The headquarters of the 5th Brigade of the Japanese Army.

The fierce sound of gunfire resounded around the devil's headquarters, and the devil's communication soldiers ran back and forth and were busy.

Kazuo Kimura held the binoculars and kept his eyes fixed on the frontline positions where the battle was fierce.

Just when the two armies on the front line were in full swing, suddenly, a fierce artillery bombardment was heard from the rear of Kazuo Kimura.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

Hearing the sound of the cannon, Kazuo Kimura couldn't help but tremble, and his expression changed greatly, looking shocked.

He was shocked and trembling not because he was afraid of any guns, but because of the sudden changes on the battlefield that made Kazuo Kimura afraid.

Soon, several devil communication soldiers ran over one after another.

"Report to the general, an armored unit of the security regiment suddenly launched a surprise attack on the rear positions of our department, and our logistics troops and heavy artillery units suffered heavy deaths!"

"Report to the general, the main force of the security regiment broke through our forward position, and the soldiers in the forward position suffered heavy casualties, and all the positions fell into the hands of the security regiment!"

"Report to the general, the third brigade of the 68th Wing and the Sichuan army are fighting fiercely, the captain is broken, and the squadrons have suffered heavy casualties!"

"Report to the general, the 25th Cavalry Wing, as well as the armored brigade, which reinforced our department, were attacked and intercepted by Shina bombers on the way."

……

After listening to all the information reported by the communication soldiers, Kimura Kazuo's body trembled again, and then, his legs went weak and took two steps back.

"General, General!!"

The devil officers next to him supported Kazuo Kimura, whose body was trembling.

This time his body trembled, he realized the predicament of the 5th Brigade and began to fear the security regiment.

The logistics troops and heavy artillery units have been killed, how can he fight this battle?

Kazuo Kimura roared angrily: "Yaga Yalu, did the armored unit of the security regiment fall from the sky?" Our scouts didn't even notice that this force was coming back behind us! ”

"Idiots, just a bunch of idiots!"

Kazuo Kimura knew that chagrin and anger were useless at this time, and what he should think about was how to get out of danger.

The current situation of the 5th Brigade can be said to be in a desperate situation.

The Devil's reinforcements were intercepted and blocked by the flying squadron, and the security regiment attacked at the same time, causing the 5th Brigade to be attacked on the back.

In this situation, even if the 5th Brigade wants to break through, I am afraid it will be very difficult.

"General, what should we do, do we gather forces for a breakthrough?" The devil counselor asked Kazuo Kimura.

"Our 5th Brigade, defeat is ......"

Kazuo Kimura shook his head helplessly, looking depressed and depressed like a newly castrated male dog.

After thinking about it for a moment, Kazuo Kimura walked into the headquarters with several devil officers to discuss how to break through.

……

Li Hong observed the battle situation on the front line for a while, then returned to the headquarters and spread out a map to check it.

Just now, Xing Dagang had already sent a telegram to report on the battle situation, and the armored battalion and infantry battalion had annihilated the devil's logistics unit and heavy artillery unit.

According to the analysis of the current battle situation, the reinforcements of the 5th Brigade of the Devil have been intercepted and cut off by the flying squadron.

At the same time, the 5th Brigade was faced with the dilemma of being flanked by the front and rear of the Security Regiment, and it can be said that the 5th Brigade was bound to lose.

It's just that Li Hong didn't just want to crush the 5th Brigade, his purpose was to completely annihilate all the enemies of this brigade.

It is not an easy thing at all to completely annihilate the Kimura brigade.

Li Hong estimated the combat effectiveness and combat numbers of the 5th Brigade, the Devil Wing and the brigade command center were still there, and the enemy still had at least more than 1,500 combat soldiers.

These more than 1,500 little devils are not weak in combat, and the devils also have a lot of grenadiers and mortars.

With the current enemy's combat effectiveness, if Li Hong orders his troops to charge and press on all fronts, the casualties of the troops will be much greater, and Li Hong will definitely not fight such a battle if he kills 1,000 enemies and loses 800 himself.

Another point is that the little devil commanders are not all stupid pigs, knowing that the troops are in a desperate situation, they will definitely not sit idly by, and will definitely break through.

Li Hong lit a cigarette, his eyes carefully stared at the terrain on the map, and his mind was empathetic.

If he is a devil commander and has no way to retreat before and after being attacked by the enemy, then where will the enemy choose as a breakthrough to break through?

Li Hong's mind was running quickly, and after thinking about it, suddenly, he hurriedly ran out of the headquarters with a telescope.

He held up his binoculars and cast his gaze on a barren ridge on the flank.

The barren ridge is bare, there are no trees or plants, and more importantly, there is an unobstructed mountain road at the back of the mountain.

As long as the little devil commander is not a stupid pig, he will definitely break through from the barren mountains and finally escape from the mountain road.

Thinking about this, Li Hong called the communication soldier.

"Signal Corps, order all units to suspend the attack, the artillery will continue to carry out artillery bombardment, and the fourth and fifth battalions will each send two companies out, with some more machine guns!"

"Yes, Tuanza!"

The communications corps received orders and returned to the headquarters.

As soon as the order was delivered, the battalions of the security regiment suspended the attack, the officers and men hid in the bunker fortifications, and the artillery began to cover it with artillery fire.

After less than 10 minutes, the officers and men of the four companies were assembled.

These four companies are fully organized and have nearly 500 personnel.

Li Hong didn't say anything, and immediately led his troops to quickly seize the mountain range two kilometers away.

He asked the troops to suspend the attack, because he didn't want to force the enemy into a hurry, and the dog would bite people if he was in a hurry.

What's more, there are more than 1,500 little devils, and if you really want to drive the little devils completely crazy, the combat effectiveness of the enemy's outbreak is very terrifying.

As soon as the troops stopped charging, they could smoothly lead the little devil troops to the other side of the mountain.

There is no shelter on the mountain, as long as the security regiment seizes the commanding heights, shooting the enemy from a high position is like shooting a live target.

Li Hong thought in advance of where the enemy would break through, and the commanders of the devil's command immediately thought of breaking through from the side of the mountain.

Soon, Kazuo Kimura ordered the troops to shrink their forces, and all the squadrons of devils who could withdraw from the battle withdrew from the battle.

Kazuo Kimura regrouped nearly 1,000 elite soldiers and prepared to break out from the mountains.

"General, the offensive of the various departments of the security regiment seems to have weakened." The devil's staff officer said a word next to him.

"The offensive of the security regiment has become weaker, so that it is just convenient for our troops to break through." Kazuo Kimura didn't think much about it, and he was a little happy in his heart.

The devil's staff officer frowned and thought about it, and reminded Kazuo Kimura: "General, Li Hong has always been scheming and cowering, and it is not the combat style of the security regiment at all, could it be that Li Hong has any conspiracy?" ”

"In this case, do we have a way out for our 5th Brigade to retreat except to break through?"

After Kazuo Kimura finished speaking, he waved his hand and ordered the troops to break through to the mountain movement.
