War of Resistance: Wipe out a Japanese infantry battalion at the start.

"Nani?!!!"

The Lieutenant General Chief of Staff, who had just turned around and was about to leave, was stunned when he heard what General Terauchi Hisaichi said, and his steps to leave also stopped.

Then he turned around, looked at his commander, and asked, "Commander, are you saying that these Chinese troops who keep sweeping us are not the Tubalu as we think, but someone else?"

At this point, the Lieutenant General Chief of Staff pointed to the west and said, "You suspect it's Chu Feng's Independent 1st Division?"

Hearing the Chief of Staff's words, General Terauchi Hisaichi nodded slightly and said, "Yoshi, the reason I have this suspicion is because this battle went so smoothly."

"We are well aware of the Mongolian army's combat effectiveness. It's not high, but it won't be defeated in half an hour."

"The Eighth Route Army's combat effectiveness is indeed very strong, especially their fighting spirit."

"But their disadvantage is also obvious, that is, their weapons and equipment are not strong, which leads to their weak combat effectiveness."

"But now, more than 10,000 people were captured in less than half an hour. I am a little suspicious." General Terauchi Hisaichi's words were also full of confusion.

“Souga!!”

Hearing General Terauchi Hisaichi's doubts, the Lieutenant General Chief of Staff couldn't help but nod.

Indeed, capturing more than 10,000 people in half an hour is very problematic.

"Your Excellency Commander!"

However, the Lieutenant General Chief of Staff soon thought of another point and said, "The Mongolian Army is not the Imperial Japanese Army, regardless of combat effectiveness or fighting spirit."

"And they're using a deliberate attack against an unintended one. Combined with previous investigations and intelligence gathered from all sides, this Eighth Route Army unit has formidable firepower."

"The reason the battle ended in half an hour is most likely because the Mongolian army surrendered."

"Even if Chu Feng's 1st Independent Division came, they have strong combat capabilities, but they can't completely wipe out this unit in half an hour."

"Even if the Imperial Japanese Army came and wanted to end the battle in half an hour, the Mongolian army would have to surrender on their own, not be completely wiped out by us."

Having said that, the Lieutenant General Chief of Staff paused again and continued: "Besides that, I have another question, that is why did Chu Feng split up the troops and put them behind us?"

"This is obviously a thankless task!"

"The core combat strength of the 1st Independent Division is its powerful air force, dense artillery fire and strong firepower. Fighting behind enemy lines means throwing away these advantages."

"If it were me, with the powerful firepower of the 1st Independent Division, I would quietly accumulate strength and engage in a large-scale battle with the front army, securing victory in one fell swoop and thus taking these places."

"Instead of deploying troops behind enemy lines with outdated weapons and equipment."

"Once we deploy more troops, it will be easy to cause them massive casualties. This clearly shows that the income is not proportional to the investment!"

General Terauchi Hisaichi was also puzzled by the Chief of Staff's words: "Yoshi, this is also why I can't figure it out."

General Terauchi Shouichi said irritably, "I also think that Chu Feng's actions are obviously a waste of time and energy."

At this point, General Terauchi Juichi looked at the Lieutenant General Chief of Staff and said, "Chief of Staff, go to the Mongolian troops and convey my ideas to them."

"In the next sweep, we must not let the Mongolian army act alone. It is best to coordinate and act together to prevent the Eighth Route Army from defeating them one by one."

Upon hearing this order, the Lieutenant General Chief of Staff nodded without hesitation and said, "Hi, Commander. I will give you instructions after daybreak and we will depart tomorrow morning."

After saying this, the Lieutenant General Chief of Staff left in a hurry.

"Ugh!!!"

Watching the Chief of Staff leave, General Terauchi Hisaichi couldn't help but sigh.

To be honest, he has been under a lot of pressure recently.

As Chu Feng's Independent 1st Division was constantly investigated through various means during this period, or as he learned some fragmentary information about the Independent 1st Division, he realized that the strength of this opponent was constantly growing.

Especially the eastward battle more than a month ago, in which five county towns were captured with ease. If Chu Feng had not thought of expanding the battle, it would have been more than just five county towns.

In addition, the Eighth Route Army suddenly began to increase its actions, not only this time against the troops stationed in Mongolia, but also in other places.

The situation on the front battlefield was not so bad. The main forces of the Second War Zone were compressed by him in western Shanxi and Zhongtiao Mountain area.

