Lu Ming led the New Third Regiment to move to the mountainous area, and Obara Kazuaki's Fourth Cavalry Brigade no longer continued the pursuit.

At this time, the independent regiment, armored car battalion, and guard battalion troops killed a carbine.

Their troops launched an attack directly along Xuying Town and Wangtun Town.

At present, the second army of the puppet army Liu Fengyan has been completely disabled, and they have all gathered here in Xiuwu Town.

Xuying Town and Wangtun Town have Zhang Tengxiao's temporary 19th Division, which has more than 8,000 troops.

However, under the attack of the independent regiment, armored vehicle battalion, and guard battalion, they naturally did not have much room to fight back.

Zhang Tengxiao ordered the division commander Zhang Shanfeng to evacuate quickly. The puppet troops hurriedly fled the battlefield and broke away from contact.

By the morning of January 11, the independent regiment and other troops successively captured Xuying Town, Wangtun Town and other towns.

Liu Fengyan and Zhang Tengxiao's troops retreated to the Xiuwu Town and Wuli Town areas to protect the safety of the first army of the puppet army in Shanyang City.

It was at this time that the Japanese and puppet troops in the Xinxiang urban area made a series of adjustments and deployments.

Wu Wenhua's Sixth Army is gathered here in Shanyang City. Their current strength is about 12,000 people.

In their previous battles, they encountered blows and suffered certain casualties, but the main force still remained.

The New Third Regiment, under the command of Lu Ming, dispersed and detoured from Yuanyang City. Wu Wenhua did not take the initiative to attack and still chose to stand firm.

Therefore, they did not suffer too many casualties and were able to continue fighting.

The main force of the 4th Cavalry Brigade assembled in Xinxiang City and joined the 35th Division troops here.

In the battle with the armored vehicle battalion and the guard battalion, the losses of the 4th Cavalry Brigade were considerable.

Especially the cavalry troops suffered heavy casualties.

In fact, the role of cavalry on the battlefield is getting smaller and smaller now, and a large number of light and heavy machine guns and heavy weapons are a fatal threat to them.

The cavalry are so tall that they are completely useless targets on the battlefield, and there is no way they can restore their former glory.

Kazuaki Obara is now aware of this, so he pulled his troops to Xinxiang City for defense.

At this time, here in Shanyang City, Chu Yunfei's attacking division troops were still fighting against the First Army of the Puppet Army.

The two sides were fighting inextricably, and by two o'clock in the afternoon, Chu Yunfei began to mobilize the reserve team to temporarily form the ninth regiment to join the battle.

Chu Yunfei fought very hard in this battle. He wanted to become a strengthened division with two brigades and four regiments under its control.

And he also knew that many senior members of the Jinsui Army were very sensitive to this matter.

Even if Yan Laoxi intends to promote him, it will definitely not work if Chu Yunfei cannot produce decent results.

The battle in Shanyang City is still going on, and Lu Ming is leading the New Third Regiment to advance directly through the mountainous area.

They are advancing directly towards Qixian Town. Currently, there are no troops stationed in Qixian Town.

Once the New Third Regiment advances to Qixian Town, they will form a pincer attack on the puppet troops assembled in Wuli Town and Xiuwu Town.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the New Third Regiment advanced to Qixian Town, and their troops began to rest and regroup.

Up to now, the strength of the New Third Regiment has been reduced to more than 2,000 men. After all, their three companies remained in the Japanese-occupied areas to carry out guerrilla warfare.

Therefore, Lu Ming did not rush to arrange for them to attack, but rested and recovered.

It was at this time that the system started to sound.

Lu Ming checked carefully and found that his personal panel had been updated again.

Host: Lu Ming.

Position: Chief of Staff of the Northern Henan Advance Detachment.

Skills: Elite machine gun shooting technology, elite artillery shooting technology, elite rifle shooting technology.

Advanced sniper skills, eagle eye skills, weapon master, advanced driving skills.

Majors: Intermediate staff knowledge, intermediate artillery command knowledge, basic battle command knowledge, and basic joint operations knowledge of various arms.

