Chapter 144 Airdrop Supply and Renewal: The 41st Infantry Regiment to the 3rd Brigade!
Taro Miyamoto's eyes were solemn, and a series of unfavorable situations surged over.
Prince Fushimiguchi was killed on the second floor of the field airport tower outside the east gate of Jinghai County. This matter is not actually his responsibility.
But if Jinghai County is lost, then he will still command more than 5,000 troops, and will be blocked in a narrow area between Yishitian and Huting stronghold, and will be extremely moved.
"How is the situation of the Second Infantry Brigade of the Chongteng Regiment that had previously gone south to counterattack?"
Taro Miyamoto did not immediately issue a reversal order, and then thought about it and asked Chief of Staff Kenjiro Ikeda.
"The mountain pass on the Tiannan side of the first line was raided and captured the Xiushui River Bridge. The enemy troops were divided into north and blocked the mountain pass on the south side of the first line with large-caliber mortars and heavy machine gun fire."
Kenjiro Ikeda said bitterly: "The latest news is that the enemy troops who raided and captured the Xiushui River Bridge used large-caliber mortars and weapons that could shoot explosive packs, and directly collapsed the mountain pass on the south side of the line of the sky, completely blocking the mountain pass."
"Now, the second infantry brigade of the Chongteng Regiment, which had previously been counterattacked south, could not pass through the mountain pass on the south side of the front line and reach the north bank of the Xiushui River Bridge, General."
Upon hearing this, Taro Miyamoto and Kenichiro Takari, the captain of the 40th Infantry Regiment, both of them looked very bad.
"What should I do if you are the General?"
Colonel Gao Li Kenichiro, the captain of the 40th Infantry Regiment, felt it was difficult now. Even if you want to withdraw your troops, you can't go back to the north bank of the Xiushui River Bridge through the mountain pass on the south side of the first line.
Now, it was really blocked between Yishitian and Huting stronghold.
"Call the Type 96 land attack aircraft air strike group to bomb the Huting stronghold!"
Taro Miyamoto looked at the military map placed on the table at the military tent command center, then gritted his teeth and said to the communications officer Jiro Inaba: "We will concentrate our troops and attack the Huting stronghold again."
"The brigades that went south before the electric power ordered to concentrate explosives to see if they could explode the first line of Tiannan mountain pass with large-caliber mortars and explosive packs to block the rocks at the first line of Tiannan mountain pass. Once they break through, they will immediately send a report to the command center through the radio."
Upon hearing this, the communications officer Jiro Inaba bowed his head and said, "Yes, General." He immediately turned around and returned to the radio station, and ordered his Japanese communication soldiers to report to the Japanese counterattack brigade and the Type 96 land attack aircraft group that had traveled south.
Seeing Taro Miyamoto say this, Kenjiro Ikeda immediately said in a low voice: "Goding General, if the Totto Tsuki base can't be taken down?"
"I don't know if the mountain pass on the south side of the first line Tiantian can be broken through. If it cannot be broken through, if the Jinghai County is very likely to be lost, we can only temporarily set up camp between the first line Tiantian and the Huting stronghold and prepare for a long-term battle."
Taro Miyamoto said helplessly.
"Then you must ask the Commander for tactical guidance."
Pointing to the map, Gao Li Kenichiro, the captain of the 40th Infantry Regiment, interrupted and suggested: "General, if the mountain pass on the south side of the Yishitian cannot be broken through, we will be really trapped between the Yishitiantian and the Huting stronghold."
"Now our army still has more than 5,000 troops, but the food, grass, ammunition, especially food, is smooth before and after, so the food and grass that was escorted north with the army was actually only half a day."
After a pause, Kenichiro Gao Li continued to whisper: "Once the road behind cannot be continuously broken, and the Jinghai County will probably be lost soon, we will really have no subsequent ground supplies to send them."
"At that time, we can save some ammunition, but once the food and grass are exhausted, we will have no food and grass after twelve o'clock tonight at the latest."
