Chapter 150: The 4th Brigade (2) should be wiped out and the remaining brave men will chase the defeated enemy!

"clear!"

Luo Youdu nodded, and then immediately walked away to deploy.

Xu Rui raised his telescope and observed the defensive position that the Japanese were hastily constructed hundreds of meters south.

"This time, I'm going to take your little Japanese off in one go."

Xu Rui said with a sneer.

Sure enough, the main force of the 303rd Regiment of the Jinsui Army, who was advancing south from the Huting stronghold, launched an attack preparation, and the Japanese discovered it.

The devils who were defending the north front immediately sent someone to report to Taro Miyamoto.

At this time, Taro Miyamoto and Chief of Staff Colonel Kenjiro Ikeda placed the command center on a mountainous land on the side of the roadside to the north of the first line of Tiantian.

Condescending, serving as a temporary defense command.

Although he withdrew his troops to return south, Taro Miyamoto was also ready.

He still has nearly 4,000 troops in his hand, which made Taro Miyamoto feel that even if the main force of the 303rd Regiment at the Huting stronghold came south, it would not be possible to eat the remaining troops he commanded for at least four hours, right?

However, the sound of gunfire rumbling from the north immediately attracted Miyamoto Taro's attention.

"Tap, tapa, tapa, tapa."

The sound of running was coming from the roadside, and a Japanese staff officer rushed to report to Taro Miyamoto and Kenjiro Ikeda: "Your Excellency General, Chief of Staff, the main force of the enemy at the Huting stronghold has moved south, and it has approached the Yamaguchi North to the north of the first line of heaven and is about 15 kilometers north of the Yamaguchi and hundreds of meters north."

"At present, the enemy seems to be preparing for an attack. I'm afraid it will be a fierce attack on me!"

After a pause, the Japanese staff officer continued, "In addition, the soldiers defending the northward front observed that the enemy's artillery positions were being built."

"I understand! Order the captain of Shigefuji Regiment to the north to defend, Shigefuji Jiyu, to command the remaining troops of his corps and to hold on to me."

Taro Miyamoto gritted his teeth and said with a serious expression: "The enemy is terrible to have a general attack. He must hold it up for me in the first wave, and don't be stingy with ammunition."

"Yes, Your Excellency General."

When the Japanese staff member who reported the situation changed drastically when he heard Taro Miyamoto say this, he quickly paused heavily.

"Go!"

Taro Miyamoto waved his hand and said in a voice.

"Yes, General!"

The Japanese staff who reported the situation ran wildly.

After the Japanese staff went down to pass the order, Chief of Staff, Colonel Kenjiro Ikeda, said with a serious expression, "Genius General, Xu Rui is going to attack me."

"Can we stand it?"

Taro Miyamoto gritted his teeth, looked north, and said, "We must hold on if we can't stand it. We can't stand it. At this distance, we were quickly beaten to the inside of the Yishitian by the opponent."

"Send a message directly to the 41st Infantry Regiment and let them reach Jinghai County as soon as possible."

After a pause, Taro Miyamoto said again: "In addition, send a message to the headquarters and request tactical guidance."

"Now, the 41st Infantry Regiment may not be able to relieve near-thirst, so we need other ways of reinforcement. Otherwise, the more than 3,900 Imperial Army soldiers who have left me will probably fail."

Upon hearing this, Kenjiro Ikeda did not expect that Taro Miyamoto's words might have no longer resisted Xu Rui's confidence in General Attack. He said all these words, isn't they also a desperate struggle on the eve of failure?

But now there is nothing to do, so I have to ask Shinozuka Yoshinan to find a way to save them.

"Yes, Your Excellency General."

Kenjiro Ikeda knew that it was a time for life and death, and it seemed that they still had more than 3,900 people in their hands.

However, it has been voluntarily retreating south and within a range of 1.5 kilometers north of the first line of sky.

The depth of the defense suddenly weakened, and the enemy commander Xu Rui immediately dispatched the main force at the Huting stronghold to advance southward.

Now, the opponent has built an artillery position and is ready for the general attack.

Once the first wave of defense cannot stand, the next battle may be very difficult to fight.

Moreover, their more than 3,900 imperial troops may not last an hour.

After all, the opponent's gunfire advantage is obvious.

Therefore, I can only ask Shinozuka Yoshinan again for tactical guidance.

Soon, Kenjiro Ikeda immediately ordered the communications officer Jiro Inaba and immediately sent a report to the First Army Command, requesting tactical guidance.

In less than two minutes, the First Japanese Army Command of Taiyuan City.

Yoshinan Shinozuka, who was paying attention to the battle situation in Jinghai County in northwest Shanxi, soon received an urgent report from the headquarters' communications officer, Major Toshiki Kitamura.

