Chapter 225: I'll be honest with you
It was a really torturous hour.
I don't know what happened to the 2nd Core Detachment?
"Sakamoto-kun." Yoshio Shinozuka said with a frown.
"Is there still no news from the 2nd Core Detachment?"
"Hello." Takashi Sakamoto, the head of the communications section, said, "No." ”
"Yaga." Yoshio Shinozuka said angrily, "How long has it been since their last communication?" ”
Ryuichi Sakamoto raised his wrist and looked at his watch and said: "The last communication of the 2nd Core Detachment was when they had just arrived at Zhao's homeland, when the time was 0:00 in the morning, and now it is 1:35 in the morning, and the time has passed an hour and a half and a half and 5 minutes. ”
"Nani, an hour and a half?"
Yoshio Shinozuka's brows furrowed more and more: "Only one telegram was sent in an hour and a half? ”
"Yes." Sakamoto Takashi said, "Only when he first arrived near the stronghold of Zhaojiayuan, he sent a telegram to confirm the news of the collective jade fragmentation of the 3rd Rapid Detachment to the headquarters, and reported that there was indeed the main force of the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side, and there were at least three regiments or more, as well as a large number of light and heavy machine guns and a small number of mortars. ”
Yoshio Shinozuka said: "This idiot is still as arrogant as ever." ”
Speaking of this, he said with a dark face: "If he refuses to send a telegram, then send him a telegram!" ”
As soon as the words fell, a communication soldier hurriedly walked out and reported suddenly: "Your Excellency Commander, the 2nd Core Detachment has sent an urgent telegram!" ”
Finally a telegram?
Yoshio Shinozuka perked up and shouted, "Read! ”
"Hello!" The signal soldier slammed his head, and then unfolded the telegram and read.
"The headquarters of the 1st Army and the division headquarters, as soon as our detachment arrived near the stronghold of Zhaojiayuan, it was violently shelled by the Eighth Route Army, and the artillery team was destroyed at the first time, and many of the wing commanders were ......."
Seeing that the communications staff officer no longer read down, Yoshio Shinozuka asked, "What about below?" ”
"There's no more down there." The chief of communications staff paused, "It's only half a telegram." ”
"Nani?" Yoshio Shinozuka was stunned and said, "There's no more below, just this half of the telegram?" ”
"Baga, something must have happened." Sakamoto Takaichi said with a dark face, "Otherwise, it would never be like this." ”
"Yes, the telegram is obviously not finished." Shibata Shibuya said, "Most of the time there was an accident in the process of sending the telegram. ”
Yoshio Shinozuka instantly felt a little dry in his mouth.
The communications team is staying with many wings.
If something happens to the communications team, doesn't that mean that the wing headquarters has also had an accident?
The last sentence of the message is how many have not been done, what has happened? Have you already given your life for the Empire?
Could it be that the 2nd Core Detachment has followed in the footsteps of the 3rd Rapid Detachment and has been completely annihilated by the Eighth Route Army? Although this possibility is very small, it cannot be completely ruled out.
What if? What if it has really been wiped out?
Thinking of this, Yoshio Shinozuka's heart sank.
If the 2nd Core Detachment has really been completely annihilated, it means that the main force of the Eighth Route Army of the Taihang Military Region will be able to move south along the highway passing through Yangquan and Liaoxian without hindrance, because after the 3rd Rapid Strike Detachment and the 2nd Core Detachment were completely annihilated, there were only a small number of defenders left along the roads of Yangquan, Pingding, and Liaoxian.
With this defender alone, it was impossible to stop the main force of the Eighth Route Army moving south along the road.
Even, the defenders of the county town along the way had to pray that the Eighth Route Army would not attack the county seat.
And if the main force of the Eighth Route Army of the Taihang Military Region is allowed to run away, then this sweep will become meaningless, even if the bandit area north of Zhengtai Road is killed into a blank field, what is the use?
No, the main force of the Eighth Route Army of the Taihang Military Region must not be allowed to run away!
Thinking of this, Yoshio Shinozuka quickly walked to the edge of the sand table, and his eyes began to wander over the sand table.
Suddenly, Yoshio Shinozuka's gaze fell on a certain node on the sand table, and he said in a deep voice: "Sakamoto-kun, if the final detachment is rerouted to Sangzhang, how long will it take?" ”
Sangzhang Bridge is the only way to go south to Liao County.
