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

Chapter 22: Initial mechanization, improved mobility for all members!

Following Qin Feng's order, all the soldiers immediately boarded the vehicle in an orderly manner.

There were certain conditions within the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army for training motor vehicle soldiers, so at least there was no need to worry about not being able to drive the Japanese trucks they stole.

The transport units in the Japanese military station were also varied, including heavy trucks, motorcycles with sidecars, horse-drawn carriages powered by mules and horses, and even a car. All in all, the scattered units were enough for them to move.

As the commander, Qin Feng was invited to get into the car, and after getting in, he found that Wang Ke was still sitting in the driver's seat.

"You can also drive a car?" Qin Feng looked surprised.

Wang Ke said weakly: "Yes, sir, I learned it in the military academy before..."

She became the driver again.

Qin Feng was very surprised at first. This Wang Ke is really an all-rounder. He can manage logistics and be a driver. But when he heard that he graduated from a military academy, it was not surprising anymore.

If you think about it more deeply, she and Qin Feng are probably classmates, and they both graduated from the Whampoa Military Academy.

Although there were few female students in the Whampoa Military Academy, there were indeed some. I just didn't know which class she was in.

Putting aside the thought, Qin Feng turned to look at Yang Song beside him: "Captain Yang, let a few soldiers blow up this transfer station and try to prevent the Japanese follow-up troops from discovering useful intelligence."

Yang Song immediately called a few soldiers to pass on the order.

As the soldiers were setting up the explosives, the sky was gradually darkening.

Qin Feng took advantage of the time before the sun completely set and looked at the map.

Although the location of the Japanese combat troops is not marked above, we can make a rough guess based on the range of the supply lines.

What caught Qin Feng's attention was that there was actually a Japanese supply line drawn at the location where they planned to enter the mountain area!

"There are actually enemy supply lines in this mountainous area. It seems we can't let our guard down completely."

Qin Feng originally thought that he wouldn't have to worry about the threat from the Japanese invaders once he entered the mountains, but now he sees that they are really hard to guard against.

Wang Ke, who was in the driver's seat, heard the voice and turned around and came over.

She took a few glances and said, "But this supply line doesn't seem to be large in scale. It's just a small transit station. The Japanese shouldn't have deployed many troops."

Qin Feng couldn't help but think deeply. Although the number of the Japanese soldiers was small, they were still Japanese soldiers. They must not underestimate the enemy.

Thinking of this, Qin Feng suddenly had an idea.

"We may run into the devils at any time along the way, why not just change into their clothes?"

Qin Feng immediately ordered his men to distribute the cotton clothes they had seized from the Japanese invaders.

When given the order, most people did it even though they didn’t understand it.

After all, after several battles, every soldier's clothes were stained with dust and sweat, as well as patches of blood stains whose color could not be seen clearly, making them very uncomfortable and feeling uncomfortable when the wind blew.

But the nights in northwest Shanxi are not peaceful. The cold wind will whistle into people's collars and cuffs, making people feel bitingly cold.

After putting on the Japanese cotton clothes, everyone felt comfortable immediately.

In the car, Qin Feng had now changed into a new look, wearing the uniform of a Japanese officer and a general's sword on his waist, looking exactly like a Japanese general.

Wang Ke sat in the driver's seat with an unnatural look on her face. She had just found a set of clothes to wear, but they didn't fit her well. She could only barely look like a Japanese lieutenant.

Leng Yue sat in the passenger seat holding a gun. This was Qin Feng's request. After all, it would be dark soon, and it would be safer to have a sharpshooter around.

After Yang Song finished giving the order, he got in the car and sat next to Qin Feng: "Sir, the arrangements have been completed. We can set off at any time."

Qin Feng nodded, then signaled Wang Ke to drive.

The car was started, and it was still leading the convoy.

After the entire convoy had completely left, several of the most mobile soldiers at the end were responsible for detonating the explosives.

