Chapter 373: Continuously captured by the Japanese army (Chapter 2 is here today)
"Inform me of Lieutenant General Ushijima Sadao, the commander of the 18th Division, and ask him to search for me the current location of Liu Feiyang's headquarters, and then notify the aviation force to cooperate with them in combat, and conduct air strikes first!"
"In this case, even the armored troops under Liu Feiyang's command cannot withstand the air strikes and annihilations of our Imperial Air Force!" "In addition, let the Guozaki detachment quickly replenish troops and weapons and equipment, including artillery troops and tanks.
Tank troops, and supplies of anti-tank guns!”
"Bagayalu!! The arrogance of Liu Feiyang's troops! This time we must kill them all! Eliminate them! The workers!"
"In short, don't be like that wimp Matsui Iwane and send out four divisions. You can't defeat Liu Feiyang's regiment-level troops!"
"Otherwise our 10th Army will only become a disgrace to the empire, a joke to foreigners, and ridiculed by those hateful China troops! And it will also improve their morale against us!"
"So Matsui Iwane dispatched four divisions, but there was no way to deal with Liu Feiyang's troops. We only need to dispatch two divisions, plus the support of the aviation force, and we can definitely annihilate them!"
"The final victory and glory must belong to our 10th Army!"
But a moment later, Lieutenant General Yanagi Heisuke issued another order to Yamada Shunichi, then Chief of Staff of the 10th Army.
"Hai!"
"Yes! Your Excellency, Commander!"
"By the way, regarding the matter of dealing with Liu Feiyang's troops, do you want to also report to the new Army Lieutenant General, the commander of the dispatched army, His Royal Highness Prince Jiuyan of Asaka Palace?"
Chief of Staff Yamada Junichi immediately paused and said respectfully.
"You can report it to him, but with His Highness's character, I'm afraid it will only make us speed up the annihilation of Liu Feiyang's troops. He may even scold you when you report it!"
"So you have to figure it out yourself!"
"Sigh! Also tell me where our troops have advanced to the capital of the China Army now?"
Lieutenant General Yanagi Heisuke continued.
"Hai!"
"Thank you, Commander, for the reminder!"
"As for our troops, with the cooperation of the aviation force, they have fully occupied Yuhuatai, the capital of the Chinese Army, and the battle at Guanghua Gate is also extremely fierce. However, I believe it will take less than two days to fully capture it.
The Chinese army is holding on to the Guanghua Gate, and we can capture it even tonight!"
Chief of Staff Yamada Shunichi quickly answered again.
"Nani! Is it still so long?"
"Give me the imperial troops to attack the Guanghua Gate where the Chinese army is holding, and issue an order to advance the battle. Let them capture the Guanghua Gate for me before nightfall tonight. It is best if they can give it to me within three hours.
Completed the combat mission and captured Guanghua Gate!"
"For these stupid China troops who have lost their morale and will to fight! Your offensive actions are really too slow. Your Highness has come over to ask me about it three times!"
"So please stop procrastinating the battle for me!"
"Otherwise I will definitely punish those troops who are not fighting well!"
"Because our latest combat mission is to fully occupy the capital of the China Army within three days and punish the China Army there!"
Lieutenant General Yanagi Heisuke was still very dissatisfied with the report from Chief of Staff Yamada Shunichi. After scolding him, he immediately issued the latest combat order again.
"Hai!"
"The damned China army is dead all over the ground."
"I will let our Imperial Army capture the capital of the China Army as soon as possible!"
Hearing this, Chief of Staff Yamada Junichi nodded in awe and agreed.
"Execute the order!"
Lieutenant General Yanagi Heisuke waved his hand and ordered in a cold voice.
"Hai!"
Chief of Staff Yamada Junichi suddenly lowered his head and responded, then turned around and took the order.
……………….
At this time, the headquarters of the Japanese 18th Division.
Lieutenant General Ushijima Sadao, the commander of the 18th Division, was walking back and forth in his headquarters with a gloomy expression.
"Did the cavalry search troops sent by the 12th Supplementary Regiment and the 22nd Cavalry Brigade find me the one Liu Feiyang was commanding?"
Army Lieutenant General Ushijima Sadao said in a gloomy tone to the anxious-looking Chief of Staff Yuta Tamamori beside him.
"Not yet! It's like they suddenly disappeared and their whereabouts are unknown!"
"Our search force has already conducted many careful close searches on the highway where the Kunisaki detachment encountered a sneak attack!"
"But not a single figure was found, let alone Liu Feiyang's armored troops!"
"So this is weird!"
"Because according to Major General Noboru Kunisaki's description, the troops Liu Feiyang led to ambush him included not only an armored unit, but also a small tank unit and a reinforcement regiment!"
"But for such a large team, we couldn't find any trace of them, so this is very strange!"
Chief of Staff Tamamori Yuta also responded with a puzzled look on his face.
"Do you feel that Major General Noboru Kunisaki is lying?"
Lieutenant General Ushijima Sadao asked immediately without thinking.
"Probably not!"
"Because their troops really lost a regiment of troops, and the commander of the 11th regiment, Fukushi Sota, was also killed in the bombing! The photos of their annihilation were all published by foreign newspapers and Chinese newspapers.
The newspaper is out!"
"So it shouldn't be a fake war loss, and when they came to us, there were still some wounded soldiers who needed medical treatment!"
"I was there in person!"
Chief of Staff Tamamori Yuta shook his head and responded.
"If this is the case, then let's ignore Liu Feiyang's troops for the time being. Now we must capture Wuhu where the Chinese Army is holding firm at night!"
"Ask the 56th Regiment and the 124th Regiment to increase their offensive intensity. No matter what the cost, Wuhu, which is held by the Chinese Army, will be captured tonight!"
"In addition, send a security force to guard against the sudden appearance and sneak attacks of Liu Feiyang's troops!"
"We will never allow the fatal mistake made by Major General Noboru Kunizaki and the troops under his command to occur!"
"I don't want to lose an entire regiment like him!"
"Finally, we must maintain contact with the aviation force, as well as Commander Matsui Iwane, Commander Yanagi Heisuke, and the Commander of the Dispatch Force, His Royal Highness Prince Asaka Palace Hatohiko!"
"We cannot fight alone!"
Army Lieutenant General Ushijima Sadao also became very vigilant in response to Chief of Staff Yuta Tamamori's accurate report, and issued orders to be on guard and alert, and to increase the offensive.
"Hai!"
"Yes! Your Excellency, Division Commander!"
"I will immediately speed up the attack and dispatch troops to guard against another surprise attack by Liu Feiyang's troops!"
Hearing this, Chief of Staff Yuta Tamamori quickly nodded and agreed loudly again.
Immediately afterwards, he left the headquarters in a hurry and went to carry out the orders of Army Lieutenant General Ushijima Sadao.
Army Lieutenant General Ushijima Sadao walked to the high-definition combat map and continued to study the next battle deployment and prepare for a surprise attack by Liu Feiyang's troops.
...
...
Time passes quietly,
Before night came that night, Wuhu was captured by the Japanese 18th Division.
The next day, Guanghuamen was also occupied by Japanese troops.
