Check in from the bright sword

"The 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army, Chu Yunfei's troops, this guy doesn't care too much."

"Everyone knows that Heyuan County is already a piece of fat on the lips of our independent group."

"But this Chu Yunfei just dared to peck and snatch the piece of fat we are about to eat."

"When did our independent group suffer such a loss? Since Chu Yunfei dared to take the tiger's mouth, he should have the consciousness to be bitten by the tiger!"

"I didn't say anything, kill Gou Ri's 358 regiment!"

"Fight the 358th regiment?" Zhang Dabiao and the other four battalion commanders looked at each other.

Apparently, this result was somewhat beyond their expectations. They originally thought that the regiment leader summoned the whole regiment to fight devils, but it turned out that he wanted to fight the 358th regiment of the Jinsui Army.

Zhang Dabiao persuaded: "Commander, this is destroying the anti-Japanese united front, should you think about it again?"

"Didn't you hear that just now?" Li Yunlong stared and said sharply, "It was Chu Yunfei who broke the rules first and provoked the friction first. We are self-defense! Self-defense!"

Zhang Dabiao stopped talking.

Li Yunlong said again: "Now I order that the 1st Battalion blockade the east gate of Heyuan County, the 2nd Battalion blockade the west gate of Heyuan County, the 3rd Battalion blockade the north gate of Heyuan County, and the 4th Battalion blockade the south gate of Heyuan County."

"There is no distinction between the four battalions, they are all the main attack!"

"Within one day, Heyuan County must be captured!"

"Eat two battalions of the 358th regiment!"

"Yes!"

Dagushan, the headquarters of the 358th regiment of the Jinsui Army.

The war room of the regiment headquarters was already full of voices.

The ringing of the telephone in the communications office and the beeping of sending and receiving telegrams rang together.

From time to time, communications staff members came out of the telecommunications office one by one, and handed over the latest battle reports to the combat staff officers in the war room, and then reflected them on the sand table through the hands of the combat staff officers.

Seeing more and more small blue triangular flags on the sand table, Chu Yunfei's complexion sank little by little.

Fang Ligong also felt a little unbelievable, and said in a deep voice: "Didn't Li Yunlong's independent regiment only have more than 3000 people when he participated in the Taiyuan Battle?"

"After breaking out from Taiyuan, there were only more than 1000 people left."

"How did the independent group expand to so many people in less than a year?"

"From the current situation, there are more than 50 infantry companies with numbers!"

"According to an infantry company with 120 people, 50 companies would have a full 6000 people!"

"120 people?" Chu Yunfei snorted twice, and said again, "Brother Li Gong, you really don't know much about Li Yunlong. How could a company of his troops have only 120 people?"

"Not only 120 people?" Fang Ligong asked a very stupid question, "How many people will there be?"

Chu Yunfei said in a deep voice: "Even if it is a conservative estimate, there will be more than 200 people, and there may even be more than 300 people!"

"A company with more than 300 people? Is that still a company?" Fang Ligong said dumbfounded, "That's already a battalion!"

"You can understand it that way, then it's not a company, it's a battalion!" Chu Yunfei said with a dark face, "That is to say, Li Yunlong's independent regiment now has more than 50 infantry battalions!"

"This does not include his artillery and cavalry."

Fang Ligong said in disbelief: "Then there must be no more than 15000 people?"

"15000 people are conservative." Chu Yunfei said, "If I'm not wrong, the current strength of the Independence Regiment should be close to 18000!"

"My God." Fang Ligong gasped, and said in a deep voice, "The speed at which the troops are expanding is really terrifying. If things go on like this, how can we do it?"

Chu Yunfei said: "But fortunately, the equipment of the Eighth Route Army can't keep up. Otherwise, I'm afraid it will really become a serious problem for the party-state!"

"Oh, that's right." Fang Ligong said, "Fortunately, the Eighth Route Army is extremely poorly equipped."

Chu Yunfei said again: "Pass my order, the 1st Battalion, the 3rd Battalion and the 4th Battalion will deploy from the front and attack in the direction of Heyuan County, and the Shanpao Battalion will follow up!"

Speaking of this meal, Chu Yunfei said again: "Just take this opportunity to try the depth of the independent group!"

Fang Ligong said: "Students, it's good to test the depth of the independent group, but I'm afraid we have to hold back, we can't let the independent group figure out our reality."

"I know that." Chu Yunfei said, "Order the battalions, especially the 2nd Battalion and the Field Artillery Battalion, to hold back when fighting fire. There is no need to save ammunition, but you can have reservations if the firepower is dense."

"Also, don't have any reservations when fighting hand-to-hand."

"It is not allowed to stab with a bayonet, but it is allowed to smash it with a gun. I will be responsible if it is smashed to death!"

"In terms of tactics, don't expose our principles of firepower use to the independent regiment."

"It is very likely that one day in the future, our 358th regiment will meet with the independent regiment on the battlefield. I don't want our enemies to know our ways like the back of their hands."

Chapter 456 Passing the Message

In a blink of an eye, the time has come to the next day.

Ryoichi Yamamoto rushed into the war room excitedly and reported to Inoue Sadae: "Division commander, the 60th Infantry Brigade, the 69th Cavalry Regiment, the 69th Mountain Artillery Regiment and the 69th Independent Tank Squadron have all assembled. , just wait for your order from the head of the division to attack and advance in the direction of Heyuan County!"

"Yoxi!" Inoue Zhenwei nodded happily, and said again, "Then what's the latest news in the direction of Heyuan County?"

"There is no new news yet." Ryoichi Yamamoto shook his head, and continued, "Because the cavalry unit of the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army has implemented a battlefield interception around Heyuan County, it is difficult for our intelligence personnel to pass through their blockade. Send the information in time!"

"Baga!" Inoue Zhenwei said angrily, "Why didn't you ask for the support of aviation scouts?"

Ryoichi Yamamoto: "A request has been sent to the aviation scouts, but you also know, commander, that almost all the aviation forces of the empire have been transferred to the Pacific battlefield. The 3rd Flying Regiment has long been an empty shell, so the commander It is hard to say whether the Ministry can send aviation reconnaissance troops over to assist in the reconnaissance."

"Damn it!" Inoue Zhenwei twitched violently twice, and didn't say anything more.

The consumption of the Pacific War is too great, it is frantically devouring the empire's insufficient war materials and limited aviation and army forces.

Up to now, no matter how optimistic people are, they dare not clamor like before that the Japanese army can defeat the United States and win the final victory of the Pacific War.

Anyone with a little sense can see that with the defeat of the Midway naval battle, it is already a high probability that the Japanese army will lose the Pacific War.

The only suspense is, can Japan reach a truce with the US military in a decent way?

Thinking of this, Inoue Zhenwei felt an inexplicable irritability, because it was out of his control.

But fortunately, the situation in Northwest Shanxi is within his control, and he continued immediately: "Let the intelligence department find a way to contact the intelligence personnel inside, and we must send the information!"

"We must accurately grasp the fighting situation in Heyuan County!"

"So that we can make a timely and accurate response! So as not to miss the opportunity!"
