When he heard the news that His Excellency the Commander of Lieutenant General Hatohiko of Asaka Palace might be lost in the castle, Nakajima felt that his scalp was numb.

Either being killed or captured is a pretty bad thing.

If he is killed, he will have to deal with it, find a chance to retrieve the body, or spend a little price to get the body back and return to China for burial, this is not a big deal, as for the face of the royal family and the empire, he doesn't have to think about it, anyway, he is already self-conscious.

If they are captured, it will be a big trouble, and if they can't do it, they will all be held accountable, and if they lose their official positions, they will be dismissed, and if they don't get it right, they will have to go to a military court.

What to do?

To recapture the city of Nanjing, with the current strength of the 16th Division, it is simply not enough, not to mention that they have lost most of their heavy weapons in the city of Nanjing.

The Chinese army, which has obtained these heavy weapons and equipment, is it not like a tiger with wings?

This is not an ordinary army, it is a 'Yaksha' who has been fighting with them in Nanjing City for more than a month, but has never caught anyone, and he has repeatedly suffered losses.

This is an unpredictable army, and when I think about it, Nakajima can't help but feel a chill in my heart.

The reinforcements have arrived in Jurong, they are close at hand, and they will arrive early tomorrow morning at the earliest, what does the third division want to do, why not rush to Tangshan directly?

The telegram explained that there was only one brigade of forwards, and they set off after receiving the order, and when they arrived in Jurong, they were already sleepy and tired, and they really couldn't walk, and they needed to rest.

There is no way but to wait.

There were also many high-ranking Japanese officers and diplomats who fell into Nanjing, and the timing chosen by the 'Yaksha' was too good for the Japanese army to be unprepared. I was hit all at once.

Including Uchida, Consul of the Consulate of Japan in Nanjing. Major General Harada, Senior Adviser to the New Government. As well as the head of the Sagata Agency, Shigemoto Sagata and other important members of the Japanese military and political affairs.

It is highly likely that all of these people have now been captured.

What to do?

The headquarters of the 16th Division was gloomy, and Nakajima was the most miserable, and this time his military career was about to end.

"Division commander, the dispatch army headquarters has called, and the new commander of the dispatch army, His Excellency General Shunroku Hata, has ordered our department to establish a defensive position on the spot and wait for reinforcements to arrive."

"When will the reinforcements arrive?" Chang Yong asked with concern, he had just escaped and was not clear about the situation.

"Reinforcements will arrive tomorrow morning at the latest. Its striker has reached Jurong. ”

"Why don't you come?"

"The road from Jurong to Tangshan is not easy to walk, and it is dark, and they are sleepy and tired along the way, so they will rest in Jurong for one night, and then come to meet us early tomorrow morning."

"Is that so?" Chang Yong stopped talking, feeling that although he arrived at the headquarters of the 16th Division in Tangshan, he still had a feeling of insecurity.

In Nanjing, he also clashed with 'Yaksha' several times, and knew that "Leng Feng" was a person who played cards out of common sense, if it was really him who led the action last night.

Then there's a good chance he'll do it again.

"Your Excellency, Commander of the Nakajima Division, tonight is the most dangerous. I hope the 16th Division will be on ......alert," Chang Yong eagerly suggested.

"Chang Yongjun, this is Tangshan. My 19th Brigade Headquarters, even if it is not impregnable, if the people of China want to sneak attack, I am afraid they will not be able to do it. Major General Kusaba said.

"The Chinese don't have time to take care of us now, they went out of the city today to fight with us, the purpose of which is to force us back, so as to free up time for them to clean up the law and order in the city, and they are probably still busy fighting fires everywhere!"

"This afternoon, bombers of our army air force bombed the Nanjing International Security Zone with incendiary bombs......"

"Your Excellency, the cold front of the Yaksha must not be dealt with with common sense, we must be careful." Changyong was anxious in his heart, and couldn't help but remind Nakajima Imago again.

"Chang Yongjun, I will consider your suggestion, Nakazawa-kun, please arrange for Chang Yongjun to go down to treat his injuries and rest." Nakajima said that he agreed with the judgment of Major General Kusaba and others.

At this time, the 'Yaksha' was busy purging the city of Nanjing and preparing to resist the counterattack of the Japanese Imperial Army, so did he still have the strength to launch an attack?

They don't have many troops, and Nakajima Imago, who has personally experienced the battle, is naturally clear, but their command and coordination ability is very strong, and they were caught off guard and won in chaos.

If he were to fight in a position, Nakajima was fully convinced that these improvised rabble would not be the match for the elite Imperial Japanese Army.

"Your Excellency the Division Commander, you must be careful......

Nakajima did not take Nakajima's suggestion to heart, and the Chinese army in Nanjing was conservatively estimated to be only 10,000 or 20,000 people, although these 20,000 people were better than the Xinding who had just put down his hoe, but in terms of the quality of individual soldiers, it was much worse than the samurai of the Great Japanese Empire.

If they hadn't used trickery to take away the heavy artillery, the 16th Division would not have been defeated so quickly in the city.

