Chapter 130 Do you want to act without authorization?
"Yoshi...it's great, Teng County has finally been captured!"
Major General Shandi Gen looked at the telegram sent by the 10th Division with a delighted smile on his face. The capture of Teng County meant that the only thing the defenders stationed in Linyi could do was to retreat immediately, otherwise they would wait for them
It was a two-sided attack by the Imperial Japanese Army.
Major General Yamachi Wataru turned around and said to Seishiro Sakagaki, who had a somewhat complicated expression on his face: "Your Excellency, Division Commander, aren't you happy that Teng County was captured by the Isoya Division?"
"Happy, of course I'm happy!"
Seishiro Sakagaki grinned bitterly, showing a smile that was uglier than crying. If possible, he would rather the 10th Division lost troops and generals in Teng County like him.
In this battle, nearly half of his Fifth Division suffered casualties, while the Isoya Division received frequent successes. Compared with each other, Sakagaki's incompetence became even more apparent. This made the base camp think about the Fifth Division in the future.
Treat him Seishiro Sakagaki.
"Your Excellency, division commander, what are you thinking about?" Shanchi Wataru couldn't help but asked in wonder when he saw Seishiro Sakagaki looking out the door and wandering into the sky.
Sakagaki Seishiro suddenly came to his senses and said in a panic: "Ah, it's nothing, I'm just happy for Isoya-kun."
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, the newly added field artillery regiment of the Front Army has disembarked at Lianyungang and is expected to arrive the day after tomorrow. Should we attack now to hold back Suri's 300 Brigade and Pang Bingxun's Third Army in front?
Already?"
Speaking of Suri, Major General Shanchigen was full of resentment. This guy actually destroyed his heavy artillery regiment on the first night after he came to Shaling. As a result, the entire army did not even have a major weapon.
caliber artillery. As a result, I and the Fifth Division had superior strength but were pinned to the ground and beaten wildly by the opponent. Don't feel too aggrieved.
In the end, he and Sakagaki had to shyly ask the front army to send an additional field artillery regiment again. For this reason, he had been warned by the front army. If this happened again, the front army would definitely give him a free ticket.
The boat ticket allows him to return to his homeland and eat himself.
In order to atone for his sins, Major General Yamachi Wataru had to urge Sakagaki Seishiro to increase the speed of the advance. But how could he understand Sakagaki's mood at this moment? Sakagaki was eager to see the Isoya Division eat immediately.
If the battle is defeated, he will not be as active as Shandi Gen.
Sakagaki glared and said: "Shanji-kun, you don't know the power of the heavy artillery of the 300 Brigade across the way, as well as the mines they planted. If we attack them now, aren't we trying to increase casualties? The lives of the Imperial samurai are all at stake.
It's precious, we have no right to waste it like this. Let's wait until our field artillery regiment and additional recruits arrive to discuss the attack."
Shandi Gen secretly curled his lips, this old guy is really shameless, his own division has suffered more than half casualties, and now he is talking about how he loves his soldiers as his own children, this is too hypocritical.
However, he was the lieutenant general commander of the division, and he, the major general commander of the brigade, had to listen. However, he still wanted to struggle a little more. He was about to speak when suddenly the riverside commander hurried in and reported.
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, the China Three Hundred Brigade at the foot of the mountain retreated overnight last night!"
"What? The 300 Brigade retreated!"
Shandi Genhuo stood up and shouted loudly: "Your Excellency, Division Commander, since the 300 Brigade has retreated, let's pursue it quickly, otherwise we will be in trouble if we wait for them to escape back to Xuzhou."
"no!"
Sakagaki still shook his head and said: "Shandi-kun, don't think about it. Even if you catch up to Linyi City, do you want to take down Linyi with its high walls and deep walls just by relying on those few grenades and small mortars?"
?”
"this……"
In the end, Shanchi Gen had to give up the idea angrily.
Not to mention Seishiro Sakagaki's complicated mood, Suri received a telegram from Xuzhou as soon as he returned to the Linyi headquarters.
"Chief Li wants us to withdraw to Xuzhou?"
"Yes." Pang Bingxun nodded: "Since Teng County has been lost, the Japanese army may come from behind us at any time, so it is no longer necessary to defend Linyi."
Su Rui said with some annoyance: "Of course I know this truth, but the problem is that now we have more than 10,000 people, and even more with supplies. But there are only three trains at the station, so many people
There’s no way we can get all the supplies and supplies at once.”
"That's right." Pang Bingxun thought for a while and then said: "How about we transport the artillery and important supplies back to Xuzhou first, and the remaining personnel can just walk back."
"no!"
Su Rui shook his head: "Linyi is nearly 700 miles away from Xuzhou. It will take at least ten days and a half to walk back. The day lilies will be cold by the time we get to Xuzhou. Besides, little Japan won't just watch us do this.
He went back in a big way."
"Then what should I do?" Pang Bingxun was anxious. This won't work and that won't work either. Sakagaki is not a good guy. I guess he will force him over soon.
