Chapter 618: Japanese Army: The Eighth Route Army has no way out

"Commander, telegram from the Cavalry Regiment!" A guard from the headquarters galloped over on a war horse, then got off his horse and handed the telegram to Zhou Weihan.

Zhou Weihan quickly browsed the telegram, clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Great, a great victory in Qinglongji, the cavalry regiment completely wiped out the main force of the Japanese cavalry fourth brigade!"

"Inform the two cavalry regiments that the Japanese and puppet troops are approaching them. The troops will continue to hide in Qinglongji Village, and they will be at odds with the first regiment. They will hold on until the outside troops arrive!"

"In addition, Kuroshima Morita needs to be well protected. I will be of great use in the future. Let the headquarters send a report immediately!" Zhou Weihan directly dictated the contents of the telegram.

"Yes!" The guard took the order and left.

At present, all the troops are divided into two, one on the inside and one on the outside. At the same time, the reconnaissance company serves as the eyes of the entire army, following behind the Japanese army and reporting on the movements of the Japanese army at any time. This also keeps the headquarters' radio on to ensure the accuracy of intelligence.

With timeliness, Zhou Weihan can make the correct response in time.

Since the troops were on the march, Zhou Weihan had no choice but to come up with a stupid idea. He asked Luo Benzhong to lead the headquarters personnel to stay at the rear to maintain a distance from the troops in front, and then deliver the telegram through the cavalry.

"Hey, it would be great if there were a few high-power walkie-talkies, so that even if the troops move separately, they can maintain normal communications. Why would it be so troublesome as now!" Zhou Weihan said distressedly.

"Walkie-talkie, what is it?" Li Yunlong asked.

"It's just a field phone without a line!" Zhou Weihan replied.

Although Li Yunlong had never seen a walkie-talkie, he immediately noticed its function: "That's a good feeling. If we have this thing, the scouts can report the enemy's position to the artillery at any time, and the frontline troops can call for artillery support at any time. This

Where can I get the good stuff?"

"Where can I get it? If you ask me, who should I ask?" Zhou Weihan said angrily. He just knew that the United States should start producing walkie-talkies at this time.

The words are divided into two parts.

Although the main force of the Japanese and puppet troops advancing westward has not yet reached the vicinity of Qinglongji, the search teams dispersed by the Japanese troops are also not for show.

"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, our cavalry search team reported that gunshots were heard from the direction of Qinglongji, but, but..." The Japanese officer who was reporting was the commander of the cavalry artillery regiment, Ryota Maeda.

Left military rank.

Seeing the hesitation on Maeda Ryota's face, Kojima Yoshizo said dissatisfied: "Maeda-kun, are you going to delay the imperial army's encirclement of the Eighth Route Army? If you have anything to say, please speak up!"

"Hey, after our soldiers heard the gunfire, they quickly approached for reconnaissance and found that the cavalry unit led by Mr. Hei Dao was surrounded by the Eighth Route Army and suffered heavy losses. The soldiers of the search team did not dare to neglect and reported it quickly!"

"Commander of the brigade, this is the original text of the telegram!" Ryota Maeda said, taking out a telegram from the folder.

[By the way, the best app for reading and listening to books is currently Yeguo Reading, install the latest version on yeguoyuedu.]

After Kojima Yoshizo witnessed the content of the telegram with his own eyes, his eyes could not help but darken. Although he commanded more than 10,000 Japanese troops and appeasement troops, the more than 1,000 elites of the Fourth Cavalry Brigade were his direct descendants.

.

I just didn't expect that on the first day of sending troops to encircle and suppress the Eighth Route Army, all the elite cavalrymen would be wiped out in one fell swoop.

"Bagaya Road, Kurojima Morita is a loser. He must be greedy for credit and rush forward. He deserves to die!" Kojima Yoshizo roared.

The two Japanese adjutants and Ryota Maeda kept silent. Except for the Japanese Chief of Staff Yoshihiro Araki who was ordered to stay in Shangqiu, no one dared to step forward to cause trouble at this time.

"Pass my order, the Imperial Army Headquarters and the Appeasement Army will speed up their march and gather all their strength to surround Qinglong!"