And heavy artillery is a sharp weapon to defend the city, they will never move easily, field battles outside the city, the Chinese are not the opponent of the Great Japanese Imperial Army at all, this he still has this confidence.

Sometimes overconfidence turns into conceit, like Nakajima Imago.

Changyong was right, he was indeed a little frightened by the 'Yaksha', but his worries were not unreasonable.

They forgot that the Chinese army in Nanjing was not all a rabble of improvised cobbling, but there were still elite divisions, such as the newly freed Xie Jiyuan detachment, which was the elite of the Japanese army in Shanghai, and now it is free, and its combat effectiveness is stronger than when it defended the four elements.

If Nakajima knew that the person who attacked tonight was Xie Jiyuan, he wouldn't have dared to be so hasty.

The battle began before dawn.

Xie Jiyuan personally led a special detachment from Fangchong Mountain to break into the Japanese camp, a place where the Japanese had recently ambushed the breakthrough troops of the Cantonese army, but now they were broken into by the Chinese army for the second time.

The chariot squadron led by Li Ye and the three main battalions supplemented by Xie Jiyuan's detachment directly entered the Japanese outpost along the road, tore a hole, and slaughtered them in a rampage.

The Japanese drama that was still asleep was caught off guard. Heavy casualties. There were not enough anti-tank weapons. I could only watch Li Ye's tank squadron clash back and forth on his position, killing rivers of blood.

Fang Chongshan was only less than a kilometer away from the headquarters of the 16th Division of the Japanese Army, and there was hardly any depth.

He began to regret that he had not listened to Changyong's advice and strengthened the vigilance of the position, and now it was too late to regret it.

"Kill!"

Xie Jiyuan had already held his breath, such an opportunity to beat the Japanese army. How could he let it go, led the team to charge personally, and killed the Japanese soldiers who were turned on their backs.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Nakajima quickly ordered a retreat, but some of the Japanese troops in Tangshan were stragglers who had escaped from the city of Nanjing, and there was no organization.

Naturally, there is no way to control this chaos, and Nakajima can only order a retreat along the Beijing-Hangzhou Highway!

The disorganized retreat turned into a rout. And it was a big rout, and morale was low. The morale of the army was weakened, and the four or five thousand Japanese troops could not withstand the blow, so they scattered in a hurry.

Xie Jiyuan immediately ordered to take advantage of the situation to cover up the killing, and more than 2,000 people chased after the Japanese army twice their own strength and killed them fiercely, and the Japanese army lost countless armor, weapons, ammunition, and various materials......

Xie Jiyuan is also measured, chasing out seven or eight miles away, he ordered the troops to be collected, and when he saw it, he would accept it, and the Japanese reinforcements had arrived in Jurong, and the so-called poor Kou Mo chased.

Leng Feng had been waiting for Xie Jiyuan's telegram, and from the beginning of the attack to the end of the attack, it took less than 45 minutes to achieve the result of defeating the enemy, killing and wounding thousands of Japanese soldiers, and taking seven or eight hundred prisoners, most of whom were wounded by Japanese soldiers.

"Order Xie Jiyuan, we don't want the wounded Japanese soldiers, and we don't want the prisoners, let him clean up the battlefield and come back immediately." Leng Feng ordered.

"Yes!"

"Tuanza, what does Deputy Commander Leng mean by this, don't take prisoners?"

"Execute the order of Deputy Commander Leng, all the wounded and prisoners should be left behind, all the weapons, equipment and supplies should be loaded into the truck, and I will be cleaned quickly, not a single screw or bullet will be left to the Japanese." Xie Jiyuan received the order and ordered the herald.

Of course, Xie Jiyuan understood what Leng Feng meant, the wounded and prisoners of the Japanese army were escorted back, not to mention that the team could not go fast, and it also consumed its own resources.

Even if you don't treat their injuries, you can't give them a bite to eat, right?

The wounded and prisoners are still handed over to the Japanese, and their own people will never be left alone, and it is their manpower and material resources that are consumed, while they themselves promise to evacuate in the shortest possible time, so why bother with their own suffering?

Nakajima saw that there were no pursuers behind him, so he ordered to stop advancing and gather the remnants.

After a little count, a mouthful of old blood spurted out directly, more than 5,000 Japanese troops, in addition to the wounded soldiers, nearly 4,000 soldiers who could fight, and now there are only 1,000 people left.

The 16th Division is one of Japan's 17 standing divisions, with nearly 30,000 men fully armed, and all the others have been sent to China except for the troops left behind in China.

After two major battles in Songhu and Nanjing, the 16th Division had been sharply reduced to 16,000 men, and in the two major battles, the 16th Division lost 8,000 men, which was still the loss of more than three months of continuous operations.

Up to now, there are less than a thousand soldiers available to him, and it is a group of defeated soldiers who have lost their fighting spirit, and Nakajima Imago was immediately stimulated to vomit blood.

"How can this be, how can this be ......"