"At that time, the Imperial Army soldiers will not die in battle, and they may starve to death due to lack of food and grass."
Of course, Taro Miyamoto understood this truth, so he gritted his teeth and said, "So, it depends on whether the mountain pass on the south side of the first line can be broken through;"
"If you can't break through, you can only set up camp and prepare for a protracted battle."
Seeing this, Kenjiro Ikeda interrupted, "God General, then report our current situation to the Commander!"
"Request, request tactical guidance."
Seeing that Kenjiro Ikeda agreed with Kenichiro Gao Li just now, Taro Miyamoto thought about it and gritted his teeth and said, "Then let Jiro Inaba send a message to the headquarters and ask the commander for tactical guidance."
"Report our current situation and actual difficulties to the Commander! In this way, ask the Commander to send troops to reinforce us, mainly to reinforce Jinghai County."
Hearing this, Kenjiro Ikeda and Kenichiro Takari looked at each other, which was another way to solve the current dilemma.
Now, Jinghai County is also attacked by enemy troops.
Once lost, the consequences will be unimaginable.
"Yes, Your Excellency General."
Kenjiro Ikeda nodded, then waved his hand to Jiro Inaba who kicked the military tent command and asked him to send a report to the First Japanese Army Command again.
Taro Miyamoto said to Kenichiro, the captain of the 40th Infantry Regiment: "Gaolijun, the total force here is currently more than 4,000 in front of the Huting stronghold. Therefore, after the Type 96 land attack aircraft group flew to the enemy's position at the Huting stronghold, the 40th Infantry Regiment dispatched a squad to attack the Huting stronghold under the cover of the artillery group of artillery groups of 92 infantry artillery."
"Look at whether we can break through the Huting stronghold and make progress."
Upon hearing this, Gao Li Kenichiro, the captain of the 40th Infantry Regiment, who knew the current situation, had no idea of preserving his strength.
"I understand, General."
Gaoli Kenichiro stood up with a heavy bow.
"Yoxi, he is worthy of being the mighty general of the empire."
Taro Miyamoto nodded, knowing that Kenichiro Takari knew the current situation.
Soon, Kenichiro Gaoli immediately left the military tent command center of Taro Miyamoto, returned to his temporary wing headquarters, mobilized the wing's second infantry brigade headquarters, and prepared for attacks under the cover of his own artillery fire after bombing the Type 96 land attack aircraft group.
At this time, the Japanese's actions were soon seen by Xu Rui at the observation port of the reinforced concrete bunker fortifications.
"Is Taro Miyamoto going to continue attacking the Totto Tsuki stronghold?"
Xu Rui, who was watching with a telescope, said to Luo Youdu, the chief of staff beside him.
"It should be."
Luo Youdu also held up his telescope and observed it outwards, then said: "Looking at the actions of the Japanese, it is probably the battle formation of an infantry brigade."
"But, the attack was not launched immediately. Don't they know that we had issued a clear code to announce that Prince Fumimi Toshihiko was shot dead by us on the second floor of the tower at the outer field airport of Dongmen City, Kyohai County? At this time, when the rear road was cut off, Taro Miyamoto should withdraw his troops and turn around, right?"
When Xu Rui heard this, he shook his head and said, "The latest news from Xu Dahu sent a newspaper that the mountain pass on the south side of the first line of Tiannan has been blown up by Xu Dahu commanding the cavalry and wolf-fanged special forces, using large-caliber mortars and two flying thunder cannons to blow up the stones on the tops of the mountain pass on the south side of the first line of Tiannan, blocking the mountain pass on the south side of the first line of Tiannan."
"Xu Dahu telegraphed that unless the Japanese use explosives from a division, they cannot use explosives to blow up a large number of stones and smash them down, blocking the mountain pass on the south side of the sky."
Upon hearing this, Chief of Staff Luo Youdu's eyes lit up and said, "That is to say, the Japanese counterattack troops under Miyamoto Taro are now completely blocked by us between the Yishitian and the Huting stronghold?"
