    As for the county armed forces, their equipment is even worse. There are not even many Jin-made rifles, and some are even equipped with Jin-made submachine guns that only have a few dozen rounds of ammunition. Once they are used up, there will be no room to replenish them. In order to prepare for this time  In the battle, the Jinsui Military Region integrated better equipment into the main force. In addition to training reasons, except for some harassment warfare and guerrilla warfare, these county and district local armed forces with poor equipment and insufficient training were afraid of fighting such a tough battle.  Powerless.

    Although the Jinsui Military Region, which was instructed by the central government to cooperate with the Anti-Japanese Alliance in the rescue operation, attached great importance to this rescue operation, under the circumstances that the main force could no longer be mobilized, it could only concentrate four independent battalions, plus some county armed forces, to personally take charge.  Under the urging of the old commander in command of Xingxian County, the acting commander gritted his teeth and deployed a main regiment plus two battalions of the Fourth Column.

    With so many troops mobilized, there is now only one main regiment left in the entire northwest of Shanxi. In fact, the entire northwest of Shanxi is now empty. If the Jinsui Army that has entered Fangshan County continues to move north, the entire southern part of northwest Shanxi will  Except for a main regiment left behind in Xing County, the gate was almost undefended.

    Although there are still several small groups in the hands of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Second and Fourth Divisions operating east of the Tongpu Railway, they are basically unable to cooperate because they do not have a direct contact code and do not know the area where the division headquarters is currently operating.  In this battle, not to mention the Jinsui Military Region, even their direct superior, the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, cannot find the headquarters of this military division.

    Although they are only separated by a road, the scale of the Japanese army's raids on southeastern and northeastern Shanxi last year was far larger than that of Shanxi-Suiyuan, especially Beiyue District in northeastern Shanxi, as well as the four Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei subdistricts operating in this area, as well as those to the north  The Second Division was the first to bear the brunt of the Japanese army's sweep of northeastern Shanxi.

    During the brutal raids by the Japanese army, the troops shrunk their organization and continued to disperse their activities. In addition, the radio station of the second division was damaged, and their immediate superiors could not contact them for a while. However, the commander of the eighth division this time never  Before returning from the front line, they sent people to the west of Lingjing between Shouyang and Dingxiang. Although they did not find the headquarters of the second and fourth divisions, they found a regiment of the second division operating in this area.

    This hot-tempered man didn't care whether the regiment leader wanted it or not, and whether he had orders from his superiors, he directly took them back to the west of Tongpu Road. They are currently stationed with the Jiaocheng Independent Battalion of the Eighth Division. If not  The group leader is also a bold guy, and with the boss's written order, he may not be able to bring him back.

    However, after talking about the current difficulties of the Jinsui Military Region, everyone's attention, including the acting commander of the Jinsui Military Region, turned to the six 76mm cannons and a tank battalion brought by Yang Jicai.  It's not like we can't fight these two counties, it just depends on the power of such a big guy like you.

    Yang Jicai received the looks of several people, but shook his head inwardly. It turned out that his plan was to concentrate the armed forces of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Military Region and launch an attack on Jingle and Lan counties, attracting the attention of the Japanese army, and covering his roundabout detachment.  Directly into Taiyuan, but now it seems that this hope is basically impossible.

    After hesitating for a moment, Yang Jicai pointed at the map and said with a wry smile: "Commanders, it's not that I am unwilling to contribute. I have no problem cooperating with you to attack these two counties. But this attack, involving both tanks and trucks, will definitely alarm us."  The Japanese army, and Jingle is not far from Taiyuan in a straight line. Once we appear in Jingle, everyone knows that our next target may be Taiyuan. "

    "In this way, there is no problem in the two counties, but what about the tasks assigned to us by the central government? Once the Japanese troops around us quickly reinforce Taiyuan, we will do this with just a few troops. I think this rescue operation should still be done  Mainly use surprise attacks, supplemented by strong attacks.¡±

    "How can I rescue those captured comrades in Taiyuan City? Tanks cannot climb the city wall. I only have one reinforcement regiment of infantry in my hands. Once the tactical plan is exposed, with the usual speed of action of the Japanese army, not only will I not be able to complete this task, but it will  It¡¯s easy to involve ourselves.¡±

    "My opinion is to concentrate the county armed forces and an artillery company to besiege Lan County. In this way, the Japanese troops in Jingle will inevitably come to rescue. We will concentrate part of the main force to set up an ambush between Lan County and Jingle, and ambush them during the movement.  , destroy this Japanese army, and at the same time cover our detachment and advance covertly towards Taiyuan."

    "In fighting this kind of battle, you leaders are experts. I don't need to say how to win. But I think the best way to fight this rescue battle is to move forward as concealed as possible. Once you get a hit, you can escape immediately. Absolutely not  We will fight to the death with the Japanese and puppet troops, let alone entangle with them. If taking these two counties will reveal our true intentions, then my opinion is to give up temporarily. "

    "If we can come back intact, I will cooperate with the leaders to capture these two counties when we return."??But before that, if it affects the progress of the battle, my opinion is to give up. We must not forget our main mission this time.  "

    "However, I suggest that it would be best if the two county towns could start at the same time as the Taiyuan battle to distract the Japanese army from Taiyuan. If this is not possible, we can adopt siege tactics to temporarily surround the Japanese army in the two county towns.  The district armed forces and the local militia are not good at fighting tough battles. I think there will be no problem in fighting this kind of siege battle. "

    Having said this, Yang Jicai pointed to the tanks and cars behind him and said to the commander of the Eighth Division: "Chief, I would like to ask, in addition to the highway between Lan County and Jingle, there are also other roads in Guanlui Mountain.  There are no roads for big guys like me, so it¡¯s okay for tanks, but mainly for cars.¡±

    "Our captured comrades have been detained in Japanese concentration camps for such a long time. Although they have not been killed, their bodies must be extremely weak. Even if I can rescue them, the speed of action will definitely be extremely slow. Without these  Trucks, I can't carry them out quickly."

