Did I hear it wrong? What was the army in front doing? It was a hand-to-hand fight.
Instead of intercepting the troops breaking out of the encirclement, they directly engage in hand-to-hand combat. How much price and determination it takes to make such a decision.
Their people are not crazy, are they? Who gave these orders?
"What did you say just now? Did you say they were fighting hand to hand?" Matsui asked in complete disbelief.
The adjutant repeated the message carefully.
"Yes, Your Excellency, Captain, they are currently engaging in hand-to-hand combat."
How is this possible, how is this...
Matsui's suspicion came to light after he suddenly thought of something.
yes.
How could they not fight hand-to-hand? They must have thought that the aviation force would increase their numbers, so they ordered direct hand-to-hand fighting. Only in this way can the aviation force be unable to carry out any reinforcements to them.
I'm afraid there is no hope of breaking out of the troops.
Matsui turned to look at his chief of staff, with questioning eyes.
The Chief of Staff seemed to understand the meaning of this. He sighed: "Your Excellency, Wing Commander, I'm afraid there's not much hope for them to come out. We'll just make a show of it next."
Yes, it can only be a show-off. If it really launches a full-scale attack, the Gui Army's interception will never let it pass so easily.
"That's it. That's it."
After experiencing a hand-to-hand fight, the breakout regiment was exhausted and unable to fight back. They could only evacuate to a few hills and resist stubbornly, and then requested reinforcements from the military headquarters.
They can't trust anyone now, they can only trust the military. Otherwise, in order to preserve their own strength, some people don't know how to reinforce them next.
I guess one or two would not be interested at all.
Anan Weiji's anxiety was finally alleviated, because the main force had withdrawn, and he prevented a division from being completely annihilated by the opponent near Changsha.
The dissipation of this anxiety brought peace to his heart. However, the elation had not lasted less than a day when a message asking for help was once again delivered to him.
Looking at the message in his hand, Ananwei rubbed his temples in disbelief.
The enemy was too cunning. He moved his main force out of the way, but intercepted the rearguard. If he went in to rescue, he would inevitably launch another attack. But if he did not rescue, the surrounded troops would either have to surrender.
Or, let them be annihilated.
No matter which choice he made, he didn't really want to accept it.
But then again, some things are not a question of whether he wants to or not, but a question of what he must do.
"Your Majesty General, what should we do next? Do we need to launch a rescue operation?"
"What do you think?" Anan Weiji glanced at his adjutant.
He had never been so worried before.
The adjutant shook his head slightly. He didn't know, but he also knew that the choice given to the General in the Ninth War Zone was not a good choice.
That choice, Your Majesty the General, is not something you want to choose.
"They should be rescued. After all, they are the strength of a regiment. If they are annihilated, the reputation of our 11th Army will no longer exist."
There is also fame.
The failure of this battle has already damaged the reputation of the Eleventh Army, and what the empire has to do next is to recover and stop the loss.
"Let Matsui United attack immediately."
If it is really impossible to advance, then we can only abandon this alliance.
And judging from their actions during this period.
In just one or two days, the battle will be resolved, because they can't hold on much longer.
"I understand." The adjutant heard another meaning of Anan Weiji. If he couldn't rescue him, he could only give up.
"By the way, what's the situation in Kyoto now?" Anami Weiji solved the matter and asked sideways.
The adjutant had already understood the situation. He took a document from the side and handed it to Anami Yuki: "Your Excellency, General, Kyoto's victory gathering in Changsha is still going on."
Still going on.
Tojo is indeed deceiving himself. Of course, it is impossible for the people to know the real situation here. All sources of information have been controlled by the authorities. No one knows except the troops that will be withdrawn by then.
If it were in the past, the Navy might have told this news.
But now, they will never be stupid.
This time, the navy was also affected by the incident in Kyoto.
This time, the people were not only dissatisfied with the prime minister and cabinet, but also with the navy.
So they won't tell it.
"Your Majesty General, aren't the cabinet worried that this matter will be exposed by then?"
The adjutant did not understand why the higher-ups would do such a thing. They had already failed here, so how could they still talk about victory? This was not a lie.
"Who would say it out loud? This is their interest. If they still want to maintain their current interests, they can only work together to cover up this matter.
Of course, if there is victory, there will also be failure.
It is not impossible to capture it, occupy it for a period of time, counterattack from the opposite side, and lose it.
They just need to conceal the matter for a period of time, and then find a suitable reason to solve the matter.
By then, the people will have calmed down because of this incident and will no longer have any thoughts of revenge and dissatisfaction. Instead, let some think tanks operate a little bit, and everything will be as before.
"Don't worry about what happened to Kyoto. I think they themselves knew this failure. If they hadn't been too persistent, we wouldn't have failed so quickly."
The Matsui Regiment originally planned to conserve its own strength and attack sparsely for two games.
However, the order issued by the military headquarters undermined his intention to conserve strength. He had no choice but to launch an all-out attack to open a gap and allow the surrounded troops to come in.
Three kilometers away, he had already received news that the surrounded regiment was three kilometers away from him, and these three kilometers seemed to be an insurmountable gap.
Zhang Renhua felt the Japanese army's fierce counterattack.
Seeing that his front-line position was defeated by the opponent, Zhang Renhua looked at the adjutant beside him; "Let the secret service team launch an attack quickly. Our side can hardly stop it. The Japanese army looks like they are going crazy."
The adjutant nodded and immediately sent the message.
Xiao Yazai received the message from Zhang Renhua and immediately found Zhou Weiguo who was discussing with Jiang Yue and others how to attack.
"Awen, they sent a message. The Japanese army is attacking fiercely. I hope our speed can be faster."
