"Territory? What the hell kind of territory? My side is so big, it can't accommodate his hundreds of people?"
In the small building of the regiment headquarters, Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang sat looking at each other. The square table in front of them was filled with pork head meat, peanuts, chicken feet and other meals. There were also several empty bottles of Fenjiu lying scattered nearby.
At the right time, Li Yunlong's old face turned red, his expression was confused, and he complained to the other party.
To be fair, when Zhao Gang first came to the New Regiment, Li Yunlong looked down on this arrogant and weak scholar. However, because he was a great intellectual who graduated from Yenching University and was the front man for the strong troops of the New Regiment, he did not deliberately exclude him. The other party even considered him as a mascot.
After getting along with each other these days, Li Yunlong felt more and more that this political commissar was a perfect match for him, especially when the new regiment was ordered to go out of the city to reinforce the Western Front troops after the National Defense Forces completely annihilated the Sakata Regiment. Guy, he killed three Japs with three shots from 200 meters away. Old Li couldn't help but clap his hands in admiration!
This is also the third sharpshooter he discovered after Xizi and his younger brother Li Yunfeng!
As a result, the two officially started to contact each other, and soon they became inseparable.
Zhao Gang himself also became Li Yunlong...
"Man...he is Fengzi. He is a golden dragon, but he is a thing in the pond. It turns into a dragon when it encounters wind and rain! You...you old Li Gen...you can't fucking control him!"
"Can't you suppress it? Hey! Old Zhao, you are such a fool. You haven't seen it before, but I... Hey! Those are bones! Not meat! Old Zhao, spit it out! I don't believe you when I say you are a scholar. This is the amount of alcohol you can drink! Hahahaha! Drunk!"
After that, he will take away the other party's chopsticks.
Hearing this, Zhao Gang turned a deaf ear and pretended to be calm: "Ganggang! I still don't know that those are bones? You... you!! Hey! Lao Li, you should take care of your brother! It's been almost a day since he left! No! I know where I’m causing trouble for you right now!”
After saying that, he picked up a chicken paw that had been chewed up and put it into his mouth.
"Why don't you take care of him! I'll take care of you first, are you causing trouble? He only has a few hundred people, how much trouble can he cause?"
After finishing speaking, he raised his hand towards the other party.
……………
As the saying goes, some people are happy and some are sad!
Just when Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang were enjoying themselves, Yoshio Shinozuka, who was at the Taiyuan First Army Headquarters, was frowning and thinking about something.
Days of tedious work caused constant pain in his diseased teeth, causing his right jaw to visibly swell and protrude.
Since the Bantian Regiment was completely wiped out by the National Defense Forces and built the Jingguan less than half a month ago, it has set off the anti-Japanese wave in all parts of North China to the greatest extent, and at the same time indirectly affected the stalemate in the Taierzhuang Battle at that time.
As a last resort, the North China Front transferred two infantrymen, one cavalry and one artillery unit from Shinozuka Yoshio's First Army, making a total of four regiments southward for reinforcements.
This made the First Army, which was already stretched thin due to the sudden rise of the Chinese Defense Forces, suddenly worse. However, the order to the top had no choice but to be carried out. In the end, it had to pull out the Second Division responsible for Taiyuan City Defense to go south for support.
Today, in this city of Taiyuan with a population of 300,000, the First Army only has two regiments, the 5th and 8th, and a mixed brigade of the North China Security Army that only dares to bully the people. The total strength is about 13,000. up and down.
On the surface, 13,000 versus 300,000 troops are adequate!
But in fact, these 13,000 people are not only responsible for the urban defense of Taiyuan, the capital city of Shanxi Province, but also responsible for the stability maintenance of its seven counties, more than 430 natural villages, and nearly one million people in its surroundings. work, and there are also key areas such as adjacent coal mines, factories, and overseas Chinese areas that need to send heavy troops.
Based on this calculation, how can two alliances be enough? Not to mention, there are still a bunch of Chinese troops watching eagerly around them. Taking advantage of the great victory of the Chinese Defense Forces half a month ago, they are attacking from all sides and expanding their troops crazily. Every day, there are reports of defeat like snowflakes in the hands of Yoshio Shinozuka.
Fortunately, the Chinese Defense Force, which he regarded as a serious concern and top enemy, was not among them. After Sakata Nobutetsu's defeat of Pianguan, Shinozuka Yoshio immediately asked the intelligence department to open up an intelligence route for Li Yunfeng, specifically responsible for collecting information. Intelligence and troop dynamics regarding the Chinese Defense Forces.
In the past half month, the defense forces have been quite peaceful and have not made the slightest move to take the initiative.
As for the other Central Army, Shanxi-Sui Army, etc., they are just suffering from scabies! When the Battle of Taierzhuang ended and the large forces returned to Shanxi, Yoshio Shinozuka was confident that they would be able to deal with them within ten days.
"The top priority is the Chinese Defense Forces! Two months, give me another two months, and once the Taierzhuang front line is victorious, I will personally lead the second division to teach Li Yunfeng! If I don't chop off his head, I will die in peace! "
Yoshio Shinozuka muttered to himself with his eyes firm and his cheeks covered.
"Tong! Tong! Tong! Tong! Tong!"
At the right time, there was a burst of gunfire outside the window.
Yoshio Shinozuka then walked straight to the window, looked around, and shouted out the door:
"Where to have sex?"
When he was young, the adjutant was sweating profusely and rushed into the room in confusion: "Your Excellency, Commander...! The city defense force called! The Taiyuan city wall was shelled. According to his estimate, the opponent has at least five 155mm howitzers!"
Hearing this, Yoshio Shinozuka frowned and looked uncertain.
As a senior general at the army level, the army he led had never been defeated before Li Yunfeng. He was the only one who took the initiative to attack others. So far, no one has taken the initiative to attack him!
Even the Chinese Defense Force is no exception. In his eyes, no matter how powerful Li Yunfeng's team of several hundred people is, it can only serve as a defensive force. The initiative in the war has always been in the hands of his first army!
But this situation was broken for the first time. He was angry and disgusted, but he was not very anxious.
In the past half month, all the cats and dogs have been greatly expanding their strength, but there are not many armies that can be equipped with 155 howitzers. At a glance, there are only the Central Army, the Shanxi-Sui Army, and perhaps the National Defense Force!
Now, Li Yunfeng's hundreds of people are under the nose of the intelligence department. If there is a troop movement, they will definitely notice it in advance!
As for the Jinsui Army, I heard that a huge sum of money was recently paid to the national defense forces, and they were unable to spare the troops to actively provoke Taiyuan.
Only the Central Army was probably making a feint attack to contain the First Army and prevent it from moving south to support the battle in Taierzhuang.
Thinking of this, Yoshio Shinozuka's expression softened a bit, and he waved his hands feebly: "It's a feint attack! Just let the city defense force send a brigade to drive it away!"
"Hi!"
The adjutant took the order and left, and then he sat back down, exhausted both mentally and physically, and ignored the bombardment.
For a long time, the sound of artillery continued. Yoshio Shinozuka frowned: "When did the Central Army become so brave? They have been firing artillery for so long and they still don't retreat!"
Suspicious, he stood up from his seat and looked out the window from time to time.
At the right time, the intelligence chief came in with a panicked expression: "Your Excellency, Commander, it has been found out that the Chinese army that is bombarding our station in Taiyuan at this moment is the Chinese Defense Force!"
After saying this, Yoshio Shinozuka's expression changed, his pupils dilated tightly, he shuddered involuntarily, and then he remembered something and shouted quickly: "Quick! Call the troops who left the city to return to the city! It's too late, your life is gone!"
