The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

"General..."

The chief of staff lowered his head and reported in a low voice.

"Combined with yesterday's loss, the three infantry brigades we attacked Pingyang Town are left with only two infantry brigades and one infantry squadron."

"Continue to fight at this loss rate, we..."

"...We... need to lose at least three squadrons to end the battle and take Pingyang Town."

"boom……"

Major General Fujita was so angry that he punched the table in front of him.

With a sweep of his arm, the map on the table, the teacup... all fell to the ground.

Still not relieved when it was over, he drew out his command knife and slashed at the desk in front of him.

The sharp blade fell more than ten centimeters into the table in an instant before stopping.

Everyone in the headquarters was shocked, for fear that the brigade commander would vent his anger on himself.

"boom……"

Major General Fujita put away his command saber, inserted it into the scabbard, and forgot to punch the table before opening his mouth.

"Bageyalu, I have fought for so many years, and I have never been so aggrieved as I am today."

"A small town."

"Airplanes, heavy artillery, explosives..."

"I used everything that could be used, but I didn't hit it for two days."

"The Kwantung Army lost all face."

The chief of staff stood aside, not daring to vent his anger.

The head of the brigade has always been known for his iron fist, he is very powerful in fighting, and he is also very arrogant.

Otherwise, he would not stand out from so many brigade leaders in the three eastern provinces, representing the Kwantung Army to reinforce the North China Front Army.

It turned out to be like this.

No matter how angry Major General Fujita is, he can accept it.

It wasn't until the head of the brigade got tired of scolding that he stared at the head of the brigade from the corner of his eye and comforted him softly: "General, calm down..."

"It's not all our responsibility that the troops are beaten like this."

"We are from the Kwantung Army and have never been exposed to tunnel warfare."

"The North China Front Army who is familiar with tunnel warfare has been defeated many times, let alone us."

"Today's loss is really big."

"But the results are also very gratifying."

"Half of the tunnels in Pingyang Town have been destroyed by us."

"As long as we successfully end the battle."

"It proves that our method of attacking the tunnel warfare of the Eighth Route Army is effective."

"In the next battle, we can let the left and right mopping troops go up, reducing the loss of the middle mopping troops."

"After all, this is fighting in North China."

"We are here to help, they are the protagonists of the battlefield."

"You can't turn against customers just because of your strong combat effectiveness, and steal their business."

Reducing the loss of troops and killing the Eighth Route Army in Yizhong are the two things Major General Fujita wants to do most now.

The Chief of Staff's proposal addressed exactly both of these problems.

The angry expression on his face was visibly relieved.

Glancing at the darkening sky outside the headquarters, he ordered decisively.

"Notify the demolition team to evacuate the town, and blockade troops to strengthen their vigilance to prevent the Eighth Route Army in the town from attacking us at night."

"Continue to blast the tunnel tomorrow and completely take down Pingyang Town."

…………

In the underground headquarters of the Shunping Garrison Regiment, several battalion commanders gathered here again.

Compared with the downcast last night, everyone is in a much better mood today.

Although I couldn't see the high fighting spirit at the beginning, at least my mood was not as low as last night.

Wang Lin was the first to speak: "Leader..."

"After strengthening and expanding, the tunnels in the town are more conducive to our operations."

"All day today, we killed at least 387 puppet soldiers, including [-] puppet soldiers."

"Self casualties are very small."

"58 people were sacrificed and 14 people were seriously injured, which is completely within the range of the troops."

"In terms of casualty ratio."

"Today's battle is definitely a big victory."

"The only problem is that there are not many tunnels left."

"According to the devil's blasting progress today, a layer of tunnels will be completely destroyed tomorrow."

"The troops must either go out of the tunnel and fight the devils, or retreat to the second-floor tunnel."

Chen Jia, the commander of the first battalion, interrupted suddenly: "We definitely can't go out of the tunnel to fight the devils."

"There are more than 3000 Japanese puppet troops left in the middle road sweeping force, and the strength is more than twice that of ours."

"The left and right sweeping troops are guarding the town, ready to join the battle at any time."

"It's equivalent to us having to carry the puppet army of tens of thousands of days with our own strength."

"Even if the soldiers are all heavenly soldiers and generals, they are not opponents."

Huang Yong, the commander of the third battalion, followed up and said, "We dug out the trenches on the second floor for emergencies."

"Because it is too deep, the length of the tunnel is less than one-third of the first floor."

"There is no tunnel leading out of the town either."

"If the first floor of the tunnel is completely destroyed by the devils, all the troops will retreat to the second floor of the tunnel."

"We are completely in a desperate situation, and there is nowhere to retreat if we want to retreat."

The more Wei Dayong listened, the more anxious he became, and he frowned and asked, "I don't want to go up, and I don't want to go down, isn't this just Silu?"

After speaking, he stared at Huang Yu expectantly and asked.

"Captain..."

"Do you have a third way..."

Speaking of this, Wei Dayong suddenly thought of the miracle that Huang Yu had created before, and said very firmly.

"there must be……"

"In my impression of you, there is nothing that the leader can't do."

"Don't be a fool..."

"If we don't say anything else, we will die in a hurry."

Huang Yu was silent for a long time before answering: "I do have ideas..."

"I thought about it last night, but I definitely can't do it unless it is absolutely necessary."

Wang Lin interrupted suddenly: "Now is the critical moment for the survival of the Shunping Defense Regiment."

"Captain..."

"If there is no better way, the army will be finished."

"Tell me, as long as you can defend Pingyang Town and keep the troops, I will accept no matter how high the price is."

Wei Dayong seemed to see something from Huang Yu's embarrassed expression, and asked again.

"Captain..."

"Do you need troops to carry out dangerous missions..."

"Don't make things difficult..."

"Although I hand it over to the Second Battalion, I, Wei Dayong, promise to complete the task."

Huang Yu didn't deny it, and said very seriously: "The Japanese army didn't dare to blast the tunnel at night because they were afraid that we would sneak attack them under the cover of night."

"Actually, we can also sneak attack on the devil's demolition team on the ground during the day."

"But we need to create a battlefield environment that works in our favor."

Wang Lin didn't understand: "How to create a battlefield environment?"

"The town has been bombed into ruins by the Japanese army, and there is not even a place to hide."

"As soon as the troops come out of the tunnel, they will be exposed in front of their eyes."

"Not only will there be no chance to sneak attack on the Japanese and puppet troops, but it will also become a living target for the Japanese and puppet troops."

Huang Yu answered immediately: "You've heard of the words "fishing in troubled waters..."

"As long as we mess up the battlefield."

"The army will have an opportunity to take advantage of."

"Devils don't mess up for no reason. Someone must take the initiative to attack them to disrupt them."

"The strike force is exposed to the ground."

"Not only do we have to face the joint attack of the little devil's heavy artillery and aircraft, but we also have to face the joint encirclement and suppression of the Japanese and puppet troops. We are close to death."

"That's why I haven't told everyone about this method."

Wei Dayong is an old man who followed Huang Yu, no matter what happened to him, he would not embarrass the head of the group, and immediately stood up and asked for orders.

"Captain..."

"You underestimate me, Wei Dayong."

"It's not the first time we have done the task of narrowly dying."

"I picked 100 people from the second battalion to go out to attack the little devil's blasting team. I promised to disrupt the battlefield so that the Japanese and puppet troops couldn't tell the difference between east, west, and north."
