"Regiment Commander, just discovered a small team of Japanese and puppet troops entering Baodian!" A squad leader of the regiment's direct reconnaissance platoon reported.

"Oh?" Zhao Ying asked, "You look carefully, how many people are there?"

"A strengthening team has more than one hundred people and a company of puppet troops. It's almost the same number, with more than two hundred people!"

"Report this situation to the brigade commander immediately!" Zhao Ying turned his head and said to the correspondent.

"This must be the Japanese devil from Shenjingzi!" Zhang Yihu judged, "Listen, gunshots and explosions!"

"It's the direction of Shen Jingzi!" Liang Canmou said, "The Chief of Staff has taken action!"

"Report, Chief of Staff Telegram!"

"read!"

"Our army has occupied Shenjingzi and only found a small number of Japanese and puppet troops. They seized weapons and ammunition as soon as they were killed. The troops have been replenished, leaving a company behind, and the rest are heading towards Ulantuga!"

"Okay, report the battle report to the headquarters soon!"

"yes!"

The headquarters of the East Column hundreds of kilometers away is brightly lit at this moment, and everyone is not resting. They are all working. Dozens of radio stations on the Telecommunications Office are on, and they are receiving messages from all parties at any time!

The headquarters went to the war room, Lu Shan, Qin Shiyu, Ying Ruoyu and Li Du were all there. Except for Liu Yushu, he was responsible for logistics work, and he did not stay in the war room. Four of the five giants in the headquarters were here!

"Report, Li Haiqing called, the 12th Brigade had already entered Baicheng Shunlin, and the cavalry brigade of the commander of the Lingyang-Changhai had also blocked the way out of the four gates of the south, north and west of Baicheng..."

"Okay. Li Haiqing did a beautiful job this time!"

“How is the battle?”

"The Japanese military police headquarters is still fighting fiercely. The puppet army Li Shoushan's unit is weak in fighting spirit, but it is still resisting!"

"It seems that it is not that easy for Li Haiqing to successfully win Baicheng!" Ying Ruoyu said slowly.

"This is a war, and the enemy will never give up the city to you!" Li Du said.

"How about Zhang Yihou?"

"A Japanese and puppet reinforcements from Shenjingzi arrived in Baodian, but they did not intercept them. Chief of Staff Li Yi led the third regiment to capture Shenjingzi and was heading towards Ulantuga!" Xiao Xue closed the folder and reported.

"The Japanese army soon had a chance to wake up, and ordered Zhang Yihou to take down Ulantuga, and stop fighting south. Go back to the army immediately and eat the Japanese army in Baodian!" Lu Shan ordered.

"yes!"

"Old Lu, are you too conservative? The situation is very beneficial to me now?" Qin Shiyu asked in confusion.

"We can't eat a fat man in one bite. It's time for us to fight to the death with the Japanese army!" Lu Shan said, "Digest the meat we eat in our mouth first!"

"I agree that our army's strength has grown too fast, and the army's training and personnel equipment cannot keep up, especially the quality of the army. Although we have three major disciplines and eight points of attention, violations of discipline still happen constantly. In addition, our logistics support capabilities have reached the limit. If the Japanese army had not launched an attack, I do not agree to provoking the Japanese army on their own initiative!" Ying Ruoyu supported Lu Shandao with a clear attitude.

"I also agree with Mr. Lu's point of view. In the past, we had no choice but to hit us. If the Japanese wanted to hit us, they would be bullied and would have to fight back. But now we can beat the Japanese and cannot fight back. We should fix it, otherwise we will be weak in the future!" Li Du said.

"Not provoking it does not mean that we have to make peace with the Japanese, but accumulate strength. This takes time and a process. There are many problems we have to solve, including military training, equipment, and pensions for the dead!" Lu Shan said, "This is also the reason why I agree to fight but do not agree to fight!"

"As long as we eat up thousands of Japanese troops this time, I believe the Kwantung Army will really calm down for a while!"

"So this time my purpose is to consume the vitality of the Japanese army, not to occupy the city!" Lu Shan continued.

"I heard that the Deputy Chief of Staff of the Kantong Army, Kamura Yanji, is in Baodian. If he can capture him, he will undoubtedly have a lot more bargaining chips for our next negotiations!" Ying Ruoyu said.

