    As the Japanese army invested all its forces, its offensive firepower increased a lot, and the situation on the front line seemed to be developing in a direction favorable to the Japanese army.

    Especially when he learned that the guard troops had intercepted the Chinese cavalry that suddenly came out and caused a lot of casualties to the opponent, Major General Sekihara Six in the temporary headquarters was relieved.

    As long as the troops can break through the outer positions of the Japanese army and enter the city, the enemy troops in the city will be unable to escape. They will have won most of this battle.

    Although for a major general brigade commander like him, annihilating a national army of one or two thousand people is not a great achievement, it will help him gain a foothold in the independent fifth brigade.

    As a newly appointed commander of a mixed brigade, Roku Yuan Sekihara is not as prosperous as he appears. The reason is that the previous commander of the brigade, Major General Akiyama, went south to attack Li Guoyao's headquarters twice. As a result, he lost troops and destroyed the honor of the entire brigade.  once.

    The current Fifth Brigade is a notoriously useless force in the entire Legion Headquarters, especially in the battle report submitted by the Legion Headquarters to the Front Army Headquarters.  Outside the ministry, only two to three hundred officers and soldiers survived the war and escaped. Although the commander of the Qiu Shan Brigade only escaped with his life, he was seriously injured. His artillery unit and radio station were all destroyed, which was an unprecedented incident in southern Shandong.  bloody battle."

    "After the news that the Qiushan Brigade was severely damaged in Lunan was spread back to China, it also caused quite a commotion. Although the base camp did not express any position, the people were quite dissatisfied with the Fifth Brigade.

    For the people in the country, although the frontline troops are not incapable of defeating the battles, losing the battles one after another is unacceptable. So many people made it clear that they did not want to be incorporated into the Fifth Brigade when sending their families to join the army.

    The troops are not favored, and the new brigade commander Sekihara Roku is under great pressure. Therefore, his first goal after taking office is to change the fifth brigade's reputation as a weak brigade.

    If this battle is won, although it will not immediately reverse the prejudice of the top management and the public against the Fifth Brigade, it will make them no longer despise this unit.

    However, just when Sekihara Roku imagined that the troops would successfully enter the city and wipe out all the Chinese troops in the city, suddenly the adjutant Major Ueno exclaimed: "¤Ï¤¤? What are the Japanese doing?"

    Looking in the direction of Major Ueno's finger, Sekigahara Six and others were surprised to find that a charge horn was blown on the opposing garrison position, and then they saw hundreds of national troops rushing out of the trenches with bayonets drawn and heading towards Japan.  The imperial army launched a counterattack!

    "Nani? Are the Japanese planning to break out of the encirclement head-on?" Chief of Staff Lieutenant Colonel Hirota also looked surprised.

    Sekihara Roku shook his head and said: "Breakthrough? Probably not. Even if the Japanese break through, it is impossible for them to break out from the north gate. After all, the north gate is the focus of the imperial army's attack! If the prediction is not wrong, the Japanese should launch  Charge to the death and plan to perish together with the Imperial Japanese Army!"

    "Perish together?"

    "Well, don't forget that this is Liaocheng, they have such a tradition!" Sekihara Roku said calmly.

    Lieutenant Colonel Hirota looked at Sekihara Roku, and then said: "Are you talking about the general named Fan in Liaocheng?"

    Sekihara Roku nodded and said, "Yo Xi, that's the one!"

    Lieutenant Colonel Hirota then said: "I know a little about the deeds of that Japanese general. His name is Fan Zhuxian. He was the county magistrate of Liaocheng before the 13th year of Showa." When the imperial army attacked Liaocheng, he commanded a force of more than 700 people.  The troops defended Liaocheng and would rather die than retreat. In the end, they were all annihilated in Liaocheng!  "

    Sekihara Roku said solemnly: "Although the combat effectiveness of the Japanese is very poor, their will to resist is still very tenacious. When it is impossible to defend the city and break through, launching a fatal charge is their only choice!  "

    "Sir, what should we do?"

    ¡°Give me the order, charge forward, and annihilate all the enemy troops!¡± Sekihara Roku said coldly.

    "Hai!"

    "In view of the amazing courage shown by this ** army, they are all real warriors. After annihilating them, they will be buried in a military manner. In addition, try not to harass the ** people in Shenxian County, which is a courtesy to the warriors.  Respect!"

    "Hai!"

