With the temporary division headquarters of the army, it was completely plunged into a sea of fire. The artillery group, which had already fired three rounds of shells, immediately began to fight on its own, firing accurate shells into the group of devils, clearing the way for the infantry to charge..."Boom, boom, boom..."Under the special command of Commander Wang Nanhu, the entire shelling lasted for ten minutes. Thousands of shells, by these artillerymen, as if they didn't want money, completely poured on the artillery positions of the little devils. As the last shell on the battlefield exploded, the smoke slowly cleared... The tragic battlefield once again shocked everyone present.

Although, on the huge position of the army, there were no craters with a depth of half a meter after heavy artillery bombardment. However, as far as the eye can see, the entire position is almost stained red with the blood of the little devils, and everywhere there are stumps and broken arms of the little devils who have been blown off, internal organs... What's more, those little devil soldiers who were blown off their bodies and had this trace of life were dragging bloody broken legs and intestines on the battlefield stained red with blood, wailing on the battlefield to see the scene in front of them, and the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army who passed through the battlefield felt a little better, after all, they had all walked through the sea of blood. However, those soldiers of the Imperial Cooperative Army who had not been on any battlefield were indeed frightened to the point that their faces turned white, and many soldiers had already squatted on the ground and began to vomit heavily.

However, there is no time for them to emerge from the shock of what will happen. Because, the loud trumpet of the charge has reached their ears..."Tick-tock... Tick-tock...", with the inspiring sound of the charge horn, quickly reached the ears of everyone on the battlefield. The soldiers, who were still stunned just now, immediately showed a look of excitement in their eyes, and they were ready to rush to kill..."Comrades, kill with me, eliminate the 108th Division of the Japanese Army, and kill all the little devils..." A soldier immediately picked up the rifle with the bayonet loaded, quickly jumped out of the trench, followed closely behind his company commander, platoon commander, and even squad leader, formed an offensive formation one after another, and quickly rushed towards the position of the Japanese army, which had become a ruin... As far as the eye can see, this unit responsible for the attack is like a sharp sword unsheathed, fiercely plunging into the position where the headquarters of the division and regiment of the army is located... And after the baptism of just a few thousand shells, there are less than 2,000 little devil soldiers, and at this moment, there are only about 500 people left... Even the remaining 500 or so little devils are still scattered on the battlefield within a radius of several kilometers... In the face of the attacking troops of the Eighth Route Army, which were as fast as swords, these sporadic little devils, who resisted for less than a few minutes, were driven around by one army after another... In less than half an hour, in the entire battlefield, except for the cheers of the soldiers, not a single gunshot could be heard. The 2,000 little devils, from the division commander to all the officers and men, except for those who were directly killed by artillery shells, almost all of the remaining devil soldiers have become ghosts under the swords of the soldiers..."The commander reported that the commanders of the three main regiments sent a telegram at the same time, saying that all the officers and men of the 108th Division of the army had been completely annihilated by our army just a few minutes ago. The division commander was also killed by a shell..."In the temporary command post, political commissar Chen Revolution, holding a telegram, rushed into the headquarters with an excited face, and said happily to Wang Nanhu in front of him..."Okay... Well played... Quick, Lao Chen, immediately report to the commander and political commissar, our three divisions, all annihilated the 108th Division of the Army... So far, of the 70,000 puppet troops attacking our base area from the direction of Baoding, except for more than 20,000 troops of the Imperial Allied Army, none of the remaining troops of the Imperial Army have escaped the net, and all of them have been wiped out..."Wang Nanhu slapped the ammunition box in front of him, and shouted excitedly at the people in the headquarters..."Yes, commander, I will report to the commander and political commissar immediately..." After speaking, Chen Revolution left with an excited face.

"Chief of Staff, inform the various units to immediately start cleaning the battlefield and treating the wounded. In addition, Comrade Liu Hao of the Special Operations Brigade reported that all the weapons and ammunition of the 20th Division and the 108th Division of the Yue Army buried under the ruins of Baoding City were basically not damaged, especially all the heavy artillery attached to the two divisions. So, you arrange all the puppet army troops and the three main regiments to dig up all the weapons and ammunition for me before dawn from the ruins... The little devils have worked so hard to send us weapons, and we can't do without. Looking at the departing political commissar, Wang Nanhu ordered to the chief of staff beside him.