"That depends on whether our Brigade Commander Zhang has the ability to catch this big fish!" Lu Shan said with a smile.

"It's better to capture it alive, if you beat it to death, it will be much less valuable!"

Baodian, Japanese Army Command.

The explosion and gunshots in the direction of Kuroko were gone for only a dozen minutes, which cast a shadow on the heart of the Japanese commander such as Gangmura Yanci!

The original plan was to break through and withdraw from Baodian at 9 o'clock, but now the plan has been temporarily suspended due to a situation in Shenjingzi!

Once Shenjingzi is occupied by the Chinese army, the road to the south will be blocked. Even if he can walk out of Baodian, it may not be safe!

Then you can only go west and towards Qian'an!

Is this a safe breakout route? You are not sure about the enemy situation. It would be too risky to break out rashly. If you accidentally break into the ambush circle of the Chinese army, you will die without a burial place!

The combat power of these qina troops is indeed unique. When a few thousand soldiers attack a small town with thousands of people defending, they dare to divide their troops to attack their own rear. In addition to the boldness of the opponent's commander, they are probably also capable of enhancing their courage!

"His Excellency Chief of Staff, Baicheng urgently..."

"What?" Gangmura Neji was shocked, feeling that he seemed to have missed something, and now he thought of it!

At the same time, Kwantaka Koiwaki, who was far away in Changchun, also received an urgent message from Baicheng to the headquarters!

When Koikiki Akira saw the content of the telegram, his face suddenly turned pale!

"Hurry, go and invite Ishihara Takashi!" Koiki Aki hurriedly called his adjutant Matsuki Yuichi to call Ishihara Smile.

During the period when Ishihara Kan's injury, her work and rest time was very stable. Basically, she would go to bed when she was a little bit late.

And he was injured in that place, and his female sex had already faded, so when Matsuki Yuichi found him, he was about to take off his clothes and go to bed to rest!

He is just a personal high-level actor of Koi Iso Kyoshi. He only serves Koi Iso Kyoshi. He rarely interferes in other matters unless Koi Iso Kyoshi lets him take care of it!

"Matsuki, why are you so anxious to call me over?" Koiki Akira asked strangely. He had just taken off his glasses and had some eye care, which was just something he had to do before going to bed every day.

After doing this, he would not wear glasses anymore if he did it. As a soldier, a good work and rest time is one of his life's creeds.

"Your Excellency Chief of Staff, please come over. Something big happened!" Matsuki Yuichi said.

"Big thing?" Ishihara was shocked. Koiki Akira knew his daily routine. If it weren't for a major event, he wouldn't have sent someone to call him at this time!

Ishihara Kaner thought for a while. He picked up the glasses at the head of the bed, put them on and said, "You wait a moment, I'll put on my clothes!"

A quarter of an hour later, Ishihara Kanir appeared in Koiki Aki's office!

"His Excellency Koi, it's so late, call me over, what happened?" Ishihara Kaner asked the first question.

"Ishihara, look, this is an emergency telegram from Baicheng!" Koiki Aki had calmed down at this time. Before Ishihara Kanoki came, he had sent an urgent telegram to Zhang Haipeng from Taonan, ordering him to send troops to rescue Baicheng immediately!

Zhang Haipeng also received a report from Li Shoushan and a message for help.

The military situation is like fire, and Zhang Haipeng is also an old corps. If there is something wrong in Baicheng, his Taonan will be in danger. His lips are dead and his teeth are cold. He immediately summoned his subordinates to discuss, dispatched troops, gathered up a brigade's troops, and handed them over to his confidant general Wang Yongqing. He set out from Taonan overnight to assist Li Shoushan!

This Wang Yongqing was originally a bandit, with a name called "the best in the world". Later, he was recruited to become the Northeast Army and became Zhang Haipeng's subordinate. He was the commander of the regiment and now he is the commander of the brigade!

This guy killed people like numb. His hands were covered with blood from anti-Japanese patriots. He was a guy who was devoted to following his master Zhang Haipeng and the Japanese!

This guy is the most active in combating the anti-Japanese armed forces. His subordinates are all a group of gangsters who kill without blinking, so he is quite combative!

