Chapter 1221 Fighting wits and courage (1)
Zhuniangling, the temporary command of the 51st Japanese infantry Regiment.
The captain of the 51st Infantry Regiment, Ikeda Ryoji patted Kameda Ichiro on the shoulder and said, "Kirami Kameda, it is said that victory or defeat is common in military affairs. If you lose today, you will win tomorrow! When you go back to Hangzhou this time, your 54th Infantry Regiment must rectify and strive to return to the battlefield as soon as possible."
"Hayi." Kameda Ichiro paused slightly and said, "Ikeda, I will definitely come back."
"Yo Xi." Ikeda Ryoji nodded happily and said, "Kun Kameda, I'm waiting for you here."
"Hayi." Kameda Ichiro paused again, then left with a saber carrying a depressed look.
Watching Kameda Ichiro's figure go away, the smile on the corner of Ikeda Ryoji's mouth slowly turns into a sneer. This Wutian team member is still fantasizing about returning to the battlefield? He will burn the incense if he is not discharged from active service.
At this time, the sound of rapid footsteps suddenly sounded behind me.
Looking back, he saw the deputy captain of the deputy team, Ono Taniguchi, walking over with a slight face.
When I saw Yoo Taniguchi's face, Ikeda Ryoji immediately cried out in his heart, something happened!
Sure enough, Taniguchi Oo strode to Ikeda Renji, paused and said, "Captain, it's broken. The Chinese army opposite Zhu Niangling escaped overnight!"
"Nani?" Ikeda Ryoji said in a lost voice, "Has the Chinese army escaped overnight?"
"Hayi." Taniguchi Yono paused again and said, "In the second night of yesterday, the small-scale harassment of the Chinese army was just their eye-catching method, and the purpose was to cover the evacuation of the large army!"
"Baga!" said Ikeda Ryoji with hatred, "The cunning Chinese!"
After a pause, Ikeda Renji continued, "No, five Chinese troops gathered across Zhuniangling. Did all five divisions escape?"
"Hayi, all escaped." Taniguchi Yono said, "On the several search teams sent by Beizhi, one of which went deep into the vicinity of Xinchang County, did not find any Chinese army!"
"Nani?" Ikeda Ryoji said in a lost voice, "You mean, the Chinese army even gave up?"
"Hayi." Taniguchi Yono paused again and said, "When the search team arrived outside Xinchang City, the city gate opened wide and almost became an empty city. Because they were worried about ambushing, the search team did not enter the city rashly. However, from the moment, the Xinchang County town has probably become an empty city, and the Chinese army has definitely abandoned the city!"
"Baga, these Chinese troops are really too much." Ikeda Renji said.
What Ikeda Ryoji implied was that the Chinese army should stay in Xinchang County and wait for them to fight. This was also the usual style of the National Army, but this time it was different.
The Chinese army began to ignore the gains and losses of a city and a pool.
Yoo Taniguchi said again: "Captain, what should I do now?"
After a moment of contemplation, Renji Ikeda said, "Order, the search team will divide into multiple routes and expand the search scope. Be sure to find the escape position of the Chinese army, and report the changes on Zhuniangling to the headquarters."
"Hayi!" Taniguchi Yoshino paused his head suddenly and hurried away with a saber.
...
The incident at Zhu Niangling was quickly reported to Shanghai.
Hinata Shiaki immediately came to report to Usa Mitsuto.
"Nani?" After listening to Hinata's report, Mito Usa was also a little surprised. "The Chinese army reacted so quickly. Before the Imperial Army could even divide the troops and detour, they just left first?"
Hinata Shiaki said in a deep voice: "This is actually expected."
After a pause, Hinata Zhiming said again: "For the Chinese Army, taking advantage of the Imperial Army's unpreparedness and damaging one or two regiments is already their limit. Now the two main divisions of the Imperial Army gather in Xinsheng. The Chinese Army knows that it cannot be defeated, so it is reasonable to leave in advance."
"Yes." Usa Mirō said, "We expect the Chinese army on the Zhejiang-Fujian battlefield to be as good as the Chinese army on other battlefields to wait for the imperial army to fight them, but it is a bit wishful thinking. In any case, the commander of the Chinese army on the Zhejiang-Fujian battlefield is Zhong Yi, not those old-fashioned and brainless senior Chinese generals."
"Yes." Hinata Shiaki paused and said, "But this has an impact on our plans."
The plan formulated by Mitaka Usa and Shia Hinata was to first eat the transportation team from Yinjiang, and then concentrate the forces of the two divisions to return and eat the main force of the 10th Army on the Xinsheng battlefield.
Now the five divisions on the Xinsheng battlefield suddenly ran away, which had an impact on the Japanese army's next action, because they could no longer predict where the transportation team coming from Yinjiang would go.
Without a shortage of where the Yinjiang Transportation Team is going, it is very likely that the tactical intention will be exposed too early.
Facing an opponent of Zhong Yi’s level, once the tactical intention is exposed too early, it will be difficult to have a second chance!
Usa Mitsuru frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "Does the search teams of the 15th Division and the 17th Division have no way to determine the retreat location of the Chinese army?"
Hinata Shiaki shook his head and said, "It's impossible to confirm."
"Baga." Usa Mitsuto cursed, "Then there is nothing I can do, I can only ask for help from Doihira!"
After saying that, Usa Mitsuru hurried back to his office, grabbed the phone and called Kenji Doihara.
Almost as soon as Usa Mitsuru left, the Chief of Intelligence Staff Toshi entered the war room again, reported a new piece of information to Hinata Chiaki, and glanced at the sand table.
...
In Yinjiang, Zhejiang and Fujian, the enemy's staff was in the battle of the front.
He Wenxi walked to Zhong Yi with a telegram and said, "Sheng, you have come to expect it again. Usa Mirō, the Japanese devil, has really innovated his tactics."
Zhong Yi asked lightly, "What's going on?"
He Wenxi handed the telegram and said, "This is a secret telegram from Shanghai."
Zhong Yi received the telegram, hurriedly read it and sneered: "Usa Mirtoshi has made a good plan, but he actually wants to swallow the main force of the 10th Army in one bite!"
"However, the problem of joining the seat is still very serious." He Wenxi said with a serious expression. "The Japanese took a defensive attitude in Fuchun Jiangbei, allowing the 11th Brigade of Independent Mixed Reunion to shrink in Fuyang County without leaving the cave, and firmly restrained the 41st Army on the front line of Jiande. In this way, in the entire central Zhejiang battlefield, the Japanese's troops were two divisions. With two divisions against our army and one B army, the Japanese had a very high chance of winning."
After a pause, He Wenxi reached out to the map and said, "What's more, there is a bigger problem."
