The father of the sword is Kong Jie

the other side.

Lao Cheng, Lao Xu, Lao Wang, as well as Lao Pi and Brigadier Zhang's five-route mobile force jointly formed the mobile elite of the Eighth Route Army. Although in order to paralyze the judgment of the Japanese army, the external designation claimed to be the Iron Triangle Army.

But as the old saying goes, we have two shoulders to carry one head, so why should the Iron Triangle Army have to overwhelm us?

These are all elites, as if our fifth-line elites are really not as good as his Iron Triangle troops.

I think back when our 771st Regiment and 772nd Regiment were the two main regiments in the brigade, Kong Jie and Li Yunlong's teams had just been established, and they were not even a regular army!

The generals of the Eighth Route Army fought hard in the flames of war, and they have long developed a character that is not afraid of life or death, nor of heaven and earth.

So the five old comrades thought about it. Although our team is disguised externally this time and is called the Iron Triangle Army, we must also have our own designation internally.

We can't live in the shadow of Lao Kong, Lao Li, Lao Ding and others.

What's the name?

Old Xu was usually the most down-to-earth person and never stopped studying in private. At this time, he spoke: "The records in the Han Dynasty about the severe defeat of the Xiongnu - they have plowed their courts, swept their villages, and placed them in prefectures and counties.

The so-called leaving court and sweeping holes means completely destroying the enemy and achieving absolute victory in the war.

I think we might as well call it the Liting Army. This is much more domineering and louder than the Iron Triangle Army! "

Upon hearing this, Lao Chen, Lao Wang, Lao Pi, and Brigadier Zhang immediately clapped their hands and praised him, and immediately decided on this title.

After the war broke out, the first two armies of the Japanese army advanced from Weihai and Jinan respectively, but the mobile elites in the rear, the so-called jihadi army and armored troops did not appear.

Lao Cheng, Lao Xu and other mobile elites also hid in the base area, and the troops were never exposed.

Until the Japanese Shit Army and the 13th Division launched a pincer offensive with the support of the Armored Corps, preparing to destroy the Eighth Route Army base area and Qianchu Airport in Haiyang area in one fell swoop.

As soon as we entered the base area.

Lao Xu and Lao Cheng's Liting Army quickly dispatched and launched a thunderous offensive. With the help of the absolute advantage of sophisticated equipment, the offensive was overwhelming. The Japanese army was divided into multiple sections, and then was surrounded and annihilated. They suffered a heavy blow and were directly killed. Confused.

The designation of the entire team of the Eighth Route Army was revealed again - the elite helmeted soldiers of the Iron Triangle of the Eighth Route Army.

In fact, needless to say, the sophisticated equipment, fairly uniform standard steel helmets, and military boots almost frightened the Japanese troops fighting when they appeared.

The Japanese immediately realized that this was the most elite helmeted soldier of the Eighth Route Army.

This collision was purely a kick to the iron plate.

The Iron Triangle Steel Helmets have become too famous in recent years.

In the Japanese army, at least they are the absolute elite at the level of the emperor's personal guards.

The Japanese troops in North China have even reached a tacit understanding about this.

What's the tacit understanding?

Once you collide with the helmeted soldiers of the Eighth Route Army, it goes without saying that you should immediately request reinforcements from all walks of life.

Regardless of whether the battle is won or not, calling for reinforcements in advance is always safe.

If you move a little slower, you may not even be able to escape, but you will be completely wiped out by the elite helmeted soldiers of the Eighth Route Army. After all, there have been countless bloody lessons before.

Yamashita Tomofumi, Inoue Yoshisa, Akaka and others originally planned to launch a direct assault under the guidance of heavy artillery troops and minesweeper engineers in conjunction with armored troops to guide mechanized infantry.

As a result, the two armies were packed in and unable to support each other at all.

These eight-way steel-helmeted soldiers truly deserved their reputation, and their sophistication in equipment was simply disappointing.

All kinds of artillery fire were fired as soon as they met, as if they were free of money.

There are all kinds of armored vehicles, new modified tanks, assault artillery, and self-propelled artillery, all with rapid fire and tacit coordination.

The mobility and artillery advantages that the Japanese army thought they could rely on were instantly dwarfed by them.

Inside the headquarters, Old Devil Yamashita and Inoue screamed: "Why the hell did these damn steel-helmeted soldiers come to the Jiaodong Peninsula without saying a word?"

Then he cursed the head of the secret service as a fat bastard, and the information he gave was like shit.

Like a majestic mountain, heavy pressure rushed towards us. The Japanese army used this time to destroy the Eighth Route Army's mobile elites in the Jiaodong base area and the front exit airport. Multiple sections of the divided troops were severely beaten, and casualties spread rapidly.

For a time, telegrams for help were flying across the Jiaodong battlefield like snowflakes.

