In Laojun Hall, the temporary command of the 10th Japanese Infantry Regiment.

At the beginning, Mori Mori didn't take the counterattack from the Chinese army at all!

In his opinion, the Japanese army did not like night battles, rather than not night battles. In fact, the Japanese army's attack power at night was no worse than that of the Chinese army!

Therefore, Mori Mori did not believe that the night counterattack of the Chinese army could pose a threat!

Maori Mokyu firmly believed that the 10th Infantry Regiment could defeat the Chinese army's night counterattack!

For half an hour, the progress of the battle also verified Maori Mori's judgment. The Chinese army attacked from the front position in Shajiaxiang for half an hour, but only advanced less than two hundred meters.

Although the Chinese army broke through the first line of defense, after Mori Mori transferred the Second Infantry Battalion to the Makamikaze, the line of defense immediately stabilized again!

However, at this moment, another Chinese army suddenly broke out from behind!

Now, the 10th Infantry Regiment caught off guard, causing the entire defense line of the 10th Infantry Regiment to become in panic!

Especially the Taiping Lane in the middle, it was originally the strongest line of defense for the 10th Infantry Regiment, but now it is the most precarious line of defense!

The Chinese army attacked from front and back was about to complete the meeting at the entrance of Taiping Lane!

However, Mori Mori did not ask for help from the division and headquarters immediately!

If the Chinese army's first counterattack forced him to ask for help from the division headquarters or even the Second Army Command, wouldn't he seem incompetent?

Maori Mori tried to rely on the troops of his headquarters to stabilize the defense line first and then ask for help!

However, less than a quarter of an hour later, Maori Mohiro discovered that something was wrong. He found that the entire defense line of the 10th Infantry Regiment had been disrupted by the Chinese army, and the entire regiment was about to collapse!

The death of the captain of the 1st Infantry Battalion, Hideichi Sasaki, became the last straw that overwhelmed Camel and Luo!

After receiving the news of Sasaki Hideichi's death, Mori Masahiro finally panicked and ordered the communication team to send a telegram to the division headquarters immediately, requesting emergency tactical guidance!

...

At the headquarters of the Second Japanese Army.

However, Higashinomiya Nianhiko still sat firmly on Diaoyutai, and was relaxed in playing Go with Machijiri.

Higakure-Miya Nihiko didn't take it seriously. In his opinion, unless something major happened, the Chinese army's night counterattack would not cause any waves!

In any case, the three infantry corpses that broke into Hankou city, including the 10th Infantry Regiment, have made sufficient preparations, and even built side firepower in the houses on both sides of several main streets!

So, at this moment, Higakuru Miya Nihiko was in a very relaxed mood!

"Bang!" Higashijiujiu Nihiko picked up a black piece and slapped it heavily in the upper left corner of the chessboard.

Seeing Hiromiya Nihiko suddenly make this move, the smile on Machijiri Yoshiki's face immediately solidified, and then turned into a look of frowning.

After taking the exam for several minutes, Machijiri Yoshiki was still hesitant and dared not make a move.

"Machijiri, don't worry." Higakuramiya Nianhiko took the teacup and took a sip of tea, smiling, "Think slowly, we have time! Anyway, there are still a few hours before dawn!"

However, before he finished speaking, a burst of rapid footsteps suddenly sounded outside the tent.

Machijiri Raki continued to concentrate on the long-term examination, but Higashinomiya Naihiko turned around leisurely and saw that the curtain was lifted, Yoshio Shinozuka had already walked in with a blue face.

Seeing Yoshio Shinozuka's face, Higakuramiya Nianhiko couldn't help but feel a little thumping in his heart. What's wrong?

"Your Highness!" Shinozuka Yoshio quickly walked to Higashinomiya Nianhiko, paused and said, "What happened!"

"What happened?" Higashijiugu Nianyan's heart thrilled again, and she said in a deep voice, "What happened?"

Yoshio Shinozuka said: "I just received an emergency telegram from the 10th Infantry Regiment, saying that a Chinese army suddenly appeared behind them and launched two hundred attacks on them. Now they can't resist the enemy, so I ask the division headquarters for emergency reinforcements!"

"Nani?" Higakuremiya Nianhiko's eyes widened in an instant, and she said with a sniff, "A Chinese army suddenly appeared behind the 10th Infantry Regiment? How is this possible?"

"Hayi!" Shinozuka Yoshio paused his head, "From the current situation, this Chinese army should have detoured from the tunnel to behind the 10th Infantry Regiment!"

"Authentic?" said Machijiri Ryoki, "Aren't they all blown up?"

The three infantry corpses that broke into Hankou City, including the 10th Infantry Regiment, were advancing forward, and also blew up the tunnels and underground shelters built by the Chinese army one by one!

Because these tunnels and underground shelters are built by the Chinese army, with organs and secret passages everywhere in the middle. The Japanese army kept these underground fortifications and could only be cheaper for the Chinese, so it would be better to blow them up directly!

Yoshio Shinozuka said: "From the moment, the Imperial Army has only blown up shallow tunnels and underground shelters. In addition, the Chinese army should also have tunnels hidden deeper underground!"

"There are tunnels that are hidden deeper?" Higakuremiya Nianhiko gritted her teeth, "Baga, the Chinese are so cunning!"

"By the way!" Machijiri Iki suddenly said to Yoshio Shinozuka, "Shinozuka, the 10th Infantry Regiment is about to be unable to withstand it. Why don't you send troops to rescue me directly? What are you doing here?"

Yoshio Shinozuka shook his head and said, "I came here just to persuade Your Highness to immediately issue an order to the 13th Division and the 116th Division, not to rescue troops entering the city!"

"No rescue?" Machijiri Ryoki said, "Why is this?"

Yoshio Shinozuka said: "I know, it is cruel to watch the three corpses entering the city be wiped out by the Chinese army without rescue, but I know more clearly that if rescued, not only will the three infantry corpses entering the city be unable to be rescued, but it will only add more unnecessary casualties in vain!"

"Why?" This time the question was asked, "Nihiko Higashinomiya."

Yoshio Shinozuka replied: "Your Highness must have heard of the transcendent shooting method, right?"

"Beyond the shooting method?" Higakuromiya Nianhiko said sternly, "The heavy machine gun tactics pioneered by the German army in the Battle of the Somme!"

"Hayi!" Shinozuka Yoshio bowed his head heavily and said bitterly, "Our 10th Division once suffered a great loss from the Chinese army surpassing the shooting method. More than 2,000 imperial soldiers were killed in just one battle!"

Higakurimiya Nianhiko shivered and turned her head to instruct Machijiri Ryoki: "Machijiri, call Huozhou and Kiyomizuki immediately and order them not to send troops to rescue!"

"Hayi!" Machijiriya paused her head heavily.
Chapter completed!
