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

The battle went smoothly and the Japanese and puppet troops were no longer able to resist.

Or perhaps the remaining Japanese and puppet troops were scattered everywhere and were unable to organize effective resistance.

The puppet troops chose to surrender directly, and their mentality was completely broken.

"idiot!"

"Surrender? Damn it! You actually surrendered!"

"Damn it, dead!"

"..."

Many Japanese soldiers were furious when they saw the puppet troops choose to surrender, and many of them were about to shoot and kill the surrendering puppet troops.

Some Japanese soldiers also shot or stabbed the surrendered puppet soldiers to death with bayonets.

The puppet army did not expect that they would be stabbed in the back by the Japanese just for surrendering, and they suddenly became panic-stricken.

"Damn it, brothers, let's fight the Japs!"

"Brothers, if we kill the devils we still have a chance to survive, otherwise we will all die!"

"Revolt is a request!"

"..."

Some puppet soldiers fled and hid, some were killed, but some were provoked to fight with the Japanese devils.

Infighting!

Too scattered!

In addition, morale was completely lost and casualties were heavy!

Faced with the attacks of the 1st Independent Brigade and the 120th Division of the Eighth Route Army, the Japanese and puppet troops had no resistance at all. Wherever the troops passed, the Japanese were killed and the puppet troops chose to surrender and be captured.

"Hahaha!"

Wang Tiezhu, Ge Dayong and his group, who had already arrived at the front line, looked at this scene and laughed happily.

"This battle is considered to be won!"

Wang Tiezhu couldn't help but sigh, "The specific course of the battle wasn't beyond my expectations. After all, we have more men and better weapons and equipment than the Japs, and we even have air support. What can the Japanese and puppet troops use to fight us?"

Hearing Wang Tiezhu's words, Ge Dayong also smiled and said, "Indeed, the support provided by the flight base to us before was limited, and we have never had any large-scale cooperation with the flight base."

"This battle has taught me the importance of air superiority."

"If the Air Force hadn't crippled the Japanese's three flight squadrons, the pilots would still be fighting the Japanese planes. They wouldn't be able to provide us with such powerful fire support."

"Secondly, the Japs' anti-aircraft firepower is the same as ours, almost nonexistent." Ge Dayong smiled and said, "This reminds me of what the brigade commander said. The reason why our battle with the Japs is so difficult isn't because they're so powerful."

"Compared with the world's top military powers, the Japanese, whose weapons and equipment seem very advanced to us, are actually at the level of a top military power during World War I."

"The reason why we are in such a difficult situation is that our country is weak and poor. Without industrialization, we are naturally unable to produce weapons and equipment. Let alone advanced ones, even ordinary conventional weapons and equipment cannot be supplied stably."

"Apart from weapons and equipment, our steel production and power generation, which represent our country's industrial strength, are very backward. We are a country with a large population and a large land area."

"Now, when we fight the Japanese, we only use some foreign trap weapons and equipment. When the number of people is similar, we can easily defeat the Japanese."

The representative of the 120th Division said nothing upon hearing this, but nodded silently in agreement.

Time passed little by little, and more than forty minutes passed in the blink of an eye. The sound of gunfire on the battlefield went from dense to sparse, and then to completely stopped. When cheers rang out, everyone smiled.

"Send a telegram to the brigade commander, saying that all 16,000 Japanese and puppet troops in Guangxian and Weixian have been eliminated!"

Wang Tiezhu shouted without even turning his head, then continued, "Order the motorcade and logistics troops to quickly move in. The logistics troops will be responsible for cleaning up the battlefield, handing over prisoners, and replenishing ammunition for each regiment."

"The motor vehicle regiment was split into two, with all troops following the order of 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc., restocking their ammunition and departing by vehicle heading south."

"The 1st and 2nd Regiments will attack Lingqiu from the direction of Nanzhen. The 3rd and 4th Regiments will attack Lingqiu from the direction of Zhiluo Village."

"The reconnaissance battalion, the Yuanxian Garrison Regiment, and the 1st Battalion of the 1st Artillery Regiment will attack Guangxian and Weixian."

"The Second Artillery Regiment followed the two regiments of the 120th Division of the Eighth Route Army and headed towards Lingqiu from the direction of Zhiluo Village."

The battle here is over, but the campaign is not over yet. There are still more than 5 Japanese and puppet troops fighting in the direction of Lingqiu County in the south with the five regiments of the Eighth Route Army's Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region and the troops directly under the headquarters of the Independent 1st Brigade.

Only when all these 20,000 Japanese and puppet troops are wiped out can this battle be considered completely over.

"Yes!"

Upon hearing Wang Tiezhu's order, the combat staff responded in unison, and then turned around to convey the order. Soon, a large number of communicators rushed out to convey the order to the battlefield.

Yuan County!

Li Mingqiang rushed in excitedly, holding a telegram from Wang Tiezhu, and said, "Brigade Commander, good news! Chief of Staff Wang and Deputy Brigade Commander Ge sent a telegram saying that the Japanese and puppet troops in Guangxian and Weixian have been completely wiped out."

"No one escaped, we kept them all." When saying this, Li Mingqiang could not hide the excitement and excitement on his face.

The battle started at around seven in the morning and featured an unprecedented victory for the Air Force, the complete annihilation of the Japanese and puppet troops in the Yungang direction, and now at two or three in the afternoon, the complete annihilation of the Japanese and puppet troops in the Guangxian and Weixian directions.

It can be said that the victories came one after another, it was really smooth.

Li Mingqiang, who witnessed the rise of the 1st Independent Brigade, can be said to have witnessed history again.

"so beautiful!"

Chu Feng was also very happy. He stood up excitedly and said, "Now the only Japanese and puppet troops left are from Lingqiu and the source."

"This time we have truly awakened that old devil, Terauchi Juichi. Soon, the Japanese and puppet troops in the direction of Lingqiu and Yuanyuan will retreat in large strides."

"Whether we can completely wipe them out again depends on Commander Yang Wu's command. Can he lead the five regiments of the Eighth Route Army to hold back more than 20,000 Japanese and puppet troops and buy time for the main force to encircle them?"

At this point, Chu Feng immediately said to Li Mingqiang, "Pass this news to Commander Yang Wu. Let them be happy, but also let them be mentally prepared."

"Yes, Brigadier!"

Li Mingqiang responded and turned to send a telegram.

A few minutes later, Li Mingqiang returned and handed a telegram to Chu Feng, saying, "Brigade Commander, Commander Yang Wu has called back, saying that even if he has to kill all five regiments, he will definitely keep all 20,000 Japanese and puppet troops."

Chu Feng believed in Commander Yang Wu's telegram and guarantee. To be more precise, he would believe it even if the person was not Commander Yang Wu, but anyone in the Eighth Route Army.

The reason why Chu Feng had dealings with the Eighth Route Army was that their bases were close to each other, and secondly, he believed that the Eighth Route Army would not let him down at a critical moment and would not stab him in the back.

If it was the National Government Army and the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army, Chu Feng would not believe it. Of course, if it was someone else, such as the boss of Suiyuan Province who has now gone to the Hetao area, he would also believe it.

Seven and a half steps!

While the 1st Independent Brigade was rejoicing, the North China Front Army Headquarters was filled with gloom.

General Terauchi Juichi didn't get angry, but sat there quietly, his face full of regret: "Regret, I regret it so much, I regret it so much, damn it!!!"
