Peers are enemies, and so are colleagues.
Peers cannot compromise with each other because of competition and interests. The same goes for colleagues.
Both Shigeto Chiaki and Namada Nakaichi are serving in Taiwan, and they are both major generals. They only have one chance to be promoted. Therefore, although the two people often interact with each other and invite each other for drinks to connect with each other, in essence, they are eager for the other party to make any major mistakes. , then there will be no one to compete with him when he is promoted to lieutenant general.
So when Namada saw the body of Shigeto Chiaki, he actually wanted to laugh and thought to himself: You also have this day?
But in front of so many of his subordinates, he could not show his joy, but looked very sad. Anyone who saw it would feel that Major General Namada was too emotional, and he would not let go of Major General Shigeto's hand. What a deep feeling he had.
The Japanese soldiers were extremely moved, and some even shed tears.
At this time, Major General Hatada saw that he had finished pretending, and suddenly stood up and said: "The death of Major General Shigeto is a huge loss to our empire. We should uphold Major General Shigeto's legacy and fight the enemy bravely. Long live His Majesty the Emperor!"
"Long Live His Majesty the Emperor!"
"Long live His Majesty the Emperor! Long live!"
···············
Major General Namada used Shigeto's body to boost the morale of his soldiers. Let this group of beasts not lose morale due to the tragic defeat of the Chongteng detachment.
The disastrous defeat of the Chongteng detachment caused great psychological pressure on the Namada detachment. Many Japanese soldiers are discussing whether they will suffer a disastrous defeat like the Chongteng detachment.
And this kind of saying is not only circulated among soldiers, but also some officers think so.
This is very detrimental to this battle. Therefore, the old devil Bo Tian wanted to use Shigeto's death to boost their morale.
He wants his soldiers to fight the enemy like tigers and wolves.
Of course, there's no denying that he's also under a lot of pressure. The Chongteng detachment had more than nine thousand people, but it suffered a devastating defeat.
His Botian detachment only had more than 7,000 people, and including the defeated troops of the Chongteng detachment, there were only less than 9,000 people.
Although these nine thousand people seem to be a lot. But the setback of the Chongteng detachment still stung the old devil.
Because at this time, he didn't even know how many enemies he had. However, the intelligence sent by Commander Matsui Iwane was only that his enemy was Danwu, with the strength of no less than two divisions, and that was it.
However, how did Matsui know that Dragon Boat Festival had no less than two divisions of troops? In fact, these were sent to him by the old Japanese Chongteng before his death.
At that time, Old Japanese Chongteng did not expect that he would die, and he even thought about killing Danwu to exonerate himself. And in order to prove that it was not him who was incompetent but the intelligence was wrong, he deliberately added the strength of these two divisions.
It is understandable that a brigade was attacked by two enemy divisions and suffered heavy casualties.
But who would have thought that this piece of false information would fall into Bo Tian's hands.
The cautious Botian Japs naturally did not dare to venture in again. The strength of the two divisions is enough to cause another tragedy like the Chongteng detachment.
"Report, Suzuki Santaro is back!"
Just when Bo Tian was at a loss as he didn't know the specific deployment of Yushan's troops, a guard reported that the previously missing Suzuki Santaro was back.
"Let him come here!"
The old devil Namada ordered his guards to let Santaro Suzuki come to him.
Suzuki Santaro ran over quickly, and when he saw the Botian Japanese, he bowed and saluted: "Your Excellency, I'm back."
The old devil Hasada was looking at Santaro Suzuki. All the weapons and equipment on Santaro Suzuki were gone, and there were no injuries on his body. This was too abnormal.
If the weapons and equipment were lost, it was because they were captured by Chinese soldiers, but if they escaped unharmed, it was because the information about the Botian detachment was betrayed to the enemy.
According to common sense, soldiers like Santaro Suzuki should be shot immediately.
But at this time, the old devil Botian lacked information. So he could only ask patiently: "Were you captured by the Chinese? How did you come back?"
Suzuki Santaro was so frightened by Old Devil Hasada's question that he trembled all over. Because he knew very well that if Major General Bo Tian knew that he had leaked information to the Chinese, he would definitely kill him alive.
But the fact that he was captured cannot be concealed. So he could only tell it to Major General Bo Tian according to the story Duanwu had compiled for him.
Suzuki Santaro said: I was indeed captured and held captive, but the other party did not hurt me. Instead, let me send a piece of information to Major General Bo Tian. He asked me to tell you that the troops in Yushan are empty. Each of their regiments only has one machine gun, and they use old barrels that can't even kill a bird. They have less than 2,000 troops. Lord Botian can easily capture Yu with the help of the empire's artillery fire. Mountain position.
"Baga, do they think I, Namada Chuichi, am a three-year-old child?"
The old devil Bo Tian was very angry. Because this is obviously false information.
At this time, Suzuki Santaro also said quickly: "Your Excellency, I think so. I saw them digging trenches on their position. There must be at least several thousand people. And this is only a part of them.
