Major General Yamagi was the commander of the 106th Infantry Brigade under the command of the 111th Infantry Division of the Japanese Army.

At this time, the fire in Yangxin City was soaring.

In the thick smoke, the scarlet firelight illuminated almost half of the sky, and it was clearly audible from afar.

Fearing that the 106th Cavalry Wing, which was in the lead, would lose, the mountains kept urging their subordinates to join the march along the way.

Finally, 20 minutes after the Tiger Regiment evacuated Yangxincheng, they successfully arrived outside Yangxincheng.

Looking at the corpses of his own side that were littered all over the ground, mixed with the corpses of some war horses, the mountain land immediately recognized their identities.

106th Cavalry Wing!

He looked at the burning Yangxin County town in front of him with a resentful face, gritted his teeth and said, "Baga! Damn, these damned Shina people! ”

A devil next to him, Da Zuo Dama, came to the mountain and asked, "Your Excellency the brigade commander, what should we do now?" Do you continue to enter the city, or do you report the matter to the division headquarters and wait for the instructions of His Excellency the division commander? ”

Shan Di Yan gritted his teeth and said, "Go on, I'm going to make these damned Shina people pay the price of blood!" ”

The devil Dazuo frowned, and said with a worried expression: "However, Your Excellency the brigade commander, we are only an hour's distance from the 106th Wing of the Imperial Cavalry.

Since this branch of the army was able to completely annihilate the 106th Wing of the Imperial Cavalry in such a short period of time, and even the 106th Wing of the Imperial Cavalry did not even have a chance to report the news, it is enough to see the strength of this branch army!

If we enter the city like this, if we fall into the trap of the Chinese army again and repeat the mistake of the 106th Wing of the Imperial Army's cavalry, we will lose more than we gain! ”

Shan Di's face suddenly became more gloomy, and he said in a cold voice: "Perhaps, this branch of the army has fled out of the city after completely annihilating the 106th Wing of the Imperial Army's cavalry.

Look at the fire in this city, it should be made by this army to destroy the materials that cannot be taken away!

If we stop and delay the fighter, can you afford this responsibility? ”

After a pause, Shan Di Wataru continued: "Moreover, you have also seen that the reason why the 106th Wing of the Imperial Army's cavalry was eliminated was not because of how strong the combat effectiveness of this army was, but because they were eager for quick success and fell into the trap set by the Chinese army in advance!"

Just imagine, as long as the 111th Infantry Brigade of our Imperial Army sets up an ambush circle in advance, it can also destroy the enemy cavalry of the same size or even larger scale at the snap of a finger!

According to intelligence, this Chinese army is only the size of an integrated division, as long as we are a little careful, even if we fall into the trap of the Chinese army, there is nothing to be afraid of!

In terms of positional encounters, our 111th Infantry Brigade is not comparable to the group of fools of the 106th Cavalry Wing! ”

Seeing that the devil Dazuo couldn't dissuade him, he said: "Your Excellency the brigade commander, if you must enter the city, in order to make a fool of yourself, I suggest that you send a reconnaissance force to open the way first!"

In this way, we will not be able to repeat the mistakes of the 106th Cavalry Wing, and at the same time, we will not lose much time! ”

He is not an impulsive idiot, on the contrary, he is not only very good at tactical command, but also very intelligent.

Otherwise, it would not have been possible to defeat several competitors and be promoted to the commander of the 111th Infantry Brigade as a major general.

After thinking about it, Yamagchi Wataru accepted the subordinate's proposal and said, "Iino-kun, your analysis is not unreasonable.

In that case, then this reconnaissance mission will be handed over to your 113th Wing! ”

"Hayi!"

The devil Dazuo paused heavily, and immediately stepped forward, sending a reinforced squadron to cautiously touch the fire-filled Yangxin County in front of him.

Half an hour later, several devil soldiers hurriedly returned from the city and reported loudly to the mountain: "Report to Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, the city is empty, and the Zhina Army should have broken through and fled!" ”

The mountain asked in a deep voice, "You guys, have you scouted carefully?" ”

"Hayi!" The devil captain at the head paused and said: "The lowly rank has done a general search of Yangxin County, and it is basically certain that the city is empty!" ”

"Yaga!" Shandi scolded loudly: "These people must have fled north in the direction of the Yangtze River, and they must not be allowed to cross the river smoothly!"

Pursuit, immediate pursuit! ”

Wing Commander of the 113th Infantry Wing, Kenten Iino hurriedly dissuaded: "Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, no! Not to mention that we don't know where this army is going to cross the river, and whether it can catch up.

To put it simply, if this army has no intention of crossing the river, but regards us as a hunting target, or in other words, intends to destroy us before crossing the river.

Haven't we fallen into his trap by pursuing it so rashly?

Taking a step back, judging from the combat effectiveness that this army has just shown, let alone setting up an ambush circle, even if it encounters it head-on, the 111th Infantry Brigade of our Imperial Army may not be sure of victory!

Especially now, we are marching in a hurry and are not carrying heavy weapons! ”

The mountain man didn't know that Iino Kenten's analysis was very reasonable, but he was very unwilling to say: "Is it possible, just let this branch of the army swagger away?" ”

"No!" Kenten Iino analyzed: "Your Excellency Brigade Commander, if the purpose of this branch army is to cross the river and go north to support the Tiger Bun Regiment, then the problem is actually very easy to solve.

We only need to report the matter and ask the division commander to ask His Excellency the Commander to send a fleet to block the Yangtze River waterway overnight.

Then the conspiracy of this Chinese army will be self-defeating! ”

After a pause, Kenten Iino continued: "And if the purpose of this branch army is not to cross the river and go north, but to carry out a sabotage attack south of the Yangtze River, so as to disperse the forces of the imperial army, so as to achieve the purpose of covering the Tiger Ben Regiment.

Then the problem will be solved even better!

This is the occupied area of the imperial army, we just need to wait quietly, the imperial army is not in a hurry, then it is this and that army that is in a hurry!

As long as it is dawn, the imperial army reconnaissance plane can take off, and at that time, this Chinese army will have nothing to hide!

At that time, with the cooperation of the Imperial Army Air Force, it will be easy for us to destroy this hateful Chinese army!

After all, compared to the night, the combat effectiveness of the imperial army can be better exerted during the day! ”

"Yo Xi!"

Yamagchi Wataru nodded approvingly, and adopted Kenten Iino's opinion.

……

The picture pulls to Xianning, the headquarters of the 106th Division of the Japanese Army.

Because he was worried about the battle situation in Yangxin, after being woken up by his subordinates, Junrokuro Matsuura did not continue to sleep, but accompanied by Chief of Staff Nakagawa Hideyoshi and others, they came to the division headquarters together.

What followed was a long wait.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the door, and the devil officer looked up hurriedly, but saw that a communications staff officer on duty was hurriedly breaking in from outside.

Junrokuro Matsuura asked anxiously, "How's the situation?" ”
