Isotani Ryosuke was very irritable. To be precise, he was already on the verge of mania, but he was still able to restrain himself. He had never fought such a frustrated battle for so many years in the army.

He was actually surrounded by a group of Chinese J teams like "beggars", which was once captured by him and his troops.

The problem is that the army outside the city was actually the army guarding the city!

Being surrounded by an opponent that Zeng Jin defeated was a shame for Isotani Ryosuke, a failure that was difficult to explain clearly.

This will be a shadow in his heart.

"Telecommander, commander's telegram."

"What do you mean?" Isotani Ryosuke was so angry that he couldn't spill it out. When Setani was defeated in Taierzhuang, his waist could not be hard, as if he was shorter than a human.

"Stay at Teng County and wait for rescue!" Dibujiagui said bitterly. If you keep this situation in the present situation, it would be a chronic suicide. If the Fifth Brigade in Yanzhou could come, it would have come long ago.

"The Commander took out a gang from the 109th Division to support General Morita. It is estimated that he will be able to conquer Yanzhou in three days, and then..."

"When he captures Yanzhou, we will lose our bones. The Chinese have now freed up their hands. Are we going to face tens of thousands, but hundreds of thousands of Chinese people!" Akisuke Isotani said angrily.

"Teacher Commander, the Chinese people dug an authentic tunnel and escaped from the ground. Can't we?" Dibujiagui suggested.

"Authentic, why didn't I expect that this is also a way out!" Isotani Ryosuke suddenly woke up. Even if he couldn't break through, he could leave a way out for himself.

"This matter is feasible, but it needs to be done secretly, you can arrange it yourself."

"Teacher Commander, where are we digging?"

"It's not possible to go to the west, there is Weishan Lake in the west. We don't have a boat, so we can't escape..."

"The division commander, didn't the Chinese J Sichuan Army do the opposite? We thought they would not break through the east gate. They broke through the east gate. Why not learn from them? Besides, the subordinates have quietly surveyed it. There are tunnels in the west city, and the damage is not serious. If they are dug up again, the time will be greatly shortened."

"Oh, you're so mean." Isotani Ryosuke nodded, "How long will it take?"

"It's hard to say that this position is. If it goes well, it can be dug in one or two days. If it doesn't go well, it's hard to say." It's not easy. Who can explain this kind of thing clearly?

"I'll give you five hundred people, go do this immediately. Be sure to dig through the tunnel for me within one day!" Isotani Ryosuke said with horror.

"Do your best!"

"Xicheng, hehe..." A strange smile appeared on the corner of Aoya's mouth.

In a small village about twenty kilometers away from Caozhou City, the people were already empty. A Japanese army of hundreds of people occupied it, and the small village was surrounded by water.

The division command center of Kenji Doihara is located here.

"Teacher Commander, top secret information from Wuhan!"

"What?"

"China has incorporated western Shandong into their first war zone and sent a general to take charge of eastern Henan. There is no specific information about this general yet."

"Oh?" Kenji Doihara frowned slightly. This was not good news.

"Didn't the Cobra team have any information on this?"

"The activities of the Cobra Group are severely restricted, and they are targeted by the 'witch'. Once they take action, they are likely to be completely exposed." The intelligence officer reported.

"Have I called back the telegram to Tokyo Base Camp?"

"The base camp agreed to transfer Ikeda Jun to General's subordinates, but not now." The intelligence consultant said slightly slowed down.

"Why?"

"I don't know, that's what the telegram says."

"Okay, you go down!" Kenji Doihara waved his hand slightly, with no expression on his face.

"Teacher Commander, the Chinese responded quickly, and the situation seemed to be unfavorable to us?" Chief of Staff Tadao Yoshino said with some concern.

"It's okay, as long as Colonel Sakaniichiro can complete the task I assigned, we can completely turn the situation around, and perhaps there may be unexpected gains!" Kenji Doihara said confidently.

"If it can succeed, it's natural."

"Team Commander, the secret message from the 'Iron' Group!" The confidential staff member pushed open the door and handed a message to Kenji Doihara with a red encrypted seal.

"You go down first!" Kenji Doihara scanned the content of the telegram and waved his hand.

"Secretary Commander, what's the matter?"

"Isotani is in trouble, and the Chinese are targeting him." Kenji Doihara said slowly, "Commander Tokuhiko Toruhiko ordered him to stay in Fuji Prefecture. Fuji Prefecture's fortifications cannot stop the Chinese from lasting for a long time."

"If the 10th Division is wiped out, then the commander will be responsible."

"The 10th Division has become a shame in the eyes of the top leaders of the empire. Even if Isotani Kwan can go back alive, it will probably not end well." Kenji Doihara sighed.

"General Isogaya has a good relationship with the division commander. Do you want to save him?"

"Well, I do have this idea. He still has three or four thousand people in his hands. If it is eaten by the Chinese, the 10th Division will have to return to the local area to rebuild. If it is rebuilt, it will take at least one or two years to restore its current combat power. If there are thousands of people to provide the foundation, the recovery speed may be faster." Kenji Doihara said.

"But how can we save him? It's beyond the reach!"

"If he had the courage to disobey His Highness the Prince's order to defend Teng Prefecture to the death, there would be a chance." A cunning and cruel light flashed in Kenji Doihara's eyes.

"What do you mean is to let Colonel Sakanichi respond to General Isotani break out from Fuji Prefecture?" Sano Tadaoyi was shocked and inexplicably.

"What's wrong?" Kenji Doihara said disapprovingly. If I let Rensuke Isotani ignore it, this remnant soldier of thousands of people would never be swallowed up by more than 100,000 gj that came back.

