"Nani? Matsuki-san, what do you say? We only have less than 700 Imperial Army warriors left? ”

Yoshimoto Shiki listened to Matsuki Sakura's words and was dumbfounded. This, this, how is that possible?

"Hay!"

Matsuki Sakura smiled bitterly: "The siege force of the Independent Brigade is too much, and there is no need for various departments to report, and the humble duty can be heard from the surrounding enemy guns." The incoming separate brigade was at least six thousand people or more, with strong firepower. The squadrons reported that the street fighting fire of the Independent Brigade was very fierce. Most of its vanguard units used submachine guns and light machine guns as close-range fire cover, and rear mortars, possibly captured Imperial grenadiers, as close-range artillery cover, and infantry artillery coordinated to storm the defenders' fortifications in various parts of our neighborhood. ”。

"The independent brigade's street fighting ability is really too strong, and it is tactically skillful and decisive in attack. Although the warriors of the Imperial Army of our brigade are also familiar with street fighting, they can't beat the independent brigade in urban street fighting at night. Therefore, our casualties were very large and very fast, and now they have plummeted to less than 700 imperial troops. Captain! ”

Yoshimoto Shihui's face became gloomy, and from the moment he heard the gunfire to now, the two sides have been fighting fiercely in Huairen for more than twenty minutes.

But Yoshimoto Zhihui didn't expect that his Yoshimoto brigade plus more than 2,000 people from the 324th Regiment of the Imperial Allied Army, with a total of more than 3,000 troops defending a small Huairen county seat. Up to now, the 324th Regiment of the Imperial Alliance Army has been completely wiped out, and only less than 700 troops are left to support him.

"In any case, the remaining forces are fully shrinking and moving closer to the brigade headquarters." Yoshimoto Zhihui gritted his teeth and said, his clenched fist slammed on the table in front of him, smashing Peng Peng.

Matsuki Sakura, who was already a little expressionless, nodded, and until now, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on to the arrival of reinforcements.

Even if the Datong defenders, who were closest to them to the north, went south to take a train to reinforce them, it would take about forty minutes to arrive. And this is still if the railway along the route is still intact, but this is not possible.

The Independent Brigade was able to decide to sneak attack Huairen, and in the face of the possibility that the Japanese army in the direction of Datong might go south for reinforcements, it was impossible not to send guerrillas to pick up some railroad tracks along the way, temporarily blocking the train from Datong southward to transport troops south to reinforce Huairen's devil defenders.

And sure enough, just when the pine tree Sakura thought of this layer, the devil troop transport train that came out of Datong and went south got on the train in the middle of Huairen to Datong. At least three wagons of Japanese troops were thrown out, suffering heavy casualties.

The 313th Wing of the 41st Division of the Japanese Army was responsible for the reinforcements to the south, and its wing commander was fine in the train box. It's just that the train that was braked urgently almost staggered and hit the wall of the box.

"Report to the Wing Commander, the front railway has been cut off by the guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army, and the sappers are currently urgently repairing it!"

Soon, a devil staff officer walked in from outside the box door and urgently reported to the commander of the 313th Wing of the 41st Division, Masuda Kentai Daisa.

The old devil then poked his head out of the box window and looked out, only to see that in the direction of the locomotive, several train cars had fallen on the side of the railway.

"How long will it take to fix it?" Masuda Jiantai's face was gloomy, the guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army cut off the railway, and it seemed that they needed to prevent the imperial army from Datong from going south to reinforce the Huairen defenders.

The devil staff officer who reported said: "Report to the wing commander, I'm afraid it will take twenty minutes!" Moreover, this is the use of all the sappers on my train with the army! ”。

"Baga, hurry up and repair it!" Micro book bar

Masuda Kentai waved his hand, and after ordering the devil staff officer who reported the report, he immediately turned his head and said to the chief of staff of the wing, Kotaro Kusumoto, who was also sitting on the side: "Huairen's Yoshimoto brigade sent several urgent telegrams urging my 313 Wing to speed up and go south to reinforce them. Commander Okabe and General Miyano also sent telegrams one after another, ordering him to arrive at Kaihito within forty minutes no matter what. If we wait on the train for the railroad that was cut off in front of us to be repaired, I am afraid that even if we rush to Huairen County by then, we will only be able to collect the corpses of the Yoshimoto brigade. ”。

"What does the Wing Captain mean?" Kotaro Kusunoki also thought of what Masuda Kentai meant, so he said in a condensed voice.

