Shinozuka Yoshio only made a decision after discussing with the General Staff.
"Send three regiments of the 115th Division to reinforce the northwest war zone. Contact the regiment commander of the Tsuba Miwu Brigade and ask him to increase the intensity of his attacks. He had to bite down on the main forces of the eighth route.”
"Commander, our supplies are not enough for a big battle! If we attack like this, the Zhengtai railway defense will fall into a vacuum!”
Shinozuka Yoshio paced back and forth as he judged the gains and losses of this battle!
Their 115th division was stationed near the railway line, and their main task was to protect the traffic line.
The development of the Empire required transportation, and these basic industrial resources had to be transported back to Manchuria in order to assemble good things.
Hence, the 115th division had a very heavy mission.
However, other than the 115th Regiment, he was the only one left in the Jinsui region.
However, the division in his hands had to defend against the Jin Sui Army, while the other counties were all security troops, so they lacked the ability to fight in the field.
The elites of the Imperium were all in the other war zones. It would take at least half a month to transfer the troops from the other areas!
The 115th Division, which was stationed near the Zhengtai railway, was the fastest troop that Shinozuka Yoshio could mobilize within three days.
Although defending the railway line would result in a few days of empty troops, Shinozuka Yoshio decided to take the risk.
Gritting his teeth, he quickly made up his mind."Contact Commander Tada and ask them to transfer troops from North China to protect the Zhengtai railway.”
"Right now, the opportunity is fleeting. This time, we have to completely wipe out the 18th Army!”
"Hey!"
"Also, where is Yamamoto?”
"Reporting, Yamamoto has successfully infiltrated the hinterland of the eighth route an hour ago, waiting for an opportunity to make a move.”
Shinozuka Yoshio nodded.”
Although Yamamoto Ichiki's special forces usually stayed hidden during the day and came out at night, the battlefield was changing too quickly at this moment. Shinozuka Yoshio sent out Yamamoto, who he had his eyes on, for extra insurance.
"Yamamoto, contact me as soon as you reply!”
"Hey!"
……
Fourth Brigade, Tutian Mitake's command post!
After receiving the order to attack, Tsuda Mitake nodded at the phone with a happy expression.
"Hey, I promise to complete the mission!"
Pa.
After hanging up the phone excitedly, Tsuba Mitake quickly instructed the various departments.
"Contact the leader of the neutral team, Xiao Tai. Ask him to mobilize the troops guarding Pingan County and cooperate with Benshan Jianping to enter the hinterland of the eighth route. This time, we will make the center bloom!”
"Contact Commander Ohno Kazuya at the front line and have their troops tie down the main force of the 8th route!”
"Contact the commander of the Shotaro Artillery Regiment. Make sure he arrives at the battlefield at 9 am tomorrow morning.”
Before Tsuda Mitake could finish giving his orders, he suddenly heard an urgent message from outside.
"Report!"
"What is it?"
"Brigade Commander, Commander Ohno Kazuya has reported the latest news. They have discovered that Regiment 771 and Regiment 772 of the 8th Route have already broken out of the encirclement.”
The staff officers and higher-ups of the Ghost Squadron were instantly excited!
"Haha, Eight Paths can't hold on anymore!"
"This mountain's great captain will be the first to receive the credit!”
The two regiments of the Eighth Route Army began to retreat. Benshan Jianping's main battalion, as well as Li Tianci's Huang Xie Army's cavalry regiment, had already charged into the battlefield.
This time, the eighth route would be surrounded by enemies from both sides.
"Oh my, the 8th route has discovered that the attack on Wan Jia Town has failed. This time, they failed to steal the chicken and suffered a loss!”
"Haha, let Captain Ohno Kazuya increase the intensity of the attack. When Li Tianci's cavalry arrived, they would definitely die.”
"Hey!"
Following Tsuba Mitake's order, the Japanese soldiers quickly took action!
At 6:35 in the morning, the sun gradually rose and the sky gradually became clear.
rumble ~
The Japanese artillery continued to bombard the 8th route.
The 8th division of the 772nd and 771st regiments were retreating in an orderly manner!
"Commander, shouldn't we pursue them now?”
Commander Ohno Kazuya looked relaxed. He smiled and shook his head."Not now!"
He wasn't in a hurry to attack the eight paths that were running away!
The surrounding ten kilometers were mountainous areas, and the environment was complicated. It would be very difficult for their team to attack.
Instead of using the mountain as the main battlefield, it was better to use the other side of the battlefield as the graveyard of the eighth path.
Looking at the 8th route of the base of the 772nd Regiment, he smiled malevolently."Prepare to assemble the troops and surround the main road. Earth rats, don't you think it's too late to escape now?”
"Your Excellency regimental commander, your Excellency brigade commander is urging us to speed up the pursuit!”
Ono Kazuya raised his eyebrows. Get the soldiers ready to move out. We must stick to them before the eighth route is built!”
"Hey!"
"Report! Ma Dahuai and Li Tianci of the Huang Xie Cavalry Brigade are still five kilometers away from us.”
The reinforcements came so quickly?
Was it that easy for Junior Benshan Jianping to attack?
Kazuya Ohno thought that Kensei Motoyama was indeed an outstanding junior of the Imperial Military Academy.
He smiled and nodded. It seemed like Tu Ba Dao was definitely going to die this time. Let Li Tianci's troops surround the flanks and annihilate this eight-way main force!”
"Hey!"
The 771st and 772nd regiments retreated in a hurry. They were still retreating into the mountains. They were already panicking and did not know where to go.
If it was Ono Kazuya's entire regiment, they would not be able to quickly take down the other party.
He had wanted to play the duck chasing tactic and slowly wear down the eight main forces.
Who knew that reinforcements would arrive?
If he had the help of a few thousand cavalrymen, he was 100% confident that he could finish off the 300 people in front of him.
"Sakata-kun, I will use the head of Cina to offer you wine!”
A pursuit in the mountainous area must be fast.
In order to ensure the speed of the pursuit, he had his 3000 men abandon all their weapons.
They only carried eight 92 Heavy Machine Guns and two 41 Mountain Cannons in preparation for the assault.
As for the infantrymen, they only carried light machine guns and grenade launchers.
In order to bite down on Blind Cheng of the 772nd Regiment, the Japanese directly gave up their most powerful firepower advantage.
However, Ono and the regimental commander did not know that danger was gradually approaching.
They thought that the escape was just a planned and premeditated attempt to lure the enemy in!
Just as the main forces of 772 and 771 were retreating, the new regiment's deputy commander had arrived quietly. He was leading the new regiment's 3rd Battalion and setting up an ambush in two strategic locations.
Originally, the new regiment was responsible for guarding against the Japanese in other areas.
Who knew that the Japanese soldiers had all gone to attack the 772nd and 771st regiments.
The area that the new regiment was in charge of chasing did not have any Japanese reinforcements, so they were sent out a battalion to ambush them!
Just as Ono Kazuya urged his men to speed up their pursuit.
More than 1,300 cavalrymen, led by Li Tianci, were getting closer and closer to Ohno Kazufuru.
