The telegram of just more than 100 words was quickly read by Iwakiri, who was extremely depressed, and was extremely angry, and roared angrily at the newspaper soldier who lowered his head on the side: "Baga! ”
Then came a loud slap in the face, and the operator could only lower his head and hurriedly say, "Hay! ”
"Boom" "Boom" "Boom"
There was a rapid explosion in front of him, and the entire command center shook for a while, and Iwakiri Hideosa, who was already angry, suddenly sat on the ground with an unstable center of gravity. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The wing next to him, Fu Watanabe Nakasa, hurriedly came over and helped Iwakiri Xiu Osa up, and asked, "Is Your Excellency Osa injured?" ”
"I'm fine, Watanabe-kun, can you quickly see what's going on on the front line?" Watanabe Daisa said loudly.
"Hay!"
"Bell bell bell"
"Moxi Moxi"
"Your Excellency, Wing Commander, it's Aso Shaosa's phone, he wants to talk to you directly!" The staff officer said respectfully.
"Moxi Moxi, I'm Iwakiri Xiu! What's happening at the front? What happened at the time of the explosion? Iwakiri asked aloud.
"Report to Dazuo, my forward position was attacked by the heavy artillery of the Chinese army, and the front-line ammunition depot was destroyed, please send reinforcements in time to Your Excellency Dazuo!" Forward commander Aso Shaosa said loudly.
"Baga, how do the people of China know the location of the forward ammunition depot, what are you eating?" Iwakiri Hideosa said angrily.
"Report to Dazuo, the people of China should know very well where our army's ammunition is stored, just now. The people of China bombarded the forward ammunition stockpile, and the ammunition depot exploded, and the surrounding small group of imperial troops collectively shattered. Dazuo, the people of China are going to attack again, please send reinforcements in time! Aso reported.
Iwakiri Xiu Osa heard the rapid gunfire and explosions from time to time at the front line from the phone, and knew that the front line had now reached the most critical time, so he said: "Yaga, you must defend your position, and reinforcements will arrive soon." ”
Throwing away the phone, Iwakiri Hideosa looked around at all the officers in the headquarters, and then ordered loudly: "Pass my order, Sasaki's brigade immediately reinforces the city gate pass, and cooperate with Aso's brigade to hold the forward position, and be sure to hold it until dark." ”
"Hay!"
Although the order was issued, Iwakiri Hideosa was still very uneasy in his heart, this was the last complete infantry brigade in his hands, and so far the three-day defense mission of Harahei Town had only been carried out on the first day.
On the 7th, the integrated 2nd Brigade outside Yuanping Town finally failed to take this strategic place, and after the night battle, the casualties were counted, and the 101st Regiment lost 778 people in the day's battle, accounting for 30 percent of the whole regiment, and this loss made Wang Guotao, the commander of the 101st Regiment, extremely angry.
It is common for people to die in battle, Wang Guotao knows this better than anyone else, but the problem is that the enemies they encounter today are different. The reconnaissance unit had figured out the situation of the defenders of Haradaira Town, and it was the 80th Wing of the 40th Brigade of the Japanese Army, and half of the soldiers of this 80th Wing were newly added Osaka soldiers.
After learning the news, Wang Guotao called a joy, grandma's, isn't this giving credit to their 101st regiment. All the troops who fought against the vegetable sellers in Osaka, Japan, were not very profitable. The emperor took turns, and when he came to my house this year, he finally let Wang Guotao encounter such a time.
But Wang Guotao, who was full of joy, didn't expect that the good grandson in the eyes of others would become a grandfather in front of him, isn't this a slap in the face. Could it be that your grandfather Wang is a soft persimmon, and even the Osaka soldiers can be bullied, Wang Guotao can't figure it out.
Just when Wang Guotao was scolding the officers of the 101st Regiment at the headquarters, the phone suddenly rang.
The guard picked it up and just said a few words, then put down the phone and reported loudly: "Tuanzao, it's the division commander's phone, he wants you to answer the phone!" ”
Wang Guotao hurriedly ran over and picked up the phone and said, "Report to the division commander, Wang Guotao of the 101st Regiment reports to you." ”
"Wang Da is stunned, are you fucking scolding your mother again?" Huang Sicheng's hearty laughter came from the phone.
"Nope. No, absolutely nothing! Which **** sued Lao Tzu in front of the division commander, the division commander, you told me, I went to find him to theorize! Wang Guotao said with righteous words.
