiyuan direction.

The beacon fire ignited by the independent regiment exploded quickly and spread to the entire northwest of Shanxi at an extremely fast speed. At this time, it had become a raging sea of ​​​​fire.

Not only the northwest of Shanxi, but the entire Shanxi area has become a turbulent situation.

At this time, the entire Jin area was in real chaos.

This is especially true for the highest-ranking official in Jindi of the Japanese army.

Yoshio Shinozuka was already extremely worried. Ever since he received the letter for help from Yamamoto Ikki and issued the order for reinforcements, reports of reinforcements being blocked from all directions came in like snowflakes.

The Chinese army, which was originally vulnerable to the locust army, was now like crazy, trying to stop the locust army's reinforcements at all costs and regardless of consequences.

He has been in charge of Jin for several years, but he has never seen such a shocking scene.

Not only that, a few hours after the order was issued, large-scale fighting broke out in southern Shanxi, which made him almost exhausted.

Looking at the pile of telegrams about blocked reinforcements, a word suddenly flashed through Yoshio Shinozuka's mind: saturation attack.

This time, the Chinese army concentrated almost all its strength to fight a saturation blocking war.

"Tell me, what is the situation outside Ping'an County now?"

Yoshio Shinozuka asked his staff.

"Report to the General, according to the latest news from Colonel Yamamoto an hour ago, all the positions outside Ping'an County have been lost, and they have already withdrawn their forces to defend the city."

Yoshio Shinozuka put down the thick stack of telegrams in his hand, stared at the huge battle map on the wall, and remained silent for a long time.
