Liang Jian: Peaceful battle, I will bring a group to help the scene

Chapter 209 New Shanxi Northwest Iron Triangle?

"Teacher commander!"

After the communications staff member walked away, the chief of staff of the 36th Division, Kenzaburo Taketo, continued to ask Nagata Taro with serious eyes: "What should we do now?".

"If you don't withdraw your troops and turn around and head south, first get through the ground traffic behind to ensure the safety of the army's supply line. It's not a problem to be so passively beaten!"

Hearing this, Nagata Taro stared at the map on the table in thought.

"At this time, turn around and withdraw the troops and return to the south, let alone whether we can fight all the way to Mingjia Town."

After being silent for a while, Taro Nagata said to the chief of staff, Major General Taketo Kenzaburo, in a low voice: "Especially, you also said just now, chief of staff, that after the new regiment of the enemy's Eighth Route Army has dealt with the rest of the 41st Infantry Regiment, they will Take advantage of the trend and go northward, enter Woyupo, and build a blocking position there to intercept us."

"We all know the terrain of Woyupo. We only need a few heavy machine guns and a few artillery pieces, which is enough to block the road below Woyupo! Once we have settled down under Woyupo, we cannot continue to fight south On the north bank of the Liujiang River, it will be troublesome."

After a pause, Nagata Taro continued to point to the map and said, "What's more, the Nanliu River Stone Bridge has been blown up by the troops of the Eighth Route Army Xinyi Regiment.".

"The short-term repair made my army cross the river through Woyupo and continue to fight to Mingjia Town. The success rate before dawn is not high. Now withdrawing troops and returning south, I don't agree for the time being!"

Hearing this, Taketo Kenzaburo knew that the last sentence indicated that Nagata Taro meant to withdraw his troops and return south.

However, the timing is not right!
"The commander of the division, shall we withdraw our troops and return to the south after dawn?"

Taketo Kensaburo said in a low voice.

"After dawn, withdraw troops and return south!"

Seeing that the supply lines in the back were cut off by others, he also commanded the army to continue to march under the strong city of Jinghai County.

Unless Jinghai County can be stormed and captured regardless of casualties, it is impossible to maintain the ability to continue fighting without turning around and re-opening the rear supply line when the logistics supply line has been cut off.

"unless."

Nagata Taro finally gritted his teeth and said.

"Master, unless what?"

Hearing this sentence, the chief of staff of the division, Kenzaburo Taketo, didn't understand, so, is Nagata Taro still not giving up and continuing to fight here?
"Unless you ask Your Excellency Commander to send reinforcements, let the reinforcements get through the Mingjia Town and other places behind, and get through our rear supply line."

Nagata Taro also said with a little shame.

"Ask the commander to send reinforcements?"

Hearing this, Kenzaburo Taketo was quite surprised, but he also felt ashamed afterwards.

You know, there are more than [-] imperial troops on our side now.

Such a request to Yoshino Shinozuka for reinforcements, and to open up the supply line in the rear for them, just made Yoshino Shinozuka die of laughter.

"Master, we are not there yet."

Taketo Kensaburo thought for a while, and finally smiled wryly in a low voice.

"Yes!"

Nagata Taro looked at the map under the light, and said with a wry smile: "We still have more than 2 elite imperial troops in our hands. Sending a report to Your Excellency the Commander, asking for troops to reinforce us, is simply disappointing the Commander. our expectations."

"So, this matter cannot be mentioned for the time being!"

Seeing this, Taketo Kensaburo said in a concentrated voice: "Then the head of the division, what should we do now?".

"I can't, let's storm Jinghai County, right?"

Nagata Taro shook his head. He knew the tenacity of the enemy troops and the solid fortifications on the Dabei Mountain and Xiaobei Mountain outside the south gate of Jinghai County, and he wanted to take down Jinghai County.

Dabei Mountain and Xiaobei Mountain, the two commanding heights outside the city of Jinghai County, must not be abandoned, so this seems a bit helpless.

Once Dabei Mountain and Xiaobei Mountain are stormed, the casualties will soar!
"It is impossible to storm Jinghai County!"

