Chapter 504 How to do it?
It was seven in Xiaogan at 7 in the morning.
When Nihiko Higashinomiya woke up early in the morning, he felt restless.
Last night, the national army's counterattack was very sudden, and Fujita Jin's estimate was wrong, so at the beginning, the Third Division did not report the news of the attacks by Chinese troops.
Later, Ding Yan's tank battalion rushed forward and entered the center of the Third Division's garrison in a short time. When Fujita Jin realized that something was wrong and was about to report the news of his defeat to the headquarters, it was too late.
So until now, Nianyan from Dongjiugu still didn't know that the Third Division had been completely annihilated by the National Army
Dongjiugu only knew that the Third Division was counterattacked by the Chinese army, and this was reported by the Tenth Division.
But now, how did the battle between the Third Division and the Chinese army have been going well? Higashijiugu Nihiko didn't know, because the reconnaissance plane sent by the Aviation Corps to Wuhan had just taken off, and it would take time to fly over Wuhan.
Higashiramiya Naihiko also asked Machijiri Ichiki to send a telegram to the Third Division several times to ask about the specific situation of the battle, but the Third Division has not responded, which has further aggravated Higashiramiya Naihiko's doubts.
"Your Highness" Machijiri Oki walked in and said with a serious expression, "I just sent a telegram to the Third Division, but still didn't reply."
"Baga" Higakuramiya Nianhiko said angrily, "What are you doing with this idiot Fujita?
Machijiri Machiji shook his head and said, "But, your highness doesn't have to worry too much. No matter what, the Third Division is one of the seventeen permanent divisions. Although there have been some reductions in the battle in the past half month, there are still nearly 20,000 people, and the 3rd Regiment of Field Artillery, so the Chinese Army can definitely fight it."
After a pause, Machijiri Yoshiki continued: "It is impossible to eat the Third Division overnight."
"What you said is on the ground." Higashijiugu Nihiko nodded and said, "No matter what, the Chinese army cannot eat a permanent division overnight, even if it is just a broken division."
However, before he finished speaking, the commander of the Air Corps, He Zhongzhi, suddenly rushed in.
"Your Highness, it's not good." He Zhongzhi paused his head and said tragically, "The aviation scout just reported that the military camp of the Third Division in the north of Hanyang City has been broken by the Chinese army."
"Nani" Machijiri Ryoki said in disbelief, "The military camp of the Third Division was actually broken."
After a pause, Machijiri Yoshiki continued: "How could the Third Division have built a simple fortress in the north of Hanyang City? How could the Chinese army break through the fortress overnight?"
Higashijiugu Nihiko's face also changed drastically, and he asked anxiously: "The military camp has been broken, what about the Third Division?"
"The aviation scouts have been searched, but they cannot be found." He Zhongzhi, "So, the judgement of the humble rank, the Third Division is likely to have been completely wiped out by the Chinese army."
"Nani" Machijiri Yoshiki couldn't believe his ears, "total annihilation"
Higashijiujiu Nianyan also took a breath of air and said sternly: "Total annihilation"
"Hayi" He Zhongzhi paused his head suddenly and said in a deep voice, "The Third Division has nearly 20,000 people. If it is just defeated, the aviation scouts will find them no matter what. But now, the three reconnaissance aircraft sent by Beizhi have searched for a full half hour, but they have not found even one imperial soldier from the Third Division. There is only one explanation."
Machijiri Ichiki then said: "This explanation is that the Chinese army not only wiped out the Third Division, but even cleaned up the battlefield, and the bodies of the dead imperial soldiers had been removed from their weapons and equipment, and they had been hidden."
"Baga" Higashijiujiu Nianyan's face turned completely dark when he heard this, because He Zhongzhi's analysis made sense, and this is very likely the truth of the matter.
"Broadcasting" Machijiri Haruki suddenly said, "Your Highness, if the Chinese army really wiped out the Third Division, they won such a big victory, they would definitely be widely publicized in the broadcast."
"Oh yes" Nianyan from Higaojiuying said, "Listen to the radio"
At the same time, in the north of Hankou City, the 10th Division was stationed.
Yoshio Shinozuka and Torikatsu take the air balloon again and rise to a height of more than 100 meters.
The reason why Yoshio Shinozuka was so anxious to ride the air balloon to reach a height of hundreds of meters was because he was concerned about the safety of the Third Division.
From the observation on Fenghe Mountain, I can't see the territorial base of the Third Division on the west bank of the Han River, but from the 100-meter-high air balloon, you can fully see the camp of the Third Division on the other side.
However, when you see clearly the situation on the other side of the Han River, Yoshio Shinozuka and Higashi are speechless for a long time.
Because the camp of the Third Division on the other side of the Han River was empty at this moment. The originally dense military tents and the 105-caliber field cannons listed behind the camp were gone at this moment.
There was only a messy battlefield left in the place. The dark smoke showed that there had been a fierce battle here yesterday.
After a while, the dike Bujiao said sadly: "Second Commander, it seems that you have really missed it. The Third Division is probably really broken."
Yoshio Shinozuka sighed and shook his head and said, "I really hope I guessed it was wrong."
"But now it seems that you are right," said Dibujiagui, shook his head, "Otherwise, nearly 20,000 people in a division would never disappear suddenly."
Yoshio Shinozuka was silent when he heard this, and had no way to refute it.
Dibujiagui took a breath and continued, "The division commander, it is really hard to believe how the Chinese army did it. It is enough to be surprising enough that the Chinese army was able to break through the camp that the Third Division built after nearly half a month. What is even more surprising is that they were able to wipe out the Third Division overnight."
"Yes, how did the Chinese army do it?" Shinozuka Yoshio sighed, "If you don't understand this, it will be really hard to sleep or eat, because the Chinese army can wipe out the Third Division overnight, which means that they are completely likely to wipe out the Tenth Division overnight."
"Sodesnai" said Guishen, "This must be guarded against."
Yoshio Shinozuka continued to ask, "Then, I don't think the Chinese army did it?"
The dike Bugu thought for a long time, but finally shook his head and said, "I really can't think of it."
After pausing, Dibugu said again: "Chief of the Division, where are you?"
