    This attack started at 8pm on September 6th and lasted for ten hours until 6am the next day.

    Although the time is not very long, the results achieved are not small!

    In just ten hours, the national army overthrew 14 large Japanese strongholds, captured two county towns, killed 1,129 Japanese soldiers, and captured 27 people.  More than 1,200 puppet troops were killed and wounded, more than 600 were captured, and more than 3,000 casualties were caused to the Japanese and puppet troops.

    In addition, the troops also blew up 23 bridges, removed more than 70 kilometers of railway tracks, cut more than 100 kilometers of electric wires, more than 100 kilometers of telephone lines, and damaged countless roads.

    Of course, there were many seizures in the battle, but because the time was too short, statistics have not yet been compiled, and all the weapons and equipment seized have been transferred to the Eighth Route Army, so there are no specific figures.

    When the commander-in-chief Lu Zhan reported the results of the battle the next morning, Li Guoyao smiled, but he did not dare to neglect and immediately ordered the troops to continue attacking Zhao County.

    Of course, this is just a show, it doesn¡¯t really mean that Lu Zhanwu¡¯s troops will fight to the death with the Japanese army!

    But even so, when a large number of "national troops" appeared in Zhao County, they still scared the Japanese and puppet troops in Zhao County!

    They were all witnesses to the battle last night. The firepower of the Chinese army was too strong. The defenders in the city were no match at all. They were suppressed and beaten by the opponent from the beginning.

    If the reinforcements from Yuanshi and Luancheng hadn't arrived quickly, Zhao County might have been captured last night!

    Although Zhao County¡¯s garrison has been strengthened unprecedentedly after receiving reinforcements from two counties, the total number is less than 1,500, which can barely be regarded as a reinforced brigade.

    However, according to reports from the aviation force, there are at least tens of thousands of Chinese troops outside the city, and there are at least tens of thousands of Chinese troops in Ningjin, Xinhe and other places behind. The two sides are not opponents at the same level at all.  How to fight this battle?

    If it were an ordinary army, the Japanese army would not be too worried. An ordinary national army would need at least 15,000 to 20,000 people to capture a county where a brigade is stationed.

    But the troops outside are not ordinary national troops, they are that terrible branch/the troops under General Li Guoyao, a force dedicated to annihilating the failed Imperial Japanese Army.

    Not to mention a small county town where more than a thousand troops are stationed, even big cities like Xuzhou, Zaozhuang, and Heze are useless. As long as they are targeted, there is almost no way to escape.

    In desperation, the Japanese garrison captain in Zhao County could only constantly ask for help from the 110th Division stationed at Shimen, requesting that reinforcements be dispatched to them as soon as possible.

    After receiving the telegram from the Zhaoxian garrison asking for help, Lieutenant General Sangmu Chongming did not take immediate action, but first reported the situation to Peiping!

    This time, Sangmu Chongming learned astutely. Judging from the battle last night, the strength of the Chinese army was obviously stronger than they expected.

    After all, they had made a lot of preparations before this, including ordering the troops on the front line to strengthen their vigilance, and even removed most of the small strongholds, and concentrated the troops inside into large and medium-sized strongholds, even county towns.

    But even so, in just ten hours after the battle started, the Chinese army captured two county towns and destroyed more than a dozen imperial strongholds, causing huge losses to more than 3,000 imperial troops and imperial alliance troops.

    Out of consideration for the possible fierce battle that will follow, Takaaki Kuwaki must let Commander Shun Tada know the situation and have him come forward to order a counterattack, so that even if something happens, he will not be blamed.

    I have to say that this old devil Sangmu Chongming is really thoughtful, what an old man is called slipping away!

    It is said that after Tada Shun received the report from the front line, he was immediately furious. First, he slapped the table and cursed Sangmu Chongming for his incompetence. The national curse of "Bagya Road" has not stopped.

    No wonder Jun Tada was so angry. He had already informed the 110th Division of the news that Li Guoyao's troops might attack several counties near Shimen a day ago. He also asked them to step up their guard and authorized them to abandon everything outside the city if necessary.  stronghold.

    But the troops on the front line obviously didn¡¯t do this. In one night, Li Guoyao, a bastard, destroyed two county towns and ate more than 3,000 people. This was obviously the responsibility of that idiot Sangmu Chongming.

    ????????????????????? More importantly, it¡¯s now that time and that idiot doesn¡¯t want to think about how to make amends. Instead, he keeps asking him, the commander of the front army, for instructions. Isn¡¯t this an act of shirking the blame?

    You must know that usually only the lower-level troops take the blame for the higher-level departments, and there are bosses who take the blame for their subordinates. Even if he has a backer, he will not do this, too?You take people seriously!

    But Tada Shun also knew that now was not the time to get angry with Kuangmu Takaaki, and the higher-ups had already thought of replacing this smooth guy, so Tada Jun immediately called the 110th Division and asked Kuangmu Takaaki to immediately start a counterattack.

    At the same time, Tada Shun was also secretly thinking that if this battle was fought successfully, then bygones would be forgotten.

    Once the 110th Division is defeated, he will definitely suggest that the base camp remove Sangmu Chongming!

    "But Li Guoyao was so easy to fool. After receiving the news that Japanese reinforcements had set off from Shimen, he immediately sent a telegram to Lu Zhanwu, ordering Lu Zhanwu's troops to fight and retreat, attracting the main force of the Japanese army to withdraw to the Nangong area.

    At three o'clock in the afternoon on the 7th, Major General Miki Yasuichi, commander of the Japanese 108th Brigade stationed in Shimen, arrived in Zhao County with more than 8,000 main troops and the cooperation of more than 3,000 puppet troops, and then launched a counterattack against the Chinese troops outside the city.

    The two sides fought bloody battles for four hours, with no one able to do anything about the other. As night fell, the two sides then made a temporary truce.

    After several hours of fighting, General Miki Yasuichi reported the performance of the Chinese troops on the front line to the division headquarters, confirming that the national army in front of him was indeed Li Guoyao's command, and there was no problem with this.

    Subsequently, Miki Koichi decided that his troops would attack the national army camp outside the city overnight to relieve the crisis in Zhao County as soon as possible!

    "However, when the Japanese army suddenly arrived at the National Army camp at around two o'clock in the morning, they found that the entire National Army camp was empty, and all the people and horses had disappeared.

    After receiving the report, Miki Koichi was immediately shocked to realize that he had been fooled, and immediately ordered his troops to pursue him all night long!

    However, what they did not expect was that although the main force of the Chinese army had retreated, it left a large number of capable squads along the way to block the Japanese army.

    These teams, organized into companies and platoons, used the ruined roads and crop fields on both sides of the roads to carry out guerrilla warfare with the cooperation of militiamen who were familiar with the terrain, and used all available resources to slow down the Japanese army's actions.

    Of course, delaying is not the purpose, killing and injuring the effective strength of the Japanese army and angering the opponent is their purpose!

    ¡°Both Li Guoyao and Lu Zhanwu, who was commanding the battle on the front line, believed in one sentence: if you want to destroy the little devil, you must first make him crazy!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
