Pingan County.

In the command room of the Japanese spring offensive, the sound of telegraphs never stopped from the moment they started.

In the command room, there was a sand table on the rectangular table. Anbian Xiongtian had a solemn expression on his face, and his vicious eyes were staring at the location of Taigu County.

His eyes kept scanning the surrounding strongholds and every road leading to Taigu County. At this moment, a Japanese soldier walked into the command room with a telegram in his hand.

The sound rang in the ears of Xiongtian on the shore.

"Taigu County fell, and all 1,200 members of Aihara's army on the shore were killed in action."

A Japanese soldier bent his body, stretched his hands straight, and kept his head down, not daring to raise it, because the troops destroyed were the commander-in-chief's own direct troops, and they had just been transferred from Yuancheng not long ago. He didn't dare to move until Xiongtian on the shore received the telegram.

Snapped!

But when Kishibe Yuta heard this, he took off his gloves and threw them hard on the sand table, knocking down a flag that was stuck on the high ground of the sand table.

At this moment, his face was ferocious, with his hands on the table, as if he was not satisfied at all, and he slapped it hard again.

Veins popped out of Anbian Xiongtian's face, half of his face was red and almost blue, and his eyes were fixed on the location of Taigu County.

This is clearly in the rear of the occupied area. To capture Taigu County, it believes that the enemy's combat strength must be at least more than 5,000 people. This is even the number of people besieging Taigu County. If the support from the surrounding areas is taken into account, to capture Taigu County, at least more than 20,000 people are needed.

Because there are teams guarding every road and every intersection in the rear.

If a war breaks out, it will definitely be known, but the time from when he learned that Taigu County was attacked to when it fell happened too quickly.

Moreover, this area today seemed to have received unified instructions, and almost everyone was fighting a blocking battle, as if they had already planned to attack Taigu County.

However, from the intelligence he obtained and the surveillance in various places, he did not find any clues.

"Let the reinforcements... stop..." said Kishibe Yuta gritting his teeth.

Taigu County has now fallen, and any reinforcements sent now will only result in being surrounded and attacked.

However, he must take back Taigu County, because the destruction of another of his own troops is undoubtedly a slap in the face, and the geographical location is like a knife in the heart.

The troops of the entire spring offensive dared not act rashly, because if they could capture Taigu County, they would dare to capture other surrounding strongholds.

Not only did the offense fail to meet standards, but something also happened on the flank, which was unacceptable to him.

more importantly.

Less than a month after Yuta Kishibe arrived in northwestern Shanxi, his five direct troops lost three infantry battalions!

Moreover, these three battalions, which had the foundation of the Kwantung Army, were annihilated so easily.

"Order the 4th Brigade's Pinglu Yongfu and the Kuroshima Cavalry Regiment to move to Heian County." Kishibe Yuta said viciously.

Now he didn't care about waiting for the snow to melt. Even if the road was muddy, he was determined to take back Taigu County and wipe out these bugs at the same time.

"Yes!" After receiving the order, the Japanese soldier who had been holding the telegram nodded heavily and began to issue the order.

Xiongtian on the shore looked at the location of Taiko County, his hands clenched tightly, and his blood vessels were clearly visible.

His own direct line was originally prepared to be the trump card for the spring offensive, but in the end, three battalions were lost before the spring offensive even began.

If this continues, how can he have the face to return to the three northeastern provinces?

The fewer direct descendants there are now, the less say the spring commander-in-chief has. When he thought of this, Kishibe Yuta's face became even gloomier.

If this continues, not only will he lose his position as the commander-in-chief of the spring offensive, but the loss of his own troops will make his voice in northwestern Shanxi increasingly weak.

Even if he returned to the three northeastern provinces, he would not be able to face his superiors.

......

Yang Xianling, inside the headquarters command room.

"Boss, if we keep fighting like this, I'm afraid many of the troops in northwest Shanxi will be dispersed. At Shiwuli Xiaomiao, the 772nd Regiment suffered heavy casualties and even encountered mechanized Japanese troops heading towards Yuancheng."

"Here, and here, we are fighting very hard. We won't be able to fight for long if we continue like this. The Japanese can hold us back, but they can't."

In the headquarters command room, a staff officer, after sorting out some data and intelligence reported from various places, had a serious conversation with a man in a military coat.

