Chapter 738: What is it like to command a brigade commander?
Li Yunlong has always been thinking about this senior Japanese agent.
Based on the clues currently available about this senior agent, three conclusions can be drawn.
First, this senior agent has not been in the new group for too long.
Second, this senior agent's position in the New Regiment is relatively low.
The third thing is that this senior Japanese agent carried a radio.
"The first phase of screening has been completed."
Zhao Gang replied: "We have locked down some lists of suspects, and various units are preparing to fish out this senior agent."
Li Yunlong nodded: "It's best to find out this Japanese senior agent before this battle, so as not to let this Japanese destroy our major event."
Although last time, the New Regiment ambushed the 1st Division, this so-called senior Japanese agent did not pass on the information.
But this time Li Yunlong didn't dare to gamble. This senior agent had a single line of contact with the North China Front Army Headquarters. If Okamura Neiji knew about Li Yunlong's battle plan of claiming the north and attacking the south, it would be very bad.
What's more, Li Yunlong has long coveted those 2,000 Japanese army horses.
"clear!"
Zhao Gang nodded and thought carefully about how to get the senior agent to take the bait as soon as possible.
Li Yunlong added: "Such a big battle plan and emergency preparedness can't be explained clearly in a few words in the telegram. After the battle plan comes out, I will ask Boss Chen to arrange a special plane, take the battle plan to southeast Shanxi, and talk to the head of the headquarters.
, improve combat plans and emergency preparedness.”
This time in the battle plan, not only the Northern Shanxi Iron Triangle will participate in the battle.
It will also involve the main force of the 129th Division, including the main force of the 385th Brigade and the 386th Brigade.
After all, it was necessary to encircle the Japanese 37th Division and 33rd Division from the north and the south.
On Wang Dehou's side, all he was doing was the new second regiment and the independent regiment, as well as the battle plan of the new first regiment.
In order to cooperate well with the 129th Division, the 129th Division's combat plan and emergency preparedness must also be based on the new regiment's combat plan.
Wang Dehou's expression changed, as if he had thought of something, and then he said: "Commander, I suddenly came up with an idea. If the 386th Brigade and the 385th Brigade of the 129th Division are also under your command in this battle, wouldn't they be the main force of our 129th Division?
Can we also get the opportunity to air-drop supplies and reimburse ammunition?”
When Li Yunlong heard this, his eyes couldn't help but light up slightly.
The three regiments in northwestern Shanxi alone must have a main force of 80,000 people. Together with the main force dispatched by the 129th Division, the total main force participating in the war may exceed 200,000.
Needless to say, the airdropped supplies and ammunition for the three regiments in northwestern Shanxi were reimbursed.
However, the main force of the 129th Division did not have the opportunity to airdrop supplies and reimburse post-war ammunition.
And there is another point, if this main force is commanded by Li Yunlong, they will also receive steel helmets.
After all, Boss Chen himself said at the beginning that no matter how large Li Yunlong's army became, Boss Chen would be responsible for the helmets.
Of course, what excites Li Yunlong the most is that he will be able to command the 386 Brigade in combat.
What is it like to command a brigade commander?
Li Yunlong has never experienced it, but he wants to give it a try.
Although he was very worried, Li Yunlong said with a humble expression: "This is not appropriate. How can we, Mr. Li, command a 200,000-strong main force? Besides, Boss Chen and the head of the headquarters may not agree to it.
."
Xing Zhiguo smiled slightly: "Commander, you are being humble. With your current tactical command ability, it is more than enough to command a main force of 200,000 in combat."
Zhao Gang, Xing Zhiguo, Wang Dehou and Zhang Dabiao also nodded.
Today, Li Yunlong himself does not realize how much he has changed, but everyone around him can deeply understand how much Li Yunlong has changed.
Although his personality has not changed much, in other aspects, such as his physical skills, military command ability, etc., it is a huge change and improvement in the whole person from the inside out.
Although he has no academic qualifications, Li Yunlong is now a serious intellectual.
Not only Li Yunlong, but also Zhao Gang, Xing Zhiguo, Wang Dehou and the battalion commanders of each battalion.
Every day I repeatedly study the military theory books and tactics books sent by Boss Chen.
Li Yunlong, the group leader, has played a very good leading role, and now the learning atmosphere of the new group is quite strong.
Even people like Sun Desheng and Wei Dayong all fell in love with learning.
The tactical command capabilities and military theoretical knowledge, including those of battalion commanders, are not only improving by leaps and bounds, but they are also growing day by day.
Zhao Gang smiled and said: "Based on Boss Chen's previous support for our new regiment, he probably also wants to see you, Lao Li, commanding more than 200,000 main troops in combat."
Wang Dehou also smiled and said: "The head of the headquarters, I think he will agree. This is an opportunity for more than 100,000 steel helmets and more than 100,000 main combat airdrop supplies and ammunition reimbursement. The head of the headquarters should have no reason to refuse."
Li Yunlong glanced at everyone, with a very moved expression on his face: "Okay, then I will discuss it with Brother Chen, and when I go to southeast Shanxi to discuss the battle plan, I will apply to the head of the headquarters."
For Li Yunlong, it doesn't matter whether he can succeed or not.
Anyway, if you give it a try, you won’t suffer any loss, and you won’t be fooled. Li Yunlong has nothing to lose.
"Then let's do this for today."
