Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 1244 The Last Solution (Second Update!)
I don't know if the chief of staff did it on purpose, but he came in just half an hour after the time he had agreed upon, with a very ugly expression on his face.

"Speak up! Don't hesitate or hide!" Lieutenant General Fujino said after taking a deep breath from his expression.

"Hi!" The chief of staff replied bravely.

"Division commander, just as you judged during the shelling, the troops suffered heavy casualties!"

"The three artillery strikes caused a total of more than 820 casualties. More than 650 people died directly or were not rescued in time. In addition, more than 170 people were injured and basically lost their combat effectiveness!"

"That is to say, after three artillery strikes, the Eighth Route Army killed our infantry brigade without losing a single soldier?" Although he was prepared in his heart, Fujino was still shocked by this number, and asked calmly.

"Yes!" the chief of staff affirmed.

Fujino was stunned for a long time without speaking, until the escort plane in the sky whizzed past his head, and he suddenly reacted.Then he stared at the chief of staff and continued to ask: "How many people in the army can continue to fight now!"

The chief of staff hurriedly replied: "There are more than 400 people. Two of the infantry brigades have basically remained at full strength because they have not participated in the battle. Each of them lost less than one squadron to one infantry brigade. The artillery that the troops were lucky enough to get back. And finally the Guards, with almost no casualties!"

Fujino immediately made a decision: "All the artillery will supplement the two infantry brigades, so that the two infantry brigades will be full. The extra troops will replenish the other brigade, so that this brigade will have two full squadrons!"

"Hi!" the chief of staff replied immediately.

"The humble job guarantees that the task will be completed within half an hour!"

Fujino then made a decision: "Then we will set off in half an hour!"

The heavy casualties of the troops made Fujino very cautious in the next use of troops.

Because the forward troops undertake the task of tentative attack and are the key attack targets of the Eighth Route Army, they are easily wiped out by the Eighth Route Army.Fujino directly reduced the forward force from an infantry squad to a combat unit.

"Buzzing..."

Amidst the roar of the huge engine, the silver-white plane was like a cannonball that fell from the sky, hitting the ground in a daze!
When there are still 500 meters from the ground, quickly raise your head and climb.At this moment, two bombs with a shrieking sound broke away from the restraint of the fuselage, followed the trajectory of the plane's dive just now, and continued to hit the ground.

"Boom..."

Two explosions sounded, and in the earth-shaking explosion, two strands of thick black smoke rose into the air.The huge fireball quickly spread to the surrounding area, covering the area of ​​tens of meters around the point of impact...

Six bombs were dropped in a row, and after the thick gunpowder smoke enveloped the entire position, the devil infantry began to attack.

An infantry squadron lined up in a skirmish line, armed with rifles, and under the cover of a dozen light and heavy machine guns behind them, quickly approached the Eighth Route Army's blocking position.

The crude bomb defense hole that was almost collapsed by the bombing, the deputy battalion commander of the Fourth Battalion got up from the ground with a face of pain.

Hearing the sound of warning shots from outside, he immediately shouted: "Anyone who can still move will follow me to fight devils!"

After finishing speaking, the deputy battalion commander raised a light machine gun, picked up three bullet magazines, and rushed out of the bomb hole!

When we entered the position in the morning, there were more than 400 people in a battalion. After repelling the devils' attack, after being attacked twice in a row, there are not even 150 people who can move now.

On the position where the trenches are no longer visible, more than 100 people are scattered in the crater.

"Shoot, fight off the little devils in front of us and we will retreat!" The deputy battalion commander shouted.

A light machine gun was set on the ground, and it fired at a devil leader a hundred meters away.

The bullets that swept towards him smashed the devil squad leader and a soldier beside him into a sieve on the spot.

"Da da da……"

At this moment, a shuttle of heavy machine gun bullets suddenly flew towards the deputy battalion commander.

Vigilant, he dropped his machine gun and fell into the crater, one of the bullets flew backwards almost clinging to his scalp.

Regardless of the sticky and bloody head that was bleeding out, holding the light machine gun, he touched a bullet crater beside him with a roll, and continued to shoot!

"Division commander, there are still many Eighth Route Army troops on the ground, and the casualties of the warriors have already reached half an infantry squad!" The chief of staff next to him reminded.

Fujino's face was gloomy and terrifying, and the powerful combat power of Xinyituan once again exceeded his imagination.

The air force bombed twice, and there were still people alive on the battlefield. Fujino couldn't figure out how they survived.

Reminded by the chief of staff, he gritted his teeth and replied: "I would rather use more aerial bombs to reduce the casualties. I ordered the attacking troops to retreat immediately, and the planes continued to bomb. I don't believe that the Eighth Route Army standing in front of me is made of iron. So many bombs fell down." Can't kill them!"

Half an hour later, Fujino finally took over the position that had been abandoned by the Fourth Battalion.

Just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, there were gunshots and explosions that he hated so much at this moment!
"Sir, there is still an Eighth Route Army blocking position ahead... The attacking troops have already retreated, but they still lost more than 20 imperial troops. They judged that there are at least [-] Eighth Route Army guarding the position, equipped with at least [-] light and heavy machine guns? "A communications soldier rushed over to report.

The chief of staff looked at Fujino, with a shocked expression on his face involuntarily.

"Division Commander, this is already the fourth blocking position we have encountered. Although the casualties in each position were not large, the total number of people still exceeds 200~"

"Moreover, it takes at least an hour for us to take down a position. It is almost noon now, and there are still positions blocking the front. I suspect that there are such blocking positions behind. Let us attack one by one, drag us here but It's getting dark, and then kill us!"

Fujino replied with a sullen face: "It's not doubt, it's affirmation!"

"Our opponent is too cunning. If we guess correctly, since we set off last night, we have stepped into this big trap they prepared for us step by step!"

"Bageyalu, we lost again against Xinyituan this time! They must have judged in advance that we plan to go to Taiyue, and then prepared this net here for us!"

"Then there is nothing we can do?" the chief of staff asked with a look of reluctance!
Fujino shook his head and replied helplessly: "With so many troops, it is impossible to take them to Taiyue in an organized way!"

"If you want to get rid of the Eighth Route Army Xinyi Regiment's siege and interception, now there is only one last way..."

The chief of staff hurriedly asked: "What way?"

"Scatter and break through..." Fujino gave a surprising answer!
"The strength of the new regiment here must not be many, otherwise they would never have just shelled and not attacked in the last few hours last night. Only when the troops are scattered can we take advantage of the shortcoming of the new regiment's limited strength and withdraw more from their base Lots of troops!"
