Chapter 394 Retreat? (9th Update)
Itako Seishiro was very shocked when he received the news from the artillery.
He didn't know how many troops there were on the Eighth Road, and they didn't hear from them before.
They knew that in the northwest of Shanxi, they probably had a division of troops, but there was not a division, and some of the troops were not yet in Shanxi.
But looking at this situation now, the troops on the Eighth Route side alone participated in the battle this time, more than 15,000 people.
The strength of a division on the Eighth Route is only 16,000 people, of which 12,000 are combat troops, and the rest are doctors and nurses, as well as other logistics workers.
The number of combatants was 12,000, but now that so many troops had been put into the battle on the Eighth Road, it was very incomprehensible to him.
"What now? If our artillery units cannot hold it, then the troops in front of us are also in danger.
We thought that about 8,000 people would be invested on the Eighth Road, but now, it may have doubled! ”
The chief of staff was also a little anxious, and the senior staff officer before did not dare to say that he would mobilize more troops to fight the Eighth Route now.
Because now they are reinforcing the troops of the past, and they are all in trouble.
Of course, the infantry units attacking in front had not yet sent a telegram asking for reinforcements, and they were still continuing to attack, continuing to attack the blocking positions of the Eighth Road, but the artillery could not hold it!
"Damn, order Suzuki's side to mobilize troops to reinforce our artillery units, and we must not let the artillery units be knocked down by the Eighth Road.
Damn, we still have an infantry brigade next to our artillery, if they want to kill our brigade, then they need at least 3,000 people, and less than 3,000 people, they can't beat us! Itako Seishiro stood there, touching his head and said.
"What if Sun Hao is over there?" The chief of staff came from the side.
Itako Seishiro heard it, raised his head sharply, and looked at his chief of staff.
"Baga, he, he must be over there, the main direction of attack of the Eighth Road, is to eat our artillery unit, and then slowly fight with us.
They want to annihilate our troops, and at the same time they also want to control those five county towns, damn it, when did the appetite of the Eighth Road become so big? Do they have any strength? ”
Ban Heng Zhengshiro only figured out Sun Hao's intentions at this moment, Sun Hao and they just wanted to annihilate their troops.
"Division commander, our troops may not be able to bear it, and if the artillery is gone, it will definitely lose.
At that time, even if they don't fight us head-on, with Sun Hao alone, it will bring huge casualties to our troops! The chief of staff looked at Itachi Seishiro and said.
"We were fooled, we were fooled at the beginning, they just wanted us to fight, including Sun Hao's coming here, it was also a false shot, making us think that he was buying time for their troops.
In fact, they are wrong, they have the strength to kill our troops, if Sun Hao is committed to attacking the county seat from the beginning, then those county towns will be taken in less than a day.
And the reason why it is delayed is that we hope that our side will transfer troops to the past, they are planning for next year's operation, and they do not want our troops to be repaired, even if they are repaired, they will not let us repair in peace and stability.
Damn, immediately order our troops to break through, and the troops on the county side must also break through, even if they enter the mountains, they must run, they must run out.
The county town can't hold it, give it all up, damn it, we should have given up those places in the first place! Itachi Seishiro shouted very angrily at the moment, he was really fooled this time!
If they can't break through this time, then their troops may be wiped out.
Moreover, the counties around Datong are all dangerous, and the troops on the Eighth Route are very likely to attack those counties, even if they don't attack the past, they will develop their forces there.
"How so? They are developing so fast! The chief of staff also said in horror.
They hadn't thought of this before, but now, they had no choice but to retreat!
"Immediately order a retreat, this time we failed, and I don't know how many troops can be withdrawn, damn it!" Itako Seishiro said to the chief of staff.
When the chief of staff heard this, he immediately ran to the telegraph room!
"Call me!" Sun Hao led his troops to continue to shoot at the devils there, and now the main forces on the devil's side have attracted them here.
And at this moment, behind the devil, there was a gunshot, and the light machine guns and rifles pressed against the devil!
"Yaga, there's someone in the back!" Those devils heard the gunshots behind them and were very anxious!
"Comrades, give me a hard beating!" Sun Hao still shouted loudly, his light machine gun never stopped at all, and shot fiercely at the devil!
"Sun Hao, can we charge?" The first battalion commander found Sun Hao, and he found that there were not many people on the devil's side, so there was no need to waste bullets at all, just rush over and kill them!
"Charge, charge, let's talk about it after the fight, Made, I don't know what will happen next, once the charge goes up, it will be a grappling when the time comes, I don't know how long it will take, let's kill them with a gun as much as possible!" Sun Hao shouted at him.
"Ah, what a waste of ammunition!" The commander of the first battalion said to Sun Hao, they fought before, and they all saved ammunition!
"It's okay, the devil has it, don't worry about the ammunition!" Sun Hao said indifferently.
The devil's troops, many of them didn't fire a few shots, and the ammunition they carried on their vehicles, there must be a lot of useless!
"Okay, listen to you!" The commander of the first battalion saw that Sun Hao was against the charge, and he could only give up!
"Made, why did the devils turn around, they are going to reinforce the devils outside?" At this time, Lao Wang found that the devil was turning around!
"Huh? U-turn? When the other regimental commanders heard this, they all took their binoculars and looked at them.
"Made, immediately order the artillery, hit me, hit hard, I want to run, there is no door, in addition, send a telegram to Sun Hao's side, just say that there is a vehicle on the devil's side to turn around, they may choose to retreat, you must stop them!
At the same time, it should be noted that once you can't resist it, send a telegram immediately, and our side will mobilize reinforcements over! Lao Wang said to a few communication soldiers beside him.
"Yes!" When the signal soldiers heard this, they turned around and went to send a telegram, and they also knew that it was a critical time.