    Regarding Yang Jicai's problem, he has been active in the area west of Taiyuan for a long time. He knows the terrain of this area very well. He doesn't even need to look at the map when fighting. He thought for a long time, but he shook his head and said: "Such a large number of trucks, I'm afraid there is no other way than to go."  There is no other way than the road.¡±

    "When the Japs carried out their sweeps, most of them were infantry. The number of motorized infantry transported by trucks was not large. Dozens of trucks were dispatched for each sweep, which is about the same, and they all relied on road marches to enter.  Fighting in the mountains is all about infantry.¡±

    "Even the few tanks dispatched are only a dozen or so. But the tanks of the Japs are much smaller than yours. Many of the tanks only have machine guns and no artillery. Oh, and their trucks are not as big as yours, good guys.  "This truck of yours is much bigger than the little devil's Type 94 truck."

    "If you want to make a quick assault, you can only take the Lanxian and Jingle highways. After arriving at Jingle, you can either go north through Xinxian, Gaocun, and Huangzhai to the outskirts of Taiyuan, or go south through Hujiazhuang, Loufan, and Lei  Jiazhuang, Gujiao, and Baijiazhuang are directly connected to the western mountains of Taiyuan. If you want to go through the mountains through the mountains, it may be difficult for these big guys like you. "

    "Although the Guanchuan Mountain is not high, it is quite steep. Although there are valleys that can be passed through, the truck may be too choked. And even if you want to walk up the mountain, you must go across Lan County to Fangshan, Jingle  The two highways leading to Gujiao, with so many tanks and cars, will also expose your whereabouts. "

    ¡°My suggestion is that instead of wasting time traveling over mountains and ridges, you should take advantage of the mobility of your cars and tanks, avoid fighting with the Japanese troops along the way, and drive straight into the western suburbs of Taiyuan at maximum speed.  I heard that the tank can run more than fifty kilometers an hour, and coupled with the speed of the car, I think it should be able to reach Taiyuan before the Japanese army reacts. "

    "Captain Yang, I think it's better for us to use the highway. Although there are a large number of Japanese strongholds along the way, you can forcefully rush over under the cover of tanks. The number of Japanese troops in these strongholds is not large now.  Most of them are puppet troops and do not pose much of a threat to your actions. "

    Yang Jicai thought about the suggestion of the commander of the Eighth Division for a long time before he raised his head and said to the acting commander: "Chief, I see it this way. You mobilize some county armed forces to surround Lan County and Jingle without attacking them.  Trapped first, gather some of the basic armed forces, set up an ambush between the two counties and pull out the Japanese stronghold on the road from Jingle to Lan County. "

    "In any case, first destroy one point between the two counties. I will leave you with an artillery squad, a 76mm cannon, two 14mm anti-aircraft machine guns, plus two recoilless  The artillery will cooperate with you in the battle. Chief, if there is really no second way to choose, then these strongholds along the highway will become obstacles in our retreat. "

    "We only have 200 trucks in hand, which can only carry some old people, women, children, and non-combatants who are too weak. The remaining people still have to march on foot. Once we attack Taiyuan City, the Japanese army will definitely pursue us. Even if  Even if we enter the mountains immediately, we may not be able to escape the pursuit of the Japanese army, so even if we do not capture the two counties first, all the strongholds along the highway must be eliminated before we evacuate. "

    "Except for the regiment in the 4th Division of Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Division, the two cadre battalions of the 8th Division of Shanxi-Suiyuan, and the two county brigades of Jinyuan and Xiyangqu County, I will not need any other troops for this operation for the time being. However,  Please contact the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region and ask them to look for the Fourth Division and cooperate with us. "

    "And the most critical thing is the intelligence on the various Japanese strongholds east of Tongpu Road and north of the Zhengtai Line, especially the independent mixed fourth brigade stationed in Yangquan. I am nowI don't expect them to be able to contain the main force of the Fourth Mixed Brigade in Yangquan, but I must at least be able to monitor their activities at any time.  "

    "As for this operation, I decided that after arriving in Taiyuan, I would use the two battalions that performed this mission, the 1st and 3rd Tank Company, to strengthen the two basic battalions of the 8th Division of Jinsui to attack the Zhenyuan Gate in the northwest corner of Taiyuan City.  , with the second company of tanks, an infantry battalion and the troops of the four divisions of Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei, seize the southwest line of Mengshan, Taishan, Longshan, and Xuanwengshan to protect the flanks of the troops and cut off the Japanese reinforcements along the Tongpu Railway  ¡±

    "The local armed forces in the Eighth District have seized the front line of Lieshi Mountain and Juiwei Mountain to support and cover our army's retreat. Chief, can we mobilize some animal-drawn vehicles from around Taiyuan to assist us in transportation, as well as the workers in Taiyuan who need to be rescued now?  I'd better have a grasp of the number and how many people there are so that I can make a thorough retreat plan."

    "I estimate that if you include family members, the number will not be too small. I feel that there will still be at least 10,000 people. Without a detailed evacuation plan for such a large number of people, it will be very easy to delay the chaos when the time comes.  Time, once bitten by the enemy, it is easy for so many non-combatants to make mistakes.
