After receiving a telegram from the brigade commander of the brigade commander, Major General Honkawa Province, the commander of the 119th Wing of the Japanese Army, Ishida Kinzo Daisa, knew that the air force would soon rush to the battlefield again to assist in the battle, and that the 136th Wing would also send troops to copy the rear road of the enemy in front of him, and cooperate with himself to encircle the Eighth Route Army, which had caused heavy losses to the Imperial Army.

Considering that the first brigade was indeed disabled and had no more power to attack, Ishida Jinzo immediately ordered the first brigade to gather the remnants, urgently marshall, and after the defense was handed over to the second brigade that arrived later, he would march south along the mill ditch to the Xiushui River valley, seize the commanding heights west of the Xiushui River, and plan for the second brigade to fight and close the passage for the Eighth Route Army to flee west across the river.

Ishida Jinzo ordered the captain of the 2nd Infantry Brigade, whose face was swollen and swollen, to quickly lead the 2nd Brigade to Nianzigou Village, rendezvous with the 1st Brigade, and take over the 1st Brigade's leading attack mission.

The 3rd Brigade was ordered to send a squadron to make a three-kilometer detour to the north along the mountain beam at its feet, find a path in the back ditch of Nianzigou, climb the opposite mountain beam, and cut off the passage for the Eighth Route Army to block the escape of the troops to the northeast.

The artillery squadron of the wing, the infantry artillery squadron, and the artillery squads of the second and third brigades were ordered to concentrate artillery fire on the blocking positions of the Eighth Route Army, cooperate with the aviation forces, suppress the Eighth Route Army, make it dare not show its head, and unable to go to its positions, and cover the second infantry brigade to quickly seize the blocking positions of the Eighth Route Army on the mountain beam.

The other three infantry squadrons, heavy machine gun squadrons, and transport squadrons of the 3rd Brigade acted with the wing headquarters and acted as reserves.

This Ishida Kinzo is worthy of being a veteran officer who graduated from the 19th Infantry Section of the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer School, started as a second lieutenant, and has been immersed in the Japanese army for 30 years.

Ishida Jinzo already knew very well in his heart that the blocking troops of the Eighth Route Army must be hiding in the sheltered fortifications behind the mountain beams, and as soon as their troops attacked, they would rush to the position to block the attack. As soon as their troops retreated, the Eighth Route Army withdrew its positions and went to hide, allowing its artillery coverage to fall short, wasting the precious war resources of the Great Japanese Empire.

It's not that Ishida Jinzo is smart, but that he traveled all the way, and when he saw the remains of the Japanese soldiers and the dead of the Eighth Route Army, he muttered in his heart. Because this phenomenon is not normal, 100% abnormal!

Ishida Jinzo knows very well that the soldiers of his 119th Wing are all reservists of the Ninth Division, all of whom are about 30 years old, and they all have wives and children, and when it comes to offensive spirit, they are definitely not as good as those young soldiers of the permanent division who are about 20 years old and are willing to serve His Majesty the Emperor, but when it comes to the level of archery and assassination skills, they are no worse than the young soldiers of the permanent division. The Eighth Route Army's blocking force crippled the 1st Infantry Brigade and lost its combat effectiveness, but it did not leave a single corpse of its own, which shows that they were well concealed, attacked very suddenly, and had very fierce firepower, forming an absolute superiority in firepower over the attacking troops of the 1st Brigade in a local scope, so that the soldiers of the 1st Brigade attacking troops did not have time to shoot accurately. Otherwise, with the accurate shooting skills of the well-trained soldiers of the First Brigade, it is impossible for the Eighth Route Army not to leave the remains of the war dead!

There is a saying in China, which is called killing 1,000 enemies and injuring 800 yourself, and that is the law of war. Isn't the current situation clearly inconsistent with the laws of war?

Moreover, the aviation has already bombed several times, and nothing has been seen. The Eighth Route Army should fight and block, and the attacking troops of the First Brigade should suffer losses and suffer losses! This shows that the Eighth Route Army must have built bunkers behind the mountain beams that could evade artillery shells and aerial bombs. Otherwise, the plane will find theirs.

I am afraid that someone with a heart will scrutinize everything, and no matter how perfect the scam is, it can't stand scrutiny. However, this Ishida Kanazo is still an officer who graduated from the army non-commissioned officer school and has served in the Japanese army for 30 years, and he has a lot of experience.

Seeing through is only one aspect, and it depends on whether Ishida Kanzo has a way to turn his battle plan into a result.

It's a pity that Ishida doesn't know who the commander of the Eighth Route Army he is facing is. If he had known that Xiao Siming was a special operations elite and training staff officer of the Chinese army in the 21st century, I am afraid that he would not have given the order to attack so quickly, on the contrary, he would have fought more conservatively, waiting for the 136th Wing to arrive to form an encirclement and then attack.

After giving the battle order, Ishida Kanazo looked at the Swiss gold watch on his wrist, which happened to be exactly 2:30 p.m.

Ishida Jinzo thought silently in his heart, it's not bad, end the battle in an hour, and rush to Yuxian City to camp at night without delay, you can enjoy the fresh flesh of the flower girl in Shina!