Li Yunlong nodded, and then ordered: "Chief of Staff, your staff department will make a battle plan for the new first regiment, the new second regiment and the independent regiment as soon as possible. Old Zhao, please find senior agents over there and hurry up."
"Deputy Commander Xing, please let go of the work at the arsenal and the airport, and leave all the work to Zhang Wanhe temporarily."
"That's all for tonight's meeting, adjourn!"
Everyone immediately walked outside.
Li Yunlong walked into the inner room of the regiment headquarters, took out the radio phone, put the battery on, turned on the phone, adjusted the channel, and started calling Boss Chen.
Soon, the call was connected, but the person on the line was Yan Shuangying.
Boss Chen is training at this time.
Li Yunlong told Yan Shuangying that he wanted to meet with Boss Chen at his old place tomorrow. He had a big business deal to discuss, and Yan Shuangying would convey it on his behalf.
The next day, Boss Chen and Yan Shuangying arrived as scheduled.
At the regiment headquarters, Boss Chen was treated with the highest standards by the New Regiment.
During the banquet.
Li Yunlong proposed the battle plan of attacking the north and attacking the south, and asked Boss Chen if the troops of the 129th Division attacking the Japanese Zhengtai Railway were under his command, the total strength would be no less than 200,000.
Let’s see if Boss Chen can provide helmets and airdrop supplies on the battlefield, and reimburse the weapons and ammunition after the battle is won.
Chen Feng thought it was some big deal, but it turned out that he agreed to Li Yunlong on the spot.
He also wished Li Yunlong could command one million troops as soon as possible and conduct joint sea, land and air operations.
Hearing this, Li Yunlong was so excited that he stayed awake for half the night. When he got up the next day, Captain Li was full of energy.
…
Taiyuan.
First Army Headquarters.
Yamamoto Kazuki walked quickly into the commander's office with a major general's sword on his shoulder. His feet clicked together, then he lowered his head and said, "Your Excellency, Commander, are you looking for me?"
"Yamamoto-kun."
Iwamatsu Yoshio hung up the phone, looked at Yamamoto Kazuki and said:
"I have good news for you. The Ordnance Department of the base camp sent 100 anti-tank weapons to our First Army."
"The Ordnance Department has tested it. This anti-tank weapon has a very good armor-breaking effect, and the armor-breaking depth can reach 150mm."
"Arrived at Wusu Airport around two o'clock this afternoon."
After Wusu Airport was bombarded, the First Army repaired Wusu Airport again.
Although all the fighters, bombers and reconnaissance aircraft assigned to the First Army by Okamura Neji were destroyed, three transport aircraft escaped.
The communication between the personnel of the First Army and Peking relies entirely on these three transport planes.
One of the transport planes was specially sent to Peiping by Yoshio Iwamatsu to pick up 100 anti-tank weapons.
Kazuo Iwamatsu attaches great importance to these 100 anti-tank weapons. It is not safe to take the Shotai Railway because he is afraid that the Eighth Route Army will rob him halfway.
Although there is a risk of being shot down when transported by air, the risk is much smaller. Even if the transport plane is shot down, these anti-tank weapons will not fall into the hands of the Eighth Route Army.
In order to prevent the news from leaking, Yoshio Iwamatsu told no one. He only told Kazuki Yamamoto when the transport plane was about to arrive at Takejuku Airport.
"Yoshi!"
Hearing the news, Yamamoto Kazuki looked slightly happy.
He was deeply impressed by the anti-tank weapons in the hands of the Eighth Route Army.
As powerful as a 105mm howitzer!
If the Locust Army is also equipped with such anti-tank weapons, why should they be afraid of the Eighth Route Army's heavy tanks?
Kazuki Yamamoto looked at the watch on his hand. In half an hour, the transport plane transporting 100 anti-tank weapons would land at Takesu Airport.
"Yamamoto-kun!" Yoshio Iwamatsu ordered: "Immediately lead a special agent team to Takesu Airport and escort these anti-tank weapons to the headquarters."
"Hi!" Yamamoto Kazuki paused, lowered his head, turned around and left quickly.
When leaving, Yamamoto Kazuki thought to himself that dispatching a special agent team to escort 100 anti-tank weapons was enough to show that the commander attached great importance to these anti-tank weapons.
When Yamamoto Kazuki led the special team to Wusu Airport by car, the transport plane happened to land on the runway. The airport ground staff lifted the anti-tank weapons off the plane and then onto the Type 94 truck.
Looking at the rectangular weapon boxes, Yamamoto Kazuki felt slightly happy.
Yamamoto judged from the length of the weapon box that this weapon should be about the same length as the Eighth Route Army's anti-tank weapon.
Yossi!
Even if it's not imitation but plagiarism, it doesn't matter to Yamamoto.
As long as this weapon exerts great power on the battlefield, it can kill most of the heavy tanks of the Eighth Route Army.
Then Yamamoto Kazuki will be recorded in the history of the empire. After all, he led a special team to snatch this weapon from the Eighth Route Army, so that the Ordnance Department had the opportunity to research and imitate it.
Soon, 100 anti-tank weapons were loaded onto the Type 94 truck, which filled four vehicles.
"Go back to headquarters!"
Under Yamamoto's order, the special agents stood ready and escorted the anti-tank weapons produced by the Japanese army in vehicles toward Taiyuan.
