(I updated a chapter this afternoon and it was blocked.)
Li Yunlong quickly walked into the inner room of the regiment headquarters and took out the radio communication machine from the cabinet.
Installing the batteries and adjusting the radio channel and wavelength were very skillful.
Pressing the call button, Li Yunlong picked up the handset and called: "Boss Li calls Boss Chen, please answer if you hear; Boss Li calls Boss Chen, please answer if you hear; Boss Li calls Boss Chen, please answer if you hear."
"Hello, Boss Li, please wait a moment, my boss will be here soon." Yan Shuangying's voice came from the receiver.
Sure enough, after a while, Chen Feng's voice sounded in Li Yunlong's ears: "Hey, is this Boss Li?"
"It's me." Li Yunlong laughed and said, "Boss Chen, do you have time now? I have a big business here that I want to talk to you about."
"I will come to your mansion in two hours." Chen Feng said on the radio.
"Okay." Li Yunlong said, "Let's see you there or not."
After hanging up the call, Li Yunlong took out his Roman watch and checked the time, preparing to prepare a table of food and wine half an hour in advance.
Putting the Roman watch back into his pocket, Li Yunlong took out a map and spread it on the table.
In the morning, the commander called Li Yunlong to the headquarters and told him about commanding the troops to attack the Japanese 37th Division.
And even which troops will participate in this battle has been determined.
Li Yunlong wrote and drew on the map for two hours.
"Report!" Guard Huang Erhu shouted outside the door.
"Come in!" Li Yunlong replied.
Huang Erhu saluted with a military salute: "Report to the leader, the distinguished guest has arrived."
Li Yunlong then took out his Roman watch and looked at it. Two hours had passed and it was almost getting dark.
"Let the cooking team cook some hard vegetables. I want to entertain the distinguished guests."
Li Yunlong got down from the kang, put away the map, and gave instructions to Huang Erhu.
"Yes!" Huang Erhu straightened his body first, turned around and walked out.
After putting away the map, Li Yunlong hurriedly walked out and walked out of the courtyard door, just in time to see Chen Feng and Yan Shuangying standing at the door.
The female bodyguard from last time didn't come.
Li Yunlong hurriedly stepped forward to greet him: "Haha, brother Chen, I hope you'll forgive me for missing you."
Chen Feng: "Brother, you're welcome."
"Come inside and sit down."
Li Yunlong welcomed Chen Feng into the inner room of the regiment headquarters.
The two of them were sitting cross-legged on the Kang. Chen Feng got straight to the point and asked: "Brother, you said on the radio that there is a big business?"
"That's right."
Li Yunlong nodded: "This is a bigger business than all the previous ones."
"What business?" Chen Feng asked with a slight movement in his expression.
"Kill the business of a Japanese division." Li Yunlong said.
"Which Japanese division do you want to kill?"
Chen Feng narrowed his eyes. It seemed that the Eighth Route Army was going to play a big game this time.
Li Yunlong said: "The Japanese 37th Division."
"According to inside information, the Japanese army will launch a raid on our Eighth Route Army base area in southeastern Shanxi within half a month at most."
"This time the Japanese army is coming with force and strength. It is conservatively estimated that the Japanese army plus puppet troops will be no less than 60,000 people."
"This time, our Eighth Route Army has changed its tactics. Instead of breaking into pieces and breaking out separately, we will concentrate our efforts to annihilate them all. The target is the Japanese 37th Division."
"Brother Li, I was appointed to serve as the commander-in-chief of this battle in the face of danger. Are you interested in doing this business?"
Li Yunlong was not afraid to reveal the combat objectives in advance. After all, this was a business negotiation, and he must let Chen Feng know which division it was, so that Chen Feng could offer a price.
[Recommended, Yeguo Reading is really easy to use, download it here www. Come and give it a try.]
However, this is a Japanese division. Although it is only a three-unit division, it is not that easy to eliminate.
Chen Feng looked thoughtful, tapped his fingers on the table, and said, "If you ask me if I'm interested, of course I am."
Chen Feng guessed that the Eighth Route Army was going to play a big game, but he didn't expect it to be so big.
In fact, it is very clever to use the tactic of breaking into pieces and breaking out of the encirclement. When the enemy is strong and we are weak, this can avoid suffering heavy losses.
However, the direct smashing of the Japanese attack exposed a big flaw in the iron wall encirclement of the Japanese and puppet troops, and the so-called iron wall encirclement was shattered.
Of course, the premise is that once the war begins, the Eighth Route Army can kill all the Japanese attacks within a day or two.
"Brother, what price can you offer?" Li Yunlong stared at Chen Feng expectantly, hoping for a good price.
"It is very difficult to completely annihilate the Japanese divisions."
Chen Feng did not answer directly, but said: "As far as I know, since the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, no Japanese division has been completely wiped out."
"That's true." Li Yunlong nodded and said, "The Wanjialing victory was almost successful, but in the end it fell short."
Chen Feng withdrew his gaze from the system panel: "In this way, brother, as long as you can lead your troops to severely damage the Japanese 37th Division, the price is 1,000 tons of weapons and ammunition and 1,000 tons of food."
"What about total annihilation?" Li Yunlong asked.
"Total annihilation is also the price."
Chen Feng picked up the bowl and took a sip of water, and said: "But... if we can kill the Japanese division commander, the price will be no less than the Lieutenant General Muto Akira we killed last time."
The last time the Japanese division commander Akira Muto was killed, the price was a howitzer battalion and a 60mm mortar production line.
Li Yunlong looked slightly happy when he heard this. The price this time will not be lower than last time... The price is really delicious.
"Moreover, as long as it is the troops under your command, brother, I will still consume and reimburse the weapons and ammunition consumed in combat."