Similarly, when all the commanders and fighters of the Third Division, under the command of Commander Wang Nanhu, completely annihilated the 70,000-strong army of the Yue Army. All the commanders and fighters of the Second Army Division led by Gao Yuan also achieved a very great victory... After a blast that night, and hours of scuffle, only 40,000 men remained of the 70,000-strong army. However, of these more than 40,000 people, the army alone accounts for three-quarters... So, to a certain extent, the challenges faced by the second division are almost twice as many as those faced by the third division... What's more, on the second day of the explosion in Shanyin County, several wing-sized reinforcements rushed towards Yinshan County, like a kitten smelling fishy smell, under the command of General Okamura Ningji. Therefore, the combat time left for all the commanders and fighters of the 2nd Division was only two days and two nights... In the limited period of two days and two nights, under the cover of nearly 100 heavy artillery pieces of the artillery unit, the 2nd Sub-district stripped the troops on the periphery from their positions layer by layer, as if they were undressing, and constantly killed and injured their living forces... At the same time, the tactics of division and encirclement are constantly used to eliminate them little by little... Therefore, when the reinforcements from all walks of life rushed to the battlefield, the 40,000 puppet army, after two days of fierce fighting, had less than half of the troops left... And the 30,000 main forces of the 2nd Division, in the face of the swarming reinforcements of the little devils, chose to retreat wisely... In the end, the entire campaign ended successfully after less than three days... More than 70,000 puppet troops, under the timely rescue of reinforcements from all walks of life, there were only less than 15,000 little devils left plus more than 5,000 Imperial Cooperative Army troops, and fled the battlefield in a hurry. As for all the heavy weapons and ammunition they carried, they became the trophies of the three consecutive days of fighting in the 2nd Division.

And at the end of the battles in Sanyin and Baoding, the headquarters of the Yue Army in Shijiazhuang was indeed in chaos. In particular, in the telecommunications room of the artillery of the headquarters, all the telegraph operators stuck to their own radio stations, and constantly called the numbers of several units into the microphone, hoping to get a reply from the other side... And these troops are the 108th Division of the Yue Army, which has just been wiped out by the Third Division, and the reinforcements of the Yue Army of a wing that has also been wiped out by the Third Division... In the end, under the rescue of reinforcements, the 9th Division of the Chinese Army, which had just escaped from the encirclement of tens of thousands of troops in the Second Division, had not yet had time to set up a radio station..."Baga, what's going on, why haven't these troops been contacted yet?" Ba Ge Yalu, what are you doing in the telecommunications room, all of them are dead..."In the noisy telecommunications room, after staying for half an hour and still not receiving any reply, the commander of the army, General Okamura Ninji, also began to get anxious. Facing the communication staff officer beside him, he roared loudly, using it to vent his worries and dissatisfaction at this moment..."Hi... Your Excellency, Commander, we will certainly make a non-stop call to several troops, and report to Your Excellency the Commander as soon as there is any news. Please calm your anger and take care of your health.0...."The communications staff officer lowered his head and replied in a trembling voice..."Bage Yalu, if you can't contact these troops before tomorrow morning, you're dead... Bang..."After saying that, the commander, General Okamura Ninji, pushed open the door of the telecommunications room and walked out in a huff... Only the chief of staff who was left in a daze, standing coldly in the telecommunications room... At the same time, the telecommunications room, which had been noisy just now, was instantly quiet because of a loud shout from His Excellency the Commander. All the telegraph operators, at the first time, focused their eyes on the communication staff of their direct superiors standing there, waiting for new orders..."Baga, all stunned for what to do, immediately called. If it is not possible to contact the respective units before dawn. Before I die, I'll shoot you all, Ba Ge Yalu..."The communications staff officer swept through the dozens of operators in the telecommunications room and ordered fiercely..."Hey..."Dozens of operators replied at the same time. In an instant, the entire telecommunications room became noisy again... Finally, after almost an hour of continuous calling, the 9th Division of the Yue Army, which had successfully broken through the siege, finally set up its own radio station and prepared to send a report to His Excellency the Commander in Shijiazhuang, reporting the specific losses of his troops... And as soon as they set up the radio, they got in touch with the telecommunications room of the headquarters..."Report to Your Excellency Commander, we have contacted the 9th Division..." Just after the telecommunications room received the first reply from the 9th Division, the communications staff officer took the telegram, and without even reading the contents, hurriedly rushed into the office of the commander, General Okamura Ninji, and replied with an excited face..."Yo Xi, very good, bring me the telegram from the 9th Division immediately, hurry up..." General Okamura Ninji's frowning brows were immediately relaxed. Quickly took the telegram handed by the communications staff officer and began to read it... However, after reading the contents of the telegram, Okamura Ninji's face wrinkled again.

"Yaga, how can this be... How could the troops lose so many people, a full 50,000 troops, eight grid of teeth..."Finally, after a minute of silence in the entire office, the commander General Okamura Ninji, who was frowning, finally couldn't hold back the anger in his heart, and roared loudly at the communications staff officer in front of him..."Hey..."In the face of the inexplicable anger of the former commander, although the communications staff officer was very aggrieved, he could only lower his head and bear the angry scolding of the commander General Okamura Ningji..."Yaga, How could the Reading Force Division have such a strong combat effectiveness, a full 30,000 elite Imperial Army soldiers, 15,000 Imperial Association officers and soldiers, were completely annihilated by 30,000 Eighth Route Army troops in less than three days. If it weren't for the timely arrival of reinforcements, the remaining 20,000 troops of our army would have been completely annihilated. "Okamura continued to scold... And it was only at this moment that the communications staff officer knew why His Excellency the commander in front of him, after reading the telegram, was inexplicably angry at himself. However, in just a split second, he was also frightened by the flurry of data that the commander had just said... The entire 50,000 army was completely annihilated by the 30,000 army of the Eighth Route Army, so how strong is the combat effectiveness of the Eighth Route Army at this moment?

