    When the troops from the Zhuozi direction captured their battalion, the troops from the Jining direction had also arrived at Cobul Town in Chayou Middle Banner.

    Although this is an administrative unit at the banner and county level, due to the vast area and sparse population, there are not many people at all. Therefore, the Little Devils do not station troops here, but King De's people are here to govern this place.

    Although King De had a Mongolian division, its strength was limited. Therefore, Cobol's garrison was very small. There was only a private soldier under the local flag owner, with a full force of only 300 people.

    When Gu Mingtang personally appeared outside the city of Cobol with more than 5,000 people, the Mongolian flag owner simply opened the door and surrendered. The whole process took only 20 minutes and was quite smooth.

    After capturing Cobol, the next target of Gu Mingtang's troops was Wulanhua Town, Siziwang Banner, 120 kilometers away. As long as it was captured there, the road for the Japanese and puppet troops to escape north would be blocked.

    On the night of June 10, Gu Mingtang¡¯s troops arrived in Wulanhua Town!

    Since Wulanhua Town is the only way from Guisui to the Xilin Gol Grassland, both the Japanese and the German king attach great importance to it, and the garrison is naturally not comparable to that of Cobul.

    At this time, there were more than 300 Japanese troops and more than 800 puppet troops stationed in Wulanhua Town, all of them cavalry.

    When the battle started, these Japanese and puppet troops immediately went into battle to fight back!

    But there is no city wall in Wulanhua Town, but roadblocks and simple fortifications have been set up by the little devils at the main intersections entering and exiting the town. Such fortifications can deal with ordinary petty thieves, and cannot even stop larger horse bandits.  Live, let alone Li Guoyao's elite cavalry.

    The battle started at eight o'clock in the evening, and the troops entered the city at half past eight, and the two sides started fighting in the streets.

    At half past nine, the Japanese army was basically wiped out, some of the puppet troops were killed, and the rest all surrendered.

    Gu Mingtang left a battalion of troops to clean the battlefield and maintain order in the city. The remaining troops rushed to the next target - Wuchuan without stopping.

    "Compared to the sparse Wulanhua, Wuchuan, known as an important town in the Northern Wei Dynasty, is a hard bone.

    ¡°And now that the traces of the troops have been exposed, the Japanese army will inevitably strengthen the protection of Wuchuan.

    However, when Gu Mingtang and others arrived in Wuchuan, they were surprised to find that the entire Wuchuan was deserted. Not only did a regiment of garrison disappear, but also more than 20,000 ordinary people in the city disappeared.

    But when they were about to go south to Guisui via the highway across Daqing Mountain, they were ambushed by the Japanese and puppet troops halfway.

    Although the troops noticed it earlier and did not suffer much losses, they later discovered that the Japanese and puppet troops had built a large number of blocking positions on the only way for the troops to go south, and most of these positions were built in dangerous locations that were easy to defend and difficult to attack.  On the ground, if we attack by force, even if we put in the thousands of people we have, it may be difficult to defeat the Japanese and puppet troops in front of them.

    ¡°Obviously, the little devils have realized that it is impossible for an isolated city in Wuchuan to stop the national army. Rather than being eventually surrounded and annihilated, it is better to withdraw them all to the mountains.

    Anyway, the goal of Li Guoyao's command is to return to Suizhou. As long as this transportation artery is held, the national army's strategic intentions will be completely bankrupt.

    When the situation on the northern line was reported back to Sumushan, Li Guoyao didn't care at all. It was good to be able to attack Guisui from the north and the south, but it didn't matter if the attack failed.

    Anyway, there are not many Japanese and puppet troops in Guisui City at this time, especially when most of the puppet troops have defected to the Jiujiu Army. Even if there is only a large army from Zhuo Zi's direction, Guisui can be easily captured.

    As for the troops on the northern front, their main role is not to siege the city. On the one hand, it is to prevent the Japanese and puppet troops from escaping north, and on the other hand, it is to prevent troops from the Xilin Gol direction from reinforcing and returning to Sui.

    Since the Japs guarded the road going south, Li Guoyao asked Gu Mingtang and others to block the mountain pass. As long as the devil didn't flee north, everything would be fine.

    The Japanese army obviously did not expect that Li Guoyao's troops would react like this, and everyone was immediately confused.

