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

At the Eighth Route Army's front-line headquarters, the commander saw the telegram in his hand.

The expressionless face suddenly showed a smile, and the whole person stood up and patted the table.

"Okay, okay, Wang Lin really did a great job."

"But in just half a month, we've already taken over four county towns and the neighboring city, effectively taking over half of the country."

"The Japanese probably only realized at this moment that the troops who attacked us were our Eighth Route Army, but it was too late for them to realize it."

The Deputy Chief of General Staff beside him also smiled when he heard the news.

"I knew Wang Lin would never let us down. The Japanese are definitely going to be anxious this time."

"Once they get anxious, Taiyuan will definitely be restless, and our operations will be smoother."

As the saying goes, the tree wants to be still but the wind doesn't stop.

The more Yoshio Shinozuka wanted peace, the more anxious the Eighth Route Army would make them!

When the news of Wang Lin’s victory on the front line reached his brothers in the rear, the National Army also received the news almost at the same time.

"Commander Yan, Commander Yan!!!"

"There's news from the Communist Army."

A messenger from the National Army was holding a telegram from the Communist front line.

At this time, Lao Yan was looking at the tactical distribution map of the Taiyuan area, thinking about what tactics the Communist army would use and how long it would take to capture the target area.

When Old Yan heard the news from the messenger, he originally thought that if it was something insignificant, then there was no need to pay too much attention to it.

But when he heard the news was about the Communist Army, since it concerned his own vital interests, Old Yan had to check it carefully.

Old Yan immediately frowned and scolded.

"You're so flustered! How disgraceful! You're bringing shame to our national army."

Although Old Yan said this, his hands were still very honest.

"I'm sorry, Commander Yan, this news is truly shocking."

He took the telegram from the messenger and looked at it carefully.

"We, the National Army, have seen all sorts of storms and waves. Don't act so ignorant. If the Communists knew about this, they would definitely laugh at us."

Speaking of this, Old Yan also remembered that the Communist troops had previously captured some county towns in northwestern Shanxi.

But the number of Japanese soldiers in the county town was only about a small squad, which was not something the national army could take seriously at all.

Even Old Yan dared to say frankly that if a battalion of the National Army attacked with high-quality equipment, it would be able to quickly take it down in just one or two days.

To be honest, the fact that the Communist army was able to take the city so easily was a bit beyond Old Yan's expectations.

After all, most of the Communist troops are civilians who have not received any military training, and their military literacy is definitely inferior to that of the National Army.

However, due to the growing strength of the Communist army, especially the 386th Brigade, to be honest, if the 386th Brigade is measured by the standards of other Communist armies, then Old Yan, who knows the abilities of Wang Lin's team well, really cannot get a definite answer.

"But then again, no matter how powerful Wang Lin and his men are, it's still a bit too idealistic to think they can capture a city in the shortest possible time."

Old Yan couldn't help but smile knowingly when he thought of this. No matter how powerful the Communist army was, it was still a bit too unrealistic to want to capture a city. What's more, this was southern Shanxi, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack.
