Seeing that it was past eight o'clock, but the North China Front Army Command still hadn't responded, Yoshio Iwamatsu began to lose his composure, and asked Inoue, the head of the communications section, "Mr. Inoue, go to the communications team to have a look."

Yasushi Inoue frowned and said, "Your Excellency, Commander, I just asked about it five minutes ago."

"Hasn't it been 5 minutes?" Yoshio Iwamatsu said angrily, "Go and see again."

"Hai." Yasushi Inoue had no choice but to walk into the communication team next door. Mizuhara Takuya and other officers gave Iwamatsu Yoshio a sympathetic look, as if looking at a drowning man struggling desperately in the water.

Except for Yoshio Iwamatsu himself, everyone else has actually seen his results.

Or, Yoshio Iwamatsu has already seen his own result, but he just doesn't want to accept his fate.

A moment later, Yasushi Inoue came out from the communications team, actually holding a telegram in his hand.

Immediately, Yoshio Iwamatsu grabbed the telegram like a drowning man grasping at a straw, and asked anxiously, "Is this the reply from the Front Army Command? Has Your Excellency the General agreed to call the [-]th Division for emergency reinforcements?"

Inoue Yasushi remained silent, but just looked at Yoshio Iwamatsu with pity.

Yoshio Iwamatsu quickly saw the content of the telegram clearly. It was not a reply from the Front Army Command, but an inquiry telegram from the Prime Minister and Minister of War in Tokyo, asking him to immediately explain the ins and outs of the Taiyuan incident.

Seeing this, Yoshio Iwamatsu immediately deflated like a deflated ball, and it was all over!

After a long while, Yoshio Iwamatsu said to the adjutant Kuroda Goro: "Kuroda-kun, where is my sword?"

"Hai." Goro Kuroda took a step forward, holding Yoshio Iwamatsu's general sword with both hands, and handed it over.

Yoshio Iwamatsu took the general sword, walked into the tea ceremony room next door with a miserable expression, knelt down on the tatami, then took out a sweat towel and began to carefully wipe the sword.

……

After eight o'clock, the indiscriminate bombing of the inner city of Taiyuan by the Japanese air force finally ended.

When the last Type [-] land-based long-range attack aircraft disappeared into the clouds in the distance, the Eighth Route Army, guerrillas, and civilian husbands hiding in the houses, shops, and various buildings outside the city of Taiyuan came out one after another.

Li Yunlong, Ding Wei, Kong Jie, Wang Ye and others also returned to the former enemy headquarters in Shejitan one after another.

"Damn, the little devil's aviation unit is too hateful." Kong Jie scolded, "When we have our own aviation unit, we must show the little devil's aviation unit how powerful it is."

"Look at your beauty, return to aviation." Li Yunlong scolded disdainfully, "You boy, let's build an armored force first."

Hearing this, Kong Jie's face collapsed, and he cursed angrily: "Li Yunlong, I know you have an armored company, but you don't have to talk about it all day long."

After a pause, he said again: "Isn't it just an armored company? I will get one sooner or later."

"It's just you? Dreaming." Li Yunlong sneered, "Get some motorcycles first, then we'll talk about it."

Li Yunlong and Kong Jie were arguing there, but Ding Wei had already picked up the phone in the headquarters.

"Hello, please connect me with the Yuci [-]nd Regiment." Ding Wei said to the switchboard operator, and after the operator received the signal, he said, "Hello, old Cheng? I'm Ding Wei."

However, there was only a beeping blind tone on the opposite side, and the line was blocked.

"Damn, correspondent?" Ding Wei hung up the phone and scolded, "Notify the telephone team to check the line."

The correspondent was asked to inform the telephone team to check the telephone line in the direction of Yuci County. Ding Wei wanted to call Yaotou Village again, and this time he finally got through.

Ding Wei said: "Da Zhuang? What's the situation with you?"

Immediately, the voice of the first battalion commander Ge Dazhuang came from the opposite side: "Commander, everything is normal here in Yaotou Village, except that a few ghosts fled nearby before dawn, and I don't know if they escaped from Taiyuan."

Ding Wei immediately became vigilant: "How many devils are there? Have you stopped this group of devils?"

"About one or two hundred of them." Ge Dazhuang said, "Because it was dark at that time, and the devils came and broke out separately, so only a part of them were intercepted, and a few devils escaped while it was dark."

Ding Wei hummed and said again: "Da Zhuang, your task now is to continue to strengthen the fortifications, and be ready to stop the devil reinforcements from Yangquan County at any time."

"Yes." Ge Dazhuang suddenly agreed.

"Regiment leader, don't worry, as long as our battalion is here, the devils don't even think about crossing Yaotou Village!"

"Okay, thank you." After Ding Wei hung up the phone, he said to Kong Jie, "Old Kong, I'm still not at ease. How about you bring two battalions to Yuci County to support Lao Cheng?"

Although Taiyuan has been taken, the combat supplies have also been preserved.

However, it will take time to transfer combat materials, factory equipment, and even liquidate the Japanese and puppet assets in Taiyuan City. The most conservative estimate will take at least three to five days, and it is best to fight for half a month.

