    All this seems to be after their troops completed the landing in the Pingjin area.

    Originally, according to Yoshijiro Kozu¡¯s judgment, their main force in the mainland could easily reverse the occupation after landing in the Heitin area.

    Break their passive situation and regain the initiative on the battlefield.

    But things did not happen as he had expected. On the contrary, the enemy on the opposite side, whether it was the Fourth Army or the Eighth Route Army, continued to attack and even intensified.

    After three days of fighting, they had fewer victories and more defeats, and had lost tens of thousands of troops.

    This far exceeded his previous expectations. He felt that the enemy might launch a counterattack, but this counterattack might not last long. It was more like the reflection of a dying person.

    But now the enemy's attack has lasted for three or four days and shows no signs of weakening at all.

    "I think we have to consider giving up the rear. If this continues, the enemy may kill a lot of our additional soldiers."

    At this time, a Japanese military staff officer on the side said.

    After Sakon Shiya left, he temporarily took over his position.

    "Do you think that by increasing our troops little by little in the rear, we are actually giving the enemy every opportunity to defeat them?"

    ¡°That¡¯s right, I think we should fully shrink our defense lines now and wait for good news from the Ping-Tianjin area.

    After all, we have lost a lot of troops during this period, and it is already difficult to control such a long line of defense.  "

    The Japanese staff officer told the truth.

    He still pinned his hopes of victory on the Japanese troops in the Pingjin area.

    At least, in the past few days, they have continuously lost positions and troops in the Jinzhou area.

    But the offensive in the Pingjin area was carried out very smoothly.

    Last night, their troops had arrived at Langfang City and launched a tentative attack.

    Although the enemy has deployed defenses in Langfang in advance to block their troops from attacking, it is only a matter of time before Langfang is surrounded by a Japanese division and captured.

    "No, we can't just place our hopes on the troops in the Pingjin area.

    Our defense line cannot be easily retracted. The enemy on the opposite side will not give us such a chance.

    I can guarantee that as long as our position shrinks, the armored troops that have been dormant on the opposite side will launch a fierce attack on our position as soon as possible.

    By then, even our shrinking defense lines may be overwhelmed by the enemy's armored forces, and their powerful impact will immediately be overwhelmed.

    ??Can you bear the consequences of this?  "

    As Yoshijiro Kozu said this, he couldn't help but miss Sakon Shiya.

    If Sakonshi were here now, he would not say such stupid things.

    Unfortunately, Sakon Shiya is currently besieged by the Eighth Route Army and cannot break through the encirclement.

    "Hai!!!"

    The Japanese staff officer immediately said loudly.

    He wants to perform in front of Meijiro Kazu, but now it seems that he still has a long way to go before he wants to replace Shiya Sakon.

    At least, not now.

    It¡¯s hundreds of kilometers away from here.

    Langfang City is a small city located between Peking and Tianjin.

    This is the throat connecting the two cities. If the Japanese army controls this place, they can completely cut off the connection between the two cities.

    The troops of the Fourth Army in the two cities were unable to help each other and support each other.

    At this time, there were a regiment of soldiers stationed in the city.

    The leader is none other than Cai Heyuan, the former guard under Xia Yang.

    He originally served in the artillery force, but now he was temporarily transferred here to participate in the defense of Langfang City.

    In addition to more than 3,000 regular troops, Cai Heyuan also organized a lot of defense forces in the city.

    For example, stretcher-bearing teams, militia troops, and ordinary people who help them build defensive positions and barricades will all play a very important role in this defensive operation.

    Cai Heyuan grew a beard at this time. According to Liu Fudong, he would look more dignified by doing so.

    In fact, it¡¯s because Cai Heyuan is too young and doesn¡¯t look like he can convince the public.

    Let him keep a little beard?, looks older and more vicissitudes of life.

    Cai Heyuan lit a cigarette, and his young face was actually stained by the battlefield.

    "Regiment seat, we have found out that the little devils opposite, a division of troops, are troops from Japan. The number is the 122nd Division. It was originally the reserve division of the Japanese 22nd Division. Now because of their combat personnel  The shortage has also transformed into a regular division.¡±

    The person speaking next to him was his adjutant Chang Sanqing.

    "Sanqing, tell me, how effective are the Japanese soldiers in these reserve divisions?"

    As he said this, he handed over a cigarette.

    Chang Sanqing is tall and thin, not very old, only in his early twenties.

    He is a graduate of the officer training class in the ancient city of Mongolia and Yuan Dynasty, and his grades are very good.

    However, this is the first time he has truly entered the army as a staff officer.

    "Their combat effectiveness is similar to that of regular divisions. They are just placed as strategic reserves on the mainland."

    Chang Sanqing said, "However, the fact that they have activated such a reserve team shows that the little Japanese troops on the opposite side have only their last breath left."

    "That's right, it's my last breath."

    Cai Heyuan said, reaching out his hand and touching his mustache.

    "This time, we have to kill him with his last breath."

    As he spoke, there was an explosion in the distance.

    Cai Heyuan narrowed his eyes, picked up the telescope, and looked ahead to where the explosion came from.

    ¡°To the southeast is our defensive position in Zhaozhuang.

    The little devil¡¯s troops are advancing very quickly.  "

    As Cai Heyuan spoke, he said to Chang Sanqing behind him: "Old Chang, let me know, everyone will enter the combat position, and the common people will enter the air-raid shelter.

    I am afraid that the Japs¡¯ artillery will also bombard Langfang City.  "

    "yes!!!"

    Chang Sanqing said and immediately began to pass on his orders.

    When he finished speaking, the Japanese artillery launched the second round of bombardment.

    ¡°Boom boom boom!!¡±

    The explosion was like thunder running across the sky, echoing over Langfang City.

    Hearing this sound, the people subconsciously looked to the sky above their heads.

    It was a sunny day, so they knew it was the explosion of artillery shells.

    A soldier on horseback shouted: "Everyone, enter the air-raid shelter immediately!! The Japanese army is about to attack!!!" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
