"The Japanese have strengthened their protection of the railway line. The section from Guisui to Baotou that has been most attacked by various guerrilla groups. If we want to cut off this railway line, my Daqingshan guerrilla detachment will have to go in at least half of it."

Yao Yidao looked at the map, and when he said these words, there was no other expression on his face except seriousness.

"This war is related to the party! The safety of the Central Committee and the future war situation across the country, we must fight no matter how high the cost, there is no possibility of escape." Ye Qingshan patted his old comrade on the shoulder,

"After Jiangdong successfully captures Guyang and Baotou, I will ask him to distribute part of the captured Japanese military supplies to the Daqingshan guerrilla detachment. You will be open to fighting this battle. After the war, I will try my best to give you medicines and ammunition.

Complete it.”

Yao raised his eyebrows and looked at Ye Qingshan,

"You have been serving as office director in Jincheng before. What do you think of Jiangdong, the rising star of the Kuomintang!"

Ye Qingshan knew what his old comrade was thinking. In order to eliminate the prejudice in his mind, he said truthfully:

"Jiang Dong is the most capable Chinese soldier I have ever seen, except for Commander No. 1. His military thinking is ahead of the vast majority of Chinese soldiers of this era. Whether in strategy or tactics, he is the best of this era.

soldier."

Yao Yidao looked a little unconvinced. His reputation in Suiyuan was no worse than that in Jiangdong. "Is he really that powerful?"

"Although I am not as strong as you, my vision of people and political thinking are much better than yours. There is no exaggeration in my words.

Besides, those Japanese divisions that were destroyed at the hands of Jiangdong were not just paper."

"Yeah!" Yao Yidao nodded with narrowed eyes.

"So, as long as we fully cooperate with Jiangdong, the Chinese army is very likely to win the oil field defense battle. Jiangdong may even push back the Japanese army, and it is not impossible to completely drive the Japs out of Suiyuan.

By then, the Daqingshan base will be fully developed and the threat from the border region government will be completely eliminated.

We are helping Jiangdong, and we are also helping ourselves!"

"I understand!" Yao Yida put away the battle map and made it again next to the charcoal basin.

"The entire detachment is basically composed of cavalry, with more than 800 people. You can leave a contact frequency and let us know on the radio when we need to cooperate."

"good!"

After the matter was explained clearly, Ye Qingshan patted his butt and was about to leave. As soon as he reached the door, he suddenly remembered something and warned:

"Jiangdong's special forces are operating in various places in Suiyuan, and there should be their presence around Daqingshan. If you bump into our people, don't open fire rashly, confirm your identity first. They are not easy-going, so don't make the relationship too tense.

"

Yao Yidao narrowed his eyes. There were indeed some sneaky shadows around the base area recently. The sentries tried to capture them, but in the end they all failed.

'It turns out they are the famous hunter group!'

Yao Yida sighed in his heart.

…

…

Naosaburo Okabe and Shun Tada both received Io Mizukawa's farewell telegram, and their reactions were different.

Tada Shun wanted to save Mizukawa Ifo's life. The identity of the old Japanese was relatively sensitive. Tada Shun did not want to cause dissatisfaction with the base camp and His Majesty the Emperor as soon as he took office as the commander of the North China Front.

However, Naosaburo Okabe was still unwilling to order the two reinforcements to desperately support Wuyuan. He was the commander of the Mongolian Army and was responsible for the entire Mongolian Army.

The 26th Division and the Cavalry Group are the absolute main force of the Mongolian Army. If the losses are too large, there will be a serious shortage of troops in various parts of Suixi. By then, the losses of the Imperial Army will not be comparable to that of Io Mizukawa.

Naosaburo Okabe insisted on his own opinion and turned a deaf ear to Tada Shun's orders. The angry Tada Shun flew into a rage in the headquarters in Peiping.

On the first day of the oil war, the Imperial Army was about to lose an important county town and a heavyweight officer, which cast a gloomy light on the vigorous No. A battle from the very beginning.

The main participating units such as the First Army, the Twelfth Army, the 27th Division and the 57th Division were still blocked on the road due to traffic problems. Jiangdong took the lead, and the North China Front Army was in an extremely passive state.

"Your Excellency, Commander, we have just received a report that there are signs of large-scale mobilization of Soviet troops on the border of Manchukuo. In Chahar, Suiyuan and other places bordering Soviet forces, there are also signs of Soviet troops moving toward the border."

Kasahara Yukio brought terrible news to Tada Shun, "The Soviet army's actions have become more and more intense. They have even taken the initiative to provoke conflicts in some places, and seem to be looking for the cause of the war. Intelligence agents in Moscow also sent news that there are ongoing developments in the Soviet Union.