After identifying the elite helmeted soldiers of the Eighth Route Army who were facing them, the little devils, who were originally very powerful, seemed to be weakened by three points in an instant.

This is the strength of a force that has thoroughly established its reputation.

His momentum alone was enough to crush the enemy.

Looking at the Japanese invaders who were quickly defeated and fled, Captain Xu, who personally commanded at the front line, sighed with emotion: "This battle can go so smoothly, at least three-thirds of the credit is due to the reputation of the iron triangle steel helmet soldiers.

When will our Liting Army gain such a prestigious reputation? "

In the end, the main force of the south route army arranged by the old Japanese Okamura after special reinforcements fought hard for less than a week. Under the continuous oppressive attacks of the steel helmet soldiers flying the iron triangle flag all over the mountains and plains, the two surrounded troops collapsed one after another. In despair, The armored army also completely collapsed after launching a death charge.

Before this battle broke out, Okamura assured Yamashita and Inoue that there would be special aerial firepower reinforcements this time.

In addition, the teams of Yamashita and Inoue additionally strengthened the troops' field air defense capabilities at Okamura's request.

It's just that all these preparations completely failed after they completely kicked the iron plate of "Iron Triangle Helmeted Soldiers".

In the decisive battle between the two sides on the ground, the Japanese army's shit troops and armored troops were almost swept away by the mobile elite of the Liting Army. Their equipment was completely crushed, their tactics were inferior, and they also had no advantage in terms of strength. They were in the territory of the Eighth Route Army.

The time is right, the place is right, the people are all taken over by the elite of the Eighth Route Army, why are the little devils still fighting like this?

A dozen squadrons dispatched by the Japanese aviation force in a hurry were intercepted by a group of Eighth Route Army fighter jets mid-flight.

Although Kong Jie, the head of the Eighth Route Army's aviation unit, was thousands of miles away, when he issued the order, his words were extremely domineering: "As long as the Japanese navy does not use all its strength, in the inland areas, the era when the Japanese will have absolute air supremacy has long been over." It will never come back. From now on, whether the sky in the interior will be chaotic or not depends on our Eighth Route Air Force.

Including this battle in the Jiaodong area, even if a Japanese fighter plane flies over the heads of our soldiers.

Even if I, Kong Jie, am incompetent! "

Poor Yamashita and Inoue, seeing that the army was about to collapse, looked helplessly at the distant sky. They seemed to vaguely hear the roar of some fighter engines, but before they saw the shadow, it was over.

Soon after, when the troops of Yamashita and Inoue were in pieces under the impact of the Eighth Route Army's mobile elite, the original field air defense force basically collapsed.

On the other hand, a group of fighter planes roared quickly from the distant sky, but the artillery fire fell on the Japanese camp without hesitation. The Japanese army, which had completely lost its field air defense power, was massacred one-sidedly.

At this point, Yamashita and Inoue were completely in despair. Our own air fire reinforcements had not arrived, but the enemy's fighter planes had arrived!

Then, under the superior artillery fire, air support, and all-round offensive of elite ground troops, the main force of the Japanese army gradually lost its fighting spirit and organization.

The Japanese's completely divided troops were unable to break through the layers of defense lines set up by the Eighth Route Army along the way and rejoin.

The old Japanese Lieutenant Generals Inoue, Yamashita and Chilu of the joint command headquarters heard the continuous sound of artillery in their ears, and bad news of continuous defeats came one after another.

If the fight continues like this, the entire command headquarters will probably be taken away by the enemy, and they, the senior Japanese military officers, will also be completely captured alive.

"Baga, the information is misleading! Your Excellency, the Commander-in-Chief, is commanding too much!"

Lieutenant General Yamashita cursed angrily, but now it was too late to say anything. He was indeed a bloody soldier. At this final moment of life and death, he roared "Long Live the Emperor", and then led the headquarters and the last remaining defeated soldiers around to fight with Inoue. , Lieutenant General Chilu, together with Lieutenant General Chilu, launched a death charge against the attacking Eighth Route Army troops.

——There is no doubt that old comrades such as Lao Xu, Lao Chen, Lao Wang, etc. are very happy, and now there are three more general command knives.

With the death of Yamashita, Inoue, Chilu and other old Japanese soldiers, the general headquarters of the Japanese South Army was completely paralyzed, and the remaining troops were gradually eliminated under the siege of the Eighth Route Army's mobile elite.

Seeing that the situation was over, some Japanese soldiers, led by some officers at the grassroots level, actually chose to surrender directly to the Eighth Route Army.

After the news came out, it caused an uproar in China and Japan.

——The war continued into the later stages. These Japanese troops who were well-equipped, well-educated, and extremely powerful in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War had very few elites left. In addition, after invading China for so many years, many Japanese troops had already been captured in the security area. Corroded by a life of indulgence.

Even the initially firmer will to fight has now completely declined.

