In fact, even Tada Jun himself didn't realize that because the Japanese army was defeated repeatedly and suffered heavy losses, it had seriously affected Tada's self-confidence.If it had been before, Tada Jun would not hesitate at all.Seeing Tada Jun frowning and thinking bitterly, with a hesitant expression, Yukio Kasahara couldn't help but sigh softly.Tada Jun thought for a while, turned around and glanced at Kasahara Yukio, frowned and asked with a serious face: "Kasawara-kun, what do you think we should do now" "Well" Kasahara Yukio hesitated for a moment, and then said with a respectful face: "In my humble opinion, Datong was besieged by the Shina army, and the Ninth Independent Mixed Brigade was isolated, I am afraid that it will be difficult to hold Datong, and the imperial army must not see death without help."
The humble post probably guessed what His Excellency the commander was worried about, but the humble post thought that the independent 3rd Mixed Brigade and the 33rd Division could be temporarily ordered to go north to support Datong, and if there was a chance to rescue Datong, it would be saved, and if there was no chance, it would not be too late to let it retreat.Moreover, he thought that we should mobilize more troops to support northern Jinbei as soon as possible, and absolutely not let the entire northern Jinbei region fall into the hands of the Chinese people. ”"Yo Xi" Tada Jun nodded and said: "Just do as you say, immediately send a telegram to the Independent 3rd Mixed Brigade and the 33rd Division, and order them to immediately rush north to support Datong."
In addition, the main force of the 8th Independent Mixed Brigade stationed in Shimen was immediately dispatched to support the northern Shanxi region. ”Yukio Kasawara frowned slightly and said: "Your Excellency, Commander, now that the Eighth Route Army has launched a large-scale sabotage war in the entire North China region, if the independent Eighth Mixed Brigade of Shimen is transferred to Shanxi, it will inevitably have an adverse impact on the security in the Shimen area. ”Tada Jun sighed helplessly and said: "Do you think we have other troops that can be transferred to the northern Jin region now, except for the main force of the Eighth Route Army in Chahar and the seventh column in the northern Jin region, the other Eighth Route Army has low combat effectiveness and cannot pose a threat to a big city like Shimen at all."
It is only necessary to transfer a part of the troops from Baoding and Xingtai to move the Shimen to ensure that the Shimen is safe.Now that's all it takes, let's carry out the order" "Hai" Yukio Kasahara responded respectfully, turned around and went to deliver the order.Early the next morning, after Li Guotao had breakfast, he hurried to the headquarters.As soon as he entered the door, he asked loudly: "What about the chief of staff?"
"Report to the commander, the chief of staff and the political commissar are still in Shuozhou, not here." ”At this time, a staff officer hurriedly replied.Li Guotao couldn't help but stretch out his hand and pat his forehead, and said with a wry smile: "Look at me, I'm so confused that I forgot about this stubble, and I'm used to it, this chief of staff is not by my side, I'm really a little unused to it" "Then it's better to let the chief of staff come over" The staff officer said with a smile.Li Guotao waved his hand and said: "We have just recovered Shuozhou, and the aftermath work is complicated, and the political commissar may not be able to do it alone, so it should be easier to have the help of the chief of staff."
Okay, let's not talk about that, tell me how the situation is now. ”"Yes" The staff officer replied respectfully, and then pointed to the sand table and said: "According to the latest information we have received, the Japanese Army's independent 3rd Mixed Brigade and the 33rd Division have crossed the Hengshan Mountain Range, and their vanguard troops have reached the Yuanying area.According to this speed, it is estimated that these two little devils will be able to rush to Anrong Township to the front line of the ancient town this afternoon. ”After hearing this, Li Guotao couldn't help frowning slightly, sighed softly and said, "The speed of these little devils is not slow, but no matter when they arrive, it is the same, we are waiting for them here, waiting for them to work." ”Li Guotao paused, then his eyes fell on Datong, and asked with a frown: "How is the battle situation on the Datong side?"
"Report commander, according to the latest battle report, the main force of the Eighth Theater has successfully broken through all the peripheral positions of the Japanese army outside Datong City, and is preparing to launch a final general attack on Datong City. ”The staff officer replied respectfully.Li Guotao frowned and said: "Datong is an important town in the north of Jin, the terrain is dangerous, the city is high and the walls are thick, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack.It seems that if the 35th Army and other departments want to recover Datong, it is not so easy for Datong's devils to form an independent 9th mixed brigade, which has become a lone army, and will inevitably fight the trapped beasts.From this point of view, there will inevitably be a bloody battle in Datong" "Yes, I really don't know if they can recover Datong." ”The staff officer couldn't help but speak.Li Guotao smiled and said: "As long as we block the reinforcements of the devils, the Ninth Independent Mixed Brigade is isolated and helpless, and it is only a matter of time before it is completely annihilated." ”"Hmm," the staff officer nodded approvingly.Li Guotao thought for a while, and said with a serious face: "Inform all troops to prepare for battle, as long as the little devil dares to come, he will beat Lao Tzu to death" "Yes" The staff officer responded respectfully."
Wait a minute" "What else does the commander have to order" Li Guotao said with a serious face: "Anyway, there is nothing to do now, the little devil will not be able to arrive for a while, I will go out, go to various positions to take a look, and if there is anything, notify me in time."
If you can't contact me then, you can ask Brigadier Li Yongfu. ”"Yes," the staff officer replied respectfully, and then said, "Then the commander should be careful on the road and pay attention to safety." ”"Got it" Li Guotao said casually, turned around and strode out.The guard Kou Erbao was chatting with a soldier of the Eighth Route Army outside the door, and when he saw Li Guotao walking out, he hurriedly greeted him, and said with a smile: "Commander, where are you going?"
”Li Guotao said casually."
Yes" Kou Erbao responded excitedly when he heard this, and hurriedly ran to call someone to prepare the horse, this guy was idle and bored, and he was naturally very happy to be able to go out and take a breath.After a while, Kou Erbao and a few guards brought over a few horses, and Li Guotao turned over and got on the horse.Kou Erbao and the others also got on the horse, Kou Erbao asked with a smile: "Brigade commander, where are we going" Li Guotao sat on the horseback and moved his muscles, grabbed the reins of the horse and said with a smile: "Let's go to Anrong Township first, and see what the old boy in Changde is doing now, this old rabbit cub, he is usually the most lazy, and Lao Tzu has to see how his position is built."
After saying that, he galloped out.Kou Erbao smiled, and several guards also rode up one after another.aa2705221:
