The commander of North China now dares not attack Hu Bin, or dares not attack the Eighth Route Army at the junction of Shanxi and Henan, because the two divisions there have other more important tasks, which is to provide support for the attacks in Changsha at any time.??

If the loss of troops is too large, once the front-line attack is frustrated, then there will be no troops to provide support later, and the entire battle will fall into failure. Therefore, Sugiyama Moto was very clear about it and not fight for the first time, and the defense is the main focus.

But Nishio Suzusa didn't think so. Hu Bin was on his side, so he couldn't sleep. Who knew when Hu Bin would take his command as a target? Once Hu Bin regarded his command as a target, he would definitely not be able to survive. So he sent a telegram to the Japanese base camp.

The Japanese base camp actually hated Hu Bin very much. After knowing Hu Bin's location, they also started to discuss it. In the end, they agreed to Nishio Suzuo take the initiative to kill Hu Bin.

Sugiyama Tsuki saw that the base camp was coming to provide support to Nishio Suzuya, and after killing Hu Bin's telegram, he sighed. He still remembered that when Sakaki Tanuchi was handing over, he told him such a sentence.

If Hu Bin is there, then you must be careful when attacking, and never be careless. Once you are careless, if Hu Bin seizes the opportunity, you will be fatal attacked. Moreover, if you do not take action, you must gather at least 10 divisions to encircle the Eighth Route Army troops.

Otherwise, one or two divisions would not be a threat to the Eighth Route Army, and would instead cause a greater blow to the Japanese troops.

"His Excellency Commander, there is a telegram coming from the base camp. Do we want to provide more support to General Nishio Sugita?" the chief of staff looked at Sugiyama Moto and asked.

"Hey, mobilize a division from Shandong to help Nishio Suzuki build defense and not participate in the attack!" Sugiyama Moto sighed and ordered.??

"Hi!" The Chief of Staff heard this and responded. However, he still looked down on Sugiyama Sora, as he thought Sugiyama Sora was a little cowardly. This was completely inconsistent with the morale of the Imperial General.

Soon, it was evening. Hu Bin immediately summoned the platoon leaders and reserve cadres to hold a meeting to discuss and learn about the experience of the attack. He asked the platoon leaders to analyze and learn. He was busy until late at night, and the next morning, he continued to train and study at night.

On the third day, Hu Bin was still training the troops. At this time, Mo She ran over from a distance and handed it to Hu Bin with a telegram.

"What's wrong?" Hu Bin was looking at the soldiers training in the distance. When he saw Mo Sho running over in a hurry, he started asking.

"You'd better read the telegram!" Mo She signaled Hu Bin to read the telegram. Hu Bin heard it, took the telegram, and looked carefully.

"Ha, I'm looking for death!" Hu Bin smiled after seeing the telegram.

"You can't laugh, the Japanese dispatched two divisions and two divisions!" Mo She said from the side.

"I'm not afraid of 10 divisions, and I don't fight him head-on. What are you afraid of? I can't hide if I can't beat you!" Hu Bin finished the telegram and said indifferently.

"Report, there was a convoy outside, and there seemed to be a tank, saying that it was sent to us!" At this time, a cadre on duty ran over and said to Hu Bin.

"It's just here, let's go and see!" Hu Bin said with a smile after hearing the report.

Soon, the tanks were sent to the training ground. After Hu Bin arranged the soldiers who sent the tanks to rest, he led the veterans to start training to drive the tanks.

Hu Bin, Huang Wenjin, Li Qinwei and others personally demonstrated the soldiers, and then sat on the co-pilot to guide the soldiers to control the tanks. They not only had to know how to drive, but also had to fight. Not only did they know how to fight, but they had to know how to fire.

The two tanks started to be delivered until late at night, and continued to train for the soldiers the next day.

Hu Bin went to Wang Zhixian's command center early in the morning. As soon as he entered, he was stopped by Li Tianxing.

"Xiaobin, sit here, you kid, you awesome. After fighting several battles, you didn't see you kid at all. Why did you go?" Li Tianxing asked with a smile.

"Take it down, you brigade commander, can you still want to see me as the commander?" Hu Bin deliberately said back.

"You kid don't bring such a person. You don't take me seriously, the brigade commander seriously. However, I heard that your army has a lot of good things. How about it? I'll share it with me?" Li Tianxing pointed at Hu Bin and cursed with a smile, and leaned over and said in a low voice.

"No, I'll give it to you, the brigade commander will kill me." Hu Bin shook his head and said.

"Kill you, come to me!" Li Tianxing patted his chest and promised.