"Miyamoto Taro's situation is not optimistic!"

After reading the latest telegram from Taro Miyamoto, Yoshinan Shinozuka handed the telegram to Major General Miyano, the chief of staff, who was standing beside him, and said with a gloomy face.

"Commander."

After Miyanodao finished reading the content of the telegram, he looked at the map and said in a voice: "The Jinghai County has been lost."

"I am afraid I can't count on whether I can regain the body of the Palace of Fushimi. As the Kyokai Prefecture is lost, Miyamoto Taro's troops have at least completely lost their way out."

After a pause, Miyano Doichi continued, "Now, he is blocked by the enemy again in a depth of less than two kilometers."

"Xu Rui has already started preparing for the general attack. What should we do?"

Yoshinomi Shinozuka looked at the map and asked Miyano Doji: "Where is the 41st Infantry Regiment now?"

"Here, Commander."

Miyano Dao pointed to a location on the map, and then said in a voice: "It's still an hour and a half away from Jinghai County."

"Far-distance water cannot quench the near thirst. Even if you enter Jinghai County now, you will probably have to fight for a few hours if you want to retake Jinghai County. Attack the airport, you will capture a battalion of the Eighth Route Army New First Regiment and a united team of the Cavalry Battalion of the 303rd Regiment of the Jinsui Army, with elite combat power. Otherwise, in such a short time, Jinghai County would not be captured by the enemy."

Shinozuka Yoshinan punched the table, then gritted his teeth and said, "Miyamoto Taro is too careless and underestimated the enemy. Why did he send only one squadron to guard the bridge at Xiushui River Bridge?"

"If the Xiushui River Bridge has not been lost, they can retreat to the south bank of the Xiushui River Bridge at any time through a line of sky, and then return to Jinghai County smoothly, and they will not be so passive now."

Miyano Doichi said in a narrow voice: "Commander, it's useless to say this now."

"It seems that the situation is not optimistic. The enemy's general attack on Miyamoto Taro may be launched in a few minutes, and there is not much time left."

When Shinozuka Yoshino heard this, he looked at the map, and then asked Miyano Dora: "Miyano, what can you do to quickly support Miyamoto Taro?"

"The 41st Infantry Regiment cannot quench near thirst and cannot rely on it in a short period of time. Now, we can only strictly order Taro Miyamoto to stand firm and wait for assistance. We send air force fighters to attack the opponent's main force from the Huting stronghold. Unfortunately, there are no airborne troops in our first army, otherwise we can airdrop paratroopers to Heyuan County, or behind the Huting stronghold, and cut off the enemy's rear, and there may be a glimmer of hope."

Miyano Dao thought for a while and said bitterly.

"That's impossible, we don't have paratroopers to airborne."

Yoshinomi Shinozuka shook his head and said, "If there were any, we would have used it long ago."

"That will only allow fighter jets and bombers to take off in turn and provide air support to Taro Miyamoto, Your Excellency Commander."

Miyano Daoichi said.

"Then let it be for the time being!"

After thinking about it, Shinozuka Yoshinomiya was the one who could give Miyamoto Taro the greatest support.

"Yes, Commander!"

Seeing this, Miyano Doichi immediately sent people to inform all fighter jets and bombers that could be dispatched and dispatched in turn, cooperating with the Japanese troops commanded by Miyamoto Taro from the air to stand by waiting for assistance.

Soon, Taro Miyamoto, who received a call from the First Japanese Army Command, said bitterly to Chief of Staff Kenjiro Ikeda: "The commander's support can only do this."

"Your Excellency General, we can only rely on ourselves now."

Kenjiro Ikeda said helplessly, "Even if the fighter plane is dispatched, carrying air bombs, and refueling, it will take time."

"We can only rely on ourselves now."

Just as Taro Miyamoto nodded, a harsh whistle came.

"Swish swish swish swish swish swish swish swish!"

A harsh whistle came in a dense way, and then more than a kilometer north of them, dense explosions immediately exploded one after another.

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!!!"

The dense explosion sounded, immediately attracting the attention of Taro Miyamoto and Kenjiro Ikeda.

"Xu Rui takes action so quickly!"

Taro Miyamoto's face changed drastically as he heard the dense explosions.

"Your Excellency General, Your Excellency General!"

Soon, a Japanese staff member urgently reported that "the enemy concentrated at least twelve 82mm mortars, 6 75mm caliber artillery, three Type 92 infantry cannons and at least twenty secret weapons that could eject explosive packs, and violently bombarded the defensive positions in the north."

"Colonel Shigefujiji Okay requests artillery support!"

When Taro Miyamoto heard this, he frowned and said, "There is no artillery support, so let him use the concentrated mortar to launch a counterattack."
