Chapter 146 Chu Yunfei is envious, jealous and hateful
Yoshio Shinozuka spared no effort to support Yamamoto's special agent team, which had long caused dissatisfaction among many generals in the First Army. Even many people in the front army had objections to him.
If the commander of the front army, Okamura Neiji, hadn't helped suppress him and secretly supported him, he would have been sprayed to death by the saliva of generals at all levels.
If I can let those generals who have objections see the power of special forces with their own eyes, the pressure on myself and Neji Okamura will definitely be much less.
Staring at Yamamoto Kazuki, he asked seriously: "Yamamoto-kun, tell me the truth, what is the chance of the special agent team destroying the independent regiment headquarters? This answer is related to whether the front army headquarters and I can continue to do our best to support the special agent team.
I hope you will answer carefully!"
"I'm 100% sure!" Kazuki Yamamoto said confidently.
"The special agent team has long wanted to attack the independent group to avenge its shame!"
"We started conducting targeted training and formulating an action plan more than a month ago. After learning that there was a cliff behind Chenjiayu, we conducted five days of climbing training and revised the action plan. The special team is confident that they can all climb the cliff within ten minutes!
"
"Our intelligence personnel not only investigated Chenjiayu several times on the periphery, but also disguised themselves as Chinese people to conduct investigations deep inside Chenjiayu. They can 100% confirm that the independent regiment only deployed one platoon of security troops in the back!"
"The special agent team climbed up the cliff within ten minutes, launched a sudden attack, and killed the Eighth Route Army security force within one minute. The soldiers attacked the independent regiment headquarters and the Eighth Route Army stationed at Chenjiayu in separate groups. With the advantage of the special agent team's close combat firepower, they would definitely be able to defeat the Eighth Route Army within ten minutes.
End the battle..."
"Do you dare to issue a military order?" Shinozuka Yoshio stared at Yamamoto Kazuki and continued to ask.
Although Yamamoto Kazuki was defeated twice by the independent regiment, his blind trust in special operations has not changed at all, and he still feels that special operations are the best way to deal with the Shanxi Eighth Route Army.
No one in the Japanese army in Shanxi knew special operations better than him.
As long as they are well prepared, no matter how powerful the independent group is, they cannot be their opponents.
Yoshio Shinozuka immediately ordered: "Since you are so sure, I will organize a group of disbelieving special operations officers to observe the operation on the day of the operation... Let them be convinced and never object to the military's support of the special operations team in the future!"
At the headquarters of the Independent Regiment, Kong Jie and his chief of staff had just arrived at the village entrance when they saw two middle-aged men wearing the uniforms of the Shanxi-Sui Army, carrying the rank of colonel and captain on their shoulders, rushing over on horseback...
He stopped more than ten meters away from Kong Jie, quickly jumped off his horse, and walked over with a smile. After saluting Kong Jie and his party, he said: "I, Chu Yunfei, the commander of the 358th Regiment, have been ordered to come to the Independent Regiment for exchanges.
Study... I don’t know who Commander Kong is, I have admired Commander Kong for a long time!”
Chu Yunfei opened his mouth and praised Kong Jie fiercely, which made him feel very embarrassed and he quickly said modestly.
"I am Kong Jie, welcome Commander Chu to the Independent Regiment..."
"I heard that you, like our brigade commander, are both from the Whampoa Military Academy...I, Kong Jie, am just a fool. I don't deserve the praise of Commander Chu. I hope Commander Chu will not hesitate to give me advice when he gets to the Independent Regiment!"
"The conditions of our Eighth Route Army are poor. We are not as good as Commander Chu's 358th Regiment. Please forgive me for the poor hospitality!"
"Captain Kong is being humble..." Chu Yunfei shook his head and explained.
"What I just said was from the bottom of my heart, and it was definitely not a compliment..."
