Bright Sword: Develop alone, bring back an artillery regiment

Chapter 298 Boss: Li Yunlong must go to the clothing factory this time to think about his mistakes!

The boss said out of anger, "Don't get angry, why don't you tell me not to get angry?"

"Do you know that this is an excellent opportunity, even the only opportunity, to eliminate the 4th Brigade of the Japanese Army. It is almost impossible to eliminate the 4th Brigade of the Japanese Army in the future."

"Such a good opportunity was missed because of Li Yunlong's insatiable greed. Can I not get angry?"

The chief of staff continued to comfort him: "Boss, let's not talk about how good Wang Chengzhu is at seizing opportunities, even Ding Wei and Li Yunlong are not fuel-efficient lamps, they are all opportunists.

As long as there is an opportunity to make a fortune and fight devils, they will never miss or let it go. "

"Therefore, we can see that this is a message to wipe out the remnants of the Japanese 4th Brigade. They may not be able to."

"Maybe Masao Nishiyama has been targeted by them for a long time, and they are already ready to do it now."

"Moreover, this is also an opportunity to test the strategic vision of Li Yunlong, Ding Wei, and Wang Chengzhu.

Take a step back, even if you miss this opportunity, the 4th Brigade has been severely damaged, and it will be difficult to pose a threat to our Eighth Route Army in a short time.

Correspondingly, we can also take advantage of this rare opportunity to develop rapidly.

This is already a big victory! "

The boss shook his head helplessly: "Chief of staff, you, you know how to protect Li Yunlong, a stupid bastard!"

"In this way, if they really wiped out the remnants of the Japanese 4th Brigade this time, then I will not hold Li Yunlong accountable.

But if they don't seize the opportunity, then I will count the crime and punish him, and let him go to the quilt factory to study for a period of time. "

……

the other side.

Taiyuan, the headquarters of the Japanese First Army.

In the Battle of Huluxia, the 9th Brigade of the Japanese Army was almost wiped out, and the observation group of the Front Army was completely wiped out. A Major General and 6 Colonels were also captured. Saying that, is a huge shame.

For this reason, Shinozuka Yoshio was severely criticized by the commander of the front army, Neiji Okamura, and the base camp.

This can't help but discredit Yoshio Shinozuka, and also makes him unable to hold his head up in front of his colleagues.

Yoshio Shinozuka, who has always been proud and arrogant, could not stand such anger.

It turned out that Shinozuka Yoshio was conspiring with Chief of Staff Jun Miyano to formulate a plan to launch a retaliatory sweep against the Eighth Route Army.

To wash away the great shame brought to them by the Eighth Route Army.

But when he learned that Masao Nishiyama had dispatched troops to attack the base of the Wangjia Village Independent Camp without asking for instructions, he was completely stunned.

It would be fine if Masao Nishiyama succeeded. The most important thing is that Masao Nishiyama not only failed to succeed, but fell into the opponent's trap himself, causing heavy casualties to the 4th Brigade, and even being surrounded by groups, which may be destroyed at any time.

This made Yoshio Shinozuka even more angry, and made him not in the mood to continue making sweeping plans.

There is no way, the sweeping plan he made is based on the 4th Brigade as the core, coupled with two infantry regiments, two independent mixed regiments, plus several mixed brigades of the Royal Association Army.

Now that the core of the 4th Brigade is gone, the plan is naturally stillborn.

At this time, a Japanese communication staff officer hurried in from the outside with a message in his hand: "Report to Your Excellency, the 4th Brigade has called, saying that they have successfully transferred to Wanjia Town, and plan to rest in Wanjia Town for a while." After night, return to Fangshan County."

The airmen who came back early had already reported this news, so Yoshio Shinozuka was not interested in this, but asked: "How about the casualties of the 4th Brigade?"

The devil's communication staff officer: "There are about 6500 imperial soldiers killed and captured.

In addition, more than 600 people were injured. "

Hearing this, Shinozuka Yoshio's originally extremely ugly face suddenly became extremely gloomy, and he asked with a ferocious face: "Nani? The 4th Brigade killed more than 6500 people and injured more than 600 people ?”

"Hi Yi!" The devil's communication staff nodded again, not daring to look directly into Shinozuka Yoshio's eyes.

"Baga! Masao Nishiyama is an idiot, it doesn't count that he ruined my plan, and because of his stupid behavior, more than 6500 imperial soldiers were killed."

"Capital crime! He is a capital crime!"

Shinozuka Yoshio gritted his teeth tightly, blood stains seeping from his gums.

In fact, it’s no wonder that he was so angry. You know, the 4th Brigade plus the specially equipped artillery brigade only had a total of more than 8000 people. Right now, more than 6500 people have been killed and more than 600 people have been injured. It means that less than a thousand people can still fight.

It is not a big problem to say that they were completely wiped out.

The most important thing is that the 9th Brigade has just been hit hard, and now the 4th Brigade has been hit hard again, which has to make the higher-ups doubt his command ability as the commander of the First Army.

He was even held accountable along with him.

The chief of staff Miyano Toshi next to him also realized the seriousness of the problem, and he hurriedly comforted him: "Your Excellency, calm down, according to the military law, Nishiyama-kun acted without authorization, causing the 4th Brigade to almost wipe out the entire army. Even if it is not a capital crime, it is enough for him court martial."

"But we can't let him be held accountable. On the contrary, we should help him conceal the incident, and try our best to let him reorganize the 4th Brigade."

Shinozuka Yoshio said with a grim expression: "Miyano-kun, what do you mean by that? Masao Nishiyama committed such a crime, it's fine for you to plead for him, but you still want me to help cover him?"

Miyano Toshi hurriedly explained: "Your Excellency, that's not what I mean. The reason why I say this is also for the sake of you and the entire First Army."

"Just think about it, if this matter is reported to the higher authorities, Mr. Xishan will be punished, but there is no guarantee that the higher authorities will not doubt our abilities, which will not be of any benefit to us.

After all, there is an old saying in China, which says that family ugliness should not be publicized. "

Shinozuka Yoshio pondered for a while, and felt that what Miyano Jun said seemed very reasonable.

So he nodded and said, "Well, Miyano-kun, your worries are not unreasonable, but capital crimes can be avoided, but living crimes cannot be escaped."

"Punish him with one year's military salary, plus 30 military sticks. If he performs well in the future, he will continue to be the brigade commander of the 4th Brigade. If he does not perform well, he will be punished for several crimes and let him directly apologize to His Majesty the Emperor." !"

"Hi Yi!"

Miyano Jun nodded heavily, then turned and went out to deal with the matter himself.

……

The screen is pulled to the Independence Camp.

Ten p.m.

Wang Chengzhu led the independent battalion to a small forest two kilometers west of Wanjia City.

Marching all the way to this point, the soldiers have exhausted a lot of physical strength. If they attack directly, their combat effectiveness will definitely be greatly reduced.

Moreover, the detailed information about Wanjia Town has not been sent yet, so it is naturally not a good time to launch an attack.

So Wang Chengzhu immediately issued an order to let the troops enter the woods on the side of the road to rest and eat, so as to recover their strength as soon as possible.

At the same time, we are waiting for information from the Spike Special Forces...
