"Sir, we must have been deceived!" The Chief of Staff analyzed with a calm face!

"The war zone said in the information given to us: the main force of the Unique Regiment has returned to the aid base and has fought with the national rescue army. The Unique Regiment suffered heavy losses. Judging from the battle tonight, these information are all fake. In order to tempt us, the Unique Regiment took the initiative to attack and transferred us out of the position and eliminated us in the movement, and deliberately released fake information!"

"Their main force not only did not leave the railway line, but also set up a net here to wait for us to take the initiative to drill into their pockets!"

When the Chief of Staff was about to continue speaking, another radio operator hurried in and interrupted: "Sir, our contact with the Third Battalion's radio station was suddenly interrupted, and no matter how we called them, they did not respond!"

After hearing this, the Chief of Staff became more determined to his judgment: "The attack of the Unique Regiment is too fierce. We agreed with the Third Battalion that something happened before they arrived. Sir, I think the Third Battalion is the same as the First and Second Battalion, and there is a lot of danger. We must immediately order the reinforcements to their troops to return on the same route, otherwise they will definitely hit the guns of the Eighth Route Army!"

Colonel Okamoto showed a look of fear after hearing this.

The troops left on the railway line in the only regiment have proved their strength to themselves by fighting. If the troops of the third battalion really hit their guns, the reinforcements will definitely be in danger.

At this moment, Colonel Okamoto didn't bother to think about where the Unique Regiment came from. He was anxious to order in line with the Chief of Staff's eyes: "You are right, we must make the worst plan. If the Third Battalion really encounters an unexpected accident, the troops that reinforce the Third Battalion will definitely become the next target of the Unique Regiment!"

"The troops left on the railway line of the only regiment are too strong, and their strength and firepower are in their hands. If the reinforcements are too disadvantaged if they fight an encounter, they will suffer too much!"

"Sir, wise!" The Chief of Staff quickly took the order.

Colonel Okamoto continued to order: "This matter is too big. The only regiment hid so many troops along the railway without hiding us. We lost nearly three infantry brigades in one night. The battle of breaking the deadlock was also defeated. I must report to the commander immediately and let the military department hold the intelligence department responsible!"

The Japanese Army headquarters in Taiyuan, since the Eighth Route Army launched a raid, only one night ago, the army commander slept soundly.

The main forces of the only regiment were dragged to the base. As long as the Okamoto United successfully counterattacked last night, the railway line they protected would lose its threat. The Okamoto United could send its main force to reinforce other battlefields, and then concentrate its superior forces to defeat other Eighth Route Army attacking the railway line.

As soon as dawn, the commander got up from the bed and planned to go to the command center to welcome the good news sent by the Okamoto United.

Entering the war room, the expected good news did not appear.

At the beginning, the commander was not too worried.

Although the main force of the Unique Regiment returned to the aid base, there was still a main battalion of troops along the railway. In addition, the hundreds of local troops and guerrillas sent by the Unique Regiment along the railway, the Eighth Route Army that the Okamoto United had to deal with must have exceeded one thousand people.

Although the Okamoto Regiment had strong military strength and several times stronger equipment than the remaining troops of the only regiment, what they wanted to fight was mobile warfare and night warfare, which were both combat methods that the Eighth Route Army was good at, so they did not end the battle so easily in a short period of time.

At 8 o'clock in the morning, the commander had finished his breakfast, and the Okamoto United had not sent any good news.

The commander faintly noticed something was wrong, but he couldn't think of something wrong.

The Chief of Staff also began to be anxious. He wanted to send telegrams to the Okamoto United several times to ask about the situation, but they were all suppressed by the commander.

If the battle between the Okamoto United and the Unique Regiment reached a critical moment, the military headquarters will not only not be able to help them in the past, but will also put pressure on them, which will not help the Okamoto United and the Unique Regiment.

At nine o'clock in the morning, when the commander himself could hardly wait, the communications officer finally appeared at the door of the war room.

"Is the Okamoto United's victory report here?" The Chief of Staff was very anxious and went up to ask directly.

The communications officer had a very serious expression on his face and immediately shook his head: "It was a telegram sent by Okamoto United, but it was not a good news. Something happened to Okamoto United!"

"Nani?" the chief of staff shouted incredible face.

Snatch the telegram from the communications consultant, take a quick look at three lines at a glance.

The expression of expectation on his face was first replaced by seriousness, then became more and more solemn, and finally walked towards the commander with a heavy face.

"Sir, we were deceived by the only group!"

While reporting, he handed the telegram to the commander: "The main force of the single regiment did not return to the aid base at all. They have been lurking along the railway line. After the Okamoto United took the initiative to attack, they used mobile warfare and guerrilla warfare to eliminate them!"

"Bageya Road, this is impossible!" The commander completely distrusts the Chief of Staff's report.

But he still habitually took the telegram from the Chief of Staff. As soon as he saw it, his left hand clenched into a fist.

