Eight hundred and sixtieth eight chapters devils to run
The Japanese brigade headquarters in Xiangfen County and the brigade commander Major General Kawaguchi were very happy.
Just half an hour ago, the troops attacking the three battalions of the New Regiment received good news one after another. They successfully broke through the Eighth Route Army's defense line and entered the Eighth Route Army base area.
Because he lost an infantry brigade, Major General Kawaguchi was not in a good mood at all.
The arrival of three good news immediately wiped away his bad mood and regained his confidence in defeating the new group!
The brigade commander's mood improved, and the tense heart of the chief of staff also relaxed.
Seeing the new telegrams sent by the three brigade captains, he rushed to the brigade commander and reported excitedly: "General, the three brigade captains sent another telegram. The remaining Eighth Route Army on the battlefield was almost defeated in one blow. They are following the instructions.
Book a battle plan, attack the base of the three main battalions of the New Regiment, destroy their base, and knock off their foundation!"
"Yoshi, the three brigades fought well!" Major General Kawaguchi was very satisfied with the result.
He hesitated and ordered: "Give them a telegram back and ask them to fight steadily and not go deep alone. Although the new regiment does not have many troops anymore, they are too cunning. Rabbits will bite when they are in a hurry, not to mention they are all
The Eighth Route Army is well-equipped and powerful!"
"Hi……"
Less than ten minutes later, when Major General Kawaguchi was still immersed in the dream of killing the new group, the chief of staff came back with a hurried expression. The excitement on his face disappeared and was replaced by a look of solemnity and worry!
"General, half an hour ago was the routine contact time we agreed with the cavalry brigade. However, no matter how we called on the radio, they did not respond... The communications staff found it strange, so he contacted the aviation force to conduct an inspection on the route the cavalry brigade must pass.
Searched, but half an hour later, the air force found nothing!"
"Which stretch of road are they searching for?" Major General Kawaguchi frowned and stared at the map.
"This section is a total of thirty kilometers. The cavalry brigade can climb here even if it climbs. After all, they camped here last night. It is less than ten kilometers away from the section searched by the aviation force. It can be reached in two hours by a quick march, and from dawn
It has been almost five hours now!"
"Something must have happened!" Thinking of the infantry brigade that had just been ambushed and wiped out in the morning, Major General Kawaguchi suddenly had a very bad premonition in his mind.
Then he stared at the map and ordered: "Contact the aviation force to expand the search area, especially the cavalry brigade's station last night. The search must be focused!"
The chief of staff immediately reacted: "General, you are worried that something happened to the cavalry brigade last night!"
"It's very possible!" Major General Kawaguchi affirmed with a stern face.
"Since last night, the cavalry brigade has not sent a telegram. Don't you think it's strange?"
"It's my fault too. There are too many troops participating in this encirclement and suppression. They have been worrying about the Third Battalion being ambushed by the Eighth Route Army all morning, and have ignored the cavalry brigade! Go send a telegram now and find out the cavalry as soon as possible.
The situation of the brigade!”
"Also, I would like to remind the three brigades that have entered the Eighth Route Army base area again to fight steadily and not to go deep alone..."
"If something unexpected happens to the cavalry brigade, then there must be other Eighth Route Army troops in Linfen that we don't know about. The three infantry brigade split into the Eighth Route Army base area. If they are targeted by these mysterious troops, they can kill us quietly.
One cavalry brigade can kill one of our infantry brigade..."
This time the chief of staff went away for nearly half an hour before returning, and rushed directly into the war room.
"General, something happened to the cavalry brigade, right where they were stationed last night!"
"The aviation force found a large number of imperial corpses here. I have sent scouts to check it out. Specific news should come back soon!"
Major General Kawaguchi's brows furrowed into a big "Kuan", and the chief of staff ordered as soon as he finished speaking.
“We can’t wait for concrete news!”
"The cavalry brigade must have been attacked last night and then completely wiped out. Now that so much time has passed, no one knows where the Eighth Route Army that attacked our cavalry brigade is hiding?"
"If my guess is correct, they must be hiding in the path where our three infantry brigades must pass, waiting for them to kill them, and then kill at least one of our infantry brigades."
"You know, after several days of bloody battles, each infantry brigade has lost at least one squadron of troops. In terms of combat effectiveness, it is definitely not as good as our cavalry brigade and two reinforced squadrons!"
The chief of staff asked anxiously: "Then what should we do next?"
"This encirclement and suppression operation is over. A new regiment of reinforcements has arrived. If we continue to fight, we will lose more troops!"
"Order the three infantry brigades that have entered the Eighth Route Army base to retreat quickly and directly withdraw to their own defense lines!"
The chief of staff immediately asked: "What about the second brigade that is heading towards the base of the New Regiment and the First Battalion? They only have one day left to travel from their target, but it will take longer to retreat to Xiangfen County."
Major General Kawaguchi hesitated for a few seconds and then ordered: "Keep moving forward, join the Fifth Brigade, and retreat directly to Linfen City!"
"Your Majesty General, in this case we will only have more than a thousand people here. The real imperial army does not even have a thousand people. Half of them are wounded soldiers and technical troops. Isn't it too dangerous... You know, the Eighth Route Army
If you can capture Xiangfen County once, you can definitely capture Xiangfen County the second time!"
"Now that their reinforcements have arrived, and you, the brigade commander, are in the city again, Xiangfen County is a big fat piece of meat for them!"
Major General Kawaguchi, who had never considered his own safety, was startled at first, and then large beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
He had just been promoted to major general and became the leader of the mixed brigade in his own right. According to this development process, the future is definitely bright. If he really died here, it would be a shame. Major General Kawaguchi would not accept it no matter what.
He immediately made a decision: "Retract the order just now and let the second largest group retreat to Xiangfen County. After all the troops are safe, a garrison brigade will be left in Xiangfen County and the rest will follow me back to Linfen!"
"Finally, contact the three nearby counties and ask them to withdraw all three mobile troops sent from the city."
"None of our infantry or cavalry brigade can match their reinforcements, let alone the mobile troops composed of garrison troops!"
After giving orders to several main battalions, Wang Ping stared at the battle map, thinking about whether there were any fighter opportunities that he could seize, so as to kill the Japanese and puppet troops as much as possible and weaken the strength of the Japanese and puppet troops in Linfen.
At this moment, the communications staff officer and Jin Kai walked in at the same time, with very ugly expressions on their faces.
"Captain, you were right. The little devil has become alert to our actions."
"The three infantry brigades that entered our base area just now suddenly turned around and retreated. Fortunately, we gave the three battalions an order to stop them in advance, so we didn't let those Japs withdraw from the base area..."
The most worrying thing happened. In order to seize the supplies and ammunition from Linfen Railway Station, although this order would definitely bring heavy casualties to the three battalions, he still gritted his teeth and ordered: "Give the three battalion commanders an order to let them
You must carry out the order and drag these little devils until tomorrow morning no matter what the cost!"
