Four o'clock in the morning was the darkest hour before dawn.

Higashikurenomiya Tsusahiko was rarely dressed in formal clothes, pacing back and forth in front of his command tent, and the expression on his face was also unprecedentedly anxious and anxious!

Until now, the 16th and 116th divisions have not sent back good news!

In other words, there are still Chinese troops in Hankou and Hanyang who are resisting to the death!

In other words, it is still unknown whether the Second Army will finally capture Wuhan!

However, the main forces of China's Fifth and Ninth Theaters are swooping down from three directions!

The fastest is tomorrow evening, oh no, today is already September 1st, and the fastest is this evening, that is, in another fifteen hours, the main forces of China's two major theaters will be able to rush to Wuhan!

If they still can't take Wuhan before this, their second army will be in big trouble!

"Damn it, damn it!" Higashikunomiya Tsukihiko's expression became more and more agitated, and while pacing back and forth, he began to curse, "This idiot Keisuke Fujie, and this idiot Yoshiichiro Miki, what are they doing?" Why can't you still take Hankou and Hanyang? Why? Why?! ”

Adjutant Mei Igarashi stood next to him and didn't dare to make a sound, but her heart began to sink.

Because from the expression and demeanor of Higashikure Palace, he saw a bad sign!

In fact, there have been rumors about the Japanese imperial family in Japan, saying that there are frequent marriages between close relatives, which leads to serious problems in the genes of the Japanese imperial family.

Wasn't the emperor of the previous generation a psychopath?

From the current expression and demeanor of Higashikurenomiya Tsuhiko, Mei Igarashi has seen the signs!

But Mei Igarashi didn't dare to persuade her, God knows if his persuasion would be counterproductive?

Now, the only thing Mei Igarashi can do is pray, praying that the 16th Division will be able to capture Hanyang sooner, and the 116th Division will also be able to capture Hankow sooner!

Higashikurenomiya Twist Higashi's pace was getting faster and faster, and the expression on his face was getting more and more agitated.

Just when Mei Igarashi was worried, a rush of footsteps suddenly came from inside the tent.

Then the curtain was lifted, and the figure of Chief of Staff Machijiri Ritsuki had already come out of the command tent.

Higashikurenomiya Tsukihiko immediately stopped, his eyes fell on Machijiri Liangji, and he asked urgently: "Machijiri-kun, is there any news from the 16th Division and the 116th Division?" Is it that Hankou and Hanyang have already been taken? ”

When Machijiri heard this, he just shook his head with a condensed expression.

"Haven't won it yet?" Higashikurenomiya's face immediately fell.

"Hello!" "The 16th Division and the 116th Division report that their attack has met with stubborn resistance from the Shina Army, and the progress in the previous few hours has been very slow, if not at all! ”

After a pause, Machijiri said again: "Especially Hanyang's Shina Army, which used tanks!" ”

"Nani, tank?" Higashikurenomiya said awe-inspiringly, "The Shina army used tanks? ”

"Hai, this should be the tank unit that led to the annihilation of the 3rd Division!" Machijiri paused, then said, "But Your Highness doesn't have to worry too much, although the 16th Division's tank defense guns and tanks have been exhausted, you can still organize death squads to carry out close blasting!" ”

Higashikurenomiya Tsukihiko frowned and said, "Is it useful for the death squad to approach the blast?" ”

"It works!" "In the first phase of the Battle of Songhu last year, the Marines stationed in Hongkou used this tactic and successfully destroyed two tank companies of the Chinese Army!" And just now, the 16th Division reported that they had blown up at least twenty tanks of the Chinese Army! ”

"Yo Xi, let them keep blowing up!" Higashikurenomiya suddenly perked up, waved his fist and roared, "Hurry up and blow up all the tanks, and when there are no tanks, I want to see what the Chinese army can do to resist the attack of the imperial army, and what else they can use to resist the attack of the imperial army, hum!" ”

"This ......" Machijiri Yuki stopped talking when he heard this.

Higashikurenomiya Tsukihiko noticed the strangeness of Machijiri Liangji, and frowned: "Machijiri-kun, what's the matter?" ”

"Hello!" Machijiri gritted his teeth and said, "Your Highness, although the 16th Division of Hanyang was suddenly attacked by the Shina tank, the battle line was still advancing little by little, but the 116th Division of Hankow, although it was not blocked by the Shina tank, could not advance an inch!" ”

"Yaga!" Higashikurenomiya said angrily, "What did the 116th Division do? ”

"Hello!" Machijiri Liangji paused again and said in a deep voice, "The 116th Division reports that the Shina Army has adopted the method of burning jade and stones, which has caused great difficulties for the Imperial Army's attack!" ”

"The method of fighting with jade and stones?" Higashikurenomiya said, "What do you mean?" ”

Machijiri said: "Zhong Yi, this bastard, actually let his soldiers hold the 155mm caliber shells that have been unlocked, and rush to the battlefield one after another, every time the imperial army attacks, there will inevitably be a soldier holding a large-caliber cannonball to meet and detonate the cannonball, and the imperial army that is engaged in the attack will die together!" ”

"Nani?" Higashikurenomiya was stunned, "There is such a thing!" ”

In the next second, Higashikurenomiya turned around and left, walking straight to the camp gate.

Machijiri Liangji hurriedly followed, and asked anxiously, "Your Highness, where are you going?" ”

"I'm going to Hankou City!" Higashikurenomiya said angrily, "I want to see with my own eyes this tactic of the Shina Army!" ”

"No, it's too dangerous!" Machijiri Liangji hurriedly persuaded, "Although most of Hankou is now under the control of the imperial army, no one dares to guarantee that there are no special forces hiding in the ruins!" Your Highness, it is too dangerous for you to enter the city at this time, you can't go, you can't go! ”

"Get out of here!" Higashikurenomiya Twisthiko pushed Machijiri Tsukiko away with one hand!

Seeing that he couldn't stop Higashikurenomiya Tsugahiko, Machijiri Ryoki turned around and yelled, "Yamamoto-kun, Yamamoto-kun?!" ”

Shigeo Yamamoto's figure came out of a tent next to him, and he paused and asked, "What do you command, Your Excellency Chief of Staff?" ”

"Quickly take your special operations team and enter the city of Hankou!" Machijiri said urgently, "No matter what, we must ensure the personal safety of Your Highness, and you must not let Your Highness have any accidents!" ”

"Hello!" Shigeo Yamamoto paused suddenly, turned back and shouted, "Special Operations Brigade, assemble!" ”

The next moment, more than 200 special combat personnel rushed out of more than a dozen tents in a swarm.

In just a moment, more than 200 team members completed the assembly, and then, under the leadership of Yamamoto Shigeo, they quickly caught up with Higashikurenomiya Tsukihiko, and then escorted Higashikurenomiya Tsuruhiko into Hankou City.

ps: It is recommended that those urgent sub-readers do not chase more, and it will be better to save a month and then watch it.
