This time, the 20th Division drove out of Taiyuan and went straight to the county seat of Ping’an, which can almost be said to have come for the shame of a snowfall.

The commander of the division, Ichiro Nanada, already knew about the expansion of the independent brigade into an independent division, but he was still fearless.

Because this time the 20th Division was not fighting alone.

Along with the 20th Division, there were heavy artillery brigades and tank brigades, and not far behind them, there were the 36th and 37th Divisions, and the 114th Division at the back as the last backup.

Along the way, the 20th Division will also be helped by a large number of local troops.

In order to sweep away the base controlled by the independent division in one go, the little devil had already built a large number of artillery towers leading to the county seat of Ping’an.

These turrets all carried radio stations, which kept track of the movements of the independent divisions.

So this time, Shichida Ichiro can be said to be quite confident.

The Northwest Jin Sweeping Army, which was temporarily formed with him as the mainstay, and the garrison units of various strongholds and artillery towers were pressing step by step to the county seat of Ping’an at this moment.

Shichida Ichiro’s purpose is simple, to find the main force of the independent division, and then a decisive battle.

Ichiro Shichita, who was riding in an armored command vehicle, constantly received reports from the garrison, and the cavalry wing of the 20th Division also left the main force and looked for the main force of the independent division.

At the same time, it was also ensured that the main forces would not be ambushed by the Eighth Route Army.

However, because of the heavy artillery units of the heavy artillery brigade, the advance speed of the 20th Division is not very fast, and walking five kilometers in an hour is already the limit.

It is also impossible for the twentieth divisions and tank divisions to lay down the heavy artillery brigades.

However, Shichida Ichiro is not in a hurry, the sweeping task is not in a hurry, he has enough time, step by step, steadily advancing.

Therefore, after a real full day of marching, the main forces of the Second Division were still hundreds of kilometers away from the county seat of Ping’an.

As long as the 20th Division passed through this hill in the northern section of the Taihang Mountain, it would only be one day away from the county seat of Ping’an.

Originally, Shichida Ichiro thought that the independent division would ambush himself in this hill, but as a result of many reconnaissance, even the cavalry wing and the top soldier search brigade controlled this hilly mountain range, but they did not even see the shadow of the Eighth Route Army.

The next morning, the troops crossed this hilly mountain range, and a squad of the top search brigade, which had advanced fifty kilometers in front of the troops, sent a telegram and discovered the main force of the independent division.

It turned out that the independent division had already been east of the county seat of Ping’an, the only way from Taiyuan to the county seat of Ping’an, and here at the small temple of fifteen miles, a large number of fortifications were built in the open, posing as if it was going to fight a sniper battle.

The fifteen-mile small temple, surrounded by relatively low terrain, low roads and mountains, is a good place to fight and block.

Receiving the report of the top soldier search team, Shichida Ichiro was not surprised, because this fifteen-mile small temple chosen by the independent division was the best defensive area.

Coming through the hilly mountains in the north of the Taihang Mountains, in fact, it enters a basin, surrounded by mountains on three sides.

And to continue forward, you must pass through the small temple in Li to be able to enter the northwest of Jin.

The 20th Division could only continue to advance if it captured the fifteen-mile small temple.

Of course, this is also a good place to close the door and fight dogs, and after that, as long as someone cuts off the road running through the northern foot of the Taihang Mountain behind the 20th Division, if the 20th Division cannot penetrate the fifteen-mile small temple, then the 20th Division will be a turtle in the urn.

However, Shichida Ichiro was not worried, because there were still two divisions behind him, and under such circumstances, he was not at all afraid that the independent division would cut off his retreat.

What’s more, he did not think that the independent division had the strength to completely annihilate his own 20th division.

After all, beside him, in addition to the twenty divisions, there was also a battlefield brigade, a heavy artillery brigade.

And this time, the XX division was armed with a large number of anti-tank guns.

The 57-millimeter hundred-fold caliber anti-tank gun can penetrate more than two hundred millimeters of homogeneous steel plates, and no tank in this world can resist.

Shichida Ichiro’s confidence is indeed justified.

In fact, not to mention the tanks now equipped by various countries, even the most powerful Tiger tanks in the late World War II cannot stop this hundred-caliber tank gun.

A hundred-caliber artillery with a very powerful armor-piercing ability, but in fact, if you can’t fire a few shots, the barrel will be scrapped.

Such expensive anti-tank equipment is really impossible to equip on a large scale.

And this is the only means by which the little devil can improve the anti-tank armor-piercing ability to the highest without developing new anti-tank equipment.

Therefore, Shichida Ichiro is very confident.

But for Ye Ming, there is really a hemp criticism to tell.

These twenty divisions are like centenarians who are staggering at the same time, making him really wait for a long time.

By the time the 20th Division arrived at the Fifteen-Mile Little Temple, it was almost the third day.

Then Ye Ming watched, the little devil began to build fortifications, was loaded into trucks of heavy artillery brigades, methodically unloaded various heavy artillery parts, and then built heavy artillery positions between five kilometers and twelve kilometers from the fifteen-mile small temple.

Seeing this, Ye Ming really planned to give the little devil a few ear scrapers.

The little devil’s movements are so slow, in fact, they are already quite fast.

After all, the road in northwest Jin is not easy, there are seven turns and eight turns, and there are many winding mountain roads, but it is not like on the plain, a horse and a flat river.

Coupled with the fact that the little devil carried a lot of heavy equipment this time, the efficiency of action was even slower.

In fact, against an army of nearly 50,000 troops, the speed of the little devil is really not slow.

But for Ye Ming, this speed is simply turtle climbing.

If it is an independent division, in these nearly three days, it can break into Sijiazhuang.

After all, the trucks equipped with independent divisions, which are modern military trucks, can easily reach speeds of sixty to eighty kilometers per hour in terms of off-road speed.

Coupled with a highly mechanized force structure, rushing to the road, for the various armies of this era, it can be called a gallop.

However, a good meal is not afraid of the night, the speed of the 20th Division is a little slower, Ye Ming is not in a hurry, he is also waiting for Ding Wei’s 2nd Leopard Brigade, to cut off the northern foot of the Taihang Mountain, the only road from northwest Jin to Jinzhong region.

Then there is the planned closure and fight the dog, and the plan formulated by Ye Ming is not a counter-sweep, but a heavy army that has been annihilated by the devil. _
