Chapter 54
Yoshio Shinozuka was very angry. The Japanese standing guard at the door felt very aggrieved. His face was swollen like a pig's head by Yoshio Shinozuka. But for some reason, he could only bow without stopping.
The Major General of the Staff Ten Times knew why Yoshio Shinozuka got angry.
Thirty planes were dispatched, but five of them were knocked out without destroying them. It was so embarrassing and too annoying.
The Chinese army's planes were almost wiped out in the early stages of the war, and the Japanese army completely controlled air supremacy. Such losses have not occurred for a long time.
If the other party sets off the plane and loses five planes in the air battle, it is acceptable. However, the other party knocks the plane out with a gun.
Yoshio Shinozuka didn't believe it at all, but the pilot who came back swears to say frankly that he really used a gun to knock it out. Although the distance was too far away, it was definitely a gun that he had never seen before.
"When will the 3rd Brigade be back?" Shinozuka Yoshio asked in a deep voice.
The major general shook his head ten times, "The Central Army didn't know what was going crazy, but suddenly launched continuous attacks. The 3rd Brigade could not withdraw from the battlefield."
Slap sex!
The slap fell on the face of the poor Japanese soldier again, and blood came out.
When Yoshio Shinozuka thought of Okamura's roar on the phone, he wanted to ask back, "Let me go to war, you're going to be soldier for me!"
But he didn't have the courage.
None of the five thousand guards came back. The defense of Taiyuan City is now extremely empty. The military police are now in three shifts and the military captain is just comforting him after complaining in the office.
"I can only do that..." Yoshio Shinozuka sighed and spoke out his countermeasures in great aggrievance.
The commander of the first army actually wanted to compromise with the bandits. When he thought of this, Yoshio Shinozuka felt extremely humiliated.
The major general's mouth moved ten times, but he didn't say anything in the end.
After a moment of silence, Yoshio Shinozuka said, "Go, I will bear all the responsibility alone."
"Hayi!" The major general exited the room ten times.
The huge arsenal was emptied. Ten times the major general called a Japanese soldier with a sinister face, and slapped him in the face, and slapped him in the face.
"It feels much better, no wonder General Shinozuka likes to slap in the face."
The Japanese soldier stared at the back of the major general ten times, his eyes extremely resentful.
"General, the arsenal has been emptied, but..."
"Has the arsenal been emptied?" Yoshio Shinozuka shook his body. The arms had just been transported from Tianjin and were to be sent to the 3rd and 10th Brigades. Now they are all gone, and they are all for the bandits...
"If it's empty, just empty. When the 3rd Brigade comes back, I will lead the 3rd Brigade to eliminate this group of bandits myself. I will definitely swear in the name of the Emperor!" Shinozuka Yoshio gritted his teeth.
"But... it's not enough." The ten-time major general said in a low voice.
"Nani? Not enough?" Shinozuka Yoshio felt the strength in his body as if he had been drained all of a sudden and collapsed on the chair.
"Just use the ocean to make up for it." After a while, Yoshino Shinozuka said weakly.
"Hayi!" Ten times the major general turned around and left the room. Before the door was closed, the sound of slapping in the face sounded in the room.
...
Xinkou!
Kong Jie actually came earlier than Qian Bojun. When he arrived, the battle had ended and he did not enter the city. Instead, he lurked around and sent people to contact Lin Qiang and Zhang Dabiao.
It was good to have an army secretly supporting him, and it was about to attack Taiyuan. The New Second Regiment could help if he stayed there. Lin Qiang did not invite Kong Jie into the city and sent someone to send a batch of arms and food to the New Second Regiment.
That's right, Lin Qiang was preparing to fight Taiyuan, because after taking Xinkou, the map in his mind represented Taiyuan's red dots flashed constantly, and Taiyuan also refreshed a batch of treasure chests with considerable numbers.
Now, Lin Qiang can use nearly 3,000 soldiers. Qian Bojun's camp has a large position, with more than 2,000 people. The Iron-blooded Powerful National Army has more than 200 foundations, and 100 Eighth Route Army soldiers who have exchanged weapons. Together with more than 200 left in Zhang Dabiao's camp, there are a total of more than 2,600 people.
If this person was replaced by the Eighth Route Army or the Central Army of the Shanxi Sui Army, he would definitely not have the courage to attack Taiyuan.
At the Battle of Xinkou, the Chinese army had not fought for more than 200,000 Japanese troops. The battle of winning the more was very rare on the battlefield of the Anti-Japanese War.
But Lin Qiang has the courage and confidence.
There are a little fewer people than two thousand people, but now they are good at hand. The light and heavy machine gun mortars are basically equipped with squad-level combat units, and the ammunition is even more open. There is also Yang Zhihua's artillery team, twenty mountain cannons, and the Type 63 rocket launcher is only one, but it is also equivalent to one artillery battalion... Such firepower can completely crush any Japanese brigade of this era.
Yoshio Shinozuka sent out all the security forces, which shows that the old Japanese have no soldiers available at the moment. This speculation has been confirmed by the intelligence of the Eighth Route Army. Now the Ministry of Security in Taiyuan City is maintained by the gendarmerie.
There is another favorable situation. In order to relieve Lin Qiang's pressure on defending Xinkou, the Eighth Route Army's chief commander personally called the Commander of the Second World War Zone, asking the Central Army's Shanxi Sui Army to delay their opponents. Xinkou's recapture is beneficial to the entire Second World War Zone. To put it bluntly, it is a military merit, and it is a very capable type. After all, the whole country knew about the Xinkou Battle.
Now Xinkou is back again, which can undoubtedly stimulate morale of the national war of resistance. The National Government also has light on its face. The bald chairman has the confidence to speak on the national radio, right?
In this matter, no one dared to make trouble. This was a loss of prosperity and loss. Therefore, the Central Army broke the norm and took the initiative to attack, delaying the Japanese 3rd and 10th Brigades. The Eighth Route Army also launched guerrillas. Local armed forces attacked the Zhengtai Railway, leaving the division with no time to care about it. The Jinsui Army entangled the 14th Brigade.
The current battle situation in Shanxi is a bit like the Li Yunlong Independent Regiment attacking Ping'an County, mobilizing almost all the power that can be mobilized.
Lin Qiang naturally had no reason to let such a good opportunity go.
Whether it is the Central Army's Jinsui Army or the Eighth Route Army, they are all trying to relieve Lin Qiang's pressure on defending Xinkou. No one would have thought that Lin Qiang would fight Taiyuan and dared to fight Taiyuan. Of course, Lin Qiang didn't tell them either.
When Lin Qiang said he wanted to attack Taiyuan, Zhang Dabiao immediately stood up and objected, "Commander Lin, Taiyuan is different from Xinkou, please think twice!"