Therefore, the current combat mission has changed from capturing Taiyuan to ensuring the safety of Taiyuan.

Of course, neither Ding Wei, Li Yunlong, nor the brigade commander and the head of the headquarters thought of defending Taiyuan forever.

What the Eighth Route Army wanted was to hold Taiyuan for three to five days, preferably for half a month, until all the materials in the city were transferred to Northwest Shanxi or the Taiyue base.

This requirement is actually not high, and it can be achieved.

There are no strong enemies in the direction of Anhua and Yangquan. It is enough to have the first battalion of the independent regiment and the first battalion of the new regiment stationed in Niuwang Village and Yaotou Village respectively.

But Yuci County is a hidden danger.

Although the [-]nd Regiment stationed in Yuci County is a veteran main regiment of the Eighth Route Army, Cheng Shifa was also an old Red Army member of the same period as Li Yunlong, Ding Wei, and Kong Jie. What they faced was the main force of the Japanese First Army from the direction of Yushe County.

If the three main divisions of the First Army recklessly counterattacked Taiyuan,

It is obviously impossible to stop Cheng Shifa's [-] regiment alone.

Kong Jie was also very clear about Ding Wei's worries, and immediately said: "Okay, I will take the second battalion and the third battalion to Yuci County to join Lao Cheng."

As soon as Kong Jie left with the second and third battalions of the New Second Regiment, the brigade commander's telegram arrived.

"Old Ding, whose telegram is it?" Li Yunlong asked nervously, "Could it be the telegram from the brigade commander?"

"What do you think?" Ding Wei rolled his eyes and said angrily, "Whose telegram can it be at this time?"

"Too bad." Li Yunlong's face collapsed in an instant, and he said anxiously, "Isn't it another congratulation for us getting rich?"

"That's right, congratulations on getting rich." Ding Wei said and handed the telegram to Li Yunlong, "You can read it yourself."

Li Yunlong received the telegram and read it, his face turned green, and he said anxiously: "I knew it, I knew the brigade commander would definitely come here, alas, this is really unpredictable."

Ding Wei said: "Then what do you mean, will you give it?"

"Is it okay if I don't give it?" Li Yunlong lamented, "The first-rank official crushes people to death."

"Okay, since you agree, then I won't ask Lao Kong's opinion. Even if he objects, it's one vote to two, and the objection is invalid." Ding Wei nodded and said, "Then some materials are not needed. It is so troublesome to transport it to Northwest Shanxi first, and then transfer to Taiyue Military Region, so let’s send it directly to Taiyue Military Region.”

"Alas." Li Yunlong lamented again, "But having said that, at least the brigade commander left dozens of mountain artillery rifles this time, and the three of us can finally form an artillery battalion."

Ding Wei smiled and said: "It can be considered that I didn't make a trip."

Hearing this, Wang Yezhi said, but I ran away, and I didn't catch any hair.

It stands to reason that the First Army Command should have at least two generals. In addition to the lieutenant general Yoshio Iwamatsu, there should be a major general chief of staff, but he didn't get any of them.

Wang Ye was secretly annoyed when a ding sounded in his ear.

"Ding! Yoshio Iwamatsu, commander of the First Army stationed in Shanxi, commits seppuku and commits suicide, and rewards him with a golden treasure chest!"

"Hey!" Wang Ye couldn't help but let out a sigh, this is a bit unexpected, or is there a treasure chest left behind?

Chapter 464 Massive Supplies

Wang Ye's cry "huh,

It immediately attracted the attention of Ding Wei and Li Yunlong.

Li Yunlong said: "Xiao Wang, do you have a different opinion?"

Wang Ye sighed and said, "I have no disagreement. I just want to say that with the number of artillery we have, three artillery battalions are more than enough."

"Really?" Ding Wei said, "Is the quantity really enough?"

Ding Wei really hasn't carefully counted how many artillery pieces there are in Northwest Shanxi.

王野道:“丁团长我给你算一下,咱们晋西北原先就有12门75mm口径野炮,这次从太原缴获了18门75mm口径的山炮、18门70mm口径的九二步兵炮,以及6门37mm口径的战防炮,此外还有12门81mm的迫击炮。”

Ding Wei said: "We originally had six 6 infantry artillery."

"Oh yes." Wang Ye said, "That's even more of a problem."

After a pause, Wang Ye continued: "Twelve 12 field guns, 75 for each family, combined to form a field artillery company, and 4 18 mountain guns, 75 for each family, just formed a standard mountain artillery company."

"Eighteen ninety-two infantry guns, six for each family, just formed an infantry battery."

"As for the 12 81 mortars, there is no need to form separate artillery units and distribute them to the infantry battalions."

"There are also 6 37 battle anti-aircraft guns, 2 for each family, which happened to be organized into a battle defense gun platoon and incorporated into the field artillery company. Because the mobility of the 75 field guns and the 37 battle anti-aircraft guns is relatively poor, they are just used to defend the house. "

"When we go out to fight in the future, we will only carry the mountain artillery company and the infantry artillery company."