Collecting supplies seems to be preparing for a large-scale battle.

Border guards in various places have entered a state of war, but the border guards have limited strength. If the Soviet Red Army really launches an attack, the consequences may be serious."

"Baga! The Soviets must be bluffing. Their purpose is to coordinate Jiangdong and contain the imperial army's strength!"

Before Tada Shun could speak, Yoshiko Kawashima jumped out first, looking extremely angry.

Kasahara Yukio nodded,

"The Front Army Staff Office and the Kwantung Army Staff Office also think so, but everything needs to be prepared just in case. The grudges between the Army of the Empire of Japan and Soviet Russia have been going on for decades, and we have

The military strength is indeed seriously insufficient. No one can guarantee that the Soviet Red Army will not come. Once something like that happens, no one can bear the responsibility."

This is what makes all the Japanese officers' heads hurt the most. They know that the opponent is bluffing, but they have to guard against it.

Tada Shun felt that his heart was filled with panic, and he wanted to find someone to ravage him severely.

He could no longer sit calmly on the chair, and his short legs kept moving around the office.

'Guerillas, Soviets, Jiangdong, oil...'

Tada Shun felt that all this was premeditated and that his No. 1 battle plan came too late.

At this moment, he no longer had the heart to worry about the life and death of Ifo Mizukawa.

"Get ready, I want to move the headquarters to Datong and meet Jiangdong in person!" Tada Shun suddenly said.

"Your Excellency, Commander, is this too risky? The base camp will never agree to this!" The division commanders and corps commanders are directly responsible for frontline operations. Tada Shun is the highest commander of the North China Front and is directly involved in specific command.

Somewhat inappropriate, Kasahara Yukio reminded.

"Jiangdong has the courage to go deep into Suiyuan. Why can't I go to Datong? Don't talk nonsense and let's get ready immediately!"

Tada Shun acted very resolutely.

"An Guojun will go to Datong with me to strengthen the troops on the northern front!"

“Hiyi!!!”

Yoshiko Kawashima accepted the order excitedly, shouting in her heart:

"Jiangdong, wait for me!"

…

…

Two o'clock in the afternoon.

The 39th Army Corps has completely taken control of Wuyuan County, and the remaining few hundred Japs and their commander are surrounded at the security headquarters.

All the fat sheep in the county have been arrested, and the 5th Regiment and the 2nd Division Guard Battalion gained a lot from the house raids.

The food confiscated from the homes of several big traitors and big landowners can support the 20,000 people of the 35th Army in long-term operations for at least a month.

The value of properties, shops, gold, silver and jewelry has not yet been calculated.

"All the wealth in the Hetao fell into the pockets of these big landowners!" Jiang Dong said with emotion after listening to Lu Zhuoran's report.

"Gold, silver, jewelry and shops are easy to deal with. How does the army commander plan to deal with such a huge amount of land?" Lu Zhuoran asked.

Jiang Dong frowned and thought,

"Although the Hetao is rich, it is not the permanent residence of the 39th Army. After this war, these places must be handed over to Fu Zuoyi's jurisdiction. If the Red Party distributes land to the people like the Red Party, it will be difficult to support the front line in the war of resistance in a short period of time.

effect.

My initial idea is that the land will be controlled by the army, and the army will farm the fields together with the people while preparing for war. This can reduce the number of food distribution links and support more combat troops."

Lu Zhuoran thought about it and nodded in agreement.

"How are the remaining Japanese soldiers doing? How effective are they in persuading them to surrender?"

"So far they have no intention of surrendering, and the two lines of Japanese reinforcements have shown no signs of speeding up their march."

"Haha..." Koto sneered. It seems that Naosaburo Okabe and Shun Tada have given up on Io Mizukawa.

"If someone calls me again, I'll give Io Mizukawa the last half an hour. If he doesn't surrender after half an hour, I'll feed him a bomb!"

…

…

"Oike-kun, I really want to stay and fight with the warriors, but the blood of the royal family flows in my body, and dying here will bring shame to His Majesty the Emperor and the entire empire, so I must leave, even though I don't want to!"

Mizukawa Ifo's face was full of confusion.

"I understand, Lieutenant General!"

Wei Chi felt sad, but he knew that this was his fate and he had no choice.

"The time for the ultimatum is coming soon. Lieutenant General, please leave as soon as possible. I will cover you!"

"Yoshi, Oike-kun, I will tell His Majesty the Emperor face to face the heroic deeds of you and the warriors!"

"Thank you Lieutenant General, everything is for the Empire of Japan and His Majesty the Emperor!"

…

Ifo Mizukawa led 20 guards into the tunnel under the security headquarters. This was the escape route he had prepared for himself when he first took office as the security commander of Suixi.
