Chapter 905: Anti-Water
After receiving the order of Okabe Naosaburo, the 13th Infantry Wing and the 45th Infantry Wing immediately launched on the spot to step up the repair of the fortifications, and the 23rd Infantry Wing also launched a fierce attack on Badou Town, but until 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Badou Town was still firmly controlled in the guard camp.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the Wolf Tooth team rushed to Badou Town, and then even entered the battle.
From noon to about 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the 23rd Infantry Wing attacked for more than three hours, and only suffered more than 100 casualties, but from 3 o'clock to 5 o'clock in the afternoon, more than 500 casualties were killed and wounded in more than an hour.
Again, in jungle warfare or street fighting, the special forces are really terrible!
Okabe Naosaburo was a little overwhelmed and quickly ordered the Sano United to stop the attack.
In the evening, the main force of the Dameishan Military Division also arrived, and then the whole line was unfolded, encircling the Kumamoto Division, and at this time there was a relatively harmonious scene on the battlefield, and the front positions of the Chinese and Japanese armies were no more than 300 meters apart, but the two armies were not in a hurry to start the battle, but were busy repairing the fortifications.
In the night, the officers and men of the Chinese and Japanese armies desperately waved their shovels and desperately dug fortifications, looking up from their respective positions, they could even see the dust raised on the opposite position! In this way, the Chinese and Japanese armies were busy with each other, but they did not interfere with each other, and the battlefield of Badou Town fell silent.

The battlefield of Badou Town was temporarily silent, but Feicheng, the old nest of the Kumamoto Division, was turbulent.
Under the cover of night, the three divisions of the 32nd Group Army had quietly entered the vicinity of Feicheng, and quickly uprooted the outlying strongholds of the four towns of Feicheng.
The 32nd Group Army's operation was done very well in secrecy, so for the devils who stayed in Feixi, Feidong, and other four towns, the more than 20,000 national troops almost suddenly appeared from underground, and the commander of the 11th Infantry Brigade of the Japanese Army who stayed in Feixi Town, Ima Katsuji, was also taken aback.
When he first received the report, Ima Katsuji didn't even believe it, thinking that the puppet army was lying about the military situation.
However, it didn't take long for the town of Feixi to be attacked, and only then did Katsuji believe that the main force of the National Army had arrived, so Katsuji quickly ordered the Japanese troops who remained in the four towns of Hisai to assemble urgently.
After the main force of the Kumamoto Division went out, Naosaburo Okabe left an infantry brigade for Ima Katsuji, plus the Hijo gendarmerie and the garrisons of the airport, station, and military station, the total strength was almost more than 2,000 people, and more than 2,000 people were mainly stationed in Hisai Town and the airport next to Hisai Town, and only a small number of troops were stationed in the rest of the places.
Because of this, Feixi Town was also the main target of the 32nd Group Army.
At this time, Ima Katsuji was inspecting a stronghold outside the west gate of Feixi Town.
Responsible for the perimeter defense of the West Gate is Lao Jiu's garrison brigade, there are ten outlying strongholds in Feixi Town, but the outermost nine strongholds have all been lost, and there is only one stronghold next to Feixi Town, because of this, Lao Jiu nodded and stood behind Jin Shengzhi, and he didn't even dare to breathe.
"Yaga!" Jin Shengzhi held the guardrail of the watchtower with one hand, held a telescope with the other hand to observe the movement of the enemy outside the town, and scolded the brigade commander of the first brigade of the puppet army garrison, Lao Jiu, "Old Jiu Sang, what do you first brigade do to eat?" Why did the Chinese army reach Feixi Town so quickly? A bunch of rice buckets! ”
Lao Jiu drooped his head, didn't say anything, but in his heart he was slandered, you dogs, like thieves, guard against Lao Tzu, this is not good, that is not allowed, and even the ammunition is not allowed to be kept, what can we do? Could it be that let's fight with people with fists and teeth?
The last time Feicheng defended the battle, after Nan Batian led the troops anyway, Lao Jiu also lost the trust of the Japanese army, although after that Lao Jiu was also promoted from the regiment commander to the brigade commander, but the strength of his troops was not increased but decreased, when it was originally a garrison regiment, there were more than 1,000 people under his hands, and now it has become a garrison brigade but there are only five or six hundred people left.
What makes Lao Jiu even more angry, the Japanese army still does not allow the puppet military garrison division to keep ammunition, this is really asking for Lao Jiu's own life, Lao Jiu originally pointed to secretly selling some arms to make a few small money, but now the Japanese army does not allow them to keep ammunition, so what kind of ammunition does he resell? What else to make money with?
Cutting off people's financial routes is like killing their parents, and Lao Jiu has been unhappy for a long time.
