"Then we are just going to watch the artillery brigade being wiped out by the Eighth Route Army?" Major General Nakamura knew that the chief of staff was right, but he was not convinced and couldn't help shouting about filial piety.
The chief of staff wanted to answer: "The current brigade headquarters has trouble even protecting itself, let alone reinforcing the artillery brigade." But after thinking about it, he swallowed these words.
The brigade commander was furious, and now he was adding fuel to the fire, seeking death. In this situation, the best solution is to remain silent and let the brigade leader calm down.
As a veteran in the army, Major General Nakamura has rich experience in commanding operations. He must be aware of the current dangerous situation of Nakamura's brigade, but he is just unconvinced.
When he calms down, he will naturally know what to do next. And indeed it is. After ten seconds of questioning, Major General Nakamura spoke again: "Find a way to contact the artillery brigade."
"We really can't defend those artillery pieces. We would rather blow them up than fall into the hands of the Eighth Route Army."
"Immediately contact the troops that have just dispersed and move closer to me immediately. Relying on the circular position that the troops have just repaired, they will turn to defense and wait for reinforcements."
"By holding on until dawn, we will be able to obtain air support, and we will be able to break out of the Eighth Route Army encirclement under the cover of aircraft and withdraw from the battle."
"The Eighth Route Army is defeating our scattered troops one by one."
"The troops must move closer to me as soon as possible. If it's too late, all the troops will be killed by the Eighth Route Army." This time the chief of staff did not refuse the brigade commander's order. After hearing this, he began to arrange the ordering troops.
Major General Nakamura jumped into the nearby trench. This is the outer ring position that the troops repaired before breaking through.
The retreat time was limited, and he would definitely not be able to go to the previous underground headquarters. He could only lead his troops to stay here and hold on.
He raised his telescope, slowly poked his head out of the trench, and looked around. There were figures of the Eighth Route Army fighting with their subordinates in all directions.
The sound of guns and artillery has already rang out. You are among us, and you are among me. It is no longer possible to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy through the sound of crossfire.
When Major General Nakamura's face became more solemn as he looked at it, a staff officer suddenly shouted: "General, the Eighth Route Army defending the junction suddenly launched an attack on us."
"We only have two squadrons left in the rear. They are no match for us. If we don't reinforce the Eighth Route Army, they will come over." Major General Nakamura subconsciously wanted to arrange for a reinforced squadron to go over and block the attack.
The Eighth Route Army defending the junction has just been attacked and must have suffered heavy casualties. Even if they take the initiative to launch a counterattack, they don't have much combat effectiveness. A reinforced squadron is enough to withstand them.
But when the words reached his lips, he swallowed them back. With only one reinforced squadron left, the two artillery brigades were attacked and their destruction was imminent.
The baggage troops were also dragged on the battlefield by the Eighth Route Army and had no time to take care of themselves. All other infantrymen were scattered on the battlefield and fought independently. Even if they gave orders to move closer to the headquarters, very few troops could actually withdraw.
If we really send a strengthened squadron to block the Solitary Regiment, we can only send the first squadron there, and then we will have no one around us.
If the Eighth Route Army touches the headquarters, even one platoon can easily lose their lives.
Major General Nakamura did not dare to take this risk and could only give up the reinforcement plan that had just popped up in his mind. After a few seconds, he spoke again: "Immediately dispatch a reinforced team from the headquarters to intercept."
"Stop the Eighth Route Army's offensive at all costs, and we must hold on until dawn."
"Send someone to urge the troops scattered around us, let them seize the time and move closer to the headquarters immediately."
"The enemy's strength is far beyond our imagination. Only by gathering our scattered forces together can we hold on longer."
"Hurry up, if you don't move closer to me, all the troops will be killed by the Eighth Route Army."... The Eighth Route Army was in front of the enemy headquarters. Kong Jie hurriedly rushed to the enemy headquarters, but it was still too late.
When he walked into the headquarters, he hurriedly asked: "Xiao Huang, how was the decisive battle?" Huang Yu pointed to the battlefield where the exchange of fire was taking place and said: "The only regiment and the four main regiments participating in the encirclement rushed forward."
"The only regiment successfully withstood the Japanese breakout troops and killed more than a thousand little Japanese."
"The 25th Regiment and the Mancheng Garrison Regiment are keeping an eye on the Little Japanese Artillery Brigade and the baggage troops."
"The two sides have been strangled together. The Japanese artillery and the heavy troops are no match. The battle will definitely be over within ten minutes."
"After the Japanese's remaining Qianbao infantry was attacked by our mountain artillery, in order to avoid the artillery fire and reduce losses, they even took the initiative to disperse and retreat."
"I immediately sent out a general attack signal and asked the troops to swarm forward. They used battalions and companies as units to focus on these scattered little devils and defeat them one by one."
"The effect is very good."
"Based on the analysis of the battle reports received so far, six full infantry squads have been wiped out by us."
"There are still several infantry squads that were severely damaged by us."
"Five or six infantry squads were surrounded on the battlefield."
"Kill them all. Except for stragglers, there will no longer be an organized group of Japs on the battlefield."
"Report..." A correspondent suddenly rushed in with a smile on his face. He saw Kong Jie gasping for breath and reported: "Regiment leader, deputy chief of staff..."
"The Mancheng Garrison Regiment and the 25th Regiment defeated the Japanese artillery brigade and the baggage troops."
"The remaining Japanese troops wanted to blow up the artillery and baggage ammunition, but we successfully stopped them. A total of six heavy artillery pieces, eight field guns, and fifty-six carts of various types of ammunition were captured."
"The troops left two main battalions to guard the spoils, while the others continued to attack the Japanese circular position." As soon as the correspondent left, Li Yunlong's loud voice sounded at the door: "Kong Er is stupid..."
"I, Li Yunlong, am back..."
"The ambush battle tonight was so exciting."
"My only regiment killed at least two thousand Kwantung Army..." At this point, Li Yunlong's excited face suddenly flashed a mysterious smile, and continued: "Guess what big fish I caught on the battlefield..."
"I promise to scare you to death..." Kong Jie made a guess as soon as he saw Li Yunlong's reaction. His eyes immediately widened, and he stared at Li Yunlong with disbelief and asked: "You kid can't take down the leader of the Japanese Brigade, can you?" ?" Li Yunlong
"Hehe..." said with a smile.
"You really guessed it right."
"It's also because we, Lao Li, were lucky. He led the troops to attack all the way, and while fighting, he suddenly encountered a hard bone."
"We, Mr. Li, like to chew bones the most. We will rush wherever there are hard bones. In the end, we hit all the way to the headquarters of the Little Japanese Brigade."
"I wanted to capture the little Japanese Major General's brigade commander alive, so I killed him with my own hands."
"By the time I arrived at the battlefield, this old boy had been cut into pieces by the machine gun. I could only get back his command knife and epaulettes." After saying that, he proudly showed off the trophy in his hand to Kong Jie.