"Mulberry palm?" Ryuichi Sakamoto asked, "Aren't you going to the Zhaojiayuan stronghold?" ”
"Yaga." Yoshio Shinozuka said angrily, "Answer my question, right away!" ”
Takuichi Sakamoto was startled, and quickly took a ruler to measure it on the sand table.
After a while, Ryuichi Sakamoto replied, "It will take about forty minutes to get to Sangsho." ”
"Forty minutes?" Shinozuka Yoshio's expression sank, and he said, "What about going south from Zhaojiayuan to Sangzhang?" ”
At this time, Ryuichi Sakamoto understood what Yoshio Shinozuka meant, and immediately took a ruler to measure it, and then said: "It takes almost forty minutes to go south from Zhaojiayuan to Sangzhang. ”
"Your Excellency Commander is worried that the main force of the Eighth Route Army will flee south?"
"If this is the case, we must order the final detachment to seize the Sangzhang Bridge immediately."
"As long as the Sangzhang Bridge is held, the main force of the Eighth Route Army in the Taihang Bandit Area will not be able to escape from the south of the road, and if you take the small road, not only will the speed be greatly delayed, but also the heavy equipment must be abandoned."
Yoshio Shinozuka sighed: "But I'm afraid that the Eighth Route Army will seize the Sangzhang Bridge first." ”
Ryuichi Sakamoto said, "Whether it's time or not, let's take the Sansho Bridge." ”
"Hmm." Yoshio Shinozuka nodded vigorously, and said, "Call immediately and the final detachment will be rerouted to take the Sangsho Bridge!" And then leave an infantry brigade to hold the bridge! ”
"Hello!" A communications staff officer walked away.
At this time, Kosuke Chida, who was guarding in front of the radio station, suddenly stood up again.
"Your Excellency, Commander!" Kosuke Chida paused, "That man, I asked you to call again." ”
When Yoshio Shinozuka heard this, his heart suddenly moved slightly, maybe he could drag the main force of the Eighth Route Army through the prince? Even if it only lasts a quarter of an hour, it's good.
The staff officers present were a little worried.
They feared that His Excellency the Commander would suffer again.
Ryuichi Sakamoto said, "Your Excellency, Commander, I suggest you ignore him. ”
"We've suffered enough from him, and talking to him again will only make more and bigger losses."
Shibata Shibuya said, "Yes, I have never heard of a direct conversation between the commanders of opposing sides over the radio. ”
Ryuichi Sakamoto said again: "Obviously, the No. 2 commander of the Eighth Route Army is tactically deceiving us, most of the situations he said may be true, but in fact, there must be false elements, what I am most afraid of is this kind of nine falsehoods and one truth, and it is likely to be a big thing at a critical moment!" ”
"That was the case with the 1401 military column last time."
Shibata Shinichi said, "So please be cautious, Commander! ”
Yoshio Shinozuka said: "Sakamoto-kun, Shibata-kun, you are afraid of the enemy, this is cowardice!" ”
"Nani?" Ryuichi Sakamoto and Shibata Shin looked at each other, "Your Excellency, Commander, why are we afraid of the enemy and cowardly?" ”
Yoshio Shinozuka said: "Don't you think that this radio station connecting the headquarters of my 1st Army and the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army is also a battlefield? ”
"The soldiers of the Imperial Army are fighting to the death with the Eighth Route Army on the battlefield."
"As a commander, I also have to compete with the commander of the Eighth Route Army on the radio."
"You only know that the commander of the Eighth Route Army may carry out tactical deception against us, don't you know that we can also carry out tactical deception against the Eighth Route Army in turn?"
"What's more, there are more important benefits than tactical deception."
One advantage is to use the prince to hold back the footsteps of the Eighth Route Army.
In addition to this benefit, there is another, more important hidden benefit.
Thinking of this, Yoshio Shinozuka turned his gaze to Takuya Mizuhara, who was standing in the corner.
"Your Excellency, Commander." Takuya Mizuhara hurriedly said, "The technical class is being debugged, and it can be debugged within two days." ”
"Yo Si." Yoshio Shinozuka nodded happily.
"So, if we take the initiative to cut off communications,"
"Doesn't it seem that we are afraid of the Eighth Route Army?"
"Isn't this just fear of the enemy, isn't it just cowardice?"
Ryuichi Sakamoto and Shibata Shibata were speechless.
