Chapter 406: Costume Change
Zhao Gang and the others nodded when they heard this, expressing their approval!
Therefore, after Li Yunlong withdrew the main force to the base area, he seized the time to rest and recuperate and train the troops!
At this time, Naosaburo Okabe, who was also the commander of the First Army of the Devils, had already received an urgent call from Taro Miyano.
Nakajo Mountain Frontline Devil Command!
Naosaburo Okabe pinched the telegram with a gloomy expression. The 20,000 elite devil troops were annihilated by Li Yunlong's troops, which made Okabe Naosaburo unbelievable. Until now, he had been holding the telegram for a full ten minutes, and Naosaburo Okabe still refused to believe it.
"Your Excellency, Commander, the inferior post has sent another report to the Chief of Staff, and the Chief of Staff has called back that General Haruki Fujimoto's troops have been completely annihilated. Moreover, it is impossible to contact General Fujimoto Haruki's radio station, and it is estimated that nine times out of ten, the imperial army commanded by General Fujimoto has been wiped out in Xiaogushan. Jitaro Kawaguchi, the devil counselor on duty, whispered to Naosaburo Okabe.
Okabe Naosaburo smiled bitterly, waved his hand and said, "I didn't expect that a brigade and two flying teams were sent back to support General Fujimoto's troops. But it was still defused by the independent brigade troops commanded by Li Yunlong! It's ridiculous! ”。
"This is not the fault of Your Excellency the Commander, to be honest, Your Excellency the Commander, Li Yunlong's troops are now extremely powerful. The Hengshan area it occupies is all over the mountainous area, and the terrain of its base is familiar. Our surprise attack force hastily killed the base of the Hengshan Independent Brigade, but it was still attacked by the other party's reinforcements, which was also a helpless thing. At that time, Li Yunlong's troops were all cavalry, and they were infantry when they dismounted, and in the face of the main force of the independent brigade with strong mobility to reinforce the main force, we did not expect that Pingxingguan would be quickly recaptured by the main force of the independent brigade to reinforce it! In this way, if you are not careful, you will lose all the games! Jitaro Kawaguchi also said with a wry smile.
Okabe Naosaburo got up, walked to the side of the map placed by the headquarters, looked at the huge map and pondered, "Now Li Yunlong's troops occupy the Hengshan area, where there are many high mountains, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Jinlongxia Canyon Valley, Cuiping Peak, Tianfeng Ridge, Yunge Hongqiao and other places are all dangerous points! It is easy to defend and difficult to attack, even if the troops under the command of General Fujimoto capture the mouth of the Jinlong Gorge, the few strongholds behind it will not be able to be defeated! It's too narrow, easy to defend and hard to attack! ”
"Your Excellency Commander, the 20,000 elite of the imperial army has been wiped out, and in a short period of time, we have no way to mobilize heavy troops to continue attacking Hengshan! What to do? Jitaro Kawaguchi said in a condensed voice.
Jitaro Kawaguchi also did not expect that the Japanese army commanded by Haruki Fujimoto would be wiped out so quickly, so that now, when he learned the news of the total annihilation of the Japanese army under Haruki Fujimoto, Jitaro Kawaguchi, who was confident that he had good staff skills, also felt very tricky.
"Now that most of the main forces of our First Army have been concentrated here, the war will not end in a short period of time, and it is impossible to draw troops north! Now, Datong urgently needs to send troops to garrison, and it has even shared our small number of regular army troops! There is no other way, but to follow Taro Miyano's method, first hold on to the towns for the time being, and wait for the war here to end! Our forces are already starting to get nervous! Kawaguchi-san! Naosaburo Okabe smiled helplessly and pointed to the map.
Jitaro Kawaguchi was also quite helpless and said: "Your Excellency, Commander, I also feel that this is the case!" ”。
"Call back Taiyuan and let General Miyano do it himself! Tell General Miyano that before the battle here in Zhongtiao Mountain is over, we can't launch an attack on Li Yunlong's headquarters in Hengshan anymore, we don't have enough troops, and we can't kill too many troops! ”
Naosaburo Okabe waved his hand and commanded Jitaro Kawaguchi!
Jitaro Kawaguchi paused heavily and said, "Hai, Your Excellency Commander, obey your orders!" ”。 Beauty Nest
Without waiting for Jitaro Kawaguchi to leave, a devil staff officer from the devil communication office on the side of the command headquarters walked quickly, and said rightly: "Report to Your Excellency Commander, call from Beiping!" ”。
Okabe Naosaburo was a little puzzled, at this time, Beiping should have known the news that Haruki Fujimoto's troops were completely annihilated by Li Yunlong's troops, could it be that the First Army sent troops north to continue to attack Li Yunlong's troops?
Just after reading the telegram, Okabe Naosaburo sighed and smiled bitterly, and then said to Jitaro Kawaguchi: "His Excellency General Tada has been dismissed by His Majesty and has recently withdrawn to the mainland!" ”。
"Nani? Is this okay? Jitaro Kawaguchi said in a low voice, feeling very surprised!
Okabe Naosaburo waved his hand and said: "This is also a way to do it, if Your Excellency the General doesn't leave, sooner or later he will be dismissed!" The North China Front has lost so many elite troops, His Excellency the General is indeed responsible, and judging from the number of troops lost, it has been the most time His Majesty has endured until now! Forget it, we can't help it. Kawaguchi-san, in my personal name, you send a report to Your Excellency the General, saying that the Empire will not forget the merits of Your Excellency! ”。
"Yes, Your Excellency, Commander!" Jitaro Kawaguchi was quite helpless, so he could only leave with a wry smile and leave to send someone to send a report.
And Okabe Naosaburo looked at the map silently, Li Yunlong's troops had grown stronger, and the 20,000 elite Japanese troops were unable to defeat the troops of the independent brigade.
At this time, Naosaburo Okabe could only hold back his anger and wait until the end of the battle on Nakajo Mountain!
And in Taiyuan City, Taro Miyano received a call back from Naosaburo Okabe, and he was also silent!
"Order the Imperial Association Army and the Imperial Army of more than 2,000 people who retreated to Fanzhi to defend Fanzhi! Without an order, you must not send troops to the east without authorization! Taro Miyano ordered again to Jino Okada, the staff officer on duty.
Okada Jino Tonshi stood up and said, "Hay, Your Excellency Chief of Staff!" ", immediately left and sent someone to send a report to the devil of Fanzhi!
Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang, who had already withdrawn to the base area for a meeting, climbed to the top of Cuiping Peak!
"Lao Zhao, according to the telegram of the three regiments of the Ping-type Guanxiguan position, the devils and the Imperial Association army that have advanced eastward to reinforce have completely retreated to Fanzhi and are no longer within the firepower of the blocking troops in the Xiguan position! It seems that the devil has no intention of continuing to attack! We can take a break for a while! Li Yunlong smiled at Zhao Gang!
Zhao Gang smiled: "You Lao Li played well!" At least the old devil Naosaburo Okabe has understood that there are no two divisions in the future, and if you want to besiege our base again, you want to think beautifully! Hahaha! ”。
"But the little devil will not give up, and next, we are still under a lot of pressure!" Li Yunlong said in a condensed voice.
Seeing this, Zhao Gang bowed his head and said: "Lao Li, according to your consideration when you had a meeting, once Okabe Naosaburo ends the war in the south, the devil's heavy troops will inevitably be transferred north!" When the time comes, we will be even more stressed! However, the blueprints for the AK assault rifle you gave me earlier can already produce a thousand units per month! By the time Okabe Naosaburo sends troops to re-establish Hengshan, all brigades should have completed their redressing! ”。
