Nanjing, Fanghua Garden. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Shunroku Hata couldn't stay up, so he went to the lounge for a nap, but when he woke up, he received a telegram from the 10th Division from Dameishan.
After reading the telegram, Shunroku Hata just smiled coldly.
Shozo Kawabe asked, "Why is Your Excellency the Commander laughing?" ”
Shunroku Hata sneered and said: "I laugh at the little pig Yoshio, at this time, he still doesn't give up, and he still has luck." ”
Kawabe Shozo was puzzled, and asked Hata Junroku blankly: "Why did Your Excellency the General say that, is there any problem?" ”
Shunroku Hata said coldly: "Riverside-san, you may not know much about Yoshio Piggy, but I know this person's character better than anyone else. ”
Hebe Zhengsan suddenly said: "I forgot about my humble position, Your Excellency Little Pig and Your Excellency the General, you are classmates of Lu University." ”
Shunroku Hata and Yoshio Piggy are indeed classmates of the twenty-third phase of the Japanese Army University, Shunroku Hata is the chief saber, and Yoshio Piggy is the fifth, and he was also received by the Emperor of Japan and received the imperial saber, but few people know that Yoshio Piga is not very convinced by Shunroku Hata as the chief saber.
At the graduation ceremony of Lu University, Yoshio Piggy even openly mocked Shunroku Hatata, thinking that Shunroku Hata was completely injured in the Russo-Japanese War, so he won the sympathy of the instructors.
So Shunroku Hata doesn't have a good personal relationship with Yoshio Piggy.
However, Shunroku Hata's judgment of Yoshio Piggy is not because the two have a bad relationship in private.
Hata Junroku said coldly: "My Lu University classmate is competitive, and I can't see others stronger than him in my life, Xu Rui's performance in several battles must have aroused my Lu University's competitive spirit, if I guess correctly, the retreat of the 10th Division is just a false shot, and his real goal is still Monkey Head Ridge!" ”
"Nani?" Hebe Masan was dumbfounded and said, "Your Excellency General, are you saying that Your Excellency Little Pig actually doesn't plan to retreat from Dameishan, and the reason why he put on a retreat posture is just to confuse the Independent Regiment?" His real intention, but he still took Monkey Head Ridge and then took Meizhen directly? ”
Shunroku Hata said coldly, "It must be so. ”
Kawabe Shozo said: "In that case, why does Your Excellency Piggy even have to deceive us? ”
Hata Junroku smiled, and then said: "My classmate Lu University is competing with me, he wants to see if I can see through his intentions, but it's a pity that my classmate is more than smart, but he only lacks a little self-knowledge, he fights wits and courage with an opponent of Xu Rui's level, and the result can only be humiliated, just look, the 10th Division is going to be in big trouble." ”
Kawabe Shozo said awe-inspiringly: "Your Excellency, General, otherwise, let's send a telegram to remind you?" ”
Hata Junroku waved his hand and said: "No, a reminder will only arouse my classmate's heart of danger even more, and will only force him to go to the dark on the road of adventure, then again, we can't do nothing, the 10th Division is one of the 17 permanent divisions of the Imperial Japanese Army, no better than the 106th Division that was completely annihilated in Wanjialing, so no matter what, we can't let the independent regiment be completely annihilated in the Damei Mountains, otherwise the face of the empire and the Imperial Japanese Army will be lost." ”
"Hello." Kawabe Shozo paused and said, "Your Excellency, what should we do?" ”
Shunroku Hata frowned and pondered for a moment, and asked, "Hebe-san, how is the training of the 18th Division?" ”
During the Battle of Xuzhou, the 18th Division was responsible for the security tasks of southern Anhui and western Zhejiang, but when the 9th and 13th Divisions went north, they were taken advantage of by Xu Rui's independent regiment to occupy Feicheng, and Shanshanyuan, then commander of the Central China Front, urgently organized the main force of the 18th Division stationed in Wuhu into the Judi Detachment, and ordered it to go north to relieve the siege of Feicheng.
Needless to say, the Kikuchi detachment and the 6th Division besieged Feicheng, but instead left the independent regiment half crippled.
In the end, Xu Rui cheated his death, Feicheng was lost and occupied, and the remnants of the Judi Detachment and the Sixth Division were trapped in Huainan, and then Chairman Jiang ordered to blow up the mouth of the garden, and the Yellow River flooded down and flooded the entire Huanghuai Valley, and the Judi Detachment and the Sixth Division could be said to have suffered a lot, and when the flood receded, the officers and soldiers of the whole army were extremely tired.
After that, the 6th Division stayed in Huainan for rectification, but the Judi detachment returned to Nanjing and returned to the 18th Division, and then stayed in Nanjing for rectification and training.
However, due to the great losses of grassroots officers and backbone veterans in the Battle of Feicheng, and the fact that it was trapped in Huainan by floods for nearly half a month, the combat effectiveness of the 18th Division fell off a cliff, and its morale was also extremely low, so it was only possible to recover after a long period of training.
