This shows that Honda Ligen¡¯s attack did not go smoothly, and it can even be said to have failed.
If this is the case, then they can only wish for themselves.
Akechi Xia Hui gathered all his commanders, large and small, in the temporary headquarters.
At this time, the sound of artillery was still rumbling outside, and the people of the howitzer regiment had even begun to use them to train new recruits.
Some artillery novices who had just been trained for a short time also began to practice with these Japanese soldiers.
Akechi Xiahui looked at the shells falling from time to time outside and then exploding on the plain, then turned to look at the commanders who had gathered.
This time, the commanders summoned, even the squadron leader, were called over.
Because he has made up his mind to change this passive defense of chronic death.
"I think everyone has seen the current situation. The rescue from General Honda Rimoto obviously cannot arrive at the scheduled time.
We can only rely on ourselves. The enemy's offensive is fierce, and it can be seen that they are eager to annihilate us in this area. If nothing else, they're not even planning on letting us see the sun tomorrow. "After Mingzhi Xia Hui said this, he looked at the brigade staff officer next to him.
"What are the casualties of our army?" Mingzhi Xia Hui asked.
After hearing this, the Japanese staff officer immediately said: "According to the latest reported data, the casualties of each regiment are similar, basically more than one-third.
" If our army continues to attack like this afternoon, there is no doubt that before night comes, our army's casualties will reach two-thirds. By then, the entire army's organization may no longer exist. "
At this time, there are still about three hours before dark. Based on the intensity of the attack over the previous three hours, the number of casualties mentioned by this staff officer was not an exaggeration.
After Mingzhi Xiahui listened, he nodded and said: "Okay, I understand."
After saying that, he looked at the commanders, large and small, and said: "Now, I believe that you who are fighting at the front should have a better understanding of the crisis situation our army is facing than I do.
The enemy¡¯s attack was fierce and the firepower was fierce. This was the first time I had seen it in all my years in the army. "
As if to verify his words, outside, more than two hundred meters away from the headquarters, a large-caliber howitzer shell exploded, and the strong wind even blew into the headquarters.
"Therefore, our army must make corresponding adjustments strategically." Mingzhi Xia Hui said in a heavy tone.
"Brigade commander, tell me, we will always follow you." A Japanese commander shouted.
Other Japanese commanders also responded and expressed their willingness to obey all arrangements of Akechi Xia Hui.
Akechi Xia Hui nodded, then looked at the map and said: "Our army has been unable to break through before because we have always had illusions. We thought that we could tear out the enemy's encirclement through large-scale charges and fierce attacks. An opening. This allowed the main force to break out.
But after an afternoon of fighting, we must recognize the fact that it is almost impossible for all the main forces to break out. "
"What do you mean, brigade commander"
¡°Spread out and break through, just like what the Fifth Division did. Although their entire army was almost wiped out, thousands of people still broke through the encirclement.
We must give up the previous idea of ????breaking out together. The enemy will not let us break out smoothly.
Dispersing and breaking out may be the only way we can take. I don¡¯t want you all to die here, let alone become prisoners of your subordinates. "Akechi Xia Hui said.
"If we want to disperse and break through, the Watanabe brigade commander's side" A Japanese staff officer said worriedly.
"After our army started its breakout operation, it sent a telegram to the commander of the Watanabe Brigade to inform him of our actions. If we had informed him in advance, the enemy would have intercepted and deciphered our telegram and deployed defenses in advance. Then our army would have had no chance at all. No more." Mingzhi Xia Hui said.
The other Japanese officers heard this, and now they can only do this.
I saw whether the Watanabe brigade commander could form a tacit understanding and realized that the possibility of a frontal breakthrough was very low. Only by spreading out the breakthrough can some of the troops be preserved.
"That's the only way. Otherwise, we might have to be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor here." The Japanese soldier said?Mou said earnestly.
"There is no problem now!" Mingzhi Xia Hui looked up at the crowd and said.
"No more." The Japanese commanders said in unison.
"Now immediately start arranging the specific tasks of each unit and the direction of the breakout." Akechi Xia Hui looked at the Japanese troops and said.
At this time, the shells outside were still exploding.
Coincidentally, on the other side, the Watanabe Brigade, which was also besieged by the four armies, also began to discuss a plan to disperse and break out.
They don¡¯t want to be completely wiped out, so they can only choose this combat plan.
As for Honda Ligen's rescue and response to them, judging from the situation in the afternoon, it was obviously impossible to count on them.
Watanabe is not a fool. He knows that it is difficult to rely on anyone now and he can only rely on himself.
Xia Yang listened to the battle report from He Changxing and nodded with great satisfaction: "After all, he is from Huangpu. He is very good at fighting the Japanese army in such a strict positional battle."
"Speaking of which, let me lead someone to fight. Maybe I can fight better than Lao He." Wei Xing said next to him.
Xia Yang smiled and said: "You can do it. There are still many battles ahead. It's your turn."
Wei Xing said with a somewhat sarcastic smile: "Military Commander, what you said is that I saw Lao He and the others fighting lively on the front line, and I felt itchy in my heart?" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