"In the battle of Cangyunling, the Gui army made a surprise attack on the Bantian Regiment and killed their artillery troops, heavy machine gun troops, baggage troops, and field hospitals... They killed more than a thousand Japs one after another, and the Bantian Regiment was unable to continue.
If we don’t end the sweep early..."
"In the battle of Lijiapo... your army blocked the fierce attack of three full infantry brigades of the Japanese army with half a regiment!"
"You also used half a regiment to surprise Yangquan and severely damaged the Japanese reinforcements... Such a feat would be second to none even in the World War II area. It's just that your army did not announce the results, otherwise Commander Kong's name would definitely be heard throughout Shanxi.
!”
"We are all China's anti-Japanese troops. We are fighting in the World War II zone at the same time and are under the command of the World War II zone. We are still friendly and neighboring troops not far apart. We may cooperate at any time to fight against the Japanese..."
"I wonder if Mr. Chu can call you Brother Kong..."
Kong Jie did not feel complacent because of Chu Yunfei's praise. Instead, he was very surprised and even a little worried.
The battle report of the independent regiment's surprise attack on Yangquan has not been released, and the results of the victory over Fujiwara's brigade are also kept secret. However, Chu Yunfei in front of him knew everything clearly, indicating that he had already investigated everything before he came over.
In his eyes, he was like a transparent person with no secrets, but he knew very little about Chu Yunfei.
It is said that if you know yourself and the enemy, you can fight a hundred battles without danger.
Now that your opponent knows you, but you don't understand your opponent, you will definitely be at a disadvantage in the subsequent interactions.
But he didn't show it. Instead, he smiled and replied: "Of course, no problem!"
"I'm so happy that I can be brothers with Commander Chu. How could I object?"
"Then I will also call you Brother Yunfei..."
At the new Second Regiment station, Li Yunlong also welcomed a colonel commander from the Shanxi-Sui Army.
Under Huang Yu's influence, Chu Yunfei, who was supposed to find Li Yunlong, actually came to Kong Jie...
This means that the grievances between Li Yunlong and Chu Yunfei are likely to be transferred to Kong Jie.
But Huang Yu didn't know these things at the moment.
In addition to leading troops for training, whenever he has time, he will go to the cliff at the back of Chenjiayu to observe the terrain...
In the original work of "Bright Sword", after the battle of Lijiapo, Li Yunlong led the independent regiment to defend Chenjiayu and protect the flanks of the headquarters...
During this period, Li Yunlong not only successfully ambushed the Japanese observation group and killed more than a hundred Japanese officers, Zhao Gang, who stayed behind in Chenjiayu, also repelled the attack of Yamamoto's special agent team at the back mountain cliff and successfully protected the flanks of the headquarters.
I thought that after Li Yunlong was transferred to the New Second Regiment as the commander, the task of garrisoning Chenjiayu would also be transferred to the New Second Regiment.
Unexpectedly, this task still fell to the independent group.
The trajectory of historical development has not changed much because of his arrival, which means that the Yamamoto special agent team is likely to sneak attack on Chenjiayu from the back mountain cliff...
Since Huang Yu knew this in advance, he would definitely not let Yamamoto Kazuki succeed.
In the original work, although the remaining troops of the Independent Regiment commanded by Zhao Gang successfully repelled Kazuki Yamamoto's attack, the Independent Regiment also paid a huge price!
If the Japanese observation group hadn't had an accident and Yamamoto's special forces retreated on their own initiative, they would have very likely broken through the independent regiment's defense line and reached the Eighth Route Army headquarters.
More importantly, the Yamamoto special agent team did not lose many people in this battle, otherwise they would not have successfully destroyed the independent regiment headquarters and seriously injured political commissar Zhao Gang in the subsequent Zhaojiayu raid...
Now that I am here, no matter what, I will make the Yamamoto Special Agent Team collapse again...
Not to mention killing them, at least let the Yamamoto Special Agents draw blood and severely injure them.