"almost!"
Xu Rui nodded, then smiled and said, "So, we are as stable as Mount Tai now."
"As long as the Huting stronghold blocks block the Japanese attacks, then we will be trapped and starved to death by the Japanese counterattack army commanded by Taro Miyamoto, and there will be no big problem."
Luo Youdu nodded, and that's true.
“Reporting group.”
At this moment, Gu Jiaping, the communications staff officer of the 303rd Regiment of the Shanxi Sui Army, walked to Xu Rui and Luo Youdu, stood attentively and saluted: "Chief of Staff, we intercepted the latest radio sent by Taro Miyamoto to the First Japanese Army Command and the Japanese Type 96 land attack aircraft group."
"These are two deciphered telegrams after the interception."
Xu Rui took it and nodded, and said, "Yes!" and then he started to look.
There were not many deciphered contents for the two copies, and Xu Rui read it very quickly. After reading it, he handed it to Luo Youdu, the chief of staff next to him, and said, "No wonder, the Japanese infantry brigade's troops suddenly unfolded. This is an infantry attack after the air strike!"
"It seems that the initiative on the battlefield is completely in our hands!"
Luo Youdu said with a smile.
"That's right."
Xu Rui also smiled, and then said to the confidential staff officer beside him: "I ordered brothers on all positions to pay attention to air defense. The Japanese Type 96 land attack aircraft group will probably fly over the Huting stronghold for bombing in more than twenty minutes."
"I understand, the group seat."
The staff officer called by Xu Rui nodded, then turned around and walked to a table with a battlefield telephone, picked up the phone and directly communicated to the front-line officers on various positions through the phone, preparing the air defense preparations for each unit.
At this time, the First Japanese Army Command.
The emergency call from Taro Miyamoto requested tactical guidance has arrived.
"Taro Miyamoto, it's such a waste."
Shinozuka Yoshinan saw the report from the commander of the 4th Brigade Taro Miyamoto, and then said frowned at the Chief of Staff of the First Army Command.
"Commander."
Miyano thought for a while and said, "Although Taro Miyamoto did not clearly define the specific meaning of requesting tactical guidance, he was nothing more than asking for reinforcements."
"Especially, once the capital of Kyohai is lost, Miyamoto Taro, who is on the front line of the Huting stronghold, commanded the remaining 5,000 imperial troops. If they fight tonight, the food and grass will be really cut off."
When Yoshinosuka heard this, he knew that Miyano Dao was right.
Immediately, Yoshinomi Shinozuka stared at the map, supported his hands on the table, and his eyes fixedly looked at the map and began to think about it.
"There are only more than 500 people left in Jinghai County and more than 2,000 Imperial Army. The Imperial Army's combat effectiveness is negligible. Now it has captured the field airport and the enemy who killed His Highness has already arrived at Jinghai County and is attacking fiercely."
Shinozuka Yoshinomiya said to Miyao Doichi with a serious look: "And Miyamoto Taro was completely blocked by the stones blown by the enemy's large-caliber mortars because the stones blown by the enemy's large-caliber mortars were completely blocked by the mountain pass on the mountain pass on the mountain pass on the mountain pass on the mountain pass on the mountain. They have been blocked between the mountain pass and the Huting stronghold."
"In a short time, I'm afraid I can't go back to Jinghai County through the Xiushui River Bridge."
Miyano Daichi then continued, "So, commander, I suggest that a reinforcement army must be sent to reinforce the defenders in Jinghai County."
"Which troops can quickly arrive at Jinghai County for reinforcements?"
Yoshinomi Shinozuka asked directly.
"Here, Commander, here."
Miyano Dao pointed to the map and the Japanese stationed in a city closest to Jinghai County, saying: "The 41st Infantry Regiment belongs to the 3rd Brigade can fight to Jinghai County for reinforcements within two hours."
