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

Chapter 238 Steamroller Tactics!
"Indeed."

Yoshino Shinozuka quickly took the telegram and read it. After reading it, he said bitterly to the chief of staff, Major General Miyano Michiichi: "His Majesty Tianlo soon found out about the annihilation of the 36th Division and the 41st Infantry Regiment. Your Majesty is furious."

"Commander!"

Miyano Michiichi received the telegram from Shinozuka Yoshinan and finished reading it, and said helplessly and bitterly: "The matter has come to this, and we can only report the results of the war to His Majesty Tianlocust in detail, and apologize to His Majesty."

"According to the chief of staff's words, send a report to His Majesty to plead guilty!"

Shinozuka Yoshinan waved his hand and gave orders to Communications Staff Major Kitamura Junyi.

"Yes, Your Excellency Commander."

Major Kitamura Junyi paused heavily, then immediately turned and returned to the communication office.

Soon, at the Royal Study Room of the Imperial Palace in the East Jingcheng of the Kingdom of Wa.

"Bageyalu, Shinoka Yoshinan fought such a bad battle! Is this still a commander of the empire?"

Seeing Yoshino Shinoka's reply telegram sent by the attendant very quickly, the Japanese Emperor was also in a hurry and cursed.

"Your Majesty, this is the end of the matter, what is the deal with General Shinozuka Yoshinan now?"

the servant asked in a low voice.

"The First Army still needs Shinozuka Yoshinan to control the situation in Jin, and it's not easy to withdraw Shinozuka Yoshinan."

Although the Japanese emperor was angry, it was very important for the battle situation in Jin until Yoshino Shinozuka now controls the first army.

It is unrealistic to hastily withdraw Yoshinan Shinozuka and replace him with another imperial general to control the First Army of the Imperial Army.

What's more, if another imperial general is in charge of the first army, it will take more time to get familiar with Xu Rui and other troops.

It's better to let Shinozuka Yoshinan take the crime and make meritorious service!

"In my name, Shinozuka Yoshinan was ordered to commit crimes and meritorious deeds, and Shinozuka Yoshinan was fined for half a year's military pay."

The Japanese Emperor thought for a while, and then gave an order to the attendant: "I ordered Shinozuka Yoshinan, I don't care what method he uses, next time, Xu Rui must be dealt with, and the head of this person must be sent to the imperial court." On the mainland, I will send Prince Toshihiko Fushimi, who died in battle, as food."

"Yes, Your Majesty the Locust!"

The attendant hurriedly said heavily, and then immediately went down and sent someone to call back the order to Yoshinan Shinozuka.

Five or six minutes later, in the command room of the Devil's First Army Headquarters in Taiyuan City.

"Huhuhu!!!"

After receiving the call back from the Japanese emperor, Shinozuka Yoshinan finally let out three breaths, secretly relieved, and then said to the chief of staff, Major General Miyano Michiichi: "Your Majesty still understands the situation here!".

"It's nothing more than three things to commit crimes and meritorious deeds. Your Majesty Tian Locust has given me a second chance, Miyano-kun."

"Once the next battle against Xu Rui and other troops is not successful, I'm afraid I will ask myself to withdraw from the position of commander of the First Army."

Of course, Miyano Michiichi understands the truth that there are only three things. Even if the Japanese emperor knows the importance of Shinozuka Yoshinan's control of the First Army to the current situation in Jin, he will issue an order to withdraw the commander of Shinozuka Yoshinan's First Army. Official position.

After all, if the second heavy counterattack failed again, it would be impossible for the Japanese Emperor, or General Toshi Tada of the Front Army Command, to let Shinozuka Yoshinan continue to control the First Army of the Imperial Army.

Therefore, Miyano Michiichi, who understood the truth here, said in a concentrated voice: "Commander, then we must make complete preparations. The 41st Division, the 2nd Brigade, and the 16th Brigade have all regrouped together, and then we will go all the way. Gather from Zhenting City and head north, first capture Mingjia Town."

