    After breakfast, Li Guoyao personally sent a telegram to his wife, asking her to inquire about the current battle situation of the Eighth Route Army!

    After all, if you want to participate in this war, you must first understand the current battlefield situation. Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle!

    At the same time, Li Guoyao also explained that he has returned to Jinan now. If the Eighth Route Army is willing, they can send someone to contact him to prevent the flood from destroying the Dragon King Temple!

    Soon, my wife¡¯s call back will arrive!

    According to the news from Yun Lisa, the raid has been going on for a week and the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region has basically completed its mission. However, some Japanese reinforcements arrived in Jingxing last night, including a large number of tank troops.  .

    After the reinforcements arrived, Suwon Yizhong immediately led two infantry squadrons to conduct a sweep of the area west of Jingxing, and ordered the engineers to urgently repair the damaged railways, bridges and clear tunnels.

    The 129th Division was responsible for attacking the western section of Zhengtai Road. After the general offensive was launched at 20:00 on the 20th, 5 companies of the 16th Regiment attacked Lujiazhuang Station and defeated 4 bunkers.  The 16th Regiment's two guerrilla companies in Yuci cooperated with engineers to blow up all the bridges between Lujiazhuang and Duanting.  The 38th Regiment made a surprise attack and captured two stations, Shanghu and Monkzu.  The 25th Regiment captured Mashou Station and the Japanese troops fled towards Shouyang.

    The right wing attack team of the 129th Division is composed of the 28th and 30th Regiment of the newly formed 10th Brigade. Its mission is to attack the Yangquan to Shouyang section of Zhengtai Road.  After the general offensive was launched, the 28th regiment divided into three groups to attack Langyu, Zhangjing and Qinquan stations; the 30th regiment attacked Sangzhang and Yanzigou.  That night they captured Sangzhang and destroyed the bridge there.

    On the 21st, they occupied Yanzigou and blew up two iron bridges.  By the 23rd, strongholds such as Langyu and Qinquan were captured.  During this period, the right-wing team also captured Potou, Xinzhuang, Saiyu, Tielugou, Xiaozhuang, Zhangzhuang and other stations and strongholds.

    The 772nd Regiment of the General Reserve Force carried out two strong attacks on August 22 and 25 to pacify the enemy in Yexi, southwest China. Finally, they annihilated most of the enemy and occupied Yexi.

    At this point, except for a few data points such as Shouyang, the western section of the Zhengtai-Taiwan Railway is controlled by the 129th Division.

    Due to the fierce attack by the troops, communication with the Japanese troops in the western section of Zhengda Road was interrupted for several days. The Japanese troops at various strongholds were attacked and surrounded and were quickly wiped out.

    The 129th Division then mobilized and organized the public to destroy railways, stations and ancillary facilities using methods such as demolition, blasting, fire, and flooding.  In order to cover the division's attack operations, at the beginning of the battle, the 14th Regiment of the General Reserve occupied Shi'nao Mountain.

    Just when Niangziguan was attacked, a train of about 800 demobilized soldiers from the 1st Army stationed in Shanxi arrived at Niangziguan, and a subsequent train of about 400 demobilized troops arrived in Yangquan.

    In this way, these two strongholds temporarily added nearly 1,200 troops. They used the weapons that the local troops still had to participate in the battle. They were commanded by Lieutenant Colonel Tokue Hikari, captain of the 15th Independent Infantry Battalion, because he also served as the guard captain of Yangquan.

    The Japanese troops stationed in Yangquan consisted of about 400 people from the Mountain Artillery Battalion directly under the enemy's brigade, about 100 people from the heavy equipment squadron, about 80 infantrymen and engineers, a total of about 680 people, plus 400 demobilized soldiers who had temporarily arrived, the total number was about  for 1,100 people.  One part of the Japanese army used strongholds and street houses to defend, and the other part fought back against the Eighth Route Army entering the city.  However, the enemies who counterattacked were all repulsed by the troops of the 129th Division, and as a result they were all forced to go on the defensive.

    The attack of the 120th Division was also very smooth. After the general offensive was launched, the main force of the 120th Division launched a surprise attack on the northern section of Tongpu Road. Railways, highways, bridges, and communication lines were all destroyed.

    The 39th Independent Infantry Brigade of the Japanese Independent Mixed Ninth Brigade stationed in Xin County was severely hit. Its strongholds such as Douluo, about 15 kilometers south of Xin County, and Boming, about 15 kilometers north of Xin County, were all attacked.  was destroyed, and the troops stationed along the Jingle Highway from Xin County to the west were also severely hit.

    While attacking the northern section of Tongpu Road, the First Division destroyed the road from Xin County to Jingle in the west, destroying enemy strongholds along the way.  When attacking Kangjiahui, about 25 kilometers east of Jingle, the captain of the enemy's 3rd Squadron stationed in Jingle led more than 40 people by car to go for reinforcements. As a result, they were ambushed on the way, and all of them were wiped out except for a few who escaped.

