Chapter 196: The Urgent Telegraph Fails

After Li Yunlong led his troops to completely annihilate the headquarters of the 4th Cavalry Brigade of the 3rd Division of the Japanese Army in the area of Awl Mountain, the remaining main force of the 3rd Division under the command of Matsui Shigen, which was rapidly pursuing south from Weijiatun in Baicha Mountain, was on a rapid march.

At the foot of the vast western foot of the Xing'an Mountains, on a mountain road at the foot of the western foothills, Matsui Shigen commanded the remaining devils of the 3rd Division with a gloomy face to march south.

"Your Excellency, General, we have lost contact with the 4th Cavalry Brigade!" When Matsui Ishine frowned, the old devil Kage Satsuaki, the chief of staff of the army, walked to Matsui Ishine's side and said in a low voice.

Matsui Ishine looked at the mighty and elongated Japanese army, and his eyes were dark red when he heard this, "What's the matter?" Didn't our radio station keep in touch with the 4th Cavalry Brigade all the time? Perhaps it was Taketaka Yamato that they had chased to the area of Awl Mountain, where the mountains were sheltered and the radio signal was not good. Let the signal corps continue to contact the 4th Cavalry Brigade, and it should be done soon. ”

"Alright! Your Excellency, General! Ying Zuo Zhenzhao said helplessly, but his right eye kept jumping in his heart, as if something bad was about to happen.

According to an ancient Chinese saying: the left eye jumps wealth, and the right eye jumps disaster. If something bad happens next, I'm afraid it's really bad.

Sure enough, less than five minutes after Ying Zuo Zhenzhao answered, a devil messenger with the army hurriedly flew over, "Report to Your Excellency the General, Chief of Staff, the 4th Cavalry Brigade is in an emergency!" Request reinforcements! ”

"Nani? Taketaka Yamato asks for reinforcements? Did they encounter an ambush? "Matsui Shigen is a snort, won't put it?

And Ying Zuo Zhenzhao couldn't believe it, and then the ancient Chinese saying that he just thought of in his heart, he suddenly felt that it was really a disaster?

Sure enough, Matsui Ishone, who took the telegram handed by the communication soldier, read it for less than half a minute, and handed the telegram in his hand to Kagezo Zhenzhao.

"Eight Geya Road, Yamato Taketaka this waste! Isn't it possible that when chasing through Awl Mountain to the county seat of Weichang, don't you send troops to reconnoiter the terrain along the way? Eight grid tooth road! What does he eat? After Matsui Ishone handed the telegram to Kagesa Zhenzhao, he asked the confidential staff officer not far away to take out the map from his briefcase and put it away, and when he looked at the topographical map of the mountainous area of Awl Mountain, Matsui Ishone immediately scolded.

Kagesa Zhenzhao quickly finished reading it, and also looked at the map that Matsui Shigen had put people open, and he was speechless for a while.

Judging from the map, Awl Mountain is located in the west of Weichang County, and there is a necessary way to enter Weichang County from Awl Mountain. And that road had to pass through a triangle between Awl Mountain, Beacon Hill and another peak.

However, the triangular terrain is roughly surrounded by three mountains and is in the shape of a basin. However, the interior of the basin is still large and the terrain is flat, but it is surrounded by three mountains, and it is easy to be hit by enemy fire from ambushes in the surrounding mountains.

However, judging from the urgent telegram sent by Yamato Taketaka, it is obvious that Yamato Taketaka is eager to chase and kill Li Yunlong's main force to the east, and he should be put on the way.

"Your Excellency, judging from Taketaka Yamato's urgent telegram, they have been deceived. The surviving soldiers in the county town reported the situation to Yamato Taketaka was wrong, and it should be that Li Yunlong commanded the main force to pretend to march east to attack Chifeng, but in fact, he turned back and ambushed around Awl Mountain. Yamato Taketaka was in a hurry to pursue, and only then was he ambushed by Li Yunlong. ”

After a pause, Kagezo Zhenzhao continued to condense: "The 4th Cavalry Brigade is the last cavalry unit of the 3rd Division, and it is quite large. Once Taketaka Yamato's 4th Cavalry Brigade suffered huge losses, it would be too much trouble for us to do the following! Humble suggestion, strictly ordered Yamato Taketaka to stand by for help. Order the Zhang San Battalion, Tang San Battalion, and the Imperial Army of Longhua, which were closest to Awl Mountain, to speed up and go north to reinforce the 4th Cavalry Brigade that was ambushed at Awl Mountain. ”。

"Good! Come! Matsui Ishone's anger had not yet dissipated, but he had to admit that Kagesa Zhenzhao's suggestion was right, so he immediately shouted to a devil staff officer on the side.

