The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

"Battalion Commander Huang commanded the assault battalion and won a big victory in Liuzhuang without a single soldier, and killed at least [-] Japanese puppet troops!" Zhang Xuelin reported as if he had eaten candied fruit, and his mouth had not been closed since he entered the door.

"It also said that the task of annihilating the enemy will be completed within two days, and the total strength of the Japanese and puppet troops will be reduced to less than [-]. Please ask the regiment headquarters to prepare for the decisive battle in advance and arrange the battlefield!"

"The assault battalion will find a way to bring them into the pocket formation, cooperate with the main force to gather and annihilate them, and eliminate the mopping forces in the middle."

"Give me the battle report!" Kong Jie said excitedly.

Just now, the two were still discussing whether Huang Yu could complete the task, but in an instant, the assault battalion sent all the good news...

Zhang Xuelin hurriedly handed over the battle report, and introduced casually: "There is no specific battle process written on it, only the battle report!"

Kong Jie shook his head and replied, "Xiao Huang was watching during the battle, so we don't need to be blind, I only look at the result of the battle.

While reading it, he felt emotional: "The battle report said that the assault battalion killed at least [-] Japanese puppet troops. Xiao Huang has always been conservative when reporting the results of the battle to us. Their real number of wiped out enemies must be more than [-], and it is likely to be more than [-]!"

"Chief of Staff, I fully agree with Xiao Huang's request to the regiment headquarters to decide the battle ahead of time!"

"The sooner we get rid of the mopping up troops in the middle, the less combat pressure the other anti-mopping up troops will have, and the less damage the Japanese and puppet troops will do to the base!"

"According to statistics, more than [-] villages in the base area have been burned to ashes by the Japanese and puppet troops!"

"If they stay in the base area for one more day, more than a dozen of our villages will be burned!"

"People in the base areas have also started to have some problems."

"The army moved them to the mountains in time, avoiding a large number of casualties... But the environment in the deep mountains and old forests is too harsh, and they must not be able to live permanently."

"The proportion of old, weak, women and children among the villagers is very high, and there will be no problem in a short period of time... I am worried that those people will hold on after a long time!"

"In the end, I didn't die in the hands of the Japanese and puppet soldiers, but fell in front of the disease!"

Li Wensheng immediately found a marked map and introduced: "I didn't know how long it would take for Xiao Huang to complete the mission of annihilating the enemy. The regiment headquarters selected a total of three decisive battlefields along the road!"

"If the battle is decided in advance, the first ambush battlefield is definitely the best!"

Kong Jie stared at the map for a minute before making a decision: "Then set it here..."

"According to the scheduled battle plan, Shen Quan commanded the first battalion to block and sweep the troops head-on, blocking them in the pocket formation..."

"The [-]th Battalion is responsible for outflanking..."

"The Sixth Battalion is censored, and the Guard Battalion is the reserve team..."

"The artillery battalion supports the battlefield at any time. If you can find an opportunity, try to cover the cavalry battalion to attack the Japanese artillery positions!"

"The devil brought a lot of heavy artillery and field artillery to sweep us. If some can be captured, the artillery battalion can be reorganized into a veritable heavy artillery battalion!"

"Immediately forward our decision to Xiao Huang, and let him lead the Japanese and puppet troops into the pocket!"

Taiyuan Japanese Army Headquarters...

Just before dawn, the chief of staff hurriedly found Shinozuka Yoshio.

"Your Excellency, Commander, there was an accident last night with the raiding force in the middle, and nearly a thousand troops were lost..."

"Specially sent a telegram asking for instructions, asking if the troops should continue to sweep the base of the Independence Regiment!"

"Thousands of people were lost in an accident... How is this possible... You are not mistaken..." Received the bad news early in the morning, Shinozuka Yoshio can imagine the mood, looking at the chief of staff with a face full of disbelief road.

"The telegram was sent by Ando himself, so there must be no problem!" The chief of staff replied.

Handing the electric board to Yoshio Shinozuka, he continued to report: "Last night, Liuzhuang, where they were stationed, was buried with a lot of explosives by the Eighth Route Army!"

"After the troops set up camp to rest, the Eighth Route Army suddenly detonated explosives..."

"These explosives weighed more than two thousand catties, and they exploded underground. They were extremely powerful!"

"With the explosion point as the center, all the garrisons within a radius of [-] to [-] meters were killed and injured..."

"The Eighth Route Army also specially buried those gunpowder in three threshing grounds, where the largest number of troops were stationed, so the troops lost nearly a thousand people in one battle!"

Yoshio Shinozuka finally accepted this cruel fact.

After receiving the telegram and reading it over and over twice, he put it down, looked up and asked, "How many troops are left in the raiding force in the middle... How many imperial troops and imperial association troops are there!"

"More than three thousand people!" The chief of staff replied.

"The Imperial Army accounts for [-]%, and the Imperial Association Army accounts for [-]%!"

Shinozuka Yoshio analyzed with a calm face: "They are very dangerous!"

"If the independent regiment gathers all the main forces to fight against them, there is a high chance that the mopping forces in the middle will be wiped out. Even if they are not wiped out, they will suffer heavy casualties and lose the ability to continue the mopping up!"

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly walked to the sand table, and asked while observing: "Where are the main forces of the independent regiment, and are there any signs of mopping up troops gathering in the middle!"

The chief of staff shook his head: "I haven't received any information on this yet!"

"The [-]st and [-]nd Battalion of the Independent Regiment is blocking our mopping up troops on the left, with a strength of more than [-] people, well-equipped, strong combat effectiveness, and abundant ammunition. It should not be a fake!"

