When they arrived at Zhao Zhiguo's place, they not only did not guard the bridge, they also did not blow it up.

This has subverted the traditional defensive battle style.

Of course, Qin Dongsheng also understood that even if they established a bridgehead, they would not be able to withstand the bombardment of Japanese artillery.

On the contrary, their soldiers' mobility will be restricted because of the bridgehead. In the end, all their troops will die fighting to defend a bridge, but they will not cause much damage to the Japanese army.

At this time, it seems that Zhao Zhiguo's decision is indeed the best choice for the army.

It can avoid casualties on one's own side and can also kill and injure the Japanese army.

After breakfast, the Japanese troops were ready to prepare. After last night's rest, the morale of the Japanese soldiers had recovered a lot.

Their artillery has been deployed, and at this moment the little devil feels that he can do it again.

The Japanese army took turns to cover and launched an attack on the last few yards that Zhao Zhiguo and the others had defended yesterday.

They also learned Zhao Zhiguo's routine, opening the way with grenades, and then the infantry followed. A small group of soldiers formed a group, using machine guns to cover them as they broke into the courtyard.

There are a lot of little devil scenes, but there is no opponent they want in the yard.

Just last night, Zhao Zhiguo's troops evaporated, leaving not a single bullet for the little devil.

The little devils who had been full of murderous intent in the morning suddenly felt as if the battle was meaningless the moment they lost their target.

"So Zhao Zhiguo withdrew last night?" Tsutani Kazuo asked.

"It seems so. Zhao Zhiguo's troops are good at sneak attacks. Both sides were in peace last night. This can only mean that Zhao Zhiguo has already intended to retreat."

Zhao Zhiguo's troops were never idle, as if his soldiers were never tired.

As long as they still have the desire to fight, Zhao Zhiguo will lead his troops to appear in places where the Japanese army would not expect and attack them.

Even if the effect of the attack is not obvious, it will make the little devil's life uneasy.

"Is there any movement on the east coast?"

What Tsugu Kazuo was most afraid of was that last night, when Zhao Zhiguo gave up his position, he also chose to give up Anyang Town.

If his troops pursue Zhao Zhiguo into the mountains, this battle will be delayed indefinitely. As for when it will end, Tsuya Kazuo doesn't know.

"There is no movement at the moment. Zhao Zhiguo is good at hiding his troops. It is hard to say whether their troops are on the east coast."

Although Chuan Yuezhi was familiar with Zhao Zhiguo, he didn't know how capable Zhao Zhiguo was.

If Zhao Zhiguo made up his mind to retreat, Chuan Yuezhi would not be able to stop him.

"I don't believe Zhao Zhiguo just withdrew like this."

Tsutani Kazuo was a little depressed and angry. He waved his hands with the telescope and left his headquarters and came to the river.

"Your Excellency, Captain, be careful! Their marksmanship is not much worse than ours."

Seeing that their captain was in such a dangerous situation, several little Japanese guards quickly surrounded him.

"Get away from me. If I lose this battle, I would rather drown myself in the river than lose face in a small town of Anyang."

For Tsutani Kazuo, the honor of a soldier is more important than life.

Three to four thousand troops were used, and nearly a thousand people were lost, but Zhao Zhiguo was not harmed, which completely disgraced him.

Tsutani Kazuo threw off the protection of the guards and scanned the entire bridge with his binoculars.

There was no movement at all on the bridge, and there were no signs of military deployment on the houses on the other side of the bridge.

"It shouldn't be, why is this happening? No, there must be something wrong with this bridge!"

The less movement there is on the bridge, the more Tsutani Kazuo suspects that there is a trap on the bridge.

Zhao Zhiguo couldn't give up the bridge to them in vain.

"Is there a bomb buried under the bridge? When our people cross the bridge, they will take the opportunity to blow up the bridge? Yes, that is definitely the case. Zhao Zhiguo, I will not be fooled by you again."

Tsutani Kazuo thought he had seen through Zhao Zhiguo's conspiracy and started laughing loudly, a little crazy.

"Inform the artillery to destroy all the houses on the east bank near the bridge. Don't leave a complete wall!"

Tsutani Kazuo turned his attention to the houses on the other side of the river. As long as the buildings near the bridge were destroyed, his soldiers could go to the river to check whether there were bombs on the bridge.

"Boom boom boom"

The explosion was mixed with the sound of walls collapsing, and the gravel falling from above made Zhao Zhiguo a little annoyed.

Qin Dongsheng also squinted his eyes to prevent dust from entering his eyes.

"If we had a few cannons like this, we wouldn't be able to tolerate the little devils being so arrogant. They wouldn't even be able to enter Anyang Town."

All officers and soldiers, from top to bottom, were envious of the artillery fire possessed by the Japanese army.

They almost had the same idea as Qin Dongsheng. If they had cannons, they would have kept the Japs out of Anyang Town long ago.

In just a few minutes, the houses on the other side of the river near the bridge were turned into ruins, with not a single tile remaining.

Looking at the rising dust, Kazuo Tsutani felt an inexplicable excitement, as if destruction could bring him excitement.

Without waiting for his order, an officer arranged for soldiers to go under the bridge to check whether there were any bombs planted by the Chinese army.

However, the Japanese soldiers checked it carefully and found that there was no inspection under water, but there was not even a kilogram of explosives.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Tsutani Kazuo did not believe that his judgment was wrong. There must be a bomb planted by Zhao Zhiguo under the bridge.

"Zhao Zhiguo has always been cunning. He must have disguised the bomb. Yes, he disguised the bomb and coated it with fuel. It is the same color as the masonry used to build the bridge."

When the surrounding officers heard Tsutani Kazuo's thoughts, they felt that their commander was going crazy.

They all knew that Tsugu Kazuo acted like this because he was too afraid that Zhao Zhiguo's troops had left Anyang Town.

As a last resort, we had to send soldiers to check under the bridge again, but the results were the same.

Several Japanese officers around him did not dare to tell Tsutani the truth, fearing that he would not be able to accept the blow.

Kawazuki Tomo also knew that he must not tell the truth about the matter, so he whispered a few words in a soldier's ear.

The Japanese soldier nodded, and soon climbed up from under the bridge, holding an explosive pack in his hand and shouting: "Found it, found it..."

Since Tsutani Kazuo insisted on believing that there was a bomb under the bridge, Kawazuki Tomo had no choice but to make up a lie to stabilize Tsutani Kazuo's mood first.

"Hahaha, let me tell you, Zhao Zhiguo can still stump us?" Tsutani Kazuo was very proud of his intelligence.