"Baga, your telecommunications room, haven't you contacted the 108th Division, as well as the 39th Infantry Wing that reinforces Baoding..."After some angry scolding, Okamura Ningji suddenly thought of the direction of Baoding, and the 70,000 troops who still had no news hurriedly asked the communication staff officer in front of him.

"Hi, Your Excellency Commander, our telegrapher, has been calling both forces without stopping. So far, however, there has been no response from either force. Your Excellency, Commander, is it possible that the radio stations of the two armies were unable to receive and receive telegrams due to an accident...", the communications staff officer suddenly reacted from his shock and quickly replied.

"Nani, the radio is damaged... How is it possible, the 108th Division is fully equipped with dozens of radios, how can it be damaged at the same time. Besides, the reinforcements were not attacked by the troops of the Rehe Eighth Route Army during the march, so how could their radio station be damaged..."Okamura Ninji asked loudly..."Hi, Your Excellency Commander... I heard that there was an advanced radio signal shielding device in the reader. Therefore, he believes that if there is no problem with the radio stations of the two armies, it must be that the Eighth Route Army has used this equipment to block all the radio stations used by the two troops, so they cannot receive and receive telegrams..."The communications staff officer continued to explain.

"Yo Xi, it's very likely... In this way, immediately notify the aviation unit, and immediately dispatch reconnaissance planes after dawn to carry out a large-scale reconnaissance around Baoding City, and we must find out the specific situation of the 108th Division in the shortest possible time..." Okamura Ninji nodded and ordered: "Hi, Your Excellency Commander, I will immediately go and convey the order..." The chief of staff of communications breathed a sigh of relief and replied.

With the arrival of dawn, three reconnaissance planes quickly lifted off at Shijiazhuang Airport. With a huge roar, it flew in the direction of Baoding City... After almost eight hours of flight, the three planes finally entered the territory of Baoding... At an altitude of nearly 1,000 meters, the three pilots, almost immediately, discovered the city of Baoding, which had been bombed into ruins and was emitting puffs of gunsmoke

However, just when the three planes flew quickly to Baoding City, lowered the fuselage, and prepared to conduct a low-altitude reconnaissance, the scene on the ground almost stunned them..."Ah, Baga, how can there be so many corpses of imperial soldiers on the ground, what happened, the soldiers of the 108th Division..."One by one, the pilots looked at the messy corpses of the imperial soldiers on the ground, and at the same time showed a look of shock, and exclaimed one after another into the microphone next to their mouths..."Baga, the cunning Eighth Route Army, It must have been last night that a surprise attack was launched on my valiant Imperial troops, it must have been. Command reconnaissance aircraft No. 1 to fly east to reconnoiter and find the whereabouts of reinforcements. Aircraft No. 2 and I continued to search the neighborhood and immediately began to execute..."After a few seconds of shock, the team leader gave the order to the plane behind him.

In the end, after half an hour of flight searching, the bodies of 4,000 little devils of the reinforcements and 20,000 soldiers of the 108th Division were all found by the pilots of the three planes. As for the troops of the Imperial Allied Army and the troops of the Eighth Route Army that launched the attack, they had already run away without a trace, and they didn't even see a shadow at all..." The Eighth Route Army is really very cunning. All the officers and men of our 108th Division, together with the reinforcements, were completely wiped out, and the Baga..." At the same time, at the first time, the news reached the ears of Okamura Ningji, the commander of the army.

"Yaga... 150,000 troops... It was lost in my hands... Your Majesty the Emperor, I, Okamura Ninji, have betrayed your trust, and I'm sorry for the Great Empire..."When Commander Okamura Ninji read the telegram of the annihilation of the 70,000-strong army in the direction of Baoding, the whole person suddenly seemed to be several years old, and he knelt on the ground in a daze, and said to himself in the direction where the commander was..."Your Excellency Commander, please take care of your body..." Seeing the scene in front of him, the deputy chief of staff hurriedly came over and comforted.

"Yaga, let me out, no one is allowed to come in without my order, go out immediately..."Okamura Ninji scolded loudly, just after the chief of staff and others quickly left the room and closed the door of the office, Okamura Ninji slowly stood up from the ground, walked to his desk, put the command knife on the table, and His Majesty the Emperor personally handed over to him, and picked it up... Then, facing the position where Yuben was, he knelt on the ground again. Slowly took off his shirt, slowly pulled out the bright command knife, and aimed it at his lower abdomen..."Long live His Majesty the Emperor..."A roar came out of Okamura Ningji's mouth, and the command knife in his hand was inserted into his lower abdomen accurately without accident...
