Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 962 Pursuing Death (First Update!)

After waiting for an hour, Lieutenant General Ito was just about to return to the armored vehicle and move on, when the chief of staff rushed over.

"Division commander, the 136th regiment sent an urgent call: The road they were advancing was also destroyed by the Eighth Route Army, because the troops brought heavy artillery and vehicles, and the damaged road must be completely repaired before they can move forward..."

"He also reported that if the road ahead was destroyed by the Eighth Route Army, even if there was no attack by the Eighth Route Army, it would take a lot of time to build the road. The time to meet us may be delayed until this afternoon, or even at night!"

"The troops stop advancing!" Lieutenant General Ito ordered with a frown.

As soon as he stepped into the armored vehicle, he retracted his front heels, and then analyzed: "The Eighth Route Army is too cunning, and they plan to use the same method to consume us!"

"The longer the two troops are separated, the greater our losses will be under the sneak attack of the Eighth Route Army! Only by bringing the two troops together can we hold together and withdraw from their base with minimal casualties under the sneak attack of the Eighth Route Army .”

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the 136th Wing, which had built a road, finally dragged dozens of artillery pieces and joined Lieutenant General Ito.

"Division Commander, there is still one hour before the air force will return to the voyage... The 136th Regiment is already very tired after a day's journey, or we will camp here tonight, rest for a night, replenish our strength, and continue in the daytime tomorrow." Forward!" the chief of staff ordered after glancing at the watch on his wrist.

"Yes!" Lieutenant General Ito was in a very good mood.

The arrival of the 136th regiment brought the strength of his troops to 7000 at once, and he had all kinds of artillery.

Coupled with the armored vehicles he brought out and the cover of aviation, Lieutenant General Ito is confident that he can rampage in the Eighth Route Army base again.

At that moment, Lieutenant General Ito really had the idea of ​​leading his troops to fight back in his mind.

Last night, although the Eighth Route Army's attack caused a lot of losses to the division, the troops who died in the battle were not vegetarians. The guns in their hands were not fire sticks. They must have caused a lot of casualties to the Eighth Route Army before they died.

At this time, he suddenly led his troops back, and if he didn't do it, he could catch them by surprise.

However, it didn't take long for this idea to appear in his mind before it was rejected by himself.

The troops lost too much, he didn't dare to gamble!
If the Eighth Route Army was prepared when I went back, among other things, the sneak attacks and harassment along the way by the Eighth Route Army alone would have caused me heavy losses.

Moreover, the Eighth Route Army is too cunning, and they hold a lot of trump cards that I don't know about. With the heavy artillery that I just captured from my hand, it is possible to seize the opportunity to fight back.

After much deliberation, Lieutenant General Ito still felt that he would withdraw from the base of the Eighth Route Army as soon as possible to keep his own troops.

In this siege, I don't know how to explain the current losses of the division to the front army. If there are any losses, then I can only go on the road of apologizing and apologizing!

After hesitating for a while, he replied: "Yes, but tonight the troops must strengthen their guard ~ Artillery, infantry, and armored troops must have one-third of the troops on alert at any time. Once attacked by the Eighth Route Army, immediately counterattack and reduce losses. Reduce to the minimum!"

In a forest five kilometers away, soldiers from the new regiment marching in platoons rushed to meet here one after another.

Guard Battalion, Third Battalion, New Third Battalion, Assault Battalion...

Although more than half of the soldiers were lost, there were nearly 500 people in total.

More importantly, the equipment they brought was very good, and there were as many as 36 light mortars in total.

Looking at the several battalion commanders who were eager to try, the Chief of Staff Zhong Chenggong also looked forward to it.

Compared with before, Zhong Chenggong at this time is not only more confident, but also more composed.

"Comrades are all here. Let's have a meeting now to decide how to deal with the little devils in front of us tonight~" Zhong Chenggong said straight to the point.

"The guard battalion came here first, and they have already detected the enemy's situation~ All the devils in front of us add up to 7000 people, including two artillery brigades, a mountain artillery squadron, a rapid-fire artillery squadron, an armored vehicle squadron, and all the remaining infantry , more than 5000 people!"

"The task given to us by the regiment headquarters is to capture and destroy all the heavy equipment of the Devil's artillery brigade and armored vehicle unit alive. If possible, destroy some of their infantry. This will only benefit our next operation, and will not harm us!"

"The devil's security is very strict. It's getting dark now, and the troops still need time to prepare. I'll speak out my ideas first, and you can give your opinions, and then implement them directly!"

"Chief of Staff, give the order!" Several battalion commanders replied in unison.

They have all seen the progress of the chief of staff, and now they are not only convinced of Zhong's success, but also admire him.

Zhong Chenggong hesitated for a moment before answering: "It's still the old way, using mortars to sneak attack the devils from a long distance, force the devils to send troops, and beat them to attack the troops!"

"However, tonight I'm going to make some changes to the old way!"

"We have artillery, and so do the devils, and there are more of them than us. Therefore, I plan to divide my troops into multiple groups, and attack the devils' garrison together from different directions, so that their artillery wants to fight back but doesn't know where to choose to fight back. This will not only kill the devils, It can also minimize casualties, and more importantly, launch a sneak attack from all directions, and it can also cause panic to the devils, creating a posture that we want to attack them aggressively!"

"There are a total of twelve companies in the four battalions. If some infantry companies have fewer troops, you can strengthen them with your own guards and direct troops."

"I will equip each of your companies with a mortar platoon and three mortars, each with [-] rounds of shells, and attack the Japanese garrison separately?"

"While dispersing, we must not forget to cooperate with each other. All the sneak attack troops use the battalion as the unit. Each of you battalion commanders will command the three-way sneak attack troops and find ways to kill more devils. Of course, for insurance, each of you The battalion commander can also leave a reserve team in his hand to prevent accidents!"

"The attack will be launched on time at nine o'clock in the evening, and the attack will end at five o'clock in the morning. All of them will gather here to rest and replenish their strength!"

"For a total of eight hours of attack time, I hope that each battalion of you can kill two hundred little devils and force the devils to give up all the heavy weapons in their hands in order to hurry!"

"Boom boom boom..."

As soon as the time came, three explosions sounded in the Japanese garrison.

Immediately afterwards, more and more shells hit the Japanese military garrison.

In less than half a minute, the Japanese garrison was full of fireballs flying into the air. The garrison was quiet just now, but it suddenly became chaotic.

Lieutenant General Ito was also moved by the guards to a relatively safe slope behind in the chaos.