Speaking of this meal, Wang Ye said again: "This can not only ensure mobility, but also ensure firepower. I can't guarantee anything else, but I am afraid that there is no stronghold in Shanxi that we can't take down, even if it is a county town. If there is no more than one regiment of devils guarding it, it is just a piece of fat on our lips."

"Haha!" Li Yunlong and Ding Wei laughed out loud when they heard this.

Because of being robbed by the brigade commander, Li Yunlong was originally in a bad mood.

But after what Wang Ye said, Li Yunlong's mood immediately changed from cloudy to sunny.

"Old Ding!" Li Yunlong patted Ding Wei on the shoulder vigorously, and said excitedly, "The situation in Northwest Shanxi is completely different now. The devils don't want to threaten our base in the future. We are the only ones who will fight back." Beat them too!"

Hearing this, Wang Yexin said that you are thinking too much, the situation in Northwest Shanxi may face a more severe test.

Unless Okamura Ningji, the old devil, intends to lie down, he will never watch the development of Northwest Shanxi.

Because the benefits they gained from the Taiyuan Battle, especially the seized machinery and equipment, once they are transported back to Northwest Shanxi and the factory is built and put into production, it will really threaten the devils in North China!

Among other things, as long as they are allowed to build power plants, steel plants, and bullet factories and put them into operation, the Eighth Route Army in Shanxi and even North China will never be short of bullets. Sparrow warfare at this stage has evolved into mobile warfare and even large corps warfare.

If this situation really arises, the tens of 10 soldiers of the North China Front Army alone will not be able to handle it.

Therefore, it is completely foreseeable that the Japanese army will counterattack frantically in a short time, and the strength of this counterattack will definitely exceed imagination.

But there is no need to tell Li Yunlong these words for the time being.

Just let Li Yunlong maintain his good mood for a while longer.

However, Li Yunlong's good mood lasted only a few seconds.

Because he quickly remembered the bad news that Chu Yunfei copied his old nest.

At that moment Li Yunlong said with a dark face: "Old Ding, when can we go back to Northwest Shanxi?"

"Lao Li, why are you in such a hurry?" Ding Wei said angrily, "The materials and machinery have not been transported away yet, so how could we just leave?"

"I'm not in a hurry to go back and teach Chu Yunfei a lesson." Li Yunlong said angrily, "When I return to Northwest Shanxi, the first thing I have to deal with is Chu Yunfei's only brigade!"

"Old Li, I support you this time."

Ding Wei said: "Not only Chu Yunfei, but also Liang Gang."

"The principle of our Eighth Route Army is that people don't attack me, I don't attack people, if people attack me, I will attack people."

"Chu Yunfei and Liang Gang sent troops to rob Heyuan County and Fu'an County while our main force was away. If we don't avenge our revenge, then how can we hang out in this three-acre land in Northwest Shanxi?"

"But Lao Li, I must remind you of one thing."

Speaking of this meal, Ding Wei said again: "There is still a difference between fighting the Jinsui Army and the Central Army and fighting the devils. We don't have to have any scruples when fighting the devils, but fighting the Jinsui Army and the Central Army is still different. We have to pay attention to strategy, we not only need to get back the game, but also let Yan Laoxi and Chang Kaishen have no reason to pick!"

"Haha, Lao Ding, you are really a good dog-headed military advisor."

Li Yunlong laughed loudly when he heard the words: "I thought of going with our old Li."

Ding Wei's face suddenly showed constipation, and he became a fucking dog-headed military adviser again.

However, Wang Ye failed to get involved in the discussion between the two, but only cared about admiring the treasure chest.

But all I saw was the phantoms of five golden treasure chests lying quietly in the field of vision.

There are five, only half of the distance from ten, and five more can be synthesized.

Thinking of this, Wang Ye became more and more looking forward to it, wondering what kind of skill the Supreme Treasure Box could open?Will a naked eye [-]x scope be developed?Then yo yo.

At this time, Zhao Gang hurried in and asked: "Tuan Zhang, and Lao Li, I am going to arrange manpower to dismantle the machinery and equipment of each factory. After disassembly, they will be packaged and shipped directly. But the problem now is that these machinery and equipment Should it be transported back to our Northwest Shanxi base or to the Taiyue base?"

Ding Wei asked Li Yunlong and Wang Ye, "Old Li, what do you think?"

"I have no objection." Li Yunlong has no obsession with this, "It can be transported back to Northwest Shanxi, or sent to Taiyue Mountain, Lao Ding, you make your decision, I will support you anyway."

Ding Wei turned his gaze to Wang Ye again: "Xiao Wang, what's your opinion?"

Wang Ye thought for a moment and said, "Commander Ding, this batch of machinery and equipment is no small matter. Whether it is transported back to Northwest Shanxi or sent to Taiyue Mountain will directly determine the focus of the Japanese army's operations in Shanxi in the next stage."

Ding Wei said with a serious look: "You mean, where is this batch of machinery and equipment, the Japanese army in Shanxi will focus on where they will attack in the next stage, right?"

……

Taiyue Mountain, the [-]th Brigade Headquarters.

The chief of staff said thoughtfully: "Brigade Commander, have you thought about a question?"
