Hearing this, Kenji Doihara was also stunned, and then said coldly: "What? The tank was destroyed? Where is Major Masao Ono?"
Because the battle had just ended, Kenji Doihara didn¡¯t know yet that the tank squadron he assigned to the 59th Regiment had been completely wiped out. Masao Ono, the squadron leader, was also killed in the tank.
Tokimori Takuno said: "Major Ono Masaohe has already died for his country!"
Hearing this, the atmosphere in the entire command room suddenly became solemn.
Everyone looked at each other, knowing that the enemy they faced now was completely different from the soft-footed shrimp they encountered two days ago.
When Kenji Doihara heard that Masao Ono was killed in battle, he obviously didn't accept it for a while.
He stared hard at the topographic map of Baoding City, and the place he was staring at was Mancheng on the west side of Baoding City.
"Can a small city full of defenders, with a total of more than a thousand defenders, still be a stumbling block to the advancement of our imperial army?" Doihara stared at Banishi Ichiroshi and asked.
Kazuo Banishi stood at attention and said: "Report to the Commander-in-Chief, absolutely not!"
Doihara said coldly: "Then kick it away!"
"Hai!" Ichir¨ Banishi's loud reply echoed in the command room.
Doihara said: "I order all the artillery support firepower of the 20th Division and the 15th Division to bomb the whole city. Don't be stingy with artillery shells, I will use the artillery firepower to turn the whole city into a A scorched earth.¡±
Hearing what Kenji Doihara said, Banishi felt excited in his conscience. With sufficient artillery support, his chances of winning the city will be greatly improved.
"At the same time, telegraph the aviation force to dispatch bombers and fighter groups to cooperate with Mancheng's offensive operations." When Doihara Kenji said this, he paused again, and seemed to feel that the troops in Mancheng were not very sufficient.
So he raised his voice and said: "The Seventh Wing and the Fifth Wing, cooperate with the 59th Wing to attack. I ask you to capture Mancheng within three days."
At this time, the three captains stepped forward and responded loudly: "Hai!!"
Three regiments of the Japanese army. The total strength of the troops is nearly 15,000. This terrifying number was more than ten times that of the soldiers of the Fourth Regiment.
At this time, Xia Yang's troops stationed in the city only totaled more than a thousand people.
Banxi thought to himself, even if I use my life to fill it, I can level all your city walls.
In the evening, Xia Yang stood on the city wall and observed the situation of Banxi Yiliang's camp with a high-power telescope.
The Japanese troops over there have been there for half a day without any movement.
In fact, it is not just the 59th Regiment of Ichiro Banishi that is like this. According to the news that Xia Yang received from the military headquarters, there is no movement in other directions of the Japs.
But Xia Yang knew very well that this was the calm before the storm.
Soon, this peace will be broken. Then there will be even more violent storms.
He Changxing, who was also observing from the side, suddenly pointed in one direction and said: "Tuanzuo, look in the direction of the east city gate, there seems to be movement there."
Xia Yang heard this and immediately looked towards the east gate with the high-powered telescope in his hand.
Sure enough, outside the east city gate, at the end of the horizon, Xia Yang could already observe the vast smoke and dust with a telescope.
When the smoke and dust slowly dissipated, a group of Japanese troops arranged neatly like locusts appeared at the end of the horizon.
There were so many of them that they almost occupied Xia Yang¡¯s telescope lens. Seeing this scene, Xia Yang's face became more and more solemn. In any case, the little devil finally focused his attack on the two wings of Baoding City.
"My dear, there are so many little devils, one person can drown us all just by spitting!" Hao Shiwen next to him couldn't help but sigh.
Xia Yang said: "Yes! At least two regiments of troops! This time the little devil really spent a lot of money to conquer the whole city."
Hao Shiwen said: "It's better to ask the military for help. We may not be able to stop it."
??
After saying that, he loudly said: "Immediately send a report to the military headquarters, saying that we have a large group of Japanese troops on the east side of the city, numbering about 10,000. The Japanese army is attackingThe focus will most likely be on Mancheng, asking the army commander to transfer a regiment to us No! At least two regiments of reinforcements! Otherwise, let alone half a month, I may not be able to sustain it even for three days. "
After hearing this, Hao Shiwen immediately said loudly: "Yes, leader, I will report right away."
Because of wartime needs, the radio station of the Fourth Regiment was in the air-raid shelter under the city wall, so Hao Shiwen soon sent the telegram to the military headquarters.
At this time, the military headquarters was already very busy. Almost no matter which line of defense it was, they were requesting reinforcements from the military headquarters. Since the Japanese night attack last night, they have been clamoring that their own headquarters has suffered heavy losses and they want the military to allocate troops to reinforce them.
Even the troops responsible for the rear defense line were shouting that their defense line had been attacked by a small group of Japanese troops, and asked the military headquarters to quickly dispatch troops to them.
Chen Cunpu couldn't help but complain: "The few lost little Japs who appeared on the rear supply line can be considered a small force?"
Commander Feng said: "Don't talk about it. Some positions that have never been attacked by the Japanese army are still shouting for reinforcements. At this time, the Japanese army is approaching the city, and everyone is worried about the safety of their own defense lines. They naturally hope that they On the defensive line, we can have more defensive troops."
Chen Cunpu said: "But from last night to now, only one unit has not asked for help."
Commander Feng immediately said: "It's the Fourth Regiment. They have indeed never asked the military for assistance. Although I am ready to let the people of the Second Regiment and the Third Regiment be involved in the defense of the city at any time."
While the two were talking, a telegram was delivered to Chen Cunpu.
Chen Cunpu read it carefully, and then asked Commander Feng: "Military seat, are there any signs of the little devil on the opposite side being moved?"
Hearing Chen Cunpu¡¯s question, Commander Feng realized that there was a problem, so he hurriedly asked: "What's wrong? Is there any new movement of the Japanese army?"
Chen Cunpu handed over the telegram sent by the Fourth Regiment Headquarters and said: "This is the telegram sent by the Fourth Regiment just now. It says that a large number of Japanese troops, at least two regiments, appeared on the east side of Mancheng where they are stationed."
Commander Feng often needs to verify the information reported by other troops. But when Xia Yang's Fourth Regiment reported it, he would seriously consider it. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
