Chapter 404: Commander's Commendation

Kunomura Momoyo had a distrust of the 7th Cavalry Division and the 9th Cavalry Division, and he was also very dissatisfied with them, he felt that if these two divisions could play a normal combat effectiveness, then Sun Weiguo's troops would definitely be severely damaged, but these two cavalry divisions were completely mixed in number, and the battle with Sun Weiguo's troops was almost a touch of collapse.

After giving the stern military order, Kunomura Momoyo sat down in a chair, took a sip of his tea, and stared at the map on the table.

He imagined himself as Sun Weiguo, he looked at the location of Baode County, thinking about what kind of reaction Sun Weiguo would make, one by one the battle plans appeared in the mind of Kunomura Momoyo, and he began to carefully analyze these battle plans, he felt that the best way for Sun Weiguo at present was to fight in a roundabout way.

Looking at the north bank of the Zhujiachuan River, a faint smile appeared on the face of Kunomura Momoyo, and he couldn't help but have a slight smug expression on his face.

Sun Weiguo, who was regarded as a strong enemy by the Japanese army in North China, was intercepted by him on the south bank of the Zhujiachuan River, even though Sun Weiguo had a strong army, but they could not take any action for a while, which made Kunomura Momoyo inevitably have a sense of pride in his heart.

"Send a telegram to Division Commander Cai and ask his Ninth Division to closely reconnoiter the security on the left side of the position, and it is very likely that the Chinese troops will conduct a roundabout operation here. Tell Division Commander Cai that a large number of reinforcements are already on the way, as long as he pays attention to vigilance, we will definitely be able to wipe out Sun Weiguo's troops this time. Kunomura Momoyo immediately gave the order and said.

"Hey, Co-Captain." The staff officer immediately agreed, and after saluting Momoyo Kunomura, the staff officer immediately left the room.

"Sun Weiguo, you have no other way to choose this time except for a roundabout battle, if you cross the river from the front and attack, I will be able to wipe out your troops without much effort. When your troops are annihilated, I will quickly move eastward and defeat the main force of the 120th Division of the Eighth Route Army in one fell swoop. Kunomura Momoyo looked at the map and muttered to himself.

"Wing Commander, the First Reserve Regiment of the Eighth Route Army of China has sent personnel, and they have asked to send troops to each other after dawn tomorrow to transport back the bodies of both sides."

As soon as Kunomura Momoyo's words fell, a Japanese second lieutenant walked in from outside, first saluted Kunomura Momoyo, and then reported to the Japanese second lieutenant.

After hearing the news, Kunomura Momoyo couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and he looked at the Japanese second lieutenant with a contemplative expression on his face.

If it was an ordinary Japanese commander, he would never care about such a thing, but a commander like Kunomura Momoyo, any move by the opponent would be suspected by him, especially for Sun Weiguo, Kunomura Momoyo thought that Sun Weiguo did anything for a purpose.

After thinking about it carefully, Kunomura Momoyo thought that he still had to agree to Sun Weiguo's request, after all, there were also many abandoned corpses of Japanese soldiers in Baode County.

"Convey the order, the troops are on increased alert to prevent the Chinese troops from carrying out night attacks." Kunomura Momoyo immediately gave the order.

The Japanese lieutenant saluted Kunomura Momoyo, and then he walked outside, while Kunomura Momoyo continued to look at the map in thought.

The fact that Sun Weiguo was going to transport the body made Kunomura Momoyo have doubts in his heart, and he felt that Sun Weiguo must have made such an arrangement for a purpose.

Beiping, the headquarters of the Japanese North China Front, Terauchi Shouichi was checking the reports of various departments, and when he saw the report of the Mongolian Corps, Terauchi Shouichi showed a slightly stunned expression on his face, and then he looked at it carefully, and his old face actually showed a smile.

"What is the origin of this Kunomura Momoyo, it is not easy for such an officer to be able to eat more than 300 people of the Shina Sun Patriotic Army in the first battle."

Shouichi Terauchi looked at the chief of staff, Naosaburo Okabe, and he hurriedly asked.

The Japanese troops and the Chinese troops fought and ate more than 300 people on the other side, and this kind of record is not even a small victory in many Japanese troops, you must know that the Japanese troops all ate a regiment and a division of the Chinese troops in one bite, and even the Japanese army in North China created a combat example of a brigade chasing a division of the Chinese troops.

But here in Sun Weiguo, being able to eat more than 300 troops of Sun Weiguo as soon as the battle is something that no Japanese officer has done, after Terauchi Shouichi saw this telegram, he couldn't help but be surprised, Kunomura Momoyo, who achieved such a result, was also valued by Terauchi Shouichi.

"Your Excellency Commander, this is the resume of Momoyo Kunomura, this is a very commanding officer." Naosaburo Okabe said immediately.

Taking the document handed over by Naosaburo Okabe, Shouichi Terauchi looked at it, and he nodded with satisfaction.

"Send a telegram to the 26th Infantry Regiment to commend Kunomura Momoyo, and tell Kunomura Momoyo that I hope he can make persistent efforts and inflict heavy damage on Sun Weiguo's troops, and I will personally celebrate him after the war. At the same time, he sent a telegram to the commander of the 26th Division, Harem Jun, asking him to meet any request from Kunomura Momoyo, and be sure to assist Kunomura Momoyo in the battle. Shouichi Terauchi said immediately.

"Hi, Your Excellency, Commander." Naosaburo Okabe immediately nodded and agreed.

The telegram from the Japanese headquarters was quickly sent, and the 26th Division and the 26th Infantry Regiment both received the telegram from the headquarters, and Harem Jun was very happy, after all, Kunomura Momoyo was his favored officer, and now Kunomura Momoyo was rewarded by Terauchi Shouichi, and he was naturally very pleased.

But when the telegram from the North China Front Headquarters was sent to the headquarters of the Kuroda Shigetoku Infantry Regiment, Kuroda Shigetoku's face became iron-blue, his eyes widened, and his hands slapped the table fiercely, he was originally jealous of Kunomura Momoyo, and now the commander of the North China Front, General Terauchi Shouichi, personally sent a telegram to commend Kunomura Momoyo, how could this not make him angry.

Lenovo received a telegram from the head of the harem Jun Division before, and a large number of reinforcements were going to enter Baode County and hand over to Kunomura Momoyo to command the battle, Kuroda Shigetoku didn't feel good in his heart.

He knew very well that if Kunomura Momoyo really defeated or even completely annihilated Sun Weiguo's troops, then his position as the commander of the infantry regiment might not be able to be kept.

After thinking about these things, Kuroda Shigetoku began to make a bold move, and he began to send direct electricity to the reserve first brigade.

The night passed quickly, and when the sky was just dawning, the reconnaissance company and armored company of Baode County began to dispatch, they attacked the 21st Regiment of the Puppet Cavalry, where did the 21st Cavalry Regiment dare to engage the armored troops of the 1st Regiment of the Reserve, and soon after the attack of the armored company and the reconnaissance company, the 21st Regiment of the Puppet Cavalry immediately withdrew.

At the same time, the main force of the first reserve regiment began to be dispatched, and the troops quickly marched towards the Zhujiachuan River, and this information was naturally sent to Momoyo Kunomura.

When Kunomura Momoyo heard that Sun Weiguo's troops were dispatched, he quickly came to the front line to command, and he ordered the troops to be ready for battle.
