Two days later, Shuozhou City was cleaned up by tens of thousands of soldiers. Tens of thousands of corpses of ordinary people killed by the Japanese were buried. The burned houses were cleaned up. After the reconstruction, the streets were swept by the soldiers, and they looked clean and neat.

The people in Shuozhou City gradually recovered their anger and began to walk out of the house in groups of three or three, start doing things, visiting the house, and those who do business also open the store and start doing business...

At this time, Zhang Yunfei was in the temporary command center in Shuozhou City, looking at the huge military map, with a solemn face, and was thinking carefully about the next step of the troops.

This time, tens of thousands of troops went south from Datong, reviving several county towns in a row, and annihilated thousands of Japanese devils, basically achieving the purpose of training troops.

But in yesterday's incident, before the inhumane Japanese retreat, they inhumanely killed tens of thousands of innocent people in Shuozhou City.

This incident made Zhang Yunfei hate the Japanese devils to the core and kept trying to find a way to retaliate against the Japanese devils. China emphasizes blood debt and blood payment.

Three days ago, an infantry brigade was annihilated by the cavalry regiment. More than a thousand Japanese Japanese could only collect some interest in advance. The principal that occupied the majority had not been collected from Japanese Japanese.

Two days ago, Zhang Yunfei sent a battalion of the First Infantry Brigade to secretly leave Shuozhou and investigate and advance towards Xinkou to find out the movements and deployment of the Japanese.

Just as Zhang Yunfei was looking at the map and thinking about countermeasures, the commander of the First Brigade Wang Haiyang excitedly pushed the door in. Wang Haiyang walked to Zhang Yunfei with a happy face and reported: "Teacher Commander, the Third Battalion responsible for the investigation has sent back the message. At present, there are no Japanese soldiers north of Xinkou. All Japanese soldiers have withdrawn from Xinkou. At present, two divisions have been deployed near Xinkou and a large number of defensive fortifications have been built. The purpose is very obvious, to defend our army from going south and protect Taiyuan."

Zhang Yunfei took the pencil on the table and drew a few large circles on the location of Xinkou. He turned to the correspondent and said, "Go and notify the Artillery Brigade King Daquan and ask him to come and see me quickly."

In less than five minutes.

Wang Daquan came to the command center with a little panting, obviously running over. At present, Wang Daquan respects Zhang Yunfei seventy and admires three points, especially after the artillery brigade equipped these forty large-caliber howitzers, his respect and admiration for Zhang Yunfei became stronger.

Wang Daquan walked to Zhang Yunfei with a smile, stood attentively before saying, "Teacher, please look for me."

"All collection, I'll give you a difficult task." After saying that, Zhang Yunfei walked to the map, pointed to the location of Xinkou with the pencil in his hand and said: "Here, the Japanese have stationed almost two divisions of troops and built a large number of fortifications. If we attack directly, the troops will definitely suffer great casualties. So, I'll give you a task, which is to use your cannons to bomb the Japanese there for me."

“Ensure the task is completed.”

"In addition, the rest of the troops will fully cooperate with your artillery brigade and let go of your hands and do not be stingy with artillery shells." Zhang Yunfei encouraged Wang Daquan again.

In the afternoon, the troops set out and headed towards Xinkou. There was only one infantry regiment left behind in Shuozhou.

Two days later, all the troops reached less than ten kilometers south of Xinkou. At this time, the Japanese soldiers stationed in Xinkou also discovered a large number of Eighth Route Army troops in the north.

At this time, Zhang Yunfei did not hide it from the Japanese. Except for the artillery brigade and the anti-aircraft artillery regiment, the rest of the troops were placed on the surface, with the purpose of letting the Japanese know that the Eighth Route Army's troops were preparing to attack Xinkou.

In this way, the Japanese will be forced to enter the defensive position. Zhang Yunfei used a telescope to observe the Japanese's defensive position carefully.

The Japanese defensive positions were built very scientifically and reasonably, stretching for more than ten kilometers and having a depth of two or three kilometers. A large number of bunkers and machine gun positions were built on the defensive positions.

If the Eighth Route Army really wants to attack, what is waiting for the Eighth Route Army will be densely filled with bullets. If the Eighth Route Army does not pay a heavy price, it will not be possible to break through the defense line.

With such a line of defense, there are tens of thousands of Japanese devils stationed. The Japanese devils are not far from Taiyuan and have sufficient supplies. Don’t worry about insufficient ammunition at all. Therefore, the Japanese devils have sufficient confidence to guard this place and turn it into the grave of the Eighth Route Army.

But whether this is the case depends on actual evidence.

When the Japanese all entered the defense line, staring nervously ahead, ready to prevent the Eighth Route Army from attacking at any time, Zhang Yunfei was commanding the troops to leisurely dig trenches and build fortifications under the Japanese's noses.

Moreover, the fortification was repaired for three days, and the Japanese were confused when they saw it. The Japanese kept wondering, why didn’t the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side attack? Instead, they were building defensive fortifications. Are we waiting for this to take the initiative to attack?

During these three days, the Japanese were unable to sleep well at night and were always worried that the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side would suddenly attack. Several Japanese commanders also gathered together and discussed it several times, but they had not yet discussed any results.

What exactly is the Eighth Route Army opposite doing?

When the Japanese were racking their brains these days and guessing what Zhang Yunfei's troops were doing, Zhang Yunfei was indeed not idle at all.

Tens of thousands of Eighth Route Army soldiers leisurely built fortifications under the Japanese's noses, which was just what Zhang Yunfei used to confuse the other party.

In fact, Zhang Yunfei's real killer is hidden behind. In the past few days, Zhang Yunfei quietly transported all the thousands of 155 mm howitzers in Datong stocked.

At present, the artillery brigade has tens of thousands of shells, and most of them are high-explosive bombs, so the Japanese will definitely be able to drink a pot of them.

In order to prevent the bombing artillery brigade of the Japanese Taiyuan, Zhang Yunfei drew another anti-aircraft artillery battalion. Currently, there are two anti-aircraft artillery battalions, which can completely defend the Japanese air force.

According to reliable information, there are only more than 70 aircraft at Taiyuan Airport, of which the majority are bombers, with more than 40 fighters and a little less, with only more than 20 fighters.

Zhang Yunfei prepared two anti-aircraft artillery battalions for them. As long as they dared to come, they would definitely ask them to go but not return. Now, the soldiers have a lot of combat experience, and both anti-aircraft artillery battalions have found the best location early and hidden them.

The 30-mm anti-aircraft cannons painted with camouflage are scattered in the woods, bushes, and even in thatched grass. The Japanese looked down from a height of thousands of meters, and it was impossible to see them.

At that time, we will definitely be able to catch the Japanese Air Force off guard.

So far, all Zhang Yunfei's strategic deployment has been completed. This time, Zhang Yunfei is preparing to take advantage of the cannon to hit the Japanese on the opposite side hard.

Because, at the beginning, Zhang Yunfei observed clearly that although the Japanese's position was very large, due to the hasty time, most of the construction was civil fortifications and few cement fortifications were built.

These civil fortifications could not withstand the shelling of 155 mm howitzers, so Zhang Yunfei ordered several infantry brigade soldiers to build fortifications in front of the Japanese, confusing them.

In fact, Zhang Yunfei used the past few days to complete the strategic deployment. Fortunately, the Japanese were stupid enough to see through Zhang Yunfei's strategic intentions at all.
Chapter completed!
