Yamashita Fengwen couldn't speak clearly in a hurry, and his voice was hoarse when he got on fire, and the staff officers next to him didn't dare to speak at all, and now they can only do their own thing.

"Continue to contact the 18th Division and our armored brigade, we must contact them, and we will speed up the march, hurry up and get over there, damn it!" Yamashita Bongfumi stabilized his emotions and then said to the chief of staff.

"Hey!" The chief of staff nodded, and went back to his business.

And on the Yangon side, Okamura Ninji didn't sleep either, now he was waiting for news from the front, the 18th Division was now uncontactable, and he didn't know where the troops of the armored brigade were now and how they were fighting.

"Commander. You should rest early, it is not early, if there is news, I will let you know! The chief of staff of the headquarters spoke.

Now the people in the entire headquarters know that Okamura Ningji's judgment is right, Hu Bin's troops really can't be underestimated, as soon as it passes, the troops of a division may have been scrapped, and they don't know how the armored brigade behind them is fighting, so they can only wait for news.

Those staff officers all thought that Okamura Ning was right to withdraw the troops from Yamashita Fengfumi, but Yamashita Fumimi did not listen.

"Wait, I want to know what Hu Bin's troops will do next, whether they will continue to hold on to Xibu or retreat!" Okamura Ninji spoke.

"They're going to keep it, right? If they don't defend it, what's the use of them fighting Xibu, just to kill one of our divisions? Help Wei Lihuang's troops break the siege? The chief of staff heard it, looked at Okamura Ninji and said.

"No, not necessarily, I want to know what Hu Bin means now? Because we are negotiating with China, we don't know exactly what the talks will be. I hope that we can negotiate well, but this matter is not something we can control, if we don't negotiate, what should we do, and whether India will fight or not?

We're going to hit India. Be sure to know Hu Bin's movements. I hope that Hu Bin's troops will retreat, if he retreats, we still have a chance to fight India, if he does not retreat, we can only gather heavy troops, first defeat Hu Bin's troops, but the Indian side of the fighter will be delayed, so our losses will be greater. Okamura Ninji said.

And the chief of staff heard it and didn't know what Okamura Ninji's words meant. How to retreat There is still a chance, retreat, isn't it even more difficult to fight!

"If he's stuck to Cyb this time. So it shows that Hu Bin still wants to fight with us, but he didn't find a chance, if he found an opportunity, next time he will attack Mandalay, I don't want Hu Bin to attack Mandalay. Before Hu Bin attacks Mandalay, we must kill him.

But if Hu Bin retreats. That's not what it means, it means that Hu Bin doesn't want to fight us, and at this time, we can secretly send a delegation to Hu Bin's side and pay a certain price. If he wants to give us a guarantee that we will not fight Mandalay for a long time, so that we can free up enough troops to attack India, now I wonder what Hu Bin means. Okamura Ninji said as he sat there.

"What?" The Chief of Staff looked at Okamura Ninji in great surprise.

He expressed considerable doubts about what Okamura Ninji had just said. It's not that I doubt whether I can negotiate, but I doubt that Okamura Ninji can know what Hu Bin thinks through this matter? Okamura Ninji heard what he said in a lost voice, so he glanced at him.

"Commander, I want to know, how did you judge that if we can't reach a negotiation agreement with China, if Hu Bin retreats, how do you know that Hu Bin will talk to us?" The chief of staff immediately explained.

"Hah, how do I know? Hu Bin, who can't afford to be early, now we are in Southeast Asia, not in China, and our next action is not to fight China, for other Chinese generals, I dare not say this, but for Hu Bin, I dare to say, unless we infringe on his interests, otherwise, Hu Bin will not do anything to us abroad, he is for China, not for Britain. Okamura Ninji said as he looked at the map in front of him.

"This? This one? Are you sure? The chief of staff looked at him in disbelief and asked.

"Let's see if his troops will retreat, I hope I am not mistaken, if he does not retreat, then the next battle will be really difficult to fight! I don't want to fight hard here with Hu Bin now, it's not worth it for our country, and it's not worth it for Hu Bin!

But I'm worried that Hu Bin thinks that after we defeat India, we will wave troops into China again, so he wants to solve us in advance and add trouble to us, which is really trouble. Okamura continued.

"Then, we will know tonight, if Hu Bin withdraws his troops and the Chinese side does not negotiate, we will send a delegation over?" The chief of staff asked.

