"Captain, this commendation telegram from the war zone is supporting us on the surface, but in fact it makes the Japanese feel that we are their biggest concerns, and then use the Japanese to eliminate us." Tang Yufeng told the truth about the real purpose of sending this clear telegram from the war zone.

After hearing this, Chen Zhengyu's face flashed with worry, and then he looked at Zhou Cheng and wanted to speak but stopped.

"What are you afraid of?" Zhou Cheng, who frowned, suddenly spoke.

After hearing these three words, Chen Zhengyu became energetic. The worry on his face was swept away. He stared at Zhou Cheng with his eyes shining and asked, "Captain, do you have a solution?"

Zhou Cheng nodded: "It's not that there is a solution, it's that we have already started doing this!"

"After learning that Major General Honda was killed, we thought that the Japanese army would dispatch heavy troops to attack us for a second time."

"In order to block the second attack of the Japanese army at the minimum cost and save the national rescue army, we gathered heavy troops to attack the surrounding Japanese garrisons after the anti-sweeping, creating opportunities for the Eighth Route Army to kill and injure the surrounding Japanese and puppet troops, slow down the time for the Japanese army to attack us again, or directly eliminate the idea of ​​the Japanese army's second attack."

"The Japanese North China Front Army has been angered by us. We will definitely send heavy troops to attack us for a second time. While we have just won the anti-sweeping campaign, the troops have suffered heavy casualties and are weak in strength. We will fight another battle to wipe out us."

"This commendation telegram from the war zone will allow the Japanese army to send more troops to attack us."

"As long as the Eighth Route Army that was active in the surrounding areas kills more Japanese troops with our cooperation, the several garrisons around us suffer heavy casualties and are unable to take care of themselves, we can free up our hands and concentrate our troops against the Japanese who attacked our second attack. I am not afraid of sending another infantry corps from the North China Front Army!"

"Immediately Issuing an order to all the main battalions and independent battalions: the regiment headquarters allows them to take the initiative to provoke war and attack the Japanese garrison."

"In the next two days, each battalion will kill a squadron of the Japanese army for me."

"Contact the Eighth Route Army in the surrounding area, we will strengthen the offensive in the next two days to attract more Japanese and puppet troops to the front line. I hope they can seize the opportunity to attack and attack fiercely, kill more Japanese and Japanese, and severely damage the garrisons around us at all costs!"

When the Japanese Army Headquarters in Taiyuan saw the commendation telegram sent to the National Savior Army from the Second World War Zone, the commander's facial expression that had finally calmed down was once again covered by anger.

Because every reward on the telegram was slapping him in the face, the Shanxi garrison in the face.

According to the commendation telegram, all 150,000 oceans were exchanged for the lives of nearly 10,000 soldiers of the national-savior army with the lives of nearly 10,000 soldiers of the army. Each ocean carries the blood of the imperial army who died in battle.

Allowing the National Salvation Army to relied on Xiyanghe to calm down and expand its army was even more slapped in the face.

The National Salvation Army was surrounded by Shanxi garrisons and had no food and ammunition supplies. According to the principle, the weaker the more you attacked, the smaller the territory.

But what is the result?

Not only did their territory not shrink, but instead fought bigger and bigger, they were also preparing to continue to expand their army based on the pacification they had just won.

If they really do this, it will be a humiliation to the Shanxi garrison, and it will also prove the incompetence of the Shanxi garrison on the other hand.

At that time, the entire Shanxi garrison will become a laughing stock of the Imperial Japanese Army, and it will also become a joke in the Japanese military.

The display of Major General Honda's command knife not only slapped the Shanxi garrison in the face, but also slapped the entire imperial army in the face.

The Imperial Army has been promoting how powerful it is and how weak the Chinese army is on the battlefield of China.

Now the Imperial Army not only killed nearly 10,000 troops in a sweep, but also killed a major general brigade commander. The Imperial Army's invincible propaganda would be self-defeating.

When news came, the garrisons scattered in various places of the Imperial Army would definitely doubt the combat effectiveness of themselves and the Chinese army, and the puppet army would also doubt the combat effectiveness of the Imperial Army, which would affect the military morale and morale of the troops.

As for the Chinese army, they killed nearly 10,000 imperial troops in one battle, and killed a major general brigade commander, and even the sabers were seized by the National Rescue Army.

When the news spreads, it will definitely give more Chinese military and civilians confidence to fight against the Imperial Army and defeat the Imperial Army.

"Major General Honda's command knife must be robbed back!" The commander held the information in his hand and gritted his teeth to order!

"Chief of Staff, the previous combat plan for attacking the National Salvation Army was cancelled. We acted according to the new combat plan: the intelligence department immediately found the specific location of Major General Honda's command knife. After the attacking troops entered the National Salvation Army defense zone, they first robbed the command knife, and then attacked Xiyang, the base camp of the National Salvation Army, destroyed their arsenal, and finally turned around and attacked the remaining troops of the National Salvation Army to end the battle."

"In order to ensure that the entire operation is not unexpected, the two reinforcement brigades sent out in Taiyuan are directly added to one infantry corps, and the cavalry is also expanded to one brigade, and the other troops remain unchanged."

"First secretly transport it to Yangquan by train, then directly insert the command knife along the railway line and start the action..."

In the north of Yangquan, the attacking troops of the three independent regiments of the Independent Regiment were unstoppable. They took only half a day to break through three artillery towers, and wiped out more than one hundred Japanese and more than three hundred puppet troops.

In front of it was Yangquan County, which had empty troops. The regiment commander decided to take down Yangquan County in one go, and then use Yangquan County as bait to set up a net of heaven and earth, waiting for the Japanese troops on the front line to return to Yangquan, and then gather to annihilate it.

In order to block the national salvation army that occupied and pacified, and prevent them from entering Yangquan, the three squadrons of the Yangquan Garrison and the troops that pacified and retreated to Yangquan all gathered at the junction of Pingding and Yangquan, waiting for battle.

A few hours ago, the National Salvation Army was only stationed heavily on the front line, and was stanced to attack Yangquan, and did not really launch an attack.

At twelve o'clock noon, the battle suddenly started, and the National Salvation Army seemed to have fired shells at the Japanese positions with chicken blood, mountain cannons, field cannons, mortars, and infantry cannons.

The artillery finished blowing up the heavy machine gun and the heavy machine gun swept through the infantry attack. In less than three hours, the three infantry squadrons lost one squadron, and the Imperial Army of the two battalions also lost two companies.

Fortunately, the National Rescue Army stopped the attack, giving the Japanese and puppet troops a chance to breathe. If the attack continues, the Japanese and puppet troops' defense line will be wiped out for up to three or four hours.

Yangquan County, where only more than 400 troops were left, was in chaos.

Four battalions of Eighth Route Army had already appeared outside the city. They attacked when they reached outside the city, and did not give the garrison in the city any time to prepare.

"Boom..." Two mountain cannons blocking the east gate fired at the same time, and the shells flew towards the 600-meter outer city gate hole with a sharp sound.

Two balls of fire suddenly rose from the black-black city gate, and then two explosions came out "Room..."

The gunner half-squatted beside the mountain cannon immediately took action, some cleared the chamber, some loaded the ammunition, and some closed the bolt...

In less than fifteen seconds, the dull shelling sounded again...

After six consecutive cannons, the heavy city gate was finally blown up.

"Comrades, rush into Yangquan and kill the Japanese inside..." The battalion commander of the first battalion of Yangquan Independent Regiment stood up from his hiding place, held the box cannon, and took the lead in killing the city gate.
Chapter completed!
