Chapter 405: An Anomaly Found

The attention of the Japanese puppet army was completely attracted to the south bank of the Zhujiachuan River, but what puzzled the Japanese puppet army troops was that the main force of the first reserve regiment did not appear on the south bank of the Zhujiachuan River, but more than 50 soldiers who did not carry any weapons appeared on the south bank to collect the bodies of the dead officers and soldiers of the second battalion of the first reserve regiment.

After seeing this scene, the Japanese troops did not shoot, and let these officers and soldiers collect the bodies of the dead officers and soldiers, and at the same time, Kunomura Momoyo immediately dispatched a team and began to take a truck to Baode County to collect the bodies of Japanese soldiers.

Although this squad did not carry any weapons, they had a mission, and their task was to check where the main force of the 1st Reserve Regiment was.

The Japanese squad soon came to the south bank of the Zhujiachuan River, and they also saw a large number of officers and soldiers of the First Reserve Regiment beginning to march towards the Zhujiachuan River, but these troops marched very slowly, which made the Japanese soldiers very puzzled.

In the face of the Japanese squad that came to collect the corpses, the Chinese troops also did not shoot, allowing them to carry the Japanese corpses into the truck.

For a morning, both China and Japan were collecting the bodies of each other's fallen officers and soldiers, and there was no clash between the two sides, but as the main force of the First Reserve Regiment began to assemble on the south bank of the Zhujiachuan River, Kunomura Momoyo had a vigilant expression on his face, he was afraid that the First Reserve Regiment would suddenly attack his own troops, and his attention was completely attracted.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Kunomura Momoyo received a telegram from the regimental headquarters of the 26th Infantry Regiment, which made Kunomura Momoyo greet all the women in Kuroda's family.

"Have you found the opponent's armored troops and cavalry troops, I have observed for a long time, it seems that there is no trace of armored troops and cavalry troops, this Sun Weiguo is extremely cunning, if these two troops are not in the main force, Sun Weiguo will definitely deploy them in the most important combat mission."

When the team leader who went to Baode County to collect the bodies of the Japanese soldiers returned, Kunomura Momoyo immediately approached him and asked.

"Wing Commander, I didn't find the opponent's armored troops and cavalry troops, these two troops don't seem to be following the main force of China." The squad leader immediately replied.

After hearing the news, Momoyo Kunomura had a solemn expression on his face, his brows furrowed tightly, and he realized that he had been fooled.

"Immediately contact Commander Cai of the Ninth Cavalry Division and ask him to immediately send troops to search to the east." Kunomura Momoyo immediately gave an order and said.

But as soon as he finished speaking, Commander Cai of the Ninth Cavalry Division, who was wearing the uniform of a major general, hurried to the front of Momoyo of Kunomura.

"Taijun, it's not good, it's not good, the troops of the Eighth Route Army have come over, and there are also the troops of the Jinsui Army, there are a lot of them, there are more than 4,000 people, they have cavalry, infantry, and armored soldiers, and one of our cavalry regiments has been disarmed by them."

After coming to Kunomura Momoyo, Master Cai's face was full of grief, and he said very sadly.

Kunomura Momoyo kept giving orders to Division Commander Cai, and Division Commander Cai had no choice but to send out more than 300 cavalry of the 28th Cavalry Regiment.

But just now, more than 300 cavalry of the 28th Cavalry Regiment came back, these cavalry were not only disarmed, but their horses were also taken away by the other party, they came back on foot, after hearing the report of their subordinates, Division Commander Cai realized that something was wrong, he did not dare to have the slightest delay, and hurriedly ran to report.

"Bagaya Road, why didn't you report earlier, I met the Zhina troops at ten o'clock, and now I report at twelve o'clock, your conscience is greatly damaged."

Kunomura Momoyo slapped Master Cai twice, and then he quickly forced himself to calm down, he took out the map, spread it on the ground and looked at it, with a solemn expression on his face.

"Immediately take your troops to Biguan County, General Kuroda Shigetoku has come here from Biguan County, you have to find General Kuroda Shigetoku before the Zhina troops, and persuade General Kuroda Shigetoku to return to Biguan County, if General Kuroda Shigetoku has an accident, you will die, die." Looking at Senior Cai, Kunomura Momoyo said in an indifferent tone.

He had received a telegram from the regimental headquarters of the 26th Infantry Regiment before, and he knew that Kuroda Shigetoku had set off from Biguan County with two infantry squadrons and a machine gun squadron and marched towards Baode County, while the first brigade of reinforcement reserves sent by Harem Jun was forcibly left in Biguan County by Kuroda Shigetoku to garrison.

You must know that this reserve first brigade is the closest unit to the battlefield, but they were left in Biguan County, which made Kunomura Momoyo very angry, and what made him even more angry was that Kuroda Shigetoku came to the front line without knowing whether he was alive or dead, and now the Chinese troops are obviously detouring back to Hequ County, maybe Kuroda Shigetoku will crash into the hands of the Chinese troops.

Kunomura Momoyo kept cursing Kuroda Shigetoku in his heart, and he also knew how dangerous Kuroda Shigetoku was now.

However, the Japanese reinforcements had not yet arrived, and the only reinforcements that arrived were left behind by Kuroda Shigetoku to garrison in Biguan County.

Now Kunomura Momoyo is not able to mobilize the troops on the north bank of the Zhujiachuan River, because once he mobilizes these troops to rescue Kuroda Shigetoku, the first reserve regiment on the opposite side will quickly overwhelm him, in which case the advantage he created will be lost, and the mobilization of Japanese troops to leave the river defense position to rescue Kuroda Shigetoku will not only fail to save Kuroda Shigetoku, but will also bring these troops into dangerous territory.

After thinking about it carefully, Kunomura Momoyo just sent the 9th Cavalry Division out, and at the same time he immediately contacted the headquarters of the 26th Infantry Regiment, hoping that the Japanese army in Biguan County could be dispatched to receive Kuroda Shigetoku to withdraw to Biguan County.

"Wing Captain, there are still many bodies on both sides that have not been transported back, should we continue to transport them?" The Japanese squad leader looked at Kunomura Momoyo and asked.

"Continue transporting." Kunomura Momoyo said it almost through gritted teeth.

The Chinese and Japanese sides continued to transport the bodies of each other's fallen officers and soldiers, and Kunomura Momoyo knew about the actions of the Chinese troops, but he could not do anything about it.

What he can do now is to hope that the reinforcements can come quickly, and at the same time, he hates his boss Kuroda Shigetoku, Kunomura Momoyo, if it weren't for Kuroda Shigetoku forcibly leaving the first reserve brigade in Biguan County, then Kunomura Momoyo has an extra infantry brigade in his hands, he will not be so passive.

In Maekawa Town, Hequ County, Kuroda Shigetoku had arrived here with more than 500 Japanese troops, and at noon, Kuroda Shigetoku made a short stop in Maekawa Town.

After lunch, Kuroda continued to set off with his troops, Kuroda rode on horseback, but the infantry chose to walk, which slowed down his march a lot.

But there was no way, the 26th Infantry Regiment was able to mobilize a squadron of armored vehicles that had already been sent to Hotoku Prefecture by Kunomura Momoyo, and Kuroda Shigetoku could only choose this method of marching.
