Section 34 Confusion

"Captain, look!" Lin Xiufeng shouted anxiously, stretched out his hand and pointed to the distance, and looked in the direction of his finger, only to see that on the horizon not far away, you could vaguely see Japanese soldiers shuttling and marching, and the earthy yellow military uniform looked particularly dazzling in the early morning when the sky had just brightened.

The sky had already brightened unconsciously, and it was precisely because of this that the stone was secretly frightened, because when his eyes had seen the distance, he finally confirmed the doubts and incomprehensions in his heart, and finally confirmed the current situation, they were surrounded by devils!

This sounds a little incredible, because they appeared so suddenly, and even had the good luck to run into the Japanese command, and even until now, Li Shijian was still in hot pursuit with a company, but this is the case, they were indeed surrounded, it is not that their scouts are not working hard enough, it is not that their movements are not fast enough, but the situation of the entire battlefield seems to be completely controlled by the enemy, no matter how hard they try, it is difficult to change this huge disadvantage. As long as they were close to Gao'an City, the Japanese troops deployed with Gao'an as the center poured in from all directions like a tidal wave, besieging them here.

Shi let out a long breath, but there was no expression on his face, and his dark and thin face looked extraordinarily resolute and full of confidence in the somewhat cold morning.

Lin Xiufeng looked at the stone, as if he had drawn a lot of confidence from his resolute expression, and the previous anxiety had disappeared a lot, he lowered his voice and asked, "Tuanzao, our back road has been robbed by devils, what should we do next?" Did you enter the city and refuse to defend it? ”

"Is there any news from the city? Where did Li Wenguang's troops go? Stone asked calmly.

"There is no news yet, but judging from the sound of gunfire, the battle in the city seems to have stabilized the situation, it seems that there are not many troops left in the city by a battalion, and the strength of the devil is also very limited." Lin Xiufeng frowned and said.

Shi nodded and said, "Gao'an City is actually a trap, and the bait is a battalion of brothers who have been broken. After a pause, Shi sighed and said: "If we had previously gathered a battalion of troops to break through and chased after the headquarters of the devils, the problem of breaking through should not be big, we appeared suddenly, and it was dark, the devils' forces had no time to adjust, and it was impossible to surround us." But after approaching Gao'an City, it is equivalent to entering the devil's defense area, and we will be passive in this battle, after all, we have no advantage in terms of strength or battlefield initiative. ”

Lin Xiufeng smiled bitterly and said: "That being said, but if we don't come here, Camp Commander Liu and they will have no hope at all, since the devils can surround us here, then Gao'an City will be under their full control." ”

"So the entire Gao'an City is a trap, as long as we are reluctant to leave these brothers, the devil is not afraid that we will not be fooled. Hmph, these little devils know us very well, much better than the ones we have encountered before. Stone snorted coldly and said.

Lin Xiufeng shook his head helplessly, but gradually recovered from the initial shock, he looked into the distance, and said a little strangely: "Tuanzuo, we have been surrounded now, why don't the devils attack yet?" If we shrink the defensive line and retreat into Gao'an City to refuse to defend the city, with our current strength, wouldn't it be more difficult for the devils to take it down? ”

Shi waved his hand and said: "No matter what the devil thinks, now that we have been surrounded, then we can't give the devil a chance to take advantage of it, as long as we hold our position, we may not have a chance to turn defeat into victory, and want to eat us?" It depends on whether the devil has such a big appetite! ”

Just when the 3rd Battalion of the 302nd Regiment was busy building a position, the headquarters of the 1st Brigade of the Japanese Capital Wing not far from the position of the 3rd Battalion was also in chaos.

Takeo Go, Nakamura Toshihide and other Japanese officers looked at the enemy positions in front of them with binoculars from a long distance, and their expressions were solemn, without the slightest hint of joy surrounding the enemy.

"What's going on? Where did so many troops come out? How is it possible that the enemy still has reinforcements? Takeo Wu was silent for a long time and then suddenly spoke, asking in a sharp tone.

"Your Excellency, this branch of the army should be the one that attacked the wing headquarters last night, after capturing Chazi Mountain, their main force moved closer to Gao'an City, the situation was a little chaotic some time ago, the troops rushing out of the city and the retreat of the wing headquarters made our scouts have to hide everywhere for a while, and they have not returned until before." It was the reconnaissance team leader of the first brigade who reported the situation, and in the cool morning at the moment, he was actually sweating profusely, and he didn't know whether he was busy or frightened by the current situation.

"This enemy army has some guts, after capturing Chazi Mountain, they actually dare to move closer to Gao'an City, aren't they afraid of being surrounded? Could it be that they have reinforcements behind them? Liu Shengjun, did your reconnaissance team conduct reconnaissance on the front line of Xiangfu Temple? Deputy Captain Toshihide Nakamura said thoughtfully.

