    The other soldiers behind him immediately rushed out and fought with the Japanese army again.

    The sudden arrival of reinforcements greatly boosted their morale. Everyone used their last strength to fight ferociously with the Japanese army.

    Seeing the sudden appearance of reinforcements, the expression on Takeda Junpei's face suddenly became very ugly.

    He knew in his heart that once the enemy's reinforcements arrived, it would become more difficult for them to capture the Zhaozhuang position.

    ??And judging from the current situation, the enemy has a large number of supporting troops, with nearly a thousand cavalry alone.  As for the infantry troops that followed later, they numbered at least two thousand.

    But Takeda Junpei was unwilling to give in. He pondered for a while and said: "Order the rear troops to continue attacking forward. At the same time, the cavalry troops began to outflank them from both wings. I want to eat all this enemy."

    He said viciously.

    When Wang Wugui heard this, he thought he was crazy. This prince was so angry.

    But at this moment, a Japanese military correspondent ran over from the camp in the rear, carrying a radio on his back.

    He looked extremely panicked and almost fell to the ground several times.

    ¡°People who don¡¯t know, think that Tokyo was captured and the Emperor was captured.

    "Chief of Staff, Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, please have information from Taiyuan." The correspondent said loudly.

    Hearing this, Takeda Junpei immediately said: "Why are you so anxious? What happened? Tell me."

    The communications soldier was barely breathing, so he reported to Takeda Junpei: "Report to the Chief of Staff, His Excellency Neji Okamura has sent an urgent telegram."

    "read!"

    The communications soldier looked at the commanders around him, and then said, "You'd better see for yourself."

    ¡°Obviously, this matter was of great importance, and many officers present did not have the authority to know the contents of this telegram.

    When Takeda Junpei heard this, he suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

    He hurriedly took the telegram over, then opened it and read it carefully.

    The content of the telegram is very simple, only two sentences.

    "Signs of large-scale enemy activity were found around Taiyuan City, with a number of more than 10,000. There is also a tendency to attack Taiyuan City.

    Taiyuan City was weak in defense at this time, so it rushed to reinforce Taiyuan.  "

    Okamura Neji¡¯s telegram only had these two sentences, but no matter which sentence it was, it was enough to stop Takeda Junpei¡¯s offensive at this time.

    "Immediately order the front troops to retreat from the front positions. The other troops will alternately cover the retreat and advance rapidly towards Taiyuan." Takeda Junpei put the telegram together and looked at the Japanese commanders.

    "But Your Excellency, Chief of Staff."

    A very unwilling Japanese officer stepped forward and said.

    The troops attacking in the front at this time were from their brigade, and they saw that their attack had achieved some results.  Although the enemy's reinforcements are coming, it is still possible to capture the enemy's position if they continue to invest troops in the position.

    Now giving up the attack and choosing to retreat, this Japanese officer couldn't figure it out anyway.

    But Takeda Junpei just glared at him and said: "Don't you understand my order? I said retreat immediately! No delay!!"

    "yes!!"

    As the Japanese officer spoke, he immediately ordered: "Forward troops, retreat immediately!"

    The Japanese troops in front of the Zhaozhuang position immediately received the order to retreat and began to retreat toward Taiyuan.

    Although the news that Taiyuan City is threatened by the enemy has not been conveyed yet.

    But those Japanese commanders were not fools. Combined with the reactions of the chief of staff and the retreat orders issued.  They probably guessed it.

    At this time, Taiyuan City must be besieged by the enemy's main force and may be breached by the enemy.

    So in order to ensure the safety of Taiyuan, they had to retreat so urgently.

    As for the Fifth Division and the 21st Division, the two divisions combined may not be as important as Taiyuan at this time.

    Taiyuan is the center of the entire Shanxi, if it is lost here.  The Japanese command system will be paralyzed.

    At the same time, once this place is breached, a large amount of their materials and supplies will also fall into the hands of the enemy.  And their troops in Shanxi will lose a lot of logistical supplies.

    When the Japanese army marched out, Taiyuan FangThe second telegram above was sent.

    "Taiyuan is in a hurry. The enemy troops have begun to attack the fortifications outside Taiyuan City. In just three hours, four strongholds and two warehouses on the outside have been captured by the enemy.

    The number of enemy combatants is probably around 15,000, or even more.  At the same time, the enemy's troops in the southern Shanxi region also began to launch a sudden and fierce attack on them.  "

    Looking at the contents of the telegram, Takeda Junpei's face became more solemn.

    This time, the wolf really came.

    But where did this force that attacked Taiyuan come from?

    Takeda Junpei thought about it and finally thought of Yuanping County.

    "Yuanping County must be the enemy stationed in Yuanping County. I asked why they gave up strategic depth and chose to defend the Zhaozhuang position. It turned out to be so that the main force could detour from the two wings of our army to defend at this time.  The weak Taiyuan City.

    This commander is really bold.  "Takeda Junpei sighed secretly.

    On the Zhaozhuang position, Bai Mingxuan stood on top of the dilapidated artillery tower, looking at the Japanese troops preparing to retreat, and then said to the two Eighth Route Army battalion commanders Gao Changjin and Zhiqiang next to him: "Both of you, you have worked hard. For now, take the troops with you."  Let the troops go to Yuanping County to have a rest.

    ¡°The good wine and meat are ready over there. You guys have a good sleep over there.  I will lead my people and continue to fight against this Japanese army.  "

    After hearing this, the two of them saluted Bai Mingxuan.

    "Thank you, Brigadier Bai!!"

    As the two of them spoke, they began to retreat towards Yuanping County with their troops.

    After the two of them left, Bai Mingxuan looked at the retreating Japanese troops in the distance and said: "Order the troops to immediately start chasing the Japanese troops. You don't have to chase too hard, just one bite is enough to make the little devil drop a few pieces of meat."  "

    "Yes!!" (Remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