Nakajima Imakago vomited blood while looking up to the sky and questioning, and finally collapsed.

"Division Commander! Nakajima-kun! ……”

"Nakajima-kun is gone!"

The generals of the 16th Division surrounded him, and Nakajima's body was lying on a stretcher, and the expression of questioning the sky before he died was frozen on his face.

Nakajima Imago was angry to death, and he died very aggrieved and unwilling.

This executioner, who likes to kill people and burn corpses, finally has no chance to harm the Chinese anymore.

When the news reached the Central China Dispatch Army Headquarters, all the Japanese generals were shocked, and a Japanese army lieutenant general was angry to death.

It's incredible, and it's shocking to the world!

Yaksha!

Cold!

The Great Japanese Empire will never die with you!

The new commander of the dispatch army, General Shunroku Hatata, smashed the cup and let out an extremely angry roar!

Undoubtedly, 'Yaksha' has become famous once again.

On February 1, the 27th year of the Republic of China, that is, the second day of the first month of the first month of the Wuyin year of the lunar calendar, many Japanese officers such as the commander of the Central China Dispatch Army, Toshiroku Hatata, and the chief of staff Shozo Kawabe, flew to Jurong Airport on a military plane.

Subsequently, General Hata Shunliu held an emergency military meeting at the headquarters of the 3rd Division in Jurong County to study how to deploy a strategy to retake Nanjing.

Leng Feng also received information from the Shanghai Station of the Military Command and ZG through other channels, and Shunroku Hata came.

"Did you catch it?" After receiving Xie Jiyuan's telegram, Leng Feng took a nap for two hours, and at about nine o'clock, he woke up on time, washed his face with cold water, and threw himself into intense work.

"No, we searched the area around the Confucius Temple, but we couldn't find it."

"Go down and rest, you're facing a cunning Japanese intelligence agent, and it's not easy to catch him." Leng Feng waved his hand, this Kenji Dohirahara is a Chinese expert, he can speak Chinese, and he can also slip smoothly, and he understands the Chinese people's feelings, if he hides in the crowd, it is really difficult to find out.

At present, there is no time and energy to screen the retreating people, so that if there is no way to ignore the work at hand in order to grasp the soil and fertilizer, it is because of a small loss.

Lucky for this old guy, he didn't catch it this time, and he won't be so lucky next time.

"Good news, good news, good news, good news, ......"

"Guo Weiquan, what good news, look at your mouth. Ba couldn't stop laughing. Leng Feng took a cigarette and lit it, taking a puff.

"Nakajima Isago is dead!"

"What?" Leng Feng was stunned, and everyone who was busy in the headquarters was stunned.

"It's true, this is a message from the Japanese." Guo Weiquan said in a daze.

"Telegraph me." Leng Feng ordered.

"Telegraph the military command of the Shanghai Station, pay close attention to the next move of the Japanese army, especially the movement of the Japanese army, and, check the cause of Nakajima Imago's death, ****, play the trick of mourning soldiers with me!" Leng Feng ordered with a grim face.

"Yes!"

First Army Hospital.

"Comrade Cuckoo, I was sent by my hometown, and the seventh brother asked me to say hello to you."

"Is Brother Qi in good health?"

"Brother Qi is in good health, please rest assured, I took the risk to come to Nanjing this time, first, to connect with you about the organization, and second, to convey the organization's mission to you." In front of Tang Jing, a middle-aged man with a slightly ordinary appearance, with a pair of black-rimmed glasses, looked like a teacher in a private school.

Tang Jing only knew that his name was Lao Xiao, and he was sent by his superiors to connect with her.

This time he was entrusted by the seventh brother to venture into Nanjing, the cuckoo has a special identity, he must come in person, the more one person in this line, the more dangerous it is.

"Comrade Cuckoo, the organization hopes that you can stay by his side, your identity is important and can play a huge role at a critical moment." Old Xiao said earnestly.

"What should I do?" Tang Jing was a little emotionally complicated, and even had some resistance, but she still agreed, she was not a willful little girl.

"Approach him, take care of him, protect him, and you don't have to do anything else." Lao Xiao said seriously.

"Don't you have to do anything?" Tang Jing asked in surprise.

Lao Xiao nodded: "You don't have to do anything, you don't interfere with what he does, of course, it involves your own interests, or issues of principle, you can grasp the proportions yourself." ”

"Okay, I see, in case something happens, or if there's important information, how do I contact the organization?"

"Your mission is not to gather intelligence, and your identity is to be kept absolutely secret and not to be discovered by anyone." Lao Xiao said sternly, "This is a special explanation from Seventh Brother, you have to keep this in mind." ”

"If, I mean, if they want me to marry him, what should I do?"

"In principle, superiors do not interfere with your freedom to marry, but you have to think about it before making a decision." Lao Xiao thought for a moment and said slowly.

"I see." Tang Jing nodded slightly.

"I'm leaving, I can't stay here for long." Lao Xiao did not tell Tang Jing his whereabouts, this is organizational discipline. (To be continued.) )
