Anti-Japanese War: Starting from Yaobai

Chapter 575 Baijiazhen is in a hurry!
Fujimura didn't even believe a single punctuation mark in Zhongzuo Nakayama's telegram.

The Chinese have aircraft support?Just a small Xiaoyangzhuang?What are you kidding?
And chariots?After fighting so many battles, Fujimura has seen two Chinese chariots.

So he was sure Zhongshan was lying.

However, Zhongshan is arrogant and has a lot of combat wisdom. In his 23rd regiment, he has always been called Little Zhuge.

The Japanese have coveted Chinese culture for a long time, so they have done a lot of research on Chinese history.They know that Zhuge Liang in China is an extremely smart man.So some smart people among the Japanese also resorted to this name.

It's just that they are still a little self-aware, and they used the word 'small', otherwise it would be really ridiculous.

So Fujimura felt a little strange. Was it the Chinese army that could push Zhongshan to the point of calling for help?
Although he does not believe that the Chinese will have any planes or tanks.But it was clear that his Second Infantry Battalion was in danger.

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency?"

Seeing the old devil Fujimura stunned, Tian Yuan, the captain of the Japanese First Brigade on the side, called out, because the First Brigade was still waiting for Fujimura's order.

The offensive has stalled, and the Chinese are fortifying the city.They used sandbags to block the gaps in the crenels on the walls, and the gates were also being sandbags.

Although such a defense is almost useless under the heavy artillery of the Imperial Japanese Army, it will definitely cause obstacles.

Therefore, what Tian Yuan devil means is that it is better to attack sooner rather than later, so that the Chinese have no chance to breathe.

The Fujimura devil was awakened, and he also realized that there were many uncertain factors in this battle.

He has been watching the battle with the help of binoculars. Although the enemy is fighting bravely, they are no match for the Imperial Japanese Army in terms of overall strength or numbers. It is only a matter of time before they occupy Baijia Town.

What he is most worried about now is the Chinese reinforcements.

He is very clear about the strength of his Second Infantry Battalion, and Zhongshan is as cunning as a fox.And to push him into a desperate situation, this army is definitely not easy.

And as for rescue, it doesn't exist.The most he could do was call for air support.As for whether the empire's plane will come, that's not up to him.Because at this time everywhere is fighting, and everywhere is asking for air support.But where does the empire have so many planes and bombs?

"Give power to the headquarters and request the air force to provide air support to Xiaoyangzhuang, ten miles north of Baijia Town. A large number of enemy reinforcements were found there. The exact number is unknown, but it put our 23rd Regiment [-] in an extremely disadvantageous situation.

Send power to Zhongshan Zhongzuo, ordering him to persist, and reinforcements have been dispatched. "

The Fujimura devil gave the order, and the messenger bowed down, and then went to deliver the order.At this time, Fujimura pointed in the direction of Baijia Town and said, "One hour, within one hour, Baijia Town must be taken."

"Hi!"

The captain of the first brigade of the Japanese army took the order, and then went with the captain of the third brigade to mobilize the soldiers of his own headquarters to prepare for a new round of attack on Baijia Town.

These two devils hated the defenders of Baijia Town madly.Because just now, the first brigade and the third infantry brigade, each with a squadron of imperial troops, died under the city of Baijia Town, and all of them were killed.

For the two devils, this is not just the loss of a squadron of soldiers, but their shame.

At this time, they have even thought about how to torture the Chinese to retaliate against them after entering the town.

For revenge, the two devils discussed and divided into three groups.The first brigade was responsible for the frontal attack, while the third infantry brigade dispatched two squadrons to detour around the two gates in the south and north of the city to launch an attack at the same time.

After the battle just now, they have already noticed that the opponent's strength is obviously different from what the intelligence said.

The information they received was that there was only one battalion defending Baijia Town, and all of them were local troops with limited combat effectiveness.

But now it seems that the intelligence is wrong.They speculated that the defenders in Baijia Town should have at least two battalions, or even more.

So they want to separate the defenders of Baijia Town and defeat them one by one.

And sure enough, the devil's conspiracy made Li Guoqiang very headache.If the Japanese attack from the front, the remaining battalion in their hands can block the Japanese attack for at least two to three hours, so that the reinforcements can rush to Baijia Town.

Just now Zhou Weiguo sent a message to Li Guoqiang, asking them to stick to it for two hours. After two hours, the battle in Xiaoyangzhuang was over, and the large troops came to support immediately.

Hearing this news, Li Guoqiang was a little excited, because the devils in Xiaoyangzhuang had a brigade.And if the reinforcements can eat up this brigade, then as long as they stick to it for two hours and fight for the arrival of the reinforcements, then Baijia Town will be as solid as gold.

It's just that the world is unpredictable, not only did the devils not divide their troops for reinforcements, but two groups of devils were moving south and north of the city.

The devils wanted to attack the city from three sides, but there were less than two rows of soldiers defending the south gate and the north gate, and there were no fortifications outside the city.

He and Zhang Battalion Commander Zhang, who was formerly the garrison of Baijia Town, said: "How many people do you have? Can you separate two platoons to support the south gate and the north gate?"

Battalion Commander Zhang said in embarrassment: "Li Battalion Commander, the two companies of the garrison battalion no longer exist, and the remaining company has three platoons guarding the south gate, the north gate, and the west gate. There is one guard squad left, and some wounded soldiers. Maybe they can be mixed into a platoon."

Li Guoqiang frowned, his brows were condensed into a crease.There was a severe shortage of troops.

He put his arms around Battalion Commander Zhang's neck, and said in a low voice, "Brother, our troops are seriously short. You can only take your guard squad and those wounded soldiers with you. Go and guard the south gate and the north gate. I'll think of a way. I'll take a platoon from the first battalion to guard the north gate."

Battalion Commander Zhang also frowned and said, "Your first battalion doesn't even have the strength of two companies. How about another platoon?"

Battalion Commander Zhang did not continue.Because at this time everyone understands that the frontal defense is already insufficient in strength, so how can we continue to divide the troops at this time?

But there was nothing to do at this time. The combat effectiveness of a platoon of garrison troops could not even match that of a small Japanese army.Even if another platoon of troops is sent, it can barely resist.

As for whether it can be kept, it can only be resigned to fate.

The enemy was several times their size, and there were not enough troops in the city, so they had no choice but to adopt this method which was not an option.

I just didn't want to be at this moment, but someone shouted: "Patriarch Bai is here."

Li Guoqiang said angrily, "Why hasn't he left yet?"

Battalion Commander Zhang was also very helpless, because it was useless to persuade him just now.

At the same time, an old man with a hunched figure but a good spirit and an upright face walked up to the city wall with a civilized stick.

Beside him were two members of the Bai clan dressed in black and holding guns.

The Bai family, the largest surname in Baijia Town, accounts for [-]% of the Bai family in the entire Baijia Town, and most of the remaining surnames are related to the Bai family.

Therefore, Bai Jianqiu, the old patriarch of the Bai family, has a detached position in the Bai family town, even the county magistrate, he has to act according to his face! .
