    Regarding this battle, Tetsujiro Yamada is still very clear-minded!

    Maybe I didn¡¯t know much about Li Guoyao¡¯s troops before and thought that the enemy in front of me was just a bunch of rabble. However, after the battles in the past few days and what I learned from the North China Front Army Headquarters, I learned that the Chinese army in front of me may be the most powerful combat force on the entire Chinese battlefield.  One of the strongest troops.

    "When fighting against such elites, one must be very alert, otherwise one may be accidentally plotted by the opponent.

    Just like the previous two days, he didn't even notice that the opponent's small troops rushed to his rear, turning Lanling City upside down!

    At present, the main force of the division commander Kimura Hy¨­taro is not taking action. Instead, they are being forced to move forward in two directions. This is a military adventure in itself.

    Major General Yamada knows that this combat mission is very dangerous, and if he is not careful, his entire army will be wiped out!

    If at the end of the battle, Kimura's peripheral troops cannot break through Li Guoyao's blockade for a long time, then their troops that broke into the enemy's hinterland will become a lone chess piece that can easily be eaten by the enemy's concentrated forces.  of.

    Of course, high risks must be accompanied by high rewards. If the plan succeeds, then this so-called Shandong Guerrilla Corps will collapse in an instant, and Li Guoyao's elite force will also be wiped out. By then, he will be promoted to a higher rank.  It can be said to be just around the corner.

    Yamada Tetsujiro, a born gambler, decided to take a risk. He ordered his troops to attack overnight and went straight to the hinterland of Xiong'er Mountain. He wanted to stab Li Guoyao's troops in the heart.

    After receiving the telegram from the front line, Li Guoyao smiled and secretly thought that these little devils were really fanciful and thought that his main force would be dragged to the front line in Zaozhuang. They were too naive.

    In Li Guoyao's eyes, the main purpose of this battle is to annihilate the effective forces of the Japanese army. It doesn't matter what base area or lair it is!

    Anyway, in the past few days, the people in the base area have almost evacuated. When most of the people have withdrawn into the mountainous area, what can the little devils do even if they invade the hinterland of Xiong'er Mountain?

    "The worst case scenario is that we burn down the house again like last time. It's not the twelfth lunar month of winter anyway. Without the house, people will freeze to death."

    Mid-June is the best time of the year in Shandong. The crops have been cultivated and the temperature is very warm. Even if you sleep outside in the middle of the night, you don¡¯t feel cold. On the contrary, you will feel stuffy at home.

    Therefore, while mobilizing troops to prepare for a head-on attack on Yamada's headquarters, Li Guoyao ordered all remaining troops to dispatch and lay mines and various explosives in all the traffic arteries and valleys and rivers leading to the hinterland of Xiong'er Mountain.

    In addition, Li Guoyao also ordered Xu Guangkun's troops who had completed the attack on Lanling to return to the base immediately, asking them to attack quickly, bite Yamada Tetsujiro's tail, coldly attack the enemy's fighting spirit, and slow down the enemy's marching speed.

    The main force also quickly followed up and planned to encircle and annihilate Yamada Tetsujiro's few Japanese soldiers.

    With the efforts of Li Guoyao's troops, Yamada Tetsujiro once again saw the difficulty of Li Guoyao's troops!

    For Major General Yamada, this road can be said to be a real road to hell, and he experienced a journey of death.

    Along the way, there must be ambushes in the mountains, and there must be mines in the woods. From time to time, a few mortar shells will fall from the sky, or they will be violently beaten by machine gun positions set up on the highlands.

    What is even more frightening is the large number of snipers under Li Guoyao. Anyone who dares to wear an officer's uniform, ride a horse and wear a command knife will be attacked by snipers relentlessly. Even those technical troops carrying radios and heavy machine guns will be attacked from time to time.  Got hit.

    What¡¯s even more incredible is that in just five kilometers, they encountered 13 minefields, basically reaching a terrifying density of one minefield every half a kilometer.

    It stands to reason that there is no longer the main force of Li Guoyao's troops here, and judging from the fighting situation in the past few days, their direction is not the focus of the defense. There are not many defenders, only a few hundred or even thousands.  people.

    Where did they get so much energy to plant so many landmines almost overnight?

    For a time, Tetsujiro Yamada had a bad premonition about this military operation.

    What worries Yamada Tetsujiro the most is that due to the endless harassment of the troops, the troops are marching extremely slowly. It takes at most one and a half days from their current position to Jiguanzi Gu, the first pass in the hinterland of Xiong'er Mountain.  distance.

