Since the commander of the Japanese Thirteenth Division, Ogisu Tatebing, led his Japanese division and launched an attack on the positions around Jiangyin City, his command and operations were very smooth, especially

With the assistance of a large number of Japanese aircraft groups and the coordinated support of tanks and chariots,

What's more, it is like an unstoppable force, occupying many villages and towns around Jiangyin City.

"Your Excellency, Division Commander! According to the intelligence sent back by our intelligence agents lurking in the city of Jiangyin in China, the remnants of the 111th Division of the China Army took the lead after resisting two offensive operations by our 65th Infantry Regiment.

The remnants have evacuated! The troops taking over their defensive operations now are the troops of the 112th Division, the main division under the 57th Army of the Northeastern Army!"

"They have just taken over the defense. Their weapons and equipment seem to be much worse than those of the 111th Division of the China Army. They are a well-known poor force and are also called the Straw Sandals Army by other troops. However, they have more than 8,000 troops stationed this time.

!”

"I can lead the 58th Regiment as a forward testing force to test the combat effectiveness of this and that local force!"

"Please direct!"

........

Takada Shintake, the commander of the 58th Infantry Regiment, reported to the division commander Ogisu Tatehei.

Because he was assigned to the position of reserve force by the division commander Ogisu Rihei.

Therefore, no offensive operations have been launched on the front line of Jiangyin operations yet.

Therefore, he is also keen on the results of the other alliances and wants to attack.

"Sou Ga! China Army Straw Shoes Troops?"

"Hahaha! Interesting! Then let me see the combat effectiveness of this straw sandal army and that one!"

"You immediately lead your regiment and coordinate the 65th Infantry Regiment to conduct joint operations. Let us see if these poor troops of the China Straw Shoes Army can withstand our day and night attack!"

"In addition, let our Imperial Air Force carry out night air raids and bombings. I want these Chinese troops to be worried even when they sleep, and maybe they can be severely damaged! Then after daylight, our attack will become easier!"

"Go! I approve your participation!"

"Colonel Takada!"

.........

After listening to the request from commander Shintake Takada to go into battle,

The division commander, Ogisu Tatehei, was also in a happy mood and approved it with a wave of his hand.

Regarding the combat effectiveness of the 112th Division of the Northeastern Army, after he heard that it was a local force with inferior weapons and equipment,

He didn't take it to heart at all,

Not to mention the local troops, even if he had to face the troops of the German Arms Master, he would not be worried at all.

For him, the combat effectiveness of his Thirteenth Division can completely defeat any German armored division unit in the national army.

This is his confidence and confidence,

This is also the source of his arrogance.

Even more so in the future, he led an army of Japanese soldiers from Tongji Gate into Nanjing, the capital, and carried out burning, killing, looting, and all kinds of evil acts, which laid the foundation for Zun.

"Hai!"

"Don't worry! Your Excellency, Division Commander!"

"Even without the 65th Regiment taking action, my 58th Regiment can easily defeat the Chinese Army in these places!"

"Don't talk about them, even the Central China Army that fought against us, Ebi and we were defeated steadily and lost a lot of battlefields!"

"So I will definitely be able to lead the army very quickly and annihilate these vulnerable local Chinese troops!"

"The final victory will definitely belong to our imperial army!"

.......

Shintake Takada, commander of the 58th Infantry Regiment,

After hearing that the division commander Ogisu Tatehei approved his request to fight,

His eyes suddenly lit up, and he made a promise with full confidence.

For him, he really doesn't take the national army into consideration, whether it is the main force of the Central Army or the local troops, he doesn't take it into consideration.

He believed that as long as he led his troops into battle, he would be able to achieve immediate success and achieve the final victory.

Moreover, he has been invincible too many times since he followed the division commander Ogisu Rihei. Too many national army troops were defeated miserably at the hands of their 13th Division.

Those who died, those who were injured, those who fled... there was not a single unit that could fight.

So this is the reason why he is arrogant and does not pay attention to the 112th Division of the Northeast Army.

After getting used to big victories,

It will make you underestimate the enemy more and more.

"Sigh! Okay! I like a confident general like you!"

"Go! I'm waiting for your good news. As long as you can lead the troops to occupy the China position here, then I will definitely ask you for credit at the base camp! And I will also reward you!"

"Colonel Takada!"

........

Division commander Ogisu Tatehei was very satisfied with the commander of the 58th Infantry Regiment, Shintake Takada.

So he also praised the other party.
