Chapter 150: An Arrow's Vengeance
"The most elite guard force in the Ninth Theater of the China Army? I know it. It's the one that caused the entire unit of Xiong Wujun's 45th Regiment to be smashed into pieces in Jiankou Town last time... Immediately send all the troops of this unit to pieces..."
All analytical data were sent to the commander of the Ushijima Brigade, and he was told to resolutely attack the brigade while ensuring that the troops can advance steadily!" After hearing the news, Inaba Shiro's eyes radiated a light,
He looked at Taro Inoue and his expression gradually became serious...
"Hai!!" Taro Inoue stood at attention and saluted, and then ran back immediately. For him, he still had to stay away from the division commander, otherwise he would be slapped.
Looking at Taro Inoue's leaving figure, Shiro Inaba's eyes gradually showed a trace of murderous intent. However, this murderous intent was not directed at Taro Inoue, but the National Army's Ninth Theater Guards!
Yes, Inaba Shiro must avenge the previous attack on Jiankou Town! This is the best opportunity!
…
About twenty minutes later, Ushidao Mitsuru, who was on the south bank of the Xinqiang River, finally received a reply from the division headquarters.
I saw a Japanese major running to Ushijima Mitsuru holding a translation of the telegram, standing at attention and saluting: "Report to your Excellency, General, the division headquarters will call you back!"
"Yoshi, it seems that our battle is promising." Ushijima Mitsuru nodded, looking very satisfied, and then said: "Hurry up, I want to see who our enemy is!
"
"Hai!!" the major responded, and then said: "The security force of the ninth theater of the China Army is currently located in Sanjiang Town on the south bank of the Xinqiang River. The commander-in-chief of this force is Wu Yizhi, who is the commander of the China Army.
The commander-in-chief of the Ninth War Zone, Xue Yue, was the chief of staff when he was the commander-in-chief of the First Corps of the Ninth War Zone, with the rank of lieutenant general; currently the leader of this unit is the former enemy commander-in-chief Colonel Zhang Tianhai, who served successively as the 36th Division of the Central Army of the China Army
Deputy company commander, company commander, and battalion commander of the 216th Regiment of the 108th Brigade. Before the Battle of Nanjing, he took up the position of colonel commander of the first regiment directly under the third theater of war. He once led his troops to break out and retreat from the south of Nanjing; in the Xuzhou battlefield
A brigade of the 5th Division of Lieutenant General Seishiro Itagaki was severely damaged; one of its troops was severely damaged by our troops at the Lanfeng battlefield, causing it to be almost shot; after the Lanfeng battlefield, the first regiment directly under the Third Theater was reorganized into the Ninth
The First Theater Guard Regiment. At the same time, the enemy's Ninth Theater Commander's Headquarters established the Second Ninth Theater Guard Regiment. The two troops were called the Ninth Theater Guard Force! This unit once made a sharp attack on the town of Quankou, leading to the defeat of the commander Xiong Wu.
Everyone below Colonel Shoro is in pieces! Your Excellency, the commander of the division, Shiro Inaba, has ordered us to resolutely attack the troops in this unit as long as the steady advancement of the troops can be guaranteed! Report completed!"
After listening, Ushijima nodded thoughtfully, and then said: "Yoshi, your mission is completed, you can go back and do your business!"
"Hai!!" the major responded.
Watching the major's leaving figure, Ushijima Mitsuru said to himself: "No wonder we suffered so much on the front line. It turns out that we encountered such an insidious and cunning enemy! With such sophisticated weapons and good at sneak attacks, this
We must avenge ourselves!"
After the major left, Ushijima Mitsuru ordered people to open the military map and began to study the next combat operation in detail. He had to ensure that he could resolutely attack this enemy force that had caused their Sixth Division to lose face!
Looking at the context on the map, Ushijima Mitsuru said harshly: "Order the 13th Regiment to begin the official crossing of the river tomorrow! At the same time, telegraph the aviation force that our southward column will attack the China Army on the south bank of the Xinqiang River tomorrow morning.
The security forces of the Ninth Theater Command of the Central Army have launched an offensive, please send military planes to carry out large-scale bombing of Sanjiang Town as soon as possible!"
"Hai!!" the Japanese officer beside Ushijima Mitsuru responded.
Looking at the sunset gradually setting in the west, Ushijima Mitsuru's eyes were full of depth...
…
So the question is, is Zhang Tianhai’s headquarters really in Sanjiang Town?
Actually, it's not.
Zhang Tianhai does not have a bad habit of staying away from the front line battlefield, because he always feels that only in the place closest to the front line can he most truly feel the changes in the battlefield - these changes also include the sound of gunfire, artillery, and Japanese aircraft.
The sound of bombings, etc., all kinds of factors are involved.
So, what is Zhang Tianhai doing at this time? Nonsense, of course he is catching up on his sleep. After enduring such a long period of mental torture, he is certainly very tired.
At this moment, a staff officer on duty ran over and wanted to report the situation to Zhang Tianhai, but was stopped by Xu Xun: "Wait, are you in a hurry?"
I saw the combat staff officer saluting Xu Xun, who was one rank higher than him, and then said: "Report to Commander Xu, news from the front line says that the Japanese army has advanced southward, and one of their advance regiments has crossed Xinxin."
The wall has descended to the south and is groping towards the south. I feel that this matter must be reported to the commander-in-chief as soon as possible, otherwise we will suffer a big loss."
I saw Xu Xun nodded, took the translated message from the hands of the combat staff, and then said: "Okay, you can go back first, and I will report this matter to the commander-in-chief!"
In the entire war zone security force, no one knew that Xu Xun was Zhang Tianhai’s secretary, so the combat staff officer had no other questions. He stood at attention and responded: "Yes! Sir!"
Looking at Zhang Tianhai who was sleeping soundly, Xu Xun gritted his teeth and walked in - if it wasn't such a particularly urgent military matter, he would definitely not want to disturb the group. As Zhang Tianhai's secretary, he knew very well that Zhang Tianhai
It had been such a tiring period of time, and as Zhang Tianhai was the core of the entire war zone security force, Xu Xun was really afraid that he would collapse from exhaustion one day.
"Regiment seat, urgent call from the front line." Xu Xun patted Zhang Tianhai gently.
"Did something happen on the front line?" Zhang Tianhai slowly opened his bloodshot eyes, looking sleepy, and his whole person looked listless.
"There is an urgent call from the front line. The Japanese army has moved south, and one of their advance units has crossed the Xinqiang River and is heading towards us." Xu Xun reported as briefly as possible.
After hearing the report, Zhang Tianhai did not panic. Instead, he looked at his watch and then at the sunset outside, and then said: "Isn't it dark now? Little Japan is not good at night fighting. Don't worry, they
The advance will stop soon. Call the secret service company immediately and ask them to pay attention to the Japanese army's movements and disrupt their rear if necessary."
"Yes, Tuanzuo!" Xu Xun responded.
