I am a wolf warrior

Cheng Shifa, Ding Wei, Kong Jie and Li Yunlong immediately pricked up their ears, they also wanted to know.

旅长略一思忖，旋即沉声道：“这次作战行动的规模超乎你们想象，光咱们129师就要动用385旅、386旅、新1旅、新4旅、新7旅以及新8旅等6个旅的30多个团，如果加上120师和115师的参战部队，更是有100多个团！”

"Among them, the troops of the 120th Division are mainly responsible for the sabotage of the Tongpu Railway."

"The 115th Division is mainly responsible for the sabotage operations on the Beijing-Zhangjiakou Railway and the Ping-Han Railway."

"And our 129th Division is mainly responsible for the attack on the Baijin Line and Zhengtai Road."

"Didn't the Japanese army in North China implement a cage policy, using railways as pillars, highways as chains, strongholds and gun towers as locks, to lock down our various bases?"

"Then we'll break their locks, cut their chains, and tear down their posts!"

"I'd like to see, what will be left of this doggy cage by then?"

Cheng Shifa, Li Yunlong, Ding Wei, Kong Jie and other group leaders were immediately excited when they heard the words.

More than 100 main regiments of the Eighth Route Army are participating in the battle, so why not beat the devils and turn the world upside down?

Wang Ye nodded and said, "In this case, we might as well set our teacher's goal a little higher."

"Set the goal higher?" said the chief of staff, "Xiao Wang, let's make this clear. What do you mean by that?"

Wang Yedao: "Chief of Staff, what I mean is that the combat objective of our 129th Division might as well expand the attack on the Zhengtai Railway to severely damage or even completely annihilate the Japanese 4th Brigade stationed in Yangquan."

"What? Severe damage or even annihilation of the 4th Brigade?!"

Cheng Shifa, Ding Wei, and Kong Jie suddenly changed their faces.

After hearing this, the chief of staff couldn't recover for a long time.

This goal is quite different from the combat goal determined by the headquarters.

Because objectively speaking, there is still a big gap between the strength of the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese army.

For example, their 129th Division has grown to 8 brigades, more than 30 main regiments, and more than 10 people, but the training and equipment of the troops are uneven.

So there is not much chance of winning if you fight head-on.

Only Li Yunlong nodded again and again, with a face of agreement.

Not to mention that Li Yunlong had already heard Wang Ye's comprehensive analysis, even if he hadn't, he would have raised his hands in favor of Wang Ye's bold idea, because this guy is a troublemaker.

Now that the two bold people get together, it will be exciting in the future.

After a while, the chief of staff asked again: "Xiao Wang, do you know what you are talking about?"

"I know." Wang Ye said, "I might as well repeat it. I think our 129th Division can be bolder and expand the combat goal to severely damage or even wipe out the Japanese 4th Brigade."

"Easier said than done." The Chief of Staff shook his head.

"This is an infantry brigade of the Japanese army."

"It has two infantry regiments, a cavalry regiment, an artillery brigade, and a chariot squadron. In addition, there are mobile troops of the railway troops as auxiliary."

"Our 129th Division has a large number of troops participating in the battle,"

"However, the level of weapons and equipment is uneven, especially the lack of heavy weapons for attack."

"In the early days of the campaign, it should have been easy to take advantage of the lack of preparedness of the Japanese army, pull out the outer strongholds, and attack several sections of railways. However, it would be foolish to attack counties heavily guarded by the Japanese and puppet troops, especially Yangquan County! If you just blindly attack, I'm afraid it will inevitably hit the head and bleed."

Wang Ye smiled and said, "Chief of Staff, have you forgotten? There is no cavalry regiment anymore."

"Uh, that's right." The chief of staff slapped his forehead and said, "The Black Island Regiment has been wiped out by your independent regiment, but even so, the 4th Brigade still has two infantry regiments with more than 6000 people."

"Not so many." Wang Ye said, "An infantry brigade from the 22nd Regiment has been transferred to the Central China battlefield, and an infantry brigade from the 3rd Brigade in Taiyuan has also been transferred away."

"This is a new situation." The chief of staff said, "So, there are only five infantry brigades left in the 4th Brigade?"

"Yes, there are only five brigades left in the 4th Brigade." Wang Ye said, "Three of the infantry brigades are stationed scattered among the more than 100 strongholds along Zhengtai Road, and only two brigades are actually used for mobile operations. , more than 2000 people! Even with the security forces of the brigade headquarters and the troops directly under it, the number will never exceed 3000!"

The brigade commander said: "There is a factor that you may have overlooked. There are Japanese expatriates in Yangquan County."

"Oh yes." The chief of staff said, "The 771st Regiment suffered a lot from the Japanese expatriates in Qigen Village. These little devils are not much worse than the regular army when they are armed."

"Brigade Commander, and Chief of Staff, don't worry."

