"Lao Gao, little devil, there is a conspiracy." Shen Quan followed Gao Jianwu, and after a little thought, he knew that it was wrong to successfully surround Yuji Watanabe.

"Yuji Watanabe called for reinforcements, this is to drag our main force here." Gao Jianwu simply said the result, and the specific information could not be explained, so he went straight to the result.

"Reinforcements? How many reinforcements does the devil have nearby to send? "Shen Quan has been leading the team, and he hasn't had time to communicate with Gao Jianwu about this, so it's a bit strange.

"Of course there is, Lao Shen, you forgot that there is a large group of little devils in Shicheng who have not moved." Gao Jianwu said.

"Shicheng, that's another defense area for the little devils, and they will also follow Yuji Watanabe?" Shen Quan was surprised, Shen Quan knew how difficult this kind of cross-defense joint combat operation was.

Not to mention the notoriously difficult to coordinate the national army, even if it is a cross-regimental defense area operation within the Eighth Road, unless it is an old comrade-in-arms like Li Yunlong, Ding Wei and Kong Jie who used to be together, everyone knows the roots, and it is relatively easy to communicate.

However, even so, if there are more troops used, it must be reported to the brigade headquarters or even the division headquarters for approval before it can be put into the main force to coordinate operations.

"Judging from the current indications, the little devil must have sent a large number of reinforcements, or there is no way to explain Yuji Watanabe's actions." Gao Jianwu could only talk to Shenquan to this extent.

Knowing the results and working backwards from the results, there is nothing wrong with this logic.

After listening to this, Shen Quan thought about it for a while, and indeed Gao Jianwu's inference was fine, and Yuji Watanabe, a fish that slipped through the net, should have fled desperately a long time ago according to common sense.

This kind of stay and let the independent group surround it, if there is no purpose, it is really a bit of a little devil.

"In that case, we're going to have to do it quickly." Shen Quan said.

"Yes, the sooner we get rid of Yuji Watanabe, the better our situation will be, from the current situation, we only have three regiments: the Independent Regiment, the New First Regiment, and the New Second Regiment, if Ishijo sends reinforcements, it will be at least at the wing level, it is a little devil field division, and the firepower and elite are only stronger than Yuji Watanabe's Watanabe Task Force!"

"If reinforcements arrive and the Watanabe Task Force hasn't been wiped out, we will be seriously underwhelmed to resist the little devil reinforcements." Gao Jianwu said solemnly.

"Zhao Jiayu has been beaten into a scorched earth, and the reinforcements of the little devil brigade have arrived, and Zhao Jiayu has no danger to defend. We had no choice but to retreat, and this undermined the gains we had made at the sacrifices we had made earlier. Shen Quan can also see the meaning of keeping Zhao Jiayu, but if it really comes to the point where it is impossible to do anything, he can not only give up.

"We will lead the team to break through the defense line of the little devils as soon as possible and eliminate them." Gao Jianwu said decisively.

Time is not on their side now, and every second must be taken to address the enemy.

Almost every Yuji Taniguchi Watanabe left behind a squad-level defense, with light and heavy machine guns and grenadiers, relying on the mountainous terrain to be condescending, and it was very difficult for Gao Jianfu to attack head-on.

This is also one of the reasons why Yuji Watanabe chose this place, easy to defend and difficult to attack!

Zhang Dabiao first found the clues of Yuji Watanabe and led the team to block several valley passes, but if he wanted to break through the little devil's guard force in the valley, even if Gao Jianwu strengthened the mortar team to Zhang Dabiao, using grenadiers, mortars and machine guns to form an attack force.

But limited to the terrain, there are really a lot of difficulties for the attacking side, and it is difficult for mortars to hit the little devils behind the stone bunkers on the hillside.

A small charge could not break through the crossfire formed by 1 heavy machine gun and 3 light machine guns of the little devils.

A large group of people and horses could not spread at all due to the narrow terrain.

This is uncomfortable, Zhang Dabiao threw several hats to organize an attack, and hundreds of casualties did not break through the defense line of the little devil!

Until Gao Jianwu and the others arrived, the two sides were still deadlocked there.

After Gao Jianwu entered the attack, he observed for a while and knew what to expect.

"Molotov cocktails on mortars!" Gao Jianwu coldly ordered the artillery group beside him.

The little devil hid behind the rocks, and there were quite a few dry weeds and small shrubs next to the stones.

It is difficult to inflict large damage in the middle of bare stones by bombing with shells, but with incendiary bombs...... The results are immediate!

