my bright sword career

Chapter 306 What's going on
"Suzuki-kun, how did you become like this?"

Just when Gao Hongming was happy to accept a new chief of staff, Shigeyasu Suzuki, who was out of breath, appeared in the headquarters of the 37th Division. Looking at Shigeyasu Suzuki who looked embarrassed, Anda 23 couldn't believe his eyes.

Of course he knew that the Ninth Brigade was defeated, but because the incident happened suddenly, and he had to command the 37th Division to launch an attack on Guojialing, he only knew that the Liantai Militia and the Eighth Route Army suddenly attacked the Ninth Brigade together. The regiment launched an attack, so that he, a classmate of the Lu University, suffered a disadvantage, but he never thought that he would be so embarrassed.

Seeing Adachi 23's surprised expression, Suzuki Shigeyasu showed a bitter expression: "Anda-kun, I'm really sorry for causing you trouble."

"What the hell happened." Anda 23 had already realized that things might be worse than he expected, but he still couldn't understand how things came to this point.

"Today, the Liantai militia and the Eighth Route Army launched a sudden attack on the Ninth Brigade. Not only did they use heavy artillery to prepare for our position for half an hour, but they also dispatched tank troops, which caught us off guard."

Suzuki Shigeyasu said in a daze: "Less than 10 minutes after the opponent launched an attack, my first position was breached, and then the Chinese army launched an attack on the second position. Just as I was about to send an independent tank brigade to attack China When the Chinese launched a counterattack, a small Chinese army suddenly touched near my headquarters.

At first I didn't take it seriously, thinking it was just a small group of troops from China, but I didn't expect the firepower of these Chinese people to be extremely fierce.In less than half an hour, the garrison had nearly a squadron on the Internet, and I immediately ordered the chariot brigade to attack. "

Hearing this, Anda 23 nodded. Suzuki Shigeyasu was right to do so, and he would have made the same decision otherwise.

"But...but..."

Speaking of this, Suzuki Shigeyasu showed regret on his face, "At the beginning, the tank squadron really went smoothly, and once pressed the opponent back again and again, but then they actually called for artillery support. In less than 10 minutes, my The chariot brigade was blown away by the opponent's heavy artillery, and the garrison was also killed and wounded, so I was forced to order a retreat."

"The Chinese people actually used heavy artillery?"

Anda 23's expression became serious. The commander of Gangcun had warned them before that the Liantai militia was different from the national army they had encountered before.Not only do they have a strong artillery, they even have dozens of aircraft.

But fortunately, they don't have many fighters. They suffered a lot in the air battle with the third flight group a few days ago, and they haven't seen their planes dispatched for several days.

However, Anda 23 did not underestimate the Liantai Militia for this reason. For this reason, he and Suzuki Shigeyasu specially formulated a strategy to attack the Third Army first, and then the Liantai Militia and the Eighth Route Army. Unexpectedly, it was not long after the war with the Third Army Well, the Liantai militia teamed up with the Eighth Route Army to attack the Ninth Brigade.

After pondering for a while, Anda 23 said: "Mr. Suzuki, it seems that Gao Hongming and the Eighth Route Army have seen through our plan. If I guessed correctly, after they defeated your brigade, they will try to harass 37 tomorrow. Division, so we can't attack the third army with all our strength."

Originally, Suzuki Shigeyasu was already irritable because of his defeat, but now when he heard Adachi 23 say this, his face turned green and then pale, stood up and said loudly: "Don't worry, Adachi-kun, I won't It's hard for you.

I'm going to straighten out the troops right now, and tomorrow I'll lead the Ninth Brigade to launch a counterattack against the Liantai militia, and I won't let them affect our original plan! "

After speaking, he picked up the command knife and was about to walk out of the headquarters, but was pulled back by Anda 23.

"Suzuki-kun, what are you doing?"

Anda 23 said sharply, "This is China... it's the battlefield, not the exercise we held on the mainland. If you lose, you can do it again. Do you think you have the ability to launch a counterattack with your current strength?"

"I……"

Suzuki Shigeyasu really wanted to say, even if I don't have the ability, I can die on the battlefield, but I can't say it.

When officials are in their position, naturally they can't talk about "jade fragments" like low-level military officers, all day long as if it is an honor to die for the emperor.

The Ninth Brigade lost less than 3000 people in this battle today. Although it can’t be said that the Ninth Brigade has a strength of more than 8000 people, it is also a serious injury. It is not easy to reorganize the troops in one night. .

If he really wanted to do this, judging from the firepower of the Liantai militia that he met today, the Ninth Brigade would probably be 'broken', and then he, the brigade leader, would really have to cut open his stomach and apologize.

Seeing that Shigeyasu Suzuki didn't speak, Anda23 also knew his old classmate's temper. He patted him on the shoulder and slowed down his tone: "I know that you feel very uncomfortable when you suffered a setback today, but as an imperial For senior generals, we have to take a long-term view.

It is true that the Chinese took advantage today, but there will be a long time to come. What we have to do now is to drag those Chinese people here firmly, and when our large army arrives, those Chinese people will not even have wings Can't escape. "

"I understand."

After being comforted by Anda 23, Suzuki Shigeyasu also regained his senses, "Anda-kun, thank you for your enlightenment. But I would like to advise you, you'd better arrive as soon as possible with your artillery regiment, otherwise tomorrow if the Liantai militia If there is another surprise attack on the 37th Division, we will be very passive."

"I know."

Adachi nodded.

"I have ordered the artillery wing to speed up. They can arrive tonight and go into battle tomorrow. By then, we won't have to fear the artillery fire from the Chinese."

Speaking of this, Suzuki Shigeyasu gritted his teeth: "The Lu Hang people are really trash. They have just fought a few battles with the Chinese and never showed up again. If the Lu Hang plane can support them today, the Ninth Brigade I won’t suffer such a disastrous defeat either. After this battle is over, I will definitely sue these bastards to Commander Gangcun!”

Hearing this, Anda 23 also frowned. The performance of Army Aviation these days is indeed a bit strange. It stands to reason that although some aircraft were lost a few days ago, considering the size of the third flight group, they still bear the loss. It's worth it, why do they seem to disappear collectively these days? What's going on?
