"Nani?"

After receiving the report from the aviation force, Hanagu was shocked.

Iwamatsu Yoshiaki's intentions suddenly sank, and the loss was a bit huge.

The more than 30 tons of ammunition are second, the key is the more than 500 veterans of the Kwantung Army!

These more than 500 veterans of the Kwantung Army were all elite veterans drawn from the 1st Division and the 2nd Division, and were preparing to be promoted to non-commissioned officers and enriched to the 36th, 37th and 41st Divisions as grassroots backbone officers.

Yoshio Iwamatsu also hopes to improve the combat effectiveness of the 36th, 37th and 41st Divisions through these more than 500 key veterans of the Kwantung Army. Now, it is better that the Eighth Route Army Independent Regiment was completely wiped out in Yelangyu.

"Baga!" Yoshio Iwamatsu was so angry that he threw the teacup in his hand on the wooden floor.

The first real battle with the Eighth Route Army came a little unexpectedly.

Moreover, in the first fight, the Eighth Route Army Independent Regiment gave Yoshio Iwamatsu a warning.

The collective shattering of more than 500 elite Kanto Army veterans suddenly disrupted the rhythm of Yoshio Iwamatsu.

As the saying goes, if one step is wrong, every step is wrong, the military reorganization work in the entire southeastern Shanxi will be seriously affected.

But Masaya Hana still didn't believe it, frowned and continued to ask Shibata Nobuichi, the commander of the 9th Flight Regiment, "Shibata, will the aviation army get it wrong? How is it possible?"

"Chief of Staff, it's impossible to make a mistake."

Shibata Nobuic said: "More than one pilot reported,"

"I saw the neatly arranged corpses of the imperial soldiers on the road in Yelangyu."

Hua Guzheng still didn't believe it and said angrily: "How do you make sure that those are the corpses of the imperial soldiers?"

"The Eighth Route Army will not let their people slap their bodies on the road." Shibata Nobuichi said, "More importantly, it is absolutely impossible for Chinese people to wear a loincloth."

"Hangu Jun."

Hanaya Masato was still questioning, but was interrupted by Yoshio Iwamatsu.

"Hayi." Hanagu Masato paused and said, "Mr. Commander, I'm a little out of my composure."

"The collective shattering of more than 500 elite Kanto Army veterans is indeed shocking." Yoshio Iwamatsu said, "But this is not the end of the world, and you can just attract attention in the future."

"Hayi!" Hua Guzheng paused again.

"Considering that the Eighth Route Army Independent Regiment has recovered its combat effectiveness,"

"The road from Shuiquan to Fu'an can no longer bear the heavy responsibility of transporting personnel and materials."

"In the future, all personnel and materials of the 1st Army should be better off taking Tongpu Road or Zhengtai Road. If possible, it is better to take the Zhengtai Railway. The Zhengtai Railway is still safe at the moment."

Although Yoshio Shinozuka's A combat plan failed.

But it was not a single result. At least the threat from Zhengtai Railway has been lifted.

Because there is no Eighth Route Army in the north of the Zhengtai Railway within a radius of 100 kilometers, the 4th Brigade only needs to concentrate on defending the Eighth Route Army in the south of the Zhengtai Railway, and the pressure is much smaller than before.

After a pause, Hanagu Masato said again: "Mr. Commander, have you ordered the 2nd Division of the Guards to launch a large-scale retaliation against the Eighth Route Army Independent Regiment?"

This is also the usual style of the Japanese army.

After suffering losses, you must take revenge.

However, this time, Yoshio Iwamatsu shook his head and said, "Forget it, it's not the time yet."

After saying this, he said: "The most important thing now is the negotiations with Yan Xishan. In order not to cause trouble, it is best not to have any large-scale military operations during this period."

"I understand." Hanagu Masato, "Remember this account first."

"But you can't do nothing," said Yoshio Iwamatsu.

Hanaguchi Masahiro: "Your Excellency Commander, what do you mean?"

Yoshio Iwamatsu said: "From now on, the strictest economic blockade policy will be implemented on the bandit areas in Shanxi, and one needle and one thread will not flow into the various bandit areas of the Eighth Route Army."

"It's not only northwest Shanxi, but also southeast Shanxi."

"We must completely trap the Eighth Route Army from the economic level."

"Let the Eighth Route Army have no food and no clothes to wear,"

"There is no funding to buy salt, medicine and other supplies."

"In less than half a year, the Eighth Route Army will become weak."

"Half a year later, our negotiations with Yan Xishan should have been successful."

