Chapter 335: One more vote
Two hours later, the battle between the Independent Regiment and the Okazaki Battalion ended, and the entire army of the Okazaki Battalion was wiped out.
In order to be able to kill Okazaki brigade, the Independent Regiment suffered a lot of casualties, and it may take a certain amount of time to recover. However, the Okazaki brigade that successfully killed the Japanese was still worth the casualties.
It was also after the Independent Regiment soldiers rushed to the position of the Okazaki Brigade, the Japanese defending in the other two directions of Guanjiaya retreated and were unable to continue defending, which made the Eighth Route Army troops fighting in the other two directions also successfully rushed to the Guanjiaya. To be precise, it was not only the Independent Regiment fighting the Okazaki Brigade, but also the other two Eighth Route Army troops.
However, being able to rush to Guanjiawu is inseparable from the independent group.
"Damn it! This time you, Kong Jie, took the lead, mom! I want to cut off Okazaki Ken's head with my own hands! This is a middle-aged master!" Li Yunlong looked at Kong Jie lying on the stretcher and cursed.
Kong Jie forced a smile, and he knew that Li Yunlong would scold him. He had long been used to Li Yunlong's personality. Li Yunlong wanted to cut off the head of the Japanese captain. Could it be that Kong Jie didn't think about it? This is a Japanese master, not a soldier. Kong Jie would not let such a piece of fat slip away from his eyes!
"Old Li, you are one step slower, no one can blame me. I will accept the head of the Japanese captain and give you that assistant knife." Kong Jie said weakly.
Li Yunlong nodded quickly, "Okay, Lao Kong, you go and recover from your injuries. When your injuries are healed, we brothers and two will fight side by side!"
"Okay! Lao Li, just wait!"
...
In the rear command center, the brigade commander was ordering the soldiers to prepare for retreat. Okazaki's brigade who killed the Japanese was good, but the Japanese who received the news would inevitably take revenge. There were Japanese reinforcements coming in all directions, and the Japanese aviation troops would definitely come again, and prepare for retreat in advance, and there would be no chaos when retreating.
"The Brigade Commander, the New First Regiment, the 771st Regiment and the 772nd Regiment successfully killed the reinforcements from the Japanese. Ding Wei and others wanted to ask you what to do next." The Chief of Staff put down the phone, with a hint of joy on his face.
Ding Wei and others did a very good job of killing the reinforcements from the Japanese in such a short time. In the opinion of the Chief of Staff, Ding Wei and others were able to kill the reinforcements from the Japanese in direct operation, which was a completely unexpected surprise. The regiments led by Ding Wei and others were good, with good combat power, but the troops of each regiment were insufficient, so there would naturally be insufficient suppression when dealing with the Japanese.
In addition, in order to arrive at the Guanjiadian area in a short time, the units of the 386th Brigade did not carry too many heavy weapons, which made it difficult for them to successfully suppress the Japanese firepower when they fought with the Japanese.
"No, right! Ding Wei and the others did a good job this time! Order Ding Wei and others to prepare for retreat and wait for the next order. Once they receive the retreat order, they must withdraw from the Guanjiawu area as quickly as possible, and there must be no delay at all!" The brigade commander relaxed a little, but his face was still quite serious.
Looking at the map in front of him, the brigade commander was a little happy. More and more Japanese reinforcements arrived, and many troops fought with Japanese reinforcements. With the Guanjiawu area as the center, a large number of battles occurred within a radius of hundreds of miles. It is good to kill the Japanese Okazaki brigade, but it cannot be ignored that in order to kill the Japanese Okazaki brigade, many casualties occurred in various units of the Eighth Route Army.
During this period, all units of the Eighth Route Army needed to rest and recuperate, and the lack of military strength restricted the combat effectiveness of each unit.
"I'll go to the division headquarters. Chief of Staff, please wait for the results here. You still need to ask about the decisions of General Peng and Commander Peng." After explaining to the chief of staff, the brigade commander walked out of the command center and quickly rushed to the location of the division headquarters. Before going, the brigade commander also called the division headquarters to inquire, but no result was given there.
This time, the brigade commander went to the division headquarters in person to know what was going on. Okazaki's brigade, who killed the Japanese, had completed the task of organizing various troops to encircle and suppress the troops. He continued to stay in this area. When more and more Japanese reinforcements arrived, he would probably have to pay a considerable price to retreat.
When he arrived at the division headquarters, the brigade commander could feel the atmosphere in the division headquarters was a bit solemn, which made him solemn. What exactly happened?
"You are here, the speed is still very fast." The division commander said with a smile when he saw the brigade commander walking in.
The brigade commander quickly came to the division commander, "Teacher, I don't know what our 129th Division is going to do next. This time, in order to kill the Japanese Okazaki Brigade, our 386th Brigade suffered a lot of casualties."
"You also know that the battles have been frequent during this period. Our 386th Brigade is the main force of the 129th Division, and there are quite a few casualties. None of the four regiments of our 386th Brigade are full, and the casualties of the independent regiment are relatively serious, and the troops are less than 30% of the original! The combat effectiveness of our 386th Brigade is at least 50% weaker than before."
The division commander stretched out his hand and patted the brigade commander on the shoulder, signaling him to relax, "Don't worry, I know the situation of your 386th Brigade. Our division suffered a lot of casualties during this period, and I know it."
Seeing the division commander's serious expression, the brigade commander felt relieved. The division commander who knew clearly the situation of the 129th Division should no longer make the decision to continue fighting. The brigade commander was not afraid of fighting with the Japanese, but he knew that destroying the Japanese could not be killed in a short period of time. Only by making himself stronger can he better kill the Japanese.
"Old Chen, come and see." The division commander brought the brigade commander to the map, with a flash of light in his eyes.
The brigade commander looked at the place pointed out by the division commander and could see that it was a traffic line, which made his expression solemn. Could it be that the division commander was preparing to take action against the Japanese traffic line? With the current strength of the 129th Division, it is still very stressful to take action against the Japanese traffic line, and the Japanese traffic line is not so easy to deal with.
"The division commander, there are heavy troops on the Japanese traffic line. With the situation of our 129th Division, it may be difficult to take action against the Japanese traffic line." The brigade commander said directly.
The division commander nodded. He naturally knew this, but he naturally had his considerations when choosing to put his target on the Japanese traffic line. During this period, there were many casualties in the 129th Division. The division commander knew that the 129th Division needed enough time to rest, but if he wanted to rest, he had to beat the Japanese to rest! Otherwise, the Japanese would continue to destroy the base area, so there was no way for the 129th Division to rest.
"According to the reliable information obtained by the headquarters, in order to support the Okazaki Brigade that was besieged by us in the Guanjiaya area, the Japanese drew a large number of troops from this traffic line."
"Now the Japanese have less than 50% of the troops on this traffic line. How about it? Do you think you can fight?"
“…”
The brigade commander understood and looked at the division commander beside him. He felt much more relaxed. The Japanese were mobilized to get the troops, so if they didn't get a single vote on the Japanese transportation line, wouldn't it waste the Japanese's "good intention"!
