"Your Excellency Division Commander, the North China Front Command has sent an urgent telegram that the main force of the armored forces of the Honorary Second Division has entered Fuping County, and they have carried out operations against the troops of the Fourth Brigade of the Independent Mixed Brigade, and the troops of the Fourth Brigade of the Independent Mixed Brigade are currently besieged in Tianshengqiao Town, Fuping County, and His Excellency the Commander has asked us to immediately transfer troops from the 21st Division and the 110th Division to reinforce the past.

A staff officer of the 1st Division immediately came to Okabe Naosaburo, and he looked at Okabe Naosaburo with an unusually serious expression.
After hearing the staff officer's report, Naosaburo Okabe had a shocked expression on his face, and he immediately took the telegram and looked at it.
When he read the contents of the message clearly, Naosaburo Okabe's brows furrowed tightly, and he handed the message to Ishihara Wanji beside him.
Ishihara took the telegram and looked at it, he immediately understood that this was Sun Weiguo's strategy, and Sun Weiguo's purpose was to let the troops of the 21st Division and the 110th Division return to Fuping County, so as to create an emptiness for the Japanese army in Wutai County, and then take action.
The troops of the 21st Division and the 110th Division were left in Wutai County by Ishihara Waner to monitor the Honorary Second Division and contain the troops of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, but Ishihara Waner did not expect that the armored troops of the Honorary Second Division would secretly go to Fuping County.
"Kaoru Kawamura is a fool, he must have taken the enemy lightly, so this situation happened. Are the North China Imperial Army all a bunch of fools? In this operation, if they could seriously carry out the order, many casualties would be unnecessary. ”
Ishihara put the message on the table, and he said in a cold tone with a dissatisfied expression on his face.
"Ishihara-kun, the independent mixed fourth brigade will definitely not be able to annihilate the Chinese troops, if the independent mixed fourth brigade is completely annihilated again, the imperial army will lose face, I am afraid that when the time comes, you and I will be held responsible." Okabe Naosaburo looked at Ishihara Waner, and he said with an unusually serious expression.
"If the troops of the 21st Division and the 110th Division return to Fuping County together, then Wutai County will not have any of our troops, and the troops of the Honorary Second Division will be able to quickly rest and recuperate, and if the troops of the First Division and other troops return to Wutai County, the troops of the 120th Division will take action behind us, so that our situation will become very passive, and we will not be able to take Wutai Mountain in a short time. If the troops of the 21st Division and the 110th Division returned to Wutai County alone, the troops of the Honorary 2nd Division would definitely take action. ”
Ishihara looked at the map, and he said with a solemn expression.
Now for Ishihara Waner, he still has five divisions in his hands, but with these five divisions and regiments at the same time to deal with the Honorary Second Division and the 120th Division, these forces seem to be too few, according to Ishihara Waner's speculation, to deal with the Honorary Second Division, if you want to annihilate them, you must have at least four divisions and regiments.
Moreover, the various divisions and regiments of the Japanese army must act together, otherwise if there is a little mistake, then they will be attacked by the honorary second division.
Sun Weiguo's command ability, this time Ishihara Waner has seen it, and he knows that Sun Weiguo's opponent is indeed terrifying.
The current situation is passive for the Japanese army, and it is difficult for Ishihara to make a choice for a while.
Because he sends any troops back to Fuping County, it will be very unfavorable for Wutai County to fight.
In fact, Ishihara also knew very well in his heart that the Japanese troops had suffered heavy casualties at this time, and now was the time to stop the war and recuperate, but he knew better that the troops of the Honorary Second Division also had certain casualties this time, and as long as the Japanese troops gritted their teeth, they would definitely be able to wipe them out.
"Commander of the Okabe Division, order the troops of the 21st Division, the 110th Division, and the 109th Division to quickly launch a fierce attack on Wutai Mountain, and the troops of the 1st Division and the 114th Division immediately return to Wutai Mountain, and we will concentrate the troops of the five divisions to storm Wutai Mountain and attract reinforcements from the Eighth Route Army in Fuping County, which is the only battle plan that is beneficial to us. Five divisions and regiments stormed Wutai Mountain, even if the combat effectiveness of the Honor Second Division is strong, we can completely annihilate it if we lose three divisions and regiments! ”
Ishihara stood up suddenly, his eyes looked towards Mount Wutai, and he said with a solemn expression.
When Okabe Naosaburo heard Ishihara's words, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, he looked at the map, and then at Ishihara Waner, but he didn't answer for a long time.
After being silent for a while, Okabe Naosaburo first got in touch with the North China Front Headquarters, this matter was too important for Okabe Naosaburo to make a decision.
At half past four in the afternoon, the command of the North China Front began to issue operational orders.
Terauchi Shouichi ordered the troops of the 1st Division, 21st Division, 109th Division, 110th Division, and 114th Division to attack Mount Wutai.
The troops of the 21st and 110th Divisions of the Japanese Army in the central part of Wutai County took the lead in advancing in the direction of Wutai Mountain, while the 109th Division of the Japanese Army in Dai County, the 1st Division and the 114th Division of the Japanese Army in Yuanping County quickly went to Wutai Mountain.
At half past five in the afternoon, the vanguard of the Japanese 21st Division began to enter the foot of Wutai Mountain, and they engaged in skirmishes with the defenders.
Wutai Mountain, Field Hospital, Sun Ziyuan, Deputy Chief of Staff of the Honorary Second Division, walked quickly to the cave where Sun Weiguo was.
A large number of Japanese bombers began to appear over Wutai Mountain, and aerial bombs were dropped as if they didn't want money.
A huge explosion sounded, and Wutai Mountain was plunged into a black smoke of gunpowder.
Sun Weiguo was protected by Wang Youhua, the leader of the guard squad, and when Sun Ziyuan came to the cave, Sun Weiguo was looking at the map.
"Division commander, the little devils have begun to attack us, according to Wang Kunyao's intelligence department, the Japanese troops have traces of assembling to Wutai Mountain one after another, and the troops of the 21st Division and the 110th Division of the Japanese Army in Wutai County have begun to come to Wutai Mountain, it seems that they are planning to attack Wutai Mountain."
After Sun Ziyuan saw Sun Weiguo, he hurriedly saluted, and then reported the situation.
"Commander, it's too dangerous here, you better follow me down." Wang Youhua said with an anxious face.
Sun Weiguo was not moved at all, his eyes were still looking towards the map.
When the Japanese bombers began to carpet bomb Wutai Mountain, Sun Weiguo realized that the Japanese troops were ready to attack Wutai Mountain.
After listening to Sun Ziyuan's report, Sun Weiguo was even more sure of this, he knew that the little devil was going to concentrate all his forces to deal with the troops of the Honorary Second Division of Wutai Mountain.
"How's the situation over there?" Sun Weiguo raised his head, he looked at Sun Ziyuan and asked.
Sun Ziyuan immediately reported the operation of Yin Jinshan's No. 1 Assault Group, and at the same time, Sun Ziyuan asked Sun Weiguo whether to send the No. 1 Assault Group to reinforce the Wutai Mountain operation.
"Send a telegram to Ge Haifeng's second assault group, and let them immediately go to Fuping County to cooperate with the first assault group." Sun Weiguo pondered slightly, and then he gave an order.
