The convoy between Beixiazhuang and Mengxian was attacked, all 67 vehicles were destroyed, and more than 200 soldiers were killed or wounded.

The lone piece of information was on the table, and the information had been opened, and everyone in Japanese on it was clearly visible.

Smack······ Squeak·······

The slap on the table made a violent sound, and the table shook, as if it was about to collapse. Next to the table was the angry division commander, and his eyes were glaring fiercely at a Japanese soldier in the headquarters at this time, almost wanting to devour people.

"Hi"

The commander of the garrison of Meng County, Ri Gaosheng Dazuo, shrunk his neck, lowered his head, and said no more after silently hilaring.

He didn't know how to explain this, because it couldn't be explained at all, the convoy was attacked in his defense area, he had to take the responsibility, and this responsibility must be borne by him, but he was also desperate about this matter.

The highway between Beixiazhuang and Mengxian is only more than 60 kilometers, and the straight-line distance is only less than 40 kilometers.

There is a brigade stationed in Beixiazhuang, and there is a wing of him in Mengxian County, according to reason, according to common sense, it is absolutely impossible for any guerrillas to dare to ambush the transport team between them, and if there is a battle anywhere between this road, his wing can also arrive within two hours to support, with the strength of his full wing, unless the Republic of China army dispatches a full division, otherwise any ambusher will not return.

However, the Republic of China army ambushed the convoy in between, not only successfully crippled the convoy, but also retreated completely.

This is simply a living slap in the face.

No sooner had the convoy been attacked than he received a telegram calling for help, with a large number of enemies. This time, the transport team has a reinforced squadron with more than 300 escort squadrons, and the enemy who can make them urgently call for help must also be very strong. So he immediately led a reinforced brigade of nearly 2,000 people to support, and in order to get to the battlefield as soon as possible, his brigade marched all the way and arrived at the battlefield in less than an hour and a half.

But all that was left for him was bombed, smashed, and burned supplies, and more than 200 soldiers were killed, not casualties, but killed.

According to the reports of the surviving soldiers, the entire battle lasted only half an hour, and the attackers were so powerful that the continuous shelling continued for half an hour.

And the enemy does not love war at all, and immediately retreats after half an hour,

Ri Gaosheng also deliberately checked the battle site, and the shell craters on the ground were indeed all over the ground.

"General"

Organizing his thoughts in his heart, Ri Gao began to speak.

"I am duty-bound to be attacked this time, the enemy can organize such a large-scale ambush in my jurisdiction, it is a major dereliction of duty in my vigilance work, and the squadron leader in charge of escort is also on guard, and it is a dereliction of duty for the discipline of my subordinates."

Whatever the reason for the incident, it's always a good idea to admit that you're wrong. In line with this principle, Rigaosheng first came to take the initiative to admit his mistakes.

And his eyes also saw the expected scenery, and the anger in the eyes of the division commander decreased a lot.

I couldn't help but praise myself in my heart, and on the surface, Ri Gaosheng still put on a sad look and continued.

"After this ambush, I found out that a lot of our previous intelligence was wrong, and a lot of common sense was wrong," he emphasized with two repetitive sentences, thus attracting the attention of the division commander.

"Look" the division commander really became interested.

"In our existing occupied areas, that is, Shanxi, Hebei, and Chahar regions, there are a large number of guerrillas of the Republic of China, and their main force is called the Eighth Route Army."

"This can be shown in the Battle of Pingxingguan"

"If they want to ambush the Imperial Army, they must hit the superior forces, and with the same strength or even one to two, they are not the opponents of the Imperial Army at all."

"And because of the lack of ammunition, their combat method is very simple, and after a short firefight, they immediately charge close to start a hand-to-hand battle"

"But in this ambush battle, they showed a completely different behavior than in the past"

At this point, he paused, took out a few photos, spread them flat on the table one by one, and then pointed to the photos.

"Here's a picture I took from the scene"

"Commander, look, here, here·····"

Hidaka pointed to two photographs, focusing on the bomb crater and the blown up car.

"All the cars were blown up by mortar shells, and there were a large number of craters around the battlefield, which were far larger than grenadiers in terms of power, but they were larger than 82mm mortars, so they should be 60 caliber mortars."

"After the war, I counted that there were more than 3,000 craters on the road here, and after calculation, the actual enemy fired more than 8,000 mortar shells in this ambush battle, and according to the surviving soldiers, the enemy's machine gun fire did not stop from the beginning to the end of the battle, and even, the enemy did not clean the battlefield after the battle, even if we discarded the guns and ammunition did not collect, but retreated directly."

"I also found a large number of warheads left by columns on the road"

Listening to the report of his own wing commander and looking at the photos on the table, the division commander was there for a while.

In his opinion, this group of guerrillas, who had to be self-sufficient in weapons, ammunition, and food, was a joke, and it was a joke to rely on manually reloading a few bullets in the countryside to fight against the imperial army. As long as the battle in front stabilizes, the empire will be able to wipe out this group of fleas in a matter of minutes.

And the facts also support his cognition, although there is often news of ambushes from the rear, but the ambushed are all transports of some size, even if they try their best to organize several large-scale attacks, it will not hurt, the loss of several transport brigades can be borne by the empire, and it cannot have a decisive impact on the front-line battle situation.

It's just that he knows very well that the only factor that causes the Ci situation is that the Eighth Route Army has poor weapons and equipment, and the supplies are also poor, and they can't even organize a few decent large-scale battles, and a large army is a hard bone in their eyes.

And if the Eighth Route Army received enough weapons and ammunition, then the supply lines in the rear ·····

"Are you sure it's the Eighth Route Army?"

With a pensive look in his eyes, the division commander asked.

"Yes, the attacker was wearing the uniform of the Eighth Route Army," Ri Gaosheng replied affirmatively.

"Where did they get so many weapons and ammunition?" Looking at the photos on the table and the road full of bomb craters, the division commander was puzzled.
