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

Just like the previous [Tiger General] entry, this entry allows Qin Feng to have more choices.

So when he received the reward, he decisively used it on himself to strengthen his bargaining chips.

The function of the entry, as the name suggests, is to improve the three-dimensionality of Qin Feng's firepower and strengthen the modernization of the troops.

Apart from the legendary entry [Military Aid Provider], the various entries Qin Feng had signed in and obtained during this period were enough to arm his troops thoroughly.

He even covered all the terms related to production and military industry, and used them all to the best of his ability to strengthen the power in his hands as much as possible.

During the period of taking over Taiyuan, Wang Ke was responsible for collecting and transporting away all kinds of machine tools, military equipment, lathes and other production tools.

These are all good things that can be used to continuously produce war weapons. With them, as time goes by, the power in Qin Feng's hands will only accumulate more and more terrifying!

Return to the headquarters.

The chief looked at Qin Feng's young but calm face, and seemed to have finally made up his mind.

"Qin Feng!" The commander took a deep breath, "This battle is crucial to the Second War Zone, to Northwest Shanxi, and to the entire Xia Kingdom."

"Do you have the confidence to temporarily incorporate the 386th Brigade into the command system?" said the commander calmly.

"Brigade Commander, what are you doing?" Qin Feng was stunned for a moment.

"Qin Feng, the gap in troop strength in this battle is too big. Although your independent brigade has a large number of troops, it is far from enough." Qin Feng sighed.

"Although the combined strength of my 386th Brigade is only a fraction of yours, this is the best I can do as a Xia country soldier."

"And I can see that you don't feel a sense of belonging to the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army. You are a pure Xia countryman, a true Xia country soldier. So, are you interested in joining our Eighth Route Army?"

The head looked at Qin Feng calmly, waiting for his response.

Qin Feng's expression flickered frequently.

He opened his mouth and was about to say something, but the chief patted him on the shoulder.

"Okay, now that a great battle is about to begin, let's focus on fighting the enemy first!"

"Li Yunlong!"

"exist!"

"Ding Wei!"

"exist!"

"Kong Jie, Blind Cheng!"

"exist......"

"From now on, all units of the 386th Brigade will obey the orders of Qin Feng from the Second War Zone Independent Brigade!"

"Those who disobey orders will be punished by military law!" The commander suddenly said, "Did you hear everything clearly?"

"Yes! Chief!"

"Yes! Chief!"

A number of regimental-level cadres stepped forward to respond.

"Yeah." After the commander nodded, he turned around and looked at Qin Feng deeply, then slowly walked out of the command center.

Under the gaze of everyone, that broad back appeared unusually tall and straight.

......

The Eighth Route Army's Daxiawan headquarters.

"What!?"

"Armored? First Army?"

When the deputy commander-in-chief heard the chief of staff's report, he stood up suddenly.

"Using a tank regiment to attack Taiyuan, Shinozuka Kazuo must be really spending a lot of money!"

The Chief of Staff also shook his head helplessly: "There is no other way, Deputy Commander-in-Chief. With the telegram from the Independent Brigade and Chu Yunfei, the Japs don't want to drag it on any longer."

These two telegrams made the Japanese very angry, and they directly chose to escalate the situation further, putting the independent brigade in a difficult situation.

But I have to say, Qin Feng's move was really satisfying!

The deputy commander took a deep breath and asked, "What's the situation in Taiyuan now?"

"Based on the current situation, there are battles going on in many places near Taiyuan, but Kazuo Shinozuka has not been able to break through the defensive positions of Taiyuan City. This is probably the main reason for dispatching the armored forces." The chief of staff reported quickly.

The main battlefield did not take place in Taiyuan City, which also allowed Qin Feng to reserve enough strategic buffer for himself.

But the problem is that once the Japanese deploy large-scale lethal weapons or even armored units, the position may be in danger of being breached at any time.

The purpose of the tank's emergence is to break through this kind of positional warfare. The thick armor is generally difficult to penetrate unless it encounters intensive bombing.

"Yeah." The deputy commander nodded with a frown.

The independent brigade was really capable. They actually held Taiyuan City for a whole day. Not only that, they also forced Kazuo Shinozuka to mobilize the armored forces.

After a pause, the chief of staff asked tentatively: "Deputy Commander, are we really not going to send troops?"

The deputy commander shook his head: "There is no other way. Compared with the independent brigade, there is the entire Second World War Zone behind us."

