What the chief of staff of the Japanese army did not expect was that because of his hesitation and hesitation, the situation in Laiyuan in favor of the Japanese army suddenly became chaotic one day later. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Under the blockade of the guard platoon, the Japanese soldiers who went to Wuzhen to reconnoitre, almost one was killed. Until the afternoon of the same day, the chief of staff of the Japanese army did not receive any useful information.

The same goes for the direction of Shuiquan Village.

Because it was impossible to figure out how many Eighth Route Army troops were hiding in Qingquan Village, and the strength of the Japanese army in Laiyuan City was limited, there were fewer troops to reconnoiter in Shuiquan Village, and they were wiped out by the blockade troops of the Eighth Route Army before they entered the village.

more, and worried that they would be ambushed by the Eighth Route Army and the whole army would be annihilated. After all, the Eighth Route Army completely annihilated the strength of an elite infantry squadron of the Imperial Army in a few minutes.

After losing a lot of elite scouts yesterday, despite Ono's request to increase the reconnaissance of Shuiquan Village. However, the chief of staff did not send valuable officers and men of the imperial army. Instead, he ordered the puppet army troops to change into ordinary people's clothes and constantly send people to Shuiquan Village to find out the situation.

Many puppet soldiers don't really want to sell their lives to devils. In the face of the Eighth Route Army that suddenly appeared around, the puppet army wearing the clothes of the people directly admitted that they were puppet soldiers, and then handed over their weapons and surrendered, without any idea of resisting.

Zeng Quan, who originally thought that he would not gain anything by staying in Shuiquan Village, was already smiling because he was satisfied with the results by four or five o'clock in the afternoon.

More than 20 Mauser pistols and more than 80 puppet army prisoners, which was the result of Zeng Quan's day.

Whether it was a Mauser pistol or a puppet army prisoner, it was urgently needed by the separate battalion. Zeng Quan was confident that after sending these gains to the instructors, it would only take a few days for the independent battalion to have more than one platoon of troops.

However, the chief of staff of the Japanese army wanted to cry without tears at this time, and did not get useful information, and the reconnaissance troops sent out to the city almost disappeared one after another.

You know, many of them are the most elite scouts in the infantry, and if you lose one, you will lose one. Even the Japanese army, which had deep pockets, could not withstand such a rate of loss.

Moreover, the wing commander Ono Osa gave himself a day to investigate, and seeing that the day had passed, he did not get any valuable information. If Ono Osa wants to be held responsible, he himself, as chief of staff, will definitely bear the main responsibility.

Looking at the sky outside, which had slowly darkened, the chief of staff could only walk into Ono's office and report the results of his nothing.

"Baga, what does the staff do to eat, and what does the reconnaissance unit eat? There is also a garrison regiment, it is better for the empire to raise them than to raise a group of waste, such a small thing can't be done, Bageya Road! Ono, who had been holding back his anger and had no place to vent, scolded at the chief of staff.

The chief of staff did not dare to have the slightest intention of refutation, and bowed his head to bear it.

It wasn't until the captain was tired of scolding that he weakly asked, "Captain, what should I do next?" Will you continue to send troops to reconnoitre, or? ”

Ono shook his head, and then replied with a calm face: "Don't check, there is no result for such a long time, and it is useless to investigate further, and it will also lose troops in vain, buy time for the Eighth Route Army!" ”

"What do you mean, Captain?" The chief of staff breathed a sigh of relief and asked.

"Send troops directly!" Ono's face quickly radiated a thick burst of killing.

"Since I can't figure out the strength of the Eighth Route Army, then I'll bring all the main forces over. Even if the Eighth Route Army hides two main regiments in Shuiquan Village, no, three main regiments, I am not afraid of them! ”

"Order the Matsui Brigade, the Laiyuan Garrison Regiment, and the Mountain Artillery Squadron of the United Brigade to prepare for leaving the station immediately, we will set off at ten o'clock in the evening, go to Shuiquan Village at two o'clock in the morning, and also give the Eighth Route Army a night attack!"

The chief of staff immediately reminded: "But in this way, there is only one infantry squadron and one baggage squadron left in Laiyuan City!" If there is any conspiracy of the Eighth Route Army, Laiyuan City will be very dangerous, they are too good at sneak attacks! ”

"You're right, that's why I've been letting you know the strength of the Eighth Route Army and why ninjas don't send troops. We have limited troops, few sorties, and we are likely to be ambushed by the Eighth Route Army. There are more, and there are fewer defenders in Laiyuan City! Ono frowned and analyzed.

"Humiliation has betrayed the trust of His Excellency the Wing Captain, please punish the Wing Captain! But I still think that there are too few troops left. Although there is no news from the stronghold of Wuzhen, I am sure that the stronghold must have been captured by the Eighth Route Army, and it is still unclear whether this Eighth Route Army and the Eighth Route of Shuiquan Village are together, if not, then as soon as we leave Laiyuan City, the Eighth Route in the direction of Wuzhen may rush towards the county seat! The chief of staff lowered his head with a look of regret, and then voiced his concerns!

Ono's already frowning brow wrinkled even deeper at this time, this was indeed a very difficult choice.

Whether it was the Eighth Route Army in Shuiquan Village or the Eighth Route Army in the direction of Wuzhen, he wanted to eliminate it. But there is a premise that the safety of Laiyuan City cannot be affected.

You must know that when you retreated from the front line, the extra equipment of the division and regiment due to the loss of troops, including the equipment of the Chinese army captured on the battlefield, was all hoarded in the county town and was ready to be used when forming a garrison brigade.

If the county seat was occupied by the Eighth Route Army when he sent his troops, those weapons would fall into the hands of the Eighth Route Army. With the speed at which the Eighth Route Army pulls its troops, it won't take too long for its own enemy to have at least two more regiments, which will definitely have a huge impact on the stability of Laiyuan and even the surrounding counties.

When the time comes, not only will he not get the so-called war exploits, but he will also become a sinner of the Great Japanese Empire!

"Yaga, this is really a difficult choice! However, the Eighth Route Army in the direction of Shuiquan Village, we can't wait any longer. They have destroyed more than 200 of our warriors, and they must eat them to avenge the warriors who died in battle! Ono, who was hesitant, finally made a ruthless decision.

"In this way, a battalion from the garrison regiment was transferred to stay and coordinate the defense, and the garrison regiment was better at defense than battlefield offense and field warfare. Also, isn't there a crippled squadron of heavy machine guns in the city? Heavy machine guns were drawn from the arsenal to equip them. In this case, even if the Eighth Route Army comes to a regiment, don't even think about taking Laiyuan City! ”

"Besides, we are directly opposite the First Army Division of the Eighth Route Army, with three main regiments and some local troops. Unless they have the ability to sprinkle beans into soldiers, Laiyuan City will definitely be safe! ”

The chief of staff also felt that there was no problem with such an arrangement, after all, Ono's analysis just now was true.

In order to make up for his mistakes during the day, the chief of staff did not say a word, and immediately left the headquarters to arrange for the troops to be sent out.

Because the troops spared a lot of roads in order to avoid the stronghold of the Japanese puppet army, when Wang Ping led the team to the Guanliang stronghold, it was already dark, but from a distance I saw that the stronghold of the Japanese puppet army in Guanliang was still lit with two lights.

originally thought that the Guanliang stronghold where more than 100 Japanese puppet troops were stationed was the same as the one he encountered earlier, but after he really got closer, Wang Ping knew that he was wrong, and then his brows subconsciously wrinkled.

Because, Wang Ping actually saw a cannon port in the stronghold, a brick and stone running building almost three stories high, standing tall in the middle of the stronghold!
