When I heard the news that Lieutenant General Hirohiko Asakamiya might have lost his head in the city, Nakajima Atsugo felt his scalp numb.☆→,

Whether it is killed or captured is a pretty bad thing.

If you are killed, you have to deal with it. Find an opportunity to snatch the body back, or spend some money to get the body back and return to the country for burial. This is not a big deal. As for the face of the royal family and the empire, he doesn't have to consider it, anyway, he is already ashamed.

If you are captured, it will be a big trouble. Maybe they will all be held accountable. If they lose their official position, they will be lighter. If they are not careful, they will go to military court.

what to do?

To recapture Nanjing City, the 16th Division's current military strength is not enough, not to mention that they have thrown most of their heavy weapons in Nanjing City.

Wouldn’t the Chinese team who gets these heavy weapons and equipment be more powerful?

This is not an ordinary army. It was the "Yasha" who fought with them in Nanjing for more than a month but never caught others and suffered repeated losses.

This is a unit of unpredictable ghosts and gods. When I think about it, a chill in my heart couldn't help but feel.

The reinforcements have arrived in Jurong, so close that they will arrive tomorrow morning as soon as possible. What does the Third Division want to do? Why not just arrive at Tangshan?

The telegram explained that the vanguard with only one brigade set off when he received the order. When he arrived at Jurong, he was already exhausted and could not walk and needed a rest.

There is no way, I can only wait.

There were also many senior Japanese officers and diplomats who were trapped in Nanjing. The time chosen by "Yasha" was so good that the Japanese army was not prepared at all. They were hit in an instant.

Including Major General Harada, Consul of the Japanese Consulate in Nanjing, Senior Advisor of the New Government, and Chief of the SAR Office, Hanmoto Saya, etc., Japanese military and political leaders.

These people are very likely to be captured now.

what to do?

The command center of the 16th Division was filled with sorrow. Nakajima Aogo was the most miserable. This time his military career was probably about to end.

"The division commander, the dispatching army commander called, and the new dispatching army commander General Toshiro Hata ordered our headquarters to establish a defensive position on the spot and wait for reinforcements to arrive."

"When will the reinforcements arrive?" Chang Yong asked with concern. He had just escaped and was not sure about the situation.

"The reinforcements will arrive at the latest tomorrow morning. Their forward has arrived in Jurong."

"Why can't you come?"

"The road from Jurong to Tangshan is not easy to walk. In addition, it is dark and they are struggling along the way. They just rest in Jurong for a night, and then come to meet us early tomorrow morning."

"That's right?" Changyong stopped talking. He felt that even though he arrived at the 16th Division of Tangshan, he still felt unsafe.

In Nanjing, he also had several confrontations with "Yasha". He knew that "Leng Feng" was a person who did not play according to common sense. If it was really he who led the actions last night.

Then he will most likely do it again.

"His Excellency Nakajima Division Commander, it is the most dangerous tonight. I hope the 16th Division can strengthen its vigilance..." Chang Yong suggested anxiously.

"Jun Changyong, this is Tangshan. My 19th Brigade Regiment Headquarters, even if it is not solid, the Chinese people would probably not be able to attack them." said Major General Caochang.

"The Chinese have no time to take care of us now. They went out of the city to fight us today. The purpose is to force us back so that they can free up time to clear the security in the city. They are probably still busy putting out fires everywhere!"

"This afternoon, our Army Air Force bombers carried incendiary bombs to bomb Nanjing International Security Zone..."

"Your Excellency the division commander, Yasha's cold front must not be judged by common sense, we must be careful." Nagayong was anxious and couldn't help reminding Nakajima Atsugo again.

"Zhangyong, I will consider your suggestions. Nakazawa, please arrange for Changyong to go down to treat the wound and rest." Nakajima Imao said stubbornly, and he agreed with the judgment of Major General Grassland and others.

At this time, the "Yasha" was busy extinguishing the city of Nanjing and preparing to resist the counterattack of the Japanese Imperial Army. How could he have the strength to launch an attack?

