More than 70 miles northeast of Langxi County, is Gaochun County.

The Japanese army that captured Gaochun County was the Kunisaki detachment.

After the main force of the Kunisaki detachment advanced towards Wuhu, only one infantry squad was left in Gaochun to maintain order.

Until yesterday, the Japanese army stationed in Gaochun County had only one infantry squad, and there was no puppet army to assist, in fact, at this time, except for North China, there was basically no puppet army in other places.

Therefore, the defense of Gaochun County was very empty before.

If the national army can counterattack in a big way, it will definitely be able to recover Gaochun.

It's a pity that the 3 theater of operations is already out of the ability to fight back!

This can't be blamed for Gu Shutong's lack of initiative, it is really that the Battle of Songhu did too much damage to the 3rd Theater, and more than 100 divisions that participated in the Battle of Songhu were basically disabled, and none of them were complete!

Until now, the 3rd War Zone has not relented.

Therefore, it is not easy for the 3rd Theater to take advantage of the emptiness of the Japanese army to recover Xuancheng and Langxi, and it is indeed a bit unrealistic to expect them to recover more county seats.

But now, it is impossible to recover Gaochun County.

Because before dark, a large group of devils drove into Gaochun County.

This brigade is the 1st Infantry Brigade of the Fukuyama Wing, Captain Usamitaka.

The Kunisaki detachment did not fight with the 367th regiment after it initially fought with the 367th regiment in Jinshanwei, and the Kunisaki detachment did not participate in the most tragic battle of Nanjing.

However, Usamitaka has a clear understanding of the combat effectiveness of the 367th Regiment.

At this time, Usamitaka was inspecting the map of southern Anhui in the war room of the brigade headquarters.

The map used by the Japanese army invading China was a tourist map observed and drawn by a special agent of the Japanese Ministry of Internal Affairs under the pretext of travel.

However, this is not the case, the travel maps drawn by the Japanese spies are even more accurate than the military maps drawn by the Nationalist Government, so that after discovering this, the Nationalist Army, the Eighth Route Army, and the New Fourth Army all adopted the maps of the Japanese army on a large scale, and abandoned the maps drawn by the Nationalist Government.

At this time, a tall Japanese officer walked into the war room proudly.

As soon as the officer entered the war room, he suddenly retracted his feet, making a crunch sound.

Then, the officer bowed heavily and said proudly: "Captain! ”

Usamitaka looked up at the officer and smiled, "Abe-kun, you're here?" ”

Dare to love this Japanese officer who is also an old opponent of the 367th Regiment, spear lieutenant Abe Kamiji! At the beginning of Jinshan County, Abe Kamiji was in danger many times, and finally he was lucky to pick up a life.

"Hello!" Abe Kameji said, "I don't know what the captain commands?" ”

Usamitaka bowed slightly and asked, "Are your special assault teams ready?" ”

"Hello!" Abe Kameji paused again, and said, "In accordance with the requirements of the captain, the special attack team is always in a state of first-level combat readiness, and as long as the captain gives an order, it can attack at any time!" ”

Previously, when Usamitaka was serving as an operational staff officer at the headquarters of the 10th Army, he had proposed to the then commander of the 10th Army, Yanagawa Heisuke, to establish a real special forces, but Yanagawa Heisuke refused.

Later, Usamitaka was transferred to the Kunisaki detachment, and later due to the vacancy of the captain of the 1st Brigade of the Fukuyama Wing, Usamitaka took over.

After becoming the captain of the infantry group, Usamitaka finally has the opportunity to build a special forces.

As a result, the special attack team directly under the headquarters of the brigade came into being, and Usamitaka also selected a squad leader with strong individual combat effectiveness for this special attack team: spear second lieutenant Abe Kamiji!

It's just that now, the spear lieutenant has been promoted to the rank of spear captain!

"Yo Xi!" Usamitaka nodded happily and added, "Then now, the time has come!" ”

After a pause, Usamitaka beckoned Abe Kamiji to stand in front of him.

When Abe Kameji also walked to the table, Usamitaka pointed to the map and said, "Abe-kun, come and see, according to the order of the Front Army Headquarters, our 1st Infantry Brigade must occupy Langxi and Xuancheng counties on the border of Jiangsu and Anhui to ensure the safety of the flanks of the 18th Division. ”

"Look again, this is the county seat of Langxi."

"According to the information provided by the secret service, Langxi County is stationed in the main force of the Zhina Army! The main force of the Chinese Army is very strong in combat, otherwise it would not have been able to recover Langxi County. ”

Hearing this, Abe Kamiji understood what he meant: "What does the captain mean?" ”

Usamitaka said in a deep voice: "Since the landing of Jinshanwei, our brigade has always been in high-intensity marching and high-intensity combat, and there has been no time to rest, so the soldiers are already very tired!" ”

After a pause, Usamitaka continued: "So, if you can outwit, there is no need to attack!" ”

"Outwitted?" Abe Kameji bowed his head lightly and asked, "What does the captain mean is that our special attack team will decapitate the garrison of Langxi?" ”

"That's right!" Usamitaka nodded happily, "This is what Zhong Yi taught us. ”

After a pause, Usamitaka continued, "As long as your special attack team can successfully infiltrate Langxi County and successfully carry out the decapitation battle against the main force of China, our brigade can easily defeat the enemy in front of you and occupy Langxi County again." ”

"Hello!" Abe Kameji paused and said, "The Special Attack Team will not disappoint the captain!" ”

"Yo Xi!" Usamitaka nodded happily and said, "But Abe-kun, I have to tell you something, there may still be a lot of defeated troops in Langxi County!" ”

Abe Kameji said: "The captain is saying that the defeated soldiers who escaped from Nanjing?" ”

"Yes." Usamitaka nodded, and said, "According to the information provided by the aviation scouts, almost all of the rout troops of the Chinese army that fled from Nanjing finally fled into Langxi County, although half a month has passed now, it is said that these routs should have left, but no one dares to guarantee that there will be some routs left." ”

"Hello!" Abe Kameji paused, "Don't worry, Captain, we will pay attention." ”

Usamitaka waved his hand and said: "I'm not worried about anything else, the only thing I'm worried about is Zhong Yi, if Zhong Yi and his 367th Regiment are also in Langxi County, your special attack team will be in danger!" It's a pity that the intelligence forces of the secret services in southern Anhui and western Zhejiang are very weak, so we don't know much about these two places. ”

After a pause, Usamitaka said again: "In short, your special attack team is going to Langxi this time, and the only task is to destroy the regimental headquarters of the defenders of China, and if the whereabouts of the 367th regiment are found, retreat immediately, and definitely not fall in love!" ”

"Hello!" Kamiji Abe nodded again.
