Taiyuan.

Command department entrance.

Yoshio Shinozuka stood outside the door, looking at the headquarters where he had stayed for several years, and after standing still for a long time, he suddenly sighed deeply, his tone was full of reluctance, but there was also a vague taste of relief.

"General..."

Behind him, Yamamoto shouted.

Yoshio Shinozuka didn't speak, still quietly looking at the headquarters.

According to the order of the base camp, in another month, Yan Song Yixiong will arrive in Taiyuan by military train, and he will also leave here, leave this headquarters, leave the First Army, leave Taiyuan, return to China, and become a reserve officer, maybe he will be given a vacant position, not as good as the principal of such and such a school, he has no rights, only a name.

Then, he grew old in obscurity, and there was no chance to go out of the mountain again.

The empire lacked soldiers, lacked weapons and equipment, and there was a shortage of junior officers, but by no means there was a shortage of officers.

Especially a high-ranking officer like him.

As the battle reached a stalemate, the losses of the officers and soldiers at the grassroots level were great, but the number of senior officers killed was not many, but on the contrary, they were promoted a lot, and as time went by, more and more senior officers would climb up, and once they left the front-line command sequence, there would be no place for him.

"Yamamoto-kun."

Yoshio Shinozuka rubbed his forehead and said:

"I've been on the phone with Lieutenant General Iwamatsu, and he'll continue to put you in charge of intelligence for the First Army, and as for your special team..."

Speaking of this, he paused before continuing:

"Funds will be allocated at the brigade level."

Generally speaking, when a new commander arrives, he will marginalize the cronies of the previous commander to avoid the residual influence of the previous commander.

But Yamamoto's situation is a little special, this Dazuo, who has been squeezed out by the top level of the North China Front, has strong intelligence capabilities, but the power under his control is very small, not even as good as a Nakasa, without Yoshio Shinozuka, the actual influence is pitifully low.

This made the old devil Iwamatsu decide to take in Yamamoto.

But its special forces team has also been relegated, from the wing level, to the brigade level.

"Hey."

Yamamoto bowed his head, his voice bitter.

The supply of materials at the wing level, compared with the team level, is not the same grade at all, and the difference is several times, and it seems that the scale of the special team will shrink in the future.

But he can't help it, and he is even a little glad in his heart, compared to being marginalized, a head of an intelligence department is already very good, and as for the promotion of special operations, he can only slowly figure it out in the future.

"Remember."

Yoshio Shinozuka emphasized: "We must warn Lieutenant General Iwamatsu that we must attach importance to Li Yunlong and his independent regiment, and we must make sufficient preparations before attacking Shou County." ”

Yoshio Shinozuka never forgot Li Yunlong, but I have to say that when he was about to be transferred back to China, his headache was cured.

Reading Li Yunlong's name no longer has a headache.

This made Yoshio Shinozuka feel a sense of relief, and he was not so reluctant to be the commander of the First Army.

"Hey."

Yamamoto bowed his head should be.

There is no need for Yoshio Shinozuka to remind him, he also knows that he has to remind the new commander to attach importance to Li Yunlong, and as the head of the intelligence department, he is also capable enough to remind him of this.

"The application for the 150-caliber heavy artillery has come down, and the general of the 240 barrier-breaking artillery village has also agreed."

Yoshio Shinozuka continued.

Although the First Army was an independent army, it was not equipped with heavy artillery because of the relationship between the combat objects, and the largest caliber was only the artillery of the 105th division. The Devil 150 caliber is generally subordinate to the Front, or to an independent artillery wing.

As for the large-caliber barrier-breaking heavy artillery, it is also subordinate to the level of the front army.

"It's a pity that the replenishment of the flight group was not agreed."

Yoshio Shinozuka shook his head and sighed.

In order to deal with Li Yunlong, Yoshio Shinozuka can be said to have done his best, not only begging his grandfather everywhere to tell his grandmother for heavy artillery, but also wanting to headquarters, and even directly applying to the base camp for more planes.

Li Yunlong has the ability to counterattack heavy artillery units, and the kind of mortars with strong power and long firing range, as well as the interspersed infiltration tactics that he is good at, are very likely to pose a threat to the heavy artillery units.

But airplanes are different.

According to Zhu Ziming's report, the independent regiment had only 12 to 15 heavy machine guns with air defense capabilities, and the size of the force was 3,000 to 4,000.

With such a huge force, a mere dozen anti-aircraft machine guns are simply not enough for air defense, and the sky is full of loopholes, and fighters can strafe at will. It was of great help to eliminate Li Yunlong.

However, there were not many attack aircraft of the First Army Flying Group, so he applied to the headquarters for additional reinforcement, but he was not agreed.

In fact, General Gangcun had already agreed, and even planned to deploy 20 new fighters and pilots for him, but he was confused, and Li Yunlong's previous shelling of Taiyuan Airport caused some people to suppress the First Army Flying Group, and he could not do anything.

Unless he can find a reasonable reason to gag those people.

But it has nothing to do with him, and it's none of his business to deal with Li Yunlong next.

"Hey."

Yamamoto continued to bow his head.

"In a month's time, Lieutenant General Yan Song will arrive in Taiyuan on the military train from Baoding, you can bring your special team and go with me to meet you."

Yoshio Shinozuka finally said, his tone a little brisk at this time.

······

Shou County.

On a hidden mountain road behind the county seat, Wang Gensheng took a few warriors and pulled a few big mules along the hidden mountain road and walked towards the county seat. Along the way, you can also see guard posts and bunkers.

Several of them were dressed in shabby civilian clothes, and their weapons were well hidden, looking like a caravan.

"Roots..."

Before he got closer, Zhang Dabiao's shout came from afar.

"What's the matter?"

Hearing Zhang Dabiao's shout, Wang Gensheng's eyes lit up.

This time, he went to Taiyuan to transport artillery shells, and as soon as the time came, he dispatched heavy artillery to bombard the Taiyuan airport.

The ammunition depot on the Taiyuan side has been excavated, the location is hidden, and the structure is strong and waterproof. Because it was on the exercise ground, it had been bombarded by little devils, and it was inaccessible, so it was guaranteed that it would not be discovered, and the transportation work was also smooth.

Zhang Dabiao knew about it, and at this time he came out to call him, and this voice was full of impatience...

In an instant, Wang Gensheng realized one thing in his heart.

There is a new mission, and it is a big mission, a mission that requires a special squad. Otherwise, Zhang Dabiao would definitely not be in this tone.

"Let's go, let's go to the regiment headquarters together, there's a new mission."

Rushing to Wang Gensheng, Zhang Dabiao went straight to the point.

"Okay."

Wang Gensheng immediately followed Zhang Dabiao to the regiment headquarters, leaving a few team members to look at each other.

"I guess there is a mission, and it's a mission we dispatched."

The people who went to Taiyuan to transport the shells were all members of the special forces, and they quickly guessed the reason from the expressions of the two captains.

"Let's go, let's go and return the mule to the transport."

Several team members' eyes lit up suddenly.

Special forces have not been on a mission for a long, long time.