As for whether the blocking force of the Eighth Route Army would retreat under the continuous bombing of many sorties by the air force, Ishida Jinzo did not even think about it. He knew that it was broad daylight, and no matter how familiar the terrain and how fast the Eighth Route Army was, it would not be as fast as the airborne machine gun bullets of the Japanese Army Air Force!

Ishida Jinzo didn't want to think about it, his 119th Wing wore Japanese military uniforms, and the blocking troops of the Eighth Route Army also wore Japanese military uniforms. Fortunately, it was said earlier that the Japanese planes concentrated on bombing the mountain beam northwest of Nianzigou, which was guarded by the Eighth Route Army, according to his wishes, and the blocking troops of the Eighth Route Army, who would definitely be able to fight, stayed behind the mountain beam and did not dare to show their heads. Once the second brigade of his 119th Wing rushed to the mountain beam, the Eighth Route Army was counterattacking with the anti-cline position, and the two armies were killed together. Could it be that the Japanese machine is going to blow up the second brigade of his 119th Wing? Aren't the Japanese pilots afraid that they will bomb the 119th Wing by mistake and go back to be sanctioned?

Again, at this time, the Japanese army's infantry drill did not have the name of the anti-cline position, and Ishida Kanazo did not know that he could still rely on the anti-cline position to lay fire traps, and the ignorant were fearless!

What Ishida Jinzo thought was that once the Japanese army occupied Shanliang, it would change the offensive and defensive situation and take the initiative, and if the Eighth Route Army wanted to counterattack, it would have to fill it with human lives. That hit his heart, he has absolute confidence, in front of the guns of the second brigade of warriors, the Eighth Route Army can only be annihilated! Yes, it can only be annihilated!

The ignorant are fearless, really the ignorant are fearless!

With the order of Ishida Kanazo, the Japanese army began to move. The second brigade began to touch towards Nianzigou Village, this group of old devils, really frightened by the Eighth Route Army, did not have any squad along the main road to advance as a team, but along the ditch on the hillside, one by one, one by one, holding guns, bending over, looking around, for fear that their posture was high, and they were seen by the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side, and a string of machine gun bullets flew to send them back to the East.

The 4th Infantry Squadron of the 3rd Brigade also went into action. This group of devils was fast, they quickly jumped to the side of the mountain beam, no longer worried about the bullets of the Eighth Route Army, and then began to march rapidly, really around three kilometers, and quickly climbed over the mountain beam, along the trench on the hillside to the back ditch of the Nianzigou, ready to climb along the hillside to the mountain beam where the Eighth Route Army's blocking position was located, and attack in a roundabout way.

Only the 1st Brigade in Nianzigou was slow to move and remained in the village, saying that the losses of the troops were too great, not to mention the dead, and the remnants of the surviving infantry squadron of 100 people were all rolled down the hillside, and everyone was wounded, and in any case it could no longer carry out the task of capturing the commanding heights on the west bank of the Xiushui River Valley. Moreover, the heavy machine guns of the machine gun squadron need to be carried by four people, the infantry guns need to be towed by pack horses, and the road to the Xiushui River Valley is a rugged road, which cannot be crossed at all. Wait, wait, anyway, the first brigade is only willing to stay in Nianzigou Village to rest, and is not willing to participate in the attack operation.

This is really a strange thing in the Japanese army with strict military orders, but it happened!

The captain of the second brigade of the Japanese army asked the captain of the first brigade what was going on, did he want to disobey orders on the battlefield?

The captain of the first brigade said with a sad face that the problem was not with him, it was not that he wanted to disobey orders on the battlefield, but that the squadron leader and squad leader could not command their own soldiers. There was no way, he had already organized the soldiers who had retreated into the 100th into an infantry squadron, and had already equipped them with the guns carried by the transport team that were ready to make up for the battle damage, and appointed Hideaki Yamada, the only surviving squadron leader in the four squadrons, as the captain, and also appointed three squad leaders, but he couldn't command these soldiers.

The face of the captain of the second brigade was swollen and swollen by Ishida Jinzo's slap, and the expression on his face when he spoke was particularly hideous and terrifying: "Arrest the soldiers who don't listen to the command, and they will all die!" ”

The captain of the first brigade said: "It's not that simple. The soldier who took the lead in not carrying out the order was called Kazuo Yamano, who was the eldest son of a factory owner in Kanazawa before he was drafted into the army. Squadron Leader Hideaki Yamada's father and brother are employees of this factory, and they all rely on Kazuo Yamano's family to take care of them! How could Hideaki Yamada agree to arrest Kazuo Yamano and shoot him? ”

The captain of the second brigade lost his temper when he heard this, and there are many such things in his brigade, and there is a certain squadron leader who washes the feet and squeezes toothpaste every day for one of his soldiers! Isn't it weird!

The two captains discussed for a while, and knew that His Excellency the Wing Commander's orders must still be carried out, and the Eighth Route Army on the mountain beam must also be eliminated. There was really no way, so it was decided to organize a small team from the soldiers involved in the first brigade to carry out the task of capturing the commanding heights on the west bank of the Xiushui River.

This infantry squad pieced together by the first brigade finally set off from Nianzigou Village!
