Sun Weiguo's orders began to be issued, and the various departments immediately began to mobilize, and a large number of troops began to assemble according to the predetermined location.

At 5 p.m. on 25 August, all units completed their assembly, and Sun Weiguo gave the New 2nd Brigade an order to rest for an hour, and Fu Tao of the New 2nd Brigade commanded the troops directly under the brigade headquarters and the troops of the 1st Pre-Regiment, which were to launch an attack on Shimenkou Town at 6 o'clock.

Sun Weiguo's order was not only to give the officers and soldiers a chance to take a breath, but also to give Kunomura Momoyo a difficult problem.

Now Sun Weiguo is clearly going to encircle and annihilate the Japanese troops in Shimen Town, and Kunomura Momoyo can also learn the news, Sun Weiguo wants to see how Kunomura Momoyo will deploy.

You must know that Sun Weiguo has deployed mobile troops in Shimen Town and Xiaokou Village in the center of Dongjiao Village, as long as the Japanese troops in Dongjiao Village dare to reinforce Shimen Town, Yin Jinshan Cavalry Sixth Regiment, Ge Haifeng Cavalry Regiment will quickly attack it, and the tanks of the Sixth Cavalry Regiment and the cavalry of the cavalry battalion will not let the little devil infantry cross Xiaokou Village to reinforce Shimenkou Town.

This is the problem that Sun Weiguo gave to Kunomura Momoyo, Sun Weiguo wants to see if this little devil dares to use infantry to compete with his most elite cavalry regiment and cavalry battalion!

Kunomura Momoyo was a very sensible commander, and even though he knew that the Japanese army in Shimenkou Town was under the attack of Chinese troops, he did not react.

He knew very well that if he sent infantry reinforcements to the past, he would definitely encounter cavalry and armored attacks, and the infantry would not be an opponent of tanks and cavalry at all.

He still planned to stick to the eastern suburbs, and at the same time he began to send a telegram to the headquarters of the First Army to ask Umezu Mijiro about his next battle plan.

Shijiazhuang, the headquarters of the First Army of the Japanese Army.

Sun Weiguo gave Kunomura Momoyo a problem, and Kunomura Momoyo apparently directly pushed this problem to Umezu Mijiro, the commander of the First Army.

Now Umezu Mijiro is not in a very good mood, he was transferred to the commander of the First Army in the Japanese base camp as a vice minister of the army, in the Japanese base camp Umezu Mijiro has many connections, he has received information from the inside, the base camp is very dissatisfied with Umezu Mijiro's performance after he arrived in the First Army.

Umezu Mijiro's predecessor, Kiyoshi Kazuki, was defeated by Sun Weiguo several times, but Kiyoji Kazuki did not cause the Japanese general rank to be killed by Sun Weiguo, and after Umezu Mijiro served as the commander of the First Army, Qin Yashang, the commander of the Lieutenant General Brigade of the Fifth Independent Mixed Brigade, was killed, and all a mixed brigade was annihilated.

Such casualties cost Japan a lot of face in the international community, and the base camp was even more dissatisfied with Umezu Mijiro, and they had already begun to discuss the removal of Umezu Mijiro.

Although some of Umezu Mijiro's old commanders and colleagues are actively trying to save the situation, Umezu Mijiro's transfer from the First Army is basically a foregone conclusion.

Umezu Mijiro, who got the news, was full of confusion about his future, and he didn't know what kind of position awaited him.

When Shojiro Iida, the chief of staff of the First Army's Major General, came to Umezu Mijiro with a telegram from Kunomura Momoyo, Umezu Mijiro had already begun to drink sake.

After seeing Shojiro Iida arrive, a bitter smile appeared on his face.

"Your Excellency Commander, the 1st Brigade of the Mixed Combat has completed its mission, and now all the main forces of Sun Weiguo have returned to Pingding County. However, when Sun Weiguo returned to Pingding County, they quickly took action against the First Brigade of the melee, and the current situation in Pingding County is not very optimistic. In addition, the intelligence agency sent a telegram that, according to our internal personnel report, it seems that the top level of China intends to expand Sun Weiguo's unit into a division-level unit, and according to the intelligence agency's understanding, Sun Weiguo's unit will become the second large-scale division-level unit. ”

Shojiro Iida came to Umezu Mijiro, he looked at Umezu Mijiro with a solemn expression on his face and said.

Umezu Mijiro hurriedly took the message and looked at it, and when he saw the content of the message, his face was even more speechless.

Sun Weiguo's troops were attracted back to Pingding County, but after returning to Pingding County, Sun Weiguo did not settle down, but began to attack the 1st Brigade of the Melee.

Seeing the telegram reporting in detail on the battle situation in Pingding County, Umezu Mijiro's brows furrowed tightly, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

Now he has no troops to mobilize, except for the troops who participated in the Battle of Wuhan, the rest of the troops are left in the garrison area, and he cannot reinforce Pingding County to fight.

Umezu Mijiro looked at the chief of staff, Shojiro Iida, he had a most helpless plan in his heart, but he couldn't say it.

"Commander, Sun Weiguo's troops are now strong and strong, although there are still thousands of troops in the first brigade of the melee, but their tank wing has suffered a devastating blow, judging from the current strength of the first brigade and the independent mixed third brigade, I am afraid that they will be difficult to be the opponent of Sun Weiguo's troops, I suggest that they immediately evacuate Pingding County."

When Shojiro Iida saw Mijiro Umezu's gaze, he hesitated slightly, and then he said his suggestion.

"I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to explain to Commander Terauchi Shouichi, not to mention that if we give up Pingding County, I'm afraid it will give a great encouragement to the Zhina troops, and we can't bear this responsibility." Umezu Mijiro also had this plan in his heart, but he couldn't say it, and after Iida Shojiro said it, he still had to talk about his difficulties.

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency Terauchi will understand our intentions when he sees our message. Now that the elite of the First Brigade and the Third Brigade of the Independent Mixed Brigade still exist, they still have the capital to break through, but once they are slowly eaten away by Sun Weiguo's troops, even if they want to break through, it will be impossible, and at that time, I am afraid the consequences will be even more serious. ”

Iida Shojiro continued to persuade that it was obviously the best option for the Japanese troops to abandon Binh Dinh County.

It's just that in order to gain control of the county seat of Pingding County, the Japanese army has lost a lot of troops, and now they are going to give up again, and they can't explain it.

Umezu Mijiro frowned, he had a lot of concerns, but in the end he nodded and agreed.

Although he was about to be transferred, he still didn't want to see any accidents happen to the 1st Brigade and the 3rd Independent Mixed Brigade, and if these two brigades suffered heavy losses again, I was afraid that Umezu Mijiro would be sent to a military court.

After seeing Umezu Mijiro nodding, Iida Shojiro immediately began to send electricity to Kunomura Momoshiro, and at the same time, Iida Shojiro also began to send a telegram to report to the North China Front.

At 9 o'clock in the evening of 25 August, the troops of the 1st Brigade and the 3rd Independent Mixed Brigade began to prepare for a breakthrough, while the 7th Independent Infantry Brigade and the 1st Tank Squadron of the Japanese Army in Shimenkou Town received an order to break through the 3rd Independent Mixed Brigade.
