Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 933 Terrible opponent (second update!)
The captain of the 136th regiment has been staring at the battlefield since the beginning of the battle,

In the current battle, he didn't expect to kill the main force of the new regiment at once, even if he could kill a main battalion, even a main force company of the new regiment in one battle, he would be satisfied.

Therefore, he must always pay attention to the movement of the battlefield, and judge according to the actual situation of the battlefield, whether he still needs to send troops to Xiongcun, or provide artillery support to the encirclement and suppression troops.

"Rumble..."

Seeing that the attacking troops were about to rush to Xiongcun, and the troops had already deployed, they were about to encircle the attacking troops of the Eighth Route Army that had already entered Xiongcun.An untimely explosion suddenly reached his ears.

The sound of the explosion was not very violent, even a little weak. Under the cover of the gunfire from Xiongcun, it was difficult to distinguish.

However, as a battle-tested veteran, the co-captain could tell right away.

"Where is it being attacked again... Can anyone tell me where the sound of the cannon came from!" The regimental captain glanced at his subordinates and asked with a frown.

In an instant, many people had puzzled expressions on their faces.

Undoubtedly, there are few people here who can distinguish a different sound of guns from the chaos of guns like the captain of the regiment.

The artillery staff officer of the regiment headquarters, a veteran who had been an artilleryman for five or six years, glanced at the map laid out on the table behind him and replied: "Sir, the artillery sound came from the direction of Zhoucun, where there is a checkpoint of the third brigade. One reinforced squad. The explosion just now can only be produced by at least three mortar shells exploding at the same time!"

"The defense area of ​​the third brigade..." the captain rushed directly to the side of the map.

Just glanced at Zhoucun's position on the map, his face turned pale, and then he shouted.

"It's not good... We were fooled by the Eighth Route Army's trick of attacking east and west..."

"Contact the third brigade immediately and tell them not to attack Xiongcun! Return immediately and reinforce Zhoucun. The real direction for the Eighth Route Army to break through is Zhoucun!"

It wasn't until then that the subordinates around reacted, but there were still subordinates who didn't believe the captain's judgment, and frowned and reminded: "Sir, could there be a mistake..."

"The Eighth Route Army has used three mortars, two infantry guns, and several heavy machine guns here. This is the firepower that only the main force can have. There are only three mortars in the direction of Zhoucun, which is nothing compared to here. Sex. Could it be that the Eighth Route Army has set up a suspicious formation, and their real breakthrough direction is still here!"

The wing captain hesitated, but within seconds he made up his mind.

"This is not a suspicious formation, it is a slap in the face...Immediately execute the order, contact the third brigade, and let them return to help immediately, if it is too late, it will be too late!"

Seeing that the doubts on the faces of several subordinates did not disappear, the regiment leader followed up and analyzed: "It doesn't matter even if the shelling just now was caused by the Eighth Route Army's suspicion. We have already killed half of the infantry brigade in Xiongcun. If we cannot stop the Eighth Route Army from breaking through, we can continue to send troops there, and we can also provide them with artillery support!"

After waiting anxiously for half an hour, the adjutant finally rushed over with a telegram.

"Sir, the Third Brigade sent an urgent call... By the time they arrived at Zhoucun, the Fourth Squadron of the Third Brigade had already taken back Zhoucun!"

"Take back Zhoucun? In other words, Zhoucun was once occupied by the Eighth Route Army. Call them back immediately. I want to know how long the Eighth Route Army occupied Zhoucun, and how many people they used to break out from Zhoucun during this time!" After discovering the key words in the telegram, he stared at the adjutant and asked back.

"They have reported it in the telegram!" The adjutant replied cautiously.

"The Eighth Route Army occupied Zhoucun for about 10 minutes. According to the report of the Fourth Squadron of the Third Battalion, no more than one battalion of the Eighth Route Army broke through the encirclement. Moreover, they also wiped out nearly two platoons of the Eighth Route Army during the battle..."

"Bastard~ They managed to break through the siege...they broke through such a tight blockade..." the captain clenched his fists and cursed loudly regardless of his identity.

Perhaps in order to quench the wrath of the captain, the adjutant hesitated and continued to report: "The first squadron has also returned... They also wiped out nearly two platoons of the Eighth Route Army in Xiongcun, and captured two infantry artillery. However, These two infantry artillery were blown up by the Eighth Route Army at the last moment!"

"Also, the Fourth Squadron of the Third Brigade reported that the Eighth Route Army that broke out was not equipped with infantry artillery, mountain artillery and other heavy weapons because of the urgent time to break out?"

Surprisingly, the captain's anger didn't dissipate, but intensified...

Staring at the adjutant, he cursed, "What good news is this~"

"Not counting the reinforcements, we lost two reinforcement teams with just two checkpoints, more than 100 people. The loss is almost the same as the casualties of the Eighth Route Army, or even more. What is there to be happy about!"

"Also, the Eighth Route Army gave up even two infantry artillery in order to break through. You think this is a helpless move by the Eighth Route Army. It has to do this in order to survive. Some people even think that if they lose even the artillery, the Eighth Route Army will break through the encirclement. Success is also a lost dog, nothing to worry about..."

"What I'm going to tell you is that I think the exact opposite!"

"The infantry artillery is a well-deserved heavy weapon for the Eighth Route Army, and it is a treasure. At the critical moment, they took out the infantry artillery as bait to confuse us and create opportunities for their main force to break through. Then they blew up the two infantry artillery at the critical moment gun."

"This not only means that the battle just now was not a helpless act of the Eighth Route Army's breakout troops, but also means that it was a premeditated breakout by the Eighth Route Army."

"They can cut off their wrists and give up two infantry guns. I can be sure that their commanders are very decisive, smart, and brain-dead!"

"Now that they have run to our rear 7 times, not only will they not become a rout, but they will also become the trump card of the Eighth Route Army. At the critical moment, they will give us a fatal attack! Threatening our rear and logistics supply lines!"

The captain's words were so deafening that everyone around lowered their arrogant heads.

Ignoring everyone's reactions, he directly ordered: "Send a telegram to the division headquarters immediately. The battle situation just now must be reported truthfully. In the end, I would like to ask the division commander to strengthen the troops and firepower of the remaining troops, and take advantage of the breakthrough. The Eighth Route Army's foothold is not stable, kill them!"

Lieutenant General Ito paid more attention to the Eighth Route Army breaking through behind them than his subordinates.

The reason why I formed such a tight encirclement was to push forward layer by layer to wipe out the entire Eighth Route Army base area.It is to completely wipe out the main force of the Eighth Route Army in the jurisdiction through a sweep.

If the raids in front of him had just ended, and the Eighth Route Army returned to those places to continue to develop troops and form base areas, then the raids would be meaningless to the Eighth Route Army.

After receiving the telegram, he ordered the chief of staff to organize a reinforced brigade to return to aid on the spot, and together with the remaining troops, kill the first battalion to prevent future troubles.

Two days later, the main force of the division under the personal command of Lieutenant General Ito was less than [-] kilometers away from Xiangfen City.It can be killed outside Xiangfen City in one day at the latest.

Since yesterday, the devil's cruising plane has been cruising back and forth over Xiangfen City.

The roar of the huge engine, and a shell dropped by the Devil's plane from time to time... all made the atmosphere of the new regiment's former enemy headquarters more and more solemn.
