Chapter 707(1/2)
Japanese 11o Division.
At this moment, the Japanese army had already received the news that the main force of the 512th Brigade rushed back to Shexian, which instantly shocked the top leaders of the entire Japanese division.
They knew that the 512th Brigade would go back to Shexian, but they never guessed that it would come so quickly!
“Too fast!”
"This is so abnormal!"
"That's right, according to our previous predictions, the 512th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army should have been intercepted by the puppet troops in Xingtai area!"
"Damn it, this matter will be a trap for the 512th Brigade from beginning to end, right?"
The Japanese officers are not fools. At this stage, they can't guess that this is a trap for them by our army.
The reason why I didn't expect it before was that I was blinded by huge temptation and a series of victory.
"Baga!"
"The 512th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army!"
"The Eighth Route Army has great courage. In order to crack down on our army's fortress defense, we will give up the four counties!"
"Damn it, what's so great about the 512th Brigade? At worst, we can fight to the death with them. With the strength of our division, are we still afraid that the Eighth Route Army will not succeed?"
"That's right, this time I happened to teach them a hard lesson!"
"We will definitely be able to defeat it!"
For a moment, although most of the Japanese officers present were shocked, they still shouted the decisive battle.
A series of victories have completely rejuvenated the active offensive spirit hidden in their hearts, just like a flood breaking the dam.
If you want to recycle it, it will be difficult to recycle it.
"snort!"
The division commander Yoshio Kimura snorted coldly: "Even if the whole thing is a conspiracy of the Eighth Route Army, we have nothing to be afraid of. Now Shexian, Pingshun, Lucheng County, and Licheng County are all in my hands. What are their 512th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army?
They had nothing but those ten thousand people!”
Yoshio Kimura said in a deep voice: "So, we don't need to worry, we have to worry about it, but the 512th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army!"
After saying that, all the Japanese officers nodded and said yes.
In terms of force, the Japanese 110th Division and the 512th Brigade have roughly equal strength;
In terms of combat effectiveness, the 512 Brigade was slightly stronger, but the Japanese army was not much inferior.
And the most important thing is that the Japanese army has completely occupied several counties and has the advantage of terrain;
Therefore, the balance of this battle is still tilted towards the 11th Division of the Japanese Army.
For a moment, the originally panicked atmosphere disappeared between the division commander Yoshio Kimura's words.
“Report ~~~!”
At this moment, another good news came from the Japanese army.
"Report to the report to the telegram of the division commander and the commander of Hiromoto Toyota Brigade, they have concentrated thousands of troops to lay out several defense lines that look like iron walls in the area north of She County."
As soon as he finished speaking, bursts of shouts and surprises suddenly rang out in the entire Japanese command center.
"Yaxi, Yaxi!"
"The 512 Brigade really lost a lot of rice this time!"
"In this battle, our army will definitely win!"
~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~
The command center of the 11th Division of the Japanese Army.
At this moment, the brigade commander Hiromoto Toyota frowned, his face showing endless sadness.
His condition is completely different from the comfortable state of Yoshio Kimura, the commander of the 11th Division of the Japanese Army.
"What's wrong, something's wrong!"
"Although our army has been continuously deploying several defense lines, this will definitely not stop the 512th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army!"
"What should I do, what should I do?"
"Now our army should all evacuate from Shexian County, Pingshun County, Licheng County and Lucheng County, otherwise our army may be at risk of destruction!"
Brigade leader Hiromoto Toyota murmured to himself.
In fact, Hiromoto Toyota has no confidence in intercepting the main force of the 512th Brigade.
In terms of understanding the 512th Brigade, Hiromoto Toyota can be said to be the first person in the 11th Division, and no one knows the 512th Brigade better than him.
"Although our Japanese Imperial Army has many soldiers and a wide range of generals and occupy the terrain, the battles over the past few days are enough to show that our 11o Division is not a match for the 512th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army!"
Although Hiromoto Toyota sent a telegram to the division commander Yoshio Kimura, indicating that he had deployed several lines of defense, he clearly stated in the telegram that he should immediately withdraw from the four counties and make every effort to redirect Wu'an Prefecture to continue to maintain the original fortress defense plan.
But!
His suggestion was completely rejected by division commander Yoshio Kimura.
To be precise, it was rejected by the officers of the entire Japanese 11o Division.
The division commander Yoshio Kimura directly called back: "If our army directly withdraws from the land that has taken over the four counties, then our entire division will become a laughing stock of the Great Japanese Empire. Whether it is me personally or the entire division, it is definitely impossible for us to give up the county town that has been captured."
The current situation is no longer something that the Japanese 11th Division can retreat if they want to!
Furthermore, if the four counties were directly abandoned, the Japanese North China Front General Sugiyama-Yuan would not be spared.
It is easy to eat it, but it is definitely impossible to vomit it out directly!
The Japanese army did not have this habit!
Or, this is human nature!
~~~~~~
One hour later.
The first battalion of the 887th Regiment of the 512th Brigade, arrived in She County first!
The battalion commander of the first battalion, Song Xueyi shouted: "Brothers, attack!"
With a command, our soldiers immediately launched a fierce attack on the Japanese army like a storm.
"Kill~~~~!"
Although the Japanese army had already arranged a defense line here, the time was too short after all!
The fortifications it built were extremely simple and could not resist the fierce attack of our army. Not to mention shelling, even if it was a kick, it would be able to stomp the fortifications.
What's more, this is Shexian, which is the Shexian of my 512th Brigade. Our soldiers were familiar with it and were completely better than the Japanese army. The soldiers knew very well in their hearts where there were gaps in the corners.
Although the Japanese army resisted tenaciously, they still had enough people but lacked strength. They were no match for our army's tiger and wolf army.
Less than twenty minutes passed again.
Zhou Weiguo's Ministry of the 885th Regiment of the 512th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army, and all the more than 3 people rushed to the battlefield and immediately started fighting.
"Occurrence~~~!"
"Occurrence~~~~!"
"Occurrence~~~~!"
The offensive is like a rainbow and like a fire!
May 1, 1939, at 1 a.m.
The first line of defense of the Japanese army, break!
2 a.m.
The second line of defense of the Japanese army, break!
2:2 o'clock in the morning.
The third line of defense of the Japanese army, break!
The Japanese Hiromoto Brigade was defeated by our army in less than 2 hours.
~~~~~~
At this moment, all the officers and soldiers of the 11th Division of the Japanese Army were shocked!
"impossible!"
"This is impossible!"
"Why, why, why, why can't we stop the attack of the Eighth Route Army!"
"It's so scary, so scary!"
"It's simply unimaginable!"