Qin Feng did save him, and also saved the Eighth Route Army, and even allowed the entire northwest Shanxi to breathe a sigh of relief under the shadow of the Japanese invaders.

But at present, they are still powerless.

Putting aside the Second War Zone Command, just the fact that they were heading full-scale towards Taiyuan was equivalent to sending them directly to the slaughter of Kazuo Shinozuka's more than 100,000 field troops.

If they move, the entire Second War Zone will not be able to escape!

He cannot afford to involve all the armed forces in northwestern Shanxi, plus the tens of thousands or even millions of ordinary people in northwestern Shanxi!

Even if the 386th Brigade arrived in Taiyuan, they still couldn't move because the areas involved were too wide!

"Report to the deputy commander! We have received the official statement from the Japanese!" The voice of the communicator came from outside the door, and then the other party quickly came to the deputy commander and stood at attention.

"Official statement? What did it say?" The deputy commander-in-chief frowned immediately.

"Deputy Commander! The Japanese have issued an official statement, claiming that all the members of the Osaka Division have been killed!" The communicator swallowed subconsciously, obviously the content of the intelligence was really shocking.

"What?" The deputy commander was shocked. "All the Osaka Division members were killed?"

The chief of staff at the side also suddenly took the telegram and quickly checked the contents.

After reading it, the chief of staff was stunned: "It's really an independent brigade!"

They had had various speculations before, but without solid evidence, no one dared to believe that a Class A division would be defeated by a brigade-level organization.

And now the official statement of the Japanese has completely confirmed this.

This alone is enough to make people unbelievable. More than 20,000 elite Japanese troops were gone just like that?

"Wait, Deputy Commander, why would Kazuo Shinozuka bring this kind of thing up to the public?" The chief of staff suddenly reacted.

"No, this old devil is very smart. He just wants to put pressure on the Japanese Marine Corps to relieve the pressure on himself." The deputy commander shook his head helplessly. "After all, the independent brigade is only a brigade-level organization."

"If Kazuo Shinozuka doesn't want to be fired, he must clear himself."

If the Japanese do not issue a statement and Taiyuan City is not taken over in time, then Shinozuka Kazuo will have to step down on the spot in two days at most, let alone seven days.

It can only be said that the pressure brought to the Japanese by the independent brigade is unprecedentedly great!

"So, deputy commander, according to this, the independent brigade really wiped out an elite division of the Japanese?" The chief of staff couldn't help but ask.

Let alone an independent brigade, even the entire Second War Zone would not dare to say that it could definitely defeat or even annihilate a division, right?

The deputy commander shook his head and said, "It's hard to say. Strictly speaking, the combat effectiveness of the Osaka Division may not be as good as the four divisions under Kazuo Shinozuka."

“If the independent brigade really has enough troops and firepower, coupled with Chu Yunfei’s 358th Regiment, they may be able to win. And if we annihilate the enemy completely…” The deputy commander-in-chief got stuck halfway through his speech.

Now that things have happened, if we want to review them, we can actually force ourselves to explain them.

In the battles of Cangyunling, Lijiaopo and Daxiawan, the combat effectiveness of the independent brigade was absolutely extraordinary.

But what the deputy commander-in-chief didn't understand was that annihilating an entire division was somewhat unreasonable.

This is probably the first case in the entire Xia Kingdom, right?

"No matter what, the independent brigade has demonstrated the style of our Xia country's soldiers!" The deputy commander-in-chief pondered for a moment and gave the highest evaluation to this unit.

"But, Deputy Commander, is there really no other way now?" The chief of staff paused and spoke subconsciously.

Although they praise it, the current crisis of the Independent Brigade has not diminished at all. In fact, as time goes by, it will only fall into a bigger crisis.

The Japanese troops are eyeing us covetously, and the armored units are already on the march. The independent brigade may be in real danger this time!

The deputy commander took a deep breath, and after a long while he spoke: "Maybe there is still a glimmer of hope!"

"A glimmer of hope?" The chief of staff looked over subconsciously.

"As long as Taiyuan City can really hold out for seven days, Commander Yan will have to send troops out at that time!" said the deputy commander-in-chief with a serious expression.

Once they can hold on for seven days, even if Commander Yan does not send troops, the Shancheng side will definitely come forward.

After all, if an outstanding commander who demonstrated the style of the Xia country and supported the backbone of thousands of miles died alone in Taiyuan City without any help, it would be a shame.

Not to mention Commander Yan’s face, Shancheng’s face is also at stake!

In other words, the 400 million Chinese people would definitely not want to see this scene!