    At that time, I went to this speed, I am afraid that there was no three or five days at all, but?When they arrive, the army may have fled long ago.

    In order to reduce the casualties of the Japanese army, Tetsujiro Yamada immediately ordered the puppet troops who cooperated with their actions to be at the forefront!

    And in order to speed up the process, Major General Yamada ordered to forcibly drive these Imperial Army troops into the minefield to clear the way for his elite troops!

    Under this ruthless order, the puppet troops killed and injured more than 600 people in just one afternoon.

    However, in the eyes of Major General Tetsujiro Yamada, this price is worth it. The Imperial Alliance Army is used to clear the way for the Imperial Army. No matter how many people die, it will not be a pity.

    Even if all the Imperial Alliance Army are dead, can he still go to the prisoner-of-war camp to form a new Imperial Alliance Army? Anyway, there are many prisoners in the prisoner-of-war camp.

    What¡¯s important is that after an afternoon¡¯s march, the troops marched more than ten kilometers, three times the distance they marched in the morning.

    ??If this continues, the troops will be able to reach Jiguanzigu by noon tomorrow at the latest.

    And along the way, small troops have been attacking them, or they have used landmines and other indiscriminate means. They have never seen the large troops under Li Guoyao come forward to stop them. This has further strengthened the idea of ????Major General Yamada Tetsujiro.

    However, what Major General Yamada did not expect was that something embarrassing happened to him when the troops were resting at night!

    Perhaps because he could not bear the huge casualties, after the troops rested at night, a regiment commander of the Imperial Association Army, after killing the sentry on duty, led a regiment of infantrymen to escape and took away some weapons and ammunition.  Only an empty barracks and dozens of corpses of Japanese military advisers were left for Tetsujiro Yamada.

    After the incident happened, Major General Yamada was immediately stunned!

    On the one hand, he was angry that these Imperial Alliance troops had the courage to rebel on the battlefield!

    On the other hand, he realized that the matter was a bit serious. His independent mixed sixth brigade originally had very limited troops. Even after being supplemented, the entire brigade had less than 4,000 people. Plus the puppet troops who cooperated with the operation  The military strength reached 5,500 people.

    After Lanling was attacked, he mobilized all his cavalry for reinforcements, but they have not returned yet.

    In addition, the casualties of the troops in the past few days have been quite large. Now these Imperial Alliance troops suddenly rebelled, and the number of troops under his command dropped to less than 3,000 in an instant.

    More importantly, the morale of the troops was very low after experiencing several heavy losses in succession, coupled with the difficulty of marching along the way.

    And morale directly affects the combat effectiveness of the troops. Therefore, Major General Yamada sadly discovered that with only the more than 3,000 troops in hand, it was really difficult for them to fight all the way to the hinterland of Xiong'er Mountain, and it was even more impossible to complete the task of annihilating Li Guoyao's troops.

    However, the current situation is that his troops have penetrated deep into the hinterland of Xiong'er Mountain, and the troops of Shinozuka Kunigoro who are cooperating with their attack are about to reach the end of the ground. At this time, they cannot retreat no matter what.

    For a moment, Tetsujiro Yamada felt that he was really being roasted on a stove, and he was in a dilemma!

    If the troops advance, it will be difficult for the troops to gain anything. If they retreat, there will be more problems. What's even more frightening is that if he withdraws at this time, once the battle is lost, Mr. Kimura is likely to put the blame on him.

    However, just when Major General Yamada was hesitating whether to retreat or join up with the main force of Kimura Hyoutarou, he received an urgent telegram from the 12th Army Headquarters, saying that reconnaissance planes had discovered a large number of Chinese troops outside their perimeter.  The army, in astonishing numbers, seemed to be heading towards them.

    After receiving the telegram, Tetsujiro Yamada was shocked!

    The reconnaissance plane was obviously unmistakable. Since a large number of Chinese troops appeared in the periphery, it was obviously the main force of Li Guoyao's army that had arrived.

    He knew the combat effectiveness of Li Guoyao's troops. If there were three to two thousand people, it would be fine. Once it exceeded five thousand, it would be difficult to fight. If there were more, the consequences would be even more disastrous.

    You must know that he only has about 3,000 men in his hands now, and their morale is still low. The remaining soldiers who have just experienced the rebellion of the Imperial Association Army have no capital to fight with Li Guoyao's troops.

    After being shocked, Tetsujiro Yamada immediately sent a report to the 32nd Division Headquarters, requesting an emergency retreat.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
