Shiro Inaba and the other two division commanders sat in the command center and were worried, not because they had no soldiers and had soldiers, but they could not be mobilized.

There are too many places they have to defend. They have to release troops to defend the entire Shanxi and some cities in Henan. If there are fewer troops, the Eighth Route Army will be able to eat immediately.

The most important thing is that the railway is too consuming. They have placed many troops there, but they are still bombed by the Eighth Route Army several times. Those soldiers cannot move at all, so they are worried now.

The troops from other places were unable to mobilize them. Now their base camp is all aimed at the south. However, the base camp also knew that the Eighth Route Army here had repeatedly attacked and agreed to send troops to kill the Eighth Route Army, so they transferred three divisions from the base camp, but they had to wait until they came over, and it was estimated that they would have to wait for about a month.

In a month, the three division commanders of the three divisions now don’t know if they can hold on. Now they know that the reason why the Eighth Route Army attacked so actively was that they had given 30,000 guns to the Eighth Route Army before, and that the train was robbed last time, a large amount of ammunition was replenished into the Eighth Route Army's troops. So now the Eighth Route Army has sufficient weapons and ammunition, so they immediately took those weapons and ammunition to attack them.

"We must shrink the defense line and cannot defend it all. If we guard it all, the losses will be greater then. We can give up some county towns. What we have to stick to now is the railway. As long as we guard the railway and wait until it is repaired there, our supplies can still go south!" Shigeru Sawada still insisted on this suggestion.

"It is also difficult to shrink the defense area. You must know that once our troops take action, the Eighth Route Army will follow us, and they will ambush us in various places, and the casualties may be greater!" Ichiro Shirata said to Shigeru Sawada.

"Then what do you think you will do? Are you waiting to die?" Shigeru Sawada asked back.

"I don't know what to do. The troops are not strong enough now. I suggest that a brigade troops be drawn from Shandong, but the headquarters disagrees. There are also guerrillas in Shandong. Moreover, Shandong is very important. There are industries there and our grain base, so the guerrillas there cannot be bigger." Ichiro Shida said helplessly.

"Zawadajun. I think we should transfer the corps from Zhongyang County to the railway side. The Eighth Route Army there is too active. It seems that Hu Bin's troops are there. It is safe to put a corps there." Inaba Shiro thought for a moment and said to Shigeru Sawada.

"Ah, do you care about Zhongyang County? If you don't care, there will be many troops there. Once they come out, it may be even more troublesome!" Shiro Sawada asked when he heard Shiro Inaba.

He wanted to withdraw the troops from various counties, but Zhongyang County was the exception. He knew that Zhongyang County was guarding a brigade of the Eighth Route Army, and that brigade was very capable of fighting. Once they came out, their Eighth Regiment was no match!

"Damn it!" Shiro Inaba heard Shigeru Sawada say this and touched his head. Of course he knew what it meant once the Eighth Regiment withdraws from Zhongyang Prefecture.

"No, the troops in Zhongyang County cannot withdraw. Once they withdraw, our railway will be subject to a huge threat. According to our intelligence, the 386th Brigade has cannons. Once they pull the cannons to the nearest railway, if they bomb for one night, the entire dozens of kilometers will be destroyed!" Shida Ichiro said immediately.

"Yes, I also think so. The troops in Zhongyang County cannot withdraw. Once they come out, it will be difficult for us to go back." Shigeru Sawada nodded and said.

"Hey, I'm wondering why the Eighth Route Army did not attack your Eighth Regiment. Was it really scared by the forces of one of your Regiment?" Ichiro Shirata suddenly thought of something at this time and looked at Shigeru Sawada and said.

"Maybe. We are a corps there, and we are guarding the county town. We are a division unit. They dare not come to fight. I blamed them for not going out to sweep the country before, but now they are so good. As long as they guard there, the Eighth Route Army will not know our background and dare not attack!" Shirou Sawada nodded and said.

"Damn it, what should we do? There is no soldiers to mobilize. Now we are only in Taiyuan, and we have to defend those supplies. Fortunately, there is no Eighth Route Army near us, otherwise it will be troublesome. We can't transfer troops from our Taiyuan. If there is something wrong with us in Taiyuan, we will be done!" Inaba Shiro touched his head and said worriedly.

"Hey!" The other two division commanders continued to worry there.

