Chapter 229 Group Battle 7
Xiwenzhuang Township.
"Report, Major Imura, there are many Eighth Route Army soldiers outside."
A member of the Imperial Army hurried to the headquarters and spoke to Taro Imura who was practicing calligraphy with a brush.
"No hurries!"
Taro Imura calmly wrote the last word, put down the brush, and shouted.
"Somebody come!"
A Japanese soldier who was on guard walked in.
"Go, call the front base and ask if the Eighth Route Army has any large-scale operations."
"Hi."
The little Japanese soldier nodded his head and agreed.
After the Japanese soldiers left, Taro Imura finally spoke and comforted the Imperial Army, "Captain Li, don't worry."
"The Eighth Route Army closest to us has to go through three or five checkpoints to get here. If there really was a large force, I would have received the news long ago."
"The Eighth Route Army that appeared outside are probably guerrillas!"
"Oh~~~"
Li Sanpao breathed a sigh of relief: "Major Jingcun, you are really smart. I didn't even react just now!"
"Captain Li, don't panic when things happen."
"Oh no~~~"
Just as Taro Imura was about to teach Li Sanpao a lesson, a skinny man from the Imperial Army stumbled in.
"Captain... Captain... Major Imura, there are many more Eighth Route Army soldiers outside, and they have surrounded us."
"What!!"
"Report."
Before Taro Imura and others could be surprised, the Japanese soldiers who had just left ran back.
"Report to the Major, we can no longer contact the Xiti and Wangkou bases!"
"It's over. There's no news from the Xiti stronghold. It must have been captured by the Eighth Route Army. The ones coming from outside must be the main force of the Eighth Route Army!"
Li Sanpao shouted in panic.
"idiot!"
Taro Imura was a little flustered, but soon calmed down: "Don't panic, go inform Captain Hatake and ask his flying squadron to help us attack the invading enemy."
"Hi!"
"Yeah, we still have Captain Hatake!"
Li Sanpao's mood turned from gloomy to cloudy, and then he became happy again.
"Captain Li, gather the troops immediately. Once Captain Qi Mu launches his attack, you will lead the Imperial Army to defeat the fallen dog."
"Hi!"
Li Sanpao happily took the thin man out and prepared to gather the troops.
At the same time, at a tea stall outside the airport, a man watched as the alarm suddenly sounded at the airport, which became bustling with activity.
Without saying a word, he left the tea stall, paid for his tea, and returned to a room. He took out a radio and quickly sent a telegram.
Soon, on a hill two kilometers away, Wang Chengzhu received a telegram, stood up and walked to two long-range rocket launcher launchers holding papers.
"There's news. The Japanese at the airport have started preparing. We can launch the attack."
"it is good."
The two launchers did not hesitate and came to the long-range rocket launcher and started operating it.
After a while, the two men looked at each other, pressed the electric start switch, and three Taihang Type 1 rocket launchers spewed out bright flames.
"Choo Choo Choo......"
Accompanied by sharp chirping sounds, three long-range rocket launchers, dragging long tails of flames, flew towards the Taiyuan Airport 2,500 meters away.
"Hurry, get on the plane and prepare for battle!"
"Look! A shooting star!"
At Taiyuan Airport, Saburo Hatake was directing his soldiers to board the plane when a soldier on guard suddenly pointed to the sky and shouted.
Upon hearing this, Hatake looked up and his face changed drastically: "Baga, it's a rocket launcher!"
"Bang, bang, bang."
After three loud bangs, three large holes appeared at the airport, which was originally filled with planes and people.
The wreckage of the plane all over the ground and the body parts everywhere tell of the tragedy of the scene.
"Hey, let the artillery battalion fire, and the second and third battalions prepare for the attack!"
Outside Xiwenzhuang Township, Li Yunlong looked at the Taiyuan Airport where huge flames were coming out, smiled, and gave instructions to the communications soldier beside him.
“Chirp, chirp….”
"Bang, bang, bang..."
