Bright Sword: Leading the Special Operations Squadron to Fight the Japs

Chapter 452 Battle Plan No. 1

In the evening, Zhao Gang walked into the military fortress, exhausted, and sat down on a stool.

"The wind in Shanxi is really harmful. I just went out for a walk and I felt like my whole body was wrinkled!"

"Oh, Lao Zhao, when you first came to the Independent Column, I said you were a pale-faced scholar. I didn't expect it to be true. Hahaha!"

Zhao Gang rolled his eyes at Li Yunlong and rubbed his face casually.

"Stop talking nonsense. I'm used to living in Yunnan. It rains a lot there. It feels like I'm soaking in a pool of water! Let's get back to the point. How are you guys preparing? Did you find some troops ready to march along the way?"

Li Yunlong and Wang Meng put away the playful smiles on their faces and walked to the map.

"Old Zhao, today Minister Li from the intelligence department reported to me their analysis. They initially determined that the Japanese would advance from Datong from north to south. My opinion and that of Old Li is to take the initiative to attack Datong!"

Zhao Gang walked to the map with a serious expression, looked at Datong, which was just 200 kilometers north of Yuanping, and nodded.

"This is still a risky move, but considering Zhang Dabiao's style of daring to fight tough battles, there shouldn't be any problem! I agree!"

Li Yunlong slammed the teacup in his hand onto the table.

"Okay, since everyone has no objection, then it's settled!"

Li Yunlong paused and waved to the radio operator.

"I order Zhang Dabiao's Second Armored Division to act as the vanguard and immediately march northward from Yuanping to attack Taiyuan! Ignore the sporadic resistance along the way and attack with all your might!

Ding Wei's Fourth Armored Division will move from Taiyuan to Datong immediately. Let me be frank with you. Whoever reaches Datong first will be the main attacker!"

The radio operator was stunned and looked embarrassed.

"Commander, do you want to remember this sentence?"

Zhao Gang quickly waved his hands, signaling the radio operator to ignore it.

But Li Yunlong can't do that.

"Old Zhao, you have to remember this. You must remember this! If they don't remember this, how will they know my determination? Remember this. Remember this in great detail!"

"Okay, okay, okay! You can do whatever you want, Old Li!"

"Continue recording. The rest of the armored divisions, wherever they are now, hand over the local garrisons to the armed police forces and move out immediately to attack to the north!"

"Yes!"

After giving the order, Li Yunlong breathed a sigh of relief, sat on the chair, and lit a cigarette comfortably.

"Old Zhao, this family will be handed over to you from now on! Chief of Staff Wang and I are going to go up and take a look! This battle is related to whether we can get out of Shanxi!"

Wang Meng is not someone who can sit idle.

"That's right, Lao Zhao! If we can capture Datong this time, we can drive the Mongolian devils back. Then, whether we go straight to Beijing or the Northeast, the initiative will be in our hands!"

"Okay, stop talking. You just want me to stay in Pingshun to look after the family, right? I admit it! I'll tell you why you asked me to be in charge of the armed police force. Now I see that the armed police force is there to guard the territory, and so is Zhao Gang!"

Li Yunlong and Wang Meng smiled at each other. They would rather die than let their friend die. As long as the two of them could have fun on the front line, it would be enough.

"Old Zhao, let's try to make this a quick victory!"

"That's right. I'll bring you some Mongolian roasted whole lamb when the time comes!"

"Come on! I don't expect any roasted whole lamb from you. As long as you can be obedient and come back safely, I will be very grateful!"

"Hey, then we're ready to go!"

Zhao Gang raised his hands helplessly and began to organize the national telegram he was going to publish the next day.

At this time, at the North China Front Army Headquarters, General Okamura Yasuji was sitting at his desk holding Operation Plan No. 1, making the final confirmation.

In order to keep it secret, this battle plan was drawn up by the General Staff Headquarters in the mainland, and then delivered to Ningji Okamura by a special person and plane.

When Okamura Neiji looked at the Operation No. 1 plan made by the top students of the Army University, he had an indescribable feeling.

Okamura Neiji covered his head in pain. Operation Plan No. 1 actually specified the time when each plane would arrive at each airport! The formation of each tank!

"The plan made by this group of elites of the empire is perfect. It is so perfect that there cannot be any mistakes in any link. Otherwise, the whole chain will be broken, and the so-called plan will be interrupted and fail!"

The situation on the battlefield changes rapidly, and he absolutely cannot accept these precise, machine-like combat plans!

"Then take this plan back and ask them to give me at least two days of maneuvering time when the troops are assembled. I can't ask hundreds of thousands of troops to enter the battlefield on the same day!"

However, he fully agreed with the overall operational concept of Plan No. 1: concentrate superior forces and break through at a single point!

The era when a few Japanese devils could control a county town by holding up the aunt flag is over!

The era when a squadron of Japanese soldiers could defeat a Chinese regiment is now over!

They must concentrate their superior forces to be absolutely sure of defeating the Independent Column!

"Order the 30th Army in Changchun to set off immediately and reach Datong within five days! Also, where are our 3rd and 4th Armored Divisions?"

"Report! They have arrived in Zhangjiakou and are undergoing adaptive training!"

"Very good! Order them to hide during the day and move at night, gradually taking trains to Datong!"

"Hayi!"

Okamura Neiji didn't dare to pin his hopes of changing the battle plan on those nerds, he had to make arrangements in advance.

Because he had a vague feeling that the independent column would not wait until he was fully assembled before openly fighting him in a fair duel between warriors.

Obviously, Li Yunlong is not that kind of person.

As soon as Okamura Neiji's chief of staff walked out of the door, he ran into Kazutaka Chiji from the Confidential Section 2.

"Mr. Chief of Staff, may I ask if Operation Plan No. 1 requires our Confidential Section 2 to formulate it in detail?"

"No need! To keep it secret, this plan will be in the charge of the General Staff Headquarters on the main island. You can just take a break. I will notify you when it is time to carry it out!"

After the Chief of Staff of the North China Front Army finished speaking, he hurried to the Front Army's guesthouse and personally met with the officer from the General Staff Headquarters who delivered the combat plan.

He and Ying Zhiji walked back to the Confidential Section 2 dejectedly, sighed helplessly, and then sat heavily on the chair.

He took out a pen and wrote the four words "General Staff Headquarters" on the paper without any purpose and completely relying on his own consciousness.

Although it was an unintentional act, it was seen by Guan Gu Shenqi who had been paying attention to him.

He walked to the compartment with Ying Zhier holding a cup of West Lake Longjing tea and put it on the table.

Guan Gu Shenqi is now a close confidant of Ying Zhier, so of course he has the right to enter his compartment at will.

"Section Chief, is there something bothering you?"
