    In Jiro Montenegro¡¯s impression, the Eighth Route Army was a small group of guerrillas that crawled around in cornfields and woods every day and liked to sneak attack on gun towers when they had nothing to do.

    Even though he was besieged in the Shijiazhuang area, he never saw the Eighth Route Army troops and launched a large-scale attack against them.

    Mainly, he was stationed in the north of Shijiazhuang at that time, mainly fighting against Liu Fudong's Kagel Combat Division.  There was no chance of a head-on confrontation with the main force of the Eighth Route Army.

    "Jiashan Jun, tell me, what is the combat effectiveness of the Eighth Route Army troops blocking us from the front?"

    Jiro Kuroyama said as he observed the wilderness ahead with a telescope.

    Next to him, Watanabe Yoshizen, is his chief of staff.

    Originally, he was just a staff officer.  However, the original chief of staff of the North China Expeditionary Force was surrounded by troops from the Fourth Army last night and was eventually killed on the battlefield.

    Watanabe Yoshizen has changed from the original acting chief of staff to the official chief of staff.

    After hearing Jiro Kuroyama's words, Watanabe Kazen, who was short, fat, fair-skinned and wearing glasses, puffed out his belly and said: "I was east of Shijiazhuang. There was a time when I was on the front line to replace the fallen Nagakawa Brigade.  Long, the troops blocking the Eighth Route Army's attack.

    My impression of this unit is that its weapons and equipment are average, but its will to fight is extremely tenacious.

    Not only that, their commanders are also very capable.  Especially high-level commanders are very methodical when directing operations.

    To a certain extent, I think their mid-level and high-level commanders are much better qualified in military matters than our officers who only know how to follow the script and forcefully transfer things from military schools to the battlefield.  "

    Watanabe Yoshizen is not the kind of proud person. In fact, the comparison of strength between China and Japan at this time does not allow him to have any pride anymore.

    Jiro Kuroyama smiled and said: "I didn't expect that, Jiashan-kun, your evaluation of the enemy would be so high.

    According to you, the troops of the Eighth Route Army are just the Fourth Army with worse equipment?  "

    "That's right. To a certain extent, the fighting willpower of the soldiers at the bottom of the Fourth Army is actually not as good as those of the Tubalu who have always been looked down upon by us."

    As Watanabe Kazan said, he put down the telescope and patted his belly with his palm.

    Jiro Kuroyama, who was standing next to him, looked behind him at the soldiers who were resting and swaying on both sides of the road, and said with some worry: "If this is the case, then we don't know if our tired division can still successfully break through the enemy."  Line of defense."

    "It should be possible. The Eighth Route Army is not like the Fourth Army. They have many advanced weapons in defensive operations.

    Not only do they lack weapons, they also lack ammunition.

    Often the ammunition in one position can only allow them to continue fighting for about an hour.

    After an hour, their ammunition was completely consumed, and they could only choose to engage in hand-to-hand combat with us.  "

    Watanabe Jiazen said.

    Jiro Kuroyama nodded and said: "In half an hour, let the soldiers rest for another half hour, and then we will launch an attack on the enemy's blocking troops in front."

    Watanabe Jiazen immediately said: "Hai!!"

    With that said, he immediately turned around and began to convey orders to the commanders of each unit.

    At this time, opposite them, two regiments of the 118th Division led by Wu Xinchuan were arranging the first line of defense in the front.

    Xie Wenbin, the commander of the first regiment, and Bai Yaowen, the commander of the second regiment, one tall and one short, were standing on the trench position, observing the woods in the distance with binoculars.

    ¡°The little devil has two scout troops, hiding in that forest.

    They may have seen our defensive position.  "

    Xie Wenbin said while straightening his tall body.

    Bai Yaowen, who was next to him, raised his head, glanced at Xie Wenbin, who was a head taller than him, and said, "Damn it, Lao Xie, can't you stand down there? You have to stand with us, it makes me look short."

    ¡°You¡¯re damn short to begin with!!¡±

    Although Xie Wenbin said this, he still jumped off the sandbag and stood below.

    In this way, the two of them can look at each other at eye level.

    Bai Yaowen nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Lao Xie, you should take care of my self-esteem, Lao Bai."

    With that said, he pointed to the woods ahead and said: "How about"?¡¤Request the artillery of the Fourth Army to cover it with artillery and directly deal with the Japanese scouts inside?  "

    "Forget it, even though people say so, you can't just use an artillery regiment to serve as a few Jaap scouts."

    Xie Wenbin said, "Ignore them, anyway, if the little devil wants to pass, he has to pass through the camps of our two regiments.

    "If they don't fight through our position, they will have to take a detour."

    The more detours are taken, the less time is left for them.  It's the Japanese who are worried now, not us.  "

    With that said, he jumped into the trench.

    At this time, Bai Yaowen hurried over, stood on the trench, cleared his throat and said: "Hey, Lao Xie, I want to ask you something."

    "What's going on?"

    Xie Wenbin said something strange, and raised his head to look at Bai Yaowen standing on the trench.

    Bai Yaowen grinned and said, "Hey, let me ask you, what do you think when you look up at me now?"

    "You are a fucking fool."

    Hearing this, Xie Wenbin laughed and cursed, and pulled Bai Yaowen down from the trench.

    At this time, on their defensive position, the soldiers had begun to move the ammunition from the rear to the cat's ear hole in the front.

    On their positions, most of them are weapons and equipment of the Japanese army.

    "Such as the 38-type Gai'er, the Type 92 heavy machine gun, the crooked light machine gun, and the 37mm flat-fire cannon equipped by the Japanese army can all be seen on their positions.

    "Compared to those guerrillas, the equipment of these soldiers is definitely luxurious.

    Many of the guerrillas who assisted them in fighting even used red tassel guns.

    Wang Chonggu, captain of the county brigade on the flank of the position, has received a commitment from their brigade commander Wu Xinchuan.

    As soon as this battle is over, some of the equipment captured by the little devils will be distributed to them.

    Wang Chonggu made a guarantee at that time that he would complete the task of blocking the Japanese army.

    At three o'clock in the afternoon, the resting Japanese troops began to regroup and advance towards the positions where the two regiments of the 118th Brigade were located.

    I wish everyone a happy new year and all the best.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
