Sure enough, the 23rd Division of this reinforcement advanced with its head down, and did not expect that the [***] team would fall from the sky, because in the first two days, there was no [***] team here, but I didn't expect that in just two days, they forcibly marched so far away to set up an ambush, and they were suddenly caught off guard, and were attacked by the [***] team with tanks and infantry, and cut into three pieces fiercely, so that the head and tail of the army could not echo, and then the [***] team first concentrated its superior forces to eliminate the first part, and the remaining troops blocked the other two forces of the army to rescue it.

The 15,000 squadrons surrounded the two multi-wing squadrons, and under the cover of seven tanks, frantically penetrated into their positions, because this squadron was the weakest, it did not even have decent heavy weapons, and the positions themselves were very flat and had not been built, so they were almost completely exposed to the fire of the squadron.

In addition to fighting a tough battle at the Nenjiang Bridge, the Northeast Anti-Volunteer Army has mainly been guarding Qiqihar over the years, and the Anti-Japanese Army has not carried out a large-scale attack on Qiqihar, so this battle is a rare hard battle fought by the Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army after the Battle of Yanjiang Bridge.

When Komatsubara heard the news of the attack on the 23rd Division, his heart trembled, knowing that it was a method used by the Chinese to encircle and send reinforcements, and he could not get out of his body now, so while requesting air force support, he discussed with Sakamoto, and sent three wings on each side to rescue.

Soon after the dispatch of the army, the Qiqihar side immediately drew two divisions to intercept the two armies in two ways, which was difficult for Komatsubara, so he asked Sakamoto again to let him prevent the division of the Yanhuang Army on the Daqing side from speeding up and threatening Qiqihar to put pressure on him and let him come back for help.

Wei Chendong immediately sent the 38th Division of Tie Lihua, which was closer to Qiqihar, to threaten the rear of the army, Kawashima Yoshiko heard the news, his eyes lit up, and he immediately asked An Guoan's main force to march in the direction of Daqing to block the incoming 38th Division and ensure the stability of the strategic rear.

Now the situation is uncertain, has been greatly out of the expectation of the army, in their previous thoughts, to threaten Daqing with heavy troops, so that it can not divide the troops to rescue, and then with heavy troops to storm Qiqihar, after taking it, you can put Daqing in the arc encirclement, then the battle of Daqing will be much better, but now Nenjiang Bridge was at a loss, the army offensive route had to change, after Komatsubara sent a division, it also gave the Chinese [***] team an opportunity, I didn't expect them to come to a fence to help, a division of troops is a lot, In this way, the army was forced to divide its troops and divide its troops again, so that the attack force would be dispersed, and it would deviate from the original principle of concentrating one or two key attacks on the main force, which would definitely make the attack force disperse a lot, and I am afraid that it would be another chaotic war at that time, which is not what the army wanted.

After sorting through all kinds of information, the Kwantung Army Command agreed to Kawashima Yoshiko's request, and ordered him to take the main force of An [***] 30,000 people to Daqing, confront the 38th Division, and curb its momentum, but not to take the initiative to start a war, so as not to cause a change in the entire situation.

The reason why the Kwantung Army Command agreed to Yoshiko Kawashima's request was because in their minds, even if the time came to fight, she would be strict and tidy, even if she couldn't win, 30,000 people wouldn't lose.

After getting the approval of the Kwantung Army Headquarters, Kawashima Yoshiko was very excited, and the opportunity to make contributions had finally arrived, and she immediately led 30,000 soldiers of the Eight Banners with great interest to rush to Pingyang Town, set up camp in Linjiang, and confronted the 38th Division of Tie Lihua in Jiangwan Township opposite.

Yoshiko Kawashima's heart is extremely hot, and she really wants to lead her troops to fight over, because it used to be this place in Jiangwan Township, so that the current Lieutenant General Sakamoto Masaemon could not take a step beyond the Thunder Pond, which led to the irreversible fiasco of the Battle of Nenjiang Bridge.

may have guessed that Yoshiko Kawashima, a woman who is a little anxious for quick success, will not be able to resist the great temptation to attack Jiangwan Township, the Kwantung Army Command gave her a preventive shot in advance, and strictly ordered her not to act rashly, just stick to the Linjiang area, and all military operations must be reported to the headquarters first, which makes Kawashima Yoshiko stupid.

Judging from the current form, the Yue army attacking Qiqihar plus Kawashima Yoshiko's An [***] has been divided into four parts, and it is either pinned down by the central [***] team, or it is contained, or even surrounded, and the combat forces are extremely scattered, and it cannot form an effective strike.

Therefore, after thinking about it for a while, the Kwantung Army Headquarters ordered Komatsubara to abandon the Longjiang position and march towards the encircled division, one for rescue, the other for the sake of combining troops in one place, so as to strengthen the attack force, and also to shorten the distance with Sakamoto to achieve the effect of echoing each other.

Knowing that Xiaosongyuan was going south, the 50,000 Yan and Huang troops immediately followed, not letting them relax, Guanghou Township, which had been besieging the Yue Army for four days in the northeast, continued to increase the offensive, and after defeating the two multi-wing troops that had been besieged before, they immediately rushed towards another weaker Yue army, forced their way through from the middle, cut a part of it out again, and continued to bully the small with the strength of five regiments to surround and beat the two wings of the Yue army, and the middle [***] team was like eating cake, Cut it off piece by piece and eat it, which made the army very angry.

Xiao Matsubara was ruthless, and immediately ordered the remaining troops to concentrate a little attack and then break through, not caring about the encircled part of the troops, which would only be consumed by the [***] team, Xiao Matsubara also accelerated the pace of rushing to Guanghou Township, and the 50,000 Yan and Huang troops also shifted the direction slightly, and approached the distance from the Northeast Anti-Japanese Army, in order to echo each other and put pressure on the Yue Army.

After Komatsubara's arrangement, the 23rd Division successfully broke through to Guanghou Township, but the losses were also heavy and abnormal, with more than half of the casualties, and only then did it join Komatsuhou in the Beishan area, so that the Komatsubara's division reached more than 50,000 people, and compared with the first three divisions, there were many casualties.

The three wings sent by Sakamoto to support also returned home, reunited with Sakamoto, and launched a fierce attack on Yao Hong's army headquarters in Daxing Town, Tailai County.

The 50,000 Yan and Huang troops did not return to Qiqihar, but were stationed in Huamin Township, Longjiang County, to monitor the more than 50,000 people in Xiaosongyuan, and as for the Northeast Volunteer Army that attacked the 23rd Division, it continued to stay in Guanghou Township and fought with the Yan and Huang Army.

After Sakamoto Masaemon concentrated the troops, the attack force increased a lot, and the heavy firepower was much stronger than the defenders, after the army paid a lot of price, Daxing Town finally fell into the hands of the army in early August, Yao Hongbing reorganized the troops, fortified in Tangchi Town, and continued to block the army.

Sakamoto has an abnormal headache, the advance speed of the troops is too slow, like this city by wall, the consumption is too great, this is no longer like a storm, but a war of attrition, which is different from the idea of the base camp, fighting with the Chinese, that is looking for death.

Sakamoto discussed with Komatsubara, and jointly sent a report to the Kwantung Army Headquarters, requesting reinforcements to take Qiqihar in one fell swoop with absolutely superior forces and firepower, although this investment would be more, but from a long-term perspective, it was worth it.