They don’t have many troops. Nakajima Imago, who has experienced the battle personally, is naturally clear, but their command and coordination ability is very strong, and they caught them off guard and won in chaos.

If we set up a formation to fight, Nakajima completely believes that these temporarily pieced together mobs are by no means the opponent of the elite Imperial Japanese Army.

"Your Excellency, please be careful..."

Nakajima did not take Changyong's suggestion seriously. The Central ** team in Nanjing was conservatively estimated to be only 10,000 or 20,000 people. Although this or 20,000 people were better than the Xindian who had just put down his hoe, in terms of individual soldiers, they were much worse than the samurai of the Great Japanese Empire.

If they hadn't used tricks to take away the heavy artillery, the 16th Division would not have been defeated so quickly in the city.

Heavy artillery is a powerful weapon to defend the city, and they will never move easily. In the field outside the city, the Chinese are not the opponent of the Japanese Imperial Army at all, so he still has this confidence.

Sometimes when you are too confident, you become conceited, just like Ashigo Nakashima.

Changyong was right. He was indeed a little scared by the "Yasha", but his worries were not unreasonable.

They forgot that the Chinese teams in Nanjing were not all temporarily put together mobs, but also had elite troops. For example, Xie Jiyuan's detachment, who had just gained freedom, this team caused the Japanese army to lose heavily in Shanghai. Now they have gained freedom, and their combat effectiveness is stronger than when they were guarding the four lines.

If Nakajima Imago knew that the person who was raiding tonight was Xie Jiyuan, he would not dare to be so hasty.

The battle begins before dawn.

Xie Jiyuan personally led a special detachment from Fang Chongshan to the Japanese camp. In this place, the Japanese army had ambushed the Guangdong army's breakthrough troops not long ago, but now it was broken into by the Chinese team for the second time.

The chariot squadron led by Li Ye and the three main battalions that supplemented Xie Jiyuan's detachment directly rushed into the Japanese outpost along the highway, tearing a hole open, and rushing in.

The Japanese drama who was still sleeping was caught off guard. He suffered heavy casualties and did not have enough anti-tank weapons. He could only watch Li Ye's tank squadron clashing back and forth on his position, killing blood flowed into a river.

Fang Chongshan was less than one kilometer away from the 16th Division of the Japanese Army, with almost no depth. This sudden attack shocked Nakajima Ashigo.

He began to regret not listening to Changyong's advice and strengthening his vigilance on the position, but now he regrets it too late.

"kill!"

Xie Jiyuan had already been full of anger. How could he let go of such an opportunity to beat the Japanese army? He led the team to charge himself, and the Japanese army he killed was overwhelmed.

Seeing that the situation was wrong, Nakajima Atsugo hurriedly ordered a retreat, but some of the Japanese troops in Tangshan were scattered soldiers who escaped from Nanjing City, without any organization. As a result, as soon as they fought, they ran away and the whole situation became chaotic.

Naturally, this chaos was beyond control. Nakajima Atsugo had to order a retreat along the Beijing-Hangzhou Highway!

The unorganized retreat turned into a defeat. It was a great defeat and his morale was low. The morale of the army was dispersed. The four or five thousand Japanese troops could not withstand the attack and scattered in a hurry.

Xie Jiyuan immediately ordered to take advantage of the situation to cover up the killing. More than 2,000 people chased the Japanese army twice as strong as his troops and killed them. The Japanese army lost countless helmets and armor, lost weapons, ammunition, and various supplies...

Xie Jiyuan was also very cautious. He chased after seven or eight miles away and ordered to withdraw his troops. He stopped when he saw the opportunity. The Japanese reinforcements vanguard had arrived in Jurong, so the so-called "defeated enemy" should not be pursued.

Leng Feng was waiting for Xie Jiyuan's telegram. From the start of the attack to the end of the attack, the total result was achieved in less than 45 minutes, killing and injuring thousands of Japanese soldiers, and capturing seven or eight hundred, most of them were wounded by the Japanese army.

