Chapter 1352: What Good News Is This (First Update!) )

The special high class is responsible for the rank of major general.

Usually when I go below, those lieutenant generals and division commanders are submissive to themselves, and they are deeply afraid of offending themselves.

But at this moment, he was like a child who had done something wrong, keeping his head down, letting Okamura Ninji's foaming star spray on him, and he didn't dare to move.

"Tell me the truth, has the intelligence department figured out how big the Eighth Route Army is!" After scolding, Okamura Ninji forcibly suppressed his anger, took a deep breath and stared at his subordinates and asked.

The special high class lowered his head and hesitated for a long time before replying: "Your Excellency Commander, according to intelligence, the total number of main forces in the base areas of the Eighth Route Army in North China must exceed 50,000!" ”

"In addition to the main forces, at least half a million local troops and guerrillas have been formed in these base areas!"

"As long as the battlefield requires it, these troops can become the main force at any time!"

"As for their artillery units, there is not much difference from their presentation on the parade ground!"

"The larger base area uses the captured mountain artillery of the imperial army to form an independent mountain artillery battalion, a field artillery battalion, and even a mountain artillery regiment!"

"The smaller base areas have also formed independent mountain artillery companies, field artillery companies, and at least a mortar company!"

"The best equipment is the Eighth Route Army in the southwest of Jin and the Eighth Route Army in Jinchaji!"

"In particular, the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army, which is active in the southwest of Shanxi, has long exceeded one regiment, and many units of the Chinese army are not as good as one regiment of them!"

"In the new regiment, mortars, infantry artillery, mountain artillery have already massively equipped the troops! There are even several separate field artillery battalions, a heavy artillery battalion! ”

"In addition to equipping the Jinchaji base area with a lot of captured imperial artillery, their own arsenal has also produced a lot of large-caliber mortars and small-caliber mortars to equip the troops!"

"The standard for a 120 mm caliber medium mortar battery per brigade has been reached."

"This kind of mortar is very powerful, don't blow up a large area on the field battlefield!"

"Because of the large amount of charge, it also has a great destructive effect on the fortifications!"

"As long as the target is hit, except for the permanent fortifications made of reinforced concrete, all other fortifications can be destroyed directly!"

Okamura Ninji kept a calm face the whole time, and finally couldn't help but scold.

"Enough!"

"Since this morning, all I have heard in my ears is bad news~ Isn't there no good news?"

"If this situation continues to develop, we will directly cede North China to the Eighth Route Army, what else is there to fight!"

"Losing a large number of imperial soldiers and soldiers, and in the end nothing is not counted, but the enemy is getting stronger and stronger!"

The chief of staff, who had not spoken, said: "Your Excellency, there is good news here! ”

"The imperial army in the direction of Taiyuan to reinforce Shijiazhuang has successfully passed through Yangquan!"

"The Eighth Route Army attacking Yangquan was defeated by the Imperial Army, and it has been routed on all fronts, and Yangquan has returned to the hands of the Imperial Army!"

"The only regret is that a large number of materials hoarded by the imperial army in Yangquan were robbed by the Eighth Route Army, and in the end, those that were not robbed were also burned to ashes by them!"

"The Shijiazhuang garrison has just sent a piece of good news!"

"The Eighth Route Army, which was attacking them, has stopped!"

"They must have received the news that our reinforcements were about to arrive in Shijiazhuang, and they were afraid that they would be surrounded by our reinforcements, and they were ready to slip away when they saw that the situation was not good!"

Okamura Ninji's face finally looked a lot better, and he stared at the chief of staff and continued to ask.

"How many sweeping troops are attacking the base area of the Eighth Route Army?"

"Have they withdrawn safely, if they withdraw, they will kill directly to Shijiazhuang, and block all the roads around Shijiazhuang where the Eighth Route Army can retreat!"

"I want to annihilate those Eighth Route Army!"

"They demonstrated their strength through exercises, demonstrating to us. Then we will take out their troops outside Shijiazhuang and respond to them with a great victory! ”

The smile on the chief of staff's face disappeared all at once.

Okamura Ninji chuckled in his heart, and a very bad premonition appeared in his mind.

After hesitating for a long time, the chief of staff replied: "There are a total of four encirclement and suppression troops, all of which are still in the base area of the Eighth Route Army and have not come out!" ”

"The Eighth Route Army is too cunning, not to mention sending troops to block and harass the imperial army along the way, but also destroying all the necessary routes for the imperial army to retreat, and laying a large number of mines!"

"Even if the four-way encirclement and suppression troops are reinforced by aviation, they only retreat ten kilometers a day~"

"Also, the Eighth Route Army seems to be planning to eat our four-way encirclement and suppression troops~"

"It's as if the troops can't finish fighting, and they keep rushing towards our encirclement and suppression troops!"

"One of the encirclement troops has been sharply reduced from one brigade to two infantry brigades!"

"The losses of the other three-way sweeping troops are also very large, and there must be more than half of the casualties!"

Okamura Ninji is on fire, but this time the target of the fire is not the person in charge of the special high school, but the chief of staff.

staring at the chief of staff, he scolded: "Baga! That's good news! ”

"You tell me, how many Eighth Route Army have been wiped out by the Imperial Army in this battle so far!"

The chief of staff hesitated and replied: "The reinforcements killed plus the sweep troops killed after entering their base area, all add up to tens of thousands of Eighth Route Army, there must be one!"

Okamura continued to scold: "Then you tell me, how many troops the Imperial Army has lost in total!" ”

"According to the casualties and battle reports reported to the headquarters by various departments, the casualties of the imperial army have exceeded 10,000!" The chief of staff replied.

As soon as the words came out, he was stunned.

The Imperial Army lost more troops than the Eighth Route Army.

You must know that in North China, excluding the Imperial Allied Army, the total strength of the Imperial Army is less than half of the Eighth Route Army, and even if there is a one-to-one casualty ratio on the battlefield, the entire North China Front Army is not enough for the Eighth Route Army to consume.

In front of him, the casualties of the imperial army were actually more than those of the Eighth Route Army, and it was obvious that it could not be said to be a victory.

Not only is it not a victory, but it is a complete defeat!

The chief of staff stood there with an embarrassed expression, originally thinking of easing Okamura Ninji's anger.

Unexpectedly, not only did it not play a relieving role, but it made his anger even stronger~

"Pass my orders!" After a long time, Okamura Ninji suddenly ordered.

"The reinforcements that have passed through Yangquan are marching to Shijiazhuang in a hurry, and even if the Eighth Route Army attacking Shijiazhuang can't be killed, I will leave half of it!"

"Chief of Staff, you go and give orders, you can't complete the task, military law will be carried out!"

Looking at the murderous Okamura Ninji in front of him, the chief of staff didn't dare to say a word, and rushed out directly.