"It's not us who should be anxious, but these devils. The more fiercely and anxiously they fight, the more necessary it is for us to stop them. Blocking battles and ambushes are always easier to fight than encounter battles. Although we can't match the devil's firepower, we can find favorable terrain."

When saying this, the man in the military coat spoke calmly, but his expression was very solemn.

Because he knew that this was also a helpless move.

After all, the gap between us and the Japanese is there, but what if we don’t fight the people behind us?

When he thought of this, his eyes were always fixed on Taigu County.

"The latest intelligence we've received is that Taigu County has been captured, and the Japanese troops in various locations have begun to evacuate. It's been confirmed that it was Captain Lin who was responsible!"

Song Yi almost ran into the command room, holding a telegram in his hand, his face full of excitement. This was a recovery, a recovery that would be recorded in the history of resistance.

Taikoo County was taken down?

After these words were spoken, the staff officers who had just been speaking in the command room looked somewhat incredulous.

"it is good!!"

The man in the military coat clapped his hands, a hint of excitement on his face.

Then he walked to the table with the map and pointed at Taigu County and spoke again.

"This sword is directly inserted into the devil's heart. Let's see whether the devil will care about the head or the tail."

The boss's voice came again, the joy in his tone was obvious, and the solemnity just now disappeared at this moment.

The capture of Taigu County, which was done right behind the Japanese's flank and right under their noses, was undoubtedly a heavy blow to the Japanese.

How could the Japanese sleep well when a team that could capture a city appeared behind their backs?

"Boss, this is the enemy's rear. Although we've taken it, it will be difficult to hold it. Besides, the enemy should have built an airport in this area. The speed of supporting the battlefield will not exceed one hour at most."

Although Song Yi was very happy, he remained rational about the war situation. After looking at Taigu County on the map and seeing some markings, he gave a reminder.

According to the intelligence from the informant and the news from the front, the Japanese mechanized troops have arrived.

On various fronts, Japanese planes began to appear frequently over many bases.

Taigu County is in the Japanese-occupied area and there are no troops nearby. Even if they want to provide support, it will be difficult to provide large-scale support. Even if they have taken the county, it seems impossible to hold on to it.

"Staff Officer Song, there's no need to look too far ahead when it comes to some things. We should also look at the surface. Taigu County, which is behind the enemy lines, has been taken down by us!"

"Think about it, the Japanese were claiming a few days ago that they would take over northwest Shanxi in three months, but what about now? What have we done? As for this victory, the soldiers and the people saw that on the fourth day you mentioned, Taigu County was captured by us! They probably didn't intend to defend it, otherwise, they wouldn't have chosen to attack the Acropolis..."

The man in the military coat spoke to Song Yi in a calm tone.

In his opinion, this battle gave hope to the anti-Japanese forces in northwest Shanxi and reassured the people.

Let everyone see that the Japanese claim that they could conquer northwestern Shanxi in three months was nothing but empty talk.

After all, they did capture a county town from the Japanese.

"really..."

Song Yi suddenly seemed to have thought of something and murmured softly.

Surrounded by the Japanese in northwest Shanxi, under heavy siege, a team was able to capture Taigu County in the Japanese-occupied area, which naturally invisibly infected every anti-Japanese team.

The Japanese are not invincible.

"The units engaged in the blocking battle can withdraw and find their own opportunities to attack the enemy's transportation lines. Pay more attention to the enemy's mechanized forces and avoid them. The next step depends on when Lin Tianchen will make his move."

"Yes!" Song Yi nodded heavily after hearing this.

In the headquarters meeting room, after Song Yi left, the figure in the military coat once again stopped at the map and thought.

"After Taikoo County... the next step is probably to mobilize and break the encirclement..."

The old general's gaze gradually fell on Ping'an County. Now there are chaos everywhere, wars and conflicts are endless, and the waters have been muddied.

Breaking the encirclement is just an appearance; the real purpose has not changed from the beginning to the end.

Ping'an County is their main attraction, but he has not yet figured out how Lin Tianchen plans to take over Ping'an County.

But at the moment, he has not yet grasped Lin Tianchen's strategic intentions.

Based on his understanding of Lin Tianchen, he would definitely not attack Ping'an County head-on.

"As long as you mobilize..." The man in the coat in front of the map had a cold look in his eyes.

If he had the chance, he would naturally settle accounts with Kishibe Yuta for the numerous bloody crimes committed outside the pass.
