Chapter 393: A Heaven-Sent Opportunity?

Li Hong's security regiment has been creating myths on the battlefield, and if Kikuta Maojiro continues to fight with the security regiment, the even more surprising catastrophe will be waiting for him later.

At this time, a devil Shaozo standing next to Kikuta Maojiro proposed to retreat.

"Your Excellency, the firepower of the security regiment is too fierce, we have already suffered nearly a brigade of casualties, and half of our combat vehicles have been destroyed, if we continue to fight, I am afraid that the casualties of our wing will be even more heavy......"

Kikuta Maojiro said angrily: "Baga, we have lost our troops and generals and have not even broken through the front line position of the security regiment, if we retreat like this, wouldn't it be a great shame." ”

The devil Shaozuo continued to persuade: "Captain, the front-line soldiers are demoralized, and they can't gather troops to attack at all, so it's better to wait for the front-line troops to withdraw and repair, and it's not too late for us to gather troops to fight again......"

Kikuta Maojiro thought quickly for a few seconds, then nodded, agreeing with the suggestion of the devil Shaozo.

"Signal soldiers, order the front-line soldiers to retreat and come down for rest."

"Hayi!"

The devil communication soldier answered, and then ran to the headquarters to pick up the phone to inform the devil combat troops on the front line.

After a few minutes, the little devils attacking from the front received an order to retreat.

"Retreat everyone, quick, turn into !!"

When the devil soldiers heard the commander's order, five or six chariots hurriedly turned around and withdrew, and the rest of the devil infantry also fled back.

In order to cover the retreat of the front-line troops, the artillery of the 40th Wing of the Devil opened fire to suppress the soldiers of the Security Regiment under the trenches.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

Explosions sounded continuously.

Countless shells fell around the position of the security regiment, and the shells exploded one after another, and the officers and men of the security regiment could not chase and kill the evacuated little devils at all.

The little devils fled quickly, and they used their strength to escape from the battlefield.

After a while, all the devil attack troops ran away, leaving seven or eight hundred devil corpses on the frontline position.

Some of the devil soldiers were injured and could not evacuate the battlefield, and the enemy could only scream in despair on the ground.

"Baga, help, come and save me......"

"Ahh......h

The fate of these wounded little devils was very miserable, and a wave of 105-mm shells bombarded down, completely blowing up the wounded devil soldiers into a pulp of minced meat.

……

After the withdrawal of the little devil's front-line troops, about half an hour later, the vanguard of the 5th Division of the Japanese Army rushed to the outside of Nanguan County ahead of schedule.

The vanguard of the 5th Division was the 9th Brigade of the Japanese Army, the 11th Infantry Wing, and an armored squadron, and the 9th Brigade had the 41st Infantry Wing and the 11th Infantry Wing.

In order to annihilate the security regiment and take revenge, Seishiro Itagaki personally led the leading troops into the battle this time.

This time, the security regiment was besieged in Nanguan County, and for the old devil of Itagaki, this was simply a godsend to eliminate the security regiment.

Originally, the 5th Division dispatched the entire 9th Brigade, and according to the previous marching speed, it would take the 9th Brigade of the Devils to arrive at noon.

However, the old devil of Itagaki was impatient to fight with the security regiment, so he could only lead the fastest mobile troops to Nanguan County.

As soon as the 11th Wing of the 5th Division arrived in Nanguan County, before it had time to be stationed, Seishiro Itagaki hurriedly went to meet the commander of the 10th Division of the Japanese Army, Ryosuke Isotani.

Japanese Army, where the 10th Division was stationed.

Just now, the devil signal corps at the front of the station made a phone call to the division headquarters.

The chief of staff of the devil, Daichi Shinozuka, learned of the arrival of Seishiro Itagaki and immediately ran outside the headquarters to report to Ryosuke Isoya.

"Your Excellency General, the commander of the Itagaki Division is here, and he will be at our headquarters immediately."

"Yaga, I didn't expect this guy Itagaki to come so quickly......"

When Ryosuke Isoya heard that Seishiro Itagaki was coming, his originally gloomy face became even more gloomy.

In fact, what he was most worried about was the arrival of the 5th Division, and the combat effectiveness of the 5th Division was very clear to Ryosuke Isoya.

Once the 5th Division participates in the battle, if Itagaki Laozi is allowed to take the lead, Ryosuke Isoya will be able to regret it.

Ryosuke Isoya said unhappily: "This guy Itagaki has always been on the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and he came to me in person, definitely to compete with us for the main attack right in Nanguan County." ”

Shinozuka thought for a while, and reminded: "General, the main attack task of Nanguan County cannot be given to the 5th Division, otherwise, the immortal merit of annihilating the Security Regiment will fall on the head of the 5th Division." ”

"Yaga, this cunning guy Itagaki will not succeed, no matter what, I, Isoya Ryosuke, will not give up this piece of fat in Nanguan County." Ryosuke Isoya said affirmatively, a sneer rising at the corner of his mouth.

Immediately, Ryosuke Isoya and a group of devil officers in the command went to meet Seishiro Itagaki.

Although, Ryosuke Isoya doesn't like the old devil of Itagaki, but, after all, the two of them don't have any festivals, and the politeness and respect on the surface are also necessary.

"Itagaki-kun, long time no see!"

"Isoya-kun, hard work!"

As soon as Ryosuke Isoya and Seishiro Itagaki met, they saluted each other, and then the two smiled hypocritically.

"Itagaki-kun, let's go, go to my headquarters to talk, let's talk while drinking tea."

"Please, Isotani-kun."

Ryosuke Isoya invited Seishiro Itagaki into the headquarters.

Subsequently, the two knelt on the mat and drank tea, and Ryosuke Isoya deliberately avoided the topic of Nanguan County, and kept saying some nonsense that had nothing to do with the war.

The purpose of coming here is very clear, he doesn't want to listen to nonsense, and directly says the purpose of this trip.

"Isoya-kun, I came to your headquarters and had a reluctant request, I hope you can agree."

"Oh?"

Ryosuke Isoya knew what the other party wanted to say, and deliberately pretended to be confused.

At this time, Ryosuke Isoya was so happy in his heart that Seishiro Itagaki, who was once invincible, actually had a time when he begged him in a low spirit.

Ryosuke Isoya showed a puzzled expression and said, "Itagaki-kun, you and I are both imperial soldiers, and we should help each other, so if you have anything, you might as well say it directly." ”

Itagaki Seishiro drank the tea in the cup and said slowly: "Isotani-kun, you should know that the 5th Division and the Security Regiment have a deep hatred, so I implore you to hand over the main attack of Nanguan County to our 5th Division." ”

"Itagaki-kun, the battle order to attack Nanguan County was issued by the headquarters, if the headquarters does not have an order, I will hand over the attack task to your 5th Division, what can the commander do if he blames it?"

Ryosuke Isoya frowned, with a look of embarrassment, he deliberately moved out of the Japanese army headquarters as a rhetoric and refused Itagaki Seishiro.

Itagaki Seishiro knew that Ryosuke Isoya was a person who was greedy for merit, and the other party refused to agree to the request, just because he was worried that the 5th Division would rob them of the credit of the 10th Division.
