Since the outbreak of the 37-year war, the Japanese army has gradually occupied a large area of ​​territory by relying on its advantage in military strength.

But Japan is a country with scarce resources, and the same is true for its military strength.

Due to the long front line and the occupied area, the Japanese army's forces were very scattered.

At the same time, Japan also needs to retain enough troops for frontal combat.

Because Japan does not have enough troops to defend the place, it can only occupy cities and transportation lines, as well as larger towns.

As for rural areas, the control power was very poor, so the Japanese army used it to create artillery towers and strongholds.

The function of the artillery tower is relatively single, mainly to monitor and maintain public order.

According to the Japanese army's configuration, the larger artillery tower had more than 30 people, while the smaller artillery tower had only more than 10 people.

The stronghold is a relatively large fortress, which is generally built on major transportation roads, or is a relatively large township.

The fortifications at the stronghold are relatively complete and cover a relatively large area.

It is relatively complete in material reserves, which is purposeful.

Once the Japanese army leaves the city to fight, it is very likely that they will not be able to return to the city in one or two days. These Japanese troops leaving the city will live in strongholds, and the artillery towers do not have this condition.

From this perspective, in addition to the necessary military functions, the stronghold also undertakes logistics supply tasks, which has a bit of a post station.

According to the regulations of the Japanese army, a stronghold is usually stationed by a small team of the Japanese army. In addition, the puppet army has a total force of more than 100 people and is equipped with complete light and heavy weapons.

Yancheng County is next to Zhengtai Railway, which is the earliest railway in Shanxi Province, departing from Zhengding, Hebei to Taiyuan.

In places with poor road conditions, there is no need to say much about the importance of railways.

Therefore, the Japanese army deployed more troops in this area.

Not only was a rapid response motorized force deployed in Yancheng County, but a dissatisfied squadron was also arranged at the Yingshan stronghold.

Major Matsumoto is the squadron leader and the highest commander of the Eishan stronghold.

He once participated in the Battle of Songhu, and his leg was injured during the battle. After he recovered, he became limper, so he was promoted to the rear.

The days in the stronghold are actually very leisurely. Although there is not as prosperous as the county town, it is not as many things as the county town.

Major Matsumoto eats and drinks every day, enjoying his geisha wife and Nanako's singing and dancing performances, and his life is very comfortable.

Melodious music, "beautiful" performance, the song ends.

"Okay, Madam dances well."

Lieutenant Takashima clapped his hands and shouted loudly. The color flashing in his eyes was not all for the sake of applauding the leader's stinky feet.

Major Matsumoto was quite content with bringing back the top geisha from the ten Tokyo books, which was the most proud thing he had done in recent years.

He looked up and gave a wink.

Nanako took a short step to the short table and knelt down, poured a glass of sake and gave it to Matsumoto.

I have to say that women who are born in geisha have no choice but to serve others.

Matsumoto enjoyed the service of a woman and said drunk:

"Kun Takashima, after so many years of war, we have been bleeding and sweating for the empire, and now it is time to enjoy it.

Several of Nanako's friends in Tokyo will come to Taiyuan in a few days and pass by Yancheng County.

If you are interested, you might as well meet me. Life is called having a woman by your side!"

A trace of color flashed in Takashima's eyes, he raised his glass and agreed happily: "Matsumoto, thank you."

He knew something about his boss's situation.

Major Matsumoto was the squadron leader when he was in the Battle of Songhu, and he was the captain at that time.

Although he has been promoted to a higher level and becoming a middle-level Japanese officer, it does not mean that he has a future.

It is basically difficult to achieve military achievements when the front-line troops are transferred to the second-line garrison.

What's more, the position of squadron leader is usually held by an officer with the rank of lieutenant or captain.

The rank of a minor, and those with poor experience generally get a deputy position in the brigade, and those with ability are the full team leader.

If you have a certain background, you can be the deputy captain of the corps team.

Many of the students who were still alive in Matsumoto were doing better than him.

Some of the county towns stationed in the city have a huge territory and population, and they are very good at savings.

Some of them are on the front line and have the opportunity to gain military merits and be promoted.

And he, with the rank of Major, led a dissatisfied squadron, guarded a worthless town, and dealt with the guerrilla Tuba Route every day, which was so annoying.

If there is no hope for the future, then you will naturally start to study how to make money and enjoy it.

Lieutenant Takashima knows his superior’s heart disease, so why isn’t he himself?

So he agreed to Matsumoto's invitation at once.

It's time to enjoy the empire for so long.

Listening to music and dancing, drinking sake, the two commanders of Yingshan stronghold were leisurely.

However, the sound of footsteps that rushed to the scene broke the leisurely mood.

"Sir, no, Shi Laoyao's artillery tower was besieged by the Eighth Route Army. It is said that the enemy had hundreds of people and light and heavy machine guns to cover it, and was attacking the artillery tower fiercely."

Major Matsumoto didn't raise his eyelids, "Tell them to hold on, we will send reinforcements."

The soldiers who came to report the news were sent away. Matsumoto didn't even mean to move the nest, and signaled Nanako to continue playing music and dance.

Takashima narrowed his eyes and continued to look at Nanako's beautiful body curves. He had become accustomed to the squadron leader's style.

And understand it too.

In the seven artillery towers within their support range, you can receive calls for help every few days.

At the beginning, they would pay attention and quickly gather people to support.

But when we arrived, we found that the matter had been resolved. The Tujiao Route Army could not take down the artillery tower and ran away long ago.

After three or five times, Matsumoto found that they were played by Tuyao as fools.

I run on the road every day, and from time to time I have to get cold guns and step on a landmine.

If this continues, the people in the artillery tower will be fine and they will be exhausted first.

With the experience slowly summarized, Matsumoto and the others have learned it.

Don’t take the news of the help from the artillery tower too seriously. At least, you have to make a half-fold when reporting the number of enemies.

Generally speaking, the Eighth Route Army cannot get the artillery tower, and it will be fine even if they don’t go to support it.

As for how to judge whether the matter is urgent?

It's very simple. If the phone calls continue in the next half hour, the Tujiao Route Army has not given up on the siege.

That means that the Imperial Army is in danger.

It may be that the Imperial Army in the artillery tower is in danger, or it may be that the Imperial Army who rushed to support it is in danger.

It's too old-fashioned to attack the support points.

"Sir,"

The soldiers who came to report the news before rushed over again.

"Shi Laoyao's artillery tower can't hold on anymore. The Eighth Route Army used artillery, and most of the artillery towers had been destroyed.

The Nojima military commander has been killed, and the two remaining people are about to sacrifice themselves to His Majesty the Emperor."

"Sir..." The soldier's tone was filled with a hint of panic, and the rabbit died and the fox was sad.

The death of his comrade-in-law made him think that the next one would be himself?

"Nani?"

Major Matsumoto was stunned for a moment, suspecting that he had heard it wrong.