Overall, the North China Front Army still has the advantage.

But they only had the advantage. They tried many times to capture the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army and the Chinese troops in Zhongtiao Mountain, but to no avail.

He had originally planned to cooperate with the Central China Front Army to see if he could achieve some results in other battlefields. However, at present, due to the rise of Chu Feng's Independent 1st Division, he is powerless.

The entire North China Front Army fell into a dilemma. If they were unable to deal with Chu Feng's Independent 1st Division, their main force would be tied up and they would not dare to do anything big.

Because this is a time bomb, you don't know when it will explode.

As long as Terauchi Hisaichi dares to withdraw most of his troops to launch a major attack southward, Chu Feng will dare to bring the Independent 1st Division to launch a major attack on him.

For General Terauchi Juichi, Chu Feng was the sword of Damocles hanging over his head.

He wanted to realize his ambitions, but he couldn't do anything until he got rid of Chu Feng, the thorn in his side.

Wrong!

It’s so frustrating! ! !

“Bagya Road!!!”

General Terauchi Hisaichi couldn't help but curse. He really wanted to kill Chu Feng with one shot, but unfortunately, this was unrealistic.

"How about sending a large number of assassination troops to assassinate Chu Feng?"

Feeling depressed, an idea suddenly came to General Terauchi Juichi's mind.

As soon as this thought came to mind, General Terauchi Hisaichi could no longer suppress his emotions.

"Assassination?"

"Maybe it will work. Chu Feng is the core of the 1st Independent Division. Once something happens to him, the entire 1st Independent Division will fall apart."

"By then, not only will the 1st Independent Division be in internal strife, but the Eighth Route Army, the Second War Zone, the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army, and the Nationalist government will not miss out."

"Chu Feng is still alone, unmarried, and childless."

After thinking carefully, General Terauchi Juichi made up his mind. He thought for a while, turned around and walked to the desk, picked up the phone on the table and shook it.

"Call the Special High Technology Department people over here!"

After General Terauchi Juichi finished speaking, he hung up the phone, thought for a moment, then picked up the pen beside him and began to write.

More than ten minutes later, there was a burst of hurried footsteps, followed by a knock on the door.

General Terauchi Juichi also put down the pen in his hand, raised his head and said, "Come in!"

"Your Excellency Commander!"

As General Terauchi Hisaichi finished speaking, the door was pushed open and the head of the Special High Technology Department pushed the door open and came in.

The head of the Special High Technology Department had not gone to bed yet. After receiving the call, he hurried over.

"I called you here because I have something to entrust to you!"

Looking at the head of the Special High Technology Department, General Terauchi Hisaichi didn't waste any words and went straight to the point, saying: "Chu Feng has become a major threat to our Great Japanese Empire."

"Since Chu Feng has no children and is not married, if he were to be assassinated, the entire Independent 1st Division would be leaderless."

"At that time, the seemingly powerful 1st Independent Division will fall into internal strife and will no longer pose any danger to us."

"Select a group of elite soldiers and form several assassination teams to approach Chu Feng through various means."

"I only have one request, as long as Chu Feng can be killed, that's all."

After hearing what General Terauchi Hisaichi said, the head of the Special High Technology Department, who was originally confused and didn't know what the commander wanted to talk about, became solemn and ugly.

"Hi Yi!"

The head of the Special High Technology Department agreed at first, then thought for a moment and said, "Commander, Chu Feng's whereabouts have always been kept secret, and it's difficult for our people to get close to him."

"We at the Special High Technology Department have been trying assassinations for a long time, but we have never been successful."

"Their internal defense is very strict and their counter-espionage awareness is very strong. Many of our elites have been killed in this."

"I can't guarantee the success of this mission, I can only say that I will do my best." Although I don't know why the commander suddenly came up with such an idea.

But the head of the Special High Technology Department also felt that he should make his words clearer so that he would not become the scapegoat.

The evasive words of the head of the Special High Technology Department made General Terauchi Hisaichi frown slightly.

However, he didn't get angry.

He also knew that if Chu Feng was really easy to assassinate, he would not have been allowed to develop to this point.

"吆西!"

General Terauchi Juichi nodded and said to the head of the Special High Technology Department, "Just do your best. If you succeed, that's fine. If you don't, that's fine too."