In the blazing fire and smoke on the lit hillside, the little devils were howling, igniting the weeds and shrubs on the hillside, and it was much easier to clean up the little devils, which was completely different from the original charge and attack organized by Zhang Dabiao.

Of course, this is also the lack of incendiary bombs in the artillery group supporting Zhang Dabiao, this special artillery shell, very few captures, only Gao Jianwu opened and hung some into it to have a little inventory, but the number is not much, about one-tenth of the grenade.

I didn't think it would come in handy today.

"Your Excellency Da Zuo, it's terrible!" Taro Kawamoto, who was hidden in the valley, couldn't help but be shocked when he saw a valley lit with smoke.

Yuji Watanabe was also pale, they calculated a lot, including the terrain, the remaining forces of the other side and their own side, the comparison of firepower, and the resolution of the opponent's artillery advantage, basically everything was taken into account, but they didn't expect the other party to attack with fire!

You must know that in this way, in such a dry winter, it is difficult to burn all this valley to the ground.

But this is not the 21st century in which Gao Jianwu lives, Gao Jianwu has not considered to be an environmental pioneer at all, and the little devils who have not been killed have been killed, so what if the green mountains and green waters are left?

Here, you can do whatever you can to kill the little devil quickly!

As soon as Gao Jianwu's big killing move comes out, there will be no space for the little devil to delay time here with the help of the terrain.

"Kawamoto-kun, we must gather and turn in again." Yuji Watanabe didn't have to wait long to make a decision.

In the process of escaping, Taro Kawamoto has already shown the ability to fight in the mountains, and he is indeed better than the three captains of Horiuchi, Ishii Mori and Fujino.

Even if the suspicious soldiers were about to get rid of Zhang Dabiao's pursuit, if it weren't for the unwillingness of Yuji Watanabe, he would have to continue to come to the center to blossom and save the defeat, Taro Kawamoto would have taken this remnant of the army to get rid of the pursuers on the side of the independent regiment.

"Your Excellency Dazuo, there's no way we're all gathered and transferred." Taro Kawamoto shook his head and disputed Yuji Watanabe's order.

"Now only by gathering the people around you can quickly break away and climb over the mountain peak to escape."

Taro Kawamoto's words made Yuji Watanabe's face darken. Struggling to the present, the situation is not the worst, only worse.

Originally, he could have escaped with more than a thousand remnants of the defeated army, but now he can't even do this.

If there is a chance to choose again, Yuji Watanabe will definitely not choose to sweep Zhao Jiayu.

It is better to choose a battlefield and be able to fight a fair battle with the independent regiment.

Now this battle is a bit unclear, and of course Yuji Watanabe will not reflect on his fault of underestimating the enemy. Do you beat or abandon most of the little devils and continue to run away?

Yuji Watanabe's face was cloudy, but he quickly relented.

"Kawamoto-kun, you should take the radio and these people around you to stand out," Yuji Watanabe said after a long sigh, "You are a talent of the Empire, be sure to report the true situation of this battle to His Excellency the Brigade Commander, and ask His Excellency Kawada to be careful of the Independent Regiment, this is an out-and-out strong force on the Tsuchihachi Road, and if you are not ready to sweep with the momentum of thunder, do not easily send troops below the wing to sweep." ”

Hearing that Yuji Watanabe was like explaining what was going on, Taro Kawamoto was a little anxious, and according to the task given to him by the brigade commander, he took Yuji Watanabe back well.

"Your Excellency Dazuo, please cheer up." Taro Kawamoto said anxiously, "Your Excellency Dazuo is the commander personally awarded by the Empire, and His Excellency the Brigade Commander once ordered that no matter what, he must not be lost in the conquest of the Eighth Road. The humble position will definitely make a bloody way for His Excellency Da Zuo. ”

Yuji Watanabe was thinking about his own way out, and Major General Mitsuo Kawada certainly took this into account, and in his 9th Brigade, he could not afford the huge loss of a large left and a wing being taken at the same time.

So in a private order to Taro Kawamoto, in case the situation is uncontrollable, Taro Kawamoto will take Yuji Watanabe and go first!

Now is the time not to do it.

Taro Kawamoto had to move out of the brigade commander's order, "I'm sorry, Your Excellency Ozuo, the lowly general has to be transferred in with you." ”

Taro Kawamoto whistled with his fingers, and soon, more than 50 people came out of the periphery, carrying the radio on their backs and waiting for orders with a few crooked machine guns!

Obviously, Taro Kawamoto was secretly prepared.

Yuji Watanabe himself did not have the determination to die resolutely, and when he saw the steps, he didn't speak, so he followed Taro Kawamoto and his party to start breaking through first!
