Pingcheng, Murano Masao's brigade headquarters, he was looking down at the information sent by Mitsuya Tsukasa.

This information is all about Zhao Zhiguo, some from the past and some recently.

"In Pingcheng, I fought against Zhao Zhiguo's troops!"

Masao Murano was originally the brigade commander. Because he suffered a defeat at the hands of Zhao Zhiguo, he was demoted to the commander of the brigade during the final attack on Pingcheng.

Later, a good opportunity came and he led a regiment of Japanese troops to defeat a division of the Shanxi-Sui Army, so he resumed his position as brigade commander.

Because he had experience fighting Zhao Zhiguo, he was transferred from the original army as a brigade commander and came to Pingcheng to take up a post.

On the way to Pingcheng, Masao Murano was already mentally prepared.

On the Chinese battlefield, Masao Murano encountered many outstanding Chinese army commanders, and many Chinese officers risked their lives and died on the battlefield.

But the best among them is of course Zhao Zhiguo.

The soldiers under Zhao Zhiguo seemed to be no different from Chinese soldiers in other units, but this unit seemed to know the tactics used by the Japanese army very well.

In other words, the officers under Zhao Zhiguo's army could find flaws in the Japanese army at any time.

This is of course due to Zhao Zhiguo's familiarity with the Japanese army. Although he is not as familiar with his own Kangtou, as a soldier, he naturally has to study this once powerful enemy.

Masao Murano couldn't understand why Zhao Zhiguo was so familiar with them when they didn't know him at all.

"Although our garrison in Pingcheng suffered little losses, the troops deployed from other directions to encircle and suppress Zhao Zhiguo basically lost more than half of their strength."

Guang Gusi has always had a huge doubt in his heart: why Zhao Zhiguo's troops are so powerful in combat.

"It's not surprising. My regiment also suffered heavy losses at the hands of Zhao Zhiguo, and Zhao Zhiguo was still fighting positional warfare."

"this……"

Since Guang Gusi's troops fought against Zhao Zhiguo, Zhao Zhiguo's troops have fought positional battles, but only very rarely.

They attacked almost everywhere in the mountains, leaving Guang Gusi's troops unsure of their direction.

"I heard that you have prepared special bombs?" Masao Murano asked.

"It was specially approved by the General Staff. It is for initial experimental use. It is unclear how powerful it will be." Kotani said, "Maybe the news leaked out, and half of the special bomb was destroyed."

Guang Gusi didn't know where Zhao Zhiguo got the information. The transportation of special bombs was top secret. He made a special report to the staff department.

Except for Guang Gusi, no one in Pingcheng knew about this matter.

"You mean there are people from Zhao Zhiguo in the staff department? Your idea is very bold!" Masao Murano's face turned ugly.

If someone in the Japanese Army Staff Department had contact with the Chinese, wouldn't it mean that they had told Zhao Zhiguo all their combat plans?

"I also thought about this possibility at first, but it was too unrealistic."

Guang Gusi also had doubts. After all, it was impossible for him to reveal the information to Zhao Zhiguo and let Zhao Zhiguo blow up the special bomb he applied for.

"Why do you think so?"

"At that time, Zhao Zhiguo's troops were fighting with our army. Only the staff knew the time of loading and transporting the special bombs. Zhao Zhiguo could not control the time so accurately."

"Maybe he's lucky! How do you plan to use these special bombs?"

Mitsuya Tsukasa glanced at Masao Murano, then walked to the map and drew a circle on the map: "This is it!"

"Isn't this place our defense zone?"

"Our defense area is good, but our troops are not stationed there. Zhao Zhiguo has more and more troops and his power is getting stronger. He will definitely need more territory to maintain the needs of his troops. This is their best place.

The way out, when the time comes, we will be able to turn this place into a no man's land without sending out a single soldier."

Guang Gusi was not idle at all, he was also thinking about how to deal with the increasingly powerful Zhao Zhiguo.

If you want to get rid of it once and for all, poison gas bombs are the best and most labor-saving weapon.

"Stop this plan temporarily and keep this plan as a backup!"

Masao Murano suspended Mitsuya Tsukasa's gas bomb plan.

"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, do you have a better idea?"

"Dig trenches and build gun towers!"

"But I heard that Zhao Zhiguo is equipped with large-caliber artillery, which is very powerful. One of our strongholds was once shelled by Zhao Zhiguo's troops."

The Japanese army has not yet investigated clearly where the cannon in Zhao Zhiguo's hands came from.

"Large caliber artillery?"

Masao Murano frowned, this was a new situation for him.

"We sent people to conduct on-site inspections, and the power is at least equivalent to our 120 mm caliber howitzer."

"How many of these cannons do they have?"

"I don't know! There are at least three gates that I know of so far!"

Although the flying thunder cannon is not a high-tech product, Zhao Zhiguo maintains a very high level of confidentiality.

Among the little devils, those who were hit by thunder cannons are basically dead, so the little devils still don’t have any information about the thunder cannons.

It was precisely because they thought there was no intelligence that the Japanese army mistook the flying thunder cannons for large-caliber artillery.

"Zhao Zhiguo pulled three cannons all the way from Anyang Town to Wang County just to blow up one of our gun towers?"

The more Masao Murano thought about it, the more questions he had.

Such a heavy cannon is difficult to disassemble and transfer, and Zhao Zhiguo and the others are unable to produce corresponding types of shells.

If Zhao Zhiguo really had such a cannon, he would definitely regard the shells as a treasure, because after all, one shot would cost one less.

How could such precious artillery shells be used to destroy a blockhouse that posed little danger to Zhao Zhiguo without blowing up the blockhouse?

"Your Excellency, the brigade commander, is wise. Maybe we were deceived by Zhao Zhiguo, but what method did he use? I can't figure it out!"

Only then did Koguji realize that he had gone astray.

His soldiers had a bad attitude towards Zhao Zhiguo's troops, which naturally affected their correct judgment of Zhao Zhiguo.

They believed that Zhao Zhiguo would obtain heavy howitzers, but Zhao Zhiguo would never waste such an important weapon on a small stronghold.

"Zhao Zhiguo may have used some kind of deception! Unfortunately, it has been so long and we cannot investigate the truth! But this is harmless. As long as our blockhouse is built at the door of Zhao Zhiguo's home, he will definitely be exposed."

Masao Murano has become much more confident.

Since he could not find Zhao Zhiguo's troops, he built gun towers and strongholds to gradually reduce Zhao Zhiguo's living space.

As long as Zhao Zhiguo's troops are circled and the scope is narrowed, the cavalry and armored troops in his hands can quickly attack and entangle Zhao Zhiguo's large troops with the advantage of rapid maneuverability.
