Bright Sword: Construction starts from southeastern Shanxi

After hearing what the Deputy Chief of General Staff said, the entire command center burst into laughter.

Two o'clock in the morning on July 3rd.

Zeng Jiwen, Zhou Shi, Wang Zhuo and others were standing on the top of the mountain in Bei'an Village between Jiujie Township and Pingtan Town on the Zhengtai Line, looking at the Zhengtai iron wire below.

At this time, Zeng Jiwen looked at the railway wire mesh along the line below and the armored trains patrolling back and forth with a serious expression.

"Division Commander, the situation is fine. They have arrived. They are on the mountain opposite us. According to the plan, at 2:30, the 781st and 80th Regiments will cut off the line between Pingtan and Jiujie. At the same time, other troops have also taken up their positions on the Zhengtai Line, just waiting for the time to come." Wang Zhuo said to Zeng Jiwen after taking the telegram from the telegraph operator.

"Well, when the time comes, all units will attack immediately to cover Wang Zhan and his men as they enter and pass through the Zhengtai Line." Zeng Jiwen replied with relief after hearing Wang Zhuo's words.

As 2:30 a.m. approached, the area between Jiujie and Pingtan Town was suddenly filled with explosions. Soldiers from the 389th Division began to cut the barbed wire along the railway and clear the obstacles along the line.

At the same time, other units also began to attack other strongholds along the line, and suddenly the entire Zhengtai Line became lively again.

Soon, Yangquan and Taiyuan also received the news that the various strongholds on the Zhengtai Line were attacked, and quickly sent troops to provide support.

Okabe Naosaburo, who was hastily awakened, was immediately confused.

After hearing that the Zhengtai Line was attacked, I felt relieved. There was no need to think too much. It must have been the 389th Brigade. Oh no, now it was the 389th Division. Only Zeng Jiwen, this wicked guy, was thinking about how to launch a sneak attack on the locust army all day long and never engaged in a head-on decisive battle with the locust army.

However, the locust army has not transported any important supplies from the Zhengtai Line recently. In order to prevent the supplies for the First Army from being intercepted by the 389th Division, all the supplies of the First Army this time were transported to Taiyuan along the Tongpu Railway, and were directly transferred from the Northeast.

Therefore, for a moment, Okabe Naosaburo didn't know what Zeng Jiwen was up to. Without thinking much, he immediately ordered the defenders of Jinzhong and Yangquan to reinforce the attacked stronghold.

As the gap between Pingtan Town and Old Street was opened, on the hillside opposite Zeng Jiwen, a man in his early twenties immediately ordered the people below to light torches, place boxes on the horses, and immediately begin to cross the Zhengtai Line.

The entire crowd was probably more than 2,000 people, among whom one could vaguely see both men and women, many of whom were young people.

A young man in the crowd, wearing a pair of round glasses and holding a small box tightly in his arms, began to run towards the opposite side, panting, following the large group.

About half an hour later, everyone passed the Zhengtai Line safely. At this time, the young man leading the team began to jog towards Zeng Jiwen and others who were waiting at the intersection at the bottom of the mountain.

"Report to the division commander, Wang Zhan of the teaching regiment has arrived safely with the teaching regiment and technical support personnel and is here to report to you." The young man ran up to Zeng Jiwen and others and immediately saluted excitedly.

Zeng Jiwen returned the salute, letting the man calm down, then said happily, "Wang Zhan, you did a great job. I've been listening to what Commander He and Commander Xu have said along the way. It's been a thrilling journey, and you're the one who deserves the most credit!"

The young man shook his head and replied that it was all thanks to the soldiers.

Zeng Jiwen and the others smiled modestly, and then began to help everyone evacuate to the base with their belongings. At the same time, they did not forget to have the attacking troops remove the rails and sleepers along the route.

After all, the main purpose of coming out this time is to protect the group of people in front of us, but the consumed ammunition must be replenished, and the railway tracks on the Shota Line look pretty good.
