"Casualties and losses have been counted?" The brigade commander had a very bad premonition in his mind, and he hurriedly asked without waiting for the other party to speak!

"Hey!" The captain turned around and said in affirmation!

"The forward troops, as well as the first squadron where the main force went to the front, were not only attacked by the combined artillery fire and cavalry of the Eighth Route Army, but also by the infantry of the Eighth Route Army!"

"Two infantry squadrons are wiped out!"

"The 3rd Infantry Squadron was attacked by a combined artillery and cavalry attack, and more than half of them were killed!"

"The troops behind were only attacked by the artillery of the Eighth Route Army, and the casualties were still within our tolerance!"

"But the casualties of the various units combined, it is still a lot of money!"

"This is not counting the casualties caused by the sneak attack of the small units of the surrounding Eighth Route Army!"

The brigade commander stared at the captain and asked: "I don't want to listen to this nonsense, I just need specific casualty figures!" How many people did we lose in the battle just now! ”

"How many people were killed in direct battle, and how many were seriously injured and lost their combat effectiveness!"

The captain hurriedly replied: "A total of 495 people have been killed in battle, and 189 people have been seriously injured and lost their combat effectiveness!"

"Because the Eighth Route Army is still hiding around and continues to sneak attack us, there must be a lot of missing statistics on the battlefield!"

The brigade commander's face immediately turned red with anger, and his eyes seemed to be able to breathe fire, and he scolded: "In other words, in less than an hour of fighting just now, we directly lost more than 700 people!"

"And our enemy, the Eighth Route Army, only dispatched more than two dozen artillery pieces, more than a hundred cavalry and less than a hundred infantry in the battle!"

"Hey!"

The captain lowered his head and didn't dare to say a word of nonsense!

The brigade commander must be on the verge of anger now, and once he says the wrong thing, all the anger he has held back will definitely be vented on himself!

"Da Da Da ......"

Not far away, a string of gunshots interrupted the scolding of the brigade commander!

The gunfire was very dense, and at least five or six light machine guns could fire together to make such a move!

"It must be the attacking troops who blocked the Eighth Route Army that was sneaking up on us!" A staff officer next to him whispered!

This news can definitely be called like drinking rain for the brigade commander!

All I heard just now was bad news, blocking the Eighth Route Army's sneak attack on the troops and killing them, although such a result is very small, and even a little not worth mentioning, but after all, it is a victory!

Immediately raise the binoculars and look at the battlefield two hundred meters away!

Six crooked handles are arranged in a semi-encirclement, and the fire is on fire at the middle point!

Under the cover of night, the bullets fired by the light machine gun are particularly dazzling, and like a meteor, the flight trajectory can be seen clearly!

"Yo Xi, the attack troops did a good job, just after they went out, they blocked a sneak attack force of the Eighth Route Army!" A rare smile appeared on the solemn face of the brigade commander, and he ordered happily!

"Order the attacking troops to kill them, I will kill all the Eighth Route Army that the troops encountered in Lingqiu, and avenge the imperial army killed in the battle, in order to vent the hatred in my heart!"

As soon as the herald left, the brigade commander's eyelids jumped unconsciously, and then he saw a crooked dumb fire!

In less than three seconds, another crooked handle was dumb fire!

"Da Da Da ......"

A few tongues of fire also appeared behind the attacking troops, and the bullets whizzed towards the counterattacking troops!

Three of the crooked handles that were shooting were dumb on the spot, and the formation began to be chaotic at this time!

People are constantly being killed by bullets flying around them for no apparent reason!

"Yaga! There must have been an enemy who went around behind our counterattacking force! The captain shouted!

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

As soon as he finished speaking, more intensive gunshots came one after another!

Not only the sound of machine gun fire, but also the sound of box gun fire, and the sound of box gun fire is even more intensive!

The formation of the counterattack force became even more chaotic, and many soldiers were like headless flies, lying on the ground and shooting indiscriminately around them!

All six crooked handles are dumb fire!

Even if a machine gun came up to shoot, the fire lasted less than two seconds and stopped!

"Baga, it must be the sneak attack force of the Eighth Route Army that has touched behind the counterattack force!" The brigade commander also understood at this time!

He immediately ordered: "What are you doing here?" Send another squadron to kill out, reinforce the attacking troops, and flank the front and rear to kill the Eighth Route Army that attacked us! ”

To the surprise of the brigade commander, as soon as the reinforcements moved, the gunfire on the battlefield stopped!

It's dark everywhere, as if nothing happened just now!

After waiting for less than five minutes, the brigade commander saw the attacking troops coming back to give orders!

The team of more than 150 people at the time of the attack was already a lot shorter at this time, and there were many seriously wounded people in it!

"General, the humble duty has not been done well! Request for sanction! "The captain walked up to the brigade commander, like a defeated rooster, and reported with his head down!

The brigade commander was angry and scolded: "You are a stupid pig." There are so many troops, even dozens of Eighth Route Army can't deal with it, and they let them successfully escape after beating you, which is simply a shame for the imperial army! ”

"Hey, the general is taught!" The captain replied with his head down, not daring to refute a word!