With the firing of rocket launchers and Japanese artillery, the Japanese in Xiwenzhuang Township were immediately blown to pieces.
"Baga, counterattack, counterattack!!"
A Japanese officer quickly commanded two Japanese cannons to fire at the Eighth Route Army outside the village.
"Bang, bang."
But after just two shots, they were blown apart by the 107 rocket launcher.
"Let the Second Battalion attack! The artillery battalion extends its firepower to cover the Second Battalion."
Li Yunlong, holding a telescope, saw that the Japanese artillery and front-line fortifications were almost all blown up, so he decisively ordered the second battalion to start the attack.
An hour later, the New 1st Regiment captured Xiwenzhuang Township.
Li Yunlong walked into Taro Imura's headquarters, looked at the brushes placed beside him, and smiled: "Notify the villagers to come in and clean up this place for me."
...............
386 Brigade, Brigade Headquarters.
"Report, according to reliable intelligence, the Japanese sent a troop and are looking for the location of the division headquarters."
A signalman read a telegram to the brigade commander.
"It's over. Now all the troops have been sent out to expand the victory. The division headquarters is protected by only one guard regiment."
In the room, the political commissar wearing glasses said worriedly.
"Don't worry."
The brigade commander smiled calmly and said, "I had long guessed that the Japs would send troops to attack the division headquarters."
"I specifically left Li Yunlong's New 1st Regiment behind just to wait for them."
"Hahaha, I see."
The Chief of Staff was relieved: "I wonder why you left the most powerful New 1st Regiment unused!"
"You've been waiting here for so long!"
"hehe."
The brigade commander smiled and looked at the signalman beside him: "Go, send a telegram to Li Yunlong and immediately lead the troops to Jinzhong to protect the division headquarters during its transfer."
"Yes."
On the other side, Li Yunlong, who was smiling as he watched everyone demolish the house, suddenly received a telegram from the brigade.
After reading the telegram, Li Yunlong, who was in a good mood, almost jumped up.
"Zhang Dabiao."
"exist."
Zhang Dabiao ran over quickly.
"Quick, take your troops and head to Jinzhong, Cangyun Ridge immediately."
Li Yunlong quickly ordered: "Remember, if you don't find the Japanese when you arrive, dig a defensive position immediately on the spot, and send someone to tell the division headquarters to move quickly."
"Division headquarters!"
Zhang Dabiao was shocked, but did not dare to hesitate. He immediately asked the signalman to notify the entire first battalion to assemble.
Soon, the soldiers from the battalion who were carrying the roof beams and prying the floor tiles put down their work, picked up their weapons and ran towards Zhang Dabiao.
"Emergency order, all members of the first battalion."
Zhang Dabiao came to the front of the crowd and said in a deep voice: "The target is Jinzhong, Cangyunling, run forward."
"Yes."
The company commanders of the first battalion walked out of the crowd and began to command the troops: "First company, run forward!"
"Second Company, follow up."
After Zhang Dabiao led his troops away, Li Yunlong looked at Xiwenzhuang Township, which would take some time to demolish, and called several guerrilla captains over.
"Everyone, this is an emergency. I will be leaving with the new group shortly."
"what!"
"Didn't we just capture Xiwenzhuang Township? Why are you leaving just like that?"
Looking at the guerrilla leaders who were whispering, Li Yunlong apologized.
"I may have to trouble you here. Don't uproot the houses or anything. Set them on fire. Clean up and take the villagers away quickly."
"Captain Li, you are the main force. If you suddenly leave now, something important must have happened."
A guerrilla leader said: "We won't stop them, but we would like to ask you to leave us a few 107 rockets."
"If we run into the devils on the way back, we can still fight back!"
"no problem!"
Li Yunlong nodded generously: "I'll leave you 10 rocket launchers, enough for you to go back."
"Great."
Several guerrilla leaders said happily.
After discussing with several guerrilla leaders, Li Yunlong began to gather the remaining battalions and started to march quickly towards Jinzhong.
The 129th Division's headquarters was surrounded in Jinzhong.
