Faced with Yamamoto Ichiki's furious question, Daisuke Kameda said dejectedly,""It's said that the command center of the 4th and 9th Brigade was attacked last night.
The two regiment commanders and their staff officers were all crushed.
The two exploration teams were without a leader, so they were defeated by the independent regiment.”
"Baka!" Yamamoto Ichiki was both shocked and furious. He never expected that his sneak attack on the independent regiment's headquarters would not be successful.
Instead, they had been ambushed by the enemy.
They had lost two major generals at once, which resulted in the two main exploration teams being almost wiped out.
This operation could be said to be a huge loss!
However, Yamamoto Ichiki quickly calmed down.
After all, he had studied at the Berlin Special Military Academy in Germany, so his psychological quality was not something ordinary people could compare to.
After calming down, he immediately said to Daisuke Kameda,""Kameta-kun, please report this situation to General Shinozuka immediately.
In addition, pass down the order for all the city guards to prepare for battle immediately.”
"Good!" Guitian nodded and left.
Yamamoto ordered one of his adjutants,""Inform all members to gather immediately.”
……
Taiyuan City, the headquarters of the First Army stationed in Jin.
Shinozuka Yoshio was having lunch in the dining room when a communications staff officer from the communications department of the command center walked in quickly with a message in his hand.
Noticing the strange expression on the communications advisor's face, Shinozuka Yoshio put down his bowl and chopsticks.
"What is it?" he asked.”
The communications staff officer with the rank of major saluted,""Sir Commander, we have just received two pieces of very bad news.”
"What news?" Shinozuka Yoshio's heart sank when he heard this.
"The North China Observation Group that was supposed to arrive at Taiyuan today has been found. They were ambushed in Wuyi County.
General Hattori Naoomi and all the soldiers of the empire had died in battle.”
The communications advisor paused for a moment before continuing,""According to the report from Ping An, the 4th and 9th Brigade were also defeated by the China Independent Regiment last night.
The two exploration teams had been wiped out, and the two major generals and regiment commanders had all died!”
"Nani?" Even though he was mentally prepared, the series of shocking news still hit him.
It still shocked the old devil, Shinozuka Yoshio.
He suddenly stood up, walked around the dining table, and came to the communications major.
He grabbed the other party's clothes and shouted in exasperation,"What happened? What happened to the observation group? Which enemy did it?
How could the 4th and 9th Brigade be defeated by a mere independent regiment? What happened?"
"General, there is no accurate information as to which troop ambushed the observation group.”
" The 4th and 9th Brigade were defeated," the chief communications officer said in fear." It was said that a Tuba army attacked their joint command last night.
The two regiment commanders and a large number of staff officers and adjutants were killed on the spot.
Then, the Independent Regiment took the opportunity to launch a surprise attack.
The two exploration teams were defeated because of this!"
"Bagaya Road!" Shinozuka Yoshio was furious and pushed the communications major away.
"What about Yamamoto?" he roared angrily. Didn't he attack the Independent Regiment headquarters? Why did the independent regiment still have the ability to counterattack?”
The communications major, who staggered back a few steps, quickly lowered his head and replied,""General, Commander Yamamoto failed to destroy the Independent Regiment's headquarters.
But it also severely injured him!"
"Bagaya Road!" Shinozuka Yoshio was extremely furious. He kicked the table in front of him and roared angrily,""If he severely injured the Independent Regiment's headquarters, how could the Independent Regiment have the strength to counterattack?
They even defeated two of our main exploration teams!
Two exploration teams and an army of more than 20,000 soldiers were defeated by a Tu Ba team of less than 2,000 soldiers.
And he was defeated so miserably. It was simply a great humiliation!”
"General, please calm down." The communications major advised and continued to report,""The Pingan garrison also reported in the message that a large number of Tuba troops are moving around them.
They seem to want to attack Peace City!"
"Nani?" Shinozuka Yoshio's gaze was so sharp that it could kill.
"They still dare to attack Pingan County?" he said through gritted teeth. Baka!
He immediately ordered the 21st and 49th divisions to set off to reinforce Pingan County.
There were also the troops around Ping 'an who rushed over to join the battle.
In addition, order Colonel Yamamoto and Colonel Kameda to defend to the death and wait for reinforcements!
The Independent Regiment is a bunch of bastards who don't know the danger. If we let them take down Ping 'an County City, the First Army and even the entire Imperial Army of the North China Empire will lose all their face!
Therefore, we must not show weakness!"
"Ha Yi!" The communications major suddenly nodded and hurriedly ran away to receive the order.
……
Ping 'an County, Japanese Army Garrison Headquarters.
Yamamoto Ichiki gathered his sixty or so surviving members.
He originally wanted to retreat first to preserve his strength and wait for the next battle.
Unexpectedly, before he could give the order to retreat, a signalman ran over quickly.
"Sir, General Shinozuka is calling."”
Yamamoto Ichiki raised an eyebrow and reached out to take the message. After reading it in a hurry, he couldn't help but be stunned.
The adjutant beside him saw that his expression was very ugly, so he mustered up his courage and asked,"Sir, what happened?"
"Something happened to the observation group as well. General Hattori and more than 100 elites of the empire were killed!”
" The general ordered us to stay safe with the Peace Garrison and wait for reinforcements!" Yamamoto Ichiki said with an ashen face.”