After reading it all, he first punched the table, and then shouted with anger, "This is absolutely impossible. If the main force of the only regiment is really still along the railway, what kind of unit is the Eighth Route Army that the National Salvation Army eliminated!"

"Our people are hiding in the combat troops of the National Salvation Army and witnessing all the battles between the National Salvation Army and the Unique Regiment. Even the number of Eighth Route Army captured by the National Salvation Army is clearly known, so there will definitely be no problem!"

The Chief of Staff analyzed: "But it is also true that Okamoto's corps lost three infantry brigades overnight. If the main force of the only regiment was not along the railway, who would have killed so many imperial troops?"

The deputy chief of staff on the side suddenly spoke: "Will other troops reinforce the unique regiment?"

The commander was worried that he could not find a reason to refute the Chief of Staff's judgment. As soon as he heard the Deputy Chief of Staff's analysis, his eyes lit up: "This possibility is not ruled out!"

"The Eighth Route Army participated in the raid war in Shanxi alone, and the entire Shanxi has become a mess. It is not impossible for the other Eighth Route Army to reinforce the only regiment while the chaos is in trouble!"

"Call the intelligence officer right now."

"Kill three infantry brigades of Okamoto's corps in one night. Even if the opponent defeats them one by one, only half of our brigade will be killed at a time. The battle will be completed in a few battles, and then at least three thousand main forces will be required."

"So many troops entered the unique regiment base and carried a lot of heavy weapons. It is absolutely impossible to be silent!"

In less than five minutes, the intelligence officer stood in front of the commander sweating profusely, obviously running all the way.

Seeing the commander's expression solemn, he immediately realized that something big had happened and asked with a guilty look on his face: "Sir, is there anything wrong with you when you are looking for a low position?"

"Where are other Eighth Route Army troops entering the base area of ​​the Unique Regiment and the railway section they attacked within three days!" The commander said bluntly when he asked.

The intelligence officer didn't know why the commander had such a problem. He quickly recalled the information he had received in his mind over the past few days, and then shook his head and replied: "No!"

"Because the National Salvation Army is attacking the base of the Unique Regiment, the counterattack of the Okamoto corps is related to whether the counterattack operations of the Shanxi garrison can open a breakthrough. The intelligence department has specially strengthened the intelligence collection efforts of the base of the Unique Regiment."

"In the past few days, except for the main force of the Unique Regiment returning to the base area, the Unique Regiment has dispatched hundreds of local troops and guerrillas from the base area to reinforce the railway line, and no other troops have been mobilized."

The commander's face suddenly became very serious, and he stared at the intelligence officer and continued to ask: "Do you dare to be responsible for what you said just now?"

The intelligence officer nodded immediately: "I dare to issue military orders. In the past three days, no other troops have entered the base of the only regiment, except for the National Rescue Army. Please give me a clear understanding!"

"Then what happened to this telegram?" The commander threw the telegram in his hand to the intelligence officer and stared at him and questioned.

The intelligence officer was frightened by the commander and quickly picked up the telegram from the ground, looking at it ten lines, trying to quickly figure out what made the commander so angry...

After reading it, although the intelligence officer understood it, he was also scared by the contents in the telegram...

The main force of the only regiment had already returned to the aid base and had fought with the national rescue army. The troops suffered heavy losses. It was impossible for the troops to eat up three infantry brigades of the Okamoto Regiment in one night.

But if the enemy that severely damaged the Okamoto regiment was not the only regiment, it means that the commander's suspicion was correct. There were indeed other Eighth Route Army secretly sneaking into the National Rescue Military Defense Zone, so the commander asked the question just now when he saw him.

Although the intelligence department provided wrong information to the military headquarters several times, the military commander's problem just now was too simple.

Thousands of troops entered the base of the unique regiment, and even if the intelligence personnel lurked there were blind people, they could detect the problem.

But I have not seen any relevant information in the past few days, which means that no other troops have entered the base of the unique regiment.

Facing the commander's eyes that could almost be fire-breathing, he returned: "Sir, I don't know who was severely injured by the Okamoto Regiment, but I dared to guarantee his life. In the past three days, no other Eighth Route Army entered the base of the Unique Regiment."

"Three Eighth Route Army troops were active around the base of the Unique Regiment. They were fighting against the Imperial Army along the railway and could not withdraw troops to reinforce the Unique Regiment."

"And these three Eighth Route Army are the main forces just reorganized by local troops, with a total strength of no more than 1,500 people, and even mortars are rarely equipped, let alone mountain cannons and infantry run away."

"Even if the Eighth Route Army of these three regiments reinforced the Unique regiment, they did not have the strength to severely damage the Okamoto United in such a short period of time!"

After listening to the analysis of the intelligence officer, the commander began to doubt his analysis just now, but he could not think of other reasons, so he could only stare at the intelligence officer and ask: "Who do you think the Okamoto United was severely injured?"

"A such a strong army suddenly appeared along the railway. Your intelligence department knew nothing, causing the Okamoto United to lose three brigades overnight. If you really want to hold the responsibility accountable, your intelligence department will be blamed!"
