Chapter 1237 Pride and underestimate the enemy

Zhong Yi smiled and said, "Who said that if the tactical intention is exposed, you can't ambush?"

"Ga?" He Wenxi was speechless when he heard this. He was speechless. If his tactical intentions were exposed, he could still ambush?

Zhong Yi said again: "Director He, let me talk first, how many roads can I go from Wuyi County to Songyang County?"

"Three roads." He Wenxi had already understood this and immediately said without thinking, "One is to go through Jinhua, Longyou and then return to Songyang. This road is the longest, with an actual distance of at least 500 miles, and it is still under the control of our army, so the possibility of the Japanese taking this road can basically be ruled out."

After pausing, He Wenxi said again: "The second is to return to Yongkang first, and then go west through Lishui to Songyang County. This road is about 300 miles, and it is basically under the control of the Japanese. Therefore, the Japanese in Wuyi direction have the highest possibility of taking this road to reinforce the Japanese."

After another pause, He Wenxi said: "In addition to these two roads, there is also a small road. If you cross Huangtangling and Niutou Mountain, you can directly reach Songyang County. The nearest road is less than two hundred miles!"

Zhong Yi said again: "Director He, what path will the Japanese take in the end?"

"Is it necessary to guess?" He Wenxi said, "It must be going to Lishui."

"Is that right?" Zhong Yi smiled and said, "But I don't think Usa Miro will choose any way!"

"I don't choose any path of Usa Mirone?" He Wenxi said in confusion, "How is this possible? Could it be that the Japanese can still fly from the sky?"

Zhong Yi smiled and said, "I won't talk about this anymore. Let's talk about how to fight this battle in Songyang County first."

"That's true." He Wenxi said deeply, "Don't concentrate the main force of the 41st Army in the end, but even a mere Miura brigade can't be defeated, that's a joke."

Zhong Yi nodded and said, "The Miura Brigade has two infantry regiments and an artillery brigade. It has a strong combat effectiveness. If it is a head-on confrontation, if the main force of the 41st Army does not pay more than half of the casualties, it will probably be difficult to chew this hard bone. Therefore, we still have to take advantage of the Japanese's arrogance and underestimation of the enemy."

"Also use the Japanese's arrogance and underestimation of the enemy?" He Wenxi said, "I'm afraid it's unlikely to join the seat, right? Usa Mirō, the Japanese devil, has probably judged our intention to fight, so he can't help but remind Yamazaki Utsuki. If Yamazaki Utsuki knew that the 41st Army was in Songyang, would he dare to underestimate the enemy?"

"Nothing is impossible." Zhong Yi said, "It's up to man."

...

At the same time, more than ten miles east of Songyang County, there is a small hill called Turtle Gang.

The reason why this mountain is called Turtle Hill is not because the whole mountain looks like a turtle, but because there is a rock on the top of the mountain that looks very similar to a turtle, so it is named Turtle Hill.

At this moment, Yamazaki Yuki, the brigade of the 119th Infantry Brigade of the 116th Division of the Japanese Army, was standing on the turtle rock with a telescope, looking at the city of Songyang.

Here it is necessary to briefly introduce the 119th Infantry Brigade.

At the beginning of the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War, the Japanese army had only seventeen permanent divisions. Such a small amount of troops was obviously not enough to conquer the entire China. So, based on the left-behind units of the 16 permanent divisions except the Guard Division, they recruited reserve soldiers from each division and urgently organized 16 special divisions.

The number of these sixteen special divisions is to add a one in front of the original division.

The special division composed of the left-behind units of the First Division is the 101 Division, and the special division composed of the left-behind units of the Second Division is the 102 Division, and so on.

Therefore, the 116th Division, which committed numerous beastly activities in the Nanjing Defense War, is actually the same unit. Except for the different numbers, its soldiers all come from Kyoto. In a sense, the combat effectiveness of the 116th Division is even strong.

And Yamazaki Uyoshi's 119th Brigade is the same as the 19th Brigade of the 16th Division!

The 109th Infantry Regiment and the 120th Infantry Regiment under the 119th Infantry Brigade, the soldiers came from Kyoto Prefecture and Mie Prefecture respectively, and their combat effectiveness was still very strong.

For this reason, Yamazaki Utsuki didn't care about the resistance of the vanguard troops in Songyang County. If it weren't for the repeated requests from Shimahara, the captain of the 120th Infantry Regiment, Yamazaki Utsuki would not even intend to report this matter to the 13th Army Commander in Shanghai.

In a word, the 116th Division has been very smooth since its landing in Wenzhou!

Moreover, from Wenzhou to Lishui, Tadaji Miura's 130th Infantry Brigade was fighting for the vanguard, so Yamazaki Yukihito held his breath in his heart and must first capture Quzhou City before Tadaji Miura hit Jinhua. This is a competition between the two old Japanese, and it is not worth telling outsiders.

But there are also people who understand the senior Japanese officers.

Shimahara Yoshi, the captain of the 120th Infantry Regiment, is a sensible person.

When the forward of the Yamazaki Brigade was subjected to fierce resistance in Songyang Prefecture, Shimahara Yoshi realized that something was wrong and realized that they might have fallen into the Chinese plan, so he strongly asked Yamazaki Utsushi to report the matter to the headquarters. Not only that, he also asked Yamazaki Utsushi to shrink its troops as soon as possible to protect himself.

"Brigate Commander!" Shimahara Kishi advised earnestly, "It's already very obvious. The main force of the 41st Chinese Army, which had never appeared in the Xinsheng battlefield, and Zhong Yi's main force of the coastal defense corps, must have come to western Zhejiang, and it is very likely that our brigade will be selected as the target of attack."

Yamazaki Yuki smiled slightly and said, "So what?"

"So we should shrink our troops as soon as possible, repair defensive fortifications, and try to defend." Shimahara Yoshi said, "Because the main force of the division is far away in Wuyi Prefecture at this time, it is at least 200 miles away from our brigade. In addition, the road is prone to damage, and there must be a Chinese army blocking the way through, so the speed of reinforcements will definitely not be fast."

"Reinforcement? No reinforcement is needed!" Yamazaki Yuki said disdainfully, "The Chinese army is made of sand. The Imperial Army only needs one charge to defeat them. So what if Zhong Yi gathers a group army and a coastal defense corps? It is impossible to stop our brigade from progress!"

"Brig Commander!" Shimahara Yoshi said, "We should be more careful."
