Chapter 249 Japanese Army Yangcun Li Jiapo Decisive Battle Strategy

Luo Village and Wanggou Village are both villages under the highlands in the west of Xin County. There is a road here that can go deep.

The Yamamoto Special Agent Team, the 1st Independent Tank Squadron, and the 10th Armored Vehicle Squadron pass through here and can naturally penetrate to the rear of the independent regiment.

Yanashita Shigeharu was obviously fully prepared for this battle, and his battle plan was also perfect.

The 6th Mixed Brigade of the Royal Association Army launched a frontal attack, constantly exerting pressure on the Independent Regiment and completely containing the Independent Regiment's troops.

Then the ninth independent infantry battalion of the Japanese army quickly launched an attack from the flank and continued to attack the independent regiment.

The Yamamoto Special Agent Team and other troops penetrated along the road and advanced directly to the rear of the Independent Regiment. In this way, the Independent Regiment was in the pocket of the Japanese and puppet troops.

The independent regiment was stationed on the high ground. They could completely block the road and prevent any troops from passing through it.

But now the situation is completely different. The various units of the independent regiment stationed in the highlands are under greater pressure.

Not to mention containing the road, even holding their position is very difficult.

Yamamoto's special agent team began to take action, and they detoured from both sides.

At the same time, Yan Laoxi also contacted the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army as soon as possible to discuss the situation of joint operations.

There is no limit to the size of a detachment. A field brigade with various reinforcements can be called a detachment with tens of thousands of troops.

After Kazuki Yamamoto noticed the changes on the battlefield, he immediately made adjustments.

When the Japanese and puppet troops evacuated, they tried their best to attack them.

This time they plan to use a two-pronged approach to completely solve their inner problems!

On the other side, there were troops organized by the Japanese army's independent ninth brigade.

When the special forces use this machine gun, they naturally value its seventy-five-round drum magazine, which can ensure firepower output.

Yan Laoxi's troops are currently mainly concentrated in western Shanxi, and the 48th Independent Brigade is the northernmost unit of the Shanxi-Sui Army.

It didn't take long for Yamamoto's special agent team to demonstrate its superior combat capabilities.

Up to now, after the Yamamoto Special Agent Team suffered the previous disastrous defeat in Yangcun, their overall strength has been improved, and their weapons and equipment have been continuously enhanced.

Takeshita Ryuzo was promoted to be the lieutenant commander of the first section of the First Army!

His ability has been recognized by Yoshio Shinozuka, and Ryuzo Takeshita is an absolute pride of heaven!

Ocean gold bars, real estate, etc., Huang Daofeng can be said to have become a celebrity among the little devils.

Countless bunkers and gun towers built by them were destroyed, and North China's transportation lines were almost completely paralyzed.

Jun Tada, commander of the North China Front, personally took over the command of the operations here in Lijiapo.

Under the arrangement of the Japanese army, warnings were hung near the corpses.

So after they withdrew to the Yangcun area, the first thing they did was to report to the 48th Independent Brigade.

The Seventh Army here will ensure the safety of their junction.

The location of the Yangcun area is very important. It used to be a barrier for the general headquarters.

Fortunately, Ding Wei commanded the troops of the New Second Regiment to rush over for reinforcements.

The Japanese army also knew that using these puppet troops to strengthen the defense of the occupied areas could effectively assist the Japanese army in controlling the occupied areas.

But now, their opportunity is clearly in front of them.

Under such circumstances, the North China Front Army Headquarters has quickly formulated relevant combat plans.

These two weapons were captured by the Japanese army on the battlefield and were not suitable for their field troops at all.

Shigeharu Yanashita, commander of the 3rd independent mixed brigade, commanded the troops to launch operations, and so far they have achieved certain results.

The elite Third Regiment was completely annihilated, Captain Nobutetsu Sakata was killed, and the regiment flag was captured.

"The imperial army will definitely slaughter all those who resist!"

Many coal mines and other areas were damaged, and railways and roads, the lifelines of Japanese military transportation, were severely damaged.

The Little Japanese Army Detachment is not a regular establishment, but a force temporarily mobilized during combat.

After the troops of the new second regiment arrived, the fourth battalion strengthened the frontal defense of the independent regiment and tried its best to block the attack of the puppet troops.

News began to reach Kong Jie and Ding Wei one by one.

In order for the First Army to allow this unit to exert its due combat effectiveness, they specially dispatched Ryuzo Takeshita to take command.

To this day, it is also an important place connecting northwest Shanxi, southeast Shanxi and other base areas.

