Chapter 1330 Okamura Ningji's Judgment (Second Update!)

1341
"Very well, I just like your confidence!" The commander-in-chief praised without hesitation.

Then he stared at the deputy commander and ordered: "Since Wang Ping is ready, shall we start the counterattack?"

"Tell that old devil Neji Okamura that our Eighth Route Army is no longer what it used to be. It's not like a few years ago when we could only passively fight against them. Now we have the ability to take the initiative to attack!"

"I also really want to see what kind of expression this old devil Neji Okamura will have in a few days time!" the deputy commander replied with a smile on his face.

Two days later, at twelve o'clock in the evening, the headquarters of the North China Front Army of the Japanese Army in Beiping was still brightly lit, and more than a dozen staff officers came in and out, sending in a steady stream of information and battle situations.

Next to the huge combat sand table, several staff officers were also very busy, constantly displaying information and battle situations on the sand table for the commander's reference.

"Bageya Road, how could the situation change so quickly!"

"The imperial army clearly has an absolute advantage in the daytime battle. As long as there is another day tomorrow, the imperial army can take down the headquarters of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei base under the cover of aviation."

"Who can tell us where the Eighth Route Army that is attacking us came from!"

The chief of staff next to him hesitated and reminded: "Commander, the frontline troops report that the Eighth Route Army's offensive is getting more and more fierce, and mountain artillery and large-caliber mortars have also been used. The casualties of the troops are very heavy. So far, at least the loss The strength of a battalion of infantry!"

Neji Okamura scolded with a sullen face: "Bageyalu, the Eighth Route Army is going to wipe out our attacking troops!"

"Is it possible to break out, or is there any troops nearby that can immediately reinforce them!"

"No!" The chief of staff shook his head and replied.

"They went too far into the base of the Eighth Route Army, and the nearest reinforcements are nearly [-] kilometers away. They will definitely not be able to arrive before dark!"

Neiji Okamura gritted his teeth and continued to ask, "Is there any possibility of breaking through?"

"Difficult!" replied the chief of staff.

"There are too many Eighth Route Army gathered around them, and they have already surrounded them. If we break through rashly, we will turn defense into offense, and the casualties and losses of the troops will be even greater!"

"Then stick to it!" Okamura Neiji answered bravely.

"Order them to stick to their positions until dawn!"

"Contact the aviation army, as long as there are conditions for take-off, immediately dispatch the aviation army to reinforce the battlefield!"

As soon as one staff officer entered the war room, the other staff rushed in hastily.

"Your Excellency, Commander, our troops attacking the Taihang base of the Eighth Route Army have been attacked and are now surrounded!"

"The Eighth Route Army dispatched large-caliber heavy artillery, and the troops suffered heavy casualties. Prepare to break through!"

Neji Okamura had a sullen face before he could speak, another communications staff officer rushed in with a telegram in his hand: "Your Excellency, our logistics supply Yangquan near the Taihang base of the Eighth Route Army has been attacked, and the Eighth Route Army has dispatched at least one division. There are mountain artillery and heavy artillery, and the firepower is very powerful!"

"The Yangquan garrison reported that the city walls of Yangquan had been blown down by heavy artillery from the Eighth Route Army, and the troops suffered heavy casualties."

"The Eighth Route Army's offensive troops have entered Yangquan, and the garrison is fighting with them in the streets. Let us prepare for Yangquan to miss!"

At this time, the deputy chief of staff who had just left broke in directly, his face was very ugly, and there was a trace of panic!
"Your Excellency, Commander, the SJZ garrison reports that a large number of Eighth Route Army troops have appeared near the SJZ, and many outposts have already been attacked!"

"The Eighth Route Army attacking them seems to have heavy artillery..."

"Currently, the exposed troops have exceeded one division!"

Neiji Okamura was not calm anymore, he strode to the sand table and found SJZ on the sand table!

Soon, a very bold guess came out of Neiji Okamura's mind.His face turned pale, and he shouted, "I see, the Eighth Route Army's sudden counterattack is aimed at SJZ!"

"They plan to attack SJZ!" The chief of staff was startled, and asked back with a look of disbelief!
"It's not impossible!" Neiji Okamura replied calmly.

"If I remember correctly, the Eighth Route Army parade will start in less than ten days!"

"Military parade can indeed show strength, but what really shows strength is record!"

"If the Eighth Route Army can win the important town of SJZ, and cooperate with the military parade they are going to hold, then the purpose of the Eighth Route Army to show off its muscles will be completely achieved. Everyone knows that the Eighth Route Army is not what it used to be..."

The chief of staff, who had been staring at the map, suddenly said.

"Commander, there is really such a possibility!"

"Look at Yangquan, which happens to be stuck between Taiyuan and SJZ. It is an important material transfer point between the two places. Once it is captured by the Eighth Route Army, the imperial army in Shanxi will have no way to reinforce SJZ!"

"Also, in order to attack the Eighth Route Army's Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei base area and Jizhong base area, the garrisons around the SJZ have been emptied by us!"

"The Eighth Route Army must have taken a fancy to the emptiness of troops around SJZ, and then decided to attack SJZ. By taking down SJZ, they showed their strong fighting power!"

The chief of staff's analysis made Ningji Okamura more convinced of his judgment just now.

Frowning, he stared at the chief of staff and asked, "If you stick to it, how long can SJZ keep it?"

"There must be no problem in three days!" The chief of staff replied confidently.

"Although there are not many SJZ garrisons, the city defenses are very strong. And there are a large number of expatriates stationed in the city, at least two thousand expatriates can be armed to assist the troops in defense!"

"Although the Eighth Route Army has heavy artillery, the number is definitely not many."

"As soon as it's dawn, we send planes to blow up those artillery pieces, and the Eighth Route Army can only use the old method to attack SJZ through exhaustion!"

"At that time, we will have greater confidence in keeping SJZ!"

Neiji Okamura shook his head and replied, "It's not as easy as you think!"

"Ordinary mountain artillery is a treasure in the hands of the Eighth Route Army, let alone heavy artillery!"

"Even if our plane passes by at dawn, it will not be so easy to destroy those artillery!"

"So, if you want to keep SJZ, you must rely on external forces!"

"Immediately send a telegram to Taiyuan, asking them to deploy a mixed brigade and regiment, and rush eastward to reinforce the SJZ!"

"Yangquan must be kept. After dawn, send planes to reinforce Yangquan. Even if Yangquan is occupied by the Eighth Route Army, I must take it back!"

"The mopping-up troops that entered the Eighth Route Army's base areas will retreat across the board under the cover of aviation after dawn."

"This time, I will kill the Eighth Route Army attacking SJZ and teach them a lesson!"