"Brigade commander, our unit is still more than thirty miles away from Qinglongji. With the mobility of the Eighth Route Army cavalry, I'm afraid they won't stay where they are!" the adjutant said bravely.

"Then notify the reconnaissance plane at Xinxiang Airport to cooperate with the ground troops to conduct reconnaissance around Qinglongji. I don't believe that the Eighth Route Army can still hide underground?" Kojima Yoshizo was like a gambler who lost his money, insisting on continuing despite the obstruction of his subordinates.

March.

"Hi!" The adjutant had no choice but to respond.

Under Kojima Yoshizo's strict order, even the pace of the appeasement army's march increased significantly. With the cooperation of ground search teams and reconnaissance aircraft, the Japanese army soon discovered that the main force of the Eighth Route Army was suspected to be hiding in the mountains and forests near Qinglongji.

At around two o'clock in the afternoon that day, the Japanese headquarters arrived at the south side of the mountain forest where the 1st Regiment was located, the 19th Division of the Pacification Army arrived at the west side of the mountain forest, and the 38th Division was located between the east side of the mountain forest and Qinglongji.

The headquarters of the Japanese army was located inside.

"Taijun, the Eighth Route Army in the mountains and forests opposite has no intention of retreating. It seems to be waiting for reinforcements. Do you want to launch an attack immediately?" Mi Liangyuan, commander of the 19th Division of the Appeasement Army, asked.

Everyone present, including Kojima Yoshizo, was confused as to why the Eighth Route Army did not retreat voluntarily before the Japanese army surrounded them.

Sun Liangcheng, who was sitting on the right hand side, was thinking in his mind. Although he did not understand the real intention of the Eighth Route Army, Sun Liangcheng knew that Zhou Weihan never did useless things.

Is it possible that Zhou Weihan really wanted to devour the pacification army and the Japanese army in one go? An idea that even he thought was absurd came into Sun Liangcheng's mind.

"Taijun, our department requests an immediate attack on the Eighth Route Army positions!" Mi Liangyuan volunteered again. This guy is Zhang Lanfeng's confidant. Although he is nominally recruited by Sun Liangcheng, he has always been independent.

Mi Liangyuan understood that the Japanese letting Sun Liangcheng take control of the military was only an expedient measure and the result of compromise between all parties.

In terms of relationship, Mi Liangyuan is closer to Kojima Yoshizo. As long as he pleases Kojima Yoshizo, he may not be able to dominate a party like Zhang Lanfeng and have great power in the future.

"Misan, be patient. Now the Eighth Route Army has been surrounded by our army on three sides, and the terrain on the north side of the mountain forest opposite is steep. The Eighth Route Army has no way out!" Kojima Yizang glanced at the attentive Mi Liangyuan with satisfaction, and spoke.

But he still never forgets to boost morale.

"Gentlemen, this time the Appeasement Army is the main force to encircle and suppress the Eighth Route Army. You need to strictly order your subordinates to actively fight against the Eighth Route Army. As long as they can annihilate the main force of the Eighth Route Army in front of them, the Imperial Army will definitely reward them!" Kojima Yoshizo looked around and sat in the tent.

A group of senior military officers and Japanese advisers from the pacification force within said.

"Hey, brigade commander, we will personally supervise the pacification army's operations!" Several Japanese advisers were the first to respond.

Mi Liangyuan followed closely and echoed, but several other officers of the appeasement army had different expressions. After all, not everyone was willing to let their hands serve as cannon fodder on the front line.

Kojima Yoshizo had a panoramic view of everyone's expressions, and he was immediately angry at the uncooperation of some officers of the appeasement army. Normally, Kojima Yoshizo would have never said a word, and those who did not cooperate would have been directly pulled out and killed. But right now, he was

It's the time to employ people.

"Of course, the strength of the Appeasement Army cannot be wasted in encircling and suppressing the Eighth Route Army. In the future, the counties in southwestern Shandong will still need the Appeasement Army to maintain public order!"

"The air support will arrive soon. By then, the mountains and forests on the opposite side will be turned into a sea of ​​flames. It won't be too late for the infantry to advance inward!"
