Shanxi, Taiyuan.

Inside the brightly lit headquarters of the First Army.

In the cold wind of winter, time passed slowly, and Yoshio Shinozuka kept his hands behind his back from beginning to end, looking at the map of the whole territory of Shanxi hanging on the wall with a gloomy face, and was silent for a long time.

Next to him was Kazuki Yamamoto, who was standing with his head bowed and kept quiet.

After Miyano Michiichi was killed, Yamamoto Kazuki also began to be low-key and honest, hugging Shinozuka Yoshio's thigh, and his tone of voice was no longer arrogant.

Yamamoto is still very forced in his heart, with the high-ranking officers of the Japanese army he has offended over the years, after losing the chief of staff who values him, if there is no Yoshio Shinozuka, the commander of the First Army, to protect him, he will have to transfer to the reserve and return to China for retirement in less than half a month.

Moreover, if he wants to carry forward the special operation, he can only rely on Yoshio Shinozuka, who is in charge of the First Army, to make achievements in the vicinity of Shanxi in order to arouse the attention of the base camp to the special operation.

So, in the middle of the night, even if he didn't receive an order, Yamamoto took the initiative to compensate his commander for staying up late.

In the silence, a staff officer ran in, stood upright, and opened the folder in his hand:

"Your Excellency Lieutenant General, Captain Ohno has called, the railway patrol squadron led by him has arrived at the Wendian Village Railway Station, and is currently advancing along the railway towards the site where the military train was attacked."

"According to Captain Ohno's report, when he arrived, there were no obvious signs of fighting in Wendian Village, but the specific situation is not clear, and he has not yet encountered the personnel of Komatsu's brigade, but the railway has been shelled, and the sleepers and rails are seriously damaged."

The staff officer finished speaking in one breath before closing the folder and continuing to stand upright.

"Have the garrisons from the two surrounding counties arrived?"

Yoshio Shinozuka withdrew his gaze from the map, looked down at his watch, and took a deep breath before asking slowly.

The extremely gloomy face and deep frowning brows indicated that the lieutenant general was in a very bad mood at this time.

Now it's only an hour since the military train was attacked, and there are no traces of battle in Wendian Village...

The troops who went to support had arrived at the Wendian Village Railway Station, but they still did not know the specific situation, and even the soldiers stationed there did not see it, and found that the railway had been shelled and seriously damaged...

This situation showed that the number of enemies attacking the military column was very large, and it was equipped with artillery, and the combat effectiveness was very strong, and the Komatsu brigade, where it was stationed, had to participate in the battle with all its troops, and even the remaining personnel of the railway station participated in the battle.

It may even be that the Komatsu Brigade has been more than lucky······

Otherwise, it would not have been possible to have no sound of fighting, and it would not have been possible for the support troops to arrive without anyone answering them.

However, it took more than an hour to completely annihilate a second-line garrison brigade of the empire, is this too fast? It's even faster than the Yamazaki brigade. Yoshio Shinozuka was a little unconvinced of what he had speculated.

"Support units from the two counties have already departed."

The staff officer bowed his head and responded: "However, they encountered resistance on the way, and the enemy has planted a large number of mines on the road leading to Wendian Village, and it is expected that it will take another hour to arrive." ”

"Let's go down."

Taking a deep breath and waving his hand, Yoshio Shinozuka asked the staff officer to leave.

The staff officer left with brisk steps, as if there was a joy of getting out of the sea of suffering.

"Yamamoto-kun, tell me what you think."

After the staff officer left, Yoshio Shinozuka looked at Kazuki Yamamoto, who was always standing beside him.

"General."

Facing the current only thigh, the hope for the future of the Imperial Special Operations, Yamamoto Kazuki lowered his head and put his posture very low: "With all due respect, I'm afraid that the Komatsu Brigade of Wendian Village is already very lucky. ”

"After the military column was attacked, Komatsu Nakasa must lead the troops to support as soon as possible, and judging from the location of his military camp, it only took less than twenty minutes for his team to arrive at the place where the military column was attacked."

"The enemy has planted mines on the roads on both sides, and it is obvious that they are coming prepared, and it is impossible not to guard against the Komatsu brigade."

"If the Komatsu brigade can drive away the enemy, or is pursuing the enemy, it will definitely send back a telegram as soon as possible to explain the situation of the military column, their brigade is equipped with a radio station, and the telephone line communication in Wendian Village has not been cut off."

"If the two sides are in a period of intense fighting, they will definitely take the initiative to send someone to contact the railway patrol for support, after all, Komatsu Nakasa knows the news that the railway patrol will only need an hour to arrive."

Speaking of the back, Yamamoto's tone was also a little distorted.

One and a half brigades, annihilated in an hour, made him feel unbelievable.

