Bright Sword: Follow Kong's fun and build the strongest military industry

After saying this, Lao Liu ordered people to distribute the weapons and ammunition.

Kong Hao drew a rough layout of the bank based on today's reconnaissance, and also summarized the findings of other team members.

After some discussion, Kong Hao said seriously:

"It is now two o'clock in the afternoon. Li Ergou, lead the fire support team to the vicinity of the Japanese First Army Headquarters and use two mortars to bombard the enemy's lair. Fire forty rounds as quickly as possible and then withdraw quickly."

"Remember, run away after the fight and plant booby traps near the mortar positions."

"Instructor, come with me to the Specie Bank. After shelling the enemy headquarters, we will take advantage of the chaos to launch a surprise attack and steal a large amount of cash in the bank to develop the economy of our base."

"After completing the mission, place all your belongings in this secret location. I will arrange for personnel to transport them away safely."

"Old Liu, lead the action team to make some noise in other places after 7 o'clock in the evening to distract the Japanese."

After listening to the plan, Lao Liu frowned and responded:

"Captain Kong, isn't this a bit too hasty of a plan? I feel like a lot of things haven't been planned out. Should we do some more reconnaissance before we act?"

Old Liu felt excited just thinking about the bombardment of the Japanese First Army Headquarters. If this was successful, they would become famous in the Chinese intelligence circle.

As intelligence personnel, they usually just pass on some information and get some supplies needed for the base. Even if there is a gunfight with Japanese agents, in most cases they respond passively.

Even if we grit our teeth and organize a capable force to rescue our arrested comrades, this would already be a rare grand scene.

But all of this was not as exciting as the shelling of the Japanese headquarters. Of course, if the commander of the enemy's First Army, Yoshio Shinozuka, could be killed on the spot, it would be a news that would shock the world.

Although the probability of this happening is very small, unless God is on our side and blesses the artillery shells we launch, it is still exciting to think about it.

The problem is that this plan is too rushed in terms of time, and the results will definitely not be that great.

However, Kong Hao said seriously: "This must be launched tonight, otherwise it will be too late."

After saying that, he briefly told what happened at the train station, of course only to Lao Liu. The fewer people who knew about this kind of thing, the better.

After hearing this, Old Liu finally realized the urgency of the matter.

"Captain Kong, all of our intelligence personnel in Taiyuan will fully cooperate with your operation. Even if it costs us all two hundred people, it will be worth it."

However, Kong Hao waved his hand and responded with a smile:

"Old Liu, that's not the case. You don't have to be so pessimistic. To put it bluntly, our plan this time is mainly to create chaos in the city so that the Japanese will have no time to take care of other things."

"You need to explain clearly to your comrades that you should throw a few grenades at the Japanese gendarmerie, police station, and Special High Police, then fire a few shots and retreat."

"Everything is based on your own safety. If it really doesn't work, you can give up the mission. Basically, it won't have much impact."

"Oh, and there's one more thing you need to be especially careful about. Don't get close to the Fourth Division's barracks, and don't provoke their troops."

"To some extent, those people are harmless as long as we don't mess with them."

Facing the Fourth Division, Lao Liu had heard of it before. It was the kind of army that looked weak on the surface but was actually extremely powerful.

It's just that they are keen on doing business and generally don't get involved in other things.

But if their interests are really harmed, the people of the Fourth Division will definitely fight to the death.

Next, everyone used various identities to hide near the mission target.

At 6:30 in the evening, at the Japanese First Army Headquarters, Yoshio Shinozuka and Ikki Yamamoto were discussing things.

Shinozuka Yoshio frowned and asked:

"Mr. Yamamoto, you just read all the recent intelligence about the Eighth Route Army's deployment. Do you have any thoughts?"

"Commander Shinozuka, I found several unusual things in this information."

"Take the 386th Brigade for example. It is a major threat to our First Army. However, in recent days, the so-called Taiyue Military Region has been mobilizing its forces too frequently."

"Many bases have reported that a large number of troops have passed through their defense zones, but the number of troops each time is not large, generally around one company."

"Because our stronghold garrisons rashly pursued the enemy several times before and were ambushed by the superior forces of the Eighth Route Army, we strictly ordered all strongholds to take the initiative to attack."

"Also, because we lost a lot of troops some time ago, we are short of maneuverable forces in many places, so we mainly rely on defense in most cases."

Yoshio Shinozuka did not say anything, but walked to the battle map hanging on the wall and carefully looked at the lines marked by the battle staff.

However, after looking for a long time, he found that the marching routes of the troops mobilized by the Eighth Route Army were disorganized, and there was no clear direction at all.

This was also done intentionally by the combat staff of the 386th Brigade. Everyone makes a living from this, and they are all old hands. How could they easily let others discover their real combat objectives?

Many times, it was the county brigade and militia, wearing our army's uniforms, holding wooden weapons, and wandering around outside the Japanese strongholds every day under different flags.

The purpose is to give the enemy an illusion that this kind of mobilization is very unusual, but what its purpose is will have to be guessed by the Japanese high-ranking officials.

Our main force was divided into small groups and secretly assembled at the train station.

Finally, Shinozuka pointed to the stations around Taigu Railway Station, marked them with a red pen, and said heavily:

"Look at these train stations. They were attacked at the same time. Several tracks were blown up. It will take at least three days to repair this railway line."

"Under the circumstances, we had no choice but to temporarily store all the supplies at Taigu Railway Station. Is there any necessary connection between the above and the frequent mobilization of the Eighth Route Army?"

Yamamoto Ikki looked at it carefully and finally shook his head.

"We have a large number of troops stationed in Taigu County, and the railway station is heavily guarded. With the weapons and equipment of the Eighth Route Army, it is impossible to capture it in a short period of time."

"As long as there is fierce gunfire at the train station, other places will receive the news immediately and reinforcements will arrive within two hours."

"It's impossible for anyone to do it under such tight defense."

At this time, Shinozuka Yoshio specifically asked:

"Mr. Yamamoto, if you lead your special forces team, is it possible to capture Taikoo Railway Station quietly without firing a single shot?"

Yamamoto Ikki thought about it carefully for a while, then shook his head and said:

"If it was in the wild, relying on the strong individual qualities of the special forces, it might be possible to easily wipe out a garrison squadron. However, with the full defense of the train station, it is impossible. Even our former German instructors couldn't do it."

After hearing this, Yoshio Shinozuka felt relieved.

Taiyuan City is guarded by the Fourth Division, so there is not much problem in security. Now no matter what plan the Eighth Route Army has, he can respond to all changes with the same attitude.

At this time, about three kilometers away from the Japanese headquarters, two mortars had been assembled and were ready to fire at any time.
