Anti-Japanese War: I have a million soldiers and you call me a division commander?

Nine o'clock in the evening!

In Lesheng Town, after dinner, the pseudo-Mongolian army, except for the lazy personnel on duty, all gathered together to drink, play cards, and push pairs.

The small town was filled with puppet troops.

As for the people in the town, they had already run away. The remaining people were the old, weak, sick and disabled, the kind that could not be exploited, so these pseudo-Mongolian troops did not make things difficult for them.

Headquarters of the 7th Brigade.

It is the only decent courtyard in the town and now serves as the headquarters of the 3rd Division.

In a room, the commander of the 3rd Division of the Puppet Mongolian Army and three brigade commanders under him sat together playing mahjong. There were also many people sitting around them, all of whom were commanders at the level of the 3rd Division of the Puppet Mongolian Army.

"Brothers, we will officially set off tomorrow. You have to work hard for me this time." The commander of the 3rd Division of the pseudo-Mongolian army, who was smoking and playing mahjong, stretched out his hand to touch a three, raised his hand to hit a east wind, and said.

"This time we will cooperate with the Grand Master in the battle. In the words of the Grand Master, if you fight well, you will be rewarded greatly. If you don't fight well, don't accuse me, the division commander, of not protecting my brothers."

"If the Lady pursues the matter at that time, I won't be able to do anything about it." After saying this, he saw his subordinate hit a six-tube card, and he immediately shouted, "Gang!"

The three brigade commanders who were playing cards with him also smiled and echoed.

"Master, don't worry, the brothers have already given us instructions."

"This time we're definitely going to have a good fight, we're just the Eighth Route Army!"

"There are so many of us in the Third Division. If we act together, the Eighth Route Army will probably just run away if they see us."

After one brigade commander finished speaking, another brigade commander continued, "That's right, we just received a new batch of weapons and equipment. I like that artillery battalion and those artillery pieces."

"With the weapons and equipment of the Eighth Route Army, our brigade can block them, and once the artillery battalion bombards them, our two cavalry brigades can charge forward without guns, sabers will be enough."

For a moment, everyone in the room started shouting, and everyone seemed very excited and confident. It was obvious that their confidence came not only from their numbers but also from their weapons and equipment.

"Ok!"

Hearing everyone's words, the commander of the pseudo 3rd Division smiled and nodded, saying, "That's right, that's what you said, but the Eighth Route Army still has some strength, so we can't be too confident."

"Especially, we must not be fooled by the Eighth Route Army. This time, there are eight or nine thousand local Eighth Route Army soldiers."

"Their number is not much less than ours. Once we encounter the main force of the Tubalu Army, what we have to do is to hold on to them tightly and wait for the main force of the Taijun to arrive."

"It's not easy for me to gather all these soldiers. Don't let any of them get wiped out by me." As he said this, he saw one of his men play a three-tube card. His eyes lit up immediately and he said, "Win!"

"Hahahaha!"

Then he laughed loudly and pushed the mahjong in his hand over, took the three bamboos and said, "Haha, I'm Hu San Liu Tong." After that, he put the three bamboos in and said to his three subordinates, "Hurry up, hurry up, take out the money."

When the three brigade commanders saw this scene, they all pretended to have bitter faces and cried while taking out money.

"Master, you are so lucky!"

"It's the nth round now, let's give it a try, brothers!"

"Commander, how about we change places?"

Listening to his subordinates' words, the commander of the pseudo 3rd Division, who had won the money, cursed with a red face and a smile: "You wish! I finally got lucky, and you still want my Feng Shui treasure land? It's nothing."

After saying that, he took the money into his hands.

Looking closely, the money these people used was neither silver, legal tender, nor Japanese yen, but the Saibei currency issued by the Jinsui Chaji Special City.

It is obvious that the Saibei currency is not circulated in these places, but because of the existence of the Independent 1st Division and sufficient supply of materials, the Saibei currency has also become one of the main currencies circulating in the hands of the pseudo-Mongolian army.

As for how they spend Saibei currency? This is even simpler. Just let your subordinates go. The markets in some county towns are relatively open, and the goods there are also sufficient. They are a little more expensive, but they don't mind the price.

Being able to buy the supplies they want, and some things that are not available elsewhere, is what these puppet soldiers want.

Of course, it was not just the puppet army. Many Japanese soldiers did the same. They also sent people to the markets in these counties to buy things.

While these puppet army officers were playing cards, chatting and discussing some things about tomorrow's battle, they didn't know that people from the first team had already sneaked in.

Moreover, in Lesheng Town, which was not very tight inside and outside, the 3rd Division of the Puppet Mongolian Army was investigated and patrolled, not only knowing their number of personnel, weapons and equipment, and stationing locations clearly.

Just a dozen meters away from these puppet army officers, there was a team of people who sneaked in to gather intelligence.

nine thirty!

Outside Lesheng Town, a combat staff officer quickly ran over and said, "Captain, all the troops have moved into their positions. Our officers and soldiers who sneaked in ahead of time have also sent back the intelligence they found."

As he spoke, the operations officer came to the hand-drawn map of Lesheng Town, marked a point, and said, "This is the headquarters of the 7th Brigade of the Puppet Mongolian Army. In this room in the backyard, all the officers above the regimental level of the 3rd Division, including the regimental level, are in this room, playing mahjong with the commander of the Puppet 3rd Division."

"Yes, Not Bad!"

Hearing this, Liu Yiyun's eyes lit up, and he immediately said to the combat staff, "Send this map to the artillery battalion. When the battle begins, bombard this room and the courtyard."

"I was thinking of sending out troops to throw some grenades and explosive packs at these guys, but I didn't expect them to gather together on their own."

"Isn't this easier?"

Hearing Liu Yiyun's words, the combat staff officer responded, strode out, and headed towards the artillery battalion with a map.

Time passed quickly and soon it was ten o'clock.

"let's start!"

When the clock struck ten in the evening, Liu Yiyun gave the order to attack.

The artillery battalion had a total of 50 82mm mortars, Type 92 infantry guns and other artillery pieces. With a wave of the battalion commander's hand, the commanders of various small artillery positions waved red flags and gave orders.

"Attention, all gun positions, reserve position, 3 rounds rapid fire, fire!!!"

"Boom! Boom!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

"boom!"

Accompanied by dull sounds, shells flew out from the barrel, flew across the sky for thousands of meters, and plunged into Lesheng Town.

In Lesheng Town, the headquarters of the 7th Brigade of the Puppet Mongolian Army was instantly turned into a sea of ​​fire, and the encirclement and annihilation battle against the 3rd Division of the Puppet Mongolian Army in Lesheng Town officially began amid the roar of artillery fire.