Jin Shengzhi scolded for a long time, and then said: "Old Jiusang, Ximen will be handed over to you The First Brigade of the Imperial Army, of course, I will also leave an infantry squad to assist you, but I need to make a special note that the position mainly depends on you to defend, and the infantry squad I left behind is only to assist, do you understand?" ”
"Hello." The old wine nodded and said, "Understood, little one understands." ”
Ima Katsuji snorted lightly, and said: "Also, I must warn you, if the first brigade of your Imperial Alliance Army still can't hold the stronghold this time, if it still collapses at the touch of a button like just now, and loses the Ximen stronghold in less than half an hour, then don't blame me for being unkind to you!" Do you understand? ”
The old wine paused heavily and said, "Haiyi, I understand my humble duties. ”
Ima Katsuji turned around and left, and the old wine also returned to his headquarters.
As soon as Lao Jiu entered the command headquarters, several regiment commanders under him immediately surrounded him.
"Okza, are you alright? Katsuji didn't do anything to you, did he? ”
"Old Torture, look at your broken mouth, what can we do in the Brigade?"
"That is, can we be blamed for the loss of the outlying stronghold? If you want to blame, you can only blame the devil! ”
Lao Jiu was noisy by several regiment leaders, frowned and said, "Okay, shut up Lao Tzu." ”
Several regiment commanders shut up in unison, and after a while, Lao Jiu gritted his teeth and said: "Brothers, this old devil has just given an ultimatum to our first brigade, if we can't defend the Ximen stronghold, he will take Lao Tzu to open the knife, and you guys probably don't have any good fruit to eat." ”
When several regiment commanders heard this, they immediately looked at each other.
After a long time, a regiment commander asked in a low voice: "Brigade seat, only our first brigade?" ”
Although the first brigade of the puppet army claims to be a brigade, it is actually only two battalions, but the national army outside has at least one division or more, and it is still a regular army, so let them have two battalions against one division of the national army? Only an idiot would believe that they could hold it, and that was simply impossible.
Lao Jiu snorted lightly and said, "I'm going to leave us an infantry squad. ”
"Just a squad?" The regimental commander shouted, "Damn, are you here to help in the war, or are you here to spy on us?" ”
"Spying on us, of course." Lao Jiu said coldly, "Brothers, the old devil's mind is already very clear, he just wants to use our first brigade as cannon fodder!" Go and deplete the National Army! ”
"Damn, little devil, this is not going to give us a way to live."
"Big brother, otherwise we will fight against the water and stop following the devil."
"That's right, just go to the National Army, I heard others say, just a few days ago, even the bandits from the eighteen villages of Feixi joined the National Army, and they were given an independent brigade number, no matter how bad we are, we must at least be stronger than the bandits in Feixi, right? If it is established in the past, it will have to be given the number of an independent division. ”
Only one battalion commander said weakly: "Wouldn't it be better to defect to the Dameishan Independent Regiment?" ”
Lao Jiu's face immediately darkened, and several regiment commanders immediately threw murderous glances at the battalion commander, the battalion commander who spoke just now didn't know the origin of Lao Jiu, but their regiment commanders were very clear, they knew very well that everyone here could vote for the Dameishan Independent Regiment, but Lao Jiu couldn't.
The battalion commander shrunk his neck and said weakly again, "When I didn't say anything." ”
Lao Jiu said: "Then it's decided, I'll find someone to contact the national army when I go back." ”

Sihe Township, the former enemy headquarters of the 32nd Group Army.
Li Motang, Wang Xiyuan and Xia Hanzhong are high-fived each other.
Xia Hanzhong said: "I really didn't expect that the operation would be so smooth. ”
Wang Xiyuan said: "It is indeed smooth, originally I was still very worried, if it is delayed in the periphery for too long, it will inevitably affect the entire battle situation, once Xu Rui's Dameishan Independent Regiment can not withstand it, or deliberately release water, then the main force of the Kumamoto Division will soon be able to return from the front line to help, then we will fall into the dilemma of being attacked by the enemy on the back." ”
After a pause, Wang Xiyuan said again: "But now, we have successfully pulled out the strongholds on the periphery, and the soldiers are pointing directly at the gate of Feixi Town, and the situation behind is already very clear. ”
Li Motang said: "You still can't be careless, the outlying strongholds are only garrisoned by puppet troops, so it is not difficult to take it, but Feixi Town and the airport next to Feixi Town are garrisoned by elite troops of devils, if you want to take it, I am afraid it is not easy, it is completely predictable, there will be a fierce battle next." ”
"What are you afraid of?" Xia Hanzhong said hesitantly, "No matter how hard it is, can it be more difficult than the Battle of Songhu?" We have all experienced such a tragic large-scale battle as the Battle of Songhu, and we will still worry about such a battle? ”
"It's different." Li Motang shook his head and said, "The Battle of Songhu is a defensive operation, but this time it is a tough battle. ”
"If you had to say, it would be no different." Wang Dongyuan said, "In the first stage of the Battle of Songhu, isn't it also our attack and the devil's defense?" If it weren't for various restrictions, the devils stationed in Shanghai would have been driven into the Huangpu River to feed the fish, but this time, we can't repeat the mistakes of the Battle of Songhu. ”
While speaking, Xia Hanzhong's adjutant Er Jican came in and reported: "Junzao, I caught a spy and clamored to see you, and said that there was important information. (To be continued.) )
