"But the 8th Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Association Army was originally stationed on the front line of Yangquan, why is it assigned to the 69th Division?"

"It's very simple, because the security tasks of your 69th Division are too heavy." Noyuichiro said in a deep voice, "In order to reduce your defense tasks and allow your 69th Division to maintain sufficient field combat capabilities, your Excellency the General I will also place the 8th Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Association Army under the battle order of your 69th Division."

"Hayi!" Inoue Zhenwei snapped to attention and said solemnly, "I will never let down the expectations of Your Excellency, General."

While speaking, Cai Xiongfei, the brigade commander of the 6th Mixed Brigade of the Puppet Army, and Wei Jie, the brigade commander of the 8th Mixed Brigade, walked in.

After introducing each other, Okamoto smiled and said to Inoue Zhenwei: "Inoue-kun, Cai Sang has a big gift for you."

After finishing speaking, Kazuo Okamoto turned his head to Cai Xiongfei and said, "Cai Sang, now you can share your great gift."

After listening to the translation, Cai Xiongfei respectfully responded yes, and said: "Your Excellency, Commander Noyou, and General Inoue, my gift is the 358st Battalion of the 1th Regiment of the Jinsui Army."

"The 358st Battalion of the 1th Regiment of the Jinsui Army?" Inoue Sadao said, "What do you mean?"

Cai Xiongfei explained: "General Inoue doesn't know something. I used to be the deputy commander of the major general of the 68th Division of the Jinsui Army, so I know many officers in the Jinsui Army."

"Qian Bojun, the battalion commander of the 358st Battalion of the 1th Regiment of the Jinsui Army, happened to be my old acquaintance."

"About a week ago, we met in Lijia Town. I thought there would be a fierce battle between the two armies, but Qian Bojun strictly ordered his subordinates not to shoot."

"Afterwards, I sent someone to secretly contact Qian Bojun."

"Qian Bojun showed his willingness to switch to the Nanjing Reform Government."

"However, he offered a relatively high price. He hoped that his troops could be reorganized into a mixed brigade, with him serving as the brigade commander."

"Nani?" Inoue Zhenwei frowned, "A battalion commander wants to be brigade commander? It's like a lion!"

Kazuo Okamoto laughed, and said: "Mr. Inoue, what you said is wrong, not to mention that the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army was originally a reinforced regiment, and the 1st Battalion of Qian Bojun was originally equivalent to a regiment of the Chinese Army. , according to the practice of being promoted to a higher level after switching to the reform government, the promotion to major general and brigade commander is also reasonable."

"What's more, the effectiveness of Qian Bojun's troops is not just the strength of a battalion."

"Hayi!" Inoue Zhenwei paused and said, "The betrayal of Qian Bojun's troops gave the imperial army a good opportunity to deal with the 358th regiment of the Jinsui Army!"

"Yo Xi." Kazuo Okamoto nodded happily, and said, "Then, Inoue-kun, Cai Sang and Wei Sang, the next thing will be left to you."

After a pause, Kazuo Okamoto went on to say: "I hope that after a while, the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army will no longer exist in Northwest Shanxi!"

"Hayi!" Inoue Zhenwei gave a heavy pause.

Wei Jie and Cai Xiongfei also snapped their feet to attention.

Chapter 389 Setting the Trap

In the dead of night, everything is silent.

Wang Yan took Sun Ming to the foot of the cliff behind Zhaojiayu.

Looking at the 50-meter-high cliff in front of him, Wang Yan asked: "Sun Ming, if you were Kazuki Yamamoto, where would you choose to climb from?"

Sun Ming said: "It goes without saying, it must be the shortest point."

Wang Yan said: "But the problem is, they all look about the same height here."

Sun Ming said: "Then choose the point closest to Zhaojiayu, so that you can launch an attack directly."

"I think so too." Wang Yan nodded and said again, "But the cliff closest to Zhaojiayu is hard rock, so it's not easy to design traps."

Sun Ming said: "The key depends on what kind of trap you want."

"I almost forgot, you are an expert in making traps." Wang Yan smiled and asked again, "Then what do you think is the most lethal trap designed here?"

Sun Ming said: "The most lethal trap, of course, is to blow up the cliff directly. If the cliff is really blown down, the rocks and earth that fall down are enough to bury the Yamamoto secret service team under the cliff alive!"

Wang Yan said: "But how much explosives do you need to blow up such a large cliff?"

"Then blow up the cliff over there." Sun Ming stretched out his hand and pointed to the front, "This side is hard granite, and it takes a lot of explosives to blow it down, but the cliff in front is weathered sandstone, which can be easily blown up." collapse."

Wang Yan narrowed his eyes and said, "But the problem is, devils won't go there."

"Then think of a way to drive them over." Sun Ming said, "Let's set up two clear sentries here. In order not to disturb the sentries on the cliff, the Yamamoto special team will most likely choose the cliff in front!"

"Well, that's a good idea." Wang Yan immediately thought of Zhu Ziming.

If Zhu Ziming had really rebelled, he would definitely report to Kazuki Yamamoto about the addition of double hills on the back cliff, so it is a high probability that Kazuki Yamamoto chose to climb the cliff not far in front.

Wang Yan continued: "However, the devil's special forces probably won't gather together. If there is no accident, the collapsed cliff should be able to bury one-third alive! How should the devil deal with the remaining two-thirds? "

The Yamamoto Special Forces has three battle teams. Under normal circumstances, there will only be one battle team when climbing, and the other two battle teams, one is preparing and the other is in charge of vigilance.

Therefore, the rocks and earth that collapsed buried at most one combat group alive.

Sun Ming pondered: "Then we can only bury landmines and blow them up to death!"

"Explode with mines?" Wang Yan asked, "How many mines would it cost? Bury the entire back mountain?"

"If the devil's special forces really came from the back mountain, no matter how many mines they planted, it would be worth it." Sun Ming said, "Besides, there is no need to bury the whole back mountain, as long as the devils may hide in the area."

"It's reasonable." Wang Yan said, "Let's assume that if I were Kazuki Yamamoto, the cliff suddenly collapsed when the team members were climbing, and buried one-third of the special forces team members alive."

"So at this time, my first reaction must be to retreat."

"Retreat to a safe distance first, how far is safe."

"At least it must not be threatened by the collapsed rock."

"The height of this cliff is about 50 meters, so the effective threat distance of the collapsed rocks must be at least 50 meters. To be on the safe side, 100 meters should be about the same."

"We planted mines on the mountain road at a distance of 50 meters to 100 meters."

"It's not necessary to bury the entire valley, just bury mines on the mountain road and both sides."

"After the baptism of this wave of minefields, it is estimated that only one-third of the devil's special forces are left, and there is no real threat to our regiment headquarters."

"But the problem is, I don't even want to let a devil go."

"It's fine if the devil's special forces don't come. If they come, none of them will go back alive."

"So the remaining one-third of the ghost special forces must also be killed, and none of them are allowed to go away."

"This is difficult." Sun Ming shook his head and said, "The cliff collapsed, and the minefields exploded. By then, the few remaining devils will definitely scatter and flee into the mountains. What else can they do?"

Wang Yan groaned silently, but his eyes shot back and forth in the valley.

A few seconds later, Wang Yan's gaze suddenly stopped on a lone peak in front of him.

Sun Ming's eyes also fell on the isolated peak, and he saw that the isolated peak had a very good view, and the cliffs here and the valley below the cliff were all under the surveillance of the isolated peak.
