Temporary command of the Japanese army

The division commander Junrokuro Matsuura and the brigade commander Foreword Zhidu were both in the headquarters to observe the battle situation and discuss things at the same time.

"Your Excellency, division commander, half an hour ago, the troops on the other side of Nanguan also received news that their battle situation is going well, and they will be able to take the position in a short time, according to this trend, we only need to attack for less than three days, and then the army will definitely not be able to support it!" The commander of the 111 Brigade looked at the situation on the sand table and said with a smile.

By the time of the attack, relying on fighter planes and tanks, they had now held a small part of the positions under the jurisdiction of the enemy's First Army, and it was difficult for the other side to encircle them just by looking at the geographical situation.

As long as they take a few positions, when the time comes, there will be loopholes in the opponent's encirclement, and at that time...... Once they broke out of this complex area, they could see that the chariot would be able to walk on the plain, drive all the way straight in, join up with the other divisions of the empire, and then march south all the way to Changsha!

Hearing this, Matsuura also smiled, and his expression was very relaxed.

He couldn't help but say, "Yes! It's finally come to this! ”

"In this battle, our army suffered great losses, but fortunately, as long as we can break through the defense line of the Zhina Army and converge with the main force of our army, even if the Zhina Army reacts and dispatches the army to join the siege again, but at that time, ...... It's too late for them! ”

"When it comes to the plains, our mechanized troops will be able to exert a strong advantage, and the Chinese army will be completely unable to resist it with their equipment alone! Our empire will surely achieve the ultimate victory! ”

The two of them smiled and looked very comfortable, as if the overall situation was already under control.

However, just as they were saying this, at this very moment, a soldier suddenly came to report.

"Your Excellency the Division Commander, Your Excellency the Division Commander......"

A Japanese officer hurriedly came over, with a look of panic on his face, looked very nervously in front of him, and said urgently: "Your Excellency the division commander, what's wrong...... Big things are wrong! ”

"What's wrong?" Seeing that the officer was so panicked and didn't know what was going on, Junrokuro Matsuura suddenly felt a sigh in his heart, as if something bad was about to happen, which made his face very ugly.

"The news just came that the position thirty miles south of Nanguan has been lost, and the imperial army in charge of that position has been completely wiped out! An entire brigade, all of them were not annihilated, and not a single one survived! The officer said hurriedly.

"Nani?"

Hearing this, Matsuura Junrokuro's eyes widened instantly, and the smile on his face instantly dissipated, replaced by disbelief and endless anger.

Without waiting for Junrokuro Matsuura to speak, after hearing the news, the preface Zhidu stood up suddenly, with a shocked expression on his face, a look of disbelief, and then said, "How is this possible?" ”

"Just half an hour ago, I just got the news that the troops stationed there had just surrounded the defenders of China, and even forced the other side to a dead end, not to mention, they still had the coordination of several chariots, how could they be completely wiped out in such a short time? How is this possible! ”

Foreword: I can't believe it at all!

After saying this, he hurriedly walked to the sand table, hurriedly observed the situation, and at the same time muttered in his mouth: "This is impossible!" Could it be that the army of Chengzhi mobilized a large army? But if there is a large-scale mobilization of troops, it is impossible for us to detect and not know! ”

"What the hell is going on! It's absolutely impossible! ”

The foreword Zhidu seems to be in a trance, he really can't believe the authenticity of this news!

However, after hearing this, the officer shook his head and said with a miserable face: "Your Excellency the division commander, Your Excellency the brigade commander, this is true!" There was no response from the other side to the message we sent, and we also sent people to investigate, but there was no one on the battlefield at all! Whether it is the Chinese army or the imperial army, there is not a single living person! All dead, all dead! ”

"What the hell is going on?!" Hearing this, the preface Zhidu couldn't help but roar angrily and asked.

At this moment, the eyes of the foreword Zhidu were flushed with blood, and his face looked a little hideous, which seemed to frighten the officer at once, making him a little afraid to speak for a moment.

Preface: Zhidu is talented, capable, and has more qualifications and experience, in fact, according to his qualifications, a division commander will never be able to run even if he is a C-level division commander!

But so far, he is only a brigade commander of a B-level division, because his psychological quality is not very good!

He's smart, and because he's smart, he likes the feeling that everything is under control, and if the war goes well, he'll be invincible, but if there's an accident, he'll easily have a mental breakdown.

Therefore, it is precisely because of his principle that he is still only a brigade commander!

And now, there was an accident in the battle that he couldn't control, and the preface collapsed in an instant!

Compared with the preface, Junrokuro Matsuura was much more shocked, after all, he was the commander of the division, and he had seen a lot of winds and waves, so his mental quality was much better.

He calmed himself down, took a deep breath, then looked at the officer in a deep voice, and said in a calm tone: "Don't worry, tell me, what's going on?" What's going on on the battlefield over there? ”

"Your Excellency, Division Commander...... I don't know the exact situation, but when our scouts arrived, they found some unusual traces......" The officer paused as he said this.

"What are the traces?" Hearing this, Junrokuro Matsuura's eyes flashed, and he hurriedly asked.

He had a premonition in his dark that if there was a real accident, maybe it should be on this!

Hearing Matsuura's question, the officer hesitated for a moment, and then said: "After our people rushed over to investigate, they found through the situation on the battlefield that the war was originally smooth sailing, and the Shina army had reached the point of running out of ammunition and food and was forced to launch a suicidal charge, and when attacking, all the Shina troops were killed by the imperial army!" But for some reason, there was a sudden unexpected ......"

"The Imperial Army all fled, and they all turned around and fled outside the battlefield, and I also saw a lot of broken corpses on the battlefield, some flesh that had been crushed into slag, and that deep dent, we found ......"
