The strength of a regiment was urgently sent out by two people to reinforce Dangshan.

But when the reinforcements set off, Zhang Zizhong and Pang Bingxun's hearts sank suddenly, and their faces were gloomy and a little terrifying.

They know that even if they rush over now, they are afraid that it will be too late!

At this time, Dangshan, I'm afraid it has been lost!

And the Japanese army doesn't know how many people broke through Dangshan!

Sure enough, when the reinforcements arrived at Dangshan, they found only corpses all over the ground, and the defenders stationed in Dangshan had two battalions, all of which were killed in battle, and no one survived.

After the regiment commander who led the reinforcements to rush to see this scene, he was already mentally prepared, but he was still angry, and hurriedly ordered the troops to be stationed on the spot, tie up the gaps, and prevent the Japanese from continuing to break through here, and then let some soldiers turn over the corpses one by one to see if there were any alive.

After rummaging around, he finally found a soldier who was seriously wounded and dying, and the regiment commander hurried over to inquire about the battle.

Through the mouth of this soldier, it was learned that a wing of the Japanese army had broken through from here.

After getting the news, the regiment commander didn't have time to be shocked and hurriedly passed the situation to Pang Bingxun and Zhang Zizhong, who were waiting anxiously in the command headquarters at this time.

When they heard that a soldier from a wing of the Japanese army had broken through, the two were also shocked.

"Fuck! I didn't expect to be deceived by a simple trick of the little devil to turn the tiger away from the mountain! What a fucking nest fire! After hearing the news, Pang Bingxun smashed it on the table and said with a curse.

Zhang Zizhong said: "Don't sulk yet!" The little devil ran out with a wing, if you don't watch out for it, I'm afraid it will be a bad thing! Let's hurry up and report this news to Chief Li! ”

When he said this, Zhang Zizhong sighed quietly.

Pang Bingxun is angry, why is he not angry?

But at the same time of anger, there is also some helplessness in my heart, and there is some faint pessimism.

The Battle of Xuzhou was a battle in which they were finally able to see the hope of winning in a large-scale battle, but until now, there have been frequent accidents, and Zhang Zizhong is really afraid that this battle will end in failure.

If that's the case, then it's definitely a big blow to them!

However, these are not things that he can think about right now!

The only thing he can do is to report the news to Li Zongren, the commander of the Fifth Theater of Operations, as soon as possible, so that he can react quickly in case something unexpected happens.

After letting the soldiers send a telegram, Zhang Zizhong glanced at the battlefield outside, and couldn't help but think in his heart: "I hope everything is still in time!" ”

……

On the road from Linyi to Taierzhuang, a Japanese army was marching rapidly.

This Japanese army was different from other troops, their equipment was very light, there were basically no heavy weapons, even light and heavy machine guns were very good, and this unit was still marching in a hurry under the constant urging of the officers.

It looked like a defeated army.

A Japanese general led by him was holding a command knife in his hand, and after glancing at the rear where no one was chasing him, he let out a long breath in his heart, and showed a relaxed look on his face.

"It seems that the Chinese army will not chase after it!"

The officer who spoke was none other than the division commander of the 5th Division of the Japanese Army, Seishiro Itagaki!

Under Nakagawa Yoshio's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, he led the 21st Wing to attack the weak defense line of the Shina Army, although they suffered from the opponent's stubborn defense, causing them to lose a lot of manpower, but finally succeeded in breaking through.

As long as it comes out, it's already half the battle!

asked his subordinates to count the manpower, and found that when breaking through, in such a short period of time, the 21st Wing had damaged nearly 500 people, and this casualty also made Itagaki Seishiro couldn't help frowning.

Although on the surface, their losses are much less than the losses of the two battalions of the Chinese army, but you must know that just a few months ago, at the time of the Battle of Songhu, the battle loss ratio between China and Japan was still at the stage of 1:5 or even 1:10, but now, it can reach a ratio of 1:3 or even 1:2, which is not a good sign for their empire!

"The resistance of the Chinese army is getting stronger and stronger!" Thinking back to the previous breakthrough time, it was clear that only two battalions of the Zhina Army were stationed, but in the face of the fierce attack of an entire wing of the empire, they were stunned that no one retreated, and all of them died on the battlefield!

Such a result, Rao is Itagaki Seishiro is also a little unexpected.

He didn't expect that the Shina Army would be so strong, and he didn't expect that the will to resist would be so strong, and such a will to resist made Itagaki Seishiro a little worried in his heart.

If all the troops of the Chinese army were determined to die like this, would their empire really be able to conquer China? Even if it is conquered, at what cost?

These are all things that their empire needs to think about!

Thinking of this, Seishiro Itagaki let out a long sigh and glanced into the distance, and his originally frowning brows were also stretched.

Regardless of the future, these issues are not for him to consider at the moment!

At present, the most important thing is to rush to Taierzhuang as soon as possible, and when the Chinese army has not yet reacted and mobilizes heavy troops to encircle and suppress him, join the Taierzhuang battlefield, and then kill Chen Qingzhi and the independent brigade!

That's his most important task right now!

Thinking of this, Seishiro Itagaki dispelled all the messy thoughts in his mind, then looked ahead, waved his hand, and shouted loudly: "Order the troops, speed up, and arrive at Taierzhuang as soon as possible!" ”

"Hey!"

Hearing Itagaki Seishiro's words, several little devil officers bowed down and responded respectfully.

The 21st Wing continued to march towards the Taierzhuang area, and at the same time, the news that a Japanese wing had broken through also reached the general headquarters of the Fifth Theater.

After getting the news, Li Zongren attached great importance to it.

After all, this is a wing under the jurisdiction of the Fifth Division of the Japanese Army, known as the 'Steel Army', and its combat effectiveness should not be underestimated.

Therefore, after Li Zongren got the news, his first reaction was to find out!

Be sure to find out about this wing!
