Bright Sword: Construction starts from southeastern Shanxi

At about four o'clock, Kenji Doihara received a report from Yoshio Kamitsuki that the two regiments he sent to support Jingxing had lost contact and had sent a search team to conduct reconnaissance.

After seeing the report from Shangyue Liangfu, Kenji Doihara understood that these two battalions of locust soldiers had probably been surrounded by the Eighth Route Army. It was over!

Now Kenji Doihara is completely certain that Zeng Jiwen had probably started to set his sights on Shijiazhuang ever since that idiot Yuan decided to start a large-scale sweep of the Eighth Route Army in Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei.

Looking at the battle report of the locust army in southeastern Shanxi and Zeng Jiwen's troops, Kenji Doihara immediately urged the signalman to urge the General Staff of the North China Front Army to send the recent battle reports from Shanxi, Chahar and Hebei immediately.

After more than half an hour, Kenji Doihara finally received the battle report from the North China Front Army on Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei.

Looking at the battle report between the North China Front Army and the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Eighth Route Army, Kenji Doihara's heart was completely at peace.

In the early stage, most of the locust troops of the next regiment of the 110th Division were surrounded and annihilated in Quyang by the Eighth Route Army of Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei.

The 136th Regiment under the 109th Division in Wutai suffered heavy losses, and other regiments also suffered heavy casualties.

At the same time, the main force of Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei assembled in Laiyuan and wiped out two battalions of the 2nd Independent Mixed Brigade in Zhangjiakou. The brigade commander, Kanji Tsuneoka, led a battalion to seek revenge on the Eighth Route Army of Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei, but he was ambushed by a regiment of the Eighth Route Army in Feihu Valley and his entire army was wiped out.

Now, the temporary commander of the Mongolian Corps, Jun Hougong, has withdrawn the 26th Division and the 2nd Independent Mixed Brigade to Datong and Zhangjiakou.

He still couldn't understand that there were no reinforcements around Shijiazhuang except the 110th Division.

The 108th Division on the Zhengtai Line was thankful that it was not completely wiped out by Zeng Jiwen's troops.

As for the 4th Independent Mixed Brigade in Yun County, to be honest, when Kenji Doihara first heard the news that the 4th Independent Mixed Brigade and the 110th Division surrounded the three main regiments of the Eighth Route Army in the First Division of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Region and then destroyed them, he was a little bit unbelievable.

As an expert on China, Kenji Doihara not only understood the National Army, but also recently, thanks to Zeng Jiwen's 389th Division, he had also collected some intelligence on other Eighth Route Army units.

When he heard the news, Kenji Doihara's first reaction was that Shimizu and Ishii were probably lying about their military achievements.

How is it possible to annihilate three regiments of the Eighth Route Army?

But the corpses of the Eighth Route Army soldiers in the subsequent battlefield photos undoubtedly told him that this was true.

Therefore, Kenji Doihara temporarily suppressed the authenticity of the news from his heart.

But he still had some doubts. When the main force of Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei wiped out two battalions of the locust army in Laiyuan, Kenji Doihara's doubts became even more serious.

Judging from the experience of fighting with Zeng Jiwen's troops, unless the locust army can find all the nearby tunnel exits, it will be difficult to encircle the large forces of the Eighth Route Army.

Moreover, according to the battle report of the North China Front Army, it was obvious that the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei side was also learning from Zeng Jiwen's troops. How could it be possible that three regiments of the Eighth Route Army were surrounded and unable to break out?

Suddenly, he remembered what Xiangyue Qingji had done before, that is, the number of locust army equipment, weapons and ammunition intercepted by Zeng Jiwen on the Zhengtai Line and reported to the North China Front Army. The three words "Fuck you" suddenly emerged in his mind.

Looking at the casualties of the two brigades, Kenji Doihara suddenly felt something was wrong.

Then he found the detailed battle reports of the two brigades. When he saw that more than a thousand people of the Imperial Army puppet army in Yun County were wiped out by the "Eighth Route Army", he burst into laughter.
