Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 1178 Killing two birds with one stone (first update!)

The headquarters of the Japanese Army Division in Linfen City.

As soon as a communications staff officer put down the phone, he hurriedly reported: "Division Commander, the Fifth Regiment of the Imperial Association Army reported that there were a large number of Eighth Route Army reconnaissance troops around their station. They were worried about the Eighth Route Army's conspiracy, and asked the Third Battalion not to go there. Retreat, they retreat by themselves!"

As soon as he finished speaking, another communication staff officer rushed in: "Sir, the third brigade called urgently. They were harassed and attacked by a small group of Eighth Route Army troops!"

"The opponent's forces are very scattered, and they can run away when they hit them. The air force can't attack them!"

"Division Commander: The Fourth Regiment of the Imperial Association Army reported that a large number of Eighth Route Army reconnaissance troops appeared around the station!" The communications staff officer who had just left rushed in again.

"The Second Battalion of the Imperial Army called urgently. They were also harassed and attacked by a small group of Eighth Route Army troops~"

The chief of staff showed a shocked expression on his face, and then replied: "Division commander, the Eighth Route Army's reaction is too fast!"

Seeing that Lieutenant General Fujino remained silent with a sullen face, the chief of staff immediately added: "Also, a large number of scouts were operating near the garrison of the fifth and fourth regiments of the Imperial Association Army. The imperial army of the three brigades was also attacked and attacked Harassment, is there any conspiracy in this!"

"Does the Xinyi Regiment want to launch a big battle around the two regiments of the Imperial Association Army!"

"There must be a conspiracy!" The sullen Lieutenant General Fujino finally spoke!

"The second and third brigades of the Imperial Army will need two to three hours to arrive at the Imperial Association Army's garrison, join them, and retreat together!"

"There are small units of the Eighth Route Army harassing and sneaking along the way, and the marching time will be increased by at least an hour!"

"If they find a way to hold us back for another two or three hours at the two regiments' stations, it will be dark!"

"The two brigades suffered heavy losses last night when they had perfect fortifications. If they were besieged by the Eighth Route Army in this area without fortifications, it would only take one night for the Eighth Route Army to kill them!"

Having said that, Fujino couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"Xinyituan has such a big appetite! Not only does it want to occupy this occupied area, but it also wants to eat all the imperial army and imperial association army in this occupied area!"

The chief of staff next to him immediately suggested: "I suggest that the two brigades should not join up, and retreat directly under the cover of aviation!"

"The life of the imperial army is more valuable than the life of the imperial association army. As long as the three brigades of the imperial army are safe and sound and return successfully. If the imperial association army is lost, it will be lost. As long as we have guns and food in our hands, we can form them at any time! "

"Yes, Chief of Staff, your awareness is good!" Lieutenant General Fujino was very satisfied with the Chief of Staff's answer.

"As long as the imperial army is kept, nothing else is a problem... For us now, the most important thing is the troops, and the imperial army!"

"Immediately issue an order: "Let them stop converging and retreat to the destination directly under the cover of the aviation force!" "

"Also, order the [-]th and [-]th Regiments of the Imperial Association Army to disperse the attack with the battalion as a unit, and find the main force of the Eighth Route Army active around them. Contact the air force and kill them!"

The chief of staff suddenly realized: "I understand, division chief, you want to use these imperial association troops to distract the Eighth Route Army's strength and attention!"

"Yes!" Lieutenant General Fujino affirmed.

"They were formed by the imperial army spending a lot of weapons, ammunition and food. Even if they have not formed combat effectiveness and are about to be killed by the Eighth Route Army, they must play a little role before they are killed. Otherwise, the imperial army spent a lot of effort on these two regiments. It's wasted!"

"I'm going to give the order now!" The chief of staff's eyes lit up, and he quickly replied.

As a senior officer in the Japanese army, he looked down on the Imperial Association Army from the bottom of his heart.As long as it can bring benefits to the imperial army, even if they know that these imperial association troops are going to die, they will not feel sad.