"Then, go all the way north along Mingjia Town, no matter what, directly attack Jinghai County. After capturing Jinghai County, go all the way north, cross the Xiushui River, and then continue all the way north, attacking Huting stronghold, until you reach Under the city of Heyuan County."

Hearing this, he stared at the military map placed on a huge table in the command room of the headquarters, the town strongholds currently recovered by Xu Rui's troops, and then said in a concentrated voice: "Miyano-kun, you are using a steamroller tactic!".

"Heavy troops are crushing all the way to the north, this is to crush the road all the way to the north!"

Miyano Michiichi pointed to the map and said fiercely: "When the time comes, no matter what.".

"It is not allowed to divide the troops, and it is not allowed to turn around. The assembled army of the 41st Division and other departments just use the tactics of the steamroller to push and attack all the way!"

"Use the tactics of a heavy steamroller to start a direct confrontation with the enemy. If Xu Rui sees this, a direct confrontation will be better. If they divide their forces and go around, we don't care. Let the 41st Division and other departments go all the way north to capture a location. Therefore, we will divide the troops into small groups to build fortifications in the occupied towns and strongholds, while the main force will continue to attack northward."

Shinozuka Yoshinan looked at the map, pondered Miyano Michiichi's tactics, and had to admit that this was the safest.

Although there were heavy casualties, this was the second best tactic to successfully annihilate Xu Rui and other troops.

The enemy's mobility is very strong, and the roundabout and interspersed tactics are very slippery.

That being the case, then make a firm stand and fight dumbly.

The heavy troops pressed the road northward, seized a place and stopped on the spot, and built fortifications to defend themselves.

Then, after the fortifications could withstand the siege of thousands of enemy troops, the main force of the army continued to move northward, all the way to Heyuan County.

This is indeed a steamroller tactic, using a strong force to force the enemy to avoid the enemy's edge.

However, this will make their initiative lost.

After pondering this, Yoshino Shinozuka completely agreed with Miyano Doichi's tactics, and immediately praised: "Miyano-kun's method is very good, so that Xu Rui and other enemy commanders must concentrate their forces to block our army. Regardless of going north, crush the heavy offensive of the north going all the way.".

"Yes, Commander."

Miyano nodded, and then said: "In order to ensure that we can reach Heyuan County, the 41st Division and other departments will need to carry at least half a month's worth of combat supplies with the food, grass and ammunition that they will carry with the army."

"In addition, Commander, we must then request the Front Army Command to allocate a batch of transport planes to support our First Army."

Hearing this, Shinozuka Yoshinan immediately guessed what his confidant chief of staff Doichi Miyano meant, and said: "Miyano-kun means that once the 41st Division and other troops go all the way north, once the recaptured town strongholds are captured The enemy's roundabout and interspersed troops captured and cut off the logistical supply line.".

"Then, the front army headquarters can support our transport planes, so they can carry out airdrops of supplies?"

Michi Miyano nodded and said, "The commander is right."

"The 36th Division and other departments went all the way north from Mingjia Town to Jinghai County. After the logistics supply line behind was cut off, the morale of the 36th Division and other departments must have been greatly affected at that time. Especially the cut off of the supply line has a huge impact."

After a pause, Miyano Michiichi said in a concentrated voice: "Therefore, I suggest that we must request from the Front Army Command to allocate a batch of transport planes that are sufficient to airdrop supplies to the 41st Division and other departments at that time.".

"It's best to use a large number of transport planes to airdrop supplies after the 41st Division's counterattack, and the supply line behind is cut off by the enemy's detours. When there is a problem with logistical supplies, a large number of transport planes can be used to ensure the supply of materials for the 41st Division and other departments at that time."

Hearing this, Yoshino Shinozuka nodded and said, "That's fine. Next, Miyano-kun, you will request the front army headquarters to allocate a transport plane in my name."