"three!"

"two!"

"one!"

"fry!!!"

......

First Army Provisional Headquarters.

Commander Kazuo Shinozuka was sitting in front of a chessboard playing against himself, which was his personal hobby.

But somehow, Shinozuka Kazuo was unable to make a move today, with a lingering sadness between his brows.

"Oh!"

Finally, Shinozuka Kazuo put down the chess piece heavily. He breathed a sigh of relief: "How is it? Did our reconnaissance team bring back any news?"

The adjutant at the side immediately stepped forward and said, "Your Excellency the General, there is no news yet, but the rest of our troops are advancing steadily. The space for the Eighth Route Army and the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army to move has been greatly reduced by us!"

Hearing this, Shinozuka Kazuo did not show any joy, but frowned: "Isn't this as it should be? The sweep that I carefully organized should have been carried out like this!"

The adjutant who was scolded lowered his head quickly and dared not speak again.

Shinozuka Kazuo stood up and walked slowly around the headquarters with his hands behind his back: "What I want now is the news about the troops that attacked the headquarters of the 4th Brigade! I want to know their specific situation and their next move!"

"Do you think those troops below fought well? The elite ace Matsushima Regiment was eaten up, and the Sakata Regiment in the direction of Cangyun Ridge was defeated. All I saw were the stupid commands of these regiment commanders!"

The adjutant did not dare to respond, because what General Shinozuka said was all true. The two elite regiments of their empire were all defeated by the Xia Kingdom's troops.

He also knew that what General Shinozuka cared about was not just the two regiments, but the fact that the general's orders were not carried out and that there was a flaw in the mopping-up plan!

After a brief emotional outburst, Kazuo Shinozuka returned to his normal composure. This was the kind of demeanor a general should have.

However, at this moment, a scout ran in quickly.

"Report to the General, the reconnaissance team you sent out has sent back news!"

Shinozuka Kazuo was delighted: "Read it quickly!"

"Yes!" The scout immediately unfolded the telegram in his hand. "According to the reconnaissance, our unit did not find any trace of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army, but unexpectedly discovered that the 11th Brigade's field station was blown up, and it is suspected that the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army was responsible."

In an instant, Kazuo Shinozuka's expression changed.

"Baga! They actually took down the military station? Are the people at the military station idiots?!"

Kazuo Shinozuka quickly came to the large map and found the location of the military station on it.

As a general, judging the enemy's movements is basic practice, and he quickly locked on a route!

"I see. This Jinsui Army actually wants to bypass the imperial army's sweep by taking a mountainous route?"

Kazuo Shinozuka's eyes were fixed on that area, as if he was trying to guess the commander's intentions.

The adjutant at the side also stepped forward and said, "General, do we still need to send troops to catch up with them?"

"No!" Shinozuka Kazuo shook his head, "We can't catch up, and it's too late to mobilize troops now."

"Are we just going to let them get away like this, General?" The adjutant was a little unwilling. They had never suffered such a great humiliation.

When did the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army ever achieve such a result against their imperial army?

Kazuo Shinozuka narrowed his eyes and his gaze fell on the area called 'Cangyun Ridge'.

"The Shanxi-Suiyuan Army is not like the Eighth Route Army. It is unlikely that they will break up into smaller units. The only possibility is to cross the mountainous area and head to Cangyun Ridge to join the 358th Regiment."

"I heard that in Cangyunling, the Shanxi Suiyuan Army and the Eighth Route Army formed a temporary battle line to resist our raid. Perhaps we can wipe them out there in one fell swoop!"

The adjutant's eyes lit up, as if he understood something: "General, what do you mean?"

Shinozuka Kazuo said word by word: "Mobilize heavy troops and focus on attacking the direction of Cangyun Ridge. This will be the perfect opportunity to catch them all in one fell swoop!"

The adjutant immediately took the order and went down: "Ha Yi!"
