Anti-Japanese War: Plunder the devils to create a super army

Tang Bo, the confidant next to him, thought for a moment and said hesitantly.

"This intelligence is indeed true. The Eighth Route Army's current combat effectiveness has probably exceeded our imagination. At the very least, this unit is different from what we previously knew."

"I think we should be more vigilant about this force."

The bald man nodded and said.

"This army is indeed not simple, and they also place special emphasis on Wang Lin."

"Tell Old Yan to pay more attention. The Eighth Route Army is able to eliminate so many Japanese soldiers and officers. It is indeed quite capable."

"If our national army were to engage a force like this, it's hard to say whether we could gain an advantage."

An entire brigade of the Japanese devils was annihilated. You know, even if the National Army dispatched a division of troops, it would be difficult to take down an entire brigade of the Japanese devils.

You may even be eaten by the opponent.

Previously, there was a situation where a regiment was chasing a division.

A unit that can play an important role in annihilating the Japanese brigade must be more vigilant.

At this moment, he is located in the headquarters of the Second War Zone of the National Army in Taiyuan.

The war zone commander, Old Yan, was quietly looking at the telegram in his hand.

His expression became extremely ugly, and even a little bit unbelievable.

After a moment, he placed the telegram on the table, frowned tightly and looked at the chief of staff next to him.

"What's going on with the Eighth Route Army's frontline troops? How can they be so powerful?"

"The 7000th Brigade of the Japanese First Army has a total of troops, sufficient ammunition, and fierce firepower. Even we dare not confront such a force head-on."

“How did the Eighth Route Army do it?”

He didn't quite understand and even thought the telegram was fake.

But the facts are right in front of me.

The Eighth Route Army really wiped out the Japanese Ninth Brigade and annihilated a total of 7000 enemy troops.

Moreover, in terms of numbers, the Eighth Route Army did not even have as many troops as the enemy.

This is almost impossible. In the past, even if the Eighth Route Army had more troops than the Japanese, it might not be able to defeat the enemy.

But this battle was a great victory.

The Japanese didn't even have a chance to struggle.

The chief of staff thought for a moment and then spoke.

"Our 358th Regiment is nearby. They might know something about the situation."

Old Yan nodded and began to think.

The Eighth Route Army sent him a telegram explaining the situation of their battle.

This is tantamount to naked showing off.

Not only that, they also hoped that their national army would be more active and take more actions to fight the Japanese.

From this perspective, it's not just about showing off, it's about warning them.

After all, their national army has basically not had any major conflicts with the Japanese in recent times.

This time, they did not participate in the Japanese 9th Brigade's attack on the Eighth Route Army, but just watched from the side.

The deputy commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army Headquarters was dissatisfied.

If it were in the past, Old Yan would definitely not take it to heart.

He didn't take the Eighth Route Army seriously at all.

They had never fought against the Zhijun Army, naturally hoping to rely on the Japanese army to destroy the Eighth Route Army's troops.

But no one expected that the Eighth Route Army would be so powerful now. The troops from the front-line headquarters alone directly annihilated the Japanese Ninth Brigade.

This is really incredible.

He also began to feel wary, thinking that he knew too little about the Eighth Route Army.

"Let the 358th Regiment have more contact with the Eighth Route Army and see what changes they have made."

Old Yan finally said.

The National Army's view of the Eighth Route Army had clearly changed dramatically.

Both the Chairman and Old Yan of the Second War Zone were extremely surprised by the performance of the Eighth Route Army.

When they launched the Hundred Regiments Campaign, they thought the Eighth Route Army was overestimating its own capabilities.

They actually dared to take the initiative to attack the Japanese. They were simply seeking death. With their strength, it was impossible for them to hold out for long against the Japanese.

Taking the initiative to attack will only cause them greater losses.

However, the Eighth Route Army relied on guerrilla warfare and mushroom tactics to continuously destroy the Japanese's Zhengtai Railway, roads, and strongholds.

It dealt a huge blow to the Japanese.

These attacks gave the Eighth Route Army a chance to breathe and also created new connections between the various bases.

The Eighth Route Army, which was originally divided, now has more opportunities to unite and gain more room for development.

Not to mention that they even launched a surprise attack on Taiyuan Airport.

It destroyed the Japanese Taiyuan Airport and destroyed a large number of Japanese planes.

As a result, the Japanese had insufficient reconnaissance planes in a short period of time.

Not to mention the bomber, which was almost destroyed at Taiyuan Airport before it could even take off, and the remaining few were unusable.

Now they have directly annihilated an entire brigade of the Japanese army, totaling more than 7000 Japanese troops.

In addition, there was a battlefield observation group of more than 100 officers, and the results of the battle were very brilliant.

But a few days later.

The National Army then reported the Eighth Route Army's battle reports to various war zones.

Each war zone even distributed it to its own troops.

During the reporting process, the bravery of the Eighth Route Army was emphasized, and it was hoped that all troops would launch fierce resistance and enhance their will and confidence in the war of resistance.

Baldy also knows the importance of the war of resistance.

But his troops also have their own problems, that is, many troops in various war zones are actually difficult to control.

But he still did it, which was considered as a way of showing his attitude to the Eighth Route Army.

But no one knows whether this attitude can be expressed in practice.

After all, the National Army did perform well, but there was a big gap in how they treated the Eighth Route Army.

On the surface, the two sides seemed to cooperate a lot, but in reality there was not much cooperation. If it were not for the Japanese army's large-scale operations, there would be no need to talk about cooperation between the National Army and the Eighth Route Army.

At this moment, he is in the 358th Regiment of the Second War Zone of the National Army.

Chu Yunfei looked at the telegram in his hand in the command post and nodded slightly.

"The Eighth Route Army's actions this time were truly impressive. I was previously curious about why the battle between the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese Army was so intense, but I never expected that they would directly attack the Eighth Route Army's headquarters."

"But the Japanese used the main force of a brigade, and also part of the troops from other divisions and brigades to assist in feint attacks and defenses. In the end, the main force was completely annihilated by the Eighth Route Army."

"It's really amazing. The Eighth Route Army's current development speed is really surprising."

Their 358th Regiment was relatively close to the Eighth Route Army's position, so naturally they heard the gunfire first and knew that the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese were fighting.