"There is another problem. We have no troops in Zhongyang County to block the Eighth Route Army in the mountains. I think that the troops may come out to move.

However, according to the information we have received before, they are not many people and will not threaten our railway. But we should not be careless. We will send telegrams to the troops there later, asking them to be vigilant and not let the Eighth Route Army bomb our railway again." Inaba Shiro said.

"Hi!" A staff officer next to him heard this, turned around and went out.

"I feel very dangerous there. We must transfer another brigade of troops there within 2 days, otherwise, I feel unsafe." Shida Ichiro said to him.

"Well, I know, I'm already preparing. Now I'll draw a small team from each unit and send it there. However, now we've just transferred to a squadron. The remaining troops are from nowhere." Inaba Shiro said.

"I'll draw a squadron's troops here!" said Shida Ichiro.

"Then I will also draw a squadron and send it from Zhongyang County. There is no problem with drawing a squadron there. If there are too many, I am also worried that the Eighth Route Army will attack the county town!" Shirou Sawada thought for a while and said.

"That's good. Let those squadrons go over now, just in case the night is long and there are too many dreams. Who knows when the Eighth Route Army will launch an attack!" Inaba Shiro said immediately.

"Okay!" Shigeru Sawada nodded and signaled to a staff officer behind him, and the staff officer was out immediately.

Soon, Abe Kurory, the commander of the Eighth Regiment of Zhongyang County, received a telegram from their division commander.

"Nani, I want us to send a squadron there. Damn it, how can I send it out? Send it to die? Which squadron will go there stupidly?" After seeing the telegram, Abe Kurora scolded in anger.

Now everyone knows that other troops have been attacked by the Eighth Route Army, but they have not yet. However, once they leave the county town, they dare not protect them. The Eighth Route Army will not stop fighting their own because they have done business with them. Besides, if they leave Zhongyang County, the Eighth Route Army will definitely not keep their promises anymore and will definitely fight!

"Damn it, go and call the three captains to come for a meeting. I'm in trouble now!" Abe Quoruliang said to a staff officer.

Soon the staff officer arranged for the correspondents to call on the three captains.

After a while, the three captains came over. After they sat down, Abe Kuroryu took out a telegram and handed it to them.

"Baga, no squadron in our brigade will go. Isn't this going to die? We don't know the two squadrons that were guarding behind us before. It's been so long. I've been wiped out and no one went back. We still went? Anyway, our brigade will definitely not go!" After seeing the telegram, the captain of the brigade, Gao Wei Longnan, immediately shook his head and said.

"My brigade won't go either. Last time, our brigade went to attack the Eighth Route Army. This time it wasn't our turn, right?" Sagawa Nose said.

"Our brigade will not go even more. Just a fool will go, so is the division commander. It's true that we have to take everything from protecting the railway. "Sabashiro Ishino said very dissatisfiedly.

"Baga, don't you go, can you ask me to take my guard squadron over?" Abe Quori said.

The other three captains were silent when they heard this, but they still agreed with what their corps captain said just now and asked his guard squadron to go over.

"We must go. If the division commander's order is not followed. If we don't send troops, we will be in trouble after we can't eat. Let's discuss which army to go!" Abe Quoriya immediately asked when he saw that they were silent.

"Captain, go to death, don't you not know? Or do you think the soldiers below us don't know. Their information is more informative than ours. Now our troops have been attacked in various places. I heard that there are still many casualties.

We have passed, that is asking for death. Do you think those soldiers will go? As soon as the news from us spread, those soldiers will fall ill immediately. Do you believe it?" Ishino Saburo asked as he looked at Abe Kurora.

"What do you think you should do? Don't you go? Do you think this is feasible?" Asbe Quorira looked at Saburo Ishino and questioned.

"Anyway, this matter is yours. You should think about how to push this command instead of thinking about executing such commands. I tell you, no one will go, and they are not stupid." Gaowei Longnan said while sitting aside.

"Baga, what do you want me to think of? The division commander passed the brigade commander and gave us an order directly. How can we push it? Ah!" Abe Quorira said.

The three of them heard it and looked ahead. As for what they were thinking, no one knew, but they just stopped responding.

They are very familiar with their own troops. When those soldiers hear this, they will pretend to be sick at the first time. If you force them to drag them over, it is impossible. If you want to kill one or two and show off your power, you may be shot by someone at night. Those soldiers are quite united, but it is not easy to deal with. (~^~)