Nagata Taro looked at the military map placed on the table, and then said to Taketo Kensaburo: "If we want to win the two commanding heights outside the city, Dabei Mountain and Xiaobei Mountain, we must leave at least thousands of imperial weapons." Corpses of soldiers."

"Therefore, after the storming of Jinghai County, there may still be thousands of dead bodies lost in the fierce battle in the city afterward."

After a pause, Nagata Taro said, "The casualties are too great."

"The division commander, what do you mean?"

Seeing this, Kenzaburo Taketo could only ask aloud like this.

Although Nagata Taro agreed just now to withdraw his troops and return to the south after dawn, but now he has to do something.

Otherwise, they would not be able to guess the enemy's next reaction.

"Wait until the roundabout remnant soldiers commanded by Kazuo Miyatake in the direction of General Ridge on the left wing withdraw."

Pointing to the map, Nagata Taro gritted his teeth and said, "In addition, the troops in the direction of Laoyeling will also withdraw!".

"The blocking troops in the direction of Laoyeling also withdraw?"

Hearing this, Taketo Kensaburo's expression changed slightly, and he said.

"Since 2000 people from the New First Regiment of the Eighth Route Army have occupied Mingjia Town, the New First Regiment of the Eighth Route Army in the direction of Laoyeling is estimated to have only 2000 troops. Before going five kilometers to the east, deploy defenses and monitor the area in the direction of Laoyeling. The enemy imperial infantry brigade, then withdraw at this time too!"

Nagata Taro pointed to the map, gritted his teeth and said: "When these troops on the left and right wings withdraw, we will withdraw our troops and return to the south before dawn tomorrow.".

"Master, I agree."

After thinking about it, Kenzaburo Taketo, chief of staff of the 36th Division, weighed it up, and finally nodded in agreement with Nagata Taro's decision.

"Then let the messengers immediately send an order to the imperial infantry brigade five kilometers east to monitor and block the enemy troops in the direction of Laoyeling, telling them to retreat here."

Taro Nagata said to Kenzaburo Taketo.

"Yes, division commander."

Taketo Kensaburo nodded, and then immediately walked aside, ordering the communications staff officer to have his communications soldiers hurry to the right-wing Laoyeling direction to monitor the withdrawal of the devil troops guarding the [-]st Division of the New Regiment of the Laoyeling Eighth Route Army.

And this radio transmission was immediately intercepted by the communications soldiers of the 303rd regiment in the temporary bunker headquarters of the 303rd regiment in the south gate of Jinghai County from the radio monitoring.

Then, after some translation and deciphering, the communication staff Gu Jiaping immediately reported to Xu Rui.

Of course, the breakout telegram sent by Nagata Taro's headquarters to the Japanese troops attacking in the direction of Jiangjunling was also intercepted and deciphered before.

Soon, Xu Rui, who got the latest situation in the direction of Jiangjunling and Laoyeling, was immediately taken aback.

"Fuck, Chu Yunfei actually sent a battalion to attack the devil's detour troops at the temporary camp under Jiangjunling Mountain at this time, and even surrounded them."

After Xu Rui got the report, he was secretly surprised and said, "Made, it's really beyond my expectation."

"Could it be that I, Chu Yunfei, Li Yunlong, the new Shanxi-Northwest Iron Triangle in this world can also say the same?"

At this time, Chief of Staff Luo Youdu saw that Xu Rui was stunned after reading the two deciphered telegrams, and said, "Team seat, group seat?".

"Ah, Chief of Staff, it's okay, I'm stupefied."

Hearing Luo Youdu's voice, Xu Rui came back to his senses with a smile and said.

"Tuan Zuo, Chu Yunfei makes a move at this time, he is a bit interested in taking advantage of it!"

Pointing to the deciphered first telegram sent by Gu Jiaping at the beginning, Chief of Staff Luo Youdu said.

"I didn't expect that either!"

Xu Rui nodded and said, "I didn't expect that Chu Yunfei would send another battalion to detour from behind Jiangjunling to attack the devil's camp at the foot of the mountain in front of Jiangjunling."
