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

Wang Lin's troops are implementing a new plan.

On the other side, the Kuomintang troops in southern Shanxi finally began to take action under pressure.

However, they still did not choose to take the initiative to attack, but the army barely moved closer to the Japanese position.

Although they did not initiate an offensive, they did make the Japanese army nervous.

The Japanese army is now like a frightened rabbit.

Southern Shanxi lost two county towns in succession, and the supporting troops were completely wiped out, putting great pressure on the troops of the 108th Division.

At this time, the national army troops suddenly pressed towards the Japanese positions.

The Japanese army naturally became nervous, and Yuncheng did not dare to act rashly for a while.

But even so, some troops began to be mobilized.

After all, although the Nationalist army was close, they did not attack them, while the troops in the north really beat them to death.

In just a few days, they had already captured two county towns. If they continued like this, they would soon reach the neighboring city.

However, with the actions of these national army troops, the commander of the 108th Division of the Japanese Army became more certain that it was definitely the national army that was attacking the county town.

They plan to attack from the north and west at the same time and make a complete mess.

Upon hearing the news, Yoshio Shinozuka's face looked heavy. He did not expect that the National Army would dare to attack them.

The national army was not so brave in the past.

Judging from the current situation, it is probably not a major operation.

Feeling conflicted, Yoshio Shinozuka realized that he couldn't go on like this.

There is only one 108th Division in southern Shanxi, and the pressure of fighting on multiple fronts is quite high.

Both the north and the flanks are facing threats from the Nationalist Army. If we cannot resist those troops in the north, the Nationalist Army on the flanks will inevitably take advantage of the opportunity and invade.

By that time, it will be even more difficult to resist.

Originally, Yoshio Shinozuka did not plan to send any more support, but after confirming that the national army was moving, he became a little panicked.

There must be no problems in Shanxi Province now.

He tapped his fingers on the table, thinking in his mind. Finally, he gritted his teeth and spoke to the chief of staff next to him.

"I still feel uneasy. The army north of Lin City is too powerful. It is very likely to be an elite unit of the national army."

"Colonel Hirata felt that the Nationalist army was probably making a feint to the east and attacking in the west, but it would not be easy for him to swallow the enemy."

Yoshio Shinozuka did not distrust the 108th Division.

But unfortunately, I don’t have much room to retreat now.

The battle situation was already quite bad. If the 108th Division encountered another unexpected accident, Taiyuan would be in danger.

Chief of Staff Miyamoto knew that Yoshio Shinozuka was undecided about whether to go and provide support.

He thought for a moment and then spoke.

"How about we draw out some troops from each unit in the Taiyuan area to form a support force to support southern Shanxi."

"The Eighth Route Army in Northwest Shanxi is still recuperating. Given their strength, they wouldn't dare to attack us rashly."

"Withdrawing some of the troops shouldn't have any impact."

When Yoshio Shinozuka heard this idea, his eyes suddenly lit up and he nodded slightly.

That's a really good idea.

"In that case, we will draw some troops from each unit."

"Forming a brigade should be able to stop the national army's attack."

After receiving the order, the Japanese troops in Taiyuan area began to act quickly.

A large number of troops were stockpiled in the Taiyuan area, which had the strongest defense and was also where the Japanese army had the largest number of troops.

After receiving orders from the command post, each brigade and division quickly mobilized troops.

However, in just one day, 7000 troops were directly mobilized to form a brigade-based force.

This force will be responsible for going to southern Shanxi and finding a way to eliminate the suddenly appearing force.

At the same time, it is also to prevent the national army from taking rash actions.

The Eighth Route Army's front headquarters, which had been closely monitoring the movements of Japanese troops in the Taiyuan area, soon learned the news.

The boss frowned slightly as he looked at the information in his hand.

"This old fox has finally revealed his tail."

He immediately called the communicator over and asked him to deliver the information to Wang Lin.

The Japanese army's plan to deploy troops to the Taiyuan area was actually part of their plan.

As Linshi was facing attacks from both sides, the Japanese troops would definitely not sit idly by and would definitely send reinforcements from Taiyuan area.

The boss would naturally not miss such a good opportunity.

Wang Lin had already made a battle plan with him before. Once the army in Taiyuan area made any movement, their army in northwest Shanxi would have an opportunity.

Yoshio Shinozuka thought that their Eighth Route Army front-line troops were recuperating.

In fact, this is not the case. The Eighth Route Army had already made full preparations, and the troops were ready to go and able to fight at any time.

What we are waiting for is the troops in Taiyuan area to be transferred away.

The Japanese army thought that this was a tactic to lure the tiger away from the mountain, and the real target was Yuncheng.

Then the Eighth Route Army was actually fighting on two fronts. Not only did they have to fight in southern Shanxi, but they also had to attack Shuo City in northern Shanxi.

The boss thought for a moment and finally spoke.

"Immediately notify all frontline troops and tell them that the battle plan can be launched."

As the Japanese army began to frantically mobilize troops in southern Shanxi, Shanxi Province, which had finally calmed down, was once again undercurrent surging.

……

At the same time, in the south of Pingyang County.

Wang Lin's special operations brigade has once again taken action.

After receiving the telegram from headquarters, a smile appeared on his face.

"The troops in Taiyuan have finally started to move, and the Eighth Route Army in the north can also start operations."

"It seems that the Japanese army will either choose to defend northern Shanxi or southern Shanxi, but judging by the current situation, they may lose both."

Li Yunlong next to him also said with a smile.

"The Japanese will probably never realize that no matter what actions they take, they are opportunities for us."

"The Japanese army is now stretched out along such a long front and entrenched in the Taiyuan area, making it difficult to mobilize troops in a timely manner."

"The Japanese army would never have imagined that our Eighth Route Army would dare to attack Shuo City in northern Shanxi."

Everyone was very excited.

This was another large-scale military operation since the Zhengtai Railway.

Moreover, the battles were launched simultaneously against southern and northern Shanxi, which made the Japanese army very confused.

Just thinking about it is exciting.

Until now, the Japanese army is probably still kept in the dark.

Wang Lin laughed and said.

"Everyone, get ready. We're going to be moving faster here."

"While the little devil hasn't noticed it yet, take over the county as quickly as possible!"
