Chapter 908: The Price of Impulsiveness (First Update!) )

Lieutenant General Ito felt the tremendous pressure, as did Wang Ping.

The fierce counterattack of the Japanese army on the battlefield caused Wang Ping's troops to be reduced by two platoons again.

Such a powerful ambush firepower can be called a perfect layout, and it is also the night battle and ambush warfare that the Eighth Route Army is best at...... The troops also suffered such large losses. Wang Ping didn't dare to imagine how much the new regiment would have to pay in the frontal battle that the devil had to fight after he arrived in Linfen.

"Regiment commander, it's about to dawn, and the engineer company is also here, do you start to arrange the battlefield and find a way to kill the devil engineer wing......" Wang Ping kept his face calm and didn't speak, and Li Wen next to him couldn't help but ask.

"Arrange ......" Wang Ping quickly reacted.

"Company Commander Chen, bury all the remaining heavy artillery shells and explosives on the road, form a 200-meter explosion point, and detonate these heavy artillery shells and explosives by means of electric detonation, killing all the devils who entered this section of the highway and destroying all the engineering vehicles!"

"Please rest assured, the engineer company has brought all the wires and explosives in our stock when it comes, and it will definitely be able to prepare a big surprise for the devils on the highway!" Chen Jianqiao replied confidently.

Then he asked, "Where is it arranged...... Or right in front of the little devil's station? ”

"No...... Be farther away......" Wang Ping shook his head and denied.

"The devils must already know that we can destroy their chariots with explosives, so after they start marching at dawn, they will definitely be very cautious, and it is not ruled out that they will use mine detectors to check the road!"

"Arrange it at a distance of twenty kilometers from their station, and it should be arranged according to the degree of damage to the road~"

"The section of the road where the minefield is arranged, the degree of damage is deeper, let the devil sappers concentrate on that section of the road as much as possible!"

"Also, all blasting points can only be placed on the side of the road, not in the middle of the road. And it has to be buried deeply, otherwise they will come out as soon as the engineering vehicle is smashed! ”

At the Japanese garrison, 30,000 little devils got up and were packing their tents, both busy and orderly.

Lieutenant General Ito's tent was not packed, and at six o'clock in the morning, all the officers above the rank of wing commander were summoned to the headquarters.

Seeing that Lieutenant General Ito's face was not good-looking, everyone did not speak.

"Everyone, everyone should know about last night's battle...... The cunning Eighth Route Army planted explosives and heavy artillery on the battlefield in advance, destroying a total of five of our chariots, and also destroying nearly 1,000 of our imperial troops, giving us a head-on blow...... To tell the truth, I was very shocked, I didn't expect that a regiment of the Eighth Route Army would have the courage to launch a sneak attack on our 30,000 imperial troops, and it succeeded...... This is simply a disgrace to the imperial army, a disgrace to our divisions......"

Seeing that Lieutenant General Ito was getting angrier and angrier the more he talked, the heads of more than a dozen wing commanders who had been lowered were even lower at this time, and they couldn't wait to shrink their necks directly into their military coats.

If the subordinates don't speak, Lieutenant General Ito can only continue to speak!

"In order to wash away this shame and let the Eighth Route Army know the strong combat effectiveness of our division...... I have decided that in the next battle with the Eighth Route Army, our division will not leave any prisoners, and all the Eighth Route Army will be wiped out......"

"In their so-called base areas, if they encounter the common people of China who dare to resist, they will all be wiped out. I want to let them know the military might of the Imperial Japanese Army, kill them the courage to resist the Imperial Army, so that they will never have the courage to betray the Imperial Army again! ”

When he said this, Lieutenant General Ito directly showed a murderous expression.

More than a dozen wing commanders replied in unison: "Hi ......"

Lieutenant General Ito's face looked much better, and he quickly shifted his gaze to the chief of staff: "The Eighth Route Army can plant explosives and heavy artillery shells on the battlefield to destroy our chariots, then it is possible to continue to destroy our chariots in the same way on the road we are going to march today...... Has your staff thought of a solution. I don't want the tank brigade to lose anything before it enters Linfen again......"

"Hey......" the chief of staff replied immediately.

"The next road must have been damaged by the Eighth Route Army, and the lowly intend to order the engineering wing to repair the road while clearing mines...... This way it is guaranteed that there are no explosives on the road! ”

"Can you keep up?" This is the main concern of Lieutenant General Ito!

"It's going to be half as slow as yesterday...... In order to ensure safety, no corner of the highway can be spared, and it can only be cleared little by little......"

"No...... It's too slow......" Before the chief of staff could finish speaking, Lieutenant General Ito interrupted and vetoed.

After frowning and hesitating for a few seconds, he made a decision: "You can divide the demining sappers into several groups, each team is responsible for a section of a hundred meters of road, so that you can clear several hundred meters of road at a time, and the speed will be several times faster......"

"The general is wise, and he will arrange ...... after a while," the chief of staff replied with a twinkle in his eyes.

More than an hour later, the Japanese forward unit set off, along with the engineer wing. As soon as they entered the highway, they were divided into five teams and scattered along a section of the road nearly 500 meters long, and at the same time they carried out demining......

Two kilometers away, the devil's every move did not escape the eyes of Wang Ping and Li Wen.

In order to cooperate with the engineer company to prepare a big gift for the devil, the troops separated from the assault battalion and the guard battalion all passed, and Wang Ping was now left with the direct team and reconnaissance platoon, with a total strength of less than 60 people.

"Regiment commander, the little devil is too cautious, according to this kind of demining at that time, the shells buried by the engineer company will definitely be discovered by them in advance!"

"Then get rid of these demining sappers...... Wang Ping said that there was no way out.

There are little devil planes cruising overhead, and there are a large number of devil cavalry patrolling and guarding around, if you rush to attack, if one is not good, the attacking troops will not be able to come back.

Although he had only been in contact with these Japanese soldiers for one day, Wang Ping had already secretly warned himself in his heart to try to avoid fighting with devils during the day, even sneak attacks and guerrilla warfare......

Thinking of this, Wang Ping directly showed a regretful expression on his face.

"It was too impulsive last night...... I knew that it would be like this today, and I would rather not destroy those little devils last night than expose the engineer company~"

"The devil is too cautious, this is simply against our engineer company, to prevent our engineer company!"

"We must find a way to get rid of these demining sappers, even if they pay some losses......"
