After graduating from Huangpu, he rose to prominence as a regiment leader.

"That's true." Li Yunlong nodded.

What he knew now was nothing more than what the independent brigade had on the surface, such as the armored forces, which he only understood after coming to Taiyuan.

Ding Wei said thoughtfully: "So, the independent brigade gives me the feeling that it is planning ahead of time. Maybe Qin Feng has already prepared for it."

According to Lao Li, he knew that Taiyuan City actually had little to do with others, and the Independent Brigade had already sent troops to raid Taiyuan before the war broke out.

In other words, everything after this was within Qin Feng’s plan.

As for Chu Yunfei, it seemed like he was inexplicably dragged into this, or rather, he was tricked in by Qin Feng.

Although they belong to the same Jinsui Army system, who can tell for sure the twists and turns between them?

After all, even Commander Yan of the Second War Zone may not be aware of the true strength of the Independent Brigade!

No one knows what Qin Feng’s ultimate goal is, but it is conceivable that it is definitely not simple!

Ding Wei pondered for a moment, then said: "Well, Lao Li, take me to see Qin Feng, and everything will be clear!"

Li Yunlong opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but finally swallowed his words back: "Okay."

......

Temporary headquarters of the independent brigade.

"Commander-in-Chief! According to the information sent back from all sides, Shinozuka Kazuo's large forces will be able to return to support us by tomorrow at the latest!"

Wang Ke paused, looking a little worried: "Can we really stop it?"

"Don't worry, all the departments have made preparations for defense, right?" Qin Feng waved his hand, signaling Wang Ke to relax.

"Everything has been arranged. Except for the special operations battalion, all other units have built defensive facilities." Wang Ke hesitated and said, "But Brigade Commander, if the Japanese send out the air force, how should we respond?"

Now all their defenses are built around Taiyuan. To put it bluntly, this is just a positional battle, and it is completely unable to stop the enemy's air fire support!

Qin Feng shook his head: "Xiao Ke, first of all, Shinozuka Kazuo can't mobilize the Army Aviation Corps, and the main Army Aviation Corps aircraft are all conducting strategic bombing in the hinterland of the Great Wall."

"So he can only transfer troops from other war zones, but the quantity and time are both problems. It may not be that fast!"

"Secondly, do you know why I left Taiyuan alone? After our independent brigade arrived in Taiyuan, we did not move into Taiyuan." Qin Feng said in a deep voice.

"Why?" Wang Ke looked a little confused.

"Because Taiyuan is our greatest guarantee! As long as the battlefield is opened near Taiyuan, Shinozuka Kazuo will not send a large number of army aviation units to bomb!"

"This is a battle between two armies. Kazuo Shinozuka will not fail to see this." Qin Feng said slowly.

"As for whether we can win, I can only say that even without relying on Taiyuan, the Independent Brigade is confident that it will not fall behind in the short term!"

Qin Feng's words contained a huge amount of information, and it took Wang Ke several seconds to fully understand them.

"I understand, Commander, but do we really have no support next?" Wang Ke paused, but still couldn't help but speak.

After all, the next enemy they will face is four field divisions, with a total of more than 100,000 troops!

If they rely on their independent brigade alone, they may not be able to take it all!

"It's hard to say. Once the Taiyuan battlefield is opened, the intensity of the war will be more brutal than during the large-scale sweep!" Qin Feng said slowly.

"And this is not just a delaying attack. Both the Eighth Route Army and the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army can no longer simply defend. Without heavy firepower, the pressure will inevitably increase dramatically!"

"If we are talking about those who are truly capable, our Shanxi Suiyuan Army can do it, but whether Commander Yan will send out troops or not depends on whether Chu Yunfei is a strong enough bargaining chip!"

Qin Feng's voice was neither hurried nor slow, giving people a sense of reassurance.

The independent brigade did save the entire northwest Shanxi, but both the deputy commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army and Commander Yan of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army needed to consider the overall situation.

If Taiyuan opens up a battlefield, the gap in strength between the two sides will only become more obvious.

Even if the top leaders of the Eighth Route Army and the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army wanted to mobilize troops, they would consider it carefully.

It is conceivable that once troops are sent out again, northwestern Shanxi will once again fall into the quagmire of war!

Unless, they can see the certainty of victory!

And there is another problem facing Commander Yan, that is, the independent brigade seems to be beyond his control!

This has a huge impact on his own decision!

Just as Wang Ke was about to say something, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the door.

"Report to the brigade commander! Quartermaster!"

"The commander of the New 1st Regiment, Li Yunlong, is here with his men to request a meeting!" the guard's voice rang out.

Qin Feng: "Bring them in!"

"Yes!"

Soon, Li Yunlong and Zhang Dabiao appeared in the command center.

Behind them, there appeared two faces that were extremely unfamiliar to the Independent Brigade, but extremely familiar to Qin Feng!

This is Ding Wei and Kong Jie!

"Brigade Commander Qin!"

"Brigade Commander Qin! Long time no see!"

The moment they saw Qin Feng, Ding Wei and Kong Jie greeted him.

For Kong Jie, this was the second time he met Qin Feng. In fact, they had a certain connection.

When they first met in Yangcun, Kong Jie never expected that Qin Feng would reach the heights he has today!

"Captain Kong, long time no see! I guess this is Captain Ding Weiding from the new Second Regiment?" Qin Feng looked at the two of them silently, thinking that two more talented people had arrived!

"Brigade Commander Qin, how could I have imagined that there was such a great figure like you hidden in the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army!" Ding Wei said sincerely.

Qin Feng smiled modestly: "Haha! Captain Ding, you are joking. I don't deserve it."

"No need to refuse, Brigade Commander Qin really lives up to his reputation! The first reason I came here today is to meet the great commander Qin that Lao Li mentioned!"

"Secondly, I want to see if there is anything we can do to help your army in its next move." Ding Wei looked at Qin Feng and said.

Qin Feng smiled slightly: "Captain Ding, what you want to ask should be more than just that, right?"

He knew very well that among the iron triangle in northwest Shanxi, Ding Wei was an absolute general with the style of a commander. Whether he was leading troops in battle or having insight into the strategic situation, he was truly outstanding!

In other words, the overall view is really strong!

Seeing that his thoughts were exposed, Ding Wei smiled awkwardly. Of course, he wanted to know more than just this.

Most importantly, what on earth does the Independence Brigade want to do?!

Qin Feng did not hide this: "Actually, the matter is very simple."

"Wang Ke!" Qin Feng suddenly spoke.

“Here!” Wang Ke took a step forward very skillfully.

"Immediately send another clear-code telegram to announce to all units that the Independent Brigade will take charge of Taiyuan City for seven days!"

As he spoke, a cold light flashed in Qin Feng's eyes, and the meaning was naturally self-evident.