Two hours later, Major General Sakai finally led his troops to Lingqiu City!

Because the troops marched all the way and the radio was not turned on, the brigade commander, Major General Sakai, did not know that the siege troops had been driven out of Lingqiu City by Hong Linfeng!

Seeing that the three captains and one deputy captain who came to greet him all lowered their heads, Major General Sakai's first reaction was inexplicable!

The eyes are fixed on the vice-captain first!

That's right, this deputy captain is the deputy of the temporary commander-in-chief of the siege forces!

Now he's been dismissed, and he's still guilty!

As the newly appointed brigade commander of the Major General, his direct boss dared not to come to greet him!

The brigade commander's first reaction was that he had been insulted, and even a guilty person dared not to greet him and looked down on himself!

After the troops were raided, the fire that had been held all the way was like a powder keg that had been ignited, which was detonated in an instant!

Stared at the deputy captain and scolded: "What about your captain? Why didn't you come! ”

"Didn't he know that I brought the order given to him by the military department?"

The rank of deputy captain is only a captain, and in his eyes, the commander of the major general's brigade is definitely an existence to look up to!

As long as the other party moves his fingers, he can easily decide his future like crushing an ant!

Therefore, in the face of the brigade commander's obviously angry questioning, the deputy captain's heart suddenly rose to his throat, and he felt a huge pressure rushing towards him!

Then he held back his inner fear and reported: "Report to the general...... Our captain ...... Apologize for being disemboweled at the headquarters! ”

"Nani?" The brigade commander asked rhetorically with a pair of big eyes!

The deputy captain quickly explained: "As soon as the telegram to the military headquarters was sent, the captain drove us out of the command headquarters, and no one was allowed to go near there!"

"At the beginning, Command could still hear some movement!"

"In the early hours of the morning, the movement of the headquarters was completely gone, and by the time we rushed in, the captain had already lost his breath!"

"That's it!"

The anger on the brigade commander's face slowly disappeared!

He took a deep breath and replied: "Apology may be the best outcome for your captain, at least to preserve your honor as a soldier, and you don't have to be sent to a military court!"

"I'll report this matter to the military department, since your captain is dead. You're the vice-captain, so you'll be the captain for the time being! ”

"Let's go, let's go to your headquarters in the city now, I want to know all the battles you encountered yesterday afternoon, as soon as dawn, we will launch an attack on the remaining Eighth Route Army in the city, and we must end the battle within a day and kill them!"

Several captains didn't move, and their already lowered heads were even lower at this time!

Major General Sakai's anger rose again, and he scolded: "Yaga, why don't you carry out the order!"

The captain who carried the rank of Nakasa on his shoulders replied stubbornly: "The general is angry!"

"It's not that we don't carry out the order, it's that Lingqiu City is lost!"

"We were still in the city in the first half of the night, completely controlling all the areas along the city walls! But since the second half of the night, we have been attacked by the Eighth Route Army one after another, and the troops have suffered heavy casualties! In order to alleviate the casualties of the troops and not give the Eighth Route Army a chance, we can only abandon Lingqiu City, take the initiative to withdraw, and camp outside the city! ”

The brigade commander's eyes were once again flushed red, as if they could breathe fire.

stared at the three captains for a full minute before speaking!

"In other words, you were driven out of Lingqiu City by the Eighth Route Army?"

"Lingqiu City, which was captured with great difficulty by losing more than 2,000 imperial troops yesterday afternoon, was all thrown away by you in one night, what kind of hell is this fighting, are they all stupid pigs? No, stupid pigs aren't as shitty as you are! ”

"Do you know what it means to us to lose Lingqiu City?"

"The more than 2,000 imperial soldiers who died in the battle yesterday afternoon all died in vain, and all the battles of the afternoon were in vain!"

"After dawn, we will attack Lingqiu again and enter the city, everything will have to be done all over again, and we will also lose a large number of imperial troops!"

Seeing that the three captains all lowered their heads and did not speak, the more the brigade commander scolded, the more angry he became, and the idea of vomiting blood was gone!

At the Japanese military headquarters in Taiyuan, the chief of staff held a telegram in his hand, stood in front of the commander, his mouth opened and closed, and he hesitated for a long time without saying a word!

Seeing that the army commander suddenly looked up at himself, he could only reply stubbornly: "Sir, the commander of the Sakai Brigade is in a hurry!"

"He led his troops to be attacked by the Eighth Route Army ten kilometers away from Lingqiu City, the other side was equipped with two brigades of artillery, artillery and cavalry cooperated with each other to raid us, the troops suffered heavy casualties, and nearly one brigade lost its combat effectiveness!"

"After the troops arrived at Lingqiu City, our troops who entered Lingqiu City were all driven out by the Eighth Route Army, and they also lost more than 300 soldiers in the battle, and all the results achieved by the troops yesterday afternoon were all in vain!"
