Eight hundred and sixty seventh chapter devils alert
"General, something happened. The Third Battalion was ambushed by the main force of the Eighth Route Army here and suffered heavy losses. Now the aviation force has arrived for reinforcements, and the specific situation is still unclear!" Walking up to Major General Kawaguchi, the chief of staff pointed to a point on the map.
reported.
"Impossible..." Kawaguchi objected without hesitation.
"The main force of the Eighth Route Army has been dispersed to several battlefields. It is impossible for there to be troops to ambush one of our brigade, and it is also a strengthened brigade with the cooperation of the Imperial Army... It must be a bluff of the Eighth Route Army. Our troops are too nervous and exaggerate the situation on the battlefield!
"
The chief of staff really didn't want to break Kawaguchi's dream, but the fact was the fact. He hesitated and continued: "But they will not exaggerate the casualties of the troops!"
"As soon as the battle began, they lost more than half of them...these Eighth Route Army were not only equipped with a large number of light and heavy machine guns, but also mortars, and the flying thunder cannons made by the Eighth Route Army themselves, which have extremely powerful firepower!"
"Nani?" Major General Kawaguchi finally believed it, then a nervous expression flashed across his face, and he stared at the Chief of Staff and ordered.
"What's going on on Bageya Road? Can anyone tell me where these Eighth Route Army troops came from?"
"Contact them immediately and quickly find out the opponent's situation..."
"Also, order the intelligence personnel to mobilize all intelligence personnel in Linfen to once again confirm the situation of the Eighth Route Army on various battlefields!"
"Hi!" The chief of staff did not dare to neglect, and raised his legs to send a telegram.
But as soon as he reached the door, he was stopped by the communications staff, who then handed over a telegram with a nervous look on his face.
After reading the telegram, the chief of staff's face, which had remained calm just now, turned pale after a quick glance.
After returning to Major General Kawaguchi, he said with a look of despair: "General, the aviation force reported that the Eighth Route Army attacking our third group has launched an attack and is strangled with our people. They have no way to provide support and can only return..."
"It's over..." These two words came directly to Major General Kawaguchi's mind.
Before he could react from the shock, another communications staff officer rushed over.
"Sir, the farewell telegram from the Third Battalion: The Eighth Route Army attacking them is not a new regiment. It belongs to the Taiyue Military Region of the Eighth Route Army. The specific number is unknown, but there are at least two regiments... We will contact you after receiving the telegram.
They can no longer be contacted!"
Major General Kawaguchi sat down on the stool, his face turned pale, and his mind had become a mess at this moment.
This ambush battle not only meant the loss of a reinforced brigade, but also meant that a large number of changes would occur in this battle situation in which the imperial army had already taken the initiative.
With the strength of the Imperial Army and the New Regiment completely dispersed, no matter which battlefield the Eighth Route Army of these two regiments appeared on, the blow they would bring would be devastating.
He frowned and ordered: "Contact the aviation force and help me withstand the Eighth Route Army of these two regiments. Bomb me whenever there is a chance. I want to know their next movements, right away!"
"Also, contact all other forces that can be contacted and ask them to strengthen their offensive against the Eighth Route Army, focusing on killing a large number of Eighth Route Army troops. At the same time, ask them to send more reconnaissance troops to ensure that there are no other Eighth Route Army troops on the battlefield!"
"If two regiments of other Eighth Route Army troops can appear in Linfen, then three regiments or even more troops may appear. We have to guard against them!"
"Also, let all attacking troops be prepared to withdraw at any time!"
"If the situation is as bad as I just inferred, and there are other Eighth Route Army troops in Linfen, then we can only end this encirclement and suppression battle early. The troops are too scattered, and I don't want to lose another reinforced brigade!"
At three o'clock in the morning, the commando team, led by the armored company, quietly captured a Japanese railway garrison stronghold.
At this time, they were less than two kilometers away from the train station. If they went further, the possibility of exposure would greatly increase.
Wang Ping decisively ordered the troops to stop advancing and hide in the stronghold until the next night.
Although the troops launching an assault now are very likely to capture the train station before dawn, after dawn, the political commissar will not be able to carry supplies. If the angry little devil chooses to send out a plane to blow up the mountains of supplies at the train station, then he will
This battle is in vain.
Therefore, Wang Ping decided to suspend the attack on the spot and wait until the Japanese planes could no longer visit the battlefield before continuing the attack!
"Regiment commander, the commander telegraphed that they have captured the little Japs from the fourth battalion and are cleaning the battlefield!" the communications platoon leader walked up to Wang Ping and reported excitedly.
Wang Ping was also very happy. As the commander-in-chief of the former enemy, directly commanding the commander and deputy chief of staff in combat, he was under extraordinary pressure.
Victory in every battle is the achievement of a goal for Wang Ping.
His eyes lit up and he analyzed: "We have cut off another tentacle of the leader of the Japanese Brigade. As long as we cut off a few more of his tentacles, the little leader of the Japanese Brigade will become a polished commander!"
"Contact several other troops immediately, I want to know the latest situation on the battlefield!"
In less than an hour, the communications staff officer came back, with no visible expression on his face.
"The regiment commander and the chief of staff called back. After a day and night of fighting, they have killed more than a hundred Japs. But today the Japs are much more vigilant, and there are a lot more planes, so they can only make small fuss.
, there is no way to assemble the troops to fight the Japanese ambush!"
"The cavalry battalion reported that they were on their way to the second battalion. They encountered the same problem. Due to harassment by Japanese planes, they could only disperse and march at a much slower pace than usual."
"The Second Battalion called back: The Japs' offensive today is very fierce, and there is aircraft support. They have decided to abandon the position and let the Japs into the base area to fight again!"
"The situation of the fourth battalion is similar to that of the second battalion and they decided to abandon the position..."
"In addition, the political commissar reported that the Japanese intelligence officers lurking in the base area seemed to be crazy today. They all came out to carry out sabotage and came to our station to collect intelligence. He has ordered all local troops to strengthen their vigilance and arrest all suspicious persons.
We will screen and release them after the battle is over!"
"There are also little Japanese planes, which have also increased their reconnaissance and patrolling of the base area, causing a lot of trouble for him to summon the big vehicles!"
Wang Ping's brows suddenly wrinkled: "The devil must have noticed something!"
"I know, it's the commander's side... the main troops of two regiments suddenly appeared in the base area, making the commander of the Little Japanese Brigade alert!"
"According to the little devil's investigation efforts, they will soon know that the cavalry brigade has also been killed by us!"
Jin Kai, who was next to him, frowned and added: "If the little devil knew that both armies of his were killed by us, as long as he was a little vigilant, he would end the siege early and withdraw his troops back to Linfen..."
"Captain, we must hurry up and seize the train station and empty it before the little devil reacts!"
Wang Ping had a sullen expression and said nothing.
The train station is right in front of you. Whether it's to kill the Japanese or to get the mountains of supplies at the train station, you have to take it.
After hesitating for almost half a minute, he decisively ordered: "Send a telegram to the first battalion, fourth battalion, and second battalion, asking them to abandon their positions directly and let the little Japanese enter the base area!"
"Tell them that no matter what happens, they will keep the Japs in the base area for at least a day and night. Before dawn tomorrow, the Japs who enter the base area are not allowed to leave one by one!"
