Chapter five hundred and seventy sixth heavy army sweep
Xiong Changhe really didn't want to hide here and wait to sleep, so he set off with his men as soon as he received Wang Ping's order.
At this time, 2,000 Japanese troops and more than 1,000 puppet troops had completed their assembly in Linfen City.
"General, the troops have been assembled and are ready to go!" the chief of staff ran to Major General Matsumoto and reported.
After thinking for a while, Major General Matsumoto said with a serious face: "Let's go then! Finally, I would like to remind everyone that the radio stations I strengthened for each squadron are not decorations. If there is any situation, report it immediately. If you need help, ask for help. Don't show off or be too arrogant.
. Many of our mopping up operations against the Eighth Route Army failed because some of our officers were too arrogant, and even lost troops and generals!"
"Hi!" A total of two group captains and eight squadron leaders responded immediately.
As for how many people listened, only God knows.
Although they were full of concerns about fighting in the mountains, there was one fact that everyone knew. The remnants of the new regiment hidden in the mountains were the last enemies of the Japanese army in Linfen. If they were to be killed, Linfen would have no opponents.
This means that the elimination of the remnants of the new regiment is the last military achievement they can obtain while stationed in Linfen, and it is a military achievement that their superiors, including brigade commander Matsumoto, attach great importance to.
If you can get it yourself, you will definitely be favored by Matsumoto Chiyori.
Therefore, each of the eight squadron leaders secretly vowed to win this military exploit, and it would be best if they could enjoy it exclusively.
More than three thousand days of puppet troops, carrying rifles and light machine guns on their backs, and groups of several carrying heavy machine guns and mortars, fought their way out of Linfen City.
The shock that such a big movement brought to the people of Linfen was absolutely unique.
In the past, when they were encircling and suppressing the main force of the New First Regiment, the Japanese did not dispatch so many troops at once. Now, so many people were dispatched to encircle and suppress the remnants of the New First Regiment. It can be seen that the remnants of the New First Regiment are not as desperate as the Japanese army claimed.
destroyed by them.
As a result, the remnants of the new regiment were like flies that could not be beaten, and they grew again, and the news that the Japanese army had to send out heavy troops to encircle and suppress them was like a gust of wind, quickly spreading in Linfen.
As soon as the Japanese and puppet troops left Linfen City to attack on July 8th, news of the remnant of the new regiment spread throughout Linfen.
Xiong Changhe, dressed as an ordinary citizen, was wandering around the town, fighting for the target and getting some grain and pork back for the main force.
"I heard that the remnants of the New Regiment of the Eighth Route Army have resurrected. They destroyed several maintenance groups in the past few days and even captured a Japanese stronghold!" Suddenly, a conversation at a noodle stall nearby caught Xiong Changhe's attention.
"Boss, bring us three bowls of noodles!" Xiong Changhe put it directly on the table next to several people.
"Sir, the noodles are here!" The noodle stall owner immediately brought three bowls of mutton noodles.
Although the mutton noodles were delicious, Xiong Changhe's attention was on the table next to him.
"I've heard about it too. My nephew who just went to the county town to buy things came back and told me that all the Japs from Linfen City were dispatched, thousands of them. I heard they were all going to encircle and suppress the remnants of the New Regiment!" said the man on the table next to him.
Another middle-aged man answered quietly.
"Hiss!" Another person gasped directly from his mouth.
Then he asked with a look of disbelief: "Are the Japanese crazy? I heard that the New Regiment was beaten by them and only two or three hundred people were left. Is it too much to make a fuss by sending out two to three thousand people to deal with two or three hundred people?"
!”
"Making a fuss out of a molehill? You underestimate the Eighth Route Army." Another middle-aged man replied with a proud look on his face, as if he knew a lot.
"I have a relative who is an officer in the Imperial Army. I heard him say: Although the Eighth Route Army has a small number of people, it is very powerful. During this period, with only two to three hundred remnants, it wiped out one or two hundred Japanese, and there were still hundreds more
Imperial Alliance Army~"
"The Japanese in the county were enraged and furious, and then they decided to send troops to bypass the remnants of the New Regiment. As expected, this time the remnants of the New Regiment were in danger. It was just a pity that so many good men were all heroes who killed the Japanese.
!”
"Shh! Keep your voice down, don't let anyone hear you..." another person quickly reminded.
After Xiong Changhe finished the noodles in two mouthfuls, he dropped a few coins and left the restaurant.
Then he quickly left the town and ran towards the Japanese encirclement and suppression troops.
It wasn't until the afternoon that Xiong Changhe came back out of breath. The expression on his face was very complicated, including excitement, excitement, and worry.
"Captain, the Japs have sent out troops! Two infantry brigades and one regiment of the Imperial Army are heading towards the mountain where we are hiding!" Xiong Changhe reported hurriedly as soon as he saw Wang Ping.
Wang Ping's face quickly turned serious: "Speak clearly!"
Xiong Changhe immediately told in as much detail as possible how he heard the news and what he saw after catching up with the Japanese encirclement and suppression troops.
Then he reminded with a worried look: "Captain, the Japanese and puppet troops raided the mountain where we were hiding. The battalion commander only has thirty or forty veterans who can fight, and the rest are all wounded and prisoners. I'm worried that something will happen to them! You
Look, should we go back right away, fight off the Japanese raids, and then do other things!"
"No need!" Wang Ping replied firmly.
"In positional warfare, when our new regiment was at its peak, we were no match for these Japs. But when it comes to mountain warfare, the Japs are no match for us."
"If nothing else, even if you can't win, you can always hide!"
"The equipment and supplies in the hands of Battalion Commander Zhong are enough for them to last two months. I don't believe that the 3,000-day puppet army can last for two months after entering the mountains. No, if they can last for one month, I will obey them!"
"Li Wen!" Wang Ping turned his attention to Li Wen again.
"I believe that Battalion Commander Zhong can command a pure mountain battle. However, if the Japs dare to enter the mountains, they must have someone to rely on. Reminiscing that the Japs Brigade leader was a special forces commander before, I judge that this raid must have some
The Japanese special forces must cooperate with the action, otherwise the Japanese ordinary troops will not have the guts to enter the mountains casually!"
"If the Japanese special forces join the war, Battalion Commander Zhong may not be able to win. So I decided to let you go back and assist Battalion Commander Zhong in dealing with the Japanese special forces!"
"By the way, tell Battalion Commander Zhong that he has plenty of bullets and food in his hands, and he will take the Japanese as far into the mountains as possible. And he can't fight them head-on, nor let the Japanese stick to him!"
As a former member of the special operations brigade, what Li Wen longed for most was to fight against the Japanese special forces.
Without thinking about it, he promised: "Captain, please rest assured and promise to complete the task!"
Then he looked at Wang Ping with an embarrassed expression and hesitated to speak.
"If you have anything to say, just say it. You were one of the earliest special forces members with me. You know my character and don't like my subordinates to be hesitant!" Wang Ping replied angrily.
"I want to take three people with me from here, but if I can't, I can take two with me!"
"You've already taken your fancy! I'll give you all three of them. When you go back and find some good prospects, you'll ask Battalion Commander Zhong to come over, so we'll form a special operations team during the battle!"