At that moment, Yoshio Shinozuka strode to the radio station.
Yoshio Shinozuka grabbed the receiver microphone: "Maxi Maxi, I'm Yoshio Shinozuka." ”
A familiar voice immediately came from the other side, and said, "Shinozuka-kun, didn't I tell you to ask your reinforcements not to come over again, why don't you listen?" ”
The hammer was realized, and Yoshio Shinozuka sighed in his heart.
Just now, he still had a trace of luck in his heart.
But now, the last fluke psychology has also disappeared.
It seems that the 2nd Core Detachment has indeed been completely annihilated.
The prince said again: "Why bother? Another detachment came in. ”
"Lord Wang, do you mean that many of the unfinished detachments have been completely wiped out?"
Yoshio Shinozuka is strong and calm, but his throat is still dry unconsciously.
This is a detachment, with more than 2,000 imperial soldiers? Was it really annihilated by the Eighth Route Army?
Yoshio Shinozuka really can't imagine how the Eighth Route Army did it? It's just unbelievable.
"That's right, what many detachments have been wiped out by us." Wang Ye smiled and said, "Shinozuka-kun, we've known each other for so long, when did I lie to you?" ”
Hearing this, Yoshio Shinozuka only felt his temples jump suddenly.
When have you ever lied to me? Just lied to me a month ago, okay?
You're playing tactical tricks on me almost every conversation, okay?
Do you really think that our people from the Shinozuka family are pigs, and you can't see this?
Hey, no, the people of our Shinozuka family are not pigs in the first place, and the mound is a high grave, not a pigsty!
Thinking of this, Yoshio Shinozuka felt his blood surging up again, this guy is really shameless, he has never seen a more brazen person than this when he opens his eyes and talks nonsense.
found that Yoshio Shinozuka was silent for a long time,
The prince asked again: "Maxi Maxi, are you still there, Shinozuka-kun?" ”
"I'm here!" Yoshio Shinozuka took a deep breath, trying his best to suppress the anxiety in his heart.
But it can't be suppressed at all, because the current situation is really bad, once the 2nd core detachment is annihilated, it means that the Eighth Route Army can go south along the Yangliao Highway without hindrance.
In the end, even if the detachment turned around and went to the Sangzhang Bridge to intercept it, I am afraid that it will be too late.
Because when the final detachment rushed to the Sangzhang Bridge, the Eighth Route Army had already crossed the bridge.
No, we must not let the main force of the Eighth Route Army in the Taihang bandit area run away like this, otherwise, this sweep at such a great cost will become meaningless.
However, you can't just tell the prince that you don't run.
However, Yoshio Shinozuka, the old devil, still has something.
At this critical juncture, he suddenly calmed down.
At this time, you can't be in a hurry, the more anxious you are, the easier it is to make mistakes, and you must be calm.
Yoshio Shinozuka said, "Can you tell me how you did it?" ”
The prince said: "Are you asking how to completely annihilate your multi-unit detachment?" ”
"Yes." Yoshio Shinozuka said, "There are more than 2,000 people in the detachment, and there is an artillery brigade, I really can't think of how you can wipe them all out in an hour?" ”
The prince was silent for a moment, and then asked rhetorically, "Do you want to hear the truth, Shinozuka-kun?" ”
"Of course." Yoshio Shinozuka said in a deep voice, "If you are willing to say it, I will definitely listen to it." ”
Wang Ye said: "I must be willing to say it, but I'm afraid that you won't believe it after I say it, and then you will make a bigger mistake, so it won't be beautiful." ”
"I believe it." Yoshio Shinozuka said in a deep voice, "I must believe it this time." ”
"Okay, who made us honest people, then I'll tell you the truth."
The prince said: "Shinozuka-kun, you Japanese are too arrogant, you don't take us seriously at all, this big night's rapid march, you don't even scout carefully, just care about rushing forward." ”
"As a result, I stepped into our preset chain of minefields."
"The previous fast brigade, as well as the current multiple detachments, were all killed by us in this way, it was so easy, it was effortless."
"A chain of minefields?" Yoshio Shinozuka said, "Impossible, right? ”
"Look, I said you wouldn't believe it." The prince said, "You really still don't believe it." ”
Yoshio Shinozuka ignored the prince and analyzed to himself: "The battlefields of these two battles are within the blockade ditch, and you have no chance to plant mines in advance. ”
"Hurriedly bury a few or dozens of mines, I believe."
