War of Resistance

Chapter 1065 Xinyang Falls (25, please subscribe)

To the north of Xinyang, Pengjiawan, is the division headquarters of the Tenth Division of the Japanese Army.

Although it was a dark night at this time, under the action of the generator, the division headquarters of the Tenth Division was still brightly lit. The brightness of the lights was not usually sufficient. Not to mention other things, it would definitely not hurt the eyes.

Lieutenant General Yoshio Shinozuka, the head of the division, was lying on the hammock in the office of the head of the division, looking very tired.

Indeed, after fighting for so many days, how can you not be tired?The Tenth Division, as the main force of the "Imperial Way Sect" of the Japanese Army, has always been responsible for the main offensive task. Since King Higashikunimiya Toshihiko is himself a member of the imperial family, he also hopes that the troops of the "Imperial Way Sect" can establish more troops. Credit, to clear the huge military defeat in Taierzhuang.

Because of the special nature of the Tenth Division, Yoshio Shinozuka had a heavy burden on his shoulders. Even when attacking Xinyang, the troops of the Tenth Division advanced the fastest.

There is no other way, in order to wash away the shame of Taierzhuang's defeat, Yoshio Shinozuka had no choice but to do so.

It's just that Shinozuka Yoshio even himself would never have imagined that he would become so popular in Chinese film and television dramas in the future, just because of a classic TV series "Bright Sword", and in the drama Shinozuka Yoshio is a member of the Japanese army special agent team Chief officer Yamamoto Kazuki's direct superior and Bole also engaged in a "Pingan Grad" battle.

Alright, back to the book.

Just as Yoshio Shinozuka had just fallen asleep, a Japanese lieutenant officer ran in and reported, "Reporting to your Excellency, Commander, according to the report from the commander of the Tenth Regiment, Akashiba Yaezo, the Tenth Regiment has basically completed Occupation of the outer positions of Xinyang!"

"Nani?! The occupation of Xinyang's outskirts was completed so quickly?!" Even though he was a little sleepy, Shinozuka Yoshio still maintained his due tactical level. He also knew that there must be something wrong in some link , so quickly occupied the opponent's outer positions.

"Yoxi. Chief Akashiba Yaezo did report that. At the same time, he suggested that our division attack Xinyang City immediately, because he thought it might be that the Central Army of the Chinese Army had already abandoned Xinyang City." The lieutenant officer reported truthfully.

"Yoshi! This is really good news!" Shinozuka Yoshio immediately sat up from the bed, obviously very excited, how could he not want the pie that fell from the sky?This is the first attack on Xinyang.

"Then, Your Excellency, division commander, should we launch a fierce attack on Xinyang immediately?" the lieutenant commander asked.

"We must act immediately!" Shinozuka Yoshio said directly without thinking, "All troops, immediately concentrate the main force to attack Xinyang City, and strive to spend the night in Xinyang City before twelve o'clock, and we will have breakfast in Xinyang tomorrow morning !"

"Hay!!" Japanese Army Zhong Zorang responded with a very serious expression.

Shinozuka Yoshio is not a fool. After hearing Akashiba Yaezo's suggestion, he immediately decided to attack with all the main force. The reason is that he also knows that the enemy must be ready to retreat. If it is the main force Now, the Tenth Regiment won't be able to break through the enemy's position until tomorrow morning at least. It's only been over an hour now?

As an elite from Lu Shi and Army University, Shinozuka Yoshio's reaction was not so fast, and his brain was not so flexible, he made decisions and gave orders immediately.

……

Twenty minutes later, the main force of the Tenth Division of the Japanese Army immediately launched a fierce attack on Xinyang City.

The troops staying in Xinyang City can be said to be "collapsing at the first touch". Then, under the leadership of the brigade commander, the troops directly withdrew from Xinyang and ran away, following the main force of the No.17 Army.

Under the general direction of Hu Zongnan, the head of the No.17 Legion of the National Army, to maintain its strength, Xinyang had already declared its fall without a fierce battle.

The news of Xinyang's fall naturally could not be concealed from the surrounding defenders. Tian Zhennan, commander of the No. 30 Army, immediately informed Sun Lianzhong, commander-in-chief of the Second Army, of the situation.

"Hi, pick up the Second Army Command, I'm Tian Zhennan, Commander of the No. 30 Army!" Tian Zhennan picked up the phone and dialed it.

After a while, the phone was connected.

"Pick up Officer Sun Lianzhong for me. I am Tian Zhennan, and I have urgent military affairs to report!" At this time, Tian Zhennan's tone was already a little anxious, because his troops were next to Hu Zongnan's troops, and If he retreats without receiving an order, he will probably be shot. He is also a military commander, and he is not from the direct line of Huangpu. own situation.

"I'm Sun Lianzhong, tell me!" Sun Lianzhong's voice was a little hoarse at this time, which must be caused by insufficient rest.

"Hey, is this Officer Sun? I'm Tian Zhennan, Xinyang has fallen. That old boy Hu Zongnan has escaped!" Tian Zhennan didn't make any detours and said it directly.

"What! Hu Zongnan ran away!? Xinyang has fallen?!" Obviously, Sun Lianzhong couldn't believe his ears. He knew the combat effectiveness of the Central Army, but he didn't expect Hu Zongnan to run so simply. I don't know what to say, both are generals of the Central Army, why is there such a big difference between Song Xilian and Hu Zongnan?
"Yes! Hu Zongnan is gone! The First Army has already run away!" Tian Zhennan had a bitter look on his face. He had fought side by side with Hu Zongnan two days ago, and had achieved some victories. How could he have thought that this kid would run away as soon as he said that? .

"Okay, I understand. You order your troops to prepare for battle, and at the same time you also order your troops to prepare for retreat!" Sun Lianzhong said bluntly.

"But, is the battle of Xinyang not going to be fought? Wuhan's door is about to open..." Tian Zhennan is really not reconciled, he has been fighting for so long, how can he just withdraw?

"Xinyang is lost, let's play a game! If you continue to fight, the fifth theater will be finished! Execute the order immediately!!" After finishing speaking, Sun Lianzhong angrily hung up the phone.

After Sun Lianzhong hung up the phone, he greeted Hu Zongnan's family members with swear words, and planned to write a message to ask the communications department to report the sudden situation to the commander of the war zone.

……

Not long after, about 10 minutes later, the commander-in-chief of the fifth theater received the telegram that Xinyang was lost, which explained in detail why Xinyang was lost.

"Report sir, Xinyang lost the urgent telegram from the front line." Walking in front of Li Zongren, the commander in chief of the theater, the adjutant did not hesitate, and explained the situation concisely.

"What? How could Xinyang be lost so quickly!" Li Zongren almost didn't believe his ears, because in his opinion, Xinyang could last at least half a month. If the command is proper, it might not be without a huge victory .

"The telegram is here, please read it, sir. This is an urgent telegram signed by the commander-in-chief of the Second Army, Sun Lianzhong." As he spoke, the adjutant presented the telegram to Li Zongren.

Li Zongren took the telegram and read it carefully. After a while, his face turned pale, and he clenched his fists tightly. He said with a Southwest official: "Hu Zongnan, who is not good at learning? , learn to fuck Tang Enbo! Fuck your mother!!"