From his point of view, it is not difficult to do this, as long as an ambush circle is set up on the road, and the Komatsu brigade, which is eager to support the military column, will inevitably rush headlong, then there will be no suspense in the battle.

This requires a large number of troops, and the firepower is good and not weak.

However, when attacking the military columns and looting supplies, a lot of troops were also drawn to encircle and annihilate an imperial semi-brigade.

And it's in Wendian Village.

It is only about 50 kilometers away from Taiyuan, and there are villages and towns passed by the railway where the Imperial Army is heavily stationed.

That's really ·····

It's unbelievable.

The art of war is cloudy, and it is unprepared to attack it by surprise, but it is not this unexpected method!

It's just a mess.

"Yamamoto-kun."

Yoshio Shinozuka rubbed his head, changed the topic and continued: "You say, who will be the person who did it?" The information of the military column is highly confidential, and judging from the actions of the other side, the target is obviously aimed at the military column. ”

"Although I don't know how many troops the other side has, it will definitely not be less."

"With so many troops, it is really incredible that they can quietly arrive at Wendian Village."

The familiar movements of his own general, as well as the familiar doubts that can no longer be familiar, made a person naturally pop up in Yamamoto Kazuki's mind, and he said one word at a time, with deep gritted teeth:

"Li Yunlong!"

That Li Yunlong, who always appeared in the core area of the empire's occupied area with his troops.

The criminal who killed his classmate and teammate Kuichi Ikeda, the participant in the Taiyuan gold robbery, the main culprit in the shelling of Taiyuan Airport, and the mastermind behind the killing of the chief of staff, General Miyano, - Li Yunlong!

"Yes, Li Yunlong."

Rubbing his head, Yoshio Shinozuka also gritted his teeth.

Although there was no evidence at all, he was resolutely sure in his heart that Li Yunlong must have done it this time. Only he has the ability and a criminal record to do these things.

"General, I'll arrange for someone to confirm this information immediately."

Kazuki Yamamoto said.

As for how to confirm, it's very simple, they currently have lurking personnel in the independent regiment, although it is difficult to obtain the headquarters of the independent regiment and the surrounding defense deployment, but it is still very simple to confirm an intelligence.

······

"Are you okay?"

Li Yunlong looked at the two guns that the monk took out and raised his eyebrows.

At first, he thought that the monk was planning to carry a grenade to blow up the devil's armored car, and with the monk's kung fu, it was really possible to do it, but he didn't expect to use a gun to penetrate the armor of the armored car.

"The devil's armored car has eight millimeters of steel plates, and it is armored steel, which is not comparable to our own blacksmiths."

Li Yunlong accentuated his tone.

In the past, the troops thought that the armored vehicles of the devils were ordinary rigid plates, but later they learned that the armored steel used for armored vehicles and the steel plates made by the blacksmiths themselves or purchased in ordinary times are not the same thing at all.

The gap is too big.

Rifle bullets can pierce through blacksmith-made steel plates at close range, and even commercially purchased steel plates can penetrate them, but they can't penetrate the armor steel of devils of the same thickness.

"Absolutely."

The monk patted his chest and said in a confident tone: "The devil's armored car is only eight millimeters of armor steel, and my Desert Eagle manual clearly writes that ordinary bullets can penetrate twelve millimeters of carburized armor steel at a distance of one hundred meters." ”

"Just let me get a hundred meters closer, and I'm sure to beat the little devil's armored car into a sieve."

"Yo!"

Li Yunlong raised his eyebrows, and his tone was particularly surprised: "You are a flower monk who is the last in cultural learning every time, and you can actually use data to speak?" Can you still read the manual? ”

"Hey, hey, hey..."

The monk touched his head embarrassedly: "This is what I asked the political commissar." ”

After hearing Yan Sheng's original analysis, Monk Wei had an idea in his heart, and pestered Zhao Gang to let him read the manual of his pistol, and only then did he realize for the first time how terrible the pistol in his hand was.

Moreover, it is said that there is also an armor-piercing bullet that can penetrate 12 mm armor steel for 200 meters, but unfortunately Boss Chen has not given him this kind of bullet yet, and the monk decided to ask next time.

"I said it!"

Li Yunlong nodded suddenly.

Then, he looked at the armored vehicles that were approaching and squinted his eyes: "Then, this time, all the devil's armored vehicles will be handed over to you, and after you go back, canned meat will let you eat enough for one meal." ”

"What do you say?"

The monk's eyes lit up suddenly, as if a hound had discovered its prey, and his tone of voice increased by three degrees.

Li Yunlong, who was well versed in this monk, said a word that raised the monk's morale again.

"Labor and management lied to you that time?"

"Prepare for battle."

With Li Yunlong's order, a series of bolt pulls sounded around the area.
