Chapter 330: Battle in the Northwest of Jin 30
The atmosphere at the Japanese wing headquarters was not very good, and the deputy wing commander of Nakasa had already stood up from his chair, he stared at the map and fell into hesitation.
The three Japanese officers wanted to immediately launch a counterattack on Loufan County in order to rescue Ishida Kanazo and find the Wing Flag.
This idea is also available to the officer of Nakasa, but the officer of Nakasa knows the situation of the 119th Wing very well.
After the battle with the first regiment in reserve, the losses of the 119th Wing were also very large, especially the fact that the current wing commander Ishida Jinzo was captured alive and the wing flag was captured, which brought a great impact on the morale of the ghost soldiers of the 119th Wing.
Considering the current situation of the 119th Wing, Officer Nakasa knew that the troops would fight again, and I am afraid that they would not achieve any advantage.
"Send a telegram directly to His Excellency the division commander, report on our situation here, and ask for tactical guidance."
After being silent for a while, Officer Nakasa gritted his teeth, he gave the order directly, he felt that he still had to tell the division commander Shigehou Yamaoka the news, after all, he had no way to solve the confusion of the 119th Wing at present.
"Hi, Vice Captain." The signal corps immediately agreed, and the signal corps immediately began to send telegrams to the division headquarters via the radio.
Taiyuan City, the headquarters of the 109th Division of the Japanese Army, at this time the commander of the 109th Division of the Japanese Army, Yamaoka Shigehou, was inspecting Taiyuan City.
As the supreme commander of the Japanese army in Taiyuan City, Yamaoka Chonghou inspected the huge Taiyuan City, and naturally there was an indescribable joy in his heart.
It's just that he hasn't completely inspected the entire Taiyuan City, so he was invited back to the division headquarters by the chief of staff, Ochiai Shizaburo.
"The 119th Wing sent a telegram, did they break through Loufu County, although Sun Weiguo's reputation is indeed very loud, and his command ability is also very good, but in the battle with our reinforced infantry wing, they will definitely not occupy any advantage, if Ishida Jinzang can completely annihilate the first reserve regiment and capture Sun Weiguo alive, then our 108th Wing will be rewarded by His Excellency the Commander."
Yamaoka Shigehou came to his division headquarters, and he looked at Shizaburo Ochiai, with a faint smile on his face.
He was in a very good mood, and when he inspected Taiyuan City, Yamaoka Shigehou had a great sense of accomplishment, knowing that Japan is just an island country, where can they enjoy such a huge city.
The expression on Shizaburo Ochiai's face was very embarrassed by the joy shown by Yamaoka Shigehou, and he didn't know how to report the matter of the 119th Wing for a while, he looked at Yamaoka Shigehou with a solemn gaze.
Shizaburo Ochiai had been Shizaburo Yamaoka's chief of staff for some time, and Shizaburo Yamaoka knew Shizaburo Ochiai.
Seeing that the expression on Shizaburo Ochiai's face was not very good, the smile on Shigeki Yamaoka's face began to disappear.
"Is there something wrong with the 119th Wing? They haven't captured Lou Fu County yet? Yamaoka Shigehou had a displeased expression on his face.
In his opinion, the 119th Wing has a reinforced infantry wing, and it is impossible for them to have anything big, all he can think of is that the 119th Wing did not conquer Loufu County, and as for other things, he didn't think much about it at all.
"Your Excellency the Division Commander, the 119th Wing suffered a heavy blow to the First Regiment of the Reserve of China in Loufan County, and the captain of the Dazuo Wing, Ishida Jinzo, was captured alive, and the other ......"
Shizaburo Ochiai said in a solemn tone, and in the end, he didn't dare to continue.
Yamaoka's face turned pale, his right hand gripped the handle of the saber at his waist, and his eyes looked coldly at the map.
"What else is there, what else can happen to them." Yamaoka said almost through gritted teeth.
"The headquarters of the 119th Wing was attacked by the Shina troops, so the captain of the Ishida Jinzo Wing was captured alive, and according to the report of the 119th Wing, their wing flag was also captured by the Shina troops." Shizaburo Ochiai lowered his head and continued to report.
"Eight Ga Ya Road." Yamaoka drew his saber and slashed at the table in front of him.
The wooden table was split in half, and the atmosphere inside the division headquarters became extremely tense, and the staff officers stood up one after another, they didn't even dare to come out, and when they heard Ochiai Shizaburo's report, their eyes widened.
The report of the 119th Wing was known only to Shizaburo Ochiai and the communications soldiers, and these staff officers still did not know.
They could also sense through Shizaburo Ochiai's expression that something must have happened to the 119th Wing, but they didn't expect it to be so serious.
"What is the current situation of the 119 United, and will they still be able to fight?"
After a brief moment of anger, Yamaoka Shigehou immediately came to the map, he looked at the map, and asked in an indifferent tone.
"The three infantry brigades of the 119th Wing have paid varying degrees of casualties, the tank squadron still has seven tanks that can continue to fight, and two squadrons of armored vehicles or fifteen armored vehicles that can fight. However, the 119th Wing was injured in Loufan County, which is likely to be a conspiracy of the Chinese troops. ”
Shizaburo Ochiai immediately came to Yamaoka Shigehou, and he reported softly.
"The will to fight is not firm, and they will withdraw immediately when they encounter the imperial army, and the Jin Sui army troops are not worried. The main force of the 120th Division of the Eighth Route Army is in the northwest of Shanxi, and the rest of the Eighth Route Army troops cannot come here for the time being, which is not a conspiracy of the Chinese army.
I admit that I underestimated Sun Weiguo, and this Sun Weiguo does have a strong command ability. It was not easy for him to command a reserve infantry regiment and achieve such a feat. ”
Yamaoka said with a cold expression, his eyes were on the map, his brain was running rapidly, and he was thinking about how to solve this crisis.
Each infantry wing and cavalry wing of the Japanese army has a military flag awarded by the Japanese emperor, and this military flag is the Japanese army's wing flag.
Since the establishment of the Japanese Army, there has been a precedent for the flag to be destroyed by the enemy, but there is no precedent for it to be captured.
This responsibility is beyond the reach of Shigehou Yamaoka, and he must find a way to recapture the flag of the 119th Wing.
"Dispatch a cavalry battalion, a mountain artillery brigade, an engineer brigade, and an infantry brigade, immediately go to Loufan County, and after meeting with the 119th Wing, launch an attack on Loufan County, and find the wing flag no matter what. At the same time, they contacted the Aviation Corps and asked the Aviation Corps to carry out carpet bombing of Loufan County, and under no circumstances could the flag of the 119th Wing be allowed to leave Loufan County. ”
After pondering for a while, Shigehou Yamaoka immediately gave the order, and the expression on his face became serious.
"In addition, send a telegram to the 69th Wing of Fugu County, so that they can transfer at least one brigade of troops to Loufan County, no matter what the price is, they must intercept the wing flag of the 119th Wing for me in Loufan County, even if the wing flag is destroyed, it cannot fall into the hands of the Zhina troops."
Yamaoka continued as he spoke, anger welling up in his eyes.
