"Oh?" Tanabe Moritake took the telegram and read it. After reading the telegram, he couldn't help but feel slightly happy.

"Your Excellency, Chief of Staff."

Sangmu Chongming, commander of the 110th Division, asked in a hurried tone:

"Did General Okamura Neji send reinforcements?"

After this battle, Sangmu Chongming had a new view of the Eighth Route Army in the Jizhong Military Region.

The combat effectiveness of that group of farmers refreshed Sang Mu Chongming's understanding.

It turns out that the Eighth Route Army in the Jizhong area, which has been fighting the 110th Division, is so powerful?

The 110th Division, combined with the 1st Brigade and the disabled 4th Cavalry Brigade, attacked three times in a row but failed to defeat the Eighth Route Army in the central Hebei area.

Although the 110th Division is not at its peak now, the fully-staffed 1st Composite Brigade and the disabled 4th Cavalry Brigade are even more effective than the 110th Division at its peak.

The failure to defeat the Eighth Route Army in central Hebei made Sangmu Chongming feel scared for the first time.

"That's right!"

Tanabe Moritake nodded:

"The 21st Division and the 27th Division have come to us day and night from Jinan and Tianjin."

"Yoshi!"

Sang Mu Chongming looked slightly happy and said harshly:

"As long as we persist until the 21st and 27th Divisions arrive, we will definitely be able to severely damage Tubal Road!"

The Japanese had already received the news of the departure of the 21st Division and the 27th Division, but this time it was Okamura Neiji who gave the 21st Division and the 27th Division a fatal order. They must fight the attack within five days.

The locust army gathered at Niangzi Pass.

However, Lieutenant General Nishihara Kanji, commander of the 23rd Division, said: "Gentlemen, the 21st Division and the 27th Division are hundreds of kilometers away from us. I am afraid that the water far away cannot quench the thirst of the near."

"so!"

Tanabe Moritake added:

"General Okamura is going to send paratroopers to relieve us first."

"paratrooper?"

When the Japanese lieutenant generals and major generals heard this, their expressions suddenly changed.

…

Cai Dongcun.

"Captain, the Japanese troops currently surrounded by us include the 21st Regiment, 41st Division, and 24th Division of the Japanese Fifth Division."

"There are currently Japanese positions that are not surrounded, including Crouching Mountain defended by the 42nd Regiment of the Fifth Division, the remnants of the 11th Regiment, and Tianlong Mountain defended by the 28th Division."

In the new regiment, the Eighth Route Army's frontline headquarters, Chief of Staff Wang Dehou is reporting to Li Yunlong on the current situation between the enemy and ourselves:

"In addition, there are Japanese concrete bunkers and artillery positions outside Taiyuan City."

After listening to Wang Dehou's report, Li Yunlong looked extremely satisfied.

"Very good." Li Yunlong nodded, "The first phase of the strategic plan has been achieved."

"But I order all the troops not to be careless and to be on guard against Japanese breakouts and sneak attacks at night. The Japanese who are not surrounded will definitely choose to pick up the Japanese who are surrounded at night."

"Don't worry, captain." Wang Dehou smiled slightly, "I have already made arrangements. If the Japanese dare to come to meet us, they will never come back."

Li Yunlong nodded, looking more and more satisfied.

At this time.
