"Sure enough, it is a good place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. The Eighth Route Army chose this mountainous area for its military factory. They must have made full preparations." Yoshimoto Zhenichi said.
As the commander of the First Army, Yoshimoto Sadaichi was supposed to be in Taiyuan City. Each unit on the front line has its own officers. They are all experienced soldiers, and it is said that there will be no major problems. But Yoshimoto Zhenyi was worried. After all, 100,000 troops were dispatched, just to completely wipe out the Lichang base area, completely destroy the Huangyadong military factory, and make the Eighth Route Army lose its military production capacity.
This is the first task of the First Army stationed in Shanxi. They have been unable to complete it, so they have mobilized other troops. If they cannot complete this task this time, then one can imagine how disappointed and angry Ningci, Gangcun, who is far away in Beiping, must be.
Yoshimoto Zhen came out in person, just to be safer. It's just that in order to ensure his safety, the 41st Division was exhausted. On the way forward, all the hills must be guarded properly, so as to prevent the Eighth Route Army from taking advantage of the loopholes. If a sharpshooter comes out, one shot at Yoshimoto Zhenyi is enough to make the First Army lose face. Think about what happened to their last commander, and think about this one again, can their First Army stay in Shanxi in the future?
As they gradually approached the Huangyadong Arsenal of the Eighth Route Army, the guards became more and more strict, but there was no large-scale exchange of fire between them. Standing on a high hill now, looking at the direction of the Huangyadong Arsenal from a distance, Yoshimoto Teichi began to feel emotional.
The Eighth Route Army is still very good at picking places.
Surrounded by high mountains, it is difficult to attack them upwards. If you want to enter the Huangyadong Armory, you have to go through the sky outside. That's pretty much the only way to go. The Eighth Route Army has already laid out a large number of fortifications there, and you can see from the telescope that many of them are machine gun positions, and even heavy machine guns are placed inside. Therefore, the Eighth Route Army also has great confidence in defending the Huangyadong Arsenal.
If the devils want to rush in, they don't know how much they will pay in casualties. Now looking at the scene over there with a telescope, Yoshimoto Teiichi couldn't help feeling, the mountains and rivers here are really magnificent, and the land here is so vast, it's all the territory of the empire! As long as the people here are conquered, that's enough.
Lieutenant General Qingshui Ruji was also looking there, his face becoming more and more serious. He said to Yoshimoto Zhenichi, "That's right, the Eighth Route Army chose this place very well. Even if our 41st Division wants to attack, it will pay a very high price, a price we cannot bear."
The little devil is good at fighting positional warfare. However, for different combat objectives, there are still different ways of fighting. In the past, they usually fought big cities. At that time, they were guarding the national army, and the combat effectiveness of the national army was obvious to all. So they took almost no effort. Although I have encountered several tough battles, the tanks and aircraft are big. Using them together, they even used naval guns to bombard the positions of the national army under powerful force. There's nothing they can't beat.
But now it is different. Now, the Eighth Route Army is in the valley. The devil's heavy weapons, such as tanks, cannot be activated at all. Originally, the plane was the best to use, but several air bombings ended in failure. The Eighth Route Army has deployed a considerable number of anti-aircraft weapons here, and has shot down the Devil's bombers several times. In order to solve the problem of being bombed, the Eighth Route Army even went to the Devil's aviation base and blew it upside down. So aviation is useless.
The little devils' artillery support is only left with their own cannons, but it's a pity that the caliber is not large. Therefore, it is still difficult to use enough violent artillery fire to make the Eighth Route Army surrender. The quality is not enough to make up the quantity, they must have enough quantity.
"Our radio positioning department has confirmed that the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army has been transferred to the Huangyadong Arsenal. This time we can just wipe them out completely." Qingshui said, this is good news.
"Yes, so we have changed our plan, the 21st Division and the 33rd Division. They are ending their mopping up operations, and come here quickly." Yoshimoto Sadaichi said: "We can completely solve Huangyadong within a week at most. The issue of the arsenal is settled once and for all."
The original plan has already been disrupted. When the 41st Division began to advance rapidly towards Huangyadong, the other divisions also hurried towards this side. Everyone wanted to fight at the Huangyadong Arsenal, especially Lieutenant General Sakurai Sh¨san was very enthusiastic about it.
After the 33rd Division entered the Licheng base area, it was resisted by the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side, and the loss was not small, which damaged their face. Third Lieutenant General Sakurai was quite dissatisfied with this. Fortunately, after the initial fierce battle passed, the rest went relatively smoothly, and the Eighth Route Army did not persevere, Not giving in, but gradually retreating, so that their 33rd Division can gradually advance. It's just that after pushing forward, no one can be seen at all, and no grain of food can be found, so so far, their three-light policy can't be implemented except for burning them all.
It makes them feel like a failure. However, it doesn't matter. As long as the Eighth Route Army at the Huangyadong Arsenal can be eliminated. Then they'll wash all the shame away. Thinking of this, Sakurai Shozo looked in the direction of Huangyadong Armory and ordered his subordinates to continue on their way.
The devil suddenly changed his sweeping strategy and headed in the direction of the Huangyadong Arsenal, which aroused the concern of others.
Kong Jie smoked his own pipe, looked at the rolling hills, and kept thinking. The people around him were too embarrassed to disturb him, and just like that, Kong Jie finished smoking a whole pipe and knocked the ash inside on the ground. Then he said to himself: "What kind of ability does Li Yunlong have? He actually wants to wipe out the three divisions of the devils. If Li Yunlong really let him do it, I will be even less able to hold my head up in front of him in the future. I can do it Think of the ugly face of that kid when he showed off."
"Commander, shall we chase after him?" the battalion commander beside him asked him.
"Of course, the Huangyadong Armory is our lifeblood. If something happens to the arsenal, our Eighth Route Army's strength will be greatly lost. The superior ordered us to stand by on the periphery, and we can't just watch. However, we Instead of conflicting with the devils, just move towards the back mountain of Huangya Cave. If Huangya Cave can't hold it, they will definitely retreat from the direction of the back mountain. His grandma, I have to rescue Li Yunlong when the time comes, he Li Yunlong has to thank Lao Tzu."
Thinking of this, Kong Jie felt at ease.
Is there any coup, can't you say it in advance? What is frightening is that Kong Jie is quite dissatisfied now. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
