Gangcun and the others have found the disease and want to prescribe the right medicine!

But Zhao Zhiguo and his army had a stubborn problem, and Gangcun could not find an old Chinese doctor to solve the problem.

"Only by dispatching more troops and forcing Zhao Zhiguo to retreat can we resolve the current crisis," the Japanese military staff suggested.

Take advantage of the Japanese army and avoid the advantages of the first military division.

What the little Japanese staff officer meant was that Zhao Zhiguo could fight however he wanted, and the Japanese army could fight however they wanted.

Everyone fights his own way, and whoever cares about his own affairs will fight back with all his strength.

"We currently do not have enough troops and materials to fight this battle." Gangcun tried his best to save his face.

Some time ago, he launched an attack on the First Military Division, but in the end he just saved face.

Zhao Zhiguo has built a systematic defense fortifications in the First Military Division and defended the road position. The defenses in the First Military Division can be held alive until the Japanese army runs out of supplies.

It is obviously impossible for the Japanese army to adopt the method proposed by the staff in the near future.

"Perhaps we can use artillery shells to clear the minefields set up by the Chinese army, and then let the soldiers deliver the supplies to the gun towers bit by bit."

When artillery shells fall, the road will inevitably be filled with potholes, and trucks can easily get stuck in the craters.

As long as the artillery shells clear the mines around the gun tower, it will be accessible to people.

Japanese trucks were parked out of sight, and supplies were delivered to the artillery tower manually at night.

Gangcun shook his head: "This situation has happened before. Zhao Zhiguo only needed to ambush three or five soldiers nearby to hit the soldiers transporting supplies."

Japanese troops have encountered this situation before.

Zhao Zhiguo only needed to send out a combat team. One soldier in the combat team held a submachine gun and the other two held rifles and set up an ambush near the road.

The Japanese and puppet troops carrying supplies were unprepared and would be beaten with submachine guns and suffer heavy casualties before they even had time to fight.

Heyun County's troops were wasted in the wild, which was very detrimental to the defense of Heyun County.

The little devil currently wants to not only solve the crisis in the gun towers, but also want to preserve the troops in Heyun County to avoid a shortage of troops in Heyun County.

"What if we voluntarily abandon part of the artillery towers and strongholds and use the idle troops for support?" a Japanese officer suggested.

The artillery towers and strongholds forced the Japanese army to allocate a considerable portion of their forces for defense.

If no solution is found to the current situation, each stronghold may be destroyed one by one by Zhao Zhiguo's troops, and the soldiers inside will also be wiped out.

It would be better to voluntarily give up part of the force and turn the vacated troops into a mixed force. Each squad will be commanded by the Japanese army and be responsible for supporting the threatened strongholds and artillery towers outside the city.

"If we take the initiative to give in, Zhao Zhiguo's troops will inevitably push further." A Japanese officer disagreed.

A war is imminent, and if the Japanese army retreats voluntarily, their morale will inevitably be damaged.

Especially the puppet army. When the puppet army saw that the Japanese army took the initiative to avoid Zhao Zhiguo, they subconsciously believed that the Japanese army was not Zhao Zhiguo's opponent.

The puppet troops, who were just outsiders, would take the initiative to surrender or even resist the Japanese army when the First Army Division attacked Heyun County.

The Japanese army wanted to make use of all these cannon fodder and bring out the final value of the cannon fodder.

"The Imperial Army can only advance but not retreat. Retreating will damage the honor of His Majesty the Emperor."

In this regard, little devils are often used to pretending to be fat.

Even if it is a defeat, they will try their best to turn it into a small victory. This is a matter of face that their army cannot afford to lose.

"If the supply problem is not solved for another three days, the gun tower will belong to Zhao Zhiguo at any time."

The more realistic problem is that the defenders in the gun towers are starving.

And it’s not just one gun tower that is starving, there are a total of eight gun towers where the Japanese and puppet troops are starving, and today is the first day.

"Notify Heyun County and let them plan to withdraw the troops' artillery towers and strongholds. After withdrawing the troops, they will gather back in Heyun County and form a mixed force to be responsible for supporting the remaining artillery towers and strongholds outside the city that have been attacked."

Gangcun made a prompt decision.

It's not that he doesn't care about the honor of the Imperial Army and their face that His Majesty the Emperor cannot see.

But Zhao Zhiguo's sense of oppression in Heyun County is getting stronger and stronger.

If the Japanese army wasted all its troops on the outskirts of Heyun County, Heyun County was lost, and all the Japanese soldiers were killed by Zhao Zhiguo, then the honor and face would be even less valuable.

After the Japanese and puppet troops, who had been hungry in the artillery tower for a day, received the order to retreat, they felt like they were on the verge of an amnesty!

That night, the little devil packed up his belongings and did not take the main road. He walked more than ten miles out of the wilderness before he dared to go to the main road.

The observation posts and combat teams of the Third Brigade were deployed near the highway and were not aware of the Japanese retreat.

At dawn, there was a different kind of quietness in the blockhouse.

"No, why do I feel that there is something missing in today's turret compared to yesterday?"

"The plaster flag, the plaster flag that the little devil planted on the turret is gone."

Any army regards the military flag as an honor and symbol. It is impossible for the Japs to leave the plaster flag behind if they withdraw.

"Yes, where is the plaster flag? It didn't run away, right?"

The most eye-catching symbol on the Japanese gun towers is their plaster flag.

"It's very possible, but it doesn't rule out that it's a trap. We've been blocking them for a whole day. They may be luring us to take the initiative so that they can make the last ditch effort."

Of course, the puppet troops in the artillery building would not do such a smart thing, but the little Japanese soldiers would really jump over the wall in a hurry.

The little Japanese soldiers can coerce the puppet army and make the puppet army make the last resistance like them.

"I want to touch them and have a look. If they really ran away, aren't we just wasting time here?" the soldier said.

Another soldier thought for a while: "Wait a minute and let them send a combat team to cover us. I will accompany you to take a look."

After taking cover, the soldiers reached the bottom of the turret.

The blockhouse was deserted.

"Be careful the little devil leaves a trap!"

The two soldiers entered the turret under cover, leaving only tables and chairs and other items that had nothing to do with the battle. Guns, ammunition and even the telephone were removed.

"Damn it, sir, this little devil left at night and he cleaned up so cleanly. There's nothing useful at all."

More than one gun tower, the Japanese army abandoned a total of more than a dozen gun towers and seven strongholds.

After Zhao Ziming heard the news, he couldn't help but frowned: "The Japanese army took the initiative to shrink its troops, which is not a good thing!"

Although they gave up their strongholds and gun towers, the Japs retained their strength.

The retreat of these troops into Heyun County will cause huge casualties to the troops attacking Heyun County.

"Brigade commander, what should we do now? Should we continue to use the current method and launch an attack on the deeper gun towers?" asked the regimental commander.

"All troops are suspending their operations. We must first arrange troops to demolish the artillery towers and strongholds abandoned by the Japanese army. We cannot allow the Japanese army to come back."

Zhao Ziming made a plan to attack Heyun County's defeat in the First Army Division.