Rating: Advanced staff ability, advanced command ability.

Professional staff ability rating:

Logistics staff capability:70.

Combat staff capability: 60.

Personnel and staff capabilities: 50.

Intelligence staff capability: 40.

Reconnaissance staff ability: 50.

Communications staff capability: 40.

This time the personal panel is much different than before, with scores of various staff abilities exceeding 300.

At the same time, he has several more abilities, such as advanced driving skills, basic battle command knowledge, etc.

"Dingdong, the system rewards the ability to repair loot."

"That is to say, all the spoils obtained from this battle can be repaired."

"Dingdong, the system rewards the host for redeeming a weapon pack."

"The host can go to the exchange mall to check."

The sound of system machinery sounded again, and Lu Ming went to check.

Here in the exchange mall, a weapon pack appears.

After the introduction through the notes, Lu Ming knew that the weapon pack contained a large number of weapons and equipment.

Lu Ming can exchange 30,000 points to obtain the weapons and equipment in the weapon bag.

At this time, Lu Ming only had 30,000 points. Of course, he could choose not to redeem them.

But Lu Ming thought about it and finally redeemed the weapon pack.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Ming couldn't wait to open the weapon bag.

Six Skoda VZ30 100MM howitzers.

Twelve Skoda VZ30 76.2MM field guns.

Eighteen Skoda VZ24 75MM mountain guns.

Sixty Czech-style light machine guns and forty Czech-style heavy machine guns.

In addition to these artillery, light and heavy machine guns, there are also some other weapons and ammunition.

Overall, Lu Ming thinks it's pretty good.

Of course, he couldn't extract all these weapons and equipment at once, otherwise he could only extract them gradually if they were unexplainable.

Lu Ming thought that after the battle was over, he would have to deal with this matter specifically.

At this time, in Xinxiang City, Japanese commanders Iida Taijiro and Obara Kazaki were having repeated discussions.

After the two people hesitated for a long time, they did not adopt the main attack strategy, but proposed a retreat plan.

At around eleven o'clock, Dou Dianguang's Puppet Army's First Army stationed in Shanyang City began to retreat quickly, and they completely abandoned Shanyang City.

At the same time, the puppet Fourth Route Army troops began to gather their main forces in Wuli Town and Xiuwu Town.

The main force of the 4th Cavalry Brigade also left Xinxiang City and was deployed behind them to maintain contact between the Japanese and puppet troops.

Wu Wenming's Sixth Army advanced into Xinxiang City and was ready to support operations at any time.

After Chu Yunfei discovered that the puppet troops had withdrawn, they quickly gathered their main forces in Shanyang City and quickly took control of various positions.

Li Yunlong, the leader of the advancing detachment, immediately sent a message to Lu Ming. He was preparing to take over Lu Ming's command.

Lu Ming, on the other hand, returned with the loot and at the same time made arrangements for the deployment of the detachment.

In this battle, the Henan Northern Advance Detachment fought with a bit too much force.

They directly destroyed the southern defense line of the Japanese and puppet troops, allowing Chu Yunfei's troops to capture Shanyang City.

Next, the Henan Northern Advance Detachment must make preparations in all aspects.

A large amount of loot began to be transported, returned directly to the Huaiqing City area, and handed over to the maintenance factory affiliated to the detachment for repair.

Because of the system, these trophies can naturally be repaired.

Time passed bit by bit, and on January 12, Chu Yunfei's attackers completely captured Shanyang City.

At the same time, they began to set up warning positions and main positions towards the east, and were ready to hold on.

The Japanese and puppet troops maintained a confrontation with Chu Yunfei's troops, but there was no large-scale battle between the two sides.

At this time, the Henan Northern Advance Detachment focused on maintaining control of the Wucheng, Wangtun Town, and Xuying Town areas.

Independent regiments, armored vehicle battalions, and guard battalions are deployed here.

The troops of the New Third Regiment gave up control of Qixian Town and returned to Jiyuan City for rest and recuperation.

Lu Ming took six Skoda 75MM mountain guns from the weapons package and organized them into a mountain gun battery.
