Therefore, the Japanese army's participation in combat this time was two cavalry squadrons, one chariot squadron and one motorized infantry squadron, with a total force of more than 500 people.

For Heyuan County, where all the troops stationed in only more than 1,000 troops, this is the largest number of mobile troops that the Japanese army can mobilize, and no matter how many troops there are, there will be no more.

Another thing is that it was not the Heyuan Prefecture Military Police Captain Masao Kato.

Instead, the Chief of Staff of the 69th Division, Colonel Ryoichi Yamamoto, who came from Heian County last night.

Masao Kato said: "Chief of Staff, Sun Desheng's cavalry battalion has become the biggest threat to the Imperial Army..."

"Wait." Yamamoto Ryoichi said, "I remember the last time I came to Heyuan County, there was only one cavalry company in the Independent Regiment? Why did it become a cavalry battalion in less than two months?"

Masao Kato glanced at Yoshio Matsushima beside him, not knowing what to say.

Yamamoto Ryoichi said again: "Where did the Eighth Route Army buy so many military horses?"

Seeing that he could not escape, Yoshio Matsushima could only bite the bullet and said, "Chief of Staff, the military horses of the Eighth Route Army Cavalry Battalion were not bought, but our military horses were seized."

"Nani?" Yamamoto Ryoichi said in a daze, "All of them are captured military horses?"

Speaking of this, Yamamoto Ryoichi said again: "Didn't you say that the lost military and horses were all killed in battle or in illness? It turns out that they were all deceived by the division and regiment headquarters?"

Masao Kato and Yoshio Matsushima could only remain silent.

"Baga, idiot!" Yamamoto Ryoichi was angry and slapped Kato Masao and Matsushima Yoshio each. "Do you know that if you conceal this kind of reporting, will lie cause serious misjudgment in the division and regiment headquarters?"

"Hayi! Please punish the Chief of Staff." Kato Masao paused his head, but he was quite dissatisfied.

In fact, as the public security situation becomes increasingly serious, the phenomenon of concealing reports on the battlefields of Shanxi and Shandong has almost become an open secret, and it is said that the 13th Army is more common.

Otherwise, if we really implemented it strictly in accordance with the military regulations, the grassroots officers of the First Army and the 13th Army would probably have been left with few grassroots officers, and they would have all given up to thank the Emperor.

Yamamoto Ryoichi was naturally aware of this.

Yamamoto Ryoichi groaned and continued, "Forget it, remember this time before you finish this battle."

Speaking of this, Yamamoto Ryoichi continued: "However, since the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army Independent Regiment has expanded from one company to another battalion, our troops may not be enough."

"This won't happen." Yoshio Matsushima said quickly, "Although the cavalry company of the Independent Regiment has been expanded into a cavalry battalion, the training of cavalry takes time, so in a short time, the cavalry that the Independent Regiment can fight is still the original cavalry company, and the total number is less than a hundred cavalry."

"Is that true?" Yamamoto nodded, "That's good."

After a pause, Yamamoto Ryoichi continued: "The only question now is, will the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army be deceived?"

"Yes, they will definitely do it." Yoshio Matsushima said affirmatively, "The Eighth Route Army's eyeliner is everywhere. As soon as our cavalry squadron leaves the city, the Eighth Route Army will know immediately, and then their cavalry will appear."
