Yoshino Yuzuka, who received the order, felt much more at ease.

In this way, he would have six divisions and two brigades in his hands.

He also has a brigade in Datong.

There is also a brigade who set out from Fengzhen to support Datong.

In this way, the total strength of his First Army almost reached seven divisions.

With tens of thousands of Imperial Army, such forces should be fine to annihilate the opponent's troops.

From a time perspective, it takes three days for the Fifth Division and the Ninth Division to be reinforced by Zhangjiakou.

Originally, it took less than three days to reinforce Datong from Zhangjiakou, but suddenly mobilizing the forces of the two divisions required a lot of logistics work.

It will take three days to arrive at the fastest time.

The 14th and 20th Divisions who came from Shijiazhuang had to come from the Zhengtai Railway and then head north after arriving in Yangqu.

So it will take longer.

Under normal circumstances, it takes about seven days to reach the Datong area.

The Honma brigade who came from Suiyuan Jining went south along the Pingsui Railway. The speed was relatively fast, but it took about two days.

In this case, Datong will still be very dangerous.

Even, it will be occupied by the other party.

Yoshio Yuzuka looked at the map worriedly, thinking about how to adjust his deployment.

According to the telegram from Sakatanoyoshi, the opponent's troops had already tore a huge gap in the defensive positions outside Datong, and the troops arrived at Datong for only a few hours at most.

Even now, the opponent's troops may have begun to launch an attack on Datong.

Datong can no longer be preserved.

Yoshio Yuzuka sighed heavily, the 15th Brigade was finished.

He suddenly raised his head and his eyes flashed twice: "Order, the 7th Division stationed in Ningwu, immediately advance northward and assemble in the Shanyin area.

The 23rd Division, which was stationed in Pingyao, immediately headed north and arranged its troops in the Pinglu area.

The 48th Brigade was ordered to set up defense lines outside Taiyuan to prevent other Eighth Route Army troops from attacking Taiyuan.

Order Honma's brigade to enter Fengzhen as quickly as possible.

After arriving in Yanggao, the Fifth Division immediately advanced towards Datong and prepared to surround the opponent's troops.

After arriving at Yangyuan, the Ninth Division was ordered to advance towards Datong and prepare to encircle.

Order the 14th Division: the 20th Division, after arriving in Taiyuan, go north immediately.

The 14th Division assembled in the Shenchi area.

The 20th Division gathered in Xinkou area.”

Yoshio Yuzuka planned to use four divisions and two brigades to encircle this mysterious unit.

There are four divisions and two brigades, namely the Fifth Division, the Seventh Division, the Ninth Division, the Twenty-third Division, the Suzuki Brigade, and the Honma Brigade.

In addition, there is a brigade that has now arrived in Dafeng Town.

In this way, the total Japanese army encircled this mysterious unit reached 110,000.

Although the other party has planes and tanks, their total strength is estimated to be around 50,000.

If he counts this way, he will have a great chance of winning.

In order to prevent the attacks of other Eighth Route Army units, he also placed the 14th Division in Shenchi and the 20th Division in Xinkou.

The key to the question now is whether these troops can reach the scheduled location as fast as possible.

News of the North China dispatched troops reinforcing troops soon reached the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army in Shanxi.

However, the message was not a comrade from the underground party in North China, but a person who was unexpected by Li Leidi, Minglou.

Isn't he in Shanghai?

How could he know so clearly about the situation of the North China Expeditionary Force?

This is a real master!

Li Lei sighed, with Minglou here, and felt that the Japanese army was in front of him and he was completely out of clothes.

Of course, this sounds disgusting.

The Japanese army does not wear clothes, but it is not as good-looking as the women in the island country.

Alas, I, my computer hard drive, I don’t know who is cheaper.

According to Minglou, in order to eliminate his temporary regiment, the Japanese army mobilized four divisions and a brigade from other places to cooperate with Yoshio Yuzuka's First Army.

Among them, there are two divisions in Zhangjiakou, two divisions in Shijiazhuang, and one brigade in Jining.

This is the latest information. Now these Japanese divisions and brigades should be preparing and will set off soon.

Li Lei had already guessed that the Japanese army would increase its troops, but he didn't expect that the Japanese army would send so many troops to deal with him.

It seems that the Japanese army is anxious.

The leader attached great importance to this news and asked Li Lei's temporary regiment whether he could defeat the Japanese troops in a row.

According to the chief's prediction, although the Japanese army dispatched a lot of troops, due to distance issues, these troops would not arrive in Datong at the same time.

This provided conditions for their troops to concentrate superior forces and defeat the Japanese army one by one.

But the problem is that the time is very short.

The time to annihilate each Japanese army will not exceed two days.

Annihilated a Japanese division in two days...

This difficulty is not very large.

In addition to the temporary regiment, there are about 100,000 troops that can be mobilized by the headquarters.

As for their current equipment, there is no big problem for them to fight against the two divisions of the Japanese army.

In this case, the temporary regiment will annihilate the Japanese army and share the pressure.

After analyzing the situation, the chief ordered that the goal of all troops' battle this time would no longer be to seize big cities, but to annihilate the Japanese army's live forces.

If these forces of the Japanese army can be wiped out, there will be no problem in regaining Shanxi.

It also provides conditions for the next step of troops entering North China.

Now the total force of the Japanese dispatched troops in the entire North China is about fifteen divisions and 250,000 troops.

There are also 200,000 Imperial Army.

If these six divisions and two brigades of the Japanese army can be wiped out this time, the entire Japanese North China Expeditionary Army will be destroyed.

By then, it is entirely possible that one will rise and the other will fall, and sweep across North China.

The leader ordered to send 30,000 people to attack the Shenchi, and immediately occupy a favorable strategic position while the Japanese army is now empty.

Forty thousand people attacked Yanmen Pass and stopped the Japanese troops who went north from Taiyuan to reinforce.

Another 30,000 people are the general reserve team.

Support other troops at any time.

Li Lei's temporary regiment was responsible for annihilation of the Japanese troops coming from Zhangjiakou and Jining.

It is necessary to annihilate the Japanese Fifth Division, the Ninth Division and Honma Brigade within seven days.

Seven days?

Li Lei frowned and passed the battlefield situation from beginning to end.

Time is very tight.

Now his temporary regiment can attack Datong by taking it, but according to Li Lei's expectation, it will take almost a day.

If the head's time requirements are required by the head, it will take too much time in Datong.

Li Yunlong looked at the map and suggested: "If we annihilate two Japanese divisions and one brigade within seven days, then our strategy of changing our tactics.

I don’t think the battle against the city is advisable.”

Chu Yunfei nodded: "If you want to eliminate the Japanese army's vital forces, the best way is to fight in the wild.

If we continue to fight against Datong, then when the Japanese troops are at the city, we will only be passive.

My suggestion is to give up Datong, draw out the troops, and prepare for a decisive battle with the Japanese army in the field."

Li Lei nodded.

It's indeed.

"Order, the first battalion immediately advances northward, quickly enters south of Fengzhen, and prepares to annihilate the Japanese Honma brigade from Jining.

The order was ordered to advance towards Yanggao immediately.
To be continued...
