    At this time, the whereabouts of the Japanese 19th Brigade had been exposed to the investigation of a large number of scouts sent by Xia Yang and others.

    In addition, the guerrillas in Mount Wutai also began to become active again after losing the suppression of Japanese divisions.

    They repeatedly moved around and in the depths of Mount Wutai, keeping in contact with Chen Shiliang's troops at all times.  They basically have all the clues about Japanese military activities.

    "The march route of the Japanese 19th Brigade is already very obvious. They want to go around our back, and then form an encirclement of our main force with the Japanese 33rd Brigade on the other side." Xia Yang pointed to the military.  Map said.

    On that map, there are two red lines.  That was the route taken by the Japanese 19th Brigade and 33rd Brigade. From their previous routes, it was not difficult to deduce the direction of their next move.

    "Commander Xia's previous speculation is correct. The Japanese army just wants to use their division headquarters as bait, and then lure us into taking the bait, and then let the troops on both wings complete the encirclement of us." General Chen said.

    Xia Yang said: "Now the division commander of the Japanese 16th Division, Nakajima Imago, is probably still thinking about how to encircle us. But he doesn't know that we now know their intentions and want to launch a battle of annihilation against their troops.  "

    General Chen said: "Commander Xia, this time our two forces can be considered to be cooperating in a true sense. Please go all out for the next battle."

    ??

    He knew what General Chen was worried about, although his cooperation with the Eighth Route Army seemed to be going very smoothly.  But among the top brass of the national army, there was actually another upsurge against the Communist Party half a year ago.

    The die-hards at the top of the Kuomintang even began to mobilize a large number of Kuomintang troops to launch an encirclement and suppression campaign against the base areas.  While the foreign troubles have not yet been resolved, the senior men of the Kuomintang Party have already begun to eradicate dissidents.

    Xia Yang has been extremely disappointed with these actions of the top leaders of the Kuomintang.  He really couldn't imagine that at this critical moment of life and death, these people could still be thinking about these things in their heads.

    At this moment, Hu San ran over and said: "Reporter's seat, the news from the guard camp is that the enemy has arrived ten kilometers away. They didn't rest last night and traveled day and night, almost earlier than we expected.  Over six hours.¡±

    Hearing this, Xia Yang nodded and said: "The Japanese army marched day and night, which is also expected. How long will it take for them to reach the ambush site?"

    Hu Sandao: "They can reach the ambush location in up to three hours."

    Xia Yang said: "Order the ambush troops to seize the time to prepare for battle. This time, even if the Japanese brigade cannot be eaten directly, it will be disabled."

    Hu Sandao: "Yes, Master."

    Brigadier Chen said at this time: "Commander Xia, I am also going to the ambush position. As a commander, I need to be on the front line in person, otherwise it will be easy to misjudge the battlefield situation."

    Xia Yang said: "Let's go together. When I direct the battle, I also like to be on the front line."

    Bailong Valley is more than ten kilometers away from Longdu Valley in a straight line. This distance is not very far, but because it is in a mountainous area, even troops who are familiar with the terrain can reach it after a day of trekking through the mountains.  And for troops who are not familiar with the terrain, it is not impossible to walk for two or three days among the overlapping mountains.

    Xia Yang and the others arrived at Bailonggou at noon.  After entering Bailonggou, they began to move the troops into the ambush site.

    Bailonggou is the only way for the Japanese army to go to Longdugou. The Japanese 19th Brigade wants to surround Xia Yang and his troops, cross Bailonggou, and then occupy the two mountains in front, which is the most correct choice.

    As long as we occupy the two mountains in front of Bailonggou, we can prevent tens of thousands of people from getting through. Only one regiment of troops is needed to prevent the tens of thousands of troops from the Fourth Division and the 386th Brigade from passing through.

    "If the Japanese army follows the normal marching speed, they can arrive at Bailonggou around three o'clock in the afternoon.  If they travel day and night, they can even complete the siege of Xia Yang's camp in front of Longdu Valley by noon tomorrow.

    On the mountains on both sides of Bailonggou, Xia Yang's troops were mainly responsible for ambushes, and as mobile forces, they were several main regiments of the 386 Brigade, as well as Xia Yang's cavalry regiment.

    Ambush in the mountainsOn the side, there are three battalions of the Third Guard Regiment with more than 1,500 people, as well as the 123rd Regiment, 124th Regiment of the Second Brigade, and the subordinate special agent battalion.  A total of more than 6,000 people.  On the mountains in front of Bailonggou were Niu Shushi's 228th Regiment and Bai Mingxuan's 189th Regiment.

    These two regiments were drawn from Chen Shiliang's Fourth Brigade. They were originally dealing with the Japanese army in the Wutai Mountain area.  After Xia Yang's troops arrived, they directly joined the main force.

    They have been active in the Wutai Mountain area for a long time and are very familiar with the terrain here.  It was Bai Mingxuan's suggestion to set up an ambush location in Bailonggou.

    Xia Yang¡¯s troops participating in the war, including part of the artillery regiment, the guard battalion and the sniper squadron, totaled more than 10,000 people.  The 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army also sent more than 10,000 people to conduct an ambush here.

    The total number of the Japanese 19th Brigade is only about 7,000.  In terms of numbers and firepower, Xia Yang had an absolute advantage.

    What they have to do now is to fight quickly and strive to annihilate all these Japanese troops in a short time.

    Xia Yang moved his headquarters directly to the mountains next to Bailonggou.  Here he can clearly see the situation of the entire battlefield, which is very important for the commander to command the battlefield.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
