In Taiyuan, the headquarters of the Japanese First Army.
A report was delivered to the desk of Commander Yoshio Shinozuka.
It was the battle report that the Black Island Regiment was completely crushed and Qixian County was completely annihilated.
This report contains very little space about the overall destruction of the Black Island Regiment, because there are no more Black Island Regiment cavalry participating in this battle.
There are only a few sets of photos taken by the Yoshino team in Yelangyu, Jianshantsui and Dawanggou, and they are still black and white and blurry.
From the photos, you can only see the corpses of Japanese soldiers in pieces, and the pieces of meat that were beaten into pieces by machine guns.
The battle in Qixian County is more detailed, because the Japanese and puppet troops in the city exchanged fire with the Eighth Route Army, and some of them survived.
This report was written by the military police captain Takeda Nobutada himself. After Takeda Nobutada finished writing the report, he was ordered to commit seppuku to express his gratitude to the emperor.
The entire Kuroshima Regiment and the Eighth Route Army captured the county town. Someone needs to take the blame for the food, supplies and arms being taken away by the Eighth Route Army. Kuroshima Morita has been crushed, so of course Takeda Nobutada will take the blame.
After reading the report, Yoshio Shinozuka picked up the phone on the table, quickly shook the handle, and then put it to his ear.
"Moxi Moxi, please ask Colonel Yamamoto to come to my office."
In most cases, Yoshio Shinozuka rarely discussed matters with the combat staff and chief of staff Kusuyama Hideyoshi.
Instead, he went directly to Kazuki Yamamoto, who was two ranks lower than himself.
Since the defeat of the secret service team in Yangcun, Yoshio Shinozuka suspected that there were spies in the First Army Headquarters, and became even more alienated from several close staff members.
About ten minutes later, Kazuki Yamamoto, dressed in military uniform, walked into the commander's office carrying the colonel's command sword.
When he came to the desk, he clicked his feet together, paused and said, "General, are you looking for me?"
Yoshio Shinozuka put down the report in his hand, raised his head and said, "Yamamoto-kun, how is the selection of special team members going?"
"Currently, the elites selected from various departments of the First Army have arrived in Taiyuan!" Yamamoto Kazuki said solemnly, "I will conduct intensive training for them. Only after undergoing the most brutal training and fighting can they be qualified to become real special forces. Each of them will All special forces are warriors from hell, so it will take time for the special forces to develop combat effectiveness!"
"Time waits for no one." Yoshio Shinozuka said, "You must restore the combat effectiveness of the special agent team as soon as possible and make contributions to His Majesty the Emperor!"
Yamamoto Kazuki paused and said: "Hi!"
Yoshio Shinozuka asked: "So, do you have any clues in investigating the last intelligence leak?"
"This person is hiding very deep. He must be at the headquarters. Don't worry, General, I will definitely find him out!"
Yamamoto Kazuki's eyes flashed with sharpness. As for the leak of intelligence on the last raid on the Eighth Route Headquarters, he had always suspected that a staff member of the headquarters was responsible for it, but he had no evidence. Even the fishing plan he personally formulated and implemented to deliberately leak intelligence was not known. The spy could not be found.
"Yamamoto-kun, look at this. This is the report sent by Yoshino Yoshino." Shinozuka Yoshio handed the report on the table to Yamamoto Kazuki.
Yamamoto Kazuki took the report and read it.
About ten minutes later, Yamamoto Kazuki finished reading and put it back on the table with a thoughtful look on his face.
"Yamamoto-kun, what did you find?" Yoshio Shinozuka asked with a look on his face.
"General, the Eighth Route Army seems to have used special operations tactics in the attack on Qixian County..." Yamamoto Kazuki's eyes narrowed.
Regarding the Kuroshima United, there are only a few photos and a few words, but Yamamoto Kazuki can't figure out the reason.
However, after the battle in Qixian County, Yamamoto Kazuki was keenly aware of the problem.
"Nani?" Yoshio Shinozuka said in shock, "Special operations? How can a Tobali who is as poor as a beggar know how to do special operations?"
"Yamamoto-kun, do you mean that the small group of troops that suddenly appeared to occupy the south city wall are special forces of the Eighth Route Army?"