After several days of investigation, Huang Yu had memorized all the terrain of the back mountain, and a bold idea emerged in his mind...
But I need help from the group leader...
At the First Battalion of the Independent Regiment, more than 600 soldiers were trained in company units. Some companies trained to assassinate with guns, some trained to aim with guns, and some companies conducted formation training and practiced grenades...
The shouts of killing shook the sky, and Chu Yunfei felt a strong murderous aura even before he entered the training ground...
As a general who leads troops, Chu Yunfei is both familiar and unfamiliar with this feeling.
Generally, only troops that have been on the battlefield for a long time and have been through the corpse recovery process several times will have their murderous intent exposed.
He had experienced it in many Japanese troops, but he never expected that the Eighth Route Army also had such a powerful unit.
Looking at the 358th Regiment, it seems that only the guard company composed of elite soldiers and generals has murderous intent.
The expression on his face was instantly replaced by seriousness, and he quickly walked into the training ground, wanting to see them early...
"Hiss..."
When Chu Yunfei saw the equipment they were wearing, he took a deep breath...
All three-eight covers, light machine guns with crooked handles, grenade launchers, heavy machine guns, armed belts...
If they hadn't been wearing Eighth Route Army uniforms, Chu Yunfei would have almost thought he had run into a small Japanese army...
"Brother Kong...how come your army is equipped with so many Sanba Gai!" Chu Yunfei couldn't help but ask.
"Brother Yunfei laughed... Our Eighth Route Army is not as well treated as the 358th Regiment. We need guns and cannons..." Kong Jie did not hide anything and told the truth directly.
"The war zone has not replenished any weapons and ammunition for us for a long time... It is impossible for the soldiers to fight the Japanese with big blades. They can only be equipped with the 38 big cover and crooked handle to capture the Japanese..."
Not replenishing weapons and ammunition for the Eighth Route Army was requested by the superiors. Chu Yunfei also knew the reason, but it was not something he could decide. He couldn't say much and could only choose to change the topic.
"If all these 38 caps were captured from the Japs, then the force in front of us would have killed at least six to seven hundred Japs..."
"As far as I know... many main groups in the war zone have eliminated less than 600 or 700 Japanese..."
Kong Jie shook his head and explained: "Brother Yunfei underestimates this army!"
"This is the first battalion of the Independent Regiment, with a full strength of more than 600 people. It is the well-deserved main battalion of the Independent Regiment..."
"The cangyunling raid and the Yangquan raid you mentioned at the entrance of the village... they are the main force participating in the battle..."
"If I remember correctly, at least a thousand Japs died in their hands..."
"Then I want to get to know this army..." Chu Yunfei was shocked and envious after hearing this...
Unexpectedly, the main battalion of the Independent Regiment killed more Japanese than the 358th Regiment alone.
Walking into the training ground, I pinched the bullet box on a soldier's waist and continued to sigh.
"Before I came here, I heard that the Independent Regiment was an alternative to the Eighth Route Army. Other Eighth Route Army troops were still worrying about a rifle. The Independent Regiment has been equipped with heavy machine guns and mortars..."
"Other troops are still worried about heavy weapons, and the independent regiment has piles of ammunition..."
"I didn't believe it before! I felt that a unit could not meet its ammunition needs just by capturing them. Today, when I saw the independent regiment, I believed it..."
"Each soldier is equipped with thirty rounds of ammunition, two grenades and grenades..."
"Many Jinsui troops in the war zone are equipped with ammunition that is inferior to yours!"
Kong Jie didn't expect that Chu Yunfei knew all these things. He was shocked at this, but he still pretended to be calm and replied: "Brother Yunfei, you think too highly of our independent group..."
"Battlefield seizures alone will definitely not be able to meet the troops' combat needs..."
"We were not lucky. We made a surprise attack on Yangquan and seized a batch of ammunition from there..."
"Otherwise, thank God if each soldier can be issued five bullets!"
