Chapter 515 Intelligence and Logistics!

over time.

The North China Front Army Headquarters began to send a large number of troops to Shanxi.

Moreover, the Japanese were up to their old tricks again, moving troops around to create suspicious tactics.

However, this trick of the Japs was just known to everyone on the street, and all fools knew that the Japs were going to attack the Eighth Route Army in northwest Shanxi.

The main force of the five Japanese divisions was stationed on Pinghan Road and Zhengtai Road to ensure smooth transportation.

This time, in order to eliminate the new regiment and Li Yunlong, the Japanese base camp allocated two battle supplies to Okamura Neji, that is, 0,000 tons of combat supplies, of which 4,000 tons were ammunition.

If you save some money, it will be enough to fight the Japanese divisions participating in the mopping up for a month and a half.

Last time Yoshio Shinozuka used 4 divisions to raid the base area in southeastern Shanxi, and the base camp only gave him supplies for 1 division.

Battle points are the basic material support needed by the Japanese army to conduct a battle, including -3 months of food, oil, medicine and other daily necessities and weapon parts, as well as 0 ammunition base.

Before the outbreak of the war of aggression against China, the Japanese army's reserves of arms and supplies were so pitiful that in 1937 it was necessary to transfer ammunition from the Kwantung Army to support the territory.

After learning his lesson, before launching the Pacific War, Hideji Tojo reported that the Army had reserved more than 0 battle positions, and he felt that he was good enough to punch England and kick the United States.

The Japanese used the main force of a division to protect the communication lines.

Even though the current strength of the Eighth Route Army is not what it used to be, there is not much that can be done against the Japanese. We can only watch the Japanese transport a large amount of supplies into Shanxi.

However, the head of the headquarters had the foresight to strike first, and after the Battle of Northwest Shanxi ended, he organized a major attack on the communication lines.

The railways are no longer in use, so the Japanese transport teams can only transport along the roads.

Moreover, the highway was also damaged a lot, and the Japanese engineers spent a lot of time just building bridges and building roads.

The Japanese army is preparing combat supplies, and the Eighth Route Army is not idle either. Troops from all military regions are actively training and preparing combat supplies.

Taking advantage of the Japanese division's main force to protect the communication lines, the engineering company had already dug tunnels near Datong Airport and Wusu Airport.

And transported the mountain cannon and artillery shells to the designated location by cars, manpower, and mules and horses.

Leave the radio station, high-power walkie-talkie, enough water, food and artillery behind, seal the cave entrance and erase any traces.

The artillery had to stay in the tunnel for nearly a month. After the Japanese raids on northwestern Shanxi began, the mountain artillery was pushed out of the hole, and observers guided the artillery to bombard the Japanese airport.

At the same time, the Japanese frequently sent spies to infiltrate the base areas in northwestern Shanxi.

The military and civilians in northwestern Shanxi did not show any weakness and launched vigorous counter-intelligence activities, and Japanese spies were constantly uncovered.

On this day, there were still about 0 days before the Japanese raid.

Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang, Xing Zhiguo, Wang Dehou and others were so busy that they never touched the ground.

When Chen Feng and Yan Shuangying came to Zhaojiayu Village, they saw that both the Eighth Route Army and the common people were walking in a hurry, and there was a tense atmosphere in the air.

When they heard that Chen Feng was coming, even though they were very busy, Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang quickly put aside their work to receive him in person.

In the inner room of the regiment headquarters, three people were sitting cross-legged on the Kang table.

Zhao Gang smiled bitterly: "Brother Chen, you should have seen the situation in the base area. The rain is about to come and the wind is blowing all over the building."

This time the Japanese army used several divisions to sweep away the Eighth Route Army base areas, but the three regiments in northwestern Shanxi only had more than 40,000 people when they were fully engaged.

The main forces of the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment each have only more than 0,000 men. Although they use American equipment, their strength is still too small.

In addition, the strength of the two regiments of the militia can reach 100,000 people. Although the militia uses captured weapons and equipment and equipment eliminated by the main force, after all, the training time is too short and the combat effectiveness is limited.

In fact, the main strategic goal of the three regiments in northwestern Shanxi is to protect the people in northwestern Shanxi.

The old devil Neiji Okamura's methods were even more vicious than Shun Tada's. He wanted to turn the Eighth Route Army base areas into no man's land, kill all the rats in the base areas, and shake all the eggs in the base areas.

Otherwise, Li Yunlong has support channels and can take a shot and change his place.

Escape before the Japanese raids come, and then return to the base after the Japanese have left.

As long as there is a business of killing Japanese soldiers, the soldiers of the new regiment will not worry about running out of food, weapons and ammunition.

The New Second Group and the Independent Group can also have a sip of soup by following the New First Group.

Although they are not as wealthy as the New First Regiment, the New Second Regiment and the Independent Regiment are richer than the elite divisions of the Communist Party of China in the current battle order in China.

After the Battle of Northwest Shanxi, Ding Wei and Kong Jie exchanged the business of earning more than 30 machine guns for a small number of bazookas and machine guns, and most of them were replaced by 8mm mortars.

The current size of the New Second Regiment and the Independent Regiment is directly under the jurisdiction of the mountain artillery battalion, machine gun battalion, and mortar battalion.

Although they are only organized at the battalion level, the equipment and personnel of these three battalions have reached regiment-level standards.

It is equivalent to the regiment belonging to the mountain artillery regiment, the regiment belonging to the machine artillery regiment, and the regiment belonging to the mortar regiment.