"Hehe, don't believe it if you kill me." Hu Bin laughed when he heard it.

"Damn, the married daughter just has no status!" Li Tianxing said deliberately sighing.

"Okay, this time we are going to fight. Be careful, you don't have many troops at all, they are recruits, and they are plains. You are in a difficult situation to win!" Hu Bin reminded Li Tianxing and said.

"I know, aren't you worried about this? The division commander summoned us here, probably this is it. Damn, what do you think of the Japanese? Why do you think about coming to sweep this time?" Li Tianxing heard it and nodded, knowing that if the fight really started this time, the casualties of the Eighth Route Army would be small.

"All are here?" Wang Zhixian walked in and saw that there were people sitting inside, so he asked.

"Everything is here!" said the chief of staff on the side.

"It's good that you're here. Have you seen the telegram? There are 2 divisions, damn, we only have three divisions, and the Japanese actually dispatched two divisions and chariot troops. I really look down on me!" Wang Zhixian raised two fingers and started cursing.

Everyone looked at him and didn't dare to scold him. The Japanese should fight or beat him. It is useless to scold him. He has to see the truth on the battlefield.

"This time, all troops will be dispatched. The hospital will move 50 kilometers to Shanxi. The same is true for other institutions. People will transfer if they can. If they don't transfer, we will try our best to convince them. If there is no way, they will only be able to suffer the Japanese.

Also, Lao Liu, your brigade has the defense in the northeast direction, and it will be deployed along the forest, and fortifications are made, especially the anti-aircraft holes. It must be repaired. In addition, it is to prevent the impact of the tank troops and tell the soldiers how to blow up those tanks.

Xiao Li, your brigade is here, here, unfolding, and you must also repair fortifications, and tell the soldiers how to blow up tanks. Many of our recruits here have never even seen enemy tanks. You'd better make a model and tell the soldiers where the tank is the best place to blow up, and you must hurry up and practice! Huh!" After Wang Zhixian finished speaking, he breathed out.

Since he received the information last night, he has been thinking about how to defend against the Japanese's sweep. No matter how he thought about it, the troops of the three divisions were not as large as those of the Japanese divisions. The Japanese were well-equipped, as well as aircraft, cannons, tanks, and were still in plains, so he had no way to fight.

Now they can only defend themselves first, because the headquarters has already contacted the Jinsui Army and the Central Army, and the troops on both sides will also wait for an opportunity to take action. As for whether they will really participate in the attack, no one knows, and they can only wait until the fight begins to know.

"Niang Xipi, the Second Army on the border between Shanxi and Henan is preparing to sweep the Eighth Route Army. We must kill them. If we kill them, we will reduce the pressure on our battles in Changsha, and we will telegraph our troops there and Commander Yan. Once the Japanese have developed fortifications, we must take the initiative to attack.

No matter how much the price is, we must get rid of these two divisions. As long as we kill these two divisions, the Japanese will either not have enough reserve troops when attacking, or they can only wait to replenish the troops, give us Changsha's battle and win more time." After receiving the notice from the Eighth Route Army, Jiang Cheng said very firmly.

"Yes, I don't know what's going on over there. You said, why did those Japanese attack actively at this time have no value at all, I'm surprised!" Chen Cheng said from the side.

"I guess it was because the Eighth Route Army attacked their airport before. In addition, I heard that the Eighth Route Army dispatched troops recently and took the initiative to attack the Japanese positions, causing considerable casualties to the Japanese.

According to the information from our side, the Japanese actually mobilized an infantry corps and a chariot corps from the headquarters to the 1o8th Division. Therefore, the Japanese wanted to get rid of these eighth routes in one fell swoop!" He Yingqin answered the words from the side.

"You said, why did the Eighth Route Army dare to attack the Japanese on its own initiative and achieve good results? But every time our troops fought, even if they were victorious, they were exchanged for huge casualties. Moreover, our equipment was obviously better than those on the Eighth Route Army. Why?" Jiang Zhengshu asked as he looked at the generals.

This immediately asked the generals, and no one knew how to answer. However, the major general who managed intelligence at the end wanted to speak.

"Say whatever you want!" After seeing it, Commander Jiang said to the major general.

"According to the intelligence collected from us, the attack on the Japanese Tangyin County Airport and the defensive positions of the 14th Division and 1o8th Division this Eighth Route Army attack were troops led by Hu Bin!" the major general said.

"Who?" Jiang Tongshuai heard this, but he didn't remember it for a moment, and immediately stared at the major general who managed the intelligence and asked. (To be continued.)
