At the end of August, the second batch of twenty 155 mm howitzers were successfully removed from the factory and delivered to the artillery brigade for use. Seeing that there were twenty more giant cannons, the artillery brigade commander Wang Daquan was happy for a while. When he met everyone, he looked smiling, which made the officers and soldiers of the artillery brigade inexplicable and speculated that what was wrong with the brigade commander? Did he pick up hundreds of oceans on the street?

At this time, a month of training for recruits was over, and the recruits were all assigned to various brigades, regiments and other troops. Zhang Yunfei's troops reached a huge number of 100,000.

However, the army's new recruits accounted for the vast majority, with only one-tenth of the veterans, and the veterans also upgraded one after another. The former big head soldiers are now squad leaders, and the former squad leaders have been upgraded to platoon leaders.

To be honest, Zhang Yunfei doesn’t have much confidence in his combat effectiveness, not baptized by war, artillery fire and blood.

Although Zhang Yunfei's army training has a strict and scientific training outline and the soldiers are usually very hard-working, one or two months ago, these recruits were still students, workers, hawkers, and even most of them were farmers who had just put down their hoes.

Therefore, Zhang Yunfei had plans to conduct a practical exercise, and the target of the exercise was of course the Japanese devils from Shanxi.

The Japanese army stationed in Shanxi is currently the 14th Regiment and the 46th Division that entered Shanxi from Zhengtai Road at the end of July. The Japanese 46th Division was newly formed in the first half of this year. It is a Type B division with less than 20,000 people.

The entire Shanxi Japanese soldiers had less than 50,000 troops. Since Zhang Yunfei restored Taiyuan and controlled the North Gate of Shanxi, the Japanese soldiers had basically shrunk in several big cities, mainly just defense and sweeping.

As the special forces scattered outside sent back information, Zhang Yunfei knew the Japanese troops deployment and number clearly.

This time, Zhang Yunfei was preparing to pull his troops south to attack Shuozhou, and to find the Japanese to train troops.

Zhang Yunfei was preparing to send three infantry brigades of the 136th Division to participate in this training. The artillery brigade also sent a regiment of artillery, carrying forty newly equipped 155 mm howitzers to the front line to try their power.

Of course, in order to prevent Japanese aircraft bombing, Zhang Yunfei would also send a battalion of the anti-aircraft artillery regiment to accompany him. At present, the anti-aircraft artillery regiment has developed to five anti-aircraft artillery battalions, each with more than 600 people, equipped with 36 two-unit 30 mm anti-aircraft artillery.

Five anti-aircraft artillery battalions, one stationed in Huanglongxia Industrial Zone, the other stationed in Xinan County, and the other three stationed around Datong. The anti-aircraft artillery battalion that accompanied this time was the fifth battalion, one of the three anti-aircraft artillery battalions stationed in Datong.

Since Zhang Yunfei recovered Datong, the Japanese Air Force in Taiyuan has not been idle in the past two months. They have sent several waves of planes to investigate around Datong. However, every time they are either shot down by the anti-aircraft artillery soldiers with advanced performance or driven away by the soldiers with machine guns.

So later, the Japanese were getting lazy to visit Datong. In the past half month, I had never seen the shadow of the Japanese plane.

During this training, the infantry brigade basically uses walking, which can train the soldiers' ability to march in the field. Zhang Yunfei specially allocated eighty large trucks, including forty to traction howitzers and the other forty can be used to transport artillery shells.

The thirty-six two-unit thirty-mm anti-aircraft guns in the anti-aircraft artillery battalion mainly use horses to drag forward. After all, the two-unit thirty-mm anti-aircraft guns weigh only a few hundred kilograms, and two war horses can easily drag.

After several days of preparation and unit assembly, at 7 a.m. on September 1, the first regiment of the First Infantry Brigade, the vanguard, left Datong City first and began to move south along the highway.

The subsequent large troops will follow up one after another, and the Artillery Regiment and Anti-Air Battalion will leave the city as the last troops. This time, Zhang Yunfei personally participated in the actual combat drills of the troops.

Because it was a practical exercise by the troops, Zhang Yunfei did not urge the troops to march quickly, but adopted a normal speed. It was not until the evening that he reached hushuhaige County, which was dozens of kilometers away from Datong.

hushuhaige County is the southern gate of Datong. Currently, hushuhaige County is the county controlled by Zhang Yunfei, with a regiment of troops stationed.

During today's march, the soldiers' overall performance was quite normal and there were no major situations, but there were still many minor situations. There was a soldier whose rifle actually fired during the march, but fortunately he did not hurt other comrades.

After the large army camped in Hushuhaige County for one night, the troops set off early the next morning, and the first regiment of the First Infantry Brigade was the vanguard and set off first.

The next day, Zhang Yunfei ordered the troops to speed up the march. At 5 pm, the vanguard troops reached the outskirts of Shanyang County.

Shanyang County is an occupied area, and the one stationed in Shanyang County is the Asada United team of the little ghost.

In order to prevent the Eighth Route Army from going south and attacking, the Japanese built several strongholds outside Shanyang County. Each stronghold was stationed with an infantry team and sixty or seventy Japanese.

Three or four kilometers outside Shanyang County, there is a Japanese stronghold responsible for the guards. As usual, the Japanese around the stronghold were patrolling back and forth casually. On the observation post of the stronghold more than ten meters high, several Japanese Japanese who were responsible for the guards were also listless.

Since more than a month ago, after the Eighth Route Army occupied the northern hushuhaige County, the Asada United team stationed in Shanyang County was also worried that the Eighth Route Army would take advantage of the victory and attack Shanyang County.

But after a month, the Eighth Route Army in the north showed no sign of going south. The Asada United team stationed in Shanyang County gradually believed that the Eighth Route Army would not go south for the time being.

The Japanese who were standing guard usually handled the matter, and today they were the same. They had been on duty for almost a day and had been safe all the time. The Japanese thought that it seemed that today was as usual, and it was impossible for the Eighth Route Army to appear.

Suddenly, a Japanese man looked ahead accidentally, and suddenly he was stunned. He was motionless, his mouth was wide open, and the cigarette in his mouth fell to the ground without any reaction.
