The Japanese 3rd Division of the Japanese Army looked about 25 o'clock. They were under their jurisdiction, including three infantry corpses, one field artillery corps, one reconnaissance corps, one engineer corps, one transport corps, and one communication corps. In order to save the influence in Luodian, the division commander Lieutenant General Fujita, the chief of staff Colonel Tatsuo, and the 4th Field Heavy Artillery brigade of the 29th Infantry Brigade of the 5th Infantry Brigade of the 5th Infantry Brigade, the 1st Field Heavy Artillery brigade of the 4th Field Heavy Artillery brigade of the 4th Field Heavy Artillery brigade of the 4th Field Heavy Artillery brigade of the 29th Infantry Brigade of the 5th Infantry Brigade of the 5th Infantry Brigade, the Japanese army has begun to prepare for a counterattack in order to recover the impact they were affected in Luodian.

The feat of one division to destroy another regiment is undoubtedly a crazy and crazy thing to all the Japanese army. In fact, if the third division is all dispatched, then Wang Mingyu cannot withstand such consumption even if he is powerful, there are airplanes and heavy artillery on the Japanese army. Such a series of bombings will not be able to stand any army coming.

The division commander Lieutenant General Fujita Jin could not pull out the entire third division to deal with a small regiment-level unit, because in Fujita Jin's view, a brigade's strength was enough to level the entire Luodian. If it were in the past, Lieutenant General Fujita Jin even thought that a corps was enough.

Therefore, the intelligence department of the 318th Regiment was still a little wrong. When the Third Division was assembled, the Intelligence Department noticed it. Seeing the mighty Japanese army advanced into Luodian, the intelligence personnel's telegram at the beginning was that the Third Division's troops were divided into two groups and rushed towards Luodian. However, the Intelligence Department cannot be blamed. After all, it was too hasty at that time and the enemy's situation was urgent.

Wang Mingyu is now extremely entangled. The established strategy is to strengthen the battalion to defend another road where the bridge has been blown up. Then he concentrates his troops to defend the main attack. But now it seems that things are getting worse.

Fortunately, just as Wang Mingyu convened everyone for a meeting, a telegram appeared again in time. Wang Mingyu's frown was slightly relaxed. The Intelligence Department has confirmed that after the Third Division assembled, it sent out a brigade and a heavy artillery wing. It is not clear which brigade and a field heavy artillery wing were it.

Among the three regiments, there is no need to mention two infantry regiments, which adds less than 8ooo people. With one heavy artillery corps, the total number of Japanese troops reached 10,000. Although it has improved a lot compared to 25,000 people, the pressure is still obvious. The field artillery corps are composed of 2,322 people, 3 688 artillery brigades, and each equipped with 12 75mm caliber field or mountain cannons. Such heavy firepower configuration is very powerful.

Time went back to 1 hour ago, at the Third Division's combat meeting.

Lieutenant General Fujita Jin said to the brigade commander below with a smile: I just made a military order on General Matsui Ishione's side, and took down the Luodian within two days. What do you think

Chief of Staff Colonel Tian Yuanlixiong said disdain: Is it a little bit of a big deal to use our division to deal with it?

Major General Tatsuro Yamari snorted coldly, the commander of the 5th Infantry Brigade, said: Commander of the Division, please let me take my brigade to Ping Luodian.

Major General Ueno Kanichiro, the commander of the 29th Infantry Brigade, said unhappily: Katayama, are you making the decision for the division commander? Why is your brigade going to go there?

Fujita Jin knew that his regiment was not aware of the news that the Qingchi regiment of the 11th Division had been completely wiped out, so he had such a thought of underestimating the enemy. Although Fujita Jin also knew that a brigade's troops were more than enough to deal with a regiment, according to the latest news from the Japanese Special High-tech Corporation, the 318th regiment was on the surface, but in fact the troops had reached a scale of at least 8,000, and the weapon configuration was not worse than the imperial army.

Fujita Jin was still wondering why such a unit was guarding the Qingchi regiment at Luodian. It was because of this loss that led to the entire army being wiped out. He thought he had mastered other people's intelligence, but he was finally imprisoned. Fujita Jin is a little sad for the Qingchi regiment. However, Fujita Jin also thought that the Qingchi regiment was really useless. Even if the Chinese army had 8 ooo people, his gang had 4 ooo people, and there were still some fights in this battle. However, the Qingchi regiment almost made the 318th Regiment without any casualties, which really made Fujita Jin feel a little incredible.

Fujita said dullly: Don't argue, now let me talk about the situation. The troops guarding Luodian are a regiment of the Chinese people.

Colonel Tian Yuan Rio said in surprise: Is there only one regiment that the eleventh Division has not won? Did they grow up by eating shit? The others also looked at Fujita Jin in surprise. Fujita Jin looked at everyone's surprise expressions and felt very funny.

Fujita Jin pretended to be sad and said: At 9 o'clock last night, the headquarters lost contact with the Qingchi corps of the 11th Division. It was confirmed that the Qingchi corps were broken in Luodian yesterday, and the right collude of Qingchi was captured alive by the Chinese army.

