I really came here to fight against Japan

Brother Jiu, how many troops from Li Yunlong's Eighth Route Army participated in the battle?"

Brother Ren Jiu: "It was Li Yunlong's First Rapid Reaction Brigade that annihilated the Japanese cavalry brigade.

In addition to the troops left behind in their base, there must be at least 6,000 to 8,000 troops participating in the battle this time.

Otherwise, considering the Japs' cavalry, at least half of them would have escaped."

This statement also made the commander-in-chief of the Second War Zone feel much more at ease.

For him, as long as no one is around, he can continue to be the King of Shanxi.

The commander of the war zone saw a document in Ren Jiuge's hand and took it away.

"Brother Jiu, what is this?"

The theater commander opened the document and saw a lot of words written on it.

He read it out: "The list of the Eighth Route Army's recovered strongholds? What is this?"

Looking at the long list of place names, he threw the list back to Brother Ren Jiu as if it was too hot.

"No, no, Brother Jiu, the Eighth Route Army is now at its peak.

I don’t want to get involved in the Japanese territory they conquered.”

This was not the case two years ago, when the Eighth Route Army was penniless and could pick peaches whenever they wanted.

The Eighth Route Army is now strong and powerful. Although he didn't say it, it doesn't mean that he doesn't know it.

Of course, he had no intention of reporting this matter to the temporary capital.

Anyway, why should the attendants' room in the secondary capital get what I can't get?

He was preparing to set a trap for the attendant room in the secondary capital.

Ren Jiuge said: "Don't refuse, why should we refuse?

We have mobilized more than 100,000 people, so it is only right that we charge them some hard work fees.

If we don't occupy these territories, the elders and fellow villagers in Shanxi will think that we have not contributed.

Besides, it would not be in line with our style if we don’t take advantage of the Eighth Route Army.

Once we take over these recovered territories, we will have a legitimate reason to fight, and the people in the temporary capital will not be suspicious."

The commander of the Second War Zone laughed and said, "Then I won't be polite, but these territories are a bit too much."

Brother Ren Jiu: "Commander, it won't do if there are not many. We have so many military leaders here.

Even if we don't share some of the benefits, we can't shut them up."

These more than twenty recovered strongholds were all captured by the guerrilla divisions.

The food in the stronghold was given to the people, and the weapons and ammunition were given to the Eighth Route Army.

Only the corpses of the devils and a small amount of captured spoils were left to the national army.

You have to know that at that time, if you wanted to kill a Japanese soldier, you needed three to five lives.

Now, in the strongholds left by the guerrilla division for the national army, the least that is left is the corpses of a squad of Japanese devils.

What are these corpses of the devils? They are all real war achievements!

If we calculate it based on a ratio of one to five, and fourteen Japanese soldiers died, would that mean seventy of my soldiers would have been “killed”?

In addition to a large amount of death pension, it can also go into your own pocket.

It can also smooth over the bad debts of drawing a salary without working, so why not do it?

After a while, a chart of the distribution of military merits in the Second War Zone was distributed.

Commander-in-Chief: "These territories have already been allocated, so don't be picky.

The territory has been vacated for you, you can send your own people to occupy it.

The battle results of this form have been written, but the battle process is up to you to polish.

Remember, you have to write truthfully, don't be too exaggerated, hahahaha!"

Looking at the results of the battle above, the number of corpses of those little Japanese devils is enough to make these generals excited.

Some military leaders obtained more corpses of Japanese soldiers than their troops killed in a year.

Even the Military Control Commission's special forces tasked with keeping an eye on the guerrilla division were assigned the smallest artillery tower.

Following the suggestion of the theater commander-in-chief, the director of the Military Control Commission found Brother Ren Jiu with tears of gratitude.

They repeatedly expressed that their Shanxi station would remember the great kindness of Brother Jiu.

In the future, please ask Brother Jiu to arrange someone to write the content of their monthly reports to the temporary capital.

He just sent the message according to the manuscript and said he would never delete or change a single word.

Now in the combat conference hall of the Second War Zone, there is a rare atmosphere of peace and harmony.

Even General Wei's eyes softened when he looked at the commander-in-chief of the Second War Zone.

The war room of the temporary capital's attendant room was brightly lit, and everyone was passing around a document.

It was a secret report about the Eighth Route Army sent back by the Shanxi Military Control Station.

"According to our Shanxi Military Control Station, the telecommunications personnel learned this through deciphering the secret telegrams of the Eighth Route Army.

At nine o'clock this morning, Li Yunlong's troops of the Eighth Route Army buried a large number of mines in a narrow area.

After luring the Japanese troops into the minefield, they surrounded and annihilated the Japanese First Cavalry Brigade, a total of more than 1,600 people.

In this battle, the Japanese Lieutenant General and Brigade Commander Gong Jiji Juteng was killed.

Also killed at the same time were a large number of Japanese officers, all of whom were descendants of high-ranking officials on the Japanese island.

After this battle, Li Yunlong's Brigade of the Eighth Route Army suffered heavy losses, with only one regiment of troops left, which still had some combat power.

When this unit passed through the Huting stronghold, the Imperial Army in the stronghold mutinied.

They worked together to trick the Japanese in the stronghold out of the fortifications.

In the open space between the two trenches, all the Japanese soldiers were shot dead using the heavy machine guns on the stronghold walls.

Then at eight o'clock in the evening, he sent a plain text telegram to Yoshio Shinozuka in Taiyuan.

They wanted to use the bodies of these Japanese officers to exchange for the prisoners in Taiyuan Prison.

At the same time, all the miners of Dongshan Coal Mine were also exchanged."

Defense Minister: "Everyone has read the intelligence sent back by the Military Intelligence Bureau. Please share your opinions!"

The Minister of Finance said: "This Japanese lieutenant general Gong Jiji is just a second-generation rich man. How did he become the brigade commander?"

The Military Control Commission boss said: "We have already found out their details through Shanghai.

They are a group of young masters sent out by large and small Japanese families to gild their reputations.

If they do not participate in the command of the troops, this cavalry will still be combat-effective.

If they gave the cavalry rash orders, it would not be surprising if the entire army was wiped out.

Moreover, by the time they arrived at the ambush point, they were already a defeated force.

They first appeared on the grasslands around Chahar.

It just so happened that they ran into General Huo Jiaqiang's cavalry division on its way to wipe out the Japanese.

After this battle, General Huo suffered little loss, and only more than a thousand people were left in Gong Jiji's cavalry brigade.

I heard that all their heavy weapons were lost to Huo Jiaqiang's cavalry.

It is said that the Japanese cavalry that the Eighth Route Army encountered still had two to three hundred men among them, all of whom were unarmed baggage soldiers.

The Minister of Finance said: "I was wondering, where did these local guerrillas get such great abilities?

It turns out that the Eighth Route Army ran into a group of stray dogs of the Japanese devils. "

As he spoke, the disdain in the corner of his mouth was already evident.

The big boss of the Military Control Commission nodded in agreement after hearing this.

But in his heart, he didn't think so.

The National Army also encountered similar problems during the battle with the Japanese invaders.

But I have never heard of any army that can achieve such a record of total annihilation.

According to the time reported in the secret report, the battle will not exceed an hour.

It is impossible to kill so many Japanese devils relying solely on landmines.

The report also mentioned that the Eighth Route Army used a lot of machine guns.

It is not scary that the Eighth Route Army has many machine guns. What is scary is that they have a reserve of bullets that they are not afraid of consuming.
