"Captain Li, please give the order! Before departure, the leader repeatedly told us that after entering Taiyuan City, all our actions will be subject to your orders. We will do whatever you ask us to do? And you were appointed by the old regiment leader to be responsible for the action. We trust the old regiment.
Long!" the captain of the independent division's special operations team reported with a serious look on his face.
The captain of the headquarters' special operations team immediately responded: "Captain Li, just give the order, don't have any scruples, we promise to execute the order!"
"Okay!" Li Wen couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief at the two people's statements.
Then he began to issue orders: "In order to cooperate with the main force to capture Taiyuan City, we have three things to do!"
"First, control all the important warehouses and arsenals in the city to prevent the little devils from destroying those materials, equipment and ammunition at the last moment!"
"The second is the armed expatriates that the devils are organizing. They definitely want these expatriates to go up the city wall and help defend the city!"
"Although these expatriates are not regular troops, many of them are retired Japanese soldiers. Although they cannot fight in the field with them as leaders, it should not be a big problem to give them weapons and let them defend the city, and their combat effectiveness should be better than that of the puppet army.
Much better!"
"So, we must not let them go up the city wall or enter the city fortifications!"
"The third is to cooperate with the attacking troops outside the city, open a gap in Taiyuan's solid city defenses, and cover their entry into Taiyuan City!"
"As long as the main force enters a regiment, Taiyuan City will be ours, and there won't be any surprises!"
"My opinion is that the special forces of the Independent Division are responsible for controlling important targets in the city. If possible, separate a combat team to raid the Japanese headquarters!"
"Headquarters' special forces attack the overseas Chinese!"
"The most important thing is the military police squadron that stops the expatriates. As long as they are killed, the remaining expatriates will be nothing but scattered sand. Even if there are many retired veterans of the Japs in it, the role they play is very dangerous!"
"I will lead the team up the city wall and cooperate with the attacking troops outside the city to enter the city!"
"Okay!" Captain Zhang of the Independent Division's Special Forces Team replied with his eyes shining.
"The Japanese Army Command has been entrusted to me. I promise to capture the Japanese Lieutenant General Commander alive, or at least kill him!"
Not to be outdone, the captain of the headquarters' special force replied: "It's too boring to raid a group of expatriates. Captain Li, I request that the Japanese Gendarmerie Headquarters be given to me, and that the Japanese Gendarmerie Headquarters be raided together!"
"I heard that the Japanese military police headquarters has imprisoned many of our people. I'm afraid that if the time goes on, the Japanese will kill people and make our people die with them. We must rescue them all before the Japanese can react!"
"Okay!" Li Wen hesitated and replied.
At the Japanese Army Command Headquarters, the lieutenant general commander seemed to have had all the energy drained from his body. He slumped down in his seat with a pale face.
"Sir, the east of the city was attacked by heavy artillery of the Eighth Route Army. It was confirmed to be a large-caliber heavy artillery. Our fortifications were completely vulnerable to the heavy artillery. The troops suffered heavy losses. The Eighth Route Army's attack speed was also very fast, and they were about to advance to the city gate!"
"Sir, the troops stationed in the west of the city were attacked by heavy artillery from the Eighth Route Army!"
"Sir, the Eighth Route Army that was attacked by us in the south of the city has just launched a counterattack against our attacking troops. They used a large number of artillery and heavy artillery to provide artillery support. Our people can't stand it anymore and request to return to the city!"
"We can't retreat!" The lieutenant general stood up from his seat after a while and replied firmly, with no sign of the decadence he had just shown on his face.
Before the chief of staff could speak, he continued: "What if the Eighth Route Army's counterattack troops sneak into Taiyuan City while they are entering the city? I can't risk the entire Taiyuan City just because of one or two hundred imperial troops!"
"Pass my order. All troops outside the city are not allowed to enter the city. They must fight to the death with the Eighth Route Army's attacking troops!"
"If possible, organize a commando to launch a counterattack against the Eighth Route Army, find and destroy their heavy artillery."
"Without aviation reinforcements, we have no artillery to fight against. If we don't find a way to destroy those heavy artillery, as long as they have a sufficient number of artillery shells, no matter how many imperial troops are in the city, they will blow them up!"
"There are also expatriate armed forces, speed up the assembly, and then quickly go up the city wall and enter the position to assist the imperial army in defending the city!"
"I feel like we were tricked by the Eighth Route Army again!"
"In order to kill the 4,000 Eighth Route Army, all the troops stationed in the city were mobilized."
"Not only have the 4,000 Eighth Route Army not been wiped out, the troops we sent to the city have been completely consumed!"
"If it weren't for those expatriate armed forces, Taiyuan City would be an empty city in front of the Eighth Route Army!"
The chief of staff's face became more and more solemn, and he answered anxiously: "I am humble enough to give orders now!"
"Ask the gendarmerie to assemble as many expatriate armed forces as possible and send them to the city wall!"
After saying that, the chief of staff rushed out of the headquarters...
"Da da da……"
As soon as he rushed to the door of the yard, a series of gunshots reached his ears.
Before the four sentries at the command post had time to hold their guns in their hands, their chests were sifted with bullets flying towards them.
The chief of staff was shocked and immediately retreated to the yard.
The shooter was a patrol wearing imperial army uniforms. On the surface, it looked no different from other patrols around the headquarters.
But the weapons and equipment on their bodies immediately betrayed their identities.
The rifle was slung on his back and he was holding either a pistol or a submachine gun in his hand.
After killing the sentries at the door, these fake imperial soldiers no longer hide their identities and come towards the headquarters with guns in hand.
"Baga, someone is attacking the headquarters! The security forces will stop them immediately and resist them!" the chief of staff shouted loudly while his face suddenly changed.
Seven or eight nearby guards rushed over quickly, raised their rifles and were ready to shoot.
"Da da da……"
The enemy outside the door reacted faster. Three submachine guns, a light machine gun, and five or six pistols were fired at the same time. As soon as a few guards showed their bodies from the door, the flying bullets beat them into pieces.
The combat literacy of the sneak attack troops is very high, and their combat effectiveness is also very powerful!
Looking at the body lying on the ground next to him, the chief of staff sighed with surprise, and then a flash of worry appeared on his face.
Seeing a machine gunner rushing over with a light machine gun, he immediately ordered.
"Machine gunners, suppress their fire...Others shoot, block them!"
At this time, another detachment of security troops rushed over. The worry on the chief of staff's face relaxed a lot, and he pointed at the team leader and continued to order.
"Second Lieutenant, take a detachment and go behind them, attack them from both sides and kill them!"
"I really want to see who dares to be so arrogant in Taiyuan City and directly attack the headquarters!"
