Time passed quietly, and soon it was midnight.

Okamura had a late night snack in the restaurant and hurried back to the war room.

The old devil decided not to sleep tonight, because tonight's military operation will determine whether or not several main regiments of the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army can be completely annihilated, especially the independent regiment.

Seeing Okamura Ninji, Miyano Michiichi hurriedly caught up.

"Your Excellency, Commander." Miyano said with a pause, "The 26th Division intercepted and killed at least 30 small units of the Eighth Route Army, and completely annihilated at least 15 of them, and the rest were all heavily damaged!" ”

"The specific results are still being counted, but at least thousands of enemies have been annihilated!"

"The 37th Division also intercepted and killed at least 40 small units of the Eighth Route Army, completely annihilated at least 10 of them, and severely damaged at least 20 of them."

"There are at least nearly a thousand enemies annihilated!"

Okamura Ningji frowned slightly: "So, there are still many Eighth Route Army who broke through the blockade line and ran away?" ”

"Ahem." Miyano Dao coughed lightly, with an embarrassed look on his face, and said, "The main thing is that the 26th Division has transferred an infantry wing back to defend Taiyuan, and the 37th Division originally only had two wings, and two infantry brigades were also dispatched to help Yuci, so the blockade line was not as tight as it used to be." ”

"Forget it, these two regiments of the 386 Brigade have already suffered heavy losses." Okamura Ninji waved his hand and said, "So, is the whereabouts of the Independent Regiment confirmed?" ”

"It's decided." Miyano Michiichi said with certainty, "I really went to Lingjing Township!" ”

"Really went to Lingjing Township?!" Okamura Ninji's face sank, and he said, "What about the two brigades of the 8th Brigade?" Is the mouth of Lingjing Township blocked? ”

Miyano Michiichi hurriedly said, "It should be soon." ”

"Should it be soon?" Okamura Ninji's face fell, "It's just not yet?" ”

Miyano Michichi smiled bitterly: "Because the mountain road is too rugged and difficult to navigate, and it is night, the speed of these two infantry brigades of the 8th Brigade is a little slower, but it is ......."

Before the words fell, Tsuneo Nishino, a communications staff officer, hurried in.

"Your Excellency, Commander, Chief of Staff!" Tsuneo Nishino said, "The 35th and 36th Independent Infantry Brigades belonging to the 8th Independent Mixed Brigade have arrived in Lingjing Township, but they are ......."

Miyano Michi's heart jumped, and he said hurriedly: "But what? ”

Tsuneo Nishino said in a deep voice: "However, the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army has already passed through Lingjing Township one step ahead!" ”

"Nani? The Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army has passed through Lingjing Township? Michichi Miyano lost his voice and said, "How is it possible?" How could they march so fast? ”

"Nothing is impossible!" Okamura Ningji snorted and said, "Order, the 108th Infantry Brigade immediately abandons its heavy equipment and goes to the area of Xie Chou Township and Xiyan Town to intercept it at a forced marching speed!" ”

"No matter what, the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army must be blocked in the line of Xie Chou Township and Xiyan Town!"

"Order again, the 35th and 36th Independent Infantry Brigades bite the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army from behind!"

"Hello!" Tsuneo Nishino slammed his head and hurried back to the Telecommunications Division to give orders.

"Yaga!" Okamura Ningji's gaze returned to the battle map, and he said with a frown, "How did the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army accurately find the gap between Xiyan Town and Xie Sorrow Township?" ”

"What Your Excellency Commander said is very true." Miyano Michiichi said with deep understanding, "If it is simply because the northeast corner is in the middle of the 26th Division and the 110th Division, then the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army should choose Yanggong Township, which is located in the middle, rather than Xiyan Town and Jiechou Township, which are located relatively south." ”

"yes." Okamura Ninji frowned and said, "The reaction of the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army, as if they were in command of the entire operation of the Imperial Army, is really incomprehensible!" ”

Miyano Michiichi's face changed slightly, and he lowered his voice and said, "Your Excellency Commander, are you ......suspicious?"

"Oh, that's not what I meant." Okamura Ningji hurriedly waved his hand and said, "There can't be a traitor in the headquarters, this should be some unknown means of the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army, right?" ”

……

On the rugged mountain road to relieve the sorrow.

Wang Yan and Wei Dayong and Wang Gensheng were running at a high speed halfway up the mountain.

In the valley at the foot of their mountain, a large Japanese army was marching forward with torches.

Wang Gensheng was so tired that he was out of breath, and ran a few steps to catch up with Wei Dayong: "Monk, it's your turn to carry it again!" ”

"You've been carrying it for a long time, and you're going to change it?" Wei Dayong glared at him and said, "Believe it or not, I beat you?" ”

"Captain, you give us a review." Wang Gensheng asked Wang Yan for help with a bitter face, "I've been carrying half a night, the monk is too not a thing!" ”

"Monk!" Wang Yan really couldn't stand it anymore, "It's time for you to carry it." ”

Wei Dayong sighed, and reluctantly took the walkie-talkie.

Wang Gensheng lost the burden of walkie-talkies, and his steps became a lot brisker.

even has the mood to hum a paragraph: "In this life, people are just ditches and hurdles, don't be a slave of a monk, don't be a tired ghost, lalala...... Hey! ”

Wei Dayong said angrily: "What's wrong again? ”

Wang Gensheng shouted in a low voice: "Captain, the devil seems to be speeding up again!" ”

"Huh?" Wang Yan hurriedly looked down, only to see that the devil who was still going with them just now had already run to the front.

Wang Yan guessed the reason at once, and said with a dark face: "The devils must have left all their heavy equipment, otherwise they would never have run so fast!" ”

"What can I do?" Wei Dayong asked with a gasp.

Wang Yan said in a deep voice: "At this rate, the main force of the regiment is likely to collide head-on with the devil in the hometown of Xie Sorrow, so I have to notify the regiment commander quickly, or continue to speed up, or change directions!" ”

At that moment, Wang Yan asked Wei Dayong to put down the walkie-talkie and turn it on.

"Dong Yu Dong Yu, Dong Yu Yu Dong Yu, Dong Yu

After a while, Li Yunlong's panting voice came: "Dong Yu received it, please tell me about it!" ”

Wang Yan said in a deep voice: "Regiment commander, the devil suddenly accelerated the speed of the march, it is estimated that he has left the heavy equipment, according to the current speed, the main force of the regiment is likely to encounter the devil head-on in the hometown of the sorrow, so now we have only two choices, or speed up and rush to the devil in front of the hometown to pass the sorrow, or change the direction." ”

Li Yunlong said: "It is estimated that it will not work to change directions, the 8th Brigade of the devils has been biting behind our butts, so even if we change directions, the devils in front will immediately change directions." ”

Wang Yan said in a deep voice: "Then we can only continue to accelerate!" ”

"I see, your wolf fang team continues to watch!" After Li Yunlong finished speaking, he interrupted the communication.

Hanging up the intercom, Wang Yan pondered for a moment and then said, "No, we have to find a way to drag the devil." ”

"What, us?" Wang Gensheng was dumbfounded and said, "Captain, there are only three of us, dragging thousands of devils?" ”