Wang Yedao: "I have also considered this factor. There are not many Japanese expatriates in Yangquan County, and the number of young and middle-aged people is no more than a hundred at best. Such a small number will not affect the situation of the battle."

"Have you even considered this?" The brigade commander was a little surprised.

Li Yunlong smiled and said: "Brigade Commander, Xiao Wang has thought of all kinds of problems, and even made a detailed battle plan for the Japanese 4th Brigade."

The brigade commander said: "Okay, Xiao Wang, you can continue."

Wang Ye said: "Let me first talk about the strength, firepower and deployment of the Japanese army in the direction of Zhengtai Road."

"The Japanese troops responsible for the defense of Zhengtai Road are mainly composed of three parts. One is the 4th Brigade of the Japanese Army, which is responsible for the defense of the section from the west of Niangziguan to Yuci, and the other is the 8th Brigade of the Japanese Army, which is responsible for the section from the east of Niangziguan to Shimen. For defense, the third is the 11th armored train team, which has just been transferred from the northeast."

“日军第4旅团下辖步兵第3联队、步兵第22联队，独立山炮兵第4大队、独立辎重兵第4大队，以及独立装甲车第4中队。”

"Among them, the 3rd Infantry Regiment is the Sakata Regiment."

"This wing is the deadly enemy of our 386th Brigade."

Chapter 103 Killing the 4th Brigade

Li Yunlong suddenly became energetic.

Speaking of Sakata United, then he is not sleepy.

Wang Ye went on to say: "Last autumn's anti-mopping up, it was the Sakata Regiment that pursued the headquarters of our Eighth Route Army. A regiment of artillery killed the headquarters of the Sakata Regiment with one shot, and killed the commander of the Regiment, Sakata Nobuzhe, and tore a big hole in the front of the Sakata Regiment, and protruded from the front to obtain..."

"Okay, okay." The brigade commander interrupted, "Don't talk about these useless things, just get straight to the point."

"Yes." Wang Ye replied, and said again, "Although the Bantian United was defeated by the Xinyi Regiment from the front in the Battle of Cangyunling, its strength has not suffered too much damage."

"The current captain is called Kikoshi Jiro."

"This old devil is not as cunning as Sakata Shinzhe, but he is even more vicious."

"During the battle of Xinkou, this old devil was still the deputy of the regiment, but he massacred more than a dozen villages in the Yunling area, causing the deaths and injuries of thousands of innocent civilians."

The chief of staff said sincerely: "Xiao Wang, you have done a solid job in reconnaissance this time. You have even investigated the blood debt of Jiro Kikoshi who massacred thousands of my civilians in Yunling."

Li Yunlong smiled and said: "You don't know, chief of staff. In order to do a good job in this reconnaissance, this kid didn't come back for three months and two days. He entered Yangquan County six or seven times alone! He even once Dressed up as a detective team, boarded the train from Taiyuan to Shimen County, and even knew exactly how many tunnels and bridges it had to pass through.”

"Really? Xiao Wang, you have worked really hard." The chief of staff said, "After this battle is over, the brigade commander and I will personally come forward to ask the boss for your credit, and we will definitely give you a notice to reward you."

"Don't, don't, don't." Li Yunlong said, "The chief of staff and the brigade commander, you must not praise him, this kid doesn't praise him, and if you praise him, he will cause trouble."

The brigade commander couldn't help but exchanged glances with the chief of staff.

Listening to this, why is it so familiar?

The brigade commander said angrily, "Li Yunlong, what are you talking about?"

After speaking, he said to Wang Ye: "Xiao Wang, let's talk about it later."

Wang Ye continued: "In the anti-mopping up campaign last autumn, the old devil Kikoshi Jiro was injured and hospitalized while riding a horse, so he escaped unharmed. But this time, we have to kill him no matter what."

"I didn't say anything." The brigade commander slammed his fist on the table and said in a deep voice, "This son of a bitch Kikoshi Jiro must be killed, and his head must be used to pay homage to the ghosts of thousands of innocent people in more than a dozen villages in Yunling."

Wang Ye said again: "The 3rd Infantry Regiment has three infantry brigades under its jurisdiction, Okazuo, Takeda, and Okamoto. Among them, the Okazuo Brigade is a mobile brigade, and the Takeda Brigade and Okamoto Brigade are scattered in the form of squadrons, squadrons, and even detachments. Among the more than 100 large and small strongholds along Zhengtai Road, only two brigade headquarters were incorporated into the wing headquarters."

"The 22nd Infantry Regiment has three infantry brigades under the jurisdiction of Yamazaki, Mukai, and Takashima."

"The Takashima Brigade among them has been transferred to the Central China battlefield and enriched for the 11th Army."

"The Mukai brigade, like the Takeda and Okamoto brigades, is scattered and stationed inside the guns of various strongholds."

"Next, I need to talk about the Yamazaki Brigade. The Yamazaki Brigade is also a mobile brigade, but it has temporarily strengthened an independent mortar squadron. It has six 6mm mortars of the 90 type, and its firepower is stronger than that of the wing headquarters."

