Shinozuka Yoshio led his troops to Niangzi Pass, but by the time he arrived, Niangzi Pass had already been breached.
The corpses of hundreds of Japanese were thrown onto the trees. Their clothes were stripped off, leaving only the hats on their heads and a white butt curtain.
Corpses were everywhere, and the originally sturdy fortress had been blown into ruins.
The most hateful thing was that their warehouse had also been robbed, leaving only a can of biscuits inside. It seemed that they were deliberately mocking Shinozuka Yoshio.
"Baka!" Shinozuka Yoshio roared as he pulled out his military knife and cut the table in half.
"Yan Dong, the Suijin Army, you've gone too far!”Shinozuka Yoshio's eyes twitched.
Yan Dong was forcing him to his death by doing this.
Niangzi Pass was too important for the Japanese to send troops to North China. Without it, the Chinese army, the 8th Route guerrillas, and other anti-Japanese armed forces could travel back and forth between Shanxi and Hebei.
The Japanese army had spent a lot of effort to block them, but now that such a big pass like Niangziguan was gone, it meant that all the efforts of the Japanese army were in vain.
"Where did the Jinsui Army go?" "Who can tell me where they are?!" Shinozuka Yoshio shouted angrily.”
A Japanese officer ran over." Commander, we found survivors at Niangzi Pass."”
"Bring him here!" Shinozuka Yoshio roared.
He just wanted to find Yan Dong as soon as possible and get to the bottom of everything. He didn't want to be shot by Yan Junliu.
Soon, a few Japanese with faces full of smoke were brought over. One of them was a lieutenant.
Shinozuka Yoshio grabbed his collar and shouted,""Where did the Chinese go?"
The lieutenant swallowed hard." They, they should be heading to Yangquan. I heard that they are going to Shijiazhuang to rob something!"”
Shinozuka Yoshio was so scared that his hair almost stood on end. If the Jinsui Army really went to make trouble in Shijiazhuang, it was obvious that Shinozuka Yoshio was too incompetent to even manage the matters in his own jurisdiction.
It would be strange if Jun Liu didn't come and shoot him.
"Quick, follow me to Yangquan immediately. We must stop them!”Shinozuka Yoshio roared.
The chief of staff had a bitter expression." Sir, the troops can't continue the long distance raid. The soldiers are already very tired!”
"I know everyone is tired, but they must persevere," Shinozuka Yoshio said anxiously. If the Jinsui Army really attacks Shijiazhuang, it means that our First Army is useless, do you understand?”
Helpless, the chief of staff could only order all the troops to continue advancing.
The Japanese army complained. They had not slept for two days and had been on the road for a week. Many people could fall asleep standing.
However, an order was an order. They could only drag their tired bodies and continue marching.
After leaving Niangzi Pass, he rushed all the way to Chaoyang Spring.
The Japanese army was advancing very slowly, incomparable to their previous speed.
Shinozuka Yoshio was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, but there was nothing he could do. He knew that the troops were very tired.
It was already good enough that everyone could still obey orders. If they were too tough, it was hard to guarantee that something would happen.
Now, he could only pray that Yan Dong wouldn't go too far and catch up to him as soon as possible.
His prayers came true. Not long after they entered Yangquan, there was a sudden rumble of artillery around them. A large number of artillery shells bombarded the Japanese army.
Shinozuka Yoshio was dumbstruck. He saw that the hills on both sides were filled with the Jin Suijun.
There were also hundreds of tanks rumbling towards them!
Yan Dong led two divisions to wait here for a long time. They waited for fatigue and instantly defeated the exhausted Japanese vanguard.
Many of them were so sleepy that they could not even open their eyes. They were walking on faith.
By the time they sensed danger, it was already too late. The artillery shells rained down on their faces, and the bullets swept past them. Countless bodies were blown into meat paste, and countless people were pierced by the bullets and turned into hornets 'nests.
The Japanese army was beaten to the point of retreat. No matter how Shinozuka Yoshio commanded, it was useless.
A tired army, no matter how elite they were in the past, would not be able to defeat the Jinsui Army, which was waiting for fatigue.
In this battle, the Japanese army was chased for more than 50 kilometers and suffered more than 10,000 casualties.
Yan Dong knew when to stop. He knew that a rabbit would bite when it was desperate. After all, he only had two divisions.
The ghost didn't know his real identity, so he was chased.
By the time they came back to their senses, it would be hard to say who was chasing who.
Yan Dong won a great victory this time. He led his troops around the Japanese army and retreated to Luliang.
Of course, along the way, he passed by Changzhi and cleared out a small warehouse that the Japanese had set up here.
Shinozuka Yoshio led his troops back to Taiyuan. The morale of the First Army was at its lowest point.
Whether it was the division or the exploration team, all the way down to the lowest squadron, everyone showed that they did not want to fight. At least, they did not want to fight for the time being. They needed rest.
Shinozuka Yoshio was really forced into a dead end. Although Shunroku did not give him a specific time, Shinozuka Yoshio knew that he did not have much time left.
But with the current situation, he had no way to destroy the Jinsui Army, let alone catch the culprit, Yan Dong.
In order to save his life, he could only look for the Chief of Staff to discuss a solution.
"If I am shot, you will definitely be implicated!”Shinozuka Yoshio glared at Chief of Staff Hattori Masao."We're one. You have to help me!”
Masao Hattori covered his face helplessly. He did not expect to be dragged into this.
"There's only one way to solve this!”"Find Yan Dong for peace talks. Let's coexist peacefully!"”