"The [-]rd and [-]th Battalions of the Independent Regiment are blocking our right-hand sweeping troops. The situation is similar to that of the [-]st and [-]nd Battalions. It should be true!"

"The Assault Battalion and the Fifth Battalion blocked the mopping forces in the middle, showing the strongest combat effectiveness and the greatest results..."

"The gunpowder in Liuzhuang was buried by the Assault Battalion and the Fifth Battalion!"

"The cavalry battalion and the guard battalion have been active near Baipogou, and they are the reserve team of the independent regiment!"

"The Sixth Battalion is divided into four groups to meet the reinforcements sent by the New First Regiment and the New Second Regiment!"

"Although our blockade troops were flanked by the Eighth Route Army, they still held their positions under the cover of artillery and aircraft, repelling repeated attacks by the Eighth Route Army!"

"As of now, the main forces of the New First Regiment and the New Second Regiment are still blocked by us outside the base area of ​​the Independent Regiment. We are beyond our reach and cannot provide any help to the Independent Regiment!"

Shinozuka Yoshio's face suddenly became very serious, staring at the chief of staff and asked: "Is all the information you just said true?"

The chief of staff nodded and replied: "Dare to issue a military order in a humble position!"

"Yoxi..." The serious expression on Yoshio Shinozuka's face suddenly eased, and he let out a long breath, "As long as the main force of the independent regiment is not around the raiding troops in the middle, their safety will not be a problem!"

"Call Ando-kun back immediately: The main force of the independent regiment is scattered outside, and there is no strength to threaten their safety!"

"It is required that the sweeping troops in the middle road must take Baipogou within two days, and then continue to sweep, and then sweep the independent regiment base in five days to annihilate them!"

At ten o'clock in the morning of the next day, the Japanese and puppet troops who continued to mop up ran into the first blocking position of the day just two hours after they left.

When the Japanese and puppet troops attacked the blocking position as usual, Huang Yu was arranging combat tasks for the engineering company one kilometer away!
"Judging from the marching ranks of the Japanese army, there are more than [-] of them left..."

"As long as we kill more than two hundred Japanese and puppet troops, the task of annihilating the enemy entrusted to us by the regiment commander will be completed."

"I decided to give this task to the engineer company!"

"You set off immediately and rush directly to the third blocking position..."

"Buy gunpowder next to the road one kilometer in front of the blocking position, prepare at least five explosive points, and each explosive point is [-] meters apart..."

"It's still connected with a telephone line, and the detonator is detonated!"

"After the Japanese and puppet troops reached the third blocking position, they would definitely stop and attack like here..."

"We suddenly detonated the explosives, and the Japanese and puppet troops parked on the road must have suffered heavy casualties!"

"If you don't have enough gunpowder, use the explosives shot out from the Feilei Cannon instead... Don't be afraid of waste, try to complete the task of annihilating more than [-] Japanese and puppet troops in one attack..."

"Wei Dayong led a sudden company to protect the engineering company, and cooperated with the engineering company to bury gunpowder and lay telephone lines!"

"Other troops stay here and continue to harass the Japanese and puppet troops with guerrilla warfare, slowing down their marching speed!"

"When burying gunpowder, you must remember: don't bury it on the road!"

"The devil has a mine detector in his hand. Although he can't find the gunpowder, he can find the telephone line that detonated the gunpowder!"

"Bury gunpowder on the side of the road to avoid mine detectors and attack the Japanese puppet army!"

In the first two blocking positions, the main attacking force ended the battle with only a dozen casualties.

The gunshots that attacked the security forces no longer sounded.

The two consecutive good news made General Ando feel much better, and slowly walked out of the shadow of the bombing of the resident last night.

He felt that his luck was beginning to change.

Since the raid, all the good news received in the past few days is not as much as today!
At [-]:[-] in the afternoon, the sweeping troops were blocked halfway by the third blocking position.

He decided to take down the blocking position in front of him, and then stop and set up camp after walking two or three kilometers forward!
In order to avoid the recurrence of the tragedy last night, he specifically ordered the troops to camp in the wild and not to enter the village.

As long as the Eighth Route Army can't figure out where they want to camp, they can't plant gunpowder in advance and attack themselves.

"Rumble..."

Fierce artillery sounds soon sounded on the battlefield.

Except for the attacking troops holding rifles and quietly waiting for the order to attack, the other Japanese and puppet troops were all on standby, sitting on the road to rest, eating dry food,
Just when Ando Dazuo felt that the attack in front of him would be as smooth as before, the sound of "Boom..." exploded in his ears again.

"It's the Flying Thunder Cannon... The Eighth Route Army wants to repeat the old trick and use the Flying Thunder Cannon to attack our troops!" The adjutant was the first to make a judgment, looking anxiously at Ando Dazuo.

Colonel Ando didn't answer, but his face sank in an instant, and he frowned and replied, "The explosion just now wasn't a dynamite bag shot by a Feilei cannon!"

"The sound is more intense and powerful than explosives..."

"Immediately send someone to the back to check it out, hurry up!"

When he gave the order, Colonel Ando held the telescope in front of his eyes and did not put it down.

The more he looked, the more solemn his face became, and he analyzed in a heavy tone: "It seems a bit like the explosion of gunpowder buried in the ground..."

"Could it be that the Eighth Route Army wants to repeat the old trick, lay gunpowder on the road, and continue to use remote detonation to kill and injure our troops in large numbers and weaken our strength!"