    However, Sekihara Roku's order had just been issued, and the little Japanese at the front had just strangled themselves with the defenders. Suddenly, an astonishing number of Chinese troops came out from behind the Japanese army.

    There are more than a thousand Chinese troops, and their weapons and equipment are very sophisticated. The dozens of soldiers rushing in front all have light machine guns, and the bursts of firepower are very fierce, hitting the rear of the Japanese army with heavy casualties.

    laterThe soldiers were not ragtag soldiers. Although they were not wearing military uniforms, the guys in their hands were all Type 38 rifles, and the bulging ammunition bags showed that they had sufficient ammunition.

    The troops that suddenly came out and the Chinese troops in the city instantly surrounded the Japanese and puppet troops at the north gate outside the city. On the battlefield, except for the six men from Sekihara who were supervising the battle at the back, the rest of the Japanese troops were locked in a bitter fight.

    The sudden change shocked everyone, so much so that the Japanese army¡¯s temporary command headquarters instantly lost its voice!

    But soon Sekihara Roku came to his senses and shouted loudly: "Baga, where did the ** army come from? They jumped out from there!"

    "Your Excellency, now is not the time to pursue this matter. Please order the troops to withdraw from the battle immediately, otherwise they may be completely wiped out by the Japanese!" Lieutenant Colonel Hirota said hurriedly.

    "Youxi, send a signal flare immediately and order the troops to retreat immediately!"

    However, when the signal flare was launched, the Japanese troops at the front were indeed preparing to retreat, but soon they found that the retreat was blocked and they could not retreat at all.

    More importantly, due to the firing of signal bombs, the location of Sekihara Six and others was discovered by the national army, and a force of more than 200 people immediately came towards them.

    Lieutenant Colonel Hirota knew that the situation was urgent and immediately said: "Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, please evacuate this place immediately, please evacuate immediately!"

    "Baga, how can I leave my troops and escape alone?" Sekihara Roku roared angrily.

    "Your Excellency, the loss of several thousand imperial troops will soon be replenished, but the loss of a major general brigade commander is unbearable for the front army. Please put the overall situation first!" said Hirota Nakasa.

    "Your Excellency, please put the overall situation first!" Adjutant Major Ueno also advised!

    "What about the troops on the front line?"

    Lieutenant Colonel Hirota gritted his teeth and said: "I am willing to stay in command"

    Before Lieutenant Colonel Hirota could finish speaking, Sekihara Roku sighed and said, "What you have left is just an extra spiritual place for the ninth dan, so let's evacuate together!"

    "Hai!"

    Following Sekihara Roku¡¯s order, a group of officers in the Japanese army¡¯s temporary headquarters immediately set the headquarters on fire, then all boarded the prepared cars and fled away from the battlefield.

    Seeing that the Japanese headquarters had escaped, Li Guoyao immediately ordered the cavalry troops to pursue them immediately. On the Chinese battlefield with extremely poor infrastructure, cars may not be able to outrun the cavalry. If the cavalry reacts quickly, they should be able to catch up.  .

    Of course, it doesn¡¯t matter if you can¡¯t catch up. Anyway, the main force of the Japanese fifth brigade has become a turtle in the urn, and it doesn¡¯t matter even if a few fish slip through the net.

    When the Japanese troops at the north gate were surrounded, the situation at the south gate was similar. The remaining hundreds of Japanese puppet troops were surrounded by two thousand national troops outside the city, and a battle of annihilation began.

    After the Japanese and puppet troops were surrounded, the puppet troops collapsed first. Originally, these puppet troops were very dissatisfied with the Japanese army. Now that the Japanese army was surrounded and their destruction was imminent, the puppet troops naturally did not want to be buried with them.

    Soon, the more than 200 remaining puppet troops at the north gate, led by a company commander, laid down their weapons and surrendered. Without the cooperation of the puppet troops, the strength of the Japanese troops at the north gate quickly dropped to less than 500 people, and the national army's encirclement tightened again.  .

    Immediately afterwards, the puppet troops at the south gate also surrendered one after another. The fighting lasted until about ten o'clock in the morning. Except for a small number of Japanese troops at the north and south gates of Shen County who escaped with their lives, all the rest were wiped out.

    The only pity is that after escaping south, the headquarters of the Japanese independent mixed fifth brigade was about to be overtaken by the cavalry troops. They merged with the Yanggu defenders who were going north for reinforcements and luckily escaped with their lives.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