"Yes, General!" Kazuki Yamamoto said, "I had doubts that day. Now that I see this report, I can be sure that the Eighth Route Army used special operations."
"Moreover, Li Yunlong's defense team, which fought against the special forces in Yangcun, obviously received guidance from experts who are proficient in special operations."
"During this battle in Qixian County, a small group of elite troops from the Eighth Route Army disguised themselves as imperial cavalry and pretended to be cavalry from the Black Island Regiment."
"And the garrison outside the county town must not have dared to stop it, which is why this small group of elite troops from the Eighth Route Army easily occupied the southern city wall of Qixian County."
"This small group of elite troops from the Eighth Route Army all used automatic firepower and had extremely accurate marksmanship, which played a key role in turning the tide of the battle."
"Even if this Eighth Route Army is not a real special forces, it is a typical special operation, and they have initially possessed the characteristics of a special forces."
When Yoshio Shinozuka heard this, his expression became uncertain.
The appearance of a special forces unit among the Eighth Route Army is not good news.
Although the Yamamoto special agent team was defeated in Yangcun, Yoshio Shinozuka never doubted the combat level of the special agent team.
Yamamoto's special agent team simulated a beheading operation at the First Army Headquarters, and the target was Yoshio Shinozuka.
The person responsible for protecting Shinozuka Yoshio was the most elite unit of the First Army, but the special agent team easily beheaded him.
If the Eighth Route Army really has special forces like the Yamamoto Special Forces, then the number one target of the Eighth Route Special Forces is probably their own heads.
A worried look appeared on Yoshio Shinozuka's face, he might have to be careful everywhere in the future.
"Don't worry, General." Kazuki Yamamoto said, "This is just my guess."
"Even if the Eighth Route Army has such a special force, there is no need to worry too much."
"The use of special forces should be at the strategic level. The Eighth Route Army using this level of troops for siege operations is simply an insult to special operations."
"The Eighth Route Army doesn't know how to use special forces at all. What your Excellency, General, should really worry about."
"The weapons used by the Eighth Route Army in this battle in Qixian County seem to be very sophisticated. In addition to automatic weapons, there are also 92 infantry guns and 20mm machine guns."
"Infantry guns and automatic weapons may have been captured, but how could the Eighth Route Army be equipped with 20mm machine guns?"
Machine guns are very rare heavy weapons for the Japanese army, such as the Type 98 machine gun, which is only equipped in small quantities by field troops and airports for air defense.
Yoshio Shinozuka waved his hand and said: "The Eighth Route Army is indeed equipped with automatic weapons. Judging from reports and intelligence, only a small group of elite troops are equipped with them. This is not surprising."
"It's understandable that the Eighth Route Army has infantry artillery."
"After all, the Imperial Army has been fighting against the Eighth Route Army for so many years. Although not many infantry guns have been captured, there are still a few."
"As for the 20mm machine guns, most of them are from Fu Zuoyi supporting the Eighth Route Army. There are probably only a few of them, so Mr. Yamamoto shouldn't make a fuss."
Yamamoto Kazuki paused and said: "Hi!"
…
386 Brigade Headquarters.
The transportation team led by Zhang Dabiao, the first company commander of the new regiment, arrived outside the brigade headquarters.
The soldiers were unloading the goods, and boxes of beautifully packaged ammunition boxes were piled in the open space in front of the brigade headquarters.
Many brigade personnel heard the commotion and came to watch.
This time the new regiment transported 400,000 rounds of ammunition, nearly 300 ammunition boxes, and dispatched all mule carts and 100 military horses.
The brigade commander and deputy brigade commander Han also walked out of the brigade headquarters.
Zhang Dabiao saluted the brigade commander and deputy brigade commander Han, pointing to the ammunition boxes and 12 machine guns.
Then he walked to the moving vehicle and lifted the parachute cloth covering it, revealing two twin-mounted machine cannons.
With a smile, Zhang Dabiao said: "400,000 rounds of ammunition, 12 machine guns, and 3,000 rounds of 20mm machine gun shells."
"Brigadier Commander, Deputy Brigadier Han, the regimental commander asked me to say hello to you."
There was an uproar all around, and the eyes of all the brigade staff suddenly widened to the point where they almost fell out.