If he can pull a hand now, he will not only get the support of thousands of troops, but the combat effectiveness of Sakashi Ichiro's detachment will increase exponentially, and the next move will be even more certain.

This is a plan to kill two birds with one stone.

"Teacher Commander, can you hide this from the Chinese?"

"Some things can't be hidden in the end, but when they found out, it was too late. They never dreamed that my goal was not to go south and cut off the Longhai Line."

"The division commander's trick is so clever!" Tadao Yoshi Sano gave a thumbs up and exclaimed.

"Call back and give it to the 'Iron' Group and say that everything will be done according to the agreed plan." Kenji Doihara exchanged for an adjutant and gave an order.

"Report to the division commander, our occupied positions are lost!"

"What's going on?"

"Under our attack, they could not resist and retreated for two kilometers. We then covered and killed them. We wanted to take their position in one go, but they blocked it. Then, they suddenly launched a counterattack. Our army was not prepared and was chased by them for two kilometers in one breath and regained the position!" The Grand Secretary Staff reported.

"Baga, your weapons and equipment are much more advanced than the Chinese, as well as artillery and tank support, how could they be defeated? Who commanded this battle?"

“…”

In Caozhou City, the Third Army Command.

"Commander-in-Chief, we have regained the position!" The staff members were very excited. At first, they couldn't figure out why the Commander-in-Chief gave such an inexplicable order, but now they understand.

Sun Yinting smiled slightly, but was very shocked. Leng Guoguang was really powerful. Although he was not there, he knew the situation of the Japanese army. A small "tactic" made him win a great victory, and he stumbled back the situation!

"After ordering, after cleaning the battlefield, quietly retreating five kilometers and retreating to the city of Caozhou!"

"Commander-in-Chief, it's been difficult to take back the position, why should I withdraw it again?"

"The Japanese army's heavy artillery is closer, and it can be stopped by the fortifications on the positions. We cannot let our soldiers die!" Sun Yinting explained, "Besides, our goal is to rush to assist the Japanese army in advancing, not to fight against the Japanese army."

"But……"

"Don't do it, but I'll send my orders to retreat quickly. If I don't retreat, it's too late!" Sun Yinting ordered sternly.

"yes!"

When the Japanese artillery position advanced two kilometers forward, the shells smashed into the blocking GJ position like dumplings. Within ten minutes, thousands of shells landed on the position with a depth of less than 500 meters, which was almost the same as plowing the ground.

When the retreating officers and soldiers returned to see the tragic scene, their anger and incomprehension suddenly disappeared. If they did not obey the order, they would probably be gone at this moment.

Some people also disobeyed the orders and thought that Shangfeng was a coward, so they gave up the position they took back, which was completely a joke. Some even contradicted the orders conveying the orders and insisted on staying on the position.

Those who survived these stubborn people had a battalion commander who committed suicide by swallowing a gun. Because of him, all of his battalions were killed in battle, and no one left died under Japanese artillery bombardment.

Even if he didn't commit suicide by swallowing the gun, he would still be a death sentence at that time.

No one wants to see such a thing happening, but after this incident, no one questioned the order to go up the peak. If you should retreat, you should charge. The combat effectiveness and cohesion of the troops have been significantly improved, which can be regarded as a loss of gain.

"Caozhou City can hold on for one to two days at most, and the casualties are too great. In this day, five thousand people will be gone. If such a large casualties continue, the Third Army will be destroyed." Xie Chengrui looked at the battle report and sighed.

"Our casualties are not small. The 22nd Division suffered five or six hundred casualties this day, and we also had more than two hundred casualties."

"That was the old Japanese in Dohihara who took away all the heavy artillery. Although Sakai's firepower is stronger than us, he is not as familiar with the environment after all."

"Commander-General Sun's side is under great pressure. If I hadn't had my clones, I really wanted to go over and take a look."

"You should stop worrying about this. Chief Xue has arrived in Kaifeng and the telegram has been sent. I want to listen to your views and suggestions on the battle situation. How do you plan to go back to someone else?" Xie Chengrui said angrily.

"What can I think?" Leng Feng rolled his eyes, "General Xue is more experienced than me, and he is more in charge than me, and has rich combat experience. It is not the first time he fought with the Japanese army. I guess he has been confident. I just want to fight my battle well."

"Are you jealous of someone snatching your official position?"

"It's not that the sign on my shoulders is not strong enough. It's not my turn to serve as the commander of the First Corps. Besides, if people don't accept me, it's impossible for Chiang Kai-shek to get me that high." Leng Feng smiled.

"Then what you think, you really don't care?"

"Who said I don't care. I still have to do my best to this Luxi one acre of three-point land. As for the overall situation, it is Chief Xue's business." Leng Feng said, "He just came, and I might have to force him, otherwise I would not have had any good results."

"Well, it makes sense. If the gun strikes the first bird and Chief Xue wants to establish his authority, you are the most suitable candidate." Xie Chengrui smiled.

"Tihihara, Doihihara, what do you want to play?" Leng Feng closed his eyes and murmured to himself.

"Report!"

Leng Feng suddenly opened his eyes and a light flashed: "Come in!"

"The Japanese army captured Chengwu and was advancing rapidly towards Shanxian!"

"Is it because I guessed wrong?" Leng Feng frowned slightly and said suspiciously.

"Can it be that the earth and fat are deploying the suspicion array, deliberately making us think that he went to Dangshan?" Xie Chengrui also said "huh" and analyzed.

"Have you figured out the number of Japanese troops?"

"It is the 59th Regiment of the 14th Division of the Japanese Army, and the captain is Sakaniichiro."

"Appointing Brigade Commander Sun of the 36th Brigade, he must find out the specific situation of the Japanese army, personnel, weapons, and whether to divide the troops," Leng Feng ordered calmly.
