"Captain, there is a situation!" The reconnaissance company commander hurriedly into the front enemy command center, very anxious to report.

"We lurked near the battlefield to report that before dark, a large number of national-savior troops arrived at the battlefield, but did not immediately launch an attack on the Japanese and puppet troops, and they all hid around the battlefield and remained motionless!"

After hearing this, the regiment commander couldn't help but sigh: "Captain Chen's besieged by the Japanese and puppet troops is indeed a strategy... The National Salvation Army is very good at plotting, so that the Chief of Staff is used as bait to attract all the Japanese and puppet troops in Yangquan to the battlefield, so that they can defeat all the enemies in one battle, which is amazing..."

"Since the main force of the National Salvation Army has reached the battlefield, as I expected, they will fight the Japanese and puppet troops tonight, and win or lose in one battle."

"Let the troops retreat immediately. The battle situation there is decided. The Japanese and puppet troops will definitely lose. There is no need to continue to investigate."

After the reconnaissance company commander left, the regiment commander's eyes also retracted from the map.

But his frowning brows did not soothe, because it was their turn to go on stage after the Japanese and puppet troops in Yangquan were killed. He decided to make preparations in advance and have a big show with the military exercise of saving the country, and then exchange more medicines from the war zone.

After the Independent Regiment leaves Yangquan and opens to the new base, there will definitely be a lot of battles waiting for it.

There will be casualties in wars, and the wounded cannot do without medicines. As the leader of the regiment, you must reserve a sufficient amount of medicines before the action.

"Report to the commander of the regiment, the National Rescue Army sent a secret telegram!" The radio operator in the regiment suddenly came over and reported in a low voice.

In addition to him, the leader of the regiment headquarters knew about the telegram exchange between the National Salvation Army and the Eighth Route Army. In addition, the regiment commander repeatedly told him to do a good job of confidentiality, so it was difficult for the radio operator to be not cautious.

After confirming that there was no one around the commander, the radio operator seized the opportunity and came over.

The regiment commander thought that there was something to cooperate with the National Salvation Army now, so he quickly received the telegram, looked at three lines at a glance, and quickly browsed the contents inside.

He laughed after watching it.

He didn't know if the proposal in the telegram was something that the National Salvation Army wanted to cooperate with him, but for the Independent Regiment, this proposal could bring great benefits to the troops.

Order on the spot: "Notify all battalion company commanders to arrive here for a meeting within ten minutes. No one can be absent or late..."

"Send someone to contact the political commissar and ask him to immediately organize more than 200 transport vehicles and at least 2,000 guerrillas and young people to rush to Yangquan County, and ask him to lead the team in person, and the deputy regiment commander stayed in the base area and prepare to take over a large number of weapons, ammunition and food. Our independent group is about to make a fortune!"

"In my name, I sent a telegram to the Shouyang Independent Regiment, asking them to organize at least one battalion of troops and one hundred transport vehicles to set off immediately, march quickly to Yangquan County to report to me, and there are good things waiting for them, the faster the better!"

Since last night, the battalion commanders of the Independent Regiment have been particularly distressed.

After the cavalry of the National Salvation Army broke through the Japanese and puppet troops' defense line, they did not stop at all and continued to fight towards the hinterland of the enemy-occupied area.

They could only follow the cavalry and pick up what was left. For an ambitious and fighting officer, this kind of battle was the most afflicting one.

What really makes them feel aggrieved is still behind.

After the troops followed the cavalry and took the Japanese and puppet troops' positions, they thought they could continue to attack and took the opportunity to enter the enemy-occupied area.

Although there were cavalry assaults in front, the enemy-occupied area was so large that many fish that had escaped the net were definitely not killed by the cavalry. As long as the troops entered the enemy-occupied area, even if they could not eat the meat, they could drink two sips of soup.

But the leader didn't give them this opportunity at all.

As soon as the battle of the Japanese and puppet troops in the defensive positions ended, the regiment commander issued an order to stop the attack and establish a defense line on the spot. Isn’t this let them hide in the position and be like turtles?

Watching the National Salvation Army galloping on the battlefield in the enemy-occupied area, eliminating one Japanese and puppet army after another, but huddling in the trenches to dig fortifications, it was even more affliction than following the cavalry to pick up Yang Luoer.

Suddenly, he received an order from the regiment commander to hold an emergency meeting. The battalion commander, who was full of grievance, subconsciously thought that the troops were going to fight, and they ran faster than the other. In less than eight minutes, more than a dozen people rushed to the front enemy command center.

"You're all anxious!" the commander asked with a smile.

The first battalion commander knew the regiment commander best. When he saw the expression on his face, he knew that there was something good waiting for everyone. He quickly asked: "Control Commander, is there a war to fight? We have been digging a trench here for a day, and our hands are itchy. The soldiers were also screaming in a hurry. As long as you give orders, I can take it down for you in Yangquan County!"

"Captain, give the order! We can't wait!" The remaining battalion company commanders stood up and agreed.

The leader directly replied: "You guessed it right, there is indeed a big battle waiting for everyone!"

"Where to fight?" Several battalion commanders almost jumped up in excitement, staring at the regiment commander without moving, all of them were eager to try, and they all wanted to snatch the main attacker when the regiment commander said the mission.

The regiment commander looked at the first battalion commander and replied: "You are right just now. The target we are going to attack this time is Yangquan County."

