The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

Chapter 636 I Lost Face (Second)
The North China Front Army Command of the Japanese Army, Ningji Okamura did not expect that Major General Ikeda's victory would fly away, and he was shot back by the Eighth Route Army. Became a stray dog.

The right hand holding the telegram trembled with anger and unwillingness.

"Slap..." He slapped the telegram on the table, and with a wave of his hand, a piece of porcelain on the table was overturned and smashed into a pile of pieces on the ground.

This is a priceless antique porcelain. The chief of staff was heartbroken seeing it, but he didn't dare to say a word.

Neiji Okamura seemed to be still angry, and smashed another antique vase into pieces before slumping on the chair.

The sweeping troops returned in a disastrous defeat. Not only did they fail to save face for the North China Command, but they also lost face.

Had they known today, they should have been allowed to withdraw from the mountain and return to Fangshan yesterday.Although it would be embarrassing, after all, more than 2000 mopping troops were saved.

Unlike now, he didn't save his face, and he was still in the headquarters worrying for more than ten hours, losing his wife and losing his army.

"Your Excellency, Commander, the Fangshan garrison has suffered heavy losses, and it is obvious that they no longer have the strength to continue sweeping Mao'er Mountain. I am worried that the Eighth Route Army will take the opportunity to break out of the mountain, expand its base area, and extend its tentacles to the plains outside the mountain, affecting the safety of Beiping." I don't know. After a long time, Ningji Okamura finally regained his composure and stopped smashing things. The chief of staff took the opportunity to raise the urgent problem that the headquarters needed to solve.

Neiji Okamura punched the table directly, and said with a vicious expression, "What can I do?"

"Fangshan's garrison is not strong enough, so we can only send reinforcements from other places. Do you need me to teach you such a simple question?"

The chief of staff replied with a wry smile: "The humble officer also wants to send troops to reinforce Fangshan and trap the enemy in the mountain, but there are no mobile troops around Beiping that can be dispatched, and Baoding, which is a little further away, is short of troops and urgently needs reinforcements, let alone dispatched troops." Soldiers have reinforced us."

"The humble official has an idea. I don't know if it is feasible. Please, Commander, make a decision."

"Say..." Neiji Okamura asked directly.

"Information shows that the Eighth Route Army operating in Mao'er Mountain comes from Yizhong, and it happens to be the opponent of the Baoding Garrison."

"If the Baoding garrison is allowed to move around and the Yizhong Eighth Route Army feels the danger, it will definitely send back the Eighth Route Army active in Mao'er Mountain. Then the remaining troops of the Fangshan Garrison will be able to seal off the mountain and cut off the tentacles of the Eighth Route Army extending to the plain. .”

Ningji Okamura strode to the sand table, stared at Baoding on it for a full minute, and then asked: "The Baoding garrison seems to have suffered heavy losses in the battle for Yi County. , Are they now attacking the Eighth Route Army in Yizhong again?"

The chief of staff thought for a while and replied: "It is definitely not powerful to launch a large-scale sweep directly, but you can make small troubles to make the Eighth Route Army feel the danger."

"The Eighth Route Army can use guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare to threaten the areas occupied by the imperial army, and we can also retaliate, using guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare to threaten the Eighth Route Army's base areas, so that they have no time to develop and are always in a state of nervous tension."

Neiji Okamura's tightly locked brows suddenly relaxed, and his eyes became brighter and brighter, as if he had discovered a new world, and he said with anticipation: "This is indeed a good way..."

"Immediately issue an order to the Baoding garrison and let them follow suit. We must let the Eighth Route Army in Yizhong feel the pressure that we want a large army to overwhelm the border, and force them to withdraw the Eighth Route Army that is active in Fangshan."

"But the problem of our shortage of troops still needs to be solved."

"You immediately notify the headquarters of the Appeasement Army...the North China Front Army will support them to form three more brigades of the Imperial Association Army, so that they can form combat effectiveness within three months, and they can also borrow troops from the Imperial Army to help them train at an appropriate time."

"I'll contact the country again and ask them to add [-] new recruits to us as soon as possible."

"If you can't do it, then contact the Kwantung Army. They have enough troops and are well-equipped. I will call the Kwantung Army headquarters in person. In the face of the commander of the North China Front Army, I will ask them to second a main brigade. It will definitely be no problem."

"Three months later, we must send troops to wipe out the Eighth Route Army in Yizhong to solve this serious problem."

…………

The Chief of Staff of the Eighth Route Army Headquarters ran in with a happy face: "Chief, Xiao Huang and Kong Jie are indeed our lucky generals."

"As soon as the Beiping guerrilla brigade was handed over to them, they achieved great results in eliminating more than 4000 Japanese puppet troops."

"This is the victory telegram that Kong Jie just forwarded."

"In order to reduce the anti-mopping pressure on the Yizhong base area and prevent Ningji Okamura from transferring troops from Beiping to reinforce Baoding, Kong Jie ordered our newly established guerrilla brigade in Beiping to take the initiative to eliminate many little devils who used to be stationed in Fangshan."

"Ningji Okamura had to mobilize heavy troops to encircle and suppress the Beiping guerrilla brigade in order to ensure the safety of Peiping."

"Comrade Huang Yu was ordered in the face of danger, and took a reinforcement company to ambush day and night, marching urgently to reinforce the guerrilla brigade."

"Not only defended the guerrilla brigade's garrison, but also squeezed and expanded the [-] mopping-up troops assembled by Okamura Neiji, and won the first anti-mopping victory since the establishment of the guerrilla brigade."

"After this stop, the guerrilla brigade has gained a firm foothold in the Beiping area."

The deputy commander-in-chief said with a smile on his face, "No wonder I heard magpies yelling in the command department early in the morning. It turns out that Kong Jie and Huang Yu fought another big victory."

"A newly established guerrilla brigade wiped out [-] to [-] Japanese puppet troops. It is definitely an unprecedented victory. The decision of the headquarters to hand over the guerrilla brigade to Huang Yu is considered right."

"But the intelligence department of the Japanese army is not a vegetarian, and it should be able to figure out the connection between Yizhong Buduo and the Beiping guerrilla detachment soon."

"Kong Jie led the wing center troops to take the initiative to attack Yi County, and then surrounded the point for reinforcements, severely injuring the Baoding garrison. As a result, Okamura Ningji's reinforcements transferred from the surrounding area to Baoding happened to be in place, resulting in the overall strength of the Baoding garrison. "

"If Neiji Okamura knew that the Beiping guerrilla brigade was under the command of the Yizhong Eighth Route Army, and that the troops in Peking were insufficient, the Baoding garrison would definitely be mobilized to take revenge on them."

"Immediately send a telegram to remind Kong Jie, let them keep an eye on the Baoding Japanese puppet army, and prevent them from engaging in petty actions that threaten the safety of the Yizhong Eighth Route Army."

"It is especially necessary to be prepared for anti-gas bombs. In the absence of an advantage in troops, they will definitely use some unconventional means to make up for their shortcomings. From the frequency of the use of gas bombs by the little devils on the battlefield recently, it can be seen that they are fighting more and more. The more unruly we get, the more our troops must prepare for the worst."

The smile on the chief of staff's face was quickly replaced by seriousness: "I'll send a telegram to Kong Jie in a while."