"But I still hope you won't be perfunctory. If you succeed, I will personally recommend you for the credit and guarantee your promotion to major general. Within ten years, I will promote you to lieutenant general."

Now General Terauchi Hisaichi has run out of tricks and can only resort to these despicable means.

In order to make my subordinates work hard, I can only give these guarantees.

As a Japanese nobleman and a general, if he really wants to support someone to become a general or even a lieutenant general, it is not impossible.

"Hi Yi!"

The head of the Special High Technology Department did not expect that General Terauchi Hisaichi would invest so much money.

He felt that he still had a chance if he worked hard for a few years, but it would be difficult to become a major general.

He was tempted if he could complete this task and become General Terauchi Hisaichi's man.

"Commander, I will select elite personnel to carry out this mission!"

Hearing the words of the head of the Special High Technology Department, General Terauchi Hisaichi nodded with satisfaction. He waved his hand and said, "Okay, go get down to work!"

"I'll talk to the Chief of Staff and get 50 yen approved for you this time."

"Hi Yi!"

Upon hearing this, the head of the Special High Technology Department smiled, quickly bent down again and responded, then turned and left.

Regardless of whether the mission can be completed or not, the 50 yen is real money, and he can get a share of it more or less.

Of course, he can also make some extra money on a daily basis, after all, he is one of the leaders of the North China Special High Technology Bureau.

You can still get filial piety from your subordinates, but at this time no one will complain that the money they get is too little.

After the head of the Special High Technology Department left, General Terauchi Hisaichi went to the telegraph room again.

A secret telegram was sent back to the country via radio waves.

Sending someone to assassinate Chu Feng is one option, but General Terauchi Hisaichi did not place all his hopes on the Special High Technology Bureau.

As an imperial noble, he naturally has channels and capabilities in the country, and he plans to find a group of killers from the country.

These people have always been the death squads kept by various nobles and royal families, and they are professionals in assassination.

After doing all this, General Terauchi Hisaichi could finally breathe a sigh of relief and go to rest.

There was no conversation that night, but this night was destined to be restless.

It wasn't just the 1st, 2nd and 4th teams that took action tonight; the other five teams also did something to a greater or lesser extent.

However, compared with the battle results in Lesheng Town, the results of the other five detachments were much smaller.

The next day, day broke.

The eight detachments that had been making a fuss all night long all retreated.

The Japanese and puppet troops, who had been harassed for a whole night, began to count the casualties of the previous night in exhaustion, because what happened last night also disrupted the large-scale mopping-up plans of various troops.

In addition, with the order from the North China Front Command, the troops stationed in Mongolia also issued an order, asking them to wait where they were and wait for the next order before taking action.

"Captain, the supplies for the 2nd and 4th detachments have been sent out."

"The Second and Fourth Detachments also sent people to support." At the First Detachment Headquarters, a combat staff officer loudly reported to the team leader Liu Yiyun who was having breakfast.

"Yes, Not Bad!"

Hearing the combat staff's answer, Liu Yiyun smiled and nodded: "Let them come and pick them up themselves, otherwise these guys will hold my people hostage again."

learn from mistakes!

Liu Yiyun didn't want his people to be temporarily detained by the brother troops with various lame excuses.

His team has a lot of people, but you borrow a little, I borrow a little, who can bear it!

As he spoke, Liu Yiyun finished the porridge in the bowl and stuffed the steamed bun into his mouth.

"Old Liu, the prisoners have also been sent away. They will be taken over by the comrades from the division headquarters in the afternoon."

Captain Gao also came back at this time. He took an empty bowl, poured himself a bowl of porridge, and held a steamed bun in one hand. He came to Liu Yiyun and sat down and said.

"Sending these people away will not burden us."

Liu Yiyun nodded when he heard this, then turned to look at Captain Gao and said, "Old Gao, let's replace the weapons and equipment we seized last night with the replacement regiment first!"

"How about aligning your weapons and equipment with ours?"

"no problem!"

Hearing Liu Yiyun's words, Captain Gao was slightly stunned. After he reacted, he smiled and nodded.

The weapons and equipment of the Supplementary Regiment were considered good among the Eighth Route Army troops, but compared with the eight detachments of the Independent 1st Division, they were really nothing.

Once equipped, it will become the regiment with the strongest firepower among all the main forces of the Eighth Route Army.

What objection could Captain Gao have? Of course he agreed wholeheartedly.
