Chapter 273
Northwest Shanxi, 358 Regiment Headquarters.
Chu Yunfei is preparing to launch a major offensive to recover Dagu Town.
Chu Yunfei said to the sand pan: "Brother Li Gong, I don't know if you noticed that the Japanese devils in northwest Shanxi have been very peaceful during this period."
"This is expected." Fang Ligong, chief of staff of the 358th Regiment, said, "The main force of the Japanese army in Shanxi was transferred by Yoshio Shinozuka to southeastern Shanxi to sweep the Eighth Route Army Taiyue Military Region, and the other directions could only shrink."
"The Japanese are shrinking, it's our turn to take action." Chu Yunfei said angrily.
Fang Ligong said: "Tuanzu, are you planning to take this opportunity to regain Dagu Town?"
"You're right." Chu Yunfei smiled and said, "The geographical location of Dagu Town is very important to our 358th Regiment."
"Once Dagu Town is recovered, advancing can threaten Anhua City, and retreating can serve as the gateway to our 358th Regiment's defense zone, which can attack or defend, which can be called a defensive key."
While talking, a staff officer hurried in.
Fang Ligong took the information from the staff officer, and just glanced at it, his face changed.
When Chu Yunfei saw Fang Ligong's expression was different, he asked, "Brother Ligong, what's the matter?"
Fang Ligong took a deep breath and said, "Roun, the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army surrounded Taiyuan!"
"What did you say?" Chu Yunfei's expression changed rapidly when he heard this, "The 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army surrounded Taiyuan?"
This news shocked Chu Yunfei. Didn’t the Eighth Route Army usually only operate in the mountains? When was it so brave that it dared to run to the Fenhe Plain?
Not to mention running to the Fenhe Plain, did he also surround Taiyuan?
Where is Taiyuan? It is the provincial capital of Shanxi and the location of the First Japanese Army Headquarters!
"Yes!" Fang Ligong said while handing over the information, "This is the information we just sent out by our spy lurking outside Taiyuan City!"
After reading the information, Chu Yunfei frowned and asked, "Is the information reliable?"
"It should be basically reliable." Fang Ligong didn't dare to say too much.
Because the intelligence personnel of this era are basically double-sided or even three-sided spies.
Many spies did not only serve the Japanese army, the Jinsui army, and even the Eighth Route Army.
At this time, another communications officer hurried in and reported: "The regiment headquarters, the chief's headquarters, ordered our 358th regiment to send a small group of troops to go deep into the Fenhe Plain to closely monitor the movements near Taiyuan."
"It seems to be true." Fang Ligong waved his hand and said, "The chief officer has already received the news."
"This is simply incredible!" Chu Yunfei said, "A brigade in the Eighth Route Army District dares to attack Taiyuan!"
"The move of the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army is indeed amazing." Fang Ligong nodded and said, "However, considering that the 386th Brigade Commander Chen is the senior brother of the regiment and one of the three masters of Huangpu, it seems nothing strange."
"Compared with this senior brother, Chu is really ashamed." Chu Yunfei said, "Chu even has to think about restoring a mere big town, but my senior brother Chen is already planning to restore Taiyuan!"
"This kind of demeanor and courage, such a pattern are really admirable."
"However, only by knowing shame and being brave will you be a real man!"
Fang Ligong's face changed slightly and he said, "Tuanzhao, are you going to the Taiyuan Gang venue?"
"Yes!" Chu Yunfei said, "Yu Gong, the National Army and the Eighth Route Army are friendly forces. Yu Private, Brigade Commander Chen is Chu's senior brother Huangpu, not to mention that Li Yunlong, the commander of the 386th Brigade Independent Regiment, is Chu's close friend. Therefore, both Yu Public and Private, Chu must go to Taiyuan to help this place!"
"The regiment seat, think twice!" Fang Ligong advised, "The Eighth Route Army and the National Army are just theoretical friendly forces! Chairman Jiang and Chief Yan's attitude is already very obvious. The Communist Party and the Eighth Route Army will all solve the problem sooner or later."
"That's the future." Chu Yunfei pulled his military uniform and said solemnly, "At least now, our national army and the Eighth Route Army are still friendly forces!"
Speaking of this, Chu Yunfei turned his head and shouted: "Tell me the order, the 1st and 3rd Battalions gathered urgently!"
"The troupe really wants to go?" Fang Ligong's face changed drastically, and he advised again, "The troupe, without the orders of the chief and division headquarters, we will act without authorization. Once we go up to the top, we will pursue it..."
Chu Yunfei said in a deep voice: "It's up to me, the leader, to take care of everything!"
Seeing that Chu Yunfei had made up his mind, Fang Ligong turned around and advised: "Since the regiment is determined, we might as well bring more troops. As long as we can restore Taiyuan, what if we lose our territory?"
"That's right." Chu Yunfei said, "Then let the whole group gather!"
...
The movements of the 358th Regiment were soon reported to the division headquarters of the 65th Division.
The commander of the 65th Division knew that Chu Yunfei was a favorite general of Chief Yan, so he did not dare to order to stop him. Instead, he reported it to the chief's office with a telegram.
"What are you saying? The 358th Regiment is going to the Taiyuan Gang venue?"
"What are you doing with this Chu Yunfei? Why did he join in the fun?"
"What are the benefits of helping the Eighth Route Army fight against the Japanese?"
"Can the Eighth Route Army send you food, pay or firearms? It's nothing."
Director Guo whispered: "General, I think it's better to let the 358th Regiment go to Taiyuan."
"What's good? What's good?" Yan Xishan frowned, "Is it easy for Russia to build a model unit like the 358th Regiment? It took a lot of millions of Russian oceans!"
"Empty off all Russian family's foundation."
"Chu Yunfei took the 358th Regiment to Taiyuan to join the Eighth Route Army."
"If it is used as cannon fodder by the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army, then Russia will suffer a lot."
"But what if, what if I win, what if I win?" Director Guo said.
"What, you said just now. The 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army fought against Taiyuan, which was ridiculous and unpredictable." Yan Xishan said angrily, "How could it be possible to win."
"But Chief, what if a miracle happens?" Director Guo whispered, "If a miracle happens, if the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army really restores Taiyuan, then this political influence will be too great!"
"Taiyuan is the capital of Shanxi Province, and it is also the foundation for you to manage for many years."
"It would be inappropriate if such a major incident was not involved in the Jinsui Army."
"Well, what you said makes sense." Yan Xishan twisted his beard lightly and asked again, "How far is the 358th Regiment's resident from Taiyuan? Is it time to go?"
Director Guo said: "The 358th Regiment's garrison is less than 100 kilometers away from Taiyuan, and you can arrive in one day of marching."
Yan Xishan said again: "Russia remember that you have to pass through Anhua City from the 358th Regiment's headquarters to Taiyuan? Anhua City is a regiment stationed by the Japanese army. Will it be blocked?"
"That was the past." Director Guo said, "Now there is only one gendarmerie brigade in Anhua City. It also has to take into account the dozen strongholds around it, and it has no ability to block the 358th Regiment."