Soon, the chief of staff came back: "Division commander, the order has been issued. The two imperial army squads we placed in the Imperial Association Army reported that they will definitely supervise the battle of the Imperial Association Army and the Eighth Route Army to the end. However, I hope we will give them Airdrop some ammunition, mainly rifle bullets and grenades!"

"Give them!" Lieutenant General Fujino replied.

"With the imperial army supervising the battle, even if these imperial association troops have no combat effectiveness, they can still kill many eighth route armies!"

"However, you can't give them too much ammunition. Too much will end up costing the Eighth Route Army. Each regiment will give them [-] rounds of rifle ammunition and [-] grenades, which is enough for them to fight a battle!"

"The commander of the division is wise, and the humble job will arrange it now!" the chief of staff said with a look of admiration.

At six o'clock in the afternoon, after the devil's last cruising plane returned, all the Eighth Route Army hidden in various places appeared at once, and many people were ready to show their talents.

However, the devils from the three brigades had already ran tens of kilometers away, and everyone had no target even if they wanted revenge.

"Regimental Commander, the reconnaissance company of the three infantry brigades following the devil reported that the little devils of the three brigades retreated to these three points respectively. The devil has already launched the Imperial Association Army, and the common people have built a whole set of fortifications at these three points in advance. , the devils will enter the position as soon as they arrive..."

"Abandon the occupied area we are in, and concentrate our forces to defend Linfen in order to plan a counterattack in the future. This is the purpose of the devil's retreat in the afternoon!" Wang Ping stared at the map and analyzed seriously.

"The devil kills two birds with one stone!" Chief of Staff Zhong Chenggong analyzed.

"Although this occupied area is lost, their troops have been saved!"

"More importantly, they have more troops to defend Linfen and prevent us from infiltrating Linfen..."

Wang Ping shook his head and replied: "We also have benefits. If we take this occupied area, all the bases of our new regiment will be connected together. Also, Linfen City will also become an isolated city. The little devils in the city want to get food and ammunition Supplies, you have to ask if we agree or not!"

"Order, the fourth battalion of the main force, the new fourth battalion, and the independent fourth battalion, take down Lijia Town, Zhouzhuang, and Liangtian villages and towns overnight, and form a confrontation with the troops that the devils withdraw in the afternoon. We will not attack them. They don't want to fight back to the occupied area!"

"The soldiers lost in the three battalions will be directly recruited on the spot. Weapons and food will be drawn from this seizure!"

"Appointment, Zhou Xutian will be the acting battalion commander of the Seventh Battalion, the main force of the New First Regiment, and the Fifth Regiment of the Imperial Association Army will be reorganized directly into the Seventh Battalion. The regiment headquarters will make up for the heavy machine gun company, artillery company, and mountain artillery company that the army lacks in the future!"

"The Fourth Regiment of the Imperial Association Army was reorganized into the new seventh battalion, and Huang Cheng acted as the battalion commander~ The two action teams that were active in the vicinity were combined into an independent seventh battalion, and Xie Fucheng acted as the battalion commander. The chief of staff stayed in charge of the third battalion. The reorganization of the first battalion, after the reorganization is completed, the troops will be stationed in the surrounding villages and towns for training, as the fourth battalion, the new fourth battalion, the reserve force of the independent fourth battalion, to protect the base we just won!"

The headquarters of the Japanese Army Division in Linfen City was still very busy at twelve o'clock in the evening, and no one had a rest!

Looking at Fujino, whose face was exhausted and whose eyes were flushed because he hadn't rested for a long time, the chief of staff hesitated for a long time before speaking.

"Did the two regiments of the Imperial Association Army be killed by the Eighth Route Army?" Fujino asked after seeing the embarrassment on the chief of staff's face.

"Hi!" Fujino, who was embarrassed for a few seconds, quickly replied.

"We lost all contact with the two regiments, the whole army must have been wiped out!"

"They have been able to persist for such a long time. They have played very well. If it is gone, it will be gone. You are in charge, chief of staff, and reorganize the fourth and fifth regiments of the Imperial Association Army!" Lieutenant General Fujino comforted himself.

The chief of staff quickly replied: "Tomorrow I will issue an order to reorganize these two regiments!"
