I am God of War in Snow Leopard

Chapter 117 The Japanese were fooled and successfully broke through
Before the adjutants went to check the situation, Takamori ran back from the front line in disgrace.

When Riichiro Katayama saw his appearance, he frowned and immediately asked: "Takamori-kun, what happened?
How is the situation ahead? "

Takashi Takamori said with a mournful face: "Report to the general, the cunning China Army has planted a large number of explosive traps in the city.

Mr. Zhongbao and more than 200 imperial warriors didn't even have a chance to react. They have all died for the empire. "

Before Riichiro Katayama could feel sad, a communications soldier ran in panic from behind.

He stood at attention and saluted: "Report to the brigade commander, the 13th Regiment at the East Gate reports that the Chinese defenders have planted a large amount of explosives in the East Gate.

The 13th Wing lost more than 300 people and its morale suffered a severe setback! "

"Bagaya Road!" Riichiro Katayama roared angrily: "These damn Chinese people are absolutely disgusting!"

Takamori said in a terrified voice with lingering fear: "General, in view of my humble position, they attacked the south gate and west gate as feints.

The purpose is to attract us into the city, so as to ambush and severely damage the imperial army! "

Riichiro Katayama's expression changed for a while, and after the corners of his mouth twitched twice, he said in a deep voice: "Order the troops to temporarily stop the tentative attack.

Then quickly contact Takeshita Jun and ask him how Ximen is doing now. "

……

Ximen, Jun Takeshita's situation is very dangerous now.

Under Xu Qingfeng and other officers and soldiers of the Huben Battalion, Jun Takeshita's troops, who were not superior in firepower or numbers, were about to be driven out of their forward positions.

Located in the rearmost trench of the Japanese forward position at Ximen.

A second lieutenant of the Japanese army who fought side by side with Jun Takeshita, braved the bullets from the Huben camp and fired two shots outside the trench.

He lowered his head and anxiously said to Jun Takeshita: "Sir, we are about to lose our hold, so hurry up and ask the brigade commander for help."

"Obviously, the Chinese army on the opposite side is just a feint attack in the south of the city, and their real goal is to break through from the west gate."

Takeshita Jun said nothing with a dignified face, obviously he hasn't made up his mind yet.

The Japanese second lieutenant suddenly became anxious and continued to state his opinion: "Sir, judging from the terrain, to the south is Songhu and to the east is Suzhou.

The north of the city has been blocked by the imperial army. The defenders in the city can only have a chance of survival by breaking out to the west and rushing into the mountains to the west. "

Hearing this, Takeshita Jun was finally persuaded.

Immediately ordered to the second lieutenant: "Call General Katayama immediately, report the situation on our side truthfully, and ask for emergency reinforcements."

"Hai!" The Japanese second lieutenant received the order, turned around quickly, and hurriedly ran towards the command post behind.

……

At the south gate, Riichiro Katayama, Takashi Takamori and others had returned to their headquarters in disgrace.

Almost as soon as the two of them arrived at the headquarters, an adjutant who came back ahead of them hung up the phone in his hand.

He hurriedly turned around and saluted Katayama Riichiro: "Report to the brigade commander, Ximen is in emergency, Chief Takeshita is requesting emergency assistance."

"Nani?" Katayama Riichiro and Takamori Takashi couldn't help but be surprised.

"What is the situation at Ximen now? How could a special task force group under Jun Takeshita, an infantry group of the 18th Division, not be able to hold its position?"

The adjutant said with a bitter face: "General, the Ximen blockade troops have suffered two heavy losses in a row.

Before the battle begins tonight, there are less than five hundred combat troops left.

The defenders in the city concentrated a large amount of artillery fire and machine gun fire, and even fired flares, catching the troops in the west of the city by surprise.

Now they suffered heavy casualties and the situation was so critical that even Commander Takeshita Jun personally participated in the battle. "

"Commander of the brigade, judging from the current battle situation, the Chinese defenders in the city are most likely trying to break out from the west of the city!"

With that said, Takamori walked straight to the battle map, pointed at the map and turned to Riichiro Katayama and continued: "General, please see if Xu Qingfeng's troops can successfully break through from the west gate of Wujiang.

Then they will most likely flee westward and into the mountains.

At that time, it will not be so easy for us to encircle and suppress them. "

Katayama Riichiro heard the sound and came over, looked at the map and said thoughtfully: "Judging from the current battle situation and the actions of the defenders in the city.

It’s very possible! "

After speaking, he immediately ordered to the adjutant at the side: "Immediately mobilize troops and rush to help Ximen. The Chinese army must not be allowed to escape from Ximen."

The adjutant said bitterly: "Report to the brigade commander that our combat troops at the South Gate have less than 800 people left.

At this time, another batch of troops will be deployed to reinforce Ximen.

The defensive ability at the south gate will be greatly reduced.

In particular, the safety of you and the brigade headquarters, artillery and baggage troops will not be fully guaranteed. "

Katayama Riichiro just remembered that before the battle started, they had made statistics, and their combat strength at the south gate was only a thousand or so.

After the battle at the South Gate started, the shelling and feint fire of the Huben Battalion caused more than a hundred casualties to them.

Of the 500 people Takamori Takashi brought just now, more than 200 were killed in the bombing, leaving only 700 people left.

These forces are necessary to maintain the blockade of the south gate.

We also have to defend the brigade headquarters, artillery positions and baggage troops, which is already stretched thin.

Where are the extra troops to reinforce Takeshita Shun?

Seeing that Riichiro Katayama was in trouble, Takamori Takashi immediately suggested: "Commander of the brigade, for the current plan, we can only let the 13th Infantry Regiment of the East Gate and North Gate deploy troops to assist the West Gate. Their casualties should be Much smaller than us.”

Reinforcement was like putting out a fire, so Riichiro Katayama didn't have to think too much and directly asked his adjutant to get through the phone with the 13th Regiment Command Post.

Then he went up to the phone in person and reported to Okamoto on the other end of the phone: "Okamoto-kun, the Chinese defenders may break out from the west gate.

The Ximen blockade force is in urgent need. I don’t have enough troops. You must mobilize your troops immediately to help Ximen. Hurry! "

Unexpectedly, after Okamoto Yasuyuki heard the words, he was a little embarrassed: "General, to be honest, my troops at the east gate also suffered a lot of losses.

Now if troops are deployed to reinforce the west gate, the east gate will be short of troops. "

"It's just that Xu Qingfeng is cunning in using troops, and I feel that the blockade of the south gate and east gate cannot be relaxed for the time being.

Even if the tentative attack is not continued, the blockade must be maintained!

Otherwise, it is very likely that the defenders in the city will take advantage of it. "

Katayama Riichiro nodded in agreement. They had just suffered a big loss from the ambush. In a short period of time, they would not dare to enter the city through the east gate and south gate again.

However, it cannot be dismissed.

Therefore, the old devil, Colonel Okamoto Yasuyuki and others all turned their attention to the north gate.

Riichiro Katayama, who was eager to rescue troops, took the lead and asked: "How many troops do you still have at the North Gate?"