"At this time, the Imperial Army can join forces with the Shanxi-Sui Army to launch the final general attack on the Eighth Route Army."

Speaking of this, Yoshio Iwamatsu said confidently: "There is reason to believe that even if all the Eighth Route Army cannot be wiped out, the public security situation in Shanxi will usher in a major change."

...

Anhua, the 2nd Guard Division.

A straight-shaped colonel officer walked into Miyano Doichi's office with a saber, then slammed his feet and stood at him, saluted at Miyano Doic who was sitting behind the big table and said, "Second Commander!"

"Oh, Nishize-kun, you have finally arrived!" Miyano Dao raised his head and saw this colonel. He was overjoyed and quickly put down the brush in his hand and stood up to meet him.

"Xizejun, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

It turns out that this Japanese colonel is Shigeo Nishizawa.

He is also a classmate of Munich Special School in Yamamoto Ichiki.

"Smimase." Shigeo Nishizawa said, "Because some of the special schools' work needs to be handed over, it has been delayed for a few days. The division commander, you have been waiting for a long time. I'm so embarrassed."

Miyano Doichi smiled and said, "Have you met the Commander?"

"Yes." Nishizawa Shigeo said, "I went to Taiyuan before coming to Anhua."

Miyano Duichi nodded softly and said, "Have you said something to you, Commander?"

"No." Shigeo Nishizawa shook his head, "Just let me come to Anhua as soon as possible to report to you."

Hearing this, Miyano Doichi already knew Yoshio Iwamatsu’s true thoughts. Obviously, this is another continental military politician who has a deep-rooted prejudice against special operations. The former commander Yoshio Shinozuka used the gift given to him by his adjutant Yuta Ichihara, but it seems that it did not play any role.

It may also be because of this matter that Okamura Yasuji personally took charge of it.

So Yoshio Iwamatsu doesn't want to get involved in the special forces.

However, regardless of whether Iwamatsu Yoshio attaches importance to it, forming a special forces is imperative.

Because the many cases of war that occurred on the battlefield in Shanxi in the past year have fully proved the irreplaceable decisive role of special operations in modern warfare.

The 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army can achieve such a record,

It is absolutely inseparable from the special forces commanded by Wang Ye.

"Okay." Miyanodo nodded and said, "Have you received the information I asked the Navy to send you?"

"Yes, I've received it." Shigeo Nishizawa paused again and said, "I took the time to take a look on the way here, but the information was too simple and I have a few questions."

"Question?" Miyano asked, "What's the question?"

Shigeo Nishizawa said: "That Wang Ye, the information says that he had received special combat training in the Soviet Union or beautiful country. However, I reviewed the information of all senior Eighth Route Army generals who had attended military academies abroad from the Special High School Class and found that there was no one named Wang Ye, so would this Wang Ye be just a pseudonym?"

"This is possible," Miyano said, "You need to solve this mystery."

Shigeo Nishizawa said: "There is also Li Yunlong, who is just a regiment commander of the Eighth Route Army. In terms of position and military rank, he does not even have the qualifications to collect information by the Special High School. He is really qualified to be the target of the Imperial Special Forces? Is this a waste of special operations resources?"

Miyano Doichi's brows frowned suddenly.

How does it look the same as Yamamoto Ichiki's idea?

Are all those who learn special operations?

Miyano Doichi asked patiently: "Nizawa Jun, have you really read the information I gave you seriously? If you have read it carefully, have you not found any regularity?"

Shigeo Nishizawa said: "Second Commander, I don't understand what you mean."

Miyano Daoichi said: "Didn't you notice the results of Li Yunlong?"

Shigeo Nishizawa was speechless, okay, he actually just browsed it through it briefly.

Miyano Daichi Miyako calculated with his fingers: "When Li Yunlong was the leader of the new 1st regiment, he launched a beheading battle against the Sakata United, causing the gang leader Colonel Nobute Sakata to break up."

"Short after being transferred to the independent regiment commander, the Black Island Cavalry Regiment was ambushed again."

"The Black Island United team has more than 1,300 imperial soldiers from the wing captain Kuroshima Morita."

"Then it is Yamazaki Battalion, then the North China Front Army Battlefield Observation Group, then the 4th and 9th Brigades, and finally your old classmate Yamamoto Ichiki."

"Sakata Nobutetsu, the rank of Colonel."

"Yamazaki Orihei, the rank of Colonel."

"Kuroshima Morita, rank of Colonel."

"Yamamoto Ichiki, the rank of Colonel."

"Hide Maeda, rank of major general."

"Yunei Yui, the rank of major general."

"Hatsuke Naoshi, rank of major general."
