"Reporting to your Excellency, the Select Man Squadron was attacked by the Chinese outside the city. Captain Select Man Squadron requested reinforcements."
In the command room of the 11th Japanese Company, a Japanese communications soldier hurriedly reported to Colonel Kumagawa about the attack on the Chosen Man Squadron.
"Nani?"
Colonel Kumagawa was surprised, because the Male Selection Squadron and the Imperial Association Army had only been out for a long time before they were attacked?
Of course, it was undeniable that he did hear the gunfire outside the city. Judging from the sound, it should be four or five kilometers away from Feicheng.
"Baga, these Chinese are getting more and more arrogant. They dare to attack the imperial army under their noses."
Xiong Chuan cursed and looked very angry.
But after several defeats in a row, he became less and less confident.
Therefore, he did not dare to order reinforcements immediately. Instead, he asked the communications soldier to tell the Select Man Squadron to hold on a little longer, while he hung up the phone directly to the headquarters of the Fifth Division.
The call was answered by a secretary from the headquarters. He heard that something had happened in Feicheng, so he quickly transferred the call to Itahashi Seishiro's office.
When Banheng Zhengshiro heard that the imperial army was attacked outside Feicheng, he had almost the same expression as the old Japanese soldier Xiongchuan.
Banheng Seishiro was surprised, because Feicheng was in the hinterland of the imperial army, not on the front line. Although he has not stationed troops in Dongping County yet, there are many strongholds of the Imperial Army and the Imperial Association Army along the way from Dongping County to Feicheng.
Even Seishiro Itahashi thought it was a small group of Eighth Route guerrillas who did it. After all, these guerrillas are so elusive that it is very troublesome.
But when he thought about it again, he felt something was wrong. The people he sent in Wudaogou did not find the enemy troops, but only saw traces of trucks from north to south.
He thought that the troops of the 56th Army should have returned to Jining, but now it seems that this information may not be accurate. If they can't protect them, the other party will attack him from east to west, and then rush to Feicheng.
"Baga, the Chinese are so audacious. They were not satisfied with taking Dongping County and went to Feicheng again."
Thinking of this, Banheng Zhengshiro quickly ordered Xiong Chuan: "Let the imperial army outside the city find a way to break out on their own. The Chinese army outside your city is most likely the one that attacked Dongping County. This is a fifty-sixth army The mysterious unit of the Chinese army has very strong combat capabilities. You must be careful. As long as you don't leave the city, the Chinese can't do anything to you.
And if those Chinese appear under your city, report it to me immediately. As long as you hold them back, I will immediately send troops to reinforce you. Hum hum, this time, we will make sure that these stupid Chinese people never come back. Hahaha! "
Itahashi Seishiro laughed, and there was a reason why he was so confident. Because the troops he sent, after failing to find the mysterious troops hidden in Wudaogou, quickly divided into two groups, one to attack the forward positions of the 56th Army, and the other to attack the forward positions of the 55th Army. position.
Of course, it was all a feint, as his subsequent reinforcements were still on the way. As soon as the reinforcements arrive, the frontline troops can march straight in, defeat the 56th Army and the 55th Bureau, and then approach Xuzhou's last line of defense - the Zaozhuang and Taierzhuang lines.
And as long as we win here, Xuzhou's door will be wide open and there will no longer be any obstacles.
As for the Chinese army that has penetrated into the hinterland of his defense zone, it is completely seeking death. And if he really dares to attack Feicheng, then he will gather his troops to make it impossible for the opponent to come back.
Therefore, at this time, Seishiro Itahashi was full of confidence, and he just hoped that the other party would not come and leave with a feint.
"Hi!"
At the same time, Xiong Chuan bowed and responded on the other side of the phone, and then issued an order for the Male Selection Squadron to break out on their own, while the four gates of Feicheng were quickly closed and no one was allowed in or out.
Naturally, the little devil's actions could not escape Duanwu's eyes. Duanwu and Ma Ping'an had been standing on the platform behind the third floor of Osmanthus Tower, staring at the Japs' headquarters.
When four Japanese messengers rode toward the four city gates, Duanwu knew that his plan had failed. The little devil will not go out of the city to rescue, but will close the city gate and hold on.
Duanwu quickly returned indoors to send electricity to Sun Shiyu, telling him that the Japs would no longer leave the city and that a quick victory was needed. He also asked Sun Shiyu to tell Zhao Weidong that the cavalry was preparing to attack. When Lao Snoring and his men captured the South City Gate, they Rush over quickly.
This was very important. If the cavalry charge was not fast enough, the thirty or so soldiers that Lao Snoring brought in would not be able to hold on for long. He did not want his spy battalion commander to die like this.
They were ready here, but on the other side, Ma Pingan had already gone downstairs to tell his people to cooperate with Lao Snoring.
Although the underground party does not have many lurking people in the city, there are still a dozen people who can shoot. What's more, the Huaibei guerrillas are also here. But they did not enter the city, but lay in ambush outside the north of Feicheng.
Obviously, Ma Ping'an brought people to pick up bargains. He guessed Dragon Boat Festival's intention and knew he was going to attack Feicheng. Although the overall strength of the Huaibei guerrillas is average, it is difficult to win on the frontal battlefield. However, hiding outside the city and picking up bargains is more than enough.
Moreover, he had asked Duanwu before if there was an ambush from the independent regiment outside the North Gate.
Duanwu said no. After all, blocking the enemy's retreat is a taboo in siege.
Because if the enemy's retreat is also blocked, then the enemy will have only one way left, and that is to fight you desperately.
Therefore, from ancient times to the present, in all siege battles, the enemy in the city will leave a city gate as a retreat.
Of course, unless you have enough troops to wipe out all the defenders in the city, or you don't want to let any enemy go.
But for the Dragon Boat Festival, this would be very uneconomical. What he wants is to destroy the enemy, not to fight the enemy to death.
But this was taken advantage of by Ma Ping'an, who set up an ambush outside the North City Gate to ambush the Japanese who escaped from the city.
The Japs will definitely be in a panic at that time. Even if there are few guerrillas with good marksmanship, they can still kill dozens of Japs. Then the weapons and equipment on these dozens of devils all belong to the guerrillas.
Therefore, Comrade Lao Ma is not tactful. It has become his daily operation to pick up equipment behind Duanwu.
So precisely because of this, can Lao Ma not work hard at this time? Even if there were not many comrades in the city, he would pull out a dozen of them to follow the spy battalion to seize the south gate. Then, hehe, let’s ask for benefits from the Dragon Boat Festival.
Do you watch Dragon Boat Festival Brothers? I created the radio station, I provided the intelligence, and I also created the people. Can you have the nerve to let me go back empty-handed? .