Masuda Kentai stood up, and then said: "Order all troops, get off the car immediately, and you must march quickly to Huairen!" The sappers continued to repair the railroad tracks damaged by the guerrillas, and if they succeeded, the train began to move south. We couldn't stay on the train. ”。

"Humble approval!" Kusunoki Kotaro said in a heavy voice, this is a thing that there is no way to do.

After all, if there are still railroad tracks in some sections of the road in front of which are picked up by the guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army, and they continue to wait stupidly on the train? This is an impossible thing, the military order is like a mountain, and the 313th Wing cannot be so stupid and wait, so it can only march south along the railway.

With Masuda Kentai's order, all the devil soldiers of the 313th Wing of the 41st Devil Division immediately got off the train and marched on foot to Nanhuairen.

At this time, the battle in Huairen County was already at an end.

The Yoshimoto Brigade, which was already less than 700 troops, attacked through the coordinated encirclement of nearly three regiments of independent brigade troops, a special operations battalion, and a cavalry battalion. Although Yoshimoto Zhihui learned that the 313th Wing of the 41st Division of the Japanese Army, which had been transferred north from Taiyuan City, had rushed south from Datong to reinforce it, it was already a little late at this time.

What's more, after deciding to lead the devil soldiers of the 313th Wing to the south on foot to reinforce the Huairen defenders, he sent a report to Yoshimoto Shihui.

Yoshimoto Zhihui in the headquarters of the Japanese army Yoshimoto Brigade in Huairen County was like ashes.

"Hahaha, our Yoshimoto brigade, it's over! Sure enough, the Independent Brigade had already sent guerrillas to cut the railroad tracks along the way, forcing the 313th Wing of the Imperial Army, which was heading south from Datong, to reinforce us on foot. But on foot to the south, it is impossible to reach Huairen within an hour, and it is simply impossible to give an extra hour to the 313 Wing. Yoshimoto Shiki handed the telegram from the commander of the 313th Wing of the devil Masuda Kentai to the chief of staff Matsuki Sakuragi on the side, and laughed miserably.

After reading the telegram, Matsuki Sakura put it down silently, and he didn't laugh miserably, but his face was of course gloomy and bad.

"At this point, there is no hope for reinforcements. Although the fighters at Datong Airport and Xinkou Airport have already taken off, they are blinded by the black light, and our unit has already been mixed with the Independent Brigade, and the fighters of the air force bomb us at night, and they may be able to blow us up. ”

Matsuki Sakura paused, then pointed to the sky outside the door and said: "What's more, tonight is drenched in light rain, and the rain and fog are too big, even if the fighters of the air force arrive in the sky over Huairen, the rain and fog cannot be bombed." ”。

Without waiting for Yoshimoto Shihui to answer, the sound of clattering footsteps outside the brigade department came.

Soon, a devil soldier hurriedly ran in, "Report to the captain, chief of staff, hundreds of people from the independent brigade have attacked the gate of the brigade headquarters!" ”

"Order the warriors of the Imperial Army, for the empire, for Your Majesty, the time has come to fight for me to the end." Yoshimoto Shihui already waved his hand without any waves.

"Hairy, Captain!"

Seeing the devil soldiers turn around and run out, Yoshimoto Shihui said to Matsuki Sakura in despair: "The independent brigade has reached the gate of the headquarters, there are not many defenders guarding the gate, our soldiers have been killed and wounded, and it is impossible to wait for reinforcements to arrive." Now, please take care of it for me! ”。 That's right, Yoshimoto Shihui has already decided to commit suicide by disembowelment, and as for Matsuki Sakura, it was a mistake to cut off the old devil's head.