"Your Excellency, there has been a squad of troops reserved in the north, previously because I was afraid of exposing my whereabouts, but now that the people of China have evacuated the front line of Chazi Mountain, if there is news of the people of China, they should be able to report it as soon as possible." The leader of the reconnaissance team said respectfully.

Nakamura Toshihide nodded with satisfaction, and at this time, Takeo Gochi spoke again: "Is there any news from the wing department?" Where is His Excellency Captain Sonoda now? ”

"I am still retreating to the northwest, and I am almost six or seven miles away from Gao'an City." The leader of the reconnaissance team responded.

Takeo Wu was stunned for a moment, and then scolded angrily: "The people of China are still chasing behind? ”

"Yes, Your Excellency, the troops of the Chinese people started from Chazi Mountain and have been closely following the wing headquarters, although the wing headquarters joined one of our squadrons outside the city and has been strengthened in strength, but the enemy's troops who broke through the city have also been following behind, and there have been several waves of exchanges along the way, and the situation at the wing headquarters is not very good." The leader of the reconnaissance team said a little nervously.

From his expression, Takeo Wu had already guessed some of the situation, the situation at the wing headquarters was probably not not very good, but quite bad, from the battle of Chazi Mountain to the present, it was too long to pause and rest, and there were several battles in succession, and the losses were so heavy that it was probably unimaginable! This put him in a dilemma, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

Going to the rescue wing headquarters? Then Gao'an City is about to be completely controlled by the enemy, he only sent the second brigade into the city before, he thought that he would soon control Gao'an, but he didn't expect the situation to become so complicated! Take Gao'an City first and annihilate the enemy forces here, and then go northwest? Not to mention whether they have the ability to eat the enemy army in front of them with their current three-part strength, the most important thing is that the battle here does not know when it will be over, and once the enemy retreats into the city to defend it without artillery support, it will be a disaster for them, the enemy can drag it out, but the wing headquarters Sonoda Wing and others can't afford to drag it out.

"Takeo-kun, let's contact Iijima-kun and the executive officer of the third brigade immediately, the enemy in Gao'an City at the moment is not that we didn't have enough troops and sufficient preparation when we first came, and it is difficult to eat the enemy in one go." Saying that, Nakamura Toshihide took a breath and said, "I knew that this would happen, we should have attacked first with the second squadron before, and we would be invincible by controlling Gao'an City in our hands." ”

Takeo Wu shook his head and sighed: "We entered the city, the enemy army blocked us in the city, the situation is not much better than now, Nakamura-kun, you have always been resourceful, this time, you help me get an idea, how to solve the current situation?" ”

Nakamura Toshihide looked at the captain a little strangely, it seemed that in his impression, it was the first time he had heard Takeo Go's words like this, and he thought that this battle really gave him a headache! From last night to now, all kinds of uncontrollable situations have appeared, completely disrupting their deployment, if I had known that such a situation would occur, I'm afraid no one would have put forward any idea of besieging the city to send reinforcements, right? If they attack Gao'an as soon as they arrive at the city, and then stick to Gao'an, although there are not many enemies to destroy, but the enemy wants to take back this city, I'm afraid it won't be so easy, how can they be passive everywhere like now?

But where in this world is there any regret medicine to buy? What has happened, there is no room for change. Especially on the battlefield, the commanders of the two armies, who is not racking their brains to put the other to death?

"Your Excellency, around Gao'an City, there is not only one unit of our first brigade, the second brigade is not far south of Gao'an, and the third brigade is in Xiangfu Town, according to my opinion, no matter which brigade attacks Gao'an, it has enough strength to take it, but we are now divided into three, attacking Gao'an is the most inappropriate choice, in this case, let's go to reinforce the wing headquarters, as long as we relieve the siege of the wing team headquarters, and go back to fight Gao'an, there is no big problem." After thinking about it, Nakamura Toshihide said without the slightest shirk.

Takeo nodded his head, apparently agreeing with the idea put forward by his deputy. It seems that he has gone around the tip of the horns by himself, and he only thinks about his first brigade to solve everything, take a step back, and hand over the battle here to other troops to fight, it is indeed a wonderful move, both battlefields can be taken into account, and they are also sure enough, and it should still be in time to hurry up a little bit.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but hate and said: "Iijima-kun should have retreated an hour ago, why hasn't he withdrawn yet, if the second brigade can move quickly and come to meet us at the first time, where will there be so much trouble?" The second brigade had been fighting the pinning forces of the Chinese army all night in the south, and I really didn't know what was going on in their heads? ”

Nakamura Toshihide couldn't help but cough lightly twice when he heard this, this kind of complaint is really not something he can interject.

"Send someone to tell Iijima-kun, Gao An's battle here, he will do it himself, let's go to reinforce the captain of the wing, and the third brigade, without Yamada-kun, he can't even fight, and the road to here hasn't been opened for such a long time, what are these people doing?"