Our machine guns are placed everywhere on their positions. There are at least three boxes of grenades per square meter. If we attack rashly, we will definitely suffer huge losses. "
Jaap Botian nodded and said, "You did a very good job. You pretended to be a prisoner, but you found out the real information. Go down!"
"Thank you, thank you, Mr. Botian, thank you!"
Suzuki Santaro was very grateful, and he was very happy to be able to save his life at this time.
The captain of Botian's first regiment, Zhongye Shaofu, spoke at this time: "Your Excellency Botian, what do you think?"
"It turns out that I didn't know what the Chinese people were up to, and their commander was a lunatic. But their clever behavior made me feel that there was nothing terrible about the Dragon Boat Festival.
He was guarding the mountain and tricked us into going up there to die? I think he is daydreaming. Hum! We were ordered to go down and re-defense at the Chongteng detachment’s camp. Chiaki Shigeto still has a way, that place is very good. If he hadn't made such a bold move, I don't think he would have lost so easily.
His third regiment was deceived into the mountains. Although I don’t know what method the other party used. But those people must have been attacked by surprise. They mistakenly believed that Zhong Jiushan had defected to the empire, but they did not expect that Zhong Jiushan was the most venomous snake in the world.
The second regiment of Chongteng detachment also fell into the enemy's trap and was surrounded by heavy enemy troops halfway up the mountain.
The first regiment of the Chongteng detachment was scattered and separated by Zhong Jiushan who pretended to be our army, and the entire army was almost annihilated. However, his co-captain, Matsushita Keiji, was still an amazing general. In that unfavorable situation, he actually broke out with nearly 800 people.
As for the artillery regiment and baggage regiment of the Chongteng detachment, they were all sneak attacked by the enemy's elite.
From the intelligence point of view, this Chinese army on the mountain has many elite troops. They were like sharp daggers, turning the entire Chongteng detachment camp into a mess. The Chongteng detachment was unable to take care of both ends, leading to a great rout.
Therefore, from a geographical point of view, there is no problem with the strategic location chosen by Shigeto. His question was that he was too stupid and believed Zhong Jiushan's lies, which led to this fiasco.
Therefore, we will not repeat the mistakes of the Chongteng detachment. We will build our new defense system based on the Chongteng detachment camp. Coupled with the two armored squadrons of Nagano and Miyamoto, if the Chinese dare to rush down in this area, then we will let them die without a burial place. "
Mr. MCC said: "Your Excellency, your views are great. It's just that we are just defending blindly. How can we defeat Yushan?"
The old devil Botian sneered: "Hahaha, MCC-kun, don't forget that our Empire of Japan has complete air superiority. Let alone a small Yushan. The empire's bombs can be On this land of China, there have been several bombings."
“·················”
The young man from Zhongye was a little speechless and thought to himself: Are you exaggerating a bit? How many more times will it be fried? Once the empire goes bankrupt!
But Mr. MCC couldn't disturb Bo Tian's elegance. After all, Major General Bo Tian was in the mood of bragging.
The troops set off, and Old Japanese Hatada arranged his forward position on Shigeto Chiaki's position.
Of course, this old devil definitely didn't just give an order randomly out of a sudden impulse. Instead, he surveyed the terrain with the help of a telescope, and found that the position of the original Shigeto detachment was very suitable for the Imperial Army's operations.
The camp is located in an open area with strategic depth enough to accommodate the entire Botian detachment. What the Japanese army was least afraid of was fighting on the plains. Because they have absolute firepower and air superiority.
And he brought with him a chariot corps, two chariot squadrons, thirty-two chariots of various types.
These chariots can also form very beneficial support in plain areas. Therefore, he would never allow the tragedy of the Chongteng detachment to happen a second time.
But the most important thing is that Suzuki Santaro's intelligence played a key role. The enemy is showing weakness to himself and tricking himself into going up the mountain, which can only mean that the enemy's troops are insufficient. It poses no threat to the Botian detachment. That's why he boldly pushed the troops five kilometers to the camp of the Chongteng detachment.
Half an hour later, the Botian detachment entered the Chongteng detachment's camp.
At this time, the camp was devastated, and Japanese corpses lay scattered all over the camp.
Some of their bodies were broken by shells, and some had their heads exposed by bullets. Some had bayonets pierced through their chests. Others were beaten to death with heavy objects.
The Japanese soldiers felt their hearts ache when they saw their companions in such miserable condition. He thought to himself: These Chinese people are so shameless. They didn’t even bury the person who killed them.
Because it is conceivable that with so many corpses, there is no telling how long they will have to clean them up. There were also collapsed wooden fences and burned tents with only iron frames left. All these things need to be cleared out.
Trenches buried by the explosion also had to be re-excavated. The tent also needs to be set up again.
This is a very huge project.
At this time, Duanwu, who was standing in the trench and looking through binoculars, giggled. Because the little devil is here again, and he wants to trip over a stone twice.
Xie Jinyuan said from the side: "Tuanzu, are you still smiling? There are so many things waiting for you now, and you can still laugh?"
"well!"
Duanwu let out a depressed sigh, as if there was nothing he could do.
But Xie Jinyuan believed his big-headed ghost. He felt that the group must be brewing some big conspiracy! ...
