In this way, the life channel of the Longhai Railway Line is much safer.

With China's decisive and orderly abandoning the Xuzhou area, although the Japanese army was pressing step by step in the Xuzhou area, they were at a disadvantage on other battlefields.

The offensives of several Japanese troops on the southern line of the Jinpu Road were bent. The Niudaoman Detachment of the Japanese 6th Division fought fiercely with our defenders for more than ten days, but still failed to conquer.

The Japanese army suffered at least 2,000 casualties in Yongcheng, and under the harassment and attacks of guerrillas, it was difficult for the Japanese army to replenish ammunition.

The trauma caused to the Japanese army by the Honorary Division in Nanjing was too great. It not only caused the Japanese army to lose tens of thousands of elite troops, but also seriously filed off their sharpness.

The newly added soldiers are obviously inferior to the previous veterans in terms of combat effectiveness and fighting will.

The combat effectiveness of the Japanese army in central China has a significant decline.

As one goes up and down, it is very difficult for the Japanese army to make a breakthrough in the short term. Kenji Doihara is a very smart person, so he would not believe what Takahashi Hiroshi said.

If he really believed Hiroshi Takahashi, he would be a gunman for Shinroku Hata. If he went south, it would be like helping the Japanese army in China to contain most of the elite Chinese army retreated from Xuzhou.

This naturally relieved the positive pressure of the Japanese army in China, and they were able to find opportunities to break through and take the lead in occupying Xuzhou.

In the Battle of Xuzhou, even if the empire finally occupied Xuzhou, it would win openly, but it would actually be defeated in its core.

Now that the defeat is decided, Kenji Doihara certainly doesn't want to go to this muddy water. He also wants to work hard to save some defeat, but he failed.

Now, he can only find another way out and has to consider the next battle.
