Wang Zeduan suddenly felt that the offense was much smoother.

Xu Hu, who was attacking from the south, also felt that the Japanese resistance seemed a little confused?

They all realized that something must have happened.

Sure enough, not long after, they all received news that the highest commander of the Japanese invaders, Taro Taro Katayama, was beaten to death.

"Who killed him?"

"Yang Yue."

"So fast?"

"yes……"

After a brief surprise, the Eighth Route Army continued to launch an attack.

The Japanese army began to retreat in an orderly manner and quickly moved closer to Taiyuan. However, it was an order from Yoshio Shinozuka.

After Taro Katayama died in battle, Yoshio Shinozuka decisively gave up Yangquan.

The result of not giving up is nothing more than vain sacrifice.

Yoshio Shinozuka felt that it would be better to save the remaining troops.

Because at this moment, he felt that there were gradually clouds above his head, and the situation was a bit dangerous.

Why did the Eighth Route Army fight to conquer Yangquan?

Is it necessary to block the external contacts of the Japanese army in Shanxi?

Could it be that the Eighth Route Army's appetite is so huge that it wants to destroy all the Japanese troops in Shanxi?

Although this idea is very absurd and illusory, as the commander of the Japanese First Army stationed in Shanxi, Yoshio Shinozuka had to be on guard.

What if the Eighth Route Army really wants to destroy 100,000 Japanese troops in one fell swoop?

How long has Yangquan held on?

Three days!

It was conquered in three days.

From this we infer that the Eighth Route Army's ability to attack must have been qualitatively improved.

If he thought the Eighth Route Army was really three-shot Eighth Route Army, one broken gun and three bullets, he would probably end up like Taro Katayama.

Of course he can't repeat the same mistakes.

In a very short time, Yoshio Shinozuka gave several orders in succession.

First, the 20th Division was ordered to immediately shrink its troops and always ensure contact with the 41st Division stationed in Linfen to avoid the retreat route being cut off.

Second, order the 41st Division stationed in Linfen to immediately shrink its forces to ensure contact with the 20th Division. If necessary, the 20th Division retreat will be carried out.

Third, order other troops along the Tongpu Line to abandon all the strongholds on non-transportation routes to ensure the safety of Tongpu Line. All strongholds that have nothing to do with Tongpu Line will be given up.

Fourth, ask the North China Front Army and the Chinese dispatched troops for tactical guidance.

Okamura Yasuji, who was still on the road, quickly called back and agreed to all the deployments of Shijiazhuang Yoshio. At the same time, he ordered all towns south of Shijiazhuang to be abandoned and all troops near the Pinghan Line retreated to north of Shijiazhuang!

This means that the Japanese army will give up Anyang, Xinxiang, Handan and other places.

The 109th Division, the 29th Independent Brigade, the 35th Division, and the 39th Division will all retreat northward.

There is no doubt that this is a very big strategic move.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a veritable retreat. But Okamura Yasuji insists on doing so.

Okamura Yasuji could not judge how large annihilation war the Eighth Route Army would fight.

The information he received was that the Eighth Route Army had eaten away the 36th Division of the Japanese army without using all its main forces. At the same time, it also caused significant losses to the Japanese army on the Pinghan line.

If the Eighth Route Army really wants to eat all the Japanese troops stationed in Shanxi in one bite, it is not completely impossible.

It should be noted that after suffering continuous blows, the number of Japanese troops in Taiyuan, Linfen and Yuncheng was not large. Except for the 20th Division, the combat effectiveness of other Japanese troops was worrying.

What Okamura Yasuji was most worried about was actually the 20th Division.

That is the permanent division of the Japanese army! If something happens, the consequences will be unimaginable.

But it is this 20th Division, which is the deepest part of China. The logistics supply line is very long and is extremely easy to be cut off.

Especially in the current situation, if the 20th Division is surrounded, Yoshio Shinozuka has no troops to save him. And if the Japanese army outside Shanxi wants to reinforce, it will have to last for a long time and be extremely risky.

The line of the Tai Tai was cut off, how could the Japanese army reinforce?

"Da da da da!"

"Da da da da!"

The remaining Japanese troops tried to break out to the west and met with the 26th Division that came to reinforce.

They shot wildly, trying to open a bloody path.

Their only has one opponent: Yang Yue.

But there are more than a thousand remaining Japanese troops.

In order to survive, their breakthrough was also fierce.

Yang Yue did not intercept him head-on.

He likes to attack from the side.

Shooting from afar is considered one if you can kill one.

The trapped beasts are still fighting! You have to escape one or two for others. Otherwise, how can you report the bad news?

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

The gunshots were staggered.

One after another, the Japanese fell down in an orderly manner.

The Japanese gradually realized that it was not a solution for them to run away like this! People fell down every second.

There were more than a thousand people, but as they ran, they seemed to be beaten to death.

As I ran, it seemed that less than a quarter was left.

As we ran, there were only two or three hundred people left.

All the others were beaten to death on the way to break through.

In the dark, there seemed to be a black muzzle, always aiming at them.

With every gunshot, a Japanese army fell down.

How many of them can bear it in the face of crazy shooting from their enemies?

But, should we turn around and continue to fight with the Eighth Route Army? Do we still have to break through? Maybe we can't escape.

There was no choice but to continue to move westward.

As long as you are not beaten to death, it is a good thing. If you can escape, you will be counted as one.

Xu Hu quickly rushed up with the 704th regiment.

Wang Zeduan also rushed up quickly with the 701st regiment.

They bravely pursued the Japanese invaders.

"What's wrong with you?" Lao Bai found that Yang Yue was not in a high mood.

"Nothing." Yang Yue shook his head.

In fact, he felt that the reward for killing Taro Taro Katayama was too small.

It's only an intermediate skill card. It seems useless.

An 82mm mortar is even more ruinous.

But it can only be accepted.

"Let's go to the train station to have a look."

"good!"

Yang Yue and others came to the train station.

Because the Eighth Route Army came too fiercely, the Japanese army had no time to burn all the supplies.

All the supplies around the railway station, as well as remaining weapons and equipment, fell into the hands of the Eighth Route Army. Of course, there were flour and cotton cloth.

Of course, this is not the most important thing.

The most important thing is that the line of Tai was completely cut off.

"Discover the radio!"

"What?"