The brigade commander walked quickly to the machine gun, looked at the machine gun on the mule cart, and smiled so hard that he couldn't close his mouth.
Then he ordered people to quickly lift the white cloth on the mule carts. There were six mule carts in total, and each mule cart was loaded with two 20mm machine guns.
Four of the machine guns are twin-mounted, with two 1.4-meter-long barrels, drums that can hold 60 rounds of artillery shells, and a curved sight in the middle.
No matter from which angle you look at it, this 20mm machine gun is full of violent aesthetics and is a great weapon against little devils.
"The new regiment will make a fortune by attacking the county this time!"
"Tsk, tsk, the two machine guns at the division headquarters don't look that good."
"With 400,000 rounds of ammunition and 12 machine guns, our 386th Brigade is now rich!"
"No, adding in the 200,000 rounds of ammunition delivered by Political Commissar Zhao the day before yesterday, the new regiment handed over a total of 600,000 rounds of ammunition!"
“Captain Li’s ideological consciousness is really high!”
Several combat staff officers from the brigade headquarters were whispering there.
Only the brigade commander and deputy brigadier Han present knew the origin of these weapons.
It should be the same as those previous heavy weapons, coming from the mysterious patriotic man named Chen.
After unloading the goods, Zhang Dabiao led the transportation team back to Yangcun.
The next day, brigade headquarters.
The brigade commander and Deputy Brigadier Han were discussing whether to set up a machine gun battalion.
Ding ding ding——
The phone on the table rang, and the brigade commander picked it up casually: "Hello, this is the 386th Brigade."
The teacher's laughing voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Chen Geng, I congratulate you on getting rich."
"Commander, how can we get rich? I, Chen Geng, am just a pauper." The brigade commander felt nervous and said hurriedly, "I am so poor that I am almost begging for food."
Oh no, no, I usually congratulate Li Yunlong on getting rich, but this time I was congratulated by the teacher on getting rich.
"Can this be hidden from my eyes?" The teacher smiled and said: "I heard recently that you defeated Li Yunlong's Qiu Feng and became a rich man. Now you, the 386 Brigade, are extremely rich."
"Don't hide anything. Tell the truth. How much benefit did you gain from Li Yunlong this time?"
The brigade commander had no choice but to say truthfully: "Commander, we really don't have much, just 600,000 rounds of ammunition, 350 horses, and more than 600 rifles and cavalry."
"That's all?" the division commander asked, "But how did I hear that there are more than a dozen 20mm machine guns?"
"Division commander, look at my memory." Seeing that he couldn't hide it, the brigade commander said helplessly, "Yes, there seem to be 12 machine guns. I plan to form a machine gun battalion."
"Brother Shen!"
"Um!"
When Shen Changqing walks on the road, whenever he meets someone he knows, he will say hello or nod to each other.
But no matter who it is.
There was no unnecessary expression on everyone's face, as if they were indifferent to everything.
To this.
Shen Changqing has become accustomed to it.
Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, an organization that maintains the stability of the Qin Dynasty. Its main responsibility is to kill monsters and monsters. Of course, there are also some other side jobs.
It can be said.
Everyone in the Demon Suppression Division has a lot of blood on their hands.
When a person is used to seeing life and death, he will become indifferent to many things.
When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but he got used to it over time.
The Demon-Suppressing Division is huge.
Those who can stay in the Demon Suppressing Division are all powerful masters, or those who have the potential to become masters.
Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.
Among them, the Demon Suppressor Division is divided into two professions, one is the Guardian Envoy and the other is the Demon Slayer.
Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Department starts from the lowest level as a demon slayer.
Then he will be promoted step by step, and he is expected to eventually become a guardian envoy.
Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level among the demon slayers.
Possessing the memory of a previous life.
He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.
It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of a loft.
Unlike other places in the Demon Suppressing Division that were full of chills, the attic here seemed to stand out from the crowd, showing a different kind of tranquility in the bloody Demon Suppressing Division.
At this time, the attic door was open, and occasionally people came in and out.
Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment before stepping in.
Enter the attic.
The environment changes in vain.
The fragrance of ink mixed with the faint smell of blood hit his face, making him frown instinctively, but then relaxed it quickly.
There is almost no way to cleanse away the smell of blood on everyone in the Demon-Suppressing Division.
