The Japanese troops outside Dongjiang County, as well as the Japanese troops in Cangshui who were panicked like lost dogs, were all about to collapse.

Of course, the most devastated are Yoshikawa Sadasa and Akira.

"How can this be, how can this be ......"

Seeing the secret reports sent back by Sakai and Kudo from the Jindong base respectively, Zhaoming's expression was like that of a male dog in heat and then smacked someone on the head, not only his face was extremely ugly, but what was even more terrifying was his mental state!

His appearance makes people can't help but worry, worried that he will not be able to withstand this cruel blow and collapse directly!

If it was in the past, Yoshikawa Sadazo would have persuaded a few words on the side.

But now, he obviously didn't care about persuading Zhaoming, because the development of the situation had been so bad that it was far beyond his expectations!

He originally thought that no matter how Zhang Ran mobilized the resources in his hands, but Zhang Ran only had two counties after all, and his troops dispatched nearly 10,000 Japanese troops in two ways.

Therefore, even at the beginning, because the Jindong detachment used a large number of mines and took advantage of its familiarity with the terrain, it harassed the attacking army in various ways and cleared all kinds of strong walls......

In Yoshikawa's view, this is not a problem!

Because in front of tens of thousands of troops, this kind of piecemeal sneak attack trick could not prevent the defeat of the Jindong detachment at all!

Just like a strong man in a contest with a child, no matter how many punches the child jumps up and down, as long as the strong man hits the child, he can make the opponent never get up again!

But he never expected that in just one night, the situation would change abruptly!

Kudo Tojo, who was defeated head-on by the Jindong detachment outside Cangshui County, has even reached the point where he has to survive without stopping!

The Sakai Ekou Division had stronger troops and successfully occupied the county seat of Dongjiang, and a fulcrum of the two-front operation of this campaign, which was originally thought to be a fulcrum, had been successfully erected......

But who knows, Zhang Ran set a fire in Cangshui County, and the army of more than 6,000 people in Sakai and Jiangkou was directly burned to the ground!

He couldn't imagine what it would be like for more than 5,000 people to be burned to varying degrees or injured by other circumstances......

He only knew that although the five or six thousand people at the mouth of the Sakai River now seemed to be quite a few people, in fact, they had lost any attack ability except for the temporary stubborn defense of the Dongjiang county town that was almost in ruins and waiting for reinforcements......

Of course, just holding on to it is not the way to go!

Because the grain and grass they carry with the army will last for ten days at most!

Ten days' rations are definitely not enough for so many wounded people to recover from their injuries and restore their combat strength!

Of course, what is even more terrifying is that the bedding and other cold things carried by Sakai's department are seriously scarce, and the weather is getting colder and colder!

Thousands of people were wearing burned tattered military uniforms, and he didn't know how the other party should spend the cold night!

"Yoshikawa-kun, what should we do now, what should we do now?"

Zhao Ming couldn't stop screaming, and his face was full of six gods and no master.

"Calm down!"

The angry Yoshikawa Sadazo couldn't take care of it anymore, and slapped Zhaoming hard with a slap in the face, and roared: "You are the commander of Lingjiang, the dignified major general of the empire, can you not mess with yourself?" Have you ever thought that thousands of troops in our empire are trapped in enemy territory, waiting for us to find a way to rescue them - if you and I are in chaos, then Sakai Eguchi Kudo and them will really be finished! ”

"Yes, yes, calm, calm ......"

The hot stinging pain on his face finally brought Zhaoming, who was almost collapsed, back to his senses, and began to desperately knock on his head to think of a way - it's just that in his current state, it is obviously impossible to come up with any effective solutions!

"If Okada-kun is here, he must be ten thousand times stronger than this self-righteous waste who was self-righteous before he fought and caught blind as soon as he fought!"

Looking at Akira's appearance, Yoshikawa Sadazo couldn't help but think about what would happen if he had tried his best to stop Terauchi and Lieutenant General Gangmura when he was blinded by this guy's rhetoric, and strongly supported Okada to continue as the commander of Lingjiang?

He was sure that if Okada was still around, the situation would definitely be better than what it was now!

Only now, it's too late to regret it!

At the beginning, Okada just noticed that the Jindong detachment was not easy to deal with, so he took the opportunity to get out, and now in this situation, as long as Okada is not stupid, it is impossible to come back!

As for the rest of the generals, it is impossible to stand up at this time and replace Zhaoming to take over the mess here!

"It seems that this Lingjiang can only rely on me - I, Yoshikawa Sadasa, must turn the tide!"

Thinking of this, Yoshikawa Sadazo roared in his heart, and then issued a series of orders!

"Sakai and Jiangkou Division, based on Dongjiang County, will make every effort to fortify the defense, rest on the spot, and strive to let the wounded recover from their injuries as soon as possible, and at the same time, arm the Jindong detachment in Cangshui to form a containment ......"

"At the same time, Kudo, Tojo Division, must do whatever it takes, must take the stronghold of Giejiaoya, use Giejiaoya as the fulcrum, and at the same time wait for the opportunity to take the boat stopping river, open up the communication line between Cangshui and the Dongjiang River, and the mouth of the Sakai River of the Dongjiang River, forming an echoing trend!"

At the same time, the peripheral supply team will try their best to transport the necessary materials to Sakai and Kudo, and must make every effort to ensure the smooth flow of supplies!

Although the army has suffered unprecedented setbacks now, as long as these three points are achieved, the two armies will definitely be able to recover their vitality as soon as possible and be fully prepared for the next decisive battle with the Jindong detachment!

These arrangements are reasonable.

Although there is not much to show, every aspect has been taken into account.

After reading these orders, several staff officers couldn't help but admire Yoshikawa Sadasa, because they knew that even if Lieutenant General Okamura, who was known as a new generation of military gods, came here, he was afraid that he would not be able to do better than Yoshikawa Sadasa......

But at the same time, they are not without doubts!

Although there were many wounded and the combat strength of the Sakai side was greatly damaged, the number was still there after all.

Although the county seat of Dongjiang has been burned to the ground, those ruins and broken walls can be regarded as ready-made fortifications, plus there are so many artillery fires and tanks, it should not be difficult to withstand the attack of the Jindong detachment and wait for reinforcements on the spot......

The problem is on Kudo Tojo's side!

Now they have all begun to break their tails to survive, and they have obviously turned into frightened birds under the onslaught of the Jindong detachment!

Whether it was Giejiaoya or the Stopping Boat River, it was a strong fortress that the Jindong detachment had painstakingly operated for more than a year, and it was not easy for them to capture any of them......

In addition to this, there is a more important question!

That's the problem of supply!

At this stage, the supply of the imperial army is already quite difficult!

The vast majority of the imperial army went out to fight, and the supplies they carried were the supplies they could get, and the remaining deficiencies had to be solved by collecting them on the spot!

Before setting out on the expedition, no one thought that the Jindong detachment's plan to clear the field would be carried out so thoroughly, not to mention the supply of rice and grain on the spot, and even drinking water could not be guaranteed......

Now in the situation of the two teams, there is no possibility of defeating the Jindong detachment in a short period of time, and it is impossible to supply on the spot......

Then the only way is to send supplies in from outside!

At this point, although Yoshikawa Sadazo has already made arrangements, but the arrangement is one thing, and it is another!

After all, if the Jindong detachment was so resolute in carrying out the plan of the fortified wall, it would never let the supplies be smoothly transported to the Sakai Eguchi and Kudo Tojo!