"Order Xie Jiyuan, we will not want the Japanese wounded, and we will not want the prisoners. Let him clean the battlefield and come back immediately." Leng Feng ordered.

"yes!"

"Roun, what does Deputy Commander Leng mean? Don't take prisoners?"

"Execute the orders of Deputy Commander Leng, all the wounded and prisoners are left behind. All the weapons, equipment and supplies are loaded into the vehicle and cleaned me quickly. Don't leave a screw or a bullet to the Japanese." Xie Jiyuan received the order and ordered the commander to send a message.

Xie Jiyuan certainly understood Leng Feng's meaning. The wounded and captives of the Japanese army were escorted back. Not only did the team not walk fast, but they also consumed their own resources.

Even if they don’t treat their injuries, they can’t help but eat them, right?

The wounded and captives were still handed over to the Japanese. They would never ignore their own people. They consumed their manpower and material resources. However, they promised to evacuate in the shortest time. Why bother to ask for trouble?

Seeing that there were no pursuers behind him, Nakajima Ashigo said that he ordered to stop advancing and gather the remaining soldiers.

With a slight count, a mouthful of old blood was spurted out. In addition to the wounded soldiers, nearly 4,000 Japanese soldiers were able to fight, and now only a thousand people were left.

The 16th Division is one of the 17 standing divisions in Japan, with nearly 30,000 staff members. Except for the remaining troops in China, everyone else was sent to China.

After two major battles in Songhu and Nanjing, the 16th Division had dropped sharply to 16,000 troops. In the two major battles, the 16th Division lost 8,000 troops. This was the loss of continuous combat for more than three months. However, when it was occupied Nanjing, it was a piecemeal and fragmented one after another in just over a month.

Up to now, there are less than a thousand soldiers under his command, and there are also a group of defeated soldiers who have lost their fighting spirit. Nakajima Atsugo was immediately stimulated to vomit blood.

"How could this happen? How could this happen..."

Nakajima Aogo vomited blood while looking up at the sky to question it, and finally fell down.

"Second Commander! Nakajima Jun!..."

"Nakajima is gone!"

The generals of the 16th Division surrounded him one after another. Nakajima Atsugo's body was lying on a stretcher. The expression of questioning the sky before his death was frozen on his face.

Nakajima Atsugo was so angry that he died of a grievance and was very unwilling to accept it.

This executioner who likes to kill people and burn corpses has finally no chance to harm the Chinese people anymore.

When the news reached the Central China Expeditionary Army Headquarters, the Japanese generals were shocked, and a Japanese lieutenant general was so angry that he was so angry that he died of anger.

This is incredible and shocking the whole world!

Yasha!

Cold front!

The Great Japanese Empire will never stop you!

The new commander of the dispatching army, General Shinji Hata, broke his cup and let out an extremely angry roar!

Undoubtedly, 'Yasha' has become famous again.

On February 1, 27, the 27th year of the Republic of China, the second day of the first lunar month of the Wuyin year of the lunar calendar, the commander of the Central China dispatched troops, Toshiro Hata and Chief of Staff, Kawabian Masaru, and many other Japanese officers, flew to Jurong Airport in a military plane.

Subsequently, General Hata Shunji held an emergency military meeting at the 3rd Division Division of Jurong County to study how to deploy the strategy of recapturing Nanjing.

Leng Feng also received information from the Military Control Commission Shanghai Station and ZG through other channels, and Shunrok Hata came.

"Have you caught it?" After receiving Xie Jiyuan's telegram, Leng Feng took a nap for two hours. At around nine o'clock, he woke up on time, washed his face with cold water, and then devoted himself to the intense work.

"No, we searched through the Confucius Temple area, but we couldn't find it."

"Go down and rest. You are facing a cunning Japanese intelligence agent. It is not easy to catch him." Leng Feng waved his hand. Kenji Doihara is a Chinese expert, speaks Chinese, and can be smooth and understands the Chinese people's sentiment. If he hides in the crowd, it will be difficult to find it.
