During the Anti-Japanese War, the landlord's stupid son defied fate

At the same time, somewhere in Shanxi Province, the Fifth Division set out from the Xinzhou line and continued to advance towards Longcheng.

In another direction, the 14th Division occupied Niangzi Pass and then continued to advance. After occupying Yangcheng, it was not far from Longcheng.

They are currently stuck in these areas.

Therefore, the North China Front Army, in accordance with the latest domestic instructions, supported the First Army in completing the occupation of Shanxi Province.

This would allow them to attack Qin Province and threaten the rear.

At the same time, cut off external support to the country.

The target was set, so at this moment, the North China Front Army's support for the First Army reached its highest level.

In a meeting room at the Japanese North China Front Army Headquarters in Peking.

The commander looked at the officers of the First Army.

"Do you understand what the country means?"

"Although we lost some troops and equipment in the early stages of the battle, we still managed to break through the enemy's defenses and approach the outskirts of their core area."

“So, you guys did a great job.”

"But I must say that your efforts will be of great significance after you take this place."

"Thinking about the coal resources here, what could be more fragrant than this?"

Ha ha! ! !

The Japanese officers were all excited.

"Alright. Let me tell you about the support we're going to provide this time, and that the mission must be completed within a month."

When these words came out, all the Japanese officers were dumbfounded.

How can we give a fixed term for this?

"Five hundred aircraft were originally intended for the Magic City Front, but I requested them, so there's a time limit."

"Four artillery regiments, one heavy artillery division, plus the artillery regiments your First Army already has. I think even gods can't stop you with full heavy firepower."

"Finally, we have the tank wing. I'll give you 200 tanks. Do you have the confidence to take them down in a month?"

With such fierce firepower, he didn't believe that the commander of the First Army was a waste. It was time to take over Jin Province.

"Hi, Commander, our First Army is committed to completing the mission."

All officers of the First Army above the rank of colonel stood up, shouted loudly, and bowed their heads to show their determination.

"Well, go get ready."

"You will return soon. I will give you half a month to deploy. You must launch the attack after half a month."

The Japanese's movements were soon discovered by intelligence personnel in Peiping.

Not only did the people from the Military Intelligence Department discover the abnormality, but even the people from the Qiangsheng Group discovered the problem.

This could not be concealed. A large number of planes, tanks and heavy artillery were transported from the port to Shanxi Province.

How to conceal large-scale transfers.

Soon, all parties began to investigate how much equipment the Japanese had sent to Shanxi Province.

That night, Zhao had just laid down when he was awakened by a hurried knock on the door.

Fox Fairy quickly pushed the door open and came in.

She said sheepishly.

"Master, urgent telegram from the capital."

"Mr. Zhao Qiangsheng sent a telegram saying he just got important intelligence."

"Here is the content, please take a look."

She handed the contents of the telegram to Zhao Gang.

"Well, go and rest. The sky won't fall."

Zhao Gang asked his secretary Hu Xian'er to leave. He got off the bed and sat down on the sofa.

Only after he sat down did he carefully read the contents of the telegram.

Soon, his brows furrowed.

Now it seems that the Japanese must take over Shanxi Province, otherwise they would not provide such strong support to the First Army with so many good things.

He put down the telegram and began to think of a solution.

Now his armed forces in Shanxi Province include the 001st Division stationed in Pingyang County.

The 13th Division is in a diving state in the Luliang Mountain area.

The 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th Divisions were deployed near Pingyang County and Yangcheng.

Including along railways and overland routes.

Especially the land route, at present, Yu County is still in the hands of the 4th Division. This has become the only way to stop the Japanese from continuing to move westward.

Once we break through here, we will face the Japanese in Pingyang.

Moreover, the direct land route to Longcheng is less than 100 kilometers away.

The railway is mainly located in Zhengtai County. The 6th and 7th Divisions were deployed at the junction between Pingyang and Yangcheng, confronting the 14th Division of the 1st Army.

As a mobile force, the Fifth Division is ready to support battles in all directions at any time.

Of course, there are other garrison troops in Shanxi Province, as well as the Sichuan Army, the Jinling Front Army and the Eighth Army.

However, Zhao Gang’s death squad is complete and well-equipped, and has just been discovered by the outside world.

We had learned about the existence of such a unit before the battle at Niangzi Pass, but later because the two wings were unprotected, we ended up fighting the Japanese with firepower and lost the battle.

Everyone thought that Zhao Gang had no more troops here. When the Japanese attacking forces directly confronted these four divisions, they realized the seriousness of the problem.

It was precisely because of this that the commander of the North China Front Army decided to provide support. The country had just given them the opinion that they must take this place so as to gain a firm foothold in North China and continue to advance into the northwest of Yan State, threatening the rear and external support channels.

Zhao Gang recalled that when he evacuated his father's family, the last four divisions he had arranged were all dispatched.

"Alas, it seems we need to send more people. The problem here in my hometown is not big, but it's hard to say for those going from Xinzhou to Longcheng."

While he was thinking about how much support he should give, there was another knock on the door.

The one who came in this time was Jiang Xue.

"Jiang Xue, why are you here so late at night? You're a girl, how come you don't know how to be mindful of your influence?"

"I've turned away all my secretaries, so why are you still coming to me every day, and always at night?"

In fact, he said this on purpose just to amuse Menzi.

He really had a headache right now.

He doesn’t have many energy points left. After supporting Jin Province once, all he has left is enough to support one major war.

I still don’t dare to buy warships, otherwise why would I have only four ships? I really can’t afford it.

There are all kinds of non-metallic minerals and small amounts of minerals around Wuhan, but there are really not many, so he was too lazy to go.

Besides, I'm still pretending to be a patient and can't run around.

Jiang Xue heard his teasing tone and said something in a bad mood.

"Even if I give it to you, you won't be able to do anything with your body."

Good guy, he was despised, but he didn't care about it.

"Well, what brings you to me so late?"

In fact, he had guessed it, it must be something about Jin Province.

Sure enough, Jiang Xue took out a telegram and began to read it to Zhao Gang.

"Brother Zhao, the situation in our Jin Province is dire right now. I'm specifically asking you to come back and support us. After all, this is also your hometown."

"I will give you an army organization and ask you to stop the Japanese attacking from the direction of Yangcheng. I will withdraw the remaining troops from that direction and focus on ensuring the security of the other direction."

"Also, since we're all from the same hometown, please support us with some heavy weapons. We'll spend a lot of money to buy them."

After reading, Jiang Xue glanced at Zhao Gang, and seeing that he didn't react, she continued.

"The High Command has agreed to his request. Your five divisions in Shanxi Province can be organized into an army."

"At the same time, I hope you can provide some support. After all, if that place collapses, the rear will be in danger."

"The command has decided to send your father and the others to the mountain city. We will give them a place to stay, and you will go back to supervise the battle."

"The Demon City is in the hands of your Chief of Staff. As for the line from Suzhou to Jinling, we have time now and are working hard to build fortifications."

"We just received an order. Jinling has begun evacuating civilians. Only soldiers will remain there. We have also strengthened the defenses on the nearby river."

This series of deployments made Zhao Gang feel much more at ease.
