Invincible from the sword

Chapter 296 This battle is not quite right
Hata Shunroku was very upset.

He is now the Minister of War of the island country, and he is not afraid of Terauchi Shouichi at all.

Isn't he the commander of the North China Front Army?

You are a fart in front of me, Hata Shunroku!

Hata Junliu knew very well in his heart that Shuichi Terauchi was angry.

Originally, Juichi Terauchi was also very envious of the position of Minister of War of the island country.

In terms of seniority, Terauchi Toshiichi is older than Hata Shunroku.

But helplessly, he is not as strong as Hata Toshiroku.

What makes Terauchi Shouichi most depressed is that not only the island country's army minister does not have his share.

Even the position of chief of staff of the island nation was robbed.

In the eyes of Kotobuki in the temple, Seishiro Itagaki doesn't count as a fart.

During the Battle of Shanxi, Seishiro Itagaki was the head of the Fifth Division.

Unexpectedly, after bouncing around a few times, he actually became the chief of staff headquarters.

This made Temple Shouichi very unhappy.

Not a bit upright yet?

So this time, Terauchi Shouyi directly refused to help the Fourth Division go south.

I don't care if you die!
Hideki Tojo scratched his head.

Shouichi in this temple is simply crazy.

Didn't he know that Anan Weiji, the No. 11 Army commander, was recommended by Tian Locust himself?

If Anan Weiji was defeated, it would be a slap in the face of His Majesty.

This is totally courting death.

Hideki Tojo immediately sent a telegram to Terauchi Shouichi, asking him to arrange for the Fourth Division to go south immediately.

Otherwise, he will be removed from his post as commander of the North China Front Army.

At this time, Shuichi in Terauchi was sucking persimmons in his bed.

Suck.

Suck.

what! !

A mouthful of yellow.

Shuichi in the temple is now, and there is nothing wrong.

The whole of North China seemed to calm down all of a sudden.

During this period, the activities of the Eighth Route Army were greatly reduced.

This made Temple Shouyi feel a lot better.

Could it be that the cage strategy proposed by Yoshio Youzuka worked?

Suo ga.

Probably.

Otherwise, there is no explanation at all.

Yoshio Youzuka, although he looks a little darker, he still has skills.

When I have the opportunity, I can let him serve as the chief of staff of my North China Front Army.

Terauchi Shouyi oh, he stuffed a persimmon into his mouth with one bite.

Mouth full of food.

A devil major rushed in with a telegram: "Report to Your Excellency Commander, the telegram from the base camp.

It is requested to immediately arrange for the Fourth Division to go south.

Otherwise military law is engaged. "

Nani?

Terauchi Shou was taken aback for a moment.

Engaged in military law?

Is this an order from the base camp?

Terauchi Shouichi thought he had heard wrong.

I took the telegram and looked at it. The signature on it was Hideki Tojo.

Tojo, your uncle!

Shou in the temple tore up the telegram with one stab.

Still engaged in military law?
From your sister.

Shou Yi in the temple was very unhappy.

The last time the cabinet was reorganized, he didn't get a single lifespan in the temple.

Now Hideki Tojo, that bastard, is actually so arrogant.

Temple Shouyi was in a bad mood.

The reason why he wanted to delay the Fourth Division going south was because he had his own ideas.

Since Okamura Ningji was defeated in the last battle in Changsha, Terauchi Shouichi could see it.

If the Japanese army can have another major defeat, then their island cabinet may have to be reorganized.

In that case, his Terauchi Shouichi would have a chance to enter the cabinet,
Even if you can't get into the cabinet, you can get a chief of the general staff, or the undersecretary of the island country's army.

At least it's better than being the commander of a front army.

This time, Anan Weiji served as the commander of the No. 11 Japanese army and launched an attack on Changha again.

In Terauchi Shouichi's view, it was just a joke.

Just that idiot Anan Weiji can actually serve as the commander of the No. 11 Japanese army.

This is just kidding.

Famous generals like Neiji Okamura are no match for Tiger Cubs, and you, Ananwei, are nothing.

Shouichi in the temple is almost certain that Ananwei will be beaten into shit.

In this case, Hideki Tojo will have to take the blame and resign if he fails.

At that time, Shouyi in his temple would have a chance to take the position.

Hahahaha.

Terauchi Shouichi thought very well.

But after hearing that the base camp of the island country transferred a few hundred planes to Ananwei, Terauchi Shouichi felt a little overwhelmed.

So I have an extra heart.

Delay the time for the Japanese Fourth Division to go south.

In this case, Anan will not have enough troops in his hands.

At that time, he will return without success just like Neiji Okamura.

Terauchi Shouichi thought very well.

But the pressure on the top is also quite high.

Now Hideki Tojo has begun to urge.

If Shouyi in his temple did not let the Fourth Division go south, maybe he would really be held accountable.

Siuchi Shouyi thought for a while, and ordered to send a train to let the Fourth Division go south.

But he still played a trick.

Picked the slowest train.

And they're all stuffy jars.

The weather like this is the hottest time.

The iron sheets on the train are hot to the touch.

It is always boring to transport the Japanese army by train, and it is hard to say whether the Fourth Division will survive to Wuhan.

Ken Kitano, the commander of the Fourth Division of the Japanese Army, was so angry that he almost got into a fight with Terauchi Shouichi.