    Major General Shigeharu Yanashita of the 1st Army stationed in Shanxi Province was independently mixed into the 3rd Brigade, and Major General Heiji Wakamatsu was stationed in Fenyang into the 16th Brigade. Many of their strongholds along railways and highways were also destroyed by 120  Division and 129th Division troops were destroyed, and railways, roads and bridges were also damaged.

    It can be said that in just one week, the Eighth Route Army achieved a major victory in the attack on the Zhengtai Line, and the first step of the campaign objectives was basically achieved.

    After reading the enemy situation report sent by Yun Lisa, Li Guoyao was somewhat surprised. Although he had always known about the Hundred Regiments Battle, he did not know the details very well.

    After truly understanding the entire battle, it really?The Eighth Route Army was shocked by its courage.

    Not only did the Eighth Route Army invest a large number of troops in this battle, but the scope of the battle was also very broad. From Jingle in the northwest of Taiyuan to along the Zhengtai Line, there were even troops participating in the battle in the direction of Shimen, spanning 500 to 600 kilometers. No wonder the Japanese army was difficult to resist.  .

    While the Japanese army was struggling to cope, Li Guoyao knew that it was time for his troops to show off!

    At that moment, Li Guoyao no longer hesitated, and immediately ordered the guards to notify the women's brigade and other officers in the three-column left-behind headquarters to assemble immediately. He was going to hold a combat mobilization meeting!

    At half past eight, the temporary headquarters in Longwangmiao Town was crowded with people, and all regiment-level officers were present!

    Li Guoyao went down, and Ma Desheng, Guo Haiyu, Wang Lijuan, Zhou Wei, Wu Yunqi Qige, Yunque, Cheng Ernv, Chen Xueling and others sat in order, filling the small headquarters.

    After everyone had arrived, Li Guoyao first asked Ma Desheng to describe the overall situation in North China, so that everyone could have a general understanding of the current enemy situation.

    " Then Li Guoyao stood up and said: "Everyone, the current situation is like this. The Japanese army originally wanted to deal with us and transferred its main force to the Shandong battlefield. However, the Eighth Route Army was forced to carry out a breakthrough attack. It is currently very passive. "

    "If nothing goes as expected, the Japanese army will deploy troops from various places to counterattack. This is a good opportunity for us, but before that, I need to know the situation of your various departments!"

    As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Guo Haiyu stand up and say: "Report to the commander-in-chief, our department currently has two fully-equipped infantry regiments, as well as a cavalry battalion, an artillery battalion, an air defense battalion, an engineering battalion, and another  A baggage force of 500 people, with a total strength of 6,500."

    "The situation at the Luxi Independent Brigade is similar, but the technical arms may be a little worse than ours. After all, the technical arms in our department were all transferred from the Ninth Army Headquarters before the General Headquarters. As for the Dongshan Detachment, the situation is still the same.  Let Director Chen tell you, she knows the situation over there better."

    Chen Xueling did not show any pretense, and stood up directly and said: "Report to the chief, the Dongshan detachment has successively annexed 6 nearby villages and three horse bandits in the past month, and recruited more than 10,000 people. But those who can really fight  There are not many troops, most of them are the family members and relatives of the bandits. Currently, the number of troops capable of fighting on Erlong Mountain does not exceed 8,000."

    "Although Commander-in-Chief Zhang has conducted strict training for this unit, the time is still short after all, and the combat effectiveness can only be said to be unsatisfactory. If Commander-in-Chief mobilizes them to fight at this time, I am afraid the effect will not be satisfactory to you!"

    After listening to everyone¡¯s reports, Li Guoyao nodded and said: ¡°Although it is only a short month, the development of your departments is a bit beyond my expectation, not bad!¡±

    Then Li Guoyao continued: "You have done a good job in terms of soldiers, but due to the rapid expansion, you will inevitably have many problems, such as insufficient weapons and equipment, and the decline in the quality of soldiers, etc., so it is best to let them  You should seize the time to rest and recuperate. As long as you are given enough time, it won¡¯t be long before you become an elite force that can fight in every battle.¡±

    As soon as the words changed, Li Guoyao said again: "But what we lack most now is time. Once the Japanese army copes with this crisis, the little devil will definitely attack us again, so no matter how difficult it is for us,  Everyone must take this opportunity to make a breakthrough.¡±

    "And I have always believed in one thing, that is, elites are always made by fighting, not by training. So next, I will command your troops and beat the little devils hard in southern Hebei. Are you confident?  ?¡±

    ¡°Yes, yes, yes!!!¡±

    Everyone roared in unison, the sound was loud!

    "That's fine, then let's talk about the specific battle plan"