"There is also Yamazaki Jihei, the captain of the Yamazaki Brigade. Although this old devil is a member of the Wutian Group, his military quality is better than those of the students who graduated from the mainland."

"Wutian Group?" Kong Jie asked, "Xiao Wang, what is Wutian Group?"

This can be regarded as Li Yunlong's opportunity to ridicule Kong Jie.

"So, you fool Kong Er should really learn to read and write more, and the Wutian group doesn't even know?"

Kong Jie said angrily: "It's as if you already know it, how can your kid be better than me?"

"Hehehe, don't be dissatisfied, our old Li really knows." Li Yunlong snorted softly, and said, "Most of the devil's senior officers are graduates of the Army University."

"Whenever these officers graduate, Emperor Kishi will give them a badge to commemorate."

"Because this badge is very similar to the Tianbao coin issued in the Meiji era, those high-ranking Japanese officers jokingly called it Tianbao money."

"Over time, the senior military officers who graduated from the mainland have the nickname Tianbao Qianzu."

"Conversely, senior military officers who did not graduate from Lu University are scornfully called the Wutian Group."

Kong Jie was dumbfounded after hearing this, and suddenly felt that Li Yunlong had become very strange.

Damn, when did Li's big head become so learned?This is unreasonable.

Wang Ye smiled, and said again: "In short, this Yamazaki Zhihei is still very difficult to deal with."

"In addition to the two infantry regiments, the 4th Brigade also has an independent mountain artillery brigade, an independent transport brigade and an independent armored vehicle squadron."

"The Independence Mountain Artillery Brigade has 12 Type 41 75mm caliber mountain artillery."

"The independent logistics brigade has more than 50 trucks and more than 500 carts."

"It should be explained that the little devil's supply soldiers are actually infantry in essence."

"In addition to being inferior to the infantry brigade in terms of heavy firepower, the combat effectiveness of the heavy soldiers will not be inferior to that of the infantry."

"Finally, I will focus on the armored vehicle squadron of the 4th Brigade. This armored vehicle squadron is equipped with all Type 95 light tanks. This tank has a 37mm caliber main gun and two 2mm caliber heavy machine guns. The firepower is very strong. Its armor 7.7 to 6mm thick enough to withstand a direct hit from a heavy machine gun."

Including the brigade commander, the faces of several chiefs became serious.

Due to the lack of heavy anti-tank weapons, the Eighth Route Army usually can only use cluster grenades or explosives to explode, but the effect of doing so is not satisfactory.

Many times, the Demoman dies, but the tank remains.

If the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army were asked to choose the most hated weapon, tanks would definitely rank ahead of cannons.

"The independent armored vehicle squadron of the 4th Brigade now has a total of 11 Type 95 light tanks, but there are still 4 tanks in the repair shop near Yangquan Railway Station."

"When necessary, these four tanks can also be put into battle."

"Then there is the armored vehicle squadron that originally belonged to the Black Island United. This armored vehicle squadron is equipped with 12 Type 4 armored vehicles and 95 Type [-] tanks."

"Now this armored vehicle squadron is temporarily under the command of the 4th Brigade."

"The last is the headquarters of the 4th Brigade and the two wing headquarters."

"Although there are some fighters, they will not exceed three hundred at most."

"The situation of the 4th Brigade of the Japanese Army is basically clear." The brigade commander hummed and asked again, "Now you can talk about the composition and current situation of the 8th and 9th Brigades."

"Okay." Wang Ye continued to explain.

……

Meanwhile, in Taiyuan, the provincial capital.

A car stopped at the entrance of the Yamamoto Special Forces garrison.

A moment later, Kazuki Yamamoto came out with a saber in his arms, and behind Kazuki Yamamoto followed two officers, one major and the other a second lieutenant.

Then the door of the car opened, and a major general got out.

This major general is none other than Maeda Hideo, head of the 4th Brigade of the Japanese Army.

"Maeda-kun?" Kazuki Yamamoto paused slightly, and said again, "Why do you come here when you have time?"

As the name suggests, Kazuki Yamamoto is just a piece of wood. Apart from studying special warfare methods, he has almost no interpersonal communication, so he speaks and does everything hard.

Also met Yoshio Shinozuka who appreciated him very much.

Otherwise, a person like this would have been sent to the garrison as a commander.

Maeda Hideo was very self-restraining, and when he was offended by Kazuki Yamamoto, he just smiled and said, "I happened to be in Taiyuan for a meeting, so I stopped by to see Jiro and Kuroshima-kun."

After finishing speaking, Maeda Hide's eyes turned to the two officers behind Kazuki Yamamoto.

The major in front is Jiro Maeda, the second brother of Hideo Maeda, and the other second lieutenant is Jiro Kuroshima who decided to join the Yamamoto Special Forces three months ago.

"Brother!"

"General!"

Jiro Maeda and Jiro Kuroshima stood at attention and nodded.