The knives were all drawn.

After thinking about it, I held back.

idiot.

Don't say that he hacked Shuichi Siuichi alive, just spit, probably Shuichi Siuichi would kill him.

Officials crushed people to death.

This is not a joke.

Kitano took two deep breaths.

Fortunately, he, the commander of the division, has a single room on the train.

This is not bad.

Finally the train beeped away.

He drove towards Wuhan with a humming sound.

Under the order of Anan Weiji, the Japanese Sixth Division and No.30 Third Division have all crossed the Xinqiang River.

At the beginning, Kanda Masakae, head of the Japanese Sixth Division, suspected that the other party was cheating.

After all, he also knew in his heart that Tiger Cub's troops were not so easy to fight.

But as the troops advanced, Kanda Shochu discovered that Tiger Boy's troops were almost retreating all the way.

In the tens of kilometers from the Xinqiang River to the Miluo River, there was not much resistance at all.

This made Kanda Shochu feel that Anan Weiji's blitzkrieg was effective.

In any case, it was the first time for Kanda Shochu to fight the blitzkrieg.

In the past, they fought very rhythmically.

Frontal attack, outflanked by two wings.

The artillery bombarded, and the infantry rushed.

The infantry rushed through the cannonade.

so cycle.

Now they have suddenly changed their tactics, taking advantage of the mechanized advantages of the Japanese army, they just kept pushing forward.

This feeling is really good.

Kanda Shochu immediately ordered that the Sixth Division advance southward at full speed.

Within three hours, break through the Miluo River!

The No.30 Third Division of the Japanese Army in the back is quickly catching up with the Sixth Division.

Aoki No. 30, head of the third division, frowned.

Very upset.

This Kanda Shozo rushed too fast.

His No.30 Third Division simply couldn't catch up.

no way.

His No.30 Third Division is a second-tier division.

Whether it is trucks, tanks or sidecars, there are not as many as the Sixth Division.

So the speed can't keep up, it's normal.

Since the Sixth Division rushed so fast, let them rush.

Chief of Staff of the No.30 Third Division said to Aoki: "Your Excellency, Division Chief, there is already a distance of more than ten miles between us and the Sixth Division.

If this continues, the distance between us and the Sixth Division will become wider and wider.

Should I inform the Sixth Division to slow down their speed.

Wait for us? "

Aoki snorted.

idiot.

Talking about this with Kanda Shochu at this time is just asking for shame.

The current Kanda Shozo is the time to be proud.

It's impossible to slow him down.

Aoki looked at the devils of his No.30 Third Division, and they were all exhausted.

The dog ran non-stop all day.

Didn't even drink urine.

If this continues, let alone offense, defense will become a problem.

Aoki, the commander of the No.30 Third Division of the Japanese Army, immediately ordered his troops to rest for an hour after reaching the north bank of the Miluo River.

The Japanese Sixth Division doesn't care about this.

Under the leadership of division chief Kanda Shochu, the Sixth Division advanced very fast.

At this speed, his Sixth Division will reach the Miluo River in at most three hours.

Such lightning-like speed made Kanda Shochu very satisfied.

Suo ga.

Commander Anan Weiji said that their battle this time was a blitzkrieg.

From now on, the name is simply too appropriate.

My Sixth Division is almost like a bolt of lightning.

As long as Changsha is occupied, then his Kanda is being planted in the Sixth Division, and he has gained a firm foothold.

At that time, he, the commander of the lieutenant general, will not consider another replacement at the base camp of the island nation.

At this time, the National Army's Fourth Army, Eighth Army, and No.20 Army in Dayun Mountain had already launched an attack on the Japanese No.14 Brigade on the outskirts of Dayun Mountain.

Because the Japanese army only had one brigade on the outskirts of Dayun Mountain, it was not an opponent of the three armies of the national army at all.

It was quickly compressed on a small hillside,

The head of the No.14 Brigade of the Japanese Army quickly sent a telegram to Anan Weiji, requesting reinforcements.

This made Anan very depressed.

idiot.

There's something wrong with this battle.

Didn't Tiger Cub only have one army in Dayun Mountain?

How could one of his own brigades be surrounded?
Konoe Wen, Chief of Staff of the No. 11 Army of the Japanese Army, narrowed his eyes: "Your Excellency, the purpose of Tiger Boy's troops in Dayun Mountain is to contain the strength of our attacking troops.

Now the Sixth Division and the No.30 Third Division are attacking very smoothly.

If troops are deployed from here to reinforce the No.14 brigade, it will have a great impact on our offensive. "

Ananwei nodded.

Definitely.

Now on the frontal battlefield in northern Hunan, he has the strength of two divisions.

If troops were deployed to reinforce the No.14 brigade, then this would not be a blitzkrieg.

But the No.14 brigade must be rescued safely.

Otherwise, it is simply impossible to justify.

Ananwei frowned and thought for a while: "Order, the third division will deploy two regiments to reinforce Dayun Mountain."

Nani?

Konoe Wen, the chief of staff of the Japanese army, felt a little bit in his heart.

Draw troops from the third division...

In this case, only the supply troops and engineering troops are left in Wuhan's guard force.

Plus a division directly under the brigade.

Isn't it enough to defend Wuhan with such a small force?
