Li Yunlong giggled, but no one paid attention at this time, because everyone's eyes fell on Ma Pingan.
Ma Ping'an has already finished drawing the military map and marked the intelligence he collected in a short period of time on the map one by one.
Duanwu frowned when he looked at the densely marked small characters and marching route.
He had received some information about the Japanese army from Zheng Yaoxian before, but at that time it was only a rough idea.
But on the contrary, what Ma Pingan learned was much more detailed.
Although it is impossible to say that it is all, the current distribution and approximate number of Japanese troops are marked on this map.
At this time, Ma Pingan was afraid that his markings were not clear enough, so he stood up and said: "Brother Dragon Boat Festival, I am too tired to look at the map. Let me repeat it to you so that you can have a general understanding."
Duanwu gestured: "Then you'll have a hard time."
Therefore, Ma Pingan explained in detail the deployment of Japanese troops from east to west.
The first thing Ma Pingan mentioned was Jinan. Ma Pingan said: "The headquarters of the Japanese Second Army is in Jinan. And this will serve as the combat command center of the Japanese army on the northern front, and all orders of the Japanese army will be issued from here.
It's just that the Japanese command center in Jinan is too tightly defended, otherwise we could take down their command center in one fell swoop.
Of course, this is unrealistic. Our underground party comrades lurking in Jinan do not have such strength in terms of number and equipment.
Today, the Japanese army in Jinan has about one infantry regiment, and there are more than 2,000 Japanese soldiers. Especially the little devil's detective team, they are all hardcore traitors. Some of our comrades fell into their hands.
Let’s not talk about this anymore, let’s continue talking about the distribution of the little devils.
The Japanese Second Army had a very large number of people. In addition to the above Jinan defense force, it also had two detachments under its jurisdiction. One is the Sakamoto detachment and the other is the Kunisaki detachment.
Each of these two detachments has three infantry regiments, plus an artillery regiment, baggage regiment, etc.
It was the Sakamoto detachment that deployed defenses on the front line of Tai'an. Except for one infantry brigade serving as a defensive force in Tai'an, the three infantry regiments under the Sakamoto detachment are all stationed in Jining, Pingyin, and Feicheng.
The little devil's defense on this front line includes the Royal Guards stationed in Surabaya Town, as well as the Royal Association Army drawn from various places, including local traitors, the total strength is probably no less than 40,000.
But this is just the Sakamoto detachment. There is also a Kunizaki detachment, they have just switched from the WF first line defense to the ZB first line defense. The leading troops of the Guoqi detachment have advanced to the vicinity of Laiwu, east of Tai'an, and are preparing to attack frontally as the main force.
The specific number of this unit is unknown, because they have been in motion and have also merged with many Imperial Army armies, but it is expected that the total strength of the Kunisaki detachment will not be less than that of the Sakamoto detachment.
But the most noteworthy thing is the Japanese 20th Division that landed in Qingdao. This is a Japanese combat force that we have never known.
In addition, there is also a Chaoxian division. This division has a very large number of people and should exceed the strength of a standing first-class division of the Japanese army.
They are now on the line from Qingdao to WF, and it is this Chaoxian division that takes over the original defense area of the Guoqi detachment.
Their vanguard has already approached Yishui County, and I guess their target will be LY. "
Having said this, Ma Ping'an took a sip of water and continued: "That's all we know now. The number of Japanese and puppet troops gathered from comrades from all over the country should be no less than 200,000. So this battle is Some were beaten."
"Damn it, there are so many little devils here."
Li Yunlong heard this and said, because there are too many imps, even if the 129th Division encounters them, they can only retreat.
Ding Wei also thought so. The Japs were coming fiercely, and the front-line troops in the Fifth Theater could only temporarily avoid the attack, but they could not stop the Japanese attack at all.
But at this moment, Duanwu asked: "Old Ma, two things. First, what kind of army is the Royal Guards in Surabaya Town? And second, I want information about your underground party. The department has been keeping an eye on the Japanese in Tai'an, Ningyang, Feicheng, Pingyin, and Surabaya. I want to know every move they make. And that Soviet guy - Marklov. He said he would get it for me. I ordered heavy equipment, but it hasn’t been cashed out yet. If it’s hard to get heavy equipment, just ask him to get me some that I can use. If I don’t have time to pick it up, you’ll represent me. It’s not a difficult matter. Bar?"
"Don't be embarrassed, don't be embarrassed."
Ma Pingan responded repeatedly, but he did not move at this time, because he needed to do all this intelligence work alone. After all, this is an issue about the safety of frontline comrades.
Although he didn't sleep all night for this reason, in order to fight the Japanese better, he could survive even if he didn't sleep for a week, let alone a whole night.
I just didn't expect that at this time, Li Yunlong used his crooked thinking again and said to Ma Ping'an: "Old Ma, do you still know the Soviets? So what, can you get some equipment for us, Old Li?"
Ma Pingan smiled and said: "Hahaha, I don't have that much face. I am cooperating with the Duanwu Brothers. And the Duanwu Brothers spend real money to buy equipment. Do you, Lao Li, have money?"
"Hey, you still have to spend money! This is a big deal."
Li Yunlong looked very regretful, thinking that the Soviets were giving away equipment for free. After all, the enemy of the enemy was his friend.
"hehe!"
Ma Ping'an laughed dryly, then took out a pamphlet from his arms and handed it to Duanwu and said, "Let's keep in touch through a single line."
"kindness!"
Duanwu responded, then put the pamphlet away, and then gave it to Lao Abacus. Ma Ping'an glanced at Lao Abacus and said nothing. Because he knew Lao Abacus' identity in the independent group very well. And on several occasions, Lao Abacus contacted him through a single line.
So when he saw that Lao Abacus had put away the code book, Ma Pingan said: "It's getting late now. I'll let the cooking team roll the noodles. Let's have noodles for lunch. How about it?"
Speaking of this, Ma Pingan said to Duanwu again: "Brother Duanwu, there really is nothing to entertain. Haha!"
Duanwu said: "Noodles are good, but now my independent group can't eat noodles. So, old horse, you have to be fast, these brothers are all waiting!"
Ma Ping'an cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Definitely, definitely, there will be news tonight at the latest, and it will definitely not delay brother's affairs."
Duanwu smiled and said: "I can rest assured that your old horse will do things. Whether we can cause a scene in Huaibei depends on your old horse."
"Hahaha!"
Ma Pingan laughed loudly, but at this moment, Li Yunlong and Ding Wei were both confused!
