Looking at the backs of Xu Dalong and others, Zhao Gang said with emotion: "Dalong and the others always take the overall situation into consideration and are honest and honest people. Old Li, I have to admire your vision. You really found a good seedling."

Hearing this, Li Yunlong couldn't help but feel proud again.

He smiled and said: "Lao Zi has always judged people very accurately. I have long seen that this boy Xu Dalong is capable and upright."

Zhao Gang knew that he was like this, so he didn't bother to pay attention to him. He just smiled and stopped saying anything.

Zhang Dabiao curled his lips again but did not say anything.

Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang and Zhang Dabiao kept watching the backs of Xu Dalong and others until they drifted away and disappeared, then returned to the Independent Regiment.

The commander of the Japanese 108th Division, Fujiwara Konichi, led the defeated troops back to Yucheng. At this time, the 215th Brigade of the 108th Division had been completely destroyed, and the 216th Brigade also suffered heavy losses. The engineer regiment could not escape. 100 people and most of the main force of the artillery regiment were also lost. Now in Yucheng, Fujiwara Konichi has only six to seven thousand troops in total. This also includes auxiliary units such as the heavy baggage regiment.

Since the 108th Division entered the Shanxi battlefield, it has never encountered such a big setback. Fujiwara Konichi was in a very sad mood. This defeat made him even more sad than the last time his nephew died in battle.

The 108th Division originally had outstanding military exploits on the Shanxi battlefield. Although Fujiwara Konichi was a low-key man, he was born into a noble family and was born with a kind of arrogance. He always stood out among the Japanese first army.

Not to mention that other division commanders and brigade commanders were in awe of Fujiwara, even the commander of the First Army, Yoshio Shinozuka, was respectful to Fujiwara.

This time the 108th Division suffered such serious losses, which made him feel like he had lost all face.

He believed that those division commanders and brigade commanders with ordinary backgrounds, no matter whether they showed respect in front of him or not, would probably ridicule him behind his back.

Therefore, after the battle, Yoshio Shinozuka sent a telegram inviting Fujiwara to go to Taiyuan City to participate in a combat seminar. Fujiwara refused because of physical discomfort.

The Fujiwara family of Konichi Fujiwara has a strong influence in Japan, so the 108th Division also has great advantages in terms of soldiers and supplies.

Now that the 108th Division has suffered heavy losses, it will take a long time to expect the North China Front to replenish itself normally. Fujiwara simply sent a telegram to his cousin who served as the Minister of the Army at the Japanese base camp, asking him for special approval. The 108th Division was replenished.

Someone in the DPRK was easy to do, and Fujiwara Konichi's cousin quickly sent him a telegram, saying that a part of the troops and equipment would be transferred from Japan to supplement the 108th Division.

After receiving a positive reply from his cousin, Fujiwara Konichi felt better.

Fujiwara Konichi now knows that his nephew died at the hands of Xu Dalong's Mawushan guerrillas.

Now that the 215th brigade was completely destroyed, it was also related to the Mawushan guerrillas. He was full of hatred for Xu Dalong and the Mawushan guerrillas, and was determined to personally lead the entire division to the Mawushan base area immediately after the troops were replenished. Go to encircle and suppress Xu Dalong's Mawushan guerrillas.

Fujiwara Konichi knew that the Mawushan guerrillas now had chariot troops and a large number of cavalry troops. This time, when he requested supplements from his cousin who was the Minister of War, he also specially arranged a cavalry brigade and a considerable number of counterattack troops. Tank weapons are used specifically to deal with the Mawushan guerrillas.

Due to the lack of troops under his command, Fujiwara Kinichi decided to endure it for the time being, so he reduced his troops to Yucheng. The remaining troops were trained and would not carry out combat missions for the time being.

Unfortunately, just a few days after he returned to Yucheng, Xu Dalong and the Mawushan guerrillas came to his door.

The fifth brigade of Huang Xiejun was stationed in Taihe County, northwest of Yucheng. This morning, the combat duty room of the fifth brigade headquarters received a call from the logistics section of the Japanese 108th Division in the direction of Yucheng, saying that there was a Japanese army The motorcycle team and part of the cavalry were going to Taiyuan for business and stopped in Taihe County on the way. They wanted to have lunch with them at noon and asked the Fifth Brigade to receive them well.

The duty staff officer in the combat duty room of the fifth brigade hurriedly reported to the chief of staff, who then notified the logistics department of the fifth brigade to arrange a banquet and prepare for the reception.

Near noon, the Chief of Staff of the Fifth Brigade personally called the Japanese 108th Division in order to express their attention to the Japanese army and show their sincere attitude.

The call was dialed quickly, and the delicate voice of the female operator of the Japanese military switchboard came over the phone.

The chief of staff's Japanese proficiency was not bad, and he asked a female operator to receive a logistics lesson from the 108th Division.

Someone soon answered the call. The other party said he was Lieutenant Colonel Oshima, the head of the logistics department, and asked him what happened.

The chief of staff said respectfully: "Your Excellency, section chief, when will the motorcycle team you sent arrive specifically? We have prepared the reception in Taihe County. Please rest assured, section chief, and we will ensure that Taijun is satisfied."

The Japanese army's logistics section chief said impatiently: "Didn't I already inform you of the arrival time of the motorcycle team?"

Unexpectedly, the chief of staff flattered him and said with a smile: "I have received the notice and have already made preparations to better receive Taijun. I am just calling to ask if they can arrive on time?" Even if we can't arrive on time, we will wait and treat them warmly."

The head of the logistics section said noncommittally: "Okay then, just welcome me with all your heart."

After saying that, the other party hung up the phone.

The chief of staff rubbed his hot face against his cold butt, feeling a little unhappy. He scolded: "The Japanese are really not good people."

Having said that, he did not dare to offend the Japanese. In order to prevent the Japanese from finding fault, he called his adjutant and asked him to go to the logistics department in person to supervise their reception of the Japanese.

On a hillside outside Taihe County, Xu Dalong, Lin Xueying and others were sitting under a telephone pole. They were the ones who talked to the 5th Brigade of the Puppet Army today. The female operator was played by Lin Xueying, the one who made the call to the logistics section was Monk Wei, and the head of the logistics section was played by Xu Dalong.

The reason why Xu Dalong and others performed such a play was to complete the task of blocking the enemy's reinforcements.

After the underground party armed forces led by the brigade commander launched an attack on the Japanese independent mixed fourth brigade, the Japanese 108th Division in Yucheng would definitely go for reinforcements.

Although the 108th Division now only has a few thousand troops left, it is still a great force. Xu Dalong only has 1,200 men, so it will be very difficult to stop them. When the Japanese 108th Division goes to reinforce, it will definitely bring the 5th Brigade of the Huang Xiejun with it. The Japanese army plus the 6,000 troops of the 5th Brigade of the Huang Xiejun will make it even more difficult for Xu Dalong and others to block the attack.

In order to better complete the blocking mission, Xu Dalong decided to take a preemptive strike and defeat the enemy first.

Huang Xiejun's fifth brigade. The Fifth Brigade has a lot of troops, so they can only make it.

After discussion, Xu Dalong and others decided to disguise themselves as Japanese troops, catch the fifth brigade of the Huang Xie Army by surprise, and first destroy its command organization.