Yamamoto Kazuki felt that these two weapons were very suitable for his special agent team, so he directly received the equipment and added it to his team.

When he was a non-commissioned officer, he was the first to graduate.

However, the Yamamoto Special Agent Team still encountered no resistance, and they quickly advanced in depth.

There are also some seriously injured people who need urgent treatment.

Along the way are the Japanese and puppet troops attacking from Xin County. They will directly go deep into the Yangcun area to fight.

After a company of the Fourth Battalion of the New Second Regiment discovered the Yamamoto special agent team, they quickly intercepted it.

For a time, Huang Daofeng was very proud, and the Sixth Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Association Army was even more confident about the coming battle.

The front army headquarters will uniformly command the reinforcements, and Yamazaki Jihei's troops will conduct operations.

After all, they have always been the main defense force and have faced thousands of days of attacks by puppet troops alone.

The war has progressed to this point, and the Japanese army is very aware of the weakness of its own lack of troops.

The 1st Independent Tank Squadron, the 10th Armored Vehicle Battalion, and the Yamamoto Special Agent Team have a total strength of more than 8,000 people!

"Tubalu is vulnerable!"

They had to face attacks from the puppet troops on the front and attacks from the Japanese troops on the flanks. There was no way to defend them with all their strength.

The main force of the regiment quickly advanced towards the north and directly attacked the Japanese Independent Infantry Ninth Battalion.

The Jinsui Army can continue to expand towards the north through the 48th Independent Brigade to expand the area they control as much as possible.

The general headquarters learned about the situation and immediately contacted the New Second Regiment and the Independent Regiment to ask them to fully assist the 48th Independent Brigade in combat.

The commander of the First Army, Yoshio Shinozuka, kept giving them the green light and used all his connections.

Japanese military officers who came from the saber group have always received special attention. If there are no accidents, they can all enter the rank of generals.

Yamazaki Jihei's troops were surrounded by more than 20,000 troops from the Eighth Route Army in Lijiapo. They held on to Lijiapo to contain these troops.

Their main task is to contain the 358th Regiment in Lancheng with all their strength, and to fight side by side with Yanage Shigeharu's troops.

Therefore, Yan Laoxi made a decision immediately after careful consideration.

At eleven o'clock, the little devil specially transferred some canned meat directly to the Sixth Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Association Army.

At this time, the troops of the New Second Regiment and the Independent Regiment had gradually moved towards Yangcun.

This force has received a series of reinforcements, with a total strength of more than 2,000 people. They are a mixed force of many arms.

Chu Yunfei immediately contacted the commander's department and immediately began to mobilize troops and generals.

Most of them are two-handed. They can deal with the Eighth Route Army, but they will not be able to contribute at all against the Jinsui Army and other troops.

Here in Jin Province, most of the security forces recruited by the Japanese army are Yan Laoxi's troops.

From the initial submachine guns, grenade launchers, and machine guns, they now have stronger weapons and equipment.

The 7th Battalion of the Independent Regiment defending on the north side was under tremendous pressure. Their position was crumbling and could be broken through at any time.

Speaking of Chu Yunfei's troops of the Jinsui Army, they had cooperated with Li Yunlong and other troops in several previous battles.

The Japanese and puppet troops captured the high ground on the west side and directly opened the road to the Yangcun area.

"The consequences of confronting the imperial army!"

It was at this time that a message was sent from the First Army Headquarters.

They discussed the combat defense deployment in detail and drew up defense areas for both sides.

The combat vehicles and armored vehicle units continued to advance in depth along the road, while the Yamamoto special agent team of more than 200 people quickly circled to both sides.

During this period, the Japanese troops in North China were constantly being reprimanded, and the base camp and the dispatched army headquarters were very dissatisfied.

Snipers provided covering fire from different positions, and grenade mortars provided artillery support.

At first, Yan Laoxi arranged them here just to clear up the relationship.

Also leaving with Kusuyama Hideyoshi was the Colonel and Section Chief of the First Army.

As for the 48th Independent Brigade, if the Japs take Yangcun, they will definitely bear the brunt.

Otherwise, if it had been another unit and they had retreated like this, they would have been in a state of herding sheep.

Once a chaotic evacuation occurs, Japanese tanks, armored vehicles and other units will also exert strong lethality.

The ninth independent infantry battalion of the Japanese army attacking from the north received various reinforcements before entering Xin County.

Yamamoto Kazuki made detailed investigation and research, and they adopted better weapons and equipment.
