Bright Sword Military System

At 53:[-] in the morning, the imperial mechanized troops with a population of more than [-] were completely defeated.

To be precise, it should be wiped out, because there are not many survivors, and a large amount of equipment has fallen into the hands of the Eighth Route Army, especially the Badian Brigade... A considerable number of soldiers in the Badian Brigade left their motorcycles because they had no time to turn around and organize defenses. After the battle failed and the troops broke up, hundreds of sidecar motorcycles and more than a dozen armored vehicles were left intact on the battlefield, and even two Type 95 tanks were abandoned. Of course, they all fell into the hands of the Eighth Route Army and became New equipment for the mechanized troops of the Eighth Route Army.

At [-]:[-], the defense line of Laoyang Village was breached.

The defense line of Laoyang Village was originally impenetrable, surrounded by mountains on three sides and one side facing the outside. Under the management of Badian, a triple defense line and two barbed wire fences were laid on the outside side, separated by dense minefields.

Coupled with the firepower of the Badian mechanized troops, it can be said that no Eighth Route Army has the ability to open the gate of Laoyang Village.

However, under the Eighth Route Army's strategy of "leading the snake out of the hole", Badian's mechanized troops made the best of them, leaving only one logistics squadron stationed in Laoyang Village.

When the mechanized troops of a battalion of the Eighth Route Army rushed to Laoyang Village, the garrison even thought it was the imperial army returning from victory... If it weren’t for the sight of the half-track vehicles, they would probably have opened the barriers and shouted “Long live” to welcome the Eighth Route Army Into the village.

But it doesn't seem to make a difference.

Because the defense of Laoyang Village is based on the fact that there are garrisons in the city, that is, chariots, armored vehicles, and at least a thousand elites.

Now there is nothing but defense lines, bunkers, barbed wire, trenches, minefields, and a squadron of troops...

This is nothing to the mechanized troops of the Eighth Route Army.

The bunker is the problem of tanks facing each other and bombarding the perforations with their muzzles.

Minefields are blasted with shells and grenades.

The barbed wire was cut by the infantry, then tied with steel cables, hung on the two teams of half-track vehicles and pulled apart on both sides...

These are normal training subjects for mechanized units.

The combat goal of the mechanized troops is to quickly tear apart the enemy's line of defense. These are trivial things to them. They rushed into Laoyang Village and turned all the devils in a squadron inside into corpses.

The results are abundant.

Laoyang Village is the base of the devil's mechanized troops. There are so many bags, armored vehicles, accessories, fuel, and ammunition that the Eighth Route Army can't take them away.

The Eighth Route Army directly turned Laoyangcun into its own supply base. Whenever any unit ran out of fuel or ammunition, it would deliver goods from Laoyangcun.

At [-]:[-], the Eighth Route Army captured the railway station.

The supplies at the train station are even more numerous, and not only there are supplies but also a large number of cars... These cars are used by the devils to transport supplies to the battlefield. There are more than 200 vehicles in total, and they were seized by the Eighth Route Army before they could be withdrawn.

Then needless to say, the Eighth Route Army used these vehicles to load supplies to Yuncheng, such as compressed biscuits, rifles, ammunition and so on.

Although during this period the Eighth Route Army was no longer rare for devils' rifles and ammunition... In fact, this is not accurate. The most rare thing during the war was guns and ammunition, even though the Eighth Route Army was already able to produce Yingjiang's Spring Field rifles and ammunition.

But the production of Springfield rifles was far from enough to equip the entire army, and the ammunition was not enough.

Even if it is enough for the Eighth Route Army, isn't there still a large number of guerrillas waiting for equipment?

At [-]:[-], when the sky was getting brighter, the Eighth Route Army ran a few rounds of transportation back and forth, and then burned the train station and the supplies that were too late to take away.

Kono Shinta was going crazy looking at these battle reports.

Although Kono Shinta grew up with Hans, and his way of thinking is more Hans's habit, not the so-called "shame" and "apology" of the empire, but the Eighth Route Army's actions are undoubtedly slapping him in the face. : He helped the imperial army form mechanized units and guided and even commanded the imperial army to carry out mechanized warfare, but he, who claimed to be an expert in blitzkrieg in front of Neiji Okamura, was defeated by the Eighth Route Army time and time again!

It was understandable to be defeated last time, because there was a problem with the coordination of the imperial army itself.

But this time, the imperial army fought completely under his arrangement and with the participation of Hans's military adviser, especially the Eighth Route Army used "blitzkrieg" to destroy his mechanized troops that had not yet formed combat effectiveness. Repay the person with his own way", turning him, an expert, into a brick-and-mortar expert.

Neiji Okamura's expression was quite calm, and he was a little surprised.

This is not to say that he is indifferent to this loss. In fact, he is quite heartbroken. For Neiji Okamura, this is not just a question of failure or loss of supplies, but also a question of how to explain it to Tokyo.

But Neiji Okamura felt that this was normal, and this was what the Eighth Route Army should be like... Neiji Okamura was used to being beaten out of breath by the Eighth Route Army.

"Your Excellency, General!" Shinta Kono felt a little guilty when he saw Okamura Neiji's expression, shouldn't he be furious?

Kono Shinta wanted to explain something, but Okamura Neiji raised his hand to stop him.

"Kono-kun!" Neiji Okamura said, "Now you understand what kind of enemy you are facing, and you will get used to it in the future!"

"Xi... Habit?" Kono answered with too much difficulty. Is this normal?

What Kono really doesn't know is that this is indeed the norm, as it is in North China.

In the next second, Okamura Ningji's words came true.

While Shinta Kono was in a daze, a staff officer came in and reported: "Your Excellency, the 'Zero War' squadron we sent out has been defeated by the enemy, and only three survived!"

Neiji Okamura let out a "hmm".

This was already in his expectation, because he guessed that the Eighth Route Army would not reveal such a big flaw, and its mechanized troops actually had to wait until dawn before retreating... Isn't this clearly letting the imperial army's fighter planes bomb it?

Therefore, Neiji Okamura only sent a squadron of "Zero Fighters" to test, and strictly ordered to retreat immediately if the situation was found to be wrong.

But it was different in Kono Shinta's ears.

This is the "zero battle" of the imperial army!

As a consultant to Hans, he has of course heard of the "Zero Fighter" fighter, and knows that this is something that can look down on the Eagle Sauce fighter.

If in the past, the Eighth Route Army had the X1, it would not be surprising to win. After all, it used another air combat mode and caught the Imperial Air Force by surprise.

But now under his guidance, there is a new tactic against X1, and he was defeated by the Eighth Route Army again? !

How did they do that!