The soldiers of the Eighth Route Army wanted to capture some Japanese soldiers on the battlefield. It was no longer as difficult as it was in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War. Nowadays, even one prisoner is a large group. Not only the puppet soldiers are greedy for life and fear of death, but these little devils have also become cowardly.

In the direction of Jinan, after learning about the crisis in Yamashita and Inoue and receiving an emergency request for help, Tanaka and Hayashi Yoshitaro tried to launch a diversionary attack in an attempt to alleviate the crisis in Yamashita and Inoue, but unfortunately it had no effect.

Then, under the instructions of Okabe and Dohashi, in order to prevent Yamashita and Inoue's troops from being destroyed by the Eighth Route Army, the Eighth Route Army turned their troops around and brought the crisis to themselves.

Tianzhong and his party responded to the garrison in the northeastern Jiaodong area in Laiyang and Zhaoyuan, gradually evacuated to Pingdu, Weifang, and Gaomi areas, and stationed near the defense line of Jiaoji.

——Directly switched from offense to defense, and abandoned large areas of defense areas in counties outside the Jiaodong Military Region, stationed in major counties and transportation lines, and concentrated troops to defend.

At this point, destroying the Eighth Route Army's Jiaodong base area and destroying the Eighth Route Army's front exit airport are all nonsense. The most important thing now is to protect ourselves.

And the army on the west route retreated.

The pressure that came directly fell on the East Road army.

The army on the east road was surrounded by groups as expected.

The troops on the southern route, Yamashita and Inoue, were almost destroyed at this time.

Okamura was so anxious that even his limited airdrops were unable to enter the encirclement because he had no air superiority.

Finally, under the powerful offensive of the Eighth Route Army, the Japanese army on the east route ran out of ammunition and food, and could only disperse and break out. Basically, the entire army was annihilated.

In this way, it took less than half a month for the war in Jiaodong to begin.

The Japanese's mobile armies on the east and south roads were basically wiped out.

Okamura was so angry that after hearing the news, he fell ill with blood and was admitted to the hospital.

The thick fog was cleared, and the dawn of victory completely shone on the earth.

In the headquarters of the experimental area, Li Yunlong, who received the news, said excitedly: "Damn, this battle was so enjoyable! I think this battle alone can set back the military strength of the little devils by at least three years!"

"It's fun, it's really fun!" Kong Jie said: "This battle can be called the Battle of Northern Henan. Our Eighth Route Army took the lead. After winning a huge victory, we also achieved a great victory in the Jiaodong area. I think it can be called the Battle of Northern Henan." The battle in Jiaodong!

The end of this battle can basically mark the beginning of the Japanese army officially falling into a disadvantage in our Chinese battlefield.

The series of victories achieved by the Japanese in the battles of Henan, Hunan and Guangxi some time ago now seem to be nonsense. "

Ding Wei felt it was a pity: "In terms of combat effectiveness of the three-pronged army of the Japs, the east-route army and the main army of the south-route are definitely the top two.

This West Route Army was basically just a make-up. Who would have thought that after the other two armies were eliminated by us, the West Route Army coming from the direction of Jinan basically retained its main force and managed to escape.

It's a pity, it's really a pity. If all the three-pronged Japanese army can be killed, this time can even be called an annihilation-type battle, enough to be recorded as a classic case of siege and annihilation battles around the world. "

It was Tanaka's team that escaped.

Kong Jie was not surprised by this: "Japanese who dare to attack fiercely are actually not difficult to deal with and can be easily eliminated. However, it is these Japanese who have little fighting will and shrink back and act like turtles once they are beaten that are difficult to eliminate."

It turned out that Tanaka, under the guidance of Harada, sensed that the situation was not good and fled in advance, leaving everyone behind.

Even when assisting the local garrison to evacuate, he secretly made some business with the Eighth Route Army using the remaining supplies and made a lot of money.

The most unjust one was Numata, who was filled with rage and came to seek revenge from the Eighth Route Army. As a result, he was besieged by the Eighth Route Army for ten days. He only launched an offensive when he ran out of ammunition and food. In despair, he watched the weak and weak troops being completely annihilated and captured. He kept shouting that he was not convinced and wanted to have a samurai showdown with Kong Jie, the commander of the Iron Triangle Group of the Eighth Route Army.

Commander Xu laughed angrily at the old devil: "Keep your eyes open and take a closer look. We are the Eighth Route Army of the Shandong Military Region. We are just a ragtag group of second-rate combatants like you. To deal with you, we still need to use the elite of the Iron Triangle? That's not true." Killing a pig with a butcher's knife?

Are you looking for a duel with Kong Jie? Kong Jie is still thousands of miles away in the Taihang Military Region! "

Numata screamed, feeling that losing to Shandong's Tubal Road was a shame. If he lost to the Iron Triangle Army, he would have no problem.

This old devil was unwilling to admit that it was Shandong Tubal Road who defeated him.