"I have no choice but to take it one step at a time. Now let's evacuate the wounded and important materials first. As for the number of personnel, we can evacuate as many as we can."
"This is the only way." Thinking of the many supplies on the station, Pang Bingxun was like a deflated balloon. A few days ago, he only hated that he had too few supplies and desperately allocated supplies to the theater headquarters. But now he hates that he has too few supplies.
He had never said such a thing to the war zone. Although he also wanted to leave all these supplies here and run away, if he really did this, Pang Bingxun would never want to ask for a bullet from the war zone again in the future.
Seeing Pang Bingxun's depressed look, Su Rui smiled and said: "Sir Pang, don't be anxious. Even if the Sakagaki division comes to attack again, are we still afraid of him? If we can defeat him the first time, we will definitely do it."
I can beat him a second time. Do you think this is true?"
"Haha... you still know how to talk."
Pang Bingxun was happy when he heard this. He smiled and patted Su Rui on the shoulder and said, "Okay, then, brother, I will risk my life to accompany you and stay here with you for two more days."
Suri smiled and said: "Well, that's right. I want to see if the old guy Sakagaki dares to come over again. Then I'll see how I beat him."
"Hahaha...Okay, if you have this heart, brother, I will definitely accompany you."
Pang Bingxun laughed. After several battles, most of his third army was lost. Now there are only more than 4,000 people. Sun Ran has added some new soldiers in the past two days, but it is still less than 6,000 people. But he still has real firepower.
Without the slightest fear, as the old saying goes, you are planning to break the jar.
Su Rui and Pang Bingxun sent an urgent message to request the war zone to send enough wagons. At the same time, they packed and transported Linyi's huge amount of things by train. On the other hand, they stepped up the construction of defenses in preparation to withstand the possible attack by the Japanese army at any time.
But something happened that shocked Su Rui and Pang Bingxun. They waited in Linyi for two days. According to the report of the team that went out to investigate, the Japanese army had been hiding in the sand ridge for the past two days and had not been dispatched.
The signs look very honest.
This made Su Rui and Pang Bingxun, who were waiting for a fierce battle, depressed for a long time. Has Sakayuan changed his temper and won't even take advantage of the situation?
However, since the Japanese army did not come to attack, they were naturally happy to relax. On March 20, five trains from Xuzhou arrived. Su Rui and Pang Bingxun quickly got all the troops on the train and ran to Xuzhou in a hurry.
It was not until Su Rui and Pang Bingxun's troops all boarded the train and marched towards Xuzhou for almost a day that the troops of the Fifth Division and the 111 Brigade arrived belatedly and occupied Linyi without firing a shot.
When Seishiro Sakagaki and Major General Yamachi Gen stepped onto the city wall of Linyi, looking at the messy city wall and nearby fortifications, Sakagaki felt that he had finally let go of the bad temper he had been feeling these past few days.
Sakagaki nodded with some relief: "Very good, Teng County has been captured by the Isoya Division, and now even Linyi has fallen into our hands. I want to see if the Chinese army in Xuzhou can still
Withstand the might of the empire?"
Shandi Gen also echoed: "Yes, Your Excellency, since we have occupied Linyi and the reinforcements of the field artillery regiment have arrived, should we immediately move towards Taierzhuang?"
"What are you moving in?" Sakagaki Seishiro shook his head and said: "After occupying Linyi, our sect has completed the tasks assigned to us by the front army. The next thing we have to do is to rest and reorganize the troops and wait for the arrival of additional troops."
To be honest, in the battle for Linyi, the three field regiments of Sakayuan's Fifth Division all suffered heavy casualties. Although Sakayuan is known as a young representative of the military in China, he is not a person who only knows how to do it.
A reckless man who shouted to fight and kill. He knew very well that as the battle progressed, the deeper into Xuzhou, the more intense the Chinese resistance would be. Therefore, Sakagaki had no intention of joining in until his fifth division was fully replenished.
This is lively.
Sakagaki Seishiro thought so, but Major General Yamachi Wataru on the side was anxious. He said loudly: "Your Excellency, although the order you received is mainly to capture Linyi, it is also an order from the front army to join the Taierzhuang and Isogani divisions.
One of them!"
"Sanchi-kun, please pay attention to your words." Sakagaki was a little annoyed when he was repeatedly beaten by Shanchi. He shouted with a straight face: "The order of the front army is to let me capture Taierzhuang with a camera. Do you understand what a camera is? Then
I just went in when I had the opportunity. Now that the Fifth Division has suffered heavy losses, do you still want me to destroy the last bit of the division's foundation?"
Seeing Sakagaki getting angry, Shanchi Wataru's stubborn temper also rose. He frowned and said: "Since you are unwilling to enter Taierzhuang, our No. 111 Brigade is happy to continue moving forward with Isoya.
The divisions will meet at Taierzhuang."
"Um...Are you going to act without authorization?"
As soon as he heard this, Sakagaki's tiny eyes suddenly shot out a mesmerizing light...