Katayamari Ichiro looked at Fujita with wide eyes and asked: This is true

Ueno Kanichiro also said with a look of surprise: When can a regiment of the Chinese people be able to destroy an empire's regiment and completely wipe out the corps commander.

Chief of Staff Tian Yuan Rixiong said furiously: Qingchi Regiment is a shame for our great Japanese Empire, and the 11th Division has lost all the face of the empire. This time, let our 3rd Division teach them a good lesson.

Fujita Jin looked at the expressions of the few people and said slowly: This regiment has a total of 8,000 people, and the light and heavy weapons are not worse than our division, or even better than our division.

Tian Yuanlixiong was stunned and murmured: Is this still a regiment? The Central Division of the Chinese Army is just like this.

Fujita Jin nodded and said: The Qingchi United suffered a loss of intelligence and underestimated the enemy too much. It is very likely that they were introduced into the ambush circle and were destroyed by the Chinese army in Luodian. The reason why I tell you now is that I hope you don’t have any idea of ​​underestimating the enemy. We must pay attention to any opponent that deserves attention.

The major generals and colonels all bowed their heads: Hey, the division commander

Lieutenant General Fujita looked up and said: I ordered: The brigade of the 5th Infantry Brigade plus the 2nd Field Army, commanded by Major General Tatsuya Yamari Ichiro, the commander of the 5th Brigade, must arrive at Luodian before noon today and start the attack at 1:00 in the afternoon. I will give you only one and a half days. If the brigade does not take down Luodian in a day and a half, then the military law is ruthless.

The 5th Brigade Brigade Leader Tatsuya Yamari Ichiro stood up excitedly and said: I will definitely live up to the expectations of the division commander, I will do my best.

Lieutenant General Fujita relaxed his tone and said: This time it was still very difficult. After all, they were in a defensive state, and it was a bit hasty for one and a half days, but I think Katayama should have no problem remember not to underestimate the enemy. Okay, now you can prepare and go out in half an hour.

Ichiro Katayama took the order and left with confidence. The Third Division has been participating in the war against China since the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895. It can be said that he has a considerable understanding of China's combat effectiveness. It is good that Ichiro Katayama did not underestimate the enemy, but he still did not get the most correct information and miscalculated the combat effectiveness of Wang Mingyu's troops.

After more than a year of hard and excellent training, it can be said that Wang Mingyu's troops can already be included in one of the world's strongest troops. Wang Mingyu knew it in his heart, but their subordinates were not very clear about how strong their combat power was. Originally, what Wang Mingyu lacked most was morale, but the arrival of the Qingchi Regiment made Wang Mingyu's troops' morale rise unprecedentedly. If we talk about combat effectiveness alone, the Japanese army could no longer pose a substantial threat to Wang Mingyu's troops, but the Japanese army had aircraft, tanks, and heavy artillery. Wang Mingyu's troops had heavy artillery, but at present, there was still a certain gap compared with the size of the Japanese army. Wang Mingyu had no aircraft tanks, so he could afford to buy them, but there was no one who could drive them. After Wang Mingyu prepared for the Nanjing Defense Battle, he formed his own flight brigade.

The 5th Brigade, which had gathered 10,000 people, came out in a mighty way under the leadership of Major General Katayamari Ichiro. In the combat conference room, Major General Katayamari Ichiro had already formulated a tactical plan, but in fact there was nothing new, it was just to divide the troops into two groups. However, this time Katayamari Ichiro's biggest mistake was to set the routes of the two brigades of the heavy artillery corps in the direction of the broken bridge. In other words, these two brigades could not form too strong combat power within a certain period of time, but instead left a chance to breathe for Wang Mingyu's 318th Regiment.

However, although Ichiro Katayamari does not underestimate the enemy, it does not mean that the Japanese army does not underestimate the enemy. The Japanese army's long-term advantage over China has created their underestimation of the enemy, and it is impossible to change it in a short time. Now there are many problems in front of Major General Katayamari Ichiro Katayamari Ichiro, the most important of which is time. If it is an ordinary division or even a division of the Central Army, Ichiro Katayamari Ichiro must be conquered in one day, but facing this 318th Regiment with only one regiment on the surface, and in fact, there is a division's strength. Ichiro Katayamari Ichiro vaguely feels that it is not so easy to meet, and there may be a fierce battle waiting for him. The lessons of the Qingchi United are not unreasonable. To reach the level of the general, how can I have no sense of crisis at all? How can a blind and arrogant person reach the position of the general?

In fact, Ichiro Katayama's arrangement was not wrong, but because the time was too tight, he didn't have time to send a scout to reconnaissance the road conditions, so he arranged for the troops to go out. If he checked the road conditions in advance, he might have pulled the entire heavy artillery corps to another road. But now from the map, there is a bridge that is obviously shorter on this side. In this case, how can it be farther away?

The news of the 5th Brigade's dispatch of troops was soon reported to the senior management. When Chairman Jiang received the telegram, he was also heartbroken. If he asked the 318th Regiment to evacuate, he would undoubtedly send him to death and then to the place. Such a stupid order, Chairman Jiang would not give up. Now Chairman Jiang is thinking about how to increase the Luodian. The strategic location of Luodian is really important. As he thought about it, Chairman Jiang asked his servants to come over and drafted a telegram to the third war zone.