The devil staff officer immediately stepped forward and said with a heavy pause: "Your Excellency, General! ”。

"Immediately telegraph to the defenders of Longhua and speed up the pace to the north to reinforce the 4th Cavalry Brigade! Order all the defenders of Longhua to dispatch and temporarily take over the Zhang San Battalion, the Imperial Army of the Tang Third Battalion and the Imperial Allied Army, and after arriving at Awl Mountain, the 4th Cavalry Brigade will be rescued for me at all costs. Hurry up and drop! "000 Literature

Matsui Ishone's face was gloomy and ruthless, but he could only wave his hand and roar.

"Hay, Your Excellency." The devil's staff officer immediately received the order, and then walked away to send a report.

At this time, Ying Zuo Zhenzhao spoke up again: "Your Excellency, General, have you once again asked the Front Army Command to send aviation fighters to reinforce us?" The speed of the fighter is fast, even if the 4th Cavalry Brigade is ambushed at this time, Yamato Taketaka can hold on to help in a short time. The fighters reinforced them, at least they could block the part of Li Yunlong's ambush firepower. ”。

"Yo Xi, Kage Sa-kun's suggestion is good."

Regarding the suggestion of the old devil Kagesa, Matsui Ishine still agrees.

So, Matsui Ishine ordered the devil signal soldiers who came to report the situation with a solemn face: "Immediately send a report to the front army headquarters and request reinforcements from the aviation troops, so that the fighters dispatched by the aviation troops can fly directly over Awl Mountain to provide air support to the 4th Cavalry Brigade." In addition, call back to Taketaka Yamato and tell him to be sure to stand by for help! Reinforcements soon arrived. ”。

"Hay, Your Excellency!" The Devil Messenger was ordered to leave quickly.

Matsui Ishine ordered the rest of the infantry of the Japanese 3rd Division to speed up the march and rush south to the area of Awl Mountain.

It's just that what Matsui Shigen didn't know was that the 4th Brigade of the Devil Cavalry in Awl Mountain had been wiped out, and Li Yunlong and others had already led the main force of the army to attack Chifeng without dragging mud and water.

After receiving the telegram from Matsui Shigen, the Japanese troops in Longhua hurried north, and after meeting with Zhang Sanying, the devil garrison of Tang Sanying, and the Imperial Association Army, they hurried to the area of Awl Mountain.

However, it was not until these devil troops arrived at the area of Awl Mountain that they saw that the triangle surrounded by the main peak of Awl Mountain, Beacon Mountain and another mountain peak was full of the corpses of the devil soldiers of the 4th Brigade of the Japanese Cavalry who had been killed.

In addition, the battlefield was full of war horses killed by artillery fire and bullets, and the captain of the Longhua Devil Garrison Brigade, Kahetaro Shaoza, looked at the miserable battlefield in amazement.

"Yaga! This is the 4th Cavalry Brigade? Check it out now and see if there's anything alive! ”

After coming back to his senses, Kahetaro yelled angrily at the devil soldiers under his opponent who were a little angry.

The devil soldiers who got the order scattered around one by one, carefully inspecting the battlefield of Awl Mountain.

It wasn't until seven or eight minutes later that there were reports of one after another devil soldiers.

"Eight Geya Road, the 4th Cavalry Brigade has been wiped out! More than 3,000 people, and at least 2,000 horses were killed, and the 4th Cavalry Brigade was really gone. Someone will immediately send an urgent telegram to His Excellency General Matsui to inform him of the situation here. Kahetaro Shaozo couldn't help but be surprised, the 4th Cavalry Brigade was completely annihilated.

Looking at the corpses of the 4th Cavalry Brigade in front of him, such as Taketaka Zhangyamato, and other devil officers, Kahetaro waved his hand and ordered the devil communication soldiers on the side.

"Hairy, Captain!"