"However, if you want to say that you can plant a large number of mines and form a chain of mines, I don't believe it, you simply don't have enough time, and I'm afraid you don't have so many mines."
"Lord Wang, you're not telling the truth! You're lying! ”
Yoshio Shinozuka's judgment should be said to be very accurate.
When the independent regiment ambushed the rapid detachment of the Japanese army, it only had time to lay dozens of mines, and it was necessary to pinch the head and remove the tail, and no matter how many mines there were, there would be no time to bury them, and there would not be so many mines.
The new 1st Regiment, the 2nd New Regiment and the 772nd Regiment were also mined.
I wanted to repeat the old trick to deal with many detachments, but I was recognized.
Because there is an engineer brigade under the command of the sequence of many detachments.
The mines that the Eighth Route Army had worked so hard to lay were cleared before they could play their role, but many of the detachments did not mention the matter in the telegram.
After a pause, Yoshio Shinozuka said again: "Lord Wang, you rely on artillery, right?" ”
Yoshio Shinozuka actually just wanted to deceive the prince, because he really didn't think that artillery could play much of a role at night, not to mention how large the Eighth Route Army could be? It was only because the last half of the telegram from the detachment mentioned that it had been shelled, that Yoshio Shinozuka thought of using this to deceive the prince.
What if the truth can be deceived from the prince's mouth? That's earned.
And said: "I really didn't expect that your artillery literacy would be so high!" Even at night, the hit rate is so high! We were able to find our artillery positions and infantry assembly sites accurately! ”
Yoshio Shinozuka was just talking casually, but when he said this, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Oh, I see!" Yoshio Shinozuka shouted, "Lord Wang, you are guiding the artillery!" Your artillery observation posts are using radio stations to accurately guide the artillery, right? ”
"It's worthy of Shinozuka-kun, it's really smart, you can guess it."
There was a snapping sound on the other side of the radio, as if the prince was applauding.
The prince said again: "But unfortunately, it's useless to guess, Shinozuka-kun, if I don't guess wrong, the defense from Yangquan to Liao County is already empty, right?" ”
"Then we won't play with you, we're going south."
"Do you hear the sound of horses' hooves? We're heading south along the road. ”
Yoshio Shinozuka listened attentively, and sure enough, he heard the sound of horses' hooves.
Suddenly, Yoshio Shinozuka became anxious again and had to stop the Eighth Route Army.
"Be calm, be calm, be calm at this time!" Yoshio Shinozuka said silently in his heart.
After a moment of silence, Yoshio Shinozuka said again: "Lord, since you are so open and honest, then today, I will also tell you the truth openly." ”
"Oh, really?"
Wang Ye smiled and asked, "I don't know what you want to tell me?" ”
Yoshio Shinozuka said: "Didn't you advise me not to send a fast detachment and a number of non-detachments to Zhaojiayuan?" Then I also advise you now, don't go south to Yangquan and Liaoxian. ”
The prince smiled and asked, "Why?" Why can't you go south? ”
Yoshio Shinozuka said, "Because we have laid an ambush in Sangzhang. ”
The prince laughed and said, "Shinozuka-kun, do you think I will believe it?" ”
"Look." Yoshio Shinozuka said, "To be honest, no one believes it. ”
The prince on the other side was suffocated, this sentence was given to Yoshio Shinozuka, but now it was returned by Yoshio Shinozuka intact, and Yoshio Shinozuka finally learned to give back to him in his own way.
After a long time, the prince said again: "Shinozuka-kun, we are not far from Sangzhang, and it will only take half an hour to send troops to reconnoitre, and I will soon know if there are ambushes there." ”
"If you don't believe it, just send troops to reconnoitre."
Yoshio Shinozuka was ecstatic when he heard this, half an hour is enough!
With this half an hour, in the end, the detachment will be able to occupy the Sangzhang Bridge first!
"Okay, we'll see you in half an hour." After the prince finished speaking, he cut off the communication.
Yoshio Shinozuka interrupted the communication, and then waved his fist vigorously, I really didn't expect that the situation would turn around at the last moment! Now, it's time for the prince to learn how powerful Yoshio Shinozuka is.
Now, as long as the 1st and 3rd core detachments continue to penetrate directly into the Zhaojiayuan stronghold,
You can join the final detachment to complete the encirclement of the main force of the Eighth Route Army.
