Seeing Fujii Suekichi swinging like a duck coming over, Katoi couldn't help but want to laugh.

But in the end, Kato Ichi still held back, because no matter what, Fujii Sueyoshi was the brigade commander, and he Kato Ichi was just a captain.

"General!" Katoi was the first to say.

Fujii Sueyoshi waved his hand and said, "Kato-kun, have you noticed it, I haven't met the Shina army along the way." ”

"Hello." Katoi said for a moment, "The humble position has also been discovered, but this is also normal, after all, this time the Zhejiang-Fujian Battle Imperial Army used five and a half divisions, and the scale is far greater than the previous Nanchang Battle and Suizao Battle, and the Zhina Army in the Zhejiang-Fujian battlefield is far worse than the Zhina Army in the Hunan and Jiangxi battlefields." ”

After a pause, Kato Ichi said again: "The Chinese army knows that it can't be defeated, and it is reasonable to flee from the wind, after all, this kind of thing is not once or twice." ”

"No, it shouldn't be that simple." Fujii Sueyoshi shook his head and said, "Judging from the situation in the villages and towns along the way, it is obvious that the Shina army does not seem to have fled in a hurry, but should have retreated in an orderly manner. ”

"It seems to be." Katoi said, "If you run away in a hurry, it is unlikely that the fortifications of the Shina Army will be cleaned up so cleanly, and it is impossible that there will not even be a single Shina soldier who runs in the wrong direction." ”

"So, this must be an orderly retreat." Fujii Sueyoshi nodded.

After a pause, Fujii Sueyoshi said again: "But for the Imperial Army, it's all the same. ”

"Yes." Shuichi Kato also nodded and said, "Unless the Chinese army retreats to Jiangxi Province and even Guangdong Province in great strides, they will still not be able to avoid the end of annihilation, but then again, even if they withdraw to Jiangxi Province and even Guangdong Province, it will only be a few more days, and they will eventually be annihilated by the imperial army." ”

Fujii Sueyoshi nodded and said: "Kato-kun, since the Zhina army has taken the initiative to retreat, then from here to Fuyang, there must be no more defenders, so we don't need to move forward slowly like this, we can stride forward, in this way, you lead the first infantry brigade to speed up the march, and strive to reach Fuyang County before dark!" ”

"Hello!" Hearing this, Kato Shu paused heavily, and immediately turned around and walked away with his saber on his shoulder.

……

In the blink of an eye, the day passed.

It was the evening of July 24, 1939.

The headquarters of the 13th Army of the Japanese Army, located at 2121 North Sichuan Road, was already busy.

When Nagajun walked into the battle hall with a telegram, he saw Usamitaka and Hinata Shiaki together, whispering about something, and both of them looked relaxed.

Calming down, Changjun took the telegram and walked towards the two.

Compared with yesterday's panic, Changjun is much calmer now.

Because last night, the people of the military commander eliminated Masao Oshima, the general manager of Asia Ocean, and Yoshinoya's proprietor Yoshino.

I heard that after Kenji Dohihara learned the news, he was half angry to death.

It's a pity that no matter how angry Kenji Dohihara is, it's useless, because all the clues pointing to his Changjun have been cut off.

This means that he Changjun is already safe.

The only thing that made Changjun unhappy was that he became a pawn of the military commander.

In the future, it is no longer up to him to decide what kind of intelligence he wants, but the military commanders to have the final say.

"Your Excellency, Chief of Staff! Your Excellency, Director! Changjun walked up to the two of them and paused.

Then, Chang Jun handed over the information in his hand: "Wenzhou urgent, the 85th Infantry Wing of the 22nd Division has successfully landed in Wenzhou Bay, and there is no resistance in the process of grabbing the beach. ”

"Yo Si." Hinata took the telegram and waved his hand again to signal Nagatoshi to leave.

Changjun turned around and left, but after turning around, he could vaguely hear Hinata Shiaki saying, "Judging from the results of the first day, the progress of the two clusters is simply overwhelming. ”

Then came Takashi Usami's voice: "The more this is the case, the more you can't take it lightly." ”

Then it was Hinata Zhiming's voice: "I understand that no matter what, this time our opponent is no longer Gu Shutong, a fool, but Zhong Yi, the sworn enemy of the empire." ”

……

At the same time, in the county seat of Fuyang.

A Japanese advance force of about 200 people appeared outside the county in the afterglow of the setting sun.

However, at this time, most of the people in Fuyang County had already received the news in advance and hid in the countryside, so now there are only a dozen patrols left in the huge county.

These dozen patrol policemen are all bloody men, and they are unwilling to give a good Fuyang county to the devil without letting go of a shot, so they repeatedly asked the police chief to stay.

The police chief agreed to their request and left them with enough ammunition.

At this moment, these dozen patrol policemen gathered on the east gate tower of Fuyang County.

Seeing hundreds of devils approaching with bright bayonets, the air in the city seemed to freeze.

More than a dozen patrol officers gasped violently, and at the same time, they inevitably regretted it in their hearts, when they asked the director to fight before, they felt that they would not be afraid, but when it came to life and death, they found that they would still be afraid.

Among these dozen patrol policemen, the leader is a patrol officer named Ma Fei, who is thin and thin, but his eyes are very sharp, and he used to be a ruthless character in the Fuyang Patrol Police Team, and even the police chief was jealous of him flying three times.

Ma Fei was also afraid, but he finally overcame his fear.

"Do not be afraid, brethren." Ma Fei said, "People will die after all, and if they die today, it's just a few decades less, it's not a big deal, but if you can pull a few little devils on your back, you will make a lot of money!" ”

As he spoke, Ma Fei opened the nose of the mirror box, and then said, "Raise the gun and get to work!" ”

To tell the truth, Ma Fei's words were lackluster, but the dozen or so patrol officers finally mustered up the courage, and with trembling hands one by one, they lifted more than a dozen Hanyang-made rifles and set them up on the battlements.

In the blink of an eye, the devils outside the city had approached within a hundred meters, and opened a sparse skirmish.

"Call me!" Ma Fei turned the mirror box horizontally, and shot at the horn outside the city, at such a long distance, it was naturally impossible to hit the little devils, and the bullets didn't know which one to fly to.

Seeing Ma Fei shoot, the dozen or so patrolmen also pulled the trigger of their rifles.

"Horn Horn Horn ......" sparse gunshots rang out on the east gate tower of Fuyang County.

Hearing the gunshots, the devil lieutenant who led the team immediately half-squatted on the ground, and the devil soldiers who followed behind him even fell down one after another.

But after listening to the sound of gunfire for a long time, not a single soldier fell to the ground, and the leading devil lieutenant immediately burst into laughter, and immediately raised his saber and led forward, shouting: "Forward! Keep moving! ”
