Chapter 167 Good News and Bad News.

"General."

Bei Ping, North China Front Army Headquarters, a staff officer ran to Okabe Naosaburo:

"The baggage transport team and Sada Alliance have arrived at Yangpo safely."

"The two brigades sent by the First Army also arrived at Yangpo safely."

"Telegram from General Hattori, he will launch a general offensive today."

"Yoshi."

Hearing the news, Naosaburo Okabe was overjoyed.

Although he was in Beiping, Jisaburo Gangbe was always paying attention to the offensive situation on the Yangpo side.

Only by capturing Yangcun, destroying Shitou Bay, and cutting off the guerrillas' sources of weapons, ammunition, and materials can the security problems in North China be completely solved. The base camp knows this, and so does Okabe Jisaburo.

Otherwise, he would not have squeezed out the troops originally prepared for mopping up to support Hattori's brigade.

This makes a mere mixed brigade reach the size of a second-line division that is almost fully staffed. It also fully reaches or even exceeds the level of a second-line division in terms of heavy weapons, and is close to the level of an A-type division.

He didn't believe it...

One division and nearly 20,000 locust troops, with the support of an aviation wing, were unable to capture a mere Tubal Road base in a mountainous area.

"Give me the call from the Major General of the Ministry of Service..."

As soon as Naosaburo Okabe finished speaking, another staff officer ran in, his steps hurried:

"General."

"Baoding, Taiyuan urgent call!"

"urgent telegram!"

It was a new month, and the emergency electricity in two cities at the same time made Okabe Naosaburo instinctively feel bad.

He remembered that there were two major generals in Baoding preparing to go to Beiping today...

There is also Taiyuan. A lieutenant general from the Mongolian Army only arrived in Taiyuan yesterday. He plans to leave today and take a special train to serve as the commander of the new division of the Southern Army.

Could it be...

"read!"

Naosaburo Okabe tried hard to keep his expression calm.

"Major General Asuka and Major General Adachi were attacked on their way to Baoding Railway Station an hour ago. They were both shattered."

"Lieutenant General Qiu Yongyue was attacked by an explosion at his residence in Taiyuan and was shattered by jade."

really··

When he heard the news that the three generals were broken into pieces, his bad thoughts were confirmed. Jisaburo Okabe found that he didn't have much emotion.

There was no expected anger, only a commonplace calmness.

After thinking for a moment, Naosaburo Okabe understood the origin of his mentality.

Over the past year, Okabe Jisaburo has become accustomed to the imperial general's jade pieces being broken once a month.

Not only am I used to seeing high-ranking military officers once a month,

I am also used to the power of the unknown mysterious force,

He tacitly believed that the generals' jade would be broken in December. Even if he ordered that the generals who went out must hide in plain clothes, it would not help.

"What exactly happened?"

Sighing slightly, Naosaburo Okabe asked.

"Major General Asuka and Major General Adachi followed the order and disguised themselves as first class soldiers to follow the patrol team to the train station and prepare to take the train to Beiping."

"But the patrol team was attacked by explosives on the way to the train station."

Having said this, the staff officer paused.

Although only an hour had passed, Baoding was a city where the Japs were stationed after four attacks. They were skilled in business, and the Japs who survived the scene were able to figure out the matter immediately and pass it on to Beiping.

"The attackers used a very strange explosive."

"The explosives were camouflaged and placed directly on the side of the road. When the two major generals passed by a dense area of ​​explosives, they used remote electric detonation. After detonation, the shrapnel and prefabricated steel balls were all directed in one direction, forming a high-density killing force."

"The escorting team also suffered heavy casualties."

"That is to say..."

Naosaburo Okabe has no interest in the so-called new explosives, but he is very interested in the location of the explosives:

"The attacker placed the explosives precisely on the way to the train station between the two major generals?"

"Moreover, even after being disguised, the attackers recognized the two major generals."

"Hi!"

The staff officer replied:

"It has not yet been investigated when the explosives were placed on the road, but it will not be long."

"It's the same situation over there in Taiyuan."

"The escort team was attacked by explosives on the way to the train station. The enemy deployed more explosives here. All 33 people in the escort team, including Lieutenant General Qiu Yongyue, were shattered."

Each side of the Japanese patrol team was half full.

"Information again..."

Naosaburo Okabe sighed.

The fragments exploded in a directional manner, causing concentrated damage. He felt that the killing effect of the new weapons and equipment was terrifying.

But the key to the destruction of the three generals is not here.

Rather, the attackers accurately grasped the intelligence of the three generals.

From route to time, security strength, and no mistakes, this is the key to a successful attack. Even without this new explosive, the attack can still be successful even if grenades are used.

"How on earth is it done?"

Jisaburo Okabe frowned deeply.

Since the Yokosuka Kongo-class was blown up,

The Imperial Headquarters personally organized an investigation team and the royal family supervised the investigation. Up to now, the investigation has caused a lot of turbulence and even affected the empire's domestic decision-making, but it still has not been able to find out where the channel for the intelligence leakage is.

Many senior officials speculated that it was not the Locust Army that leaked the information, but that the enemy obtained the information through some other means, not as good as electronic technology or other technologies.

But many people still believe that large-scale leaks were organized by high-level officials...

The two sides are arguing endlessly at home, and no one can convince the other.

As a result, while continuing the investigation, a science and technology department was also established and began to study corresponding technologies.

Okabe Naosaburo is inclined to a certain technology in his heart. If someone leaks the secret, how big will it be?

But what kind of technology can obtain the intelligence of the imperial military so accurately and almost surveillance-wise? Jisaburo Okabe asked some technical staff, but they didn't even have any ideas.

"If these people really..."

Naosaburo Okabe came to the war conference room and looked at the sand table on the table.

Taking the sunny slope as the center, after aerial photography, he used the photos to create an on-site sand table. He looked at the position of Shitou Bay above, and his expression flashed with a hint of haze.

If this group of mysterious people who repeatedly attacked senior officers of the Imperial Army and the Imperial Kongo were the same group of people who supported Tubal Road, that is, the so-called friend of Li Yunlong...

So with a cobbled-together second-class division, can we really capture Yangcun and Stone Bay?

The location of Jisaburo Okabe was naturally clear. In the attack on the Kongo, and in the subtleties of several attacks on officers, the attackers showed a very advanced technical level.

···

"This broad-sword thunder is really good..."

At the same time, on the way back to Yangcun, Zhang Dabiao and others were reminiscing about the previous scene.

Dozens of new landmines placed densely in the corners were detonated simultaneously, and dense fragments and steel balls were shot at more than thirty Japs. In an instant, almost all the Japs were covered in blood.

"really."

In the Black Hawk cabin, a team member said:

"Actually, it's just a landmine, but with this design, if used well, it's much more powerful than a landmine."

Zhang Dabiao licked his lips:

"I don't know if there are any good things from Boss Mo."

Every time you take an action, depending on the difficulty level, Boss Mo will bring out good things.
To be continued...