"Thank you very much, Brother Chen." Li Yunlong showed gratitude on his face.
Li Yunlong has never lied to Chen Feng about the consumption of weapons and ammunition.
Because he knew that Chen Feng's intelligence capabilities were not inferior to the Eighth Route Army's huge intelligence network. If assistance was cut off because of lying, he would become a sinner of the Eighth Route Army.
"Brother, I guess you haven't eaten yet. Brother, I have prepared some food and wine. Let's have a drink." Li Yunlong said.
"Aren't you quitting drinking?" Chen Feng asked.
Li Yunlong: "..."
Li Yunlong had no choice but to say: "That's right, why did I forget about this? Then let's just eat food and not drink."
Not long after, the cook brought the food in. The food was hard vegetables and the rice was white rice.
Chen Feng said while eating: "Tomorrow at noon, at the same place, I will personally give you the deposit for this business."
"Deposit?" Li Yunlong asked hurriedly, "How much weapons and ammunition?"
Chen Feng: "You will know tomorrow."
…
Taiyuan.
Japanese First Army Headquarters.
meeting room.
A group of senior Japanese military officers were sitting in rows on chairs, with the lowest rank being major general on their shoulders.
Japanese 2nd Guards Division Lieutenant General Naganomura Momoyo, 37th Division Commander Lieutenant General Hirata Kenyoshi, 14th Brigade Commander Major General Motosen Kaoru, 18th Brigade Commander Major General Nakaaga Taro, and First Army Chief of Staff Major General Kusuyama Hideyoshi
.
The 14th Brigade and the 18th Brigade both have great backgrounds.
Among them, the 18th Brigade was originally part of the Japanese 9th Division and participated in the battle to capture Nanjing.
The 14th Brigade originally belonged to the Japanese 7th Division.
These two brigades were originally affiliated with the permanent divisions, but both brigades suffered heavy losses in the offensive of the war.
The original elite soldiers of these two brigades have been lost in the war, and the combat effectiveness of the newly recruited soldiers is far behind.
But after all, it is an infantry brigade transferred from a permanent division, and its combat effectiveness cannot be underestimated.
On the long conference table, there is already a sand table made by the combat staff, and the real mountains and rivers are clearly visible.
"Salute!" came the guard's voice at the door.
Amidst the sound of footsteps, Yoshio Shinozuka walked into the headquarters conference room wearing shiny black leather shoes.
All the Japanese officers stood up and bowed their heads to Yoshio Shinozuka.
Yoshio Shinozuka turned and glanced at the door. The guard closed the door consciously, stepped back ten meters away, and did not allow anyone to approach.
"Sit!" Yoshio Shinozuka pressed down with his hands.
All the Japanese officers sat back down in their chairs, looking intently, with a look of coldness and perseverance.
Yoshio Shinozuka sat on the first chair and said coldly: "Starting from late August last year, the Eighth Route Army attacked the Imperial Army from all over North China. It was also the so-called Hundred Regiment Battle of the Eighth Route Army. The Imperial Army suffered approximately 100,000 casualties.
With 25,000 people, the Imperial Army's raids on the Eighth Route Bandit Areas have all ended in failure. Major General Tsuda Mitake, Major General Koshiki Toranosuke, Major General Hattori Naoomi, Lieutenant General Muto Akira, and Major General Hirata were all shattered."
"They are all excellent generals of the empire, but they were all destroyed in the First Army Defense Area. I bear unshirkable responsibility for this."
Speaking of this, Yoshio Shinozuka squeezed out a few tears and looked very sad.
However, all the Japanese officers present except Kusuyama Hideyoshi were a little panicked.
In less than a year, 4 major generals and 1 lieutenant general were killed in the First Military District, which really set a big record.
Among them, except for the 37th Division, Kunomura Momoyo, Nakaaga Taro, and Nagamoto Izumi Kaoru were all recently transferred to the First Army.
The First Army of the North China Front has long been famous for deposing generals. Many senior officers discussed in private that they were afraid of being transferred to the First Army to fight the Eighth Route Army.
Shinozuka Yoshio's eyes seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts. When he saw this, he said: "You don't have to worry. So far, the number of Chinese generals who have been eliminated by our imperial army has reached 121. Chief of Staff Kusuyama-kun has formulated a detailed plan
According to the operational plan and emergency preparedness, in the subsequent raids on the Eighth Route Army's base area in southeastern Shanxi, the number 121 will increase. As for the increase, it depends on your combat performance."
"Now, please invite Mr. Nanshan to make arrangements for this spring sweep operation."
Kusuyama Hideyoshi first lowered his head, then stood up, opened the folder with "Operation Plan A" written on the cover and read:
"The 37th Division set out from Xiangyuan and Licheng, swept and attacked to the north."
"The 2nd Guards Division swept and attacked southward from the Xiyang and Heshun areas."
"The 14th Brigade and the 113th Infantry Regiment swept eastward from Qixian and Taigu, and the 18th Brigade and the 121st Infantry Regiment swept westward from Changhan Road."
"The four armies will advance separately and attack together to completely eliminate the Eighth Route Army in southeastern Shanxi!"
"Hi!" the four Japanese officers shouted in unison.
Kusuyama Hideyoshi and Shinozuka Yoshio were also cautious enough. In order to prevent the leakage of intelligence, they did not issue an order for the puppet troops and Japanese troops to exchange military uniforms at the combat meeting.
Wait for the Japanese and puppet troops to arrive at the designated location before suddenly issuing the order.
The intelligence work of the Eighth Route Army is really great. After all, this is the key to annihilating at least half of the Eighth Route Army. If the intelligence is leaked, it will be very bad.
