Draw the sword and cure the fear of insufficient firepower

Chapter 128 There Must Be a Big Fish

Lin Tian immediately ordered his troops to continue the pursuit and to completely wipe out the 8th Mixed Brigade. What Lin Tian valued was the explosive equipment reward after completely annihilating an entire brigade of the Japanese.

"Hey, Weiguo, you lead our vanguard and continue the pursuit, because so many of our comrades have been sacrificed in this 8th Mixed Brigade, and I must avenge this!"

"There are less than a thousand devils left. Charge at them directly after you catch them. I don't want any of them alive!"

Lin Tian dialed the phone number of the vanguard and gave orders.

"Yes, Commander, leave no one alive!"

Zhou Weiguo replied.

Then the artillery battalion also set out.

After destroying this group of devils, Division 1 can head north to attack the devils around Rongcheng.

Walking on the road, Chu Yunfei held his chin with one hand and frowned.

"Brother Lin, don't you find it strange?"

"There are only a few hundred devils left in the devil's 8th Mixed Brigade, and they actually sent an entire flying squadron to rescue them."

"Moreover, despite suffering heavy losses, their aircraft not only refused to retreat, but even launched suicide attacks against us."

"Brother Lin, don't you think there must be something fishy going on here?"

Chu Yunfei told Lin Tian about his doubts.

I have to say Chu Yunfei is really a talented person. He was not carried away by the victory.

In this case, the problem is found directly.

"Oh, if it weren't for what Brother Yunfei said, I wouldn't have noticed it."

"The Japanese's behavior is indeed abnormal. There are only a few hundred Japanese. There is no need to send out the air force to rescue them."

"Could it be that... there is something fishy going on in this 8th Mixed Brigade?"

"What could it be?"

Lin Tian also reacted and realized that what Chu Yunfei said made sense.

There was no need for the Japanese to dispatch an entire flying squadron just for these few hundred defeated soldiers.

Moreover, even though they knew they were no match for their opponent, they still fought to the death and even flew their planes directly into them.

You have to know what price the Japanese have to pay to train an excellent pilot.

It is obvious that these hundreds of defeated soldiers are not as valuable as the Japanese pilots who were killed in action.

The Japs are not stupid either, they can still figure this out.

"I see!"

Lin Tian thought for a moment and suddenly said in surprise.

"Brother Yunfei, I heard a piece of news from the Japanese special forces captured in the Qingshan prisoner-of-war camp."

"It is said that the Japanese North China Front Army organized an officer observation group just to observe Yamamoto Ikki's special operations."

"The war has been going on for so long, and there has been no intelligence on this observation group."

"I dare to conclude that this officer observation group is in the 8th Mixed Brigade!"

"Maybe our previous attack has killed some of the Japanese in the observation group!"

"If this is true, we must chase and annihilate this group of devils. There must be a big fish among them! Otherwise, the devils wouldn't be so angry!"

Lin Tian suddenly thought of the information that Tony Dashu had given him before.

It must be because the observation group was among the fleeing soldiers, so the Japanese were anxious and sent away a flying squadron to cover their retreat.

"Oh? According to what Brother Lin said, the situation becomes clear."

"That makes sense..."

"There must be someone at the brigade commander level or even higher in the officers' observation group, otherwise the Japs wouldn't be so crazy!"

"Congratulations, Brother Lin, you caught a big fish this time!"

Chu Yunfei bowed to Lin Tian and said.

……

Daxiawan Headquarters.

General Lao and the Chief of Staff were studying the map.

"Report, our reconnaissance team has sent us intelligence that the Japanese 36th Division in Qucheng is marching rapidly towards Fangcheng."

"The 36th Division carries a large amount of heavy equipment and is currently 50 kilometers away from Fangcheng."

An intelligence staff officer reported.

"What?! The 36th Division of Qucheng?!"

The Chief of Staff and General Lao exclaimed in surprise.

Then I found the location of Qucheng on the map.

"General Lao, the total strength of the Japanese 36th Division is the Japanese elite force. They are now marching towards Fangcheng, and they will definitely run into Lin Tian's First Division and the 386th Brigade."

"Why are the Japs so crazy this time? The total number of troops dispatched for this mopping-up operation has reached 70,000!"

"Seventy thousand troops! This is no less than launching a large-scale battle!"

The Chief of Staff said solemnly.

"What's wrong with the devil? Is he crazy?"

"They are still sending more troops. What's going on? Are they trying to wipe out all the anti-Japanese forces in Shanxi Province in one fell swoop?!"

"He doesn't even consider whether he has good teeth. Otherwise, he won't be able to eat meat and his front teeth will be broken by bones!"

"Hurry up and notify Lin Tian, ​​Li Yunlong and the others! At the same time, tell the Central Army and the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army about the 36th Division's dispatch!"

"A division, this is no joke, we must take it seriously!"

Mr. Lao ordered hurriedly.

……

Towards Fangcheng.

"Commander, headquarters called and said that the 36th Division from Qucheng is marching towards us and is expected to meet us in two hours!"

Liu Wu ran to Lin Tian with a telegram and reported.

"what?!"

Lin Tian and Chu Yunfei were both shocked.

"Haha, this battle is becoming more and more interesting."

"We destroyed the enemy's flying squadron, and now another division has arrived!"

"Brother Yunfei, this further proves what I said. The Japanese officer observation group must be ahead!"

“And the fish in there are not small!”

"Who on earth could make the Japanese come to rescue him one after another at any cost?!"

When Lin Tian heard this, he was not afraid, but felt excited instead.

The soldiers are in high spirits now, and the firepower of the 36st Division is very strong. Even if they cannot completely wipe out the th Division, they can at least repel them.

"Haha, Brother Lin, there won't be any locust lickers in this officer observation group, right?"

"But, Brother Lin, you still have to take the strength of a division seriously. Even if you have tanks and artillery, your numbers are too small after all."

"Brother Lin must be cautious."

Chu Yunfei made a joke and then spoke seriously.

He didn't want Lin Tian to act on impulse and go straight up to confront the 36th Division.

In this way, Lin Tian will definitely suffer heavy losses.

"Haha, maybe I really have a relative who licks locusts. Brother Yunfei, don't worry, I'm not that kind of reckless man."

"Things are getting more and more interesting. I must see who the big shots are among this group of devils!"

Lin Tian's face was excited and he said excitedly.
