Chapter 728: Separate Pursuits

Macheng, the headquarters of the governor of the Dabie Mountain Theater.

Zhong Yi has already started his micro-gymnastics performance!

It's just that in the past, his micro-manipulation performance was realized through the keyboard on the computer, but now his micro-manipulation is realized through radio waves to contact more than 200 regiments on the front line of Dabie Mountain!

Since half an hour ago, Zhong Yi's gaze has never left the simulated sand table.

"Order, the 301st Regiment of the 51st Division retreats in the direction of Killing Pigs and forcibly marches!"

"Order, the 305th Regiment of the 51st Division retreats in the direction of Feizhong Mountain, an ordinary march!"

"Order, the 343rd Regiment of the 58th Division retreats in the direction of Dayingao, an ordinary march!"

"Order, the 306th Regiment of the 51st Division will be stationed in place and retreat in the direction of Liujiawan in half an hour!"

"Order, the 344th Regiment of the 58th Division will be stationed in place, and retreat in the direction of Maple Pass in twenty minutes!"

Zhong Yi's orders were issued one after another, and the staff officers of the Chief's Department also worked through the sand table to present Zhong Yi's intentions on the sand table.

But I saw that the sand table was already full of dense small red flags.

More than a dozen operational staff officers kept pulling down the little red flag and inserting it back.

Bai Chongbei and the others who were standing next to them were confused, but at the same time they felt extremely nervous!

Bai Chongbei even secretly regretted it, was it too reckless to hand over the fate of more than 600,000 elite troops in the entire war zone to a young man in his twenties like Zhong Yi?

……

Thin Knife Peak, Wollongong.

The headquarters of the 22nd Division of the Japanese Army was located in Wollongong.

At this time, the commander of the 22nd Division, Tsuchihashi, was convening a meeting with Chief of Staff Hideo Baba, Infantry Regiment Commander Sakurai Seizzo, and several wing commanders directly under him.

"Ladies and gentlemen." Tsuchihashi's gaze swept over the faces of Hideo Baba and the others, and then continued, "Your Excellency Okamura has led the main force of the Eleventh Army to the west along the north bank of the Yangtze River, and Your Excellency Guzhuang has also led the main force of the Twelfth Army to the south along the Pinghan Railway, if nothing else, the Chinese Army opposite us will soon withdraw its troops!" ”

Hearing this, several officers present at the meeting showed excitement.

"Yo Xi, it's been half a month, is it finally our turn to counterattack!"

"Suoga, finally no longer have to huddle in the trenches to nibble on cold rice balls!"

"The Chinese army wants to withdraw its troops, hehe, I'm afraid it's not that easy!"

Tuqiao once raised his hand, interrupted the shouting of several officers, and said: "Under normal circumstances, there are two ways for the Chinese army to retreat, one is to cover and retreat in an orderly manner, and the other is to retreat in a concentrated manner without swarming!" For the two different ways of retreating, we have to prepare differently! ”

After a pause, Tsuchihashi continued: "According to my estimate, it is more likely that the Chinese army will take the latter way of retreating, so in addition to the four infantry wings, the search team, the baggage wing, the engineer wing, and even the mountain artillery wing must be prepared to pursue separately in order to attack if necessary!" ”

"Hello!" Several officers stood up in unison and paused.

As soon as the words fell, a young man suddenly hurriedly walked in.

"Division Commander!" Shao Zuo Don first reported, "The Chinese army has retreated! ”

"So fast?" Tsuchihashi once heard this, his expression was shocked, and he said in a deep voice, "Let's go, take a look!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Tsuchihashi had already turned around and walked out, and Hideo Baba, Sakurai Province, and several other captains of the directly subordinate wings also hurriedly followed.

In less than a moment, the group had arrived at the observation post on the top of Wollongong.

Looking down the hill from the top of the observation post, through the binoculars, it is clear that the Chinese troops in the north have begun to withdraw from their positions.

With the exception of a small number of remaining troops, most of the Chinese troops have withdrawn from their original positions.

While holding the binoculars, Hideo Baba said to Tsuchihashi once: "Division commander, on the opposite side is the 51st Division of the 74th Army, from the current point of view, the three regiments of the 51st Division are already retreating, and the retreat speed is extremely fast, almost running away at full speed, and the direction of escape is different!" ”

"Yo Xi!" Tsuchihashi nodded once, "Sure enough, as I expected!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the young man hurriedly boarded the observation post and reported to Tuqiao once: "Division commander, the 84th, 85th, and 86th Infantry Wings report at the same time that the Chinese armies on both flanks of the position are rapidly retreating, and they are rapidly withdrawing separately as regiments. How to pursue? ”

"The military spirit of the Chinese army has collapsed, and the rout of the Battle of Songhu is about to be repeated in the Dabie Mountains!" Tuqiao put down the binoculars once and shouted with great ambition, "Order, the 84th, 85th, and 86th Infantry Wings will immediately pursue separately with the brigade as a unit, and the divisional and regimental units directly under the wings, except for the Mountain Artillery Wing, the rest of the wings will also pursue separately!" ”

After a pause, Tuqiao shouted again and again: "Tell all the troops again, don't worry that the troops will run away, just give me peace of mind and boldly chase forward, the Chinese army has collapsed!" ”

"Hello!" The devil Shaozuo stumbled heavily.

……

At this time, in the 306th Regiment defensive positions.

"Tuanza!" The guard Liu Xiaomao came to Lu Xing out of breath and shouted, "The devil is out of the hole!" ”

"Don't be so loud, I saw it!" Lu Xing snorted lightly, put away the binoculars, and asked again, "Xiaomao, how long has it been?" ”

Liu Xiaomao replied loudly: "Tuanza, twenty-nine minutes have passed!" ”

"Twenty-nine minutes, not much worse!" After Lu Xing finished speaking, he got up and shouted loudly, "Pass my order, all battalions and companies immediately withdraw from their positions, and the target is Liujiawan, run for me, run!" ”

After speaking, Lu Xing turned around and ran wildly in the direction of Liujiawan.

While running, Lu Xing roared in his heart, God testified, this is really not my surname Lu's fear of the enemy, but the order of the Governor's Department is like this, and I am also helpless!

The next moment, the officers and soldiers of the 306th Regiment who were sticking to the position jumped up from the position one after another, followed Lu Xing, and fled to Liujiawan like a swarm! That posture is like more than 3,000 frightened wild boars, all of them are running crazy.

At this time, the little devils in several defensive positions under Wollongong on the opposite side had just rushed out.

Seeing that the more than 3,000 officers and men of the 306th Regiment were scurrying all over the mountains like wild boars, the more than 1,000 devils who rushed out were immediately demoralized, and they chased after them with a roar.

"Tao times change, Tao times change, Tao times change!"

A devil officer brandished a saber and roared in the sky!

"The Great Japanese Imperial Army is onboard! Great Japanese Empire onboard! Your Majesty the Emperor, onboard! Immediately after that, one after another the devil soldiers roared, and then, with their bayonet rifles in hand, they threw off and strode after them.

didn't chase far, and the devil's formation was completely chaotic, chasing forward all over the mountains.