Zhang Haipeng sent him there, on the one hand, hoping that a mighty general would suppress the situation, and at the same time, he did not want Bai Cheng to fall into the hands of the anti-Japanese armed forces.

Once Baicheng falls, Taonan will basically have no barriers. At that time, either he will fight hard or he will have to take the defeated generals to Changchun to serve the Japanese!

"Old Master Koi, have you figured out the Chinese army that sneaked into Baicheng?" Ishihara Kaner was also shocked when he saw Baicheng's rescue message. The closest to Baicheng should be the Su Bingwen tribe of Qiqihar, and the Su tribe should not launch foreign military operations at this time. Their commander was still seriously injured and unconscious!

"It's not clear yet, but they have a large number of cavalry!"

"Caval, was it the cavalry that defeated the Fourth Brigade?" Ishihara Kaner said in surprise.

"It should be that cavalry. Its commander is Gong Changhai, who is Feng Zhanhai's subordinate!" Koiki Akira said.

"Is it just Miya Nagahashi's cavalry?" Ishihara asked back.

"Ishihara-kun means..."

"We let the Chinese army play!" Ishihara Kanir took a long breath and said, "We were wrong from the beginning. They were not trying to retaliate against the Chinese soldiers in the battalion that we destroyed in the Guaibo Store!"

"Their target is Shiraki!" Ishihara said heavily: "What a terrible scheming, Mr. Koi, we thought of one step, but our opponent thought of three steps, five steps, and even more!"

"Ishihara, can you explain it a little more clearly!" Koiki Akira understood a little, but was also a little confused.

"The Chinese army attacked Baodian just to attract our attention. Their real target was Shiraki!" Ishihara Kanir explained, "They used the most elite troops to attack Baodian to make us believe that they are here to avenge, but this is just an illusion. In secret, they have already nailed their eyes to Shiraki!"

"First of all, there is one of their cavalry near Baicheng, with a population of more than 4,000 people and a great strength. The newly affiliated Feng Zhanhai general Gong Changhai can cross the Nenjiang River at any time to travel south. Second, Songyuan is about 300 kilometers away from Baicheng. If there are cars or horses to transport, they can arrive within a day and night. According to the information we investigated, the 1st brigade of the Chinese military is the only unit equipped with cars in the Chinese military. The maneuverability is not below our army, but their cars are missing. What does this mean?"

"Long-distance attack on Baicheng!"

"Yes, I just rush to Baicheng for a long distance. Ask Baicheng and see the outfits of the Chinese army in the siege!"

"Ask now!" Koiki Akira ordered the adjutant.

"Hayi!"

"Old Master Koi, we must make the most fun plan!" Ishihara Kan's mind was spinning rapidly!

"You mean Baicheng might fall into the hands of the Chinese army?"

"Our army has only one or two squadrons in Baicheng, one infantry and one cavalry, which totals only four or five hundred people. The number of Chinese troops siege is at least 8,000. With the low walls of Baicheng and the suddenness of the attack, and the current battle report says that the Chinese troops easily entered Baicheng. All this shows that the Chinese troops had already made careful arrangements before, but we did not notice at all!" Ishihara Kaner analyzed.

"Oh no, Professor Miura is still in Shirakawa!" Koiki Akira suddenly remembered that he received a telegram during the day.

"Professor Miura, is Professor Miura Yasuya a geologist?" Ishihara asked in surprise.

"Yes!"

"He has been missing for nearly a week, how could he be in Shirakawa?" Ishihara asked suspiciously.

"This will be explained in detail in the future. If you come, please send an urgent message to Sawatanaka Saku of Shiraki. Even if Shiraki cannot defend it, you must ensure the safety of Professor Miura!" Koiki Aki called the guards anxiously and ordered.

"Wait, Professor Miura disappeared in the China-controlled area. How could he suddenly appear in Baicheng? He happened to be discovered the day before the Chinese army siege?" Ishihara Kaner asked suspiciously.

"Professor Miura's activities in China are top secrets of the base camp. If their guide had not had a conflict with a local Mongolian noble, we wouldn't have known that Professor Miura and others are in Shirakawa now!" Koiki Akira explained.
