    "Let's retreat back. The enemy's troops have already advanced to the third line of defense. If they don't retreat, they will occupy our headquarters." A Japanese staff officer hurried in and said.

    Honda Ligen nodded, and then walked out of the dilapidated headquarters.

    He raised his head and looked at the night sky in the distance that was dyed red by the explosion of fire.

    At this time, on both wings of the position, Xia Yang's armored troops were advancing at a furious pace, conducting a large-scale roundabout and outflanking of the thousands of Japanese troops who were still standing on that line of defense.

    It can be predicted that within an hour, the Japanese troops holding on to the third line of defense will all turn into cold corpses amid the front and rear attacks of tens of thousands of people.

    "Retreat to the rear immediately and then respond." Honda Rigen gave the order to retreat with some difficulty.

    After hearing his order, the thousands of Japanese troops in the town immediately took action and began to retreat to the rear.

    They still have certain strategic depth, and they also have positions that they can hold on to in the periphery of Changzhi.

    Honda Ligen just didn't expect why the enemy's troops could launch such an efficient attack.

    He now feels that what he is facing is not a group of flesh and blood humans.  But a war machine without emotion.

    This terrifying war machine operates in an orderly manner according to the instructions given to them by the commander.  On this land, they are advancing crazily. Anyone or anything that attempts to block the advancement of this war machine will be destroyed by them.

    He wanted to find a flaw in this machine, but found that there was no flaw at all.

    This is the first time Honda Rimoto has seen such a highly coordinated force.

    At this time, it was not just Xia Yang who was directing the entire battle.

    After all, his energy is limited and it is impossible to summarize massive amounts of information at the same time.

    His entire staff now became a precision-operated instrument.

    Now such an instrument is divided into four parts, each responsible for attacking the four troops of the Japanese army.

    The staff of each department will mobilize troops to carry out outflanking based on the latest offensive situation and progress. This cycle will continue to devour and disintegrate the Japanese defense front bit by bit.

    From a large perspective, the four lines of defense of the Japanese army have now been defeated.

    From Baichi Town, to Cilin Town, Bayi Town, and Yincheng Town.  The four Japanese defense lines have all collapsed.

    ¡°It¡¯s just that between these four towns, there are still a large number of Japanese military positions.

    But Xia Yang's troops are now ignoring these Japanese positions.  Because his troops are now like a huge fishing net, and these Japanese defense positions between the four towns are all fish caught in the fishing net.

    As long as Xia Yang closes the net, all the Japanese troops trapped in it will be turtles in the urn.

    The furious advance lasted until noon the next day, when it was finally declared over.

    By this time, all the Japanese defensive positions in these four towns had been destroyed.

    They not only occupied the positions, but also enclosed the Japanese troops between the four positions in three narrow areas in accordance with the "pincer offensive" combat plan formulated previously.

    There are more than 10,000 Japanese troops trapped in this, with the strength of two brigades.

    They were trapped because they did not retreat in time.

    Actually, we can¡¯t blame them, because during the battle last night, they were ordered to stick to their positions.  But they didn't know that on their two flanks, the enemy's troops were rushing through their defense lines, and then detoured directly to their sides and rear, directly blocking their retreat route.

    It was not until dawn that they received the order to retreat.

    Because Honda Ligen suddenly realized that if these troops were not withdrawn, the enemy would most likely encircle and suppress them.

    This will make these troops unable to resist the attack of the Fourth Army, which has an absolute advantage in strength and equipment.

    Although his order was issued, the retreat speed of these Japanese troops could not be compared with the Fourth Army's outflanking by relying on tanks, armored vehicles, tanks, trucks and other transportation vehicles.

    They were blocked in these three narrow areas, and were about to face the fate of being surrounded and annihilated.

    ?At this time, on the city wall of Changzhi City, Okamura Neji hurriedly walked towards the top of the city tower with his hands behind his back.

    "The enemy advanced a full thirteen kilometers last night. At the same time, they completed the encirclement of two brigades of our army and blocked them between four towns, making them unable to retreat to Changzhi.

    In addition, our army also suffered heavy casualties in the battle last night.  More than 7,000 people were killed or injured in yesterday's battle.  The establishment of many troops was directly destroyed and had to be replenished before the battle could continue.  "

    A staff officer followed closely behind Okamura Neiji, reporting to him the situation they were facing at this time.

    ??????? Among these news, from beginning to end, none of it is good news.

    The more Okamura Neji listened, the faster he walked, as if this way, these bad news would not reach his ears.

    When he came to the city wall, he frowned, turned around and looked at the staff officer with gloomy eyes and asked: "Is there any more?"

    The staff officer was startled by his eyes, and shuddered subconsciously: "Alsoand, it's a message sent by General Honda Rimoto."

    "read!"

    As Okamura Neji said, he looked outside Changzhi City again.

    Looking at the end of the horizon from here, he seemed to have seen the enemy's advancing troops, forming a black skirmish line at the end of the horizon.  Like a raging tide, it only takes a short time to hit the city wall of Changzhi.  Then he and his troops were all drowned in this foreign land.

    "Our army fought fiercely all night, and all the soldiers fought to the death, and countless of them were broken into pieces for the Emperor's sake. However, the enemy's offensive was like a scourge, unstoppable.

    Especially the enemy's armored troops advance so fast that they even far exceed the cavalry.  Our army can only choose to retreat and continue to hold on to the fortifications outside Changzhi City.

    The general can mobilize more troops to replenish the front line, otherwise our army may not be able to withstand the enemy's next wave of offensive.  "

    The staff officer finished reading the telegram and looked at Neji Okamura.

    In fact, before reading the telegram, Okamura Neiji had already roughly guessed the content of the telegram.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
