Chapter Fifty-Six: Encirclement and Annihilation
The news is definitely true, and no one dares to publish such fake news. Ito Osa was naturally comforted, and at the same time reminded the deputy wing captain who received the call that the top priority now is that the troops should remain on alert and slowly retreat to Liulin Town, and must not attack the squadron and try to take revenge. In its heyday, his eighteenth wing had never been able to defeat five hundred divisions, let alone the thirty-fourth wing, which had lost its wing leader. Now they are attacking the 500th Division, and they are definitely killing themselves!
It wasn't until the other party promised him that he would do it according to Ito Daisa's orders, that Osa ended the front-line call.
The next step is definitely to report to General Yekan. Ito was thinking about how to phrase it when the phone rang. When I picked it up, it turned out that General Nokan had called him first!
In the end, Nokanichiro is the brigade commander and a general, and his vision of the problem is not a little higher than that of the captain of the Osa. The excuse that Ito Daisa was thinking of, he was not needed at all, and he was directly appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Japanese army in the Yanagilin area.
The 34th Wing, the 18th Wing, and the Japanese squadron in Yangrove Castle were all under the command of Ito Nobuyoshi Osa. General Nokan ordered that Ito Osa led his troops to defend Liulin Town, and he must attract the 500 divisions of the squadron to the outskirts of Liulin Town, and he is mobilizing his army to prepare to encircle and annihilate this Chinese division in Liulin, and repeatedly make trouble for his 29th Brigade!
After seeing the draft of this telegram sent by Captain Oshima, Ito Osa had a plan in his heart. His 18th Wing has been wiped out by 500 divisions, and even if it is filled with new recruits after returning, the combat effectiveness cannot be restored in a short period of time. With an ownerless Thirty-Fourth Wing right under his nose, who could be more suitable to be the new commander of this Wing? As the captain of the 34th Wing, he can get back the shame of his defeat. After all, being able to keep the 34th Wing is also a credit, isn't it?
Most of the soldiers in the 34th Wing were from Shizuoka Prefecture, and General Nokan was also from Shizuoka Prefecture, and the 29th Brigade was known as the Shizuoka Brigade to the outside world. The Eighteenth Wing, on the contrary, was foreign. The 34th Wing is the son of General Yekan, and if he wants to be the commander of General Yekan's lineage, I don't know if the commander of the Yekan Brigade will agree.
Although there is indeed such a view of the region and gateway in the Japanese army, Kanichiro No, as the commander of the Major General's Brigade, has long seen through this artificially created obstacle. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the 18th Wing to surpass the 34th Wing in combat strength. Without the support of the commanders, it is simply impossible for an army to grow. Although Ito Nobuyoshi is the captain of the Great Zuo Wing, he can't even understand such a simple truth, maybe it's because he is in the game, right?
In short, a phone call from General Nokan completely solved Ito Daisa's concerns, and all that remained was endless admiration for the personality and charm of the commander of the Nokan Brigade. A phone call from General Ye Kan not only saved his descendants, but also received the diehard loyalty of a general, which can really be described as killing two birds with one stone.
After receiving the appointment, Ito Daisa did not stop for a moment, stood up and walked out of the door, he was going to go outside the city to command his wing, and lead them to safely withdraw to Liulin Town! When Osa's eyes suddenly saw the blue nose and swollen face of Taro Oshima, he suddenly had an idea in his heart: Isn't it rare for such an obedient subordinate to be a punching bag?
"Oshima-kun, you immediately follow me out of the city, and we will go to the thirty-fourth wing. General Ye Kan appointed me as the commander-in-chief of the Liulin area, and the 34th Wing was also under my command. You have made great progress in the past two days, and I am ready to appoint you as the deputy captain. Prepare yourself. After saying this, Ito Dasa strode out the door, and the back of the light appeared long and large.
"Hey!" Taro Oshima agreed loudly and hurriedly followed. This promise was full of excitement and surprise. Daisa Ito is so interesting! These beatings were not in vain!
sniped a Japanese soldier, and before Gao Quan could rejoice, a news came from the special service battalion: Nokanichiro of Xinyang was mobilizing a large army and preparing to encircle and annihilate his 500 divisions!
A mixed brigade in Kaifeng can be grouped in a few days, and once you get on the train, you can reach the outside of Xinyang City within a day! In addition, the devils in the counties and towns in Xinyang have begun to concentrate in the direction of Xinyang, and if all these devils return to Xinyang, it is estimated that it will be almost the same as reuniting into a wing! The devil really used his 500 divisions as a dish this time!
The 500 Divisions were so valued by the devils that Gao Quan suddenly felt the seriousness of the situation! Now the 500 divisions have a large population and a big business, but it is not the original few thousand people who say that they can hide it. Now these 20,000 horses want to hide quietly, which is really a bit troublesome. Even if Dabie Mountain is quite big, it is not so easy to hide.
Gao Quan pondered for a while, and suddenly sounded, he was also organized! The full name of the 500th Division is the 500th Division of the National Revolutionary Army, and the units of the National Revolutionary Army are, of course, under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Military Affairs and the Commissioner. At the same time, he also belongs to the Fifth War Zone, which is directly under the jurisdiction of Chief Li Zongren! If you have difficulties, you don't go to the chief to report it, stupid, right?
The telegrams to the Ministry of Military Affairs and to the war zone were sent before and after, and Gao Quan's eyes were waiting for the commander's reply.
The Chief's Department must have replied to the telegram first. Commander Li's telegram was to ask Gao Quan to lead 500 divisions back to his Dabie Mountain and fight guerrilla attacks against devils in the mountains. In short, Chief Li doesn't want to give up Xinyang and Dabie Mountain.
Chairman Chongqing inquired about the affairs of the 500 Divisions and personally replied with a telegram: If it is impossible to do anything, it will seek an opportunity to move in. The one signed at the back has the name of the commissioner. There are no reinforcements, nor does it explain where to transfer, probably that means that he wants to go to Xi'an and vote for Chief Hu, right?
Xi'an is too far away! When Chief Hu got there, he had no idea of fighting with the devils. Gao Quan is ready to continue working with the devil, once he goes to Xi'an, it will be difficult to come up again! These big people are all calculating, and they don't have a real word when they are full of mouths! The more Gao Quan thought about it, the more angry he became, he had to make his own decisions about his own affairs, more than 10,000 brothers in the 500 divisions, relying on others, it was still no fun after all!
Military meetings have also been held several times, whether it is Wang Dazhu or Zhang Erxiao, including Qian Sixi, who is a well-known envoy with a good brain, he has never had an idea in major matters, and every time Gao Quan says what is what, they are only responsible for implementation, not for advice! Gradually, Gao Quan also broke off the idea of brainstorming.
However, today's meeting must be held, not only to ask questions, but also to unify everyone's thinking, and even to mobilize before the battle!
The meeting place was in a military tent where the headquarters of the 500th Division was located, ten miles outside Liulin City. If the devil's cannon hits accurately, as soon as a shell falls, all the senior generals of the 500 division will be martyred collectively.
When Gao Quan entered the tent, it was already full of people. With a cry of "The master is seated, stand up!" "Everyone" whoop! He stood up straight.
