According to the intelligence department's monitoring, the high-power radio station behind the Japanese army started working again. The intelligence personnel used radio triangulation to locate the target fifteen kilometers east of the lower reaches of the Pasen River, which is near the location of Chen Xinmin and his reconnaissance company.

.

The principle of the triangulation method is to use two or more radio signal detectors to detect the target orientation at different locations, and then use the principles of triangular geometry to determine the approximate location and distance of the target.

After the reconnaissance company repelled the Japanese ambush by the river, the Japanese army again monitored the signal of the high-power radio station at this location, and then the Japanese army headquarters also responded.

Although the radio code has not been cracked and the content is unknown, it is certain that a very important unit must be hidden here, probably the artillery that has been hidden for many days.

"Guard, give me the map! The location is southwest 131-139, 89-94... isn't this where the hell we are?!"

Chen Xinmin immediately checked the map according to the location given by the intelligence, and quickly locked the specific location. Perhaps they were not far from the enemy's camp at this moment.

So he immediately asked the communications troops to contact the instructor's team in front, informing them to be more cautious, and then asked each platoon to select five or six soldiers, and they would conduct careful reconnaissance in groups of two with this point as the center of the circle, while the others stayed behind.

Be prepared for battle.

The soldiers did not dare to neglect and immediately began to check their equipment and prepare for battle. No matter how tired they were, they were still very energetic.

Originally, Li Shuanggui wanted to lead some people to conduct reconnaissance, but since there were not many soldiers left in the platoon and they were all more or less injured, the company commander rudely refused.

…

At the same time, the Japanese troops who were beaten and retreated at the mouth of the river gradually returned to the camp.

The disgraced Japanese soldiers sat on the ground, breathing heavily as if they were surviving a disaster. Their commander had been slapped several times and was still being reprimanded by superior officers in front of the soldiers.

In fact, they were part of the Takahashi Battalion responsible for protecting the artillery regiment. The reason why they went to the river to set up an ambush was actually to complete the perimeter defense order arranged by the battalion leader Tadayama Hoso, but they happened to encounter the New Army reconnaissance going down the river.

Company, then we had an encounter.

But the result was shocking. There were nearly 400 people in a squadron and a half, but only a hundred people came back alive. Did they encounter an attack by an enemy regiment? They were beaten so miserably...

The major who commanded the troops couldn't tell how many Chinese troops there were. Judging from the firepower, it would not be less than a battalion-level unit, but the opponent didn't seem to have that many people.

"Baga! You useless trash! You actually have the nerve to come back? It's simply a shame to the empire!"

"Hey..."

The slaps were heard and the curses echoed in the barracks. Tadayama Noboru couldn't figure it out and could only vent his anger on the unlucky major.

"What an idiot. You just escaped back to the camp. Did you ever think that the Chinese would follow the traces here? Do you want to kill us all!?"

Tadayama Hobo was so furious that he threw the kettle on the table into the opponent's face.

Let's not talk about being defeated. The key point is that you just run. Why run directly to the artillery camp? Isn't this clearly leading the way for the enemy?

"Captain, please calm down. The top priority is to report the situation to the alliance as soon as possible..."

"Yes, Sato-kun is right, so as not to fall into passivity."

Looking at the major's head that was almost swollen into a pig's head, the other officers were frightened and quickly tried to persuade him. After all, just giving him a lesson was not the answer.

Only then did Tadayama Homo stop. After venting his anger, he grabbed a cup of water and drank a few sips at random. He said: "First notify the artillery and let them prepare for the transfer, and then send a report to the commander of the regiment. Finally,

Then we can send out tactical guidance."

Several people present felt heavy in their hearts when they heard this. From the looks of it, the captain should be preparing to evacuate.

Now the entire camp is temporarily stationed in this mountain depression, which is less than 20 kilometers away from the frontline battlefield. In addition to the Zhongshan Brigade responsible for the defense, there are also 15 99 modified mountain guns and more than 200 artillerymen here.

Relying on the low-lying and complex terrain with dense shrubs, several waves of aerial reconnaissance planes sent out failed to detect them. In the past few days of fighting, they provided great artillery support to the frontline troops, and because of their rapid transfer, they were unable to detect them.

Can't figure out the exact location.

But because those guys who lost the battle are likely to directly expose their position, evacuating may be the wisest choice.

Soon, instructions came from the Japanese Joint Command, which ordered them to move immediately. They just refused the request to send troops for reinforcements, because at this time, the Chinese army had begun a new round of offensive, and the offensive was very fierce.

At the end of the telegram, a string of coordinates was added. Tadayama Homo saw that one was the first and the other two were bigger. The captain not only asked him to avoid small groups of enemy troops that might appear, but also mainly asked them to rush to the designated location.

Launched an artillery bombardment against the Chinese offensive forces.

The danger of going to reinforce the front line at this time can be imagined, but an order is an order after all, and the artillery has already begun to take action. Even if Tadayama Homo feels it is inappropriate, if he disobeys orders and chooses to evacuate here on the battlefield, he will probably go back.

In the end, I couldn't even save my life.

Order the Japanese soldiers to take action quickly. Although they are scattered and hidden in this mountain col, some of the disassembled mountain artillery components need to be carried by mules and horses, as well as the boxes of artillery shells. No matter how careful they are, hundreds of people

The movement is really quite big.

Little did they know, the Japs' actions had been completely exposed. Not only was the 88th Army's intelligence department monitoring the radio and discovering the movement, but a group of soldiers from the reconnaissance company who had been searched for had also accidentally stumbled into the vicinity of the Japanese camp.

Shadows of people kept flashing in the forest. Due to the urgent need to move quickly, the hidden sentries of the Japanese army were withdrawn, leaving only a few sentries to continue to guard. The others were packing their bags, completely unaware that the enemy was already in front of them.

"Good guy, there are quite a lot of people."

What came was a pathfinding team led by the instructor. They followed the footsteps of the fleeing Japanese army. After receiving accurate information, they became more convinced that the Japanese artillery was here.

Sure enough, after climbing over a hillside, the low-lying mountain col was the camp of the Japs. This group of Japanese troops was quite large and seemed to be gathering. A rough calculation estimated that there must be three to four hundred people.

The instructor suppressed the joy in his heart and stared at the Japanese calmly. He had to pay a considerable price to find these Japanese. Fortunately, everything was not in vain, and he was finally caught.

After ascertaining the general situation, he did not stay too long, leaving only a few soldiers to continue observation and surveillance, and the rest immediately returned to the main force, preparing to go back to Chen Xinmin to discuss countermeasures.
