Kinoshita took a deep breath, he knew that his words had worked, and in his current form, he could only reduce the damage to a minimum, so that Okamura Ninji could avoid the excessive punishment of the base camp, in other words, to save himself. After all, the battle plan was affirmed by the base camp, and the main reason for the failure was that although Okamura Ningji's command was improper, the base camp did not support enough, especially the two heavy artillery brigades of the strategic level that had been promised, which had not yet arrived, and they were in a hurry to achieve success, and the time given was too short, and although there were careful deployments, it was difficult for all units to form a tacit understanding in a short period of time and achieve rigorous coordinated operations, and the retreat of the 104th Division was too fast, resulting in the Sixth Division being deeply encircled. "Sir, you don't have to worry too much, one Jiang Haoran can't save China. Besides, the battle on the Manchurian-Mongolian border will begin soon, no matter what the victory or defeat, the strategic goal of the base camp will be shifted, either the victory will continue to go north, or the defeat will begin to go south, in the near future, China will not be the main battlefield of the Japanese Empire, I think, you should seize the time, prepare a detailed plan for law and order, and govern the occupied areas in Central China into an iron plate, which will definitely be recognized by the base camp and retreat to protect us! Yuki Kinoshita.

I have to say that Kinoshita Yong is still relatively smart, not to mention his tactical level, at least he is deeply embedded in the way of an official, and every time he is in a critical moment... ♂ , he can always think of a way to protect himself, the top commander of the Eleventh Army has changed several times, and it is all because of mistakes, but he, the number two person, is still immovable, this is ironclad evidence.

Okamura Ninji threw a glance of approval at Kinoshita, his eyes showed a hint of brightness, the sad expression on his face gradually eased, and he said in an extremely helpless voice: "Send a telegram to Inaba Shiro and Nakagawa Hiroshi, tell them that the 156th Division and the 157th Division have been drawn from Hangzhou, if there is no hope of breaking through, I ask them to hold on for four days, and the reinforcements will definitely arrive within four days!" Again, order Tanaka Shinichi's 104th Division to abandon the attack, retreat to Pingxiang, and wait for reinforcements to arrive before plotting! "Hail!"

At about 11 o'clock in the morning, Youxian, the joint temporary headquarters of the 3rd Division of the Nanshan Independent Army and the New Fourth Army.

Su Peng opened his military uniform and strode into the command headquarters, picked up a glass of water on the table and poured it into his mouth, and began to curse and scold before he could even his breath: "I'll wipe his mother, although the devil infantry is not good, but his mother's plane is really evil, one dive swept out three barrages, and in an instant, I tore my five soldiers to pieces, and I couldn't pick up a whole corpse, it's tragic!" I really look forward to our base being able to produce planes as soon as possible, and then we will see how we can abuse this group of eight lambs! "What? Can your 331 base produce aircraft? Luo Tingyu, secretary of the Jiangxi Prefectural Party Committee, didn't know where to come from, and looked at Su Peng and said with a shocked face. Uh・・・・・" Su Peng was suddenly speechless, this is the top secret of the 331 base, and the military seat knows that he has leaked the secret, maybe what will the braincase be knocked into? Su Peng's eyes rolled, and then he snorted and said, "I said Secretary Luo, why are you obedient and don't understand, didn't I say that I expect our base to produce aircraft?" When did we say that we could produce airplanes, isn't that a good wish? "Huh!" Luo Tingyu smiled awkwardly, then sighed, and said lonely: "Alas! If we really could produce airplanes, why would ・・・・・we be trampled on our great rivers and mountains, bullying our brothers and sisters, and occupying our homeland by the Japanese slaves of the island nation with an area of only 370,000 square kilometers and a population of only more than 70 million? Don't talk to me about these big truths, I'm just a rough person, I only care about how to kill these devils in front of me, so that I can give an account to our military seat, what else? That's all! Su Peng rudely interrupted Luo Tingyu's words and said.

Luo Tingyu's old face flushed, unconsciously moss his forehead, and sneered: "Yes, yes, General Su is right, the key issue now is to repel the enemy in front of him, the rest is really!" By the way, you just came back from the front, how is the battle ahead? "Ahem! In five hours, the Japanese army organized eight attacks, all of which were repulsed by us, and the casualties were not small! Our men have been sharply reduced by at least one-third, and your New Fourth Army has suffered even higher battle losses, and the Guangxian Brigade and District Platoon are probably close to 2,000, and only a very small part of these casualties are caused by frontal battles with devils, and most of them are killed by enemy bombing and aircraft strafing back and forth. If you want to say that the regular troops of your New Fourth Army are still fighting in war, that guy, the devil rushed to the front of your position several times, and was stunned by your big knife to reincarnate. Su Peng said.

Luo Tingyu had an imperceptible look of pride on his face, but he said with concern: "At this rate of casualties, can we hold on?" ”

Su Peng said fiercely: "If you can't hold it, you have to defend it, even if I fight my troops, I will take the staff officers of the command headquarters to be like a nail nailed to Niutouling, and never let the Japanese army move forward." ”

Luo Tingyu praised the festival: "Okay, General Su's move is worthy of being a model soldier, and I also make a statement, our New Fourth Army and county brigades and district squads, even if we fight to the last man, we will never retreat!" ”

Su Peng patted Luo Tingyu on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Secretary Luo's words are really heartwarming, but don't worry too much, didn't our military seat transfer a unit to us this morning?" Don't look at the 3,000 people, they are all elites who have lived and died with our military seat, if their reserve team is also exhausted, then we deserve to be unlucky, hahaha! ”

At this moment, a ** signal soldier stumbled in, and said in a panic: "Report to the division, the devil has sent hundreds of people to the front!" "What?" Su Peng's eyes widened, and he was furious. "Brutes, these slaves are a bunch of brutes who have lost their conscience!"

Luo Tingyu, who wore a pair of glasses and had an old pedant with a sven face, also began to be angry at this moment. "Prepare the car, go to the front!" Su Peng yelled at the attendant adjutant.

Soon, an armored command vehicle commonly used by the Japanese army stopped at the gate of the headquarters, carrying Su Peng and Luo Tingyu all the way to the front.

Niutouling, named for its main peak, is as tall as a bull's head, in fact, Niutouling is a long, narrow mountain range that lies horizontally facing west. The only road into the county passes through the ridge. Therefore, if the Japanese army wants to break through from Youxian, it must first take this position.

But at this time, Niutouling has become an insurmountable slash of the Japanese army, eight attacks have been repulsed, and each time is faster than the last, each time is more difficult than the other, the ammunition is one less than one, just relying on a few transport planes on the verge of retirement airdrop, completely unable to meet the needs of the war, can only be said to be better than nothing.

In the face of the reprimanding messages from Inaba Shiro and Nakagawa Hiroichi, the commander of the 23rd Wing of the Japanese Army, Fukuda Kanosa, was exhausted and couldn't think of a way, so he ordered the soldiers to arrest all the people in the nearby villages and form a human shield to cover the charge of the imperial army.
