However, when the battle report of Hukou Pass was uploaded to the Chief's Department layer by layer, the high-level officials were relieved!

Those devils who were surrounded and annihilated were equipped and dressed up, and it was obvious that they were the swordsman who reported the swordsman's unit!

In this way, the newspapers in China will inevitably use the corpses and equipment of those devils.

Various newspapers have reprinted about the battle at Hukouguan Dam, and with those photos as evidence, the devil can't deny it at all.

Of course, it is naturally impossible for the devil to admit it, and since then, public opinion on both sides will inevitably break out into a wave of controversy around the Yidaoliu United!

In fact, that team of devils is indeed the devils of the Yidaoliu United, and they originally hoped to use the Hukou Valley Dam to blow up their own name, and take a step closer to the myth of the Yidaoliu United.

It's just that the devils never thought that their actions would fail.

Not only did they fail, but even those dozens of corpses were not snatched back, but they became the best weapons for the Chinese people to attack them!

Don't underestimate public opinion, in fact, the influence of public opinion is still very large, and through public opinion, you can very well boost your own morale or hit the morale of the enemy, so that it has a direct impact on the entire war.

Public opinion in the mainland of China is the best example, from pessimism to passion, and then to today's high morale, it can be said that this is also the view of the entire battlefield soldiers on this battlefield!

Of course, public opinion belongs to public opinion, and the real absolute victory or defeat of the war is always on the front line, in the fighting of the soldiers!

And not relying on the lips of journalists to be able to decide the outcome of the war!

……

In Hukou Valley, the troops who came from all over the country have completed the deployment, and of course, the dam is naturally the focus of defense.

At the same time, the devil's attack also began to break out, after all, today's Hukou Valley base can be said to be a very important existence for both the devil and Huaxia!

In the Devil's Front Command Headquarters, dozens of Devil officers are gathering together.

This group of devils is almost all the officers above the brigade commander of the 12th Army of the North China Front Army!

Jiichi Tsuchihashi sat on the main seat and was listening to the report of his subordinates!

As the commander of the Twelfth Army, in fact, Tsuchihashi Jiichi was in a rather bad mood at this time!

He was stationed in Jinan at the beginning, it can be said that the environment is much better in all aspects, and then the base camp ordered his twelfth army to move to Shijiazhuang, and he also admitted it, although the environment is a little worse, but at least it can be passed, but now it is good, he was actually dispatched to Songta Town by the base camp!

It's such a small town with nothing, and his entire Twelfth Army has to be stationed!

Even if his Twelfth Army has been disrupted due to the loss and replenishment of the previous battles, and there are four divisions under its nominal command, only one of them can be called elite, and the other three divisions are all garrison divisions, with fewer soldiers and much worse equipment!

However, in any case, his Twelfth Army had more than 70,000 people!

Moreover, unlike the previous Anda Twenty-Three, Anda Twenty-Three nominally commanded more than 100,000 people, but he was not a military commander after all, and at most he only had the right to coordinate various troops, but he was different from Tuqiao, he had his own army headquarters, and he had absolute command over the 70,000 people under him!

The 70,000 people stationed in such a small town of Songta now gave him a daily headache for the army's logistics, after all, most of his supplies came from Shijiazhuang, and because of transportation, his supplies could only be transported by car.

The guerrillas of those people attacked his convoys from time to time, and during this time, he was simply anxious!

Fortunately, the base camp finally remembered their Twelfth Army, and this time the attack on the Hukou Valley base was in charge of their Twelfth Army.

Tsuchihashi naturally didn't have any doubts, in his eyes, with the warriors under his command, it was a simple matter to take down this Hukou Valley.

So he didn't participate in the arguments of his subordinates, he just watched!

At this time, dozens of devil officers present were arguing about how to attack Hukou Valley.

Broadly speaking, they have two different tactical ideas.

After all, although the Hukou Valley base is only one, if you want to attack Hukou Valley, you will inevitably need to engage other troops around!

The focus of the debate among the devil officers is whether to fight steadily or to take risks and surprise attacks!

Some devils believe that after all, Huaxia has arranged many troops around, and once they attack, then it is inevitable that the surrounding Huaxia army will urgently support, so that the scope of the battle will be expanded, according to their actual situation, this part of the devil officers believes that they need to advance steadily and take all the positions of the Huaxia army around the Hukou Valley!

But the other part of the devil officers don't think so, in their eyes, the combat effectiveness of the Huaxia army is limited, if they can concentrate the elite and break through directly in the middle, it is not that they can't take the Hukou Fortress, and the defense after winning it is not a problem!

The reason why Jiichi Tsuchihashi didn't say anything, but let his subordinates argue, was actually mainly because no matter what the two sides thought, they were both the main ones after all, and no one was afraid of war.

The two sides argued, but in the end, everyone's eyes were focused on Tsuchihashi Jiichi.

Tsuchihashi Jiichi likes this feeling very much, no matter how these subordinates argue, he is always the one who makes the final decision, and once he makes a decision, basically no one will object.

Tuqiao came to the side of the sand table and looked at the flag on the sand table carefully, and the sand table vividly simulated the map within the scope of this battle, where the mountains and valleys were at a glance, which allowed them to clearly understand the battlefield.

And the flag represents a detachment of troops!

Hukou Valley is under the protection of the Huaxia army, but in front of him, there is actually only a weak line of defense.

Tsuchihashi carefully observed the sand table, and recalled the various arguments put forward by his subordinates during the argument before, and he felt that this time, he could not despise the Shina!

Because there have been many colleagues who have used their own failures to provide him with a lesson from the past!

Today's people are no longer the people of the previous China, so to speak, they also have the will to fight, and they are no longer the kind of troops that will collapse at the touch of a button.

Therefore, when he assigns combat missions, he also needs to take this into account!
