"Why not?" Hatohiko Asakanomiya was still secretly proud, but when he heard that Mamoru Iinuma actually objected, he asked with a cold face.

Yes? Why not? The answer to this question is actually very simple, that is, to protect Hatohiko of Asakamiya, not afraid of 10,000, just in case! What if that person rushes to Suzhou desperately? Based on the combat strength of this branch of the people, if there is only one brigade left in Suzhou City, it will be impossible to hold it at all. Since the start of the war, there have been no less than ten high-ranking generals in the army, and if the commander of the imperial family of Chaoxiang Palace, Hatohiko, dies at the hands of that person, it will be a shame! But Mamoru Iinuma can't say this clearly, after all, he has to take into account the face of Hatohiko of Asaka Palace. Mamoru Iinuma's mind was spinning rapidly, hoping to find a suitable reason. Looking at the ever-changing stern gaze of Hatohiko of Asakamiya, Mamoru Iinuma could only reply stubbornly, "The combat style of this branch of the army in Wuxi does not follow common sense at all. They knew that the area north of Taihu Lake was already the rear of the imperial army, but they dared to go deep alone and attack Changzhou and Wuxi one after another! There is no fear of being surrounded and suppressed by the imperial army. Therefore, I suspect that this army of China is likely to be a death squad of the people of China! ”

"Death squads?" Hatohiko couldn't help frowning, and a trace of doubt appeared on his face.

"Not bad! It's the death squad. Perhaps when they first set out, they didn't plan to return alive. The reason why they went deep alone and attacked the rear of the imperial army was to disrupt the deployment of the imperial army, so as to win a respite for the Chinese army in Nanjing and Huzhou! Therefore, I suspect that after they capture Wuxi, I am afraid that they will continue to attack Suzhou, so in order to ensure the safety of Suzhou, the garrison of Suzhou must not be transferred! This branch of the army is strong in combat, if two brigades of defenders are drawn from Suzhou, in case one of those people rushes to Suzhou desperately, then Suzhou is likely to be unprotected! Mamoru Iinuma continued.

"Yo Xi! A group of death squads with a heart to die! Their bravery is enough to win the respect of the Imperial Army! Hatohiko nodded and said.

"Hayi! This is indeed a respectable group of opponents! Mamoru Iinuma lowered his head and said in agreement.

"But Iinuma-kun is probably too worried! Even if the Chinese wanted to continue to attack Suzhou, would they still have the ability to attack Suzhou after capturing Changzhou and Wuxi? Even if they still have the ability to continue the attack, but at this time, the two wings of the imperial army in Changzhou have already caught up, how can they attack Suzhou in the face of the pursuit of the imperial army? Hatohiko said slowly.

"This!" Mamoru Iinuma was speechless for a moment, because Hatohiko Asakamiya's analysis was also completely reasonable.

Without waiting for Mamoru Iinuma to say anything more, Hatohiko Asakanomiya patted Mamoru Iinuma on the shoulder with a smile and said, "Iinuma-kun, I have to say that you are still too cautious!" Wuxi is the burial place of this Chinese army, they have no way to escape, let alone attack Suzhou! ”

"But what if?" Iinuma Mamoru also wanted to continue to defend himself, because there was always a faint uneasiness in his heart, and when Hatohiko Asakanomiya said that he would transfer the Suzhou garrison to support Wuxi, the uneasiness became more and more intense. However, Hatohiko Asakanomiya's analysis is also completely reasonable, so that even if Mamoru Iinuma wants to persevere, he can't find a strong reason.

"That's it! Iinuma-kun, we must annihilate this Chinese army as soon as possible, so that we can concentrate all our strength on dealing with the main force of the Fujian army in Huzhou, and when the main force of the Fujian army is defeated, the imperial army can wave its army north to Nanjing, the capital of China! Hatohiko said with a hint of yearning in his eyes, and unconsciously looked to the west, which was the direction of Nanjing.

After thinking about it, Hatohiko Chaoxiang suddenly said with a straight face, "Iinuma-kun, immediately transfer the troops of two brigades from Suzhou to support Wuxi quickly, and be sure to annihilate the Chinese army in Wuxi as soon as possible." ”

"Hayi!" Looking at the serious expression on Hatohiko of Asaka Palace, Mamoru Iinuma could only bow down and receive the order.

At the same time, Jin Zhao left only one tank battalion to assist the infantry regiment of the 202nd Division in attacking Wuxi, but Jin Zhao personally led a large army to Suzhou. Wuxi is only 100 miles (more than 50 kilometers) away from Suzhou, and for this fully mechanized army led by Jin Zhao, it will take more than two hours at most.

"Boom" The roar of the huge motor, one after another tanks quickly advanced on the road. The checkpoints along the way from Wuxi to Suzhou could not stop the advance of this steel torrent at all.

"Dangdang!" A quick knock on the door woke up Hatohiko Asakanomiya, who had just fallen asleep, and Hatohiko Asakanomiya opened the door with a calm face, and Mamoru Iinuma, who was standing outside the door, didn't care whether Hatohiko Asakanomiya was happy or not, and said loudly, "Your Highness! Big things are wrong! The sentry post ahead is coming! Wuxi's army suddenly drove in the direction of Suzhou, and now it is less than twenty kilometers away from Suzhou! ”

"Nani!" Hatohiko, who was sleeping in a daze, immediately woke up, stared at the beads of his eyes and asked, "The people of China are coming to Suzhou, has Wuxi been lost?" ”

"I don't know, I have already ordered someone to send a telegram to the commander of the state army division in Wuxi City, asking him about the situation in Wuxi, but I haven't received a reply yet!" Mamoru Iinuma said hurriedly.

"Damn the Shina people!" Hatohiko scolded viciously, "Have the two brigades that supported Wuxi already left the city?" ”

"Yes! However, I have already told them to return to Suzhou as soon as possible. Now we don't have enough troops, so we can only defend Suzhou City! The people of China have a group of chariots, and the fortifications outside the city cannot stop the chariots of the people of China at all, so I ordered the troops to shrink the defense line and rely on the fortifications of Suzhou City to hold on! Mamoru Iinuma continued.

"Yo Xi! You're doing a great job! Hatohiko Asakanomiya patted Mamoru Iinuma on the shoulder and said, "Now we must urge the imperial army of the two brigades out of the city as soon as possible to return to help!" ”

"Report!" At this time, an officer of the army came over and said loudly, "Wuxi has received a telegram from His Excellency the General of the State Army, and the people of China still launched a fierce attack on Wuxi City, and according to the current situation, it is estimated that our department can hold out for half an hour at most." ”

Hatohiko of Asaka Palace and Mamoru Iinuma couldn't help but be shocked when they heard this, the combat power of this team is too strong! Hatohiko thought for a while and said, "Immediately order the 11th Division and the two wings in the direction of Changzhou to quickly support Suzhou!" ”

"Do you order the 3rd Division on the front to return to Suzhou?" Mamoru Iinuma asked tentatively.

"If the Third Division sends troops back to Suzhou, when will it be able to rush back to Suzhou at the earliest?" Hatohiko asked with a frown. (To be continued.) )
