Chapter 656: A Sharp Turn
Originally, according to Kitahara Zhongzuo's plan, the little devils began to retreat, but at this time, the Eighth Route Army suddenly launched a counteroffensive, and the little devils did not dare to stay, and they scrambled to retreat one by one.
In this way, it is inevitable that the troops will be disorganized.
Seeing that his soldiers were in a mess, Kitahara Nakasa was so angry that he scolded: "Yagaya Road! Is this still my Imperial Japanese soldier? It's just a rabble. ”
"Your Excellency Nakasa's anger is relieved!" A devil officer next to him hurriedly comforted.
"Humph!" Kitahara Nakasa snorted coldly and said, "Send the order down immediately, and stabilize my position!" Be sure to hold on! There must be no messing. ”
As a commander, and a commander with a wealth of experience in warfare, Kitahara knew exactly what would happen if this chaotic situation was allowed to continue.
However, Kitahara Nakasa may have forgotten that once this kind of chaos appears, it will be difficult to undo. Especially in this passive disadvantage, this situation is even more difficult to stop.
Kitahara Nakasa tried to stop the current chaos, and although there was some effect, the effect was not obvious.
As the Eighth Route Army continued to approach, the chaotic situation of the little devils still continued, and a large number of devil soldiers retreated eastward along the highway in a chaotic manner.
Kitahara Nakasa was even a little desperate, when a devil officer ran over and brought even more desperate news.
"Your Excellency, the retreat of the imperial army was blocked by the Eighth Route Army, and the Eighth Route Army on both flanks also suddenly launched an attack on the imperial army, and the imperial army fell into the siege of the Eighth Route Army on all sides." The little devil officer said in a panic.
"Bagaya Road~!" Kitahara Nakasa couldn't help but scold, and then ordered loudly: "Pass my order, give me an attack!" In any case, I must break through the defense line of the Eighth Route Army and break through for me. ”
"Hello!" The little devil officer hurriedly answered, turned around and ran to deliver the order.
Under the orders of Kitahara Nakasa, the little devils launched a fierce offensive against the Eighth Route Army, which was blocking their retreat.
And this Eighth Route Army is the reconnaissance company, special service company and cavalry company of the independent regiment of the Eighth Route Army.
More than 300 fighters from the reconnaissance company and the special service company formed a temporary line of defense, and the firepower of these two companies was very strong.
In the dense gunfire, the bullets were like raindrops, constantly shooting towards the little devils, and the little devils who rushed up fell one after another under the rain of bullets of the Eighth Route Army, and the ground was soon covered with a layer of devil corpses.
No matter how crazy the little devils attacked, they couldn't break through the defense line of the Eighth Route Army at all.
The cavalry company was placed on the two wings of the spy company and the reconnaissance company, and was specially designed to deal with the small group of devils who tried to make a detour from the two wings.
The three companies cooperated with each other tacitly, blocking the little devil's retreat, making it difficult for the devil to take half a step back.
At the same time, the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and three main infantry battalions of the Independent Regiment gradually converged from the other three directions and launched the most fierce attack on the little devils in the encirclement.
At this time, Kitahara Nakasa was completely desperate, and although the situation in front of him was dangerous, he couldn't wait for death!
The old devil hesitated for a moment, and then ordered loudly: "Everyone listen to my order, immediately turn from attack to defense, seize the advantageous terrain on the spot, block the attack of the Tuba Road, defend on the spot, and wait for reinforcements!" It didn't take long for our reinforcements to arrive, and as soon as the reinforcements arrived, the final victory would definitely belong to our Imperial Army of the Great Japanese Empire, long live His Majesty the Emperor, long live the Imperial Army of the Great Japanese Empire! ”
Don't look at the little devil's way of boosting morale, it's a bit almost idiotic, but it still has some effect on a brain-dead like a little devil.
With the order of Kitahara Nakasa, the little devils immediately stopped their fearless breakthrough and began to turn to defense on the spot, looking for favorable terrain on the spot to block the attack of the Eighth Route Army.
Kitahara Nakasa quickly hid in a safe place with the people of the command, and the old devil couldn't wait to say: "Quick! Quickly send a telegram to General Nakanishi, saying that our unit is under siege by the Eighth Route Army, and the situation is extremely critical, and I request Your Excellency the Commander to send troops to support as soon as possible. ”
"Hello~!" The correspondent hurriedly answered, and a few little devils hurriedly re-set up the radio station, and then sent the telegram.
The telegram soon reached Cangzhou City, and in the headquarters of Nakanishi Kisada, Suzuki Osa was shocked after receiving the telegram, and hurriedly took the telegram and hurriedly went to find Nakanishi Kisada.
At this time, the old devil was sitting in his office drinking tea leisurely, only to see the door suddenly open, and Suzuki Osa broke in in a hurry.
"Your Excellency General, something is wrong, Beiyuan-kun has just sent a telegram saying that they are under siege by the Eighth Route Army, and the current situation is very critical, please ask for urgent tactical guidance!" Suzuki Daisa said anxiously.
"Nani?" Nakanishi Xizhen couldn't help but be stunned on the spot, and the teacup in her hand fell to the ground weakly.
"Smack~!" With a thud, the exquisite teacup fell to the ground and shattered into a cloud of exquisite ceramic shards.
Nakanishi Kizhen stood up with a 'pout' and asked with a face full of disbelief, "How can this be?" How could the situation suddenly deteriorate? What's going on here? ”
Nakanishi Xizhen really couldn't understand it, it was okay just now, everything was normal on the North Plains side, but in the blink of an eye, the North Plains' troops were actually encircled, and an urgent telegram for help was sent, which showed that their situation was already very critical, otherwise the North Plains would not be in a hurry to ask for help.
Suzuki Osa said hesitantly: "The specific situation is not very clear, but since Kitahara-kun has sent a telegram asking for help, it means that the situation is already very critical." ”
"Humble speculation that under the threat of the Imperial Army's army and aviation, the Eighth Route Army could only stop the attack on the Shawa Imperial Army. But these dirt roads were not idle, taking advantage of this vacancy, they quietly moved to the area of Xiejia Village and surrounded Beiyuan Jun's troops, so this situation would happen. Suzuki Osa said quickly.
Nakanishi Kizhen frowned and thought about it, maybe this was the only reasonable explanation, but the most important thing was that Kitahara's troops were indeed in danger.
Nakanishi Xizhen didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly asked, "What about the imperial army of the latest wing?" ”
"We're already on our way to the sand holes." Suzuki Osa hurriedly replied.
"Suzuki-kun, please send them a telegram immediately, urging them to rush to the front line of Xiejia Village as soon as possible. In addition, please run away in person, catch up with this unit, personally command the troops, and in any case, you must rescue Kitahara-kun and Fujino-kun's troops. Nakanishi Xizhen hurriedly said.