At that moment, Kawabe Shozo said: "Returning to Your Excellency, the training effect of the 18th Division is still not ideal, unless a large number of backbone veterans are transferred from other divisions and regiments, it may be very difficult to recover its combat effectiveness. ”
"Draw people from other divisions? Now that all the battlefields are reaching out for people, where can I go to transfer people to them? Hata Junroku snorted, and then continued, "No matter how much, anyway, there is no need for the 18th Division to fight a tough battle this time, just go to Dameishan to pick up the 10th Division, which is the 18th Division." ”
"Hello." "In this case, I will contact the navy and ask them to mobilize ships to come to the Xiaguan wharf to help, but at present, the navy's river defense fleet is fighting fiercely with the national army near Madang, and I am afraid that too many ships will not be dispatched to help in the battle, so it will take at least two days for the 18th Division to cross the river." ”
Shunroku Hata nodded and said, "Let's let the Jiangfang fleet as soon as possible." ”
"Hello." Kawabe Shozo paused again and turned away.
(Dividing Line)
Seventy-two hours later, Xu Rui finally regained his mobility.
Of course, Xu Rui is only recovering his ability to act, but it will take longer to recover his combat effectiveness.
Stimulating the potential of the body is a double-edged sword, which can greatly enhance Xu Rui's combat effectiveness in a short period of time, but the side effects are also very large, in addition to the seventy-two hours of half-dead period, there is also a period of weakness of at least half a month, in this half month, Xu Rui's ability in all aspects will fall off a cliff.
Therefore, there is no perfect good thing in this world.
After recovering his ability to act, Xu Rui immediately took He Guangming and Lei Xiang to the valley where He Guangming and they killed the fake Dongjiu Twist Yan.
Although Xu Rui's six senses have declined significantly, his tracking ability has not been completely lost.
"Old He Leizi, you see, when you get here, all traces have disappeared." Xu Rui pointed to the mountain road and said, "This means that after the little devils ran here, they didn't run away, and all the devils have been killed here." ”
"All the devils?" He Guangming was surprised, and asked again, "Including the little devil Dongjiu Twister?" ”
"What do you think, I mean all the devils who ran here, not the devils who slipped away in the middle." Xu Rui rolled his eyes and said, "Obviously, this little devil Dongjiu Tsuruyan secretly hid somewhere in the middle, and then quietly slipped away while you killed the fake prince and relaxed your vigilance." ”
He Guangming said hurriedly when he heard this: "But we chased forward later, and we didn't catch up until we were outside the mountain, and I was looking for a few people with the fastest legs and feet at that time, I don't believe it, such a pampered royal child can still outrun the scuds in our battalion!" ”
Xu Rui said angrily: "Can you let me finish my words first?" ”
He Guangming snorted, scratched his head a little wryly, and stopped talking.
Xu Rui continued: "What you just said is the cunning of this little devil Dongjiu Eryan, he knows that if he runs outside along the mountain road, he will definitely be caught up by you, so he didn't continue to run out along this road at all, I didn't expect that such a royal kid is actually a master of anti-tracking, hey." ”
He Guangming learned to be obedient this time, and he didn't speak again, but Lei Xiang asked: "Then where did this little devil go?" In the past two days, we have searched all the areas within a radius of 50 miles, but we have not found them. ”
Xu Rui said: "If you want to know where Higashikuri has gone, you have to find out where he slipped away from first." ”
After finishing speaking, Xu Rui walked back with Lei Xiang, He Guangming and a dozen veterans from a battalion of guard platoons.
walked all the way, searched all the way, and found about five miles back, Xu Rui found a suspicious place.
"Here." Xu Rui pointed to a cluster of withered plants and said, "There are obvious traces of concealment here, if it weren't for the passage of time for three full days, the plants used for concealment would have died, and even I wouldn't have been able to find this trace, hehe, it seems that I have to re-evaluate the anti-tracking level of Higashikure." ”
Lei Xiang and He Guangming took the veterans of the guard platoon and continued to look for them along the traces, but found more traces.
After searching the mountain road for about ten miles, they found a loose soil in an extremely hidden rock crevice, and when they turned over the loose soil, they found that the internal organs and hair of a hare were buried underneath.
Chasing here, Xu Rui's face was completely gloomy.
"I see, it turns out that Higashikuri is not alone." Xu Rui said in a deep voice, "There is another person beside him, and this person is an old and spicy anti-tracking master, if nothing else, at this time, Dongjiu Twist Yan has already escaped from Damei Mountain, so there is no need to chase anymore." ”
"Ran away?" When He Guangming heard this, he was immediately disappointed.
"Run, run, run, this time even if this little devil has a big life." Xu Rui smiled and said, "However, although this little devil has run away, it is not so easy for the Tenth Division to escape." ”
