"read."

Inaba Ichiro said angrily.

The telegram was sent by the 35th Division stationed in Xinxiang. It was said that the Okamoto Detachment stationed in Jiaozuo had set off.

The Okamoto Detachment is a reinforcement brigade with about 1,500 people. They are here to replace Jincheng's defense. It is also an important part of the Eighth Route Army.

Behind the Okamoto Detachment, there are also the Shipover Force (equivalent to the mixed brigade), with a total of 7,000 people. Their mission is to attack the Eighth Route Army with Jincheng as the starting point.

This Shipse Force is the strongest offensive mixed formation of the Japanese army. The commander is Major General Shipse Force Firefu.

They followed the Pinghan Line and conquered Baoding, Shijiazhuang, Anyang, Xinxiang and other places, and fought to the Yellow River. Finally, they entered Jiaozuo.

However, all of these troops were in front of the front. The real main force was the 35th Division, with a total of 20,000 people.

The 35th Division did not belong to the jurisdiction of the First Army of Shanxi. Instead, it belonged to the North China Front Army. Telegrams sent from the 35th Division indicated that Tanaka Qingyuan's clear-coded telegram had alarmed the North China Front Army.

This is no longer a matter for Yoshio Shinozuka. Tada Jun has also intervened. He is Yoshio Shinozuka's boss.

The opponent of the Japanese army is not a part of the Eighth Route Army.

It's all the Eighth Route Army!

It is all the Eighth Route Road around Taihang Mountain!

The entire Sakata United team was broken!

The entire Suzuki Detachment is broken! (The devils don’t know that Suzuki Sotaro is still alive).

Tanaka Qinghara said goodbye.

This made the top leaders of the Japanese army feel uncomfortable and deeply felt the threat of the Eighth Route Army.

Now, they are going to counterattack wildly, take this opportunity to seize the main force of the Eighth Route Army, and then eliminate it in one fell swoop. Therefore, in addition to the 36th Division in Luyang, the 41st Division from Linfen, the 32nd Division from Yangquan, the 20th Division from Yuncheng, the 35th Division from Xinxiang, the 39th Division from Anyang, and the 108th Division from Shijiazhuang, all participated in it.

Even the 109th Division, which was originally planning to return to China to reorganize, was temporarily intercepted in Tianjin and prepared to join the battle.

The 26th Division, which was far away in Datong, belonged to the Manchu and Mongolian Legion, had also quietly moved south.

In addition, there are a large number of mixed brigades and multiple cavalry corpses, all of which have been involved in the so-called "public security" war.

No senior Japanese army executive would think that this is a contest of the same level. They are just "clearing down". Therefore, this is a battle to "clear public security" rather than an attack war.

The purpose of this battle is to completely eliminate the Eighth Route Army in Taihang Mountains.

After clearing the Eighth Route Army in Taihang Mountains, the Eighth Route Army in Hebei and Shandong will be destroyed.

After Tada Jung-chan and Yoshio Shinozuka talked on the phone, they agreed that the source of all "security chaos" came from the Taihang Mountains.

Therefore, we must take this opportunity to use our troops to surround the Taihang Mountains and eliminate the Eighth Route Army in one fell swoop.

Tada Jun said that when necessary, he would ask Central China for help.

The 34th Division and 37th Division of the Central China Expeditionary Army can also go north to support the war at any time.

The 13th Division, the top main force in the battle in central China, can also be drawn if necessary.

In short, be sure to achieve your full results!

"Children Colonel, Okamoto's detachment has 20 hours to reach Jincheng," said the communication officer.

"Twenty hours..." Inaba Ichiro nodded thoughtfully.

It seems that the marching speed of the Okamoto Detachment is indeed very fast and worth learning.

But Ichiro Inaba is not going to meet with the other party.

It was mainly the death of Chief of Staff Goro Okamoto. He was the younger brother of Okamoto Saburo Okamoto.

They also have an older brother, Major General Taro Okamoto, the brigade commander of the Fifth Mixed Brigade.

Goro Okamoto died in battle, and his two brothers were eager to avenge him.

It is inevitable that Ichiro Inaba will blame him.

"What else?" Inaba Ichiro asked a little depressedly.

The communication officer continued: "The commander of the division commander ordered us to speed up the marching. Be sure to arrive at Gaoping before 5 pm. Otherwise, military law will be carried out."

"Five o'clock in the afternoon." Inaba Ichiro looked at his pocket watch angrily.

Time is tight.

There is no time to eliminate these guerrillas.

He dared not disobey the orders of the division commander. Because everyone knows that Wu Yunan must be in a bad mood now.

Nobute Sakata is his subordinate.

Suzuki Sotaro is his subordinate.

Tanaka Aohara is also his subordinate.

All Japanese troops that suffered severe damage were affiliated with the 36th Division. It can be imagined that the 36th Division has become the focus of attention of all parties. If you are not careful, the division commander will have to apologize.

Idiots know that before Wu Ya Nan's caesarean section, she would never mind sending a group of people to the Yasukuni Shrine to the bottom of her.

If anyone loses the link at this sensitive time...

The outcome can be imagined!

"Call back!" Inaba Ichiro said angrily, "Execute the order immediately."

"Hayi!" The communication officer turned around and went.

Inaba Ichiro raised his telescope in disappointment and looked at the west side of the road.

There are guerrillas there.

They certainly haven't gone far.

Unfortunately, I don’t have time to deal with them. But there is still a chance in the future.

After completing the task of reinforcement of Gao Ping, kill a retaliation immediately and kill all the anti-Japanese armed forces and the red elements, burn them all!

This time, the large-scale siege of the Imperial Army not only eliminated the Eighth Route Army in Taihang Mountains, but also created a large number of unmanned areas and dealt with all the people in the mountain.

Without the common people, the Eighth Route Army would have no possibility of survival and development. In the end, they could only wait for death helplessly.

Therefore, Ichiro Inaba insisted that killing is the best solution to the problem. If you kill all the people, the Eighth Route Army will be finished.

"Send the order!"

"Continue to head towards Gaoping!"

Inaba Ichiro issued an order. After a while, the Japanese and puppet troops set out on the road.

After half an hour, all the trucks gradually disappeared. The Japanese took away their own bodies, but threw the puppet army's bodies in place.

This is also the usual practice.

This is how the puppet army treated.

Otherwise, there would not be so many puppet troops who secretly contacted the Eighth Route Army and abandoned the secret and turned to the light.

However, it is still February 1940. The Japanese were still very arrogant and had unprecedented strength. The puppet army dared not make any small moves.

After 1944, almost all the Japanese had to be guarded against two enemies: the first was the enemy outside, including the Eighth Route Army and the National Army. The second was the puppet army around them. Everyone knew that the puppet army was unreliable. God knew when they would shoot themselves!

"Set off!"

Yang Yue also waved his hand and led the guerrillas to Jincheng.

Unfortunately, his tricycle was ridden by the Japanese.

I had to walk.

Fortunately, it is not very far from Jincheng.

The guerrillas have no other skills, but their skills on the feet are very strong. Even if they do not have transportation, the march is very fast.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Ichiro Inaba led his troops to successfully arrive in Gaoping Castle.

At the same time, Yang Yue also brought the guerrillas to the periphery of Jincheng.
Chapter completed!
