"Your Excellency Shaozo, the enemy army has broken through the east gate, it is better to order Takashima Yuhei to command the rest of the troops to block the layers of the Dongcheng city and fight street battles. Order the reinforcements in the direction of the southern and northern castles to continue to reinforce and strengthen the blocking force of Yuhei Takashima! At this time, in the headquarters of the Japanese army in the city, Shinichi Okada, the chief of staff of Torotaro Nara, pointed to the map of the city of Guangling and said solemnly.

Nara Torotaro's eyes were solemn, and he was secretly surprised in his heart.

The east gate was attacked by the Eighth Route Army until it was breached, and it did not take more than eight minutes. In addition, the defenders of the city were all Japanese troops, and there was no imperial army to assist in defending the city, but it was still taken by others in less than eight minutes, which made Torotaro Nara secretly frightened.

"Baga Ya Road! Order reinforcements from the southern and northern cities, speed up the reinforcements, and be sure to assist the defenders of the eastern city to withstand the attack of the Chinese army! Torotaro Nara personally gave an order to a Japanese staff officer.

The devil's staff officer paused heavily and said, "Hayi, Your Excellency Shaozuo!" ”。

At this time, the guns and cannons outside the devil's headquarters roared, and the shouts of killing everywhere had already reached the ears of Torotaro Nara. It is conceivable that the siege troops of the new regiment have already reached their headquarters not too far away.

"Immediately send a report to His Excellency Commander Shinozuka, informing him that the new regiment has suddenly attacked our Guangling defenders, and request tactical guidance from His Excellency the Commander! Hurry up and drop! Nara Torotaro heard the shouts of the Eighth Route Army, waved his hand and ordered solemnly to his chief of staff, Shinichi Okada.

Okada Shinichi also heard the shouts of killing, and knew that in the small county town of Guangling City, once the enemy army attacked the city, the advantage of the Japanese army would not be very great.

"Ha Yi, Your Excellency Shao Zuo!" Shinichi Okada immediately paused, then turned around and personally sent a telegram asking for help, asking Yoshio Shinozuka for tactical guidance.

After all, knowing that it was the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army that was besieging the city, it was likely that with the combat effectiveness of the Guangling Japanese army, it would probably not be able to hold it.

Now, the only way to do this is to hold on to the city and fight street battles to delay time in order to wait for reinforcements to arrive.

As soon as the signal came out, soon the communication office of the headquarters of the Japanese First Army in Taiyuan City received an urgent call for help from the Japanese defenders in Guangling!

The intelligence officer of the headquarters of the First Army of the Japanese army rushed to the front of Yoshio Shinozuka with the urgent telegram that had just been translated, and reported to him.

"Your Excellency, Commander, something is wrong. Guangling was fiercely attacked by the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army, and now the east gate has been broken by the Eighth Route Army and is in the midst of fierce fighting in the city. Torotaro Nara asks for tactical guidance, and he asks for reinforcements! ”

Yoshio Shinozuka was looking at the map with his adjutant chief of staff, Taro Miyano, and discussing the military situation.

The two old devils actually heard the intelligence officer's report together, and immediately looked at each other, and then looked at each other, shocked.

"Nani? Guangling City is under the onslaught of a new regiment? Get it! Yoshio Shinozuka waved his hand and eagerly asked the devil intelligence officer for the urgent telegram in his hand.

Yoshio Shinozuka took the urgent telegram and looked at it, and in less than half a minute, his face was already gloomy and very hideous!

"Your Excellency, Commander, how is it going?" Taro Miyano also asked with great concern.

The strategic location of Guangling City is very important, especially in the siege of the new regiment base of Hengshan, which is one of the key links. The Guangling Japanese army is one of the main forces responsible for attacking Hengshan from the east, and if there is a problem here, then it will be difficult for Lingqiu County in the south to be good.

"Guangling City was attacked by a new regiment ten minutes ago, and now all directions of the city are surrounded. Especially now that the east gate has been breached, Yuhei Takashima, who is guarding the east gate, has led the rest of the troops to retreat to the city of Dongcheng to block the attack. However, the combat effectiveness of the Eighth Route Army is very strong, and it is definitely the main force, and I am afraid it will be difficult to hold the city. Torotaro Nara judged that this Eighth Route Army unit suddenly stormed Guangling City, and only the new regiment of Hengshan suddenly sent troops to attack Guangling, intending to break our encirclement posture of the new regiment in the Hengshan base area! ”

Taro Miyano frowned, took the telegram handed by Yoshio Shinozuka and read it carefully.

"Your Excellency Commander, Guangling City cannot be lost! Once lost, the troops of the Eighth Route Army that captured Guangling would take advantage of the situation to move south and attack Lingqiu County. At present, the strength of Lingqiu County is less than 1,500 people, and the city wall of Lingqiu County has been seriously damaged by several previous battles. I'm afraid it's difficult to defend the city, so Guangling must defend it! "Miyano Taro said urgently, Guangling City is one of the key links in the new regiment of the siege and attack of the Hengshan base area, if something happens here, the plan to besiege and attack Hengshan will be bankrupt.

When Yoshio Shinozuka heard this, his jaw head agreed, "Yo Xi, Miyano-kun's words are good!" Order Torotaro Nara to stand by for help. Immediately contact the aviation squadron that took off from Datong and turn to reinforce the Guangling Imperial Army to defend the city! Ordered Lingqiu County to dispatch an infantry squadron to make trucks to reinforce the north. According to Torotaro Nara's report, the strength of the Eighth Route Army attacking Guangling City will not exceed 1,000 people! We must defend Guangling City! Hurry up and drop! ”。

"Hayi, Your Excellency Commander, I'll deal with it personally!" Taro Miyano nodded, and immediately turned around and left to deploy the reinforcement order issued by Yoshio Shinozuka.

At this time, Yoshio Shinozuka was actually very worried about Torotaro Nara holding the county seat of Guangling when the ground reinforcements and air aviation squadrons arrived. After all, judging from the current situation, it is likely that part of the enemy army attacking Guangling City is the Eighth Route Army troops who ambushed Xianyuan Gong Zairen.

"Nara Torataro, Yaga, you have to resist it!" Yoshio Shinozuka can only pray in his heart at this time that Torotaro Nara, the old devil of Guangling City, can lead the army to defend Guangling City.

......

Guangling City, Dongcheng City.

Reinforcements from two infantry squads drawn from the south and north of the city rushed to the Dongcheng district one after another, and the headquarters of Takashima Yuhei, who had taken down the head of the city, were joined by Takashima Yuhei, and then street battles were launched in the Dongcheng district to block the fierce attack of Zhang Dabiao's department layer by layer.

The main road of Dongcheng is a street seven or eight meters wide, which can lead directly to the Japanese army headquarters in the center of the city.

Therefore, the street fighting here was very fierce, and the Japanese army was staring at the fierce attack of Zhang Dabiao's department, and the battle was very anxious.

"Battalion commander, the little devil is very tenacious. Our casualties are not small, what to do? In the smoke of artillery fire, a person ran backwards from the side of the street, standing in front of Zhang Dabiao.

Zhang Dabiao's eyes were solemn, but he didn't expect that the street fighting ability of the Japanese army stationed in Guangling was still very strong. It was a bit careless just now, not to mention that at present, it is obvious that the Japanese army has come to their senses and dispatched Japanese troops from the direction of the rest of the cities to reinforce the devils in Dongcheng District.
