Central mall, rooftop rooftop.

As soon as the 367th Regiment began to counterattack, a few old devils in the observation post immediately discovered it!

"Baga, here you go again, here you damn it again!" From the field of view of the artillery mirror, Shiro Inaba saw that the Japanese infantry who were advancing suddenly fell in rows, and he knew that the 367th Regiment had counterattacked again!

"I can't believe it!" Tokutaro Sakai said, "The 367th Regiment can still organize a large-scale counterattack!" ”

According to the information provided by the secret service, the total strength of the 367th Regiment is only 2,000 when it is full, and even if many of the defeated soldiers have defected to the 367th Regiment from the security zone in the past two days, the total will not exceed 3,000!

But during these two days of fighting, the 367 regiment lost at least two thousand!

That is to say, now there are less than a thousand people left in the 367 regiment!

There are only a thousand people left, and Zhong Yi can still launch a large-scale counter-assault?

Are these soldiers really not afraid of death? How is this possible?

"Sodesne!" Ushijima Mitsuya nodded and said, "Moreover, the counterattack of the 367th Regiment is as fierce as ever, and Kumamoto United and Kagoshima United can't stop it at all!" ”

Hearing this, Shiro Inaba's face immediately fell.

Because Kumamoto United and Kagoshima United really can't resist!

Under the onslaught of the counterattack troops of the 367th Regiment, the infantry of the two wings was like snow doused with boiling water, which instantly dissipated and melted and collapsed!

"Yaga Yaru!" Shiro Inaba said with a dark face, "How can this be?" ”

Inaba Shiro is indeed a little puzzled, shouldn't it be the branch soldier who will collapse at the first touch? Why did you get to Nanjing, but the situation was reversed? Transformed into an imperial army that collapsed at the touch of a button?

Moreover, it is the Kumamoto Division that will collapse at the touch of a button!

The Kumamoto Division is the main force among the seventeen standing divisions of the Imperial Army!

Ushijima said: "Division commander, this situation is actually not surprising. ”

After a pause, Ushijima Man continued: "There are three reasons, one is that Zhong Yi is indeed very powerful, especially good at encouraging people's hearts, as long as any rout army reaches him, he can become an elite in a blink of an eye!" Second, the Chinese army has no way to retreat, and the trapped beasts are still fighting, but sixty percent of the combat effectiveness can be exerted ten percent! Third, the imperial army is too tired, from the landing of Jinshanwei, our Kumamoto division has been in high-intensity marching and combat for more than a month, and has not been given even half a day of rest, and the soldiers have reached the limit in terms of physical strength and energy! ”

As soon as the words fell, Tokutaro Sakai continued: "I'm afraid there is another reason, that is, the individual firepower of the Shina Army is far superior to that of our division!" Although the imperial army had chariot units and heavy artillery units to assist in the battle, the heavy artillery units could not directly participate in street fighting and close combat, and the chariot troops did not have an absolute advantage in the face of the artillery of the Chinese army! On the contrary, the powerful individual firepower of the Chinese army can play a role in street battles! ”

Ushijima's analysis with Tokutaro Sakai is undoubtedly correct.

But after Shiro Inaba heard this, he was even more angry!

"Yaga Yaru!" Shiro Inaba said angrily, "I don't want to listen to this, as a result, I only care about the final result!" ”

After a slight pause in this, Inaba Shiro turned his head and yelled at Shigetoku Shigeta: "Shigeta-kun, tell Okamoto-kun and Kanda-kun to organize a third wave of attacks immediately, if by the time it gets dark, the Kumamoto United and Kagoshima United still can't take the Shinkaikou position, they will be ready to seppuku to thank His Majesty the Emperor!" ”

"Hello!" Shigeta shook his head and turned to go.

Seeing Shigeta Shigetoku's figure go away, Ushijima suddenly said: "Division commander, the Kumamoto Wing and Kagoshima Wing are exhausted and can't fight anymore, and it is estimated that it will be useless to attack again!" ”

Inaba Shiro glanced at Ushijima coldly, and said in a deep voice, "Ushijima-kun, do you mean to give up the attack?" And then I will go to His Royal Highness the Prince and commit suicide? ”

"The division commander laughed, but he didn't mean that." Ushijima shook his head, and then a cruel smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and said, "Division Commander, now that this matter has come, I'm afraid we have no other choice!" ”

"What do you mean?" Shiro Inaba reacted instantly, and said awe-inspiringly, "Using chemical weapons? ”

"Hello!" Ushijima paused, "Now that we can only hope for chemical weapons!" ”

"The problem is that the Xinjiekou battlefield is next to the international security zone!" Inaba Shiro said, "If chemical weapons are used on the battlefield of Xinjiekou, I am afraid it will be difficult to hide from the eyes of Western countries!" After a pause, he added, "Also, I'm afraid that the radio station of the Chinese army will not ignore it, and will definitely announce the news to the world!" ”

Ushijima said: "As long as the imperial army does not admit it, what can the West do to me?" ”

After a pause, Ushijima said in a deep voice: "On the contrary, if Xinjiekou cannot be attacked for a long time, it is very likely that the hundreds of thousands of defeated troops hiding in the international security zone will appear repeatedly, and then it will be a big trouble!" Of the two, which is more important, please also ask the division commander to think clearly! ”

Shiro Inaba listened but was silent for a long time.

……

At the same time, at the headquarters of the 10th Army in the town of Chunhua.

Hatohiko Asakanomiya is furious in the war room.

The reason for Hatohiko's anger is actually very simple, just now, Hirohito sent him a telegram in his personal name, and the telegram actually didn't say anything reproachful, but Hatohiko Asakanomiya could feel that Hirohito's inner dissatisfaction with him, to be precise, was very disappointed in his performance in the battle to capture Nanjing!

This is intolerable for Hatohiko Asakamiya, who has always been conceited!

But Hirohito is the emperor, and it is impossible for Hatohiko Asakanomiya to pour out his anger on Hirohito!

Therefore, Hatohiko Asakamiya could only pour out his anger on the head of the Sixth Division!

"Waste, it's all waste, it's all waste!" Hatohiko of Asakanomiya angrily swept all the rulers, maps, gauges and other tools on the desk to the ground, while scolding, "A bunch of waste! ”

Tetsujiro Yamada and a cadre of staff officers from the staff department stood beside him, not daring to say a word.

After a long time of fire, Hatohiko finally calmed down and asked Tetsujiro Yamada: "Yamada-kun, tell me, before it gets dark today, is it still possible for the Kumamoto Division to take Xinjiekou?" ”

Yamada Tetsujiro said: "Your Highness, I'm afraid there is only one way to do it!" ”

Hearing this, Hatohiko of Asaka Palace suddenly perked up, and said hurriedly: "Shan Juntian, what can you say?" ”

Tetsujiro Yamada said word by word: "Your Highness, I'm afraid you can only use chemical weapons!" ”

"Chemical weapons?" Hatohiko of Asaka Palace patted his head and suddenly said, "Why did you forget this?" After a pause, he said to Tetsujiro Yamada, "Yamada-kun, call the Kumamoto Division, don't have any scruples, and immediately use chemical weapons to attack the 367th Regiment of Shinjiekou!" ”