"I'm going to go after the talk, Hu Bin won't listen to Chongqing, he will still be beaten, this person is such an evil family! So you must stabilize Hu Bin, I will send a telegram to the base camp to see if I can use 20 million US dollars to buy Hu Bin for half a year to not do anything to us in Mandalay, in fact, as long as half a year is enough! Okamura Ninji said.

"Are you going to talk about it?" The chief of staff then asked.

"Yes! For Hu Bin, we have a bottom line, don't let Hu Bin be dissatisfied, if he is dissatisfied, we will not be able to fight, the negotiations in Chongqing, Hu Bin is satisfied or not, I don't know, but we need to make him satisfied, and if he is satisfied, we dare to let go!

Just like doing business, obviously 10,000 yuan can satisfy important people, and 5,000 yuan is actually okay, but. You can only give 10,000, you can't give 5,000, if you give 5,000, you will pay more in the future, and give 10,000 or more than 10,000, many things that you haven't considered before, he may help you solve.

For Hu Bin, that's it, it's okay if he is satisfied, if he is not satisfied, it will be a big deal, we must make sure that Hu Bin does not interfere in our attack on India, we must be sure. Okamura Ninji said.

"Hey!" The chief of staff heard it and nodded.

He now also understands what Okamura Ningji meant, Hu Bin will not listen to Chongqing's command, he is not satisfied with what you want to get, no matter what contract you negotiate, he will still fight, in order to ensure that there will be no problems with the attack, you must go to talk to Hu Bin and make him satisfied.

However, on the side of Xib, there are now loud explosions everywhere, and there is firelight.

"It's a pity, so much food, give us two divisions, and we can last a month!" Xu Zhuo looked at the burning warehouses and said very regretfully.

"There's no pity, we can't get it back at all, now we have got some medicine, as well as grenades, bullets are useless, and when the time comes, we will all pour gasoline on him, and burn what can be burned!" Wang Changhe said.

The bullets in Japan are different from those used by the 99th Army, except for the bullets of the heavy machine guns, but the soldiers can't all take those bullets, after all, there are so many horses, and there are not many at all.

"It's already past 2 o'clock, and we will retreat at 3 o'clock, we can't stay here, the devil troops will come over soon!" Wang Changhe looked at his watch and said.

Now there are troops in retreat, the logistics units loaded with supplies are the first to retreat, and the wounded of the infantry units are also the first to retreat, and the large troops will not begin to retreat until this side is almost burned.

"Yes. My 2 regiments have entered the trail and are beginning to retreat! Xu Zhuo nodded and said.

"Let's go, we're going to get out of here too!" Wang Changhe opened his mouth and said, now they have to go to the back to arrange for the troops to retreat.

And in a ravine more than ten miles to the south, there were more than 500 devils, lying on the ground, and some devil officers, climbing to the top of the mountain, looking at Xibu in the distance.

"Xibu is burning, the Chinese troops are burning the materials we have stored in Xib, and it is estimated that those wounded are also more than lucky." The chief of staff of the 18th Division went to Hyakutake Haruyoshi's side and said.

Because of the cover of the breakthrough troops to the west, under the escort of his guards, he successfully withdrew from the pathway, and walked for more than three hours before reaching this side.

The current Hyakutake Haruyoshi is not in the mood to speak, because his entire 18th Division may run out with such a few people, and it can be announced that the whole army is annihilated, and in the face of such a big defeat, no commander can calm down, it is him, at this time, he wants to cut himself, but several of his guards follow him and don't give him this opportunity at all.

"The Chinese troops will not stay in Xibu anymore, they will retreat, is our telegraph turned on?" Hyakutake Haruyoshi spoke.

"It may be open now, you go down and ask!" The chief of staff heard it and immediately said to one of the staff officers next to him.

"Wait a minute, whether you turn on the telegraph or not, now you have to turn it on and send a telegram to the commander and the commander-in-chief, Hu Bin's troops occupy Xibu, but they are burning those supplies.

I speculate that they may not occupy Xib, since they will not occupy Xib, the rest of our 25th Army, don't be in such a hurry to hurry, otherwise once they are ambushed by Hu Bin's troops, they will suffer a big loss, Hu Bin's troops have strong firepower and strong combat effectiveness, and all the troops who come to support must pay attention and don't be ambushed! Hyakutake Haruyoshi said to the staff officer.

"Hey!" The staff officer heard this, nodded, and began to run down the hill.

"Your Excellency Division Commander, what should we do next?" The chief of staff looked at Hyakutake Haruyoshi and asked. (To be continued.) )
