The command of the 33rd Division of the Japanese Army, Lieutenant General Sakurai Province, Major General Yamamoto Shuri and others, as the battle progressed, their faces became more and more ugly. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Originally, when the Japanese army broke through the defense line of the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army, they were overjoyed, thinking that victory was imminent. However, such a long time has passed, and there is not even a trace of victory in sight. This made their hearts, which they originally put back in their stomachs, can't help but bring up again.

"What's going on? Why hasn't the Chinese been defeated yet? Could it be that the will of the people of China to resist is so strong? "Lieutenant General Sakurai was a little incredulous.

"General, maybe the people of China have invested more troops. Otherwise, they would never have resisted the attack of the Imperial Army. Even so, it would only be a waste of time for the Imperial Army to defeat them. Major General Yamamoto was determined.

Although, the delay in getting the news of the victory also made Major General Yamamoto a little worried. However, he still has to show that he is confident of victory. Otherwise, once it really fails, the consequences will be unimaginable.

"Your Excellency, Division Commander, I think it is best for us to send some reinforcements to reinforce us. In that case, we may be able to defeat the Shina soon. Tetsujiro Tanaka suggested.

Lieutenant General Sakurai frowned, he could hear what Tanaka Tetsujiro Osaku meant. Obviously, Tetsujiro Tanaka thinks they are a little too optimistic. The battle doesn't seem to be going as smoothly as they expected.

At present, the main forces of the 33rd Division of the Japanese Army have been dispatched, and there are not many remaining troops, except for the artillery wing and the division headquarters that have suffered heavy losses, there are only the engineer wing, the baggage wing, and the communication team with little combat effectiveness. The engineer wing and the baggage wing are not huge wings with more than 3,000 men like the infantry wing. There were only a few hundred of them. The baggage wing of the packhorse division of the horse pulling division is relatively large.

"Order the Engineer Wing and the Baggage Wing, draw troops, and prepare for the attack." The third lieutenant general of Sakurai Province listened to the advice of Tanaka Tetsujiro Osa and was ready to take a desperate gamble.

However, just as the Japanese sappers and baggage troops were preparing to attack, they found that the main force of the attacking Japanese army had collapsed. Moreover, there were more than 4,000 or nearly 5,000 men at the time of the attack, but now there are less than 1,000 people who have retreated.

When the third lieutenant general of Sakurai Province saw this situation, his face suddenly changed greatly, and his feet were unstable, and he almost fell to the ground. If it weren't for Tanaka Tetsujiro Osa's support, he might have really fallen.

Major General Yamamoto's face was also bloodless at all.

After seeing this, they didn't have to think about it to know that their attack had failed. Not only did it fail, but it also suffered extremely heavy losses.

"How so? How about this! We sent out thousands of valiant soldiers, or did we fight the night battles that we do best, why did we still fight like this? "Major General Yamamoto couldn't believe this reality at all.

"What the hell is going on?" The third lieutenant general of Sakurai Province also asked with red eyes. In his eyes, there were bursts of fierce light, as if he was about to eat people.

"Your Excellency, Division Commander, we have met with stubborn resistance from the Chinese people. When we first broke into the line of the China, we still had the upper hand. However, those Shina people are completely different from the Shina people we have met before. Their will to fight is very strong, and they will not be easily defeated, but would rather die with us. In the course of the battle, we inflicted considerable losses on the Chinese people. But at the same time, our losses are very large.

At the same time, the people of China continued to send reinforcements to the front. There is even a group of troops that are really elite, and their combat effectiveness is very strong, and they are not weaker than the imperial army at all. Eventually, our casualties increased, while the number of people in China increased. And, because of the severe physical exertion, we were completely suppressed by the Chinese people.

In the end, the troops finally failed to hold out and collapsed. ”

The leader of a squadron of the Japanese army, bowing his head, reported to the third lieutenant general of Sakurai Province.

"Yaga! You shit. Not only was he defeated by the Chinese people, but he also found so many excuses for failure. The third lieutenant general of Sakurai Province was furious, took two steps forward, grabbed the Japanese squadron leader by the collar, and lifted him up.

"Bang Bang!"

A series of slaps passed, and the Japanese squadron leader was soon beaten to a pig's head.

The third lieutenant general of Sakurai Province vented the anger in his heart, and the other generals and officers did not dare to stop it at all.

In the Japanese army, corporal punishment of subordinates by superiors was a very normal thing, and everyone was used to it. What's more, the third lieutenant general of Sakurai Province is the supreme commander of the 33rd Division.

The news reported by the Japanese squadron leader also brought a great shock to the Japanese army. After all, they had always believed that the Chinese* army was very weak. However, the Chinese* army in front of them is not only no worse than them in terms of combat effectiveness, but also able to compete with them in terms of will to fight. This was simply unexpected.

And this means that in this battle, the 33rd Division has lost completely.

"Your Excellency, Division Commander, it is almost dawn now, and once it dawns, it is very likely that the people of China will take the initiative to attack. Therefore, the lowly advises that we retreat at once. Wait until the 55th Division arrives, and then think about it in the long run. Tetsujiro Tanaka suggested.

Now, the 33rd Division has only more than 2,000 people left. With such a small number of troops, it is simply impossible to confront the strong Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army. If you don't retreat, I'm afraid you won't be able to escape.

A trace of entanglement flashed on the face of the third lieutenant general of Sakurai Province. Running away in such an embarrassment, he will undoubtedly become the most humiliating of all the division commanders of the Japanese army. However, if you don't run away, I'm afraid you'll lose your life.

"Yaga! Damn the Shina people, how could they be so strong! "The third lieutenant general of Sakurai Province, until this moment, still can't believe this fact. However, this is the case, and he can't believe it!

"Order all the troops to retreat at once. Retreat to a safe position, and wait until the 55th Division arrives, and then we will seek revenge on the Shina people. We have suffered heavy losses, and the losses of the people of the Bitter Chi must have been greater than ours. When the time comes, we will definitely be able to kill all these people. The third lieutenant general of Sakurai Province swore solemnly.

Although, even he himself didn't believe what he said. However, in order to boost the morale of the troops, he had to say this.

More than 2,000 troops of the Japanese 33rd Division began to flee westward in confusion.
