The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

Chapter 1272 Deputy Commander, the Kwantung Army dare not divide its troops (second update)

"retreat……"

I don’t know how long it took, but Lieutenant General Nagata seemed to have made up a great determination. He gritted his teeth and ordered with helplessness on his face.

The chief of staff was waiting for this sentence. He was afraid that the division commander would betray his promise, so he quickly accepted the order: "The division commander is wise..."

"I am humble enough to give orders now..."

After saying that, he rushed out of the command center without even looking back.

The tank's attack capability is too strong and its assault speed is also fast. Once they enter Gu'an County, some troops will be pushed inside the city and unable to leave. They will be chased and killed by the Eighth Route Tank Troops, and they will pay a lot of effort. Some unnecessary costs.

In order to minimize losses, the chief of staff issued very strict military orders to the troops in the city.

Throw away all unnecessary baggage and ammunition, move forward lightly, and evacuate Gu'an County from the north of the city as quickly as possible to the direction of Peiping.

…………

The former enemy headquarters of the Eighth Route Army in Yizhong.

Faced with the good news that flew into the headquarters like snowflakes, Li Yunlong's face lit up with joy.

"Xiao Huang... We captured the more than 3,000 Kwantung Army troops who attacked the Second Heavy Artillery Regiment... The Second Battalion of the Armored Regiment is marching to Gu'an County, and together with the Third Armored Battalion, we will attack the little Japs there..." Li Yunlong smiled and said the good news he had just received.

Huang Yu took out another victory report: "The more than 3,000 Kwantung Army troops who attacked the 1st Heavy Artillery Regiment have less than 2,000 left. They are being chased by the 1st Battalion of the Armored Regiment and the cavalry troops, and are fleeing towards the Great North Slope. ”

"Our troops defending the Great Northern Slope are ready for battle..."

"If nothing else happens, in two hours, this group of Kwantung Army will be wiped out by us on the Great North Slope."

"Easy..." The smile on Li Yunlong's face became even wider.

"Damn it, I haven't fought as neatly as tonight in a long time."

"The arrogant elite of the Kwantung Army was actually chased and beaten by our Eighth Route Army on the battlefield one day..."

"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed that our Eighth Route Army would be so powerful in combat."

"Xiao Huang..."

"This is all thanks to you..."

"You kid set up a stage to let me, Lao Li, have a great victory..."

"Chief...good news..." When Li Yunlong was about to continue speaking, the exclamation from the operator suddenly sounded in the command headquarters.

The only one who has no contact now is the 3rd Battalion of the Armored Regiment attacking Gu'an County. After hearing what the operator said was good news, Li Yunlong's eyes lit up and he immediately asked: "Could it be that the 3rd Battalion of the Armored Regiment has already captured Gu'an County..."

The radio operator was happy to report: "The Armored Regiment Battalion Commander Zhou reported..."

"Less than half an hour after they stormed Gu'an County, the little Japs stationed in the city ran away from the north gate of the county. They didn't even bring their supplies and ammunition, and they all dumped them in the city..."

Li Yunlong looked at Huang Yu with a hint of admiration, and couldn't help but sigh: "Xiao Huang..."

"You really guessed it right..."

"The Kwantung Army does not have the courage to fight us decisively in Gu'an County..."

"They are worried that a full division will be wiped out by us and lose face..."

"I originally thought that the raid we launched would only capture but not gain anything."

"Now the little devils are voluntarily abandoning Gu'an County and throwing away all the supplies and ammunition they have hoarded in the county."

"Perhaps the ammunition baggage we seized can make up for all the ammunition destroyed tonight." "Although the Kwantung Army did not carry reserve ammunition baggage when it entered North China, it still carried a lot of ammunition baggage with the army."

"Based on two hundred rounds of ammunition for one soldier, a main division of the Kwantung Army has at least five million rounds of ammunition."

"Excluding those used on the battlefield and those carried by the Japanese troops when they broke out, it would be no problem to seize two to three million rounds."

"Moreover, the Kwantung Army stationed in Gu'an County is equipped with dozens of tanks and armored vehicles. There must be a lot of fuel and ammunition for tanks in the city."

"Now that this tank force has been wiped out by us on the Dabei Slope battlefield, the ammunition and fuel they stored in Gu'an County belong to us."

"Call back to Battalion Commander Zhou immediately: Take over Gu'an County immediately and count all the baggage and ammunition dropped by the Japanese army in Gu'an City."

"Also give an order to the 2nd Battalion of the Armored Regiment..."

"Let them march quickly to Gu'an County and cooperate with Battalion Commander Zhou..."

"The last telegram is to the commander."

"Let him immediately dispatch all the transport vehicles available in the base area and march quickly to Gu'an County to deliver the loot."

"If you don't have enough cars, use big trucks to transport them. If you fight hard, you won't leave a bullet for the little devil."

"Commander..."

After giving the order, Li Yunlong was just about to say a few words of emotion to express his current excitement, when another operator from the headquarters ran towards him.

Compared with the previous operator, the expression on his face was much more serious, and it was obvious that what he brought was not good news.

Without waiting for Li Yunlong to speak, he hurriedly reported: "The reconnaissance force monitoring the other two Kwantung Army divisions near the battlefield has just sent a telegram..."

"The two divisions each sent a reinforced brigade to march towards the battlefield..."

"Equipped with a large number of tanks and artillery, we can reach the Great Northern Slope in four hours at the latest..."

Li Yunlong became anxious when he heard this, and cursed with a look of displeasure on his face: "You son of a bitch, they came at the wrong time."

"Even if Kong Jie gathers large vehicles at the base and rushes to Gu'an County to transfer the loot, it will still take six or seven hours to evacuate Gu'an..."

"If the Kwantung Army reinforcements arrive on the battlefield in four hours, in order to avoid a decisive battle with them, we have to abandon Gu'an County in advance and abandon the ammunition and baggage that the little devils left in the city..."

"Xiao Huangqian's mind works very fast. Hurry up and find a way for me to get at least three hours..."

"Otherwise the cooked duck will fly away from our mouths."

Huang Yu analyzed while looking at the map: "We can only find ways to slow down the Japanese army's march..."

"I suggest that the cavalry be sent up with more explosives and grenades to destroy the only way for the Japanese army to reinforce the Dabei Slope battlefield..."

Li Yunlong thought Huang Yu had some tricks up his sleeve, but when he heard that it turned out to be the most commonly used method of destroying kilometers by the Eighth Route Army, a look of disappointment immediately flashed on his face, and he replied: "It's useless..."

"Although the Japs have heavy artillery, they also have chariot troops and two infantry regiments working together."

"Even if we blow up the road, the Japanese infantry and chariot troops can continue to advance and march quickly to reinforce Dabei Slope..."

Huang Yu responded with a confident expression: "Deputy Commander, don't worry, the Japanese reinforcements do not dare to let the infantry and chariot troops set off first and march urgently to reinforce the Dabei Slope battlefield."

Li Yunlong was confused when he heard this, and asked with confusion on his face: "Why..."

"The little devil's reinforcements are strong, so why don't they dare to arrange for the infantry and chariot troops to attack the battlefield first, and the artillery troops to attack the battlefield later..."
