Chapter 1496: The Sorrowful Imperial Army

If you can do it yourself, others can do it.

And strategists, how can they care about the gains and losses of a city or a place, let alone the reputation brought by a certain Japanese lieutenant general.

"In half a month, we almost defeated the Abe Norihide Division, plus more than 5,000 people from Tsuneoka's Kanji Division, we annihilated more than 20,000 enemies!"

Su Yan said happily: "If there are a few more battles like this today, I think we may not need to pay too much price to annihilate all the Abe Norihide Division and the Tsuneoka Division - when the time comes, look at those Japanese devils who are not long-eyed, dare to attack our Trojan Horse County!" ”

"Yes, yes!"

Xu Yun Niu Pimple and others also said happily: "As long as we can annihilate Changgang Kuanzhi in the future, then our surroundings, whether it is Laiyuan, Anyuan, Wei County, Hunyuan, there will be no place for the Japanese army to stand on it, and our Trojan County base area can be connected with the Niushou Mountain Base Area, which will be of great benefit to our future development......

As he spoke, several people couldn't help but look at Lu Yuan with fiery eyes.

According to their ideas, at that time, half of Hebei and half of Henan and Shanxi will be the territory of their Sichuan Army Independent Regiment, with a base of tens of millions of people.

With such a large territory and a certain industrial base, it is not difficult to do great things!

However, seeing that Lu Yuan did not make any expression of their words at all, several people could only bow their heads depressedly, after all, Lu Yuan emphasized many times that he only fought devils, and he was not interested in Chinese fighting Chinese at all.

Moreover, Lu Yuan is far less optimistic than them.

The previous battle went well, and the right time, place and people occupied the absolute factor, and in the future, the Japanese side will obviously not repeat the mistakes of the past!

Not to mention, from the beginning of the battle to the present, the troops of the Eighth Route have almost been exhausted, including the militia, there is only less than one regiment of troops left, and the strength of seven or eight thousand people in Trojan County, plus more than two thousand people who died in Anyuan, now there are only more than four thousand people left!

At present, the number of troops that can be mobilized in the county is only more than 2,000 people from the Eighth Road, and more than 4,000 people from the independent regiment of the Sichuan Army plus the four battalions of the engineer battalion and the militia, and if you count the more than 3,000 people who have been mobilized by coercion and lure from among the people who have been transferred in, there are more than 9,000 people in total!

And more than 3,000 recruits, except for the seven or eight hundred who survived the previous battle, the remaining recruits have not even been on the battlefield, and their combat effectiveness is probably not as good as a battalion!

If I had to count it, there were two women's militia brigades of 2,000 young women.

Although these women militia have also trained a lot in peacetime, they have not gone through actual combat after all, and it is not easy to say how much combat effectiveness they can exert in peacetime training, and they may not be as good as those recruits.

It's a woman, after all.

Moreover, these women are not easy either.

Nominally, their task is to protect the people's transportation team composed of the remaining people, but in fact, they themselves are also involved in transporting supplies, carrying away the wounded, etc., and they are tired enough, if possible, Lu Yuan really doesn't want to add any more burden to them.

And now, after the remnants of the Japanese army Tsuneoka Kanji and Abe Norihide converged, plus the Imperial Allied Army, there are at least 26,700 people!

With almost 10,000 combatable forces, against the more than 20,000 and 30,000 Japanese troops who had to be killed at that time, even if so many arrangements were made around Trojan County, Lu Yuan still didn't know what the final result would be.

Not to mention that he doesn't dare to be optimistic, he even has the whole army ready to do his best!

Even if all the Trojan Horse County is dead, as long as the Changgang Kuanzhi Department can be spelled out, then the large base area from Trojan Horse County to the Niushou Mountain Range can also be connected together, becoming the largest source of troops and grain and grass export in the all-out counteroffensive In addition to Sichuan, Lu Yuan feels that it is worth it!

In addition to Lu Yuan noticing the troop problem, Lei Ming and others also noticed it.

Even when Lu Yuan was thinking about this, the three of Lei Ming had already called, asking if the guns and ammunition captured in the previous battle could be allocated to them, and they wanted to go back to the rear of the Eighth Route Base Area to raise some more troops.

"It's not a person to fight, it's useful to hold a gun......"

Hearing the proposal of the three Lei Ming, Lu Yuan said: "Those people will die like dust......"

"It's better to have than nothing!"

Lei Ming and Han Xiaolei said with a smile: "Besides, you almost forced those young men who transferred over to pick up their guns and go to the battlefield, and you didn't do much better than us......

Lu Yuan smiled, he wasn't actually opposed, he was even looking forward to it, he just couldn't bear it.

In the ice and snow, Junji Midorikawa finally joined up with Tsuneoka's Kanji Department with the remaining 16,700 embarrassed and exhausted Japanese troops.

The two waves of Japanese troops who were equally embarrassed, you look at me, I look at you, thinking about the scenes encountered before, many people couldn't help but feel sad, and they almost wanted to cry.

"Do you have anything to eat......

Abe Noribu didn't know which Japanese soldier asked first, and then all the Japanese soldiers began to ask.

The Japanese puppet army of Tsuneoka's Kuanji Department had to give some of the already small rations to these Japanese soldiers, and watching these Japanese soldiers gobble up, many people began to secretly retreat and tighten their dry food bags.

No one knows when they will be able to enter Trojan County, and no one knows when they will be able to find the granary of Trojan County.

"Baga, take out the food, quickly drop!"

It was impossible for the Japanese soldiers of the Abe Norihide Division, who were not full, to ask those Japanese soldiers in the Tsuneoka Kanji Department what they wanted to eat, and they set their eyes on the still alive Imperial Allied troops in the Toneoka Kuanji Division, and some even pointed their bayonets at those Imperial Allied Army, it is certain that if those Imperial Allied troops did not take out what to eat, these Japanese soldiers would not hesitate to kill them!

"Taijun, Taijun can't, you took all the food, we won't have anything to eat......"

"Taijun, we are with you, Taijun, we are fighting with you when we fight, you can't ...... us like this"

Many Imperial Allied soldiers cried and shouted, asking for help from the Japanese soldiers they knew well, hoping that the other party would help them speak, but those Japanese soldiers who thought they had fought side by side with each other and had a lifelong friendship didn't even bother to look at them, let alone help them intercede.

Although they did fight alongside these Japanese soldiers, or there were people who saved the lives of a Japanese soldier on the battlefield.

But there will never be any Japanese army who will really regard them as their own, because they are the Imperial Allied Army, and even more because they are not Japanese - in the eyes of the Japanese army, they are just consumables, like sandbags that block bullets in front of the position.