    However, when news came from the direction of Yulin that they had been violently attacked by the main force of the national army, the senior Japanese and puppet army officials in Guisui City panicked, only to realize that the troops on the northern front were only one of their forces, and it did not seem to be the main direction of attack.  .

    Soon Major General Okazaki, the commander of the Japanese garrison stationed in Guisui, analyzed the forces at hand and believed that the current strength could only barely hold the city, but it was still too weak to defeat the Chinese army facing them. After thinking over and over again, he finally decided  Ask for help in the direction of Zhangjiakou.

    When the telegram for help from the Guisui garrison was sent to Zhangjiakou, Ganpa Chongtaro was already aware of the danger.?Breath.

    Having fought against Li Guoyao's troops many times, Ganpa Jutaro was not as optimistic as Okazaki, the returning general. He knew very well that Li Guoyao's troops would either not take action, or if they did, they would eat meat and drink blood.

    And now that Baotou and Guisui are under attack at the same time, the intention of the supporter is obviously not just to rob and retreat, but to completely drive the Imperial Japanese Army out of Suiyuan.

    In view of this, Ganpa Chongtaro immediately reported the situation to Peking and asked for instructions to transfer the garrison in the direction of Datong to Guisui.

    However, considering that Datong is also under the threat of Li Guoyao's troops, the army can temporarily abandon Shanyin, Yingxian, Zuoyun Youyu and other places. However, due to the importance of this matter, he, a lieutenant general commander, does not have the right to make a decision.  A person like Okamura Neiji who is in charge of the front army can do this.

    After receiving the request from Kampa Jutaro, Okamura Neiji immediately analyzed the current situation again, and then recognized Kampa Jutaro's judgment.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ??????????? Are indeed trying to recover Suiyuan, and judging from the current situation, their success rate is very high.

    Fortunately, the parachute brigade has successfully parachuted into Baotou. Although there were many casualties, only 4,000 of the 6,000 troops were able to actually land in Baotou City. Part of the remaining 2,000 floated outside the city, and the other part was lost during the landing.  He was killed by the Chinese army.

    But even so, the addition of more than 4,000 fresh troops still blocked the Chinese army's offensive outside Baotou City.

    You must know that those paratroopers have average professional skills, but they are all army elites selected from the entire army, and their weapons and equipment are very sophisticated. Everyone has body armor and submachine guns, and they are armed to the teeth.

    The combat effectiveness displayed by the 4,000-man army far exceeded that of an ordinary three-unit field division. The 35th Army fought bloody battles with it for several hours. The troops suffered heavy casualties and the offensive was frustrated.

    The crisis in the direction of Baotou has been relieved for the time being. If Guisui can be defended now, then the plan of supporting/that person to regain Suiyuan will be ruined.

    But Okamura Neiji still feels uneasy if he only mobilizes reinforcements from Datong. After all, Datong is now close to Li Guoyao's troops. Once they are given a plan, Okamura Neiji believes that Li Guoyao will never miss the opportunity to capture Datong.  Opportunity.

    After much thought, Okamura Neiji finally agreed to Ganpa Jutaro's reinforcement plan, but he did not agree to abandon Yingxian, Sanin and other places. Instead, while mobilizing the Datong garrison to go north, he ordered the new division of the 26th Division to  The regiment commander Otsuka Kikujiro immediately armed the expatriates in Datong City, and at the same time concentrated all troops from Shanyin, Yingxian, Lingqiu, Guangling, Hunyuan, Huairen, Shuozhou and other places to Datong.

    And ordered the defenders in Xinkou, Ningwu and other places along the inner Great Wall to immediately go north to fill the gaps in Shanyin, Yingxian and other places.

    Even so, Okamura Neiji still felt that it was not enough. After thinking for a while, he made another decision and ordered the 27th Division of Baoding to immediately go north to attack Li Guoyao's troops on the Yangyuan front line, hoping that they could regain Yangyuan and Tianzhen.  and Yanggao San County, opening up the transportation line from Zhangjiakou to Datong.

    In view of the serious shortage of troops in Zhangjiakou's garrison, Okamura Neiji also decided to transfer the two newly arrived independent garrison brigades to Zhangjiakou to strengthen Zhangjiakou's garrison.

    In addition, Okamura Neiji also ordered the 35th Division stationed in Kaifeng to move northward from now on. All defenders in various places will shrink their forces and actively prepare for war!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