After listening to Zhao Gang's words, Chen Feng glanced at Li Yunlong, but Captain Li's expression was calm, with a bit of wild confidence.

Li Yunlong looked at Chen Feng and asked with expectant eyes: "Brother, is your military base safe? This time the Japanese army is coming fiercely. How about you come and follow the regiment headquarters so that I can protect your safety?"

On the one hand, Li Yunlong really wanted to protect Chen Feng's safety. After all, Chen Feng was the big benefactor of the New Regiment and even the entire Eighth Route Army.

If something happened to Chen Feng, Xinyi Tuan wouldn't have to give up, but it wouldn't be much different.

Commander Li Da planned to develop the new regiment into an artillery force of more than 100,000 men within one or two years. Without the support of Boss Chen, Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang alone would never be able to do it.

Therefore, Boss Chen’s safety is a top priority.

On the other hand, Li Yunlong is also a little selfish. He also knows something about Chen Feng and knows that Boss Chen is a kind-hearted person.

Boss Chen would definitely be heartbroken when he saw the sacrificed and injured soldiers on the battlefield.

If Boss Chen can provide some airdrop supplies or another opportunity for air support, it will be a huge profit.

but.

Li Yunlong estimated that Boss Chen would not come to the new regiment to act with the regiment headquarters, because he and Zhao Gang had invited them before, but they were all declined.

However, contrary to Li Yunlong's expectation, Chen Feng actually agreed this time: "Okay, no problem, I will act with your regiment this time."

Although the military base is very safe, and there are bodyguards around you at all times, like peerless masters.

But this time... Chen Feng wanted to see with his own eyes how powerful the new regiment he had supported could defeat a Japanese Class A division.

Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang looked at each other and saw a hint of joy in each other's eyes.

After laughing, Li Yunlong said: "Don't worry, Brother Chen. If any danger occurs, I can't guarantee anything else. I, Li Yunlong, will definitely die in front of you."

"Old Li, look at what you said." Zhao Gang said, "What's the matter of death?"

"Oops." Li Yunlong blamed himself, "Look at my crow's mouth, brother, I can't help it."

"It's okay. With my brother's words, I feel relieved!"

Chen Feng smiled slightly, and then explained the purpose of his visit: "Recently, brother, I have received some information about the Japanese army's raid on the base areas in northwestern Shanxi."

"oh?"

Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang's eyes suddenly lit up at the same time, and Zhao Gang quickly asked: "Brother, what information?"

Both of them knew very well that the information provided by Boss Chen was absolutely worth thousands of dollars, and there had never been any mistakes.

Chen Feng said: "I have received information that the Japanese army raided the Eighth Route Army base area in northwestern Shanxi this time. There are five divisions in total, and none of them are troops of the First Army."

"Brother, you said before," Zhao Gang said, "The Japanese army transferred three divisions from the Kwantung Army. One of them is a Category A division. Who are the other two divisions?"

Li Yunlong beside him narrowed his eyes and looked at Chen Feng.

These are five divisions, including one Category A division. The Japanese army would have to mobilize 300,000 people to cope with this configuration.

How many people did the Eighth Route Army in northwest Shanxi have?

Chen Feng said: "The three divisions of the Kwantung Army are the 10th Division, the 3rd Division, and the 3rd Division. The other two divisions are the 1st Division and the 3rd Division. These two divisions are from North China.

The division directly under the front army participated in the Battle of Zhongtiao Mountain."

"In addition, there are about 10,000 puppet troops."

"The specific tactical distribution of the Japanese army is that the 10th Division attacks the position of your New Regiment, the 3rd Division attacks the Independent Regiment, and the 1st and 3rd Division attacks the New Second Regiment."

No matter how specific the information is, Chen Feng can't get it. If Li Yunlong gets the entire contents of the battle plan drawn up by Neji Okamura himself, it will really be a battle from a God's perspective.

Contrary to Chen Feng's expectation, when Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang heard this, there was not much surprise on their faces.

Zhao Gang smiled and said: "Old Li, you have a very good strategic vision. You have actually seen through this little devil's commander, and his analysis is exactly the same as yours."

With a chuckle, Li Yunlong said: "Of course, who is our old Li?"

"You are said to be fat, but you still have asthma?"

After finishing speaking, Zhao Gang looked at Chen Feng again and asked, "Brother Chen, what is the origin of this 10th Division?"

Knowing the number of the Japanese division, Zhao Gang and Li Yunlong only need to send a telegram to the headquarters, and the headquarters will definitely know the origin of the 10th Division.

But Boss Chen came to visit in person today, and he must have information about the 10th Division.

Chen Feng said: "This 10th Division is one of the 17 permanent divisions of the Japanese Army. It is an A-type division of the Japanese Army. It was one of the 17 standing divisions of the Japanese Army before the outbreak of World War II. It is well-equipped.

Known as the Isotani Division and the Shinozuka Division, this division often used poison gas warfare in violation of international laws of war."

Li Yunlong narrowed his eyes: "Shinozuka Division? This old devil Yoshio Shinozuka has ever been the division commander of the 10th Division?"

"That's right!" Chen Feng said, "This 10th Division has a very strong fighting capacity. Although it suffered a setback in the Battle of Taierzhuang, it achieved a record of defeating 40,000 Yunnan troops with one regiment in the Battle of Xuzhou. It was transferred back in 1939

Japan was resting and recuperating. Last year, it was transferred to the Northeast and affiliated with the Kwantung Army. This time the 10th Division attacks your new regiment. This division will be strengthened during wartime, adding an artillery regiment, a machine gun brigade, and a tank regiment."
