"What, you actually suggested that our Sixth Division take a detour?"

Furious, Gu Shoufu looked at the staff officers surrounding him in disbelief, and his fist slammed into the table on the map.

The staff officers who proposed the construction around them were all straight, and they were even ready to be slapped in the face.

But they couldn't go against their conscience and send the soldiers of the Sixth Division to the mouth of the murderous and numb "Four Elements Demon King".

Like a magic spell, as long as the soldiers heard the name of the "Four Elements Demon King", they would tremble in fear.

As junior officers, they are quite serious about the rumors that have come over.

Although they were sure in their hearts that the Sixth Division was stronger than the Marine Corps, and it was also stronger than the garrison division like the Heavy Ento Brigade, that bastard's "Four Elements Demon King", he was killing people too fast.

In four days, as many as 20,000 soldiers were swallowed up by the four lines of warehouses. Eighty percent of the soldiers who escaped from their wounds lost their limbs.

In the queue outside the building of the Ministry of Industry in the concession area, it was a whole brigade of Japanese Army soldiers. They stood in line and were slaughtered in less than a minute by five machine guns of that kind that fired extremely fast.

Legend has it that his men brutally cut off the heads of every soldier killed by a machine gun.

Beheading is also a treatment that soldiers, including most officers, are unwilling to enjoy, because without a head and soul, they cannot go back to Japan, and they will only become lonely ghosts.

Perhaps the Japanese soldiers were not afraid of dying in battle, but everyone was afraid that they would not be able to return to their hometowns.

Now that terrible "Four Elements Demon King" occupies the mountain in front, although the mountain is not high, at most it is a hill of several hundred meters, but it is a pity that it is in the hands of that terrible man.

That is an insurmountable natural danger.

God knows what that terrible man would have prepared to defend that mountain.

"Get out for now."

The chief of staff commanded softly, and one by one, the staff officers who straightened up bent down and saluted together and exited the war room one by one, leaving only Gu Shoufu and his chief of staff.

Looking at Gu Shoufu, whose face was pale, the chief of staff turned around and closed the door of the war room first. After turning around, he picked up the hot water bottle and filled Gu Shoufu's teacup with hot water, and gently put it in his hand.

"Sir, you ...... Or deflat, sit down, sit down first. ”

"Whew"

Gu Shoufu let out a long breath, and finally spit out the suffocation in his chest, and then he suppressed his voice and said,

"What seven lives to serve the country, it's all just to talk about. Even if we encounter a strong enemy, do we have to retreat, this ...... This group of cowards, a four-element demon can scare them so badly. ”

The chief of staff, who was standing aside, pondered, quietly organizing his words. Of course, he didn't want the Sixth Division to attack the hill in front of him, because he knew that the Sixth Division was majestic at the moment, but ......

You must know that when the "Four Elements Demon" was guarding the Four Elements Warehouse, the Japanese army at that time had just won the battle on the Songhu battlefield, and the soldiers were so high that they were almost reckless.

The chief of staff pursed his lips and said in a calm voice beside Gu Shoufu,

"General, you know that as soldiers, the samurai of the Great Japanese Empire are full of reverence for brave soldiers. So after the end of the Shikhang warehouse, which became famous in the newspapers, I paid a visit to His Excellency Major General Shigeto. ”

The words of the chief of staff touched Tani Toshio, although he did not think much of Major General Shigedo Daiaki, who led a brigade and regiment, did not capture the Sixing warehouse.

But the chief of staff's words still attracted all his attention, at least before attacking the mountain in front of him, he was willing to know more about the "Four Elements Demon" in order to find a way to defeat him.

"Oh, I don't know yet...... So what does he say about that...... The German. ”

Despite the arrogance of the Japanese Army in East Asia, as a professional soldier, Tani Shofu knew how strong the German army was. Although he did not believe in the German soldiers, who had a stronger fighting spirit than the Japanese soldiers, he knew that the equipment of the German army could be said to be much stronger than that of the Japanese army.

In addition, there is no shame in admitting that a German is stronger than the Japanese Army, at least as far as Tani is concerned.

"General Shigedo told me that he was a very, very good German soldier. Even the old-fashioned officers in the German army said that he would be the youngest general in the German army, and there were other exaggerated compliments......"

Gu Shoufu was detoured by the staff officers, and his anger that was almost bursting his veins was temporarily suspended, and he asked,

"Is the information reliable?"

"General, it was his student Lieutenant Higashikawa Yohei who said it, General, you drink tea, listen to me tell you slowly."

As he spoke, the chief of staff pushed the cup full of hot tea towards Gu Shoufu, who picked up the cup and took a sip of hot tea after repeated deliberations by the chief of staff.

The bitter and then sweet tea fell down his throat, making his slumped breath smoother.

"General, the news is reliable. Lieutenant Higashikawa was a naval officer who went to the German sniper school, but did not establish a sniper team as he had hoped after returning, and then when the Marines were wounded in the Sihang warehouse, he asked General Shigedo for permission to establish the Higashikawa sniper unit. ”

Thinking of the horizontal jump of the unaspiring naval officer, although Gu Shoufu did not feel very comfortable, he still listened carefully to the narration of the chief of staff.

According to Lieutenant Higashikawa, his principal was the commander of the German Paratrooper Rangers and had led paratroopers into Spain for covert operations before the Spanish Civil War began. And the Headmaster is very good at making powerful weapons on the spot with what he can find on the battlefield......"

Hearing this, Gu Shoufu nodded and said,

"I've heard, the two weapons of the cripple maker and the mad one-header, are they ......?"

The chief of staff nodded, and introduced the two home-made weapons to the best of his knowledge,

"Yes general, the former specializes in striking skirmishers of the infantry, and now there is nothing to deal with. The latter can actually shoot the power of a 200-millimeter heavy cannon, it is really hard to imagine that it was made out of emergency with things common on the battlefield. ”

The Chief of Staff's words caused Tani to ponder, and seeing his appearance, the Chief of Staff knew that maybe his words had an effect. So he shut his mouth and quietly waited for Gu Shoufu's decision.

"Hmph, even the Four Elements Demon King can't stop our attack......"

These words made the chief of staff think about how he could build a field hospital to treat the large number of wounded soldiers who were about to arrive. After all, there are now six hundred people squeezed in, and then ......

"He can guard a hill with the Four Elements Demon King, and I don't believe that the nearby hills are all guarded by his troops. You see, as long as we break through the defenses of the Chinese armies on both sides, we can surround this place, and then ......"

Compared to the insignificant credit of breaking through the defense line of the Shina army, perhaps the credit of rounding up a four-element demon king will be greater.
