Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 1242 Despair (third update!)
"The Eighth Route Army did not retreat directly after turning around, but turned to other directions and continued to charge forward!" The lieutenant replied hesitantly.

Fujino raised his eyebrows and realized: "Bageyalu, the purpose of this Eighth Route Army is not to attack, but to cut flesh!"

"Separate some troops from us, and concentrate our forces to kill the troops they have separated!"

The lieutenant suddenly reacted: "Sir, in this case, at least one of our infantry brigades will be divided by them!"

"Let them get closer to the main force immediately. Once they become a lone army, and there is no rapid-fire gun, they can only be massacred in front of the armored troops of the Eighth Route Army, and there is no other way of life!" Lieutenant General Fujino ordered calmly.

At this moment, Lieutenant General Fujino has only one idea: Hurry up to dawn, the aviation soldiers will come over sooner...

In this kind of battlefield where he can't control the situation of the battle, he has no confidence at all.

At four o'clock in the morning, a news that made him extremely painful was finally uttered by the radio operator.

"Division Commander, the two brigades in front have sent farewell telegrams. There is less than one squadron around the headquarters that can still fight. The Eighth Route Army is attacking them from all directions. They are ready to die for His Majesty the Emperor!"

"boom……"

Fujino suddenly clenched his fist and slammed it hard at the ammunition box beside him.

From the twitching expression on his face, it can be seen that the smash must have been very painful, but Fujino finally endured it.

Just as he was about to speak, a lieutenant with injuries on his body rushed in, and then fell directly on the ground. The injuries must be very serious!
The two guards hurried over to help him up. After a long time, the lieutenant endured the pain from his wound and reported, "Sir, it's over!"

"The troops divided by the armored troops of the Eighth Route Army are finished. Only one squadron reacted quickly and broke out in time. The others all died under their attack... It's too miserable. Many warriors were directly blown to pieces, or were killed by armored vehicles. It was crushed into a meat paste with the tank, and not even a complete corpse was left!"

Seeing the frightened expression on the lieutenant's face, Fujino knew without asking that this person must have escaped from the battlefield.

The tragedy on the battlefield has already formed a shadow in his heart, creating fear from the bottom of his heart!

Lieutenant General Fujino's flushed face turned pale at this moment.

The heavy casualties made him feel desperate, and he hesitated for a long time before answering: "That is to say, plus the casualties caused by the Eighth Route Army's split troops, we lost another full-staffed infantry brigade in just a few hours!"

"It should be more than that!" The chief of staff really didn't want to talk at this time, but as the chief of staff, he had to let the head of the division remain rational and understand his own strength, so he hesitated for a long time before answering bravely.

Fujino's cold eyes shifted to him all of a sudden.

The chief of staff immediately felt a chill coming from the front. If he guessed correctly, this chill happened to be Fujino's gaze looking at him.

At this moment, he regretted it.

But there is no medicine for regret in this world, so I can only answer with Fujino's eyes on me.

"Combining the casualties caused by their armored raids, an infantry brigade should be about the same. But, division commander, you forgot the 10-minute shelling before the armored raids."

"More than a thousand shells fell on the middle of our troops. Even if we evaded, the casualties would not be much less!"

"Judgementally, the casualties should be no less than two squadrons."

Lieutenant General Fujino said nothing with a sullen face, but silence is also the best answer.

The atmosphere in the temporary headquarters suddenly became depressed, and everyone lowered their heads and did not speak.

The uninterrupted gunfire outside the headquarters sounded particularly clear and piercing at this moment.

When the chief of staff was hesitating whether to open his mouth to ease the atmosphere, the piercing whistle of shells came from far to near, and then reached the headquarters again.

"Bombardment, a new round of shelling by the Eighth Route Army has begun!"

Fujino's already pale face became even paler at this time.

In the first half of the night, it was raided by the armored troops of the Eighth Route Army and lost more than 500 people.In the second half of the night, nearly three infantry brigades were divided and surrounded by the Eighth Route Army, and the loss reached nearly 3000 people.This means that the strength in his hands is a little more than 3000.

Even if this force reaches Taiyue, its effect is very limited.

But even so, the surrounding Eighth Route Army still didn't intend to let him go.

"Division commander, the Eighth Route Army seems to have concentrated all the artillery on our side. There are at least twenty mountain artillery pieces, ten infantry artillery pieces, and twenty mortar artillery pieces!" The artillery staff officer next to him analyzed!
"According to the Eighth Route Army's style of play, at least 1 shells will be fired in the trenches every minute!"

"Don't they even have enough bullets? Where did so many shells come from to attack us!"

Fujino had this question for a long time, and there was no need for the artillery staff to remind him.

After glaring at the other party, he replied: "Is it meaningful to discuss these now? What I want is a solution, how can we minimize the casualties of the warriors!"

The artillery staff officer shook his head and replied: "Incompetent in a humble position..."

"We have run out of shells, there is no way to fight back, we can only be beaten passively!"

"The only way to reduce casualties is to disperse the troops as much as possible, so that the lethality of the shells can be minimized!"

"Then what are you still doing in a daze? Why don't you give orders right away. I don't want our troops to be killed by the Eighth Route Army before the aviation soldiers come over!" Fujino ordered, suppressing the anger rising in his stomach.

On the top of the mountain where Yan Song and Rongjun were, they were very excited to see the devils at the foot of the mountain being bombed by shells.

But after the excitement, the two of them showed helpless expressions on their faces.

The casualties of the troops in the two major battles just now were too great.

Despite the absolute superiority of artillery fire, there is armored vehicle cover.However, the little devil is really too ruthless.

After knowing that he can't survive, as long as he has a breath, he will detonate the grenade and die with his troops.

On the battlefield completely shrouded in darkness, no matter how carefully the attacking troops searched, it was impossible to guarantee that all the little devils under their feet would be killed.

Therefore, on the way to attack, there were constant explosions among the attacking troops.

It wasn't the shells fired by the little devils, but the grenades they detonated!
In the violent explosion, the soldiers scattered around were either killed or injured. The loss was very large, and the attacking troops were completely defenseless!

After the two battles of encirclement and annihilation, the casualties caused by the devils detonating the grenades were greater than those caused by the frontal attack, and they were much larger. These were not expected by the two battalion commanders!