"Okay, okay, no one sued you for your troubles, don't you know what kind of virtue you are ****, if the attack doesn't go well, you'll call your subordinates and scold them." Huang Sicheng said with a smile.
"No, the master ......"
"What isn't it, do you kid dare to say that your political commissar, regimental deputy, chief of staff, and three battalion commanders are not with you now?" Huang Sicheng said.
"This... Teachers... That's not today's battle is really a bit of a nest, I was stunned by the **** Osaka soldiers to repel 11 times, what a fucking nest, the face of the 101st regiment was lost by this group of rabbits. Wang Guotao said.
"Okay, when you get to Lao Tzu, don't fucking chirp. If you can't beat it, you can't beat it, you fucking think that Yuanping Town is that small cannon tower, so it's easy to be conquered by you. It's normal that you can't beat it in just one day, so don't scold your mother. Huang Sicheng said.
"Division commander. So what do we do next? Wang Guotao asked.
"Your regiment continues to attack Yuanping Town, and tomorrow I will reinforce you with a new regiment, and I will also send an artillery battalion to your side. Your battle tomorrow is not mainly to capture Yuanping Town, but to teach those recruits how to fight. Of course, if you can really take down Yuanping Town, I don't blame you. Huang Sicheng said loudly.
"Yes, swear to complete the mission!" Wang Guotao said.
"Get out, Lao Tzu doesn't need you to die, you have to give Lao Tzu a life, and accompany Lao Tzu to fight devils." Huang Sicheng said loudly.
"Yes, guaranteed to live!"
At the time when the reorganized 1st Division was fighting fiercely with the Japanese army in Yuanping Town, the main force of nearly 40,000 people of the 120th Division of the Eighth Route Army was marching from Lanxian to the Ningwu area controlled by the Japanese army under the command of Master He.
This Ningwu is an important passage connecting the north of Jin and the northwest of Jin, in addition, Ningwu Pass is also an important pass on the Great Wall, and Yanmen Pass, partial pass together are called "outer three passes", the terrain is very dangerous.
Since Aiko Sato's intelligence team had deciphered the telegrams from the Second War Zone, and was also clear about the deployment of troops and the detailed battle plan of the Second Theater and the Eighth Route Army, it was natural to know that it was the main force of the 120th Division of the Eighth Route Army that attacked Ningwu. Therefore, in order to block the 120th Division and buy time for the main force of the First Army to annihilate Sun Weiru's department, Umezu Mijiro specially sent the guard wing around him to Ningwu, and also sent the two most powerful infantry brigades of the Imperial Association Army under Cai Xiongfei to Ningwu, plus a defender brigade in Ningwu before, more than 14,000 people poured into the small Ningwu Pass at once, and the strength was extremely strong.
With these troops stationed at Ningwu Pass, General Umezu Mijiro was relieved. Although the number of the 120th Division was more than several times that of the Ningwu defenders, the terrain of Ningwu Pass was dangerous, and the places available for attack were very limited. The Eighth Route Army had tens of thousands of troops, but there were only two regiments that could really participate in the siege battle, so it was very reassuring to have 14,000 troops stationed in Ningwuguan and Umezu Mijiro.
As Umezu Mijiro expected, in the next battle, the 120th Division had a huge number of troops, but it was blocked by more than 10,000 Japanese troops in front of Ningwu Pass, and the defenders suffered only a few hundred casualties in a fierce battle all day, while the 120th Division had no less than 500 corpses in front of the pass alone, and at least more than 1,000 casualties were also wounded.
What made Umezu Mijiro even happier was that the troop mobilization in the second war zone was indeed as Sato Aiko said, all the way to Luliang, all the way to Fenyang, and all the way to Qixian, and it was Sun Weiru's division of the Fourth Army of China that was assembled in the area of Luliang.
According to the battle plan, Iida Shojiro's troops were to occupy the area of Xiaoloufeng and Yingpangou before Sun Weiru's troops arrived in Gujiao, and set up pocket formations there, waiting for the arrival of Sun Weiru's troops, of course, before that, the first army had to resist the attacks of several other Chinese people. As long as Sun Weiru's department is annihilated, then the offensive of the people of China will not be attacked, and then it will be time for the Imperial Japanese Army to expand its results, and General Umezu Mijiro is proud when he thinks of this.
