    There is no doubt that Yanmen Pass and Fanzhi County will be the two places they must attack.

    And if these two areas cannot be captured, then their armored forces will not be able to pass through here and enter the Jinzhong area.

    Li Yunlong said at this time: "I have an idea."

    "Please speak, Commander Li." Xia Yang said.

    Although Li Yunlong is a regiment leader, his regiment now has nearly 10,000 people, even more than a regular Kuomintang division.

    ¡°I feel that although our armored forces cannot directly break through the defenses of Yanmen Pass and Fanzhi County in a short period of time.

    But in the surrounding mountainous areas, the Japanese defense was not as good as these important passes.

    Our infantry troops can actually penetrate into the rear of the Japanese army and cut off the connection between Yanmen Pass and Fanzhi County and the Taiyuan area.

    The Japanese defense was tight on the outside and loose on the inside.  Our infantry came in from the mountains and they could not stop it.  It should be better to attack their rear cities than to attack the front.  "Li Yunlong said.

    Ding Wei from the new regiment looked at the defense map and then added: "I think the local guerrilla forces can also cooperate with our actions.

    The strength of the Japanese army in Shanxi is no longer what it was before.  As long as they are enemy troops in North China, there will be no large-scale mobilization.

    ¡°Then we use flexible mobile operations to cross the mountains and attack inside the Japanese army.  That should have the effect of getting twice the result with half the effort.  "

    Xia Yang nodded, he had the same idea at first.

    But he also knew that Okamura Neji would definitely think of this step.

    "Neji Okamura has fought with us for many years. He must have thought of what we thought of." General Chen said while staring at the map.

    "According to intelligence, the Japanese army's strongholds along the way here not only have very strong defense capabilities, but also have many armored units along the way that can support them at any time." Xia Yang said.

    "So, even if our infantry enters the rear of the Japanese army, I am afraid it will not be so simple to capture the important strongholds of the Japanese army." Brigadier Chen and Xia Yang had almost the same idea.

    "However, we cannot give up this tactic. Having a division of troops to contain them in the rear of the Japanese army will cause them great trouble.

    Coupled with the cooperation of the local guerrillas, it will slow down the Japanese army's support of Yanmen Pass and the Fanzhi County defense line to the greatest extent.  "Xia Yang also expressed a certain degree of affirmation of Li Yunlong's tactics.

    "But these are not enough, we also need to annihilate the Japanese army at a faster speed." Xia Yang said.

    Everyone stared at the map, and then began to discuss it.

    They are all people with rich combat experience. After some discussion, the plan for this battle has already taken shape.

    First, they need to start from Laiyuan County and attack Fanzhi County.

    And in the direction of Yanmen Pass, we can¡¯t rush to attack.  But wait for the opportunity.

    When the battle in Fanzhi County entered a fierce stage, the Japanese army had to mobilize troops from Yanmen Pass for support.

    The troops hidden in the direction of Yanmen Pass, under the cover of heavy firepower from the howitzer regiment, launched an attack on the cities surrounding Yanmen Pass.

    The attack on Yanmen Pass is the highlight. They not only need armored units and artillery units to storm the Japanese frontal positions at Yanmen Pass.

    It is also necessary to attack a large number of Japanese defenses in the mountains around Yanmen Pass.

    The Japanese defense at Yanmen Pass can be said to be armed to the teeth.

    At the same time, the infantry units that detoured from the surrounding mountains to the rear could disrupt the Japanese transportation lines.

    If there is a chance, you can even capture a city in the rear and directly cut off the enemy's transportation line.

    As for the southern Shanxi area, it was left to He Changxing and the national army troops in Zhongtiao Mountain to contain it.

    Once Yanmen Pass or Fanzhi County is breached, they can advance all the way to Taiyuan.

    If Taiyuan falls, then the Japanese divisions in southern Shanxi will have no meaning in their existence.

    If the Japanese divisions in the southern Shanxi area still insist on holding on, Xia Yang will choose to block their eastward retreat and annihilate them all in the Shanxi area.

    After the rough war plan is made, the staff is asked to plan the details again.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?These plans are only for reference.  Because plans can never keep up with changes, they can only determine a rough blueprint for strategic actions.  Then make appropriate adjustments based on the actions of the Japanese army.

    After the combat plan is roughly drawn up, each unit begins to make final preparations before the battle.

    These soldiers, who have been training intensively for half a year, already have itchy hands.

    At this time, they received the order to go out, and everyone's morale was high. They wanted to capture all the Japanese troops still entrenched in Shanxi and tear them into pieces.

    There are three main groups that infiltrate from mountainous areas.

    They are Li Yunlong's independent regiment, Ding Wei's new regiment, and Bai Mingxuan's 189th Brigade.  That adds up to nearly 30,000 people.

    They passed through the Taihang Mountains and began to make detours from the east and west directions to Yuanping City, which is located in the south of Yanmen Pass and Fanzhi County, as well as Xinzhou City, and even around Taiyuan.

    The main purpose of this force is to, with the help of local guerrillas, destroy the Japanese army's transportation lines as much as possible and block their supply to the front line.  At the same time, they attacked Japanese airports and other facilities in that area.

    The frontal offensive troops are mainly divided into two groups.

    One group started from Lingqiu, passed through Pingxing Pass, directly attacked Jinshanpu Township, and then used this place as a springboard to attack Fanzhi County troops.

    The terrain this unit will attack, as well as the Hutuo River Valley, is relatively flat, making it difficult for the armored forces to deploy.

    Therefore, the main force of the attack is the three tank regiments of the Kagel Combat Division, as well as two motorized infantry regiments, as well as the corresponding infantry regiments, howitzer regiments, cavalry regiments, etc.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