"I just received information that the Japanese and puppet troops stationed in Yangquan County were less than 400, of which 300 were puppet troops in a battalion, and less than 100 Japanese were their military police."

"After less than 400 Japanese and puppet troops were scattered into four directions of the county town, there was no even a hundred people in each direction. Even if we didn't have heavy weapons, we could break through the city defense fortifications and enter the county town in a very short time."

"We happen to have four battalions. I will strengthen four mortars for each battalion, two direct guns, and march quickly outside the city within three hours. At about 11 o'clock in the evening, the troops divided into four groups to attack Yangquan County at the same time. No matter whether the main attack or feint attack is the first one, whoever enters the county will be the first to achieve the title."

"I also received another piece of information. In order to deal with the National Salvation Army, the Japanese did not enter and transferred a large number of puppet troops from other places in Shanxi, and also transferred a large amount of supplies, weapons and ammunition."

"Except for the weapons and ammunition that have been distributed to the troops, all the remaining weapons, ammunition and materials are present in Yangquan County. It is estimated that the amount of 8,000 troops in two months was stored in the food. If it can be seized, it will be enough for our independent regiment to eat for half a year."

"There are countless ammunitions. In addition to three to four thousand shells of various caliber, there are more than 500,000 bullets of various caliber, and more than 20,000 grenades and grenades!"

Because of being a neighbor with the National Salvation Army, the Yangquan Independent Regiment's ammunition supply is much better than other Eighth Route Army units.

When going to the battlefield, ordinary soldiers can get twenty bullets, veterans can get forty rounds, and sharpshooters can get one hundred rounds.

But compared with the Japanese, this little ammunition is not enough for them to stuff their teeth.

If the battle lasts for a long time and the ammunition is not enough to end the battle, in the end, you have to fight with the Japanese and puppet troops and fight with the Japanese and puppet troops with the flesh and blood of the soldiers.

If the amount of ammunition in the hands of the soldiers can be doubled, they will not only further reduce casualties in the army, but will also be more confident when they go to the battlefield to fight the Japanese.

As soon as we heard that at least 500,000 bullets had been stored in Yangquan County, everyone's eyes began to shine, and they wanted to kill them now.

On the battlefield south of Yangquan City, Chen Zhengyu was busy preparing for the next breakthrough.

He was all mounted by the mountain cannons, infantry cannons, large-caliber mortars, and ordinary mortars that he had never dared to use during the day.

The shells brought into the encirclement were also taken out, and the gunner squatted beside the cannon, ready to fire at any time.

The secret service camps that had been hiding in the traffic trench during the day all emerged, hiding in the trench closest to the encirclement of the Japanese and puppet troops.

The remaining light machine guns of the Punishment Guard and the Second Battalion were all equipped in their hands, with more than 60 armies, which could be used to break through and attack the Japanese and puppet troops.

Chen Zhengyu's eyes kept floating back and forth between the watch and the battlefield. As soon as the attack time came, he was looking forward to order: "All artillery fired, all the artillery shells we brought were exhausted, and the secret service battalion was ready for assault..."

"Woo woo woo woo woo..." As soon as the order was released, the scream of shells passing through the sky sounded above everyone's heads, very harsh...

"Boom..." He looked up and saw clusters of orange-red fireballs rising from the Japanese and puppet troops' positions more than 400 meters away in front.

In the splashing flames, many unexpected Japanese and puppet troops were blown away and turned into corpses when they landed on the ground.

The captain of the Central Secretariat has not yet rested at the front command of the Japanese and puppet army.

Surrounding the National Salvation Army and not giving them any chance to break through. This is the death order given to him by the convoy captain.

If the task cannot be completed or if there is any accident during the execution, as the commander-in-chief of all the front-line troops, he will be unlucky and will definitely be the first to be sent to the military court.

Under the tremendous pressure, he couldn't even sleep.

Standing next to the battlefield layout map drawn by my subordinates, deducing my own layout over and over again to check for omissions and fill in the gaps...

The outside of the tent was very quiet, and there was no sound except the sound of soldiers patrolling the footsteps.

So he heard the sound of Chen Zhengyu's breakout guns, grabbed the telescope on the table and rushed outside the tent.

The local command center was more than 400 meters away from the shelling. With the help of the telescope, Nakasa clearly saw that the encirclement he had worked hard to build was torn to pieces in the artillery fire, and gritted his teeth with hatred.

Fortunately, he was mentally prepared for this problem.

While observing, I ordered: "Immediately order all mobile troops within one kilometer of the breakout point to reinforce the battlefield. Be sure to kill the national rescue army's breakthrough troops back!"

The National Rescue Army has artillery, and there are quite a few.

The encirclement composed of just one line of defense will definitely not trap them.

So Zhongzuo retreated and looked for the second best. A small number of troops surrounded the national rescue army based on the defense line and monitored them. The main force formed more than a dozen mobile troops outside the encirclement, specifically used to fill the gaps exploded by the national military artillery fire, and thus blocked their attacking troops.

Judging from the current situation: his layout is the best.

The National Salvation Army's breakthrough artillery fire was too fierce. If all the troops were concentrated on the defense line, no more troops would be enough to explode.

Now the main force is active behind the defense line, and the threat of artillery fire to them is almost zero.

No matter which direction the National Salvation Army finally breaks through, they can kill them in time and block the gap.
Chapter completed!
