    "I already told you in the telegram that you don't have to bear any responsibility for this matter." Okamura Neiji's tone was gentle.

    ¡°What we need to consider now is how to take the next step.¡±

    Honda Ligen raised his head, looked at Okamura Neji and said: "General, the latest report is that there are more than 3,000 confirmed infected people in our army, and more than 20,000 people have been quarantined.  This will be a huge blow to our army. If the enemy continues to attack, we may not even have soldiers sent to the front line."

    Okamura Neji's eyes fell on the map, pointing at the map and said: "I am not talking about this plague, nor am I talking about how to fight the enemy, but I am thinking about how to minimize the losses."

    "what do you mean¡¤¡¤¡¤"

    "Changji can no longer hold on, and our army may need to consider retreating." Okamura Neiji said bluntly.

    As soon as he heard this, Honda Ligen was stunned for a moment, then looked at Okamura Neji with confusion and said: "General, you did you just say, retreat?"

    "Yes, retreat. Our failure is already doomed." Okamura Neiji said.

    Honda Ligen hurriedly said: "General, please think about it again. I don't think the enemy's current situation is better than ours."

    But Okamura Neji shook his head and said: "The night before yesterday, Zeya and his people were attacked by the enemy. The enemy deliberately threw the corpses of those infected into our camp, and also took the lead in using incendiary bombs.  , to clear the path of their charge, I already knew.

    This group of enemies is very familiar with this kind of biological and chemical warfare, and they have very accurate response strategies.

    ¡°I now suspect that isolation and disinfection work has begun in the enemy¡¯s camp. They have done it even better than us, and there will be very few infected people.  "

    "Then what you mean is that the enemy has fewer infected people than us now, and that they will be able to eliminate the impact of the germs on them in a shorter period of time?" Honda asked.

    Okamura Neji nodded with certainty: "Yes, no matter from which angle you look at it, the enemy is more powerful than us.

    "Honda-kun, please remember that losing to such an enemy is not a very shameful thing.  Because before you and me, from Yoshio Shinozuka to Seishiro Itagaki, too many outstanding Imperial soldiers have been defeated by him.

    Even in the Battle of Nomenhan, there was a figure of Xia Yang.  The power of this person far exceeds our imagination.  "

    "But, are we going to give up our entrance to Shanxi like this? I am very unwilling to do so, General." Honda Ligen said, his eyes already filled with bloodshot eyes.

    He was a little angry, a little confused, and mostly unwilling.

    He always felt that compared to Xia Yang, he might actually have some possibility of victory.  But Okamura Neji, his commander told him, no, you can't do it, you will never be able to defeat this powerful enemy in front of you.

    Okamura Neiji said with relief: "Don't be discouraged, the future is yours, and you will have more opportunities to play against him in the future.

    Maybe one day, you will re-enter Shanxi and regain the land we lost.  "

    With that said, he patted Honda Ligen¡¯s shoulder encouragingly.

    Honda Ritsumetsu is not a very old commander. He is able to achieve his current position. On the one hand, it is because his family is prominent and his ancestor is "Honda Tadakatsu". On the other hand, it is because of his real ability.  Outstanding.

    Among the younger generation of generals, there are only a handful of people who can compare with him.

    He is still only in his forties, and his future still has a long time to come.

    "Thank you, General. Then how should we retreat? Should we retreat eastward to Henan, or to the Hebei area?" Honda Ligen asked.

    Okamura Neiji pointed at the map and said: "If we go straight from Licheng County, we will be able to enter the boundary of Hebei Province. And if we go east, it is the majestic Taihang Mountains. With so many people and materials, I am afraid that  You will be chased and beaten by the enemy's troops who are good at mountain warfare."

    "Okay!" Honda Rigen said, "When will the retreat begin?"

    Okamura Neiji said: "It is already ten minutes at noon, and the enemy troops have not yet started to attack us. This means that they are also troubled by the plague bacteria. If this is the case, then we have at least three days to retreat.

    As long as we?The movement is not too big. If we use the night bit by bit to retreat towards Hebei, it will be difficult for the enemy to detect it.

    ¡°On the last day, our remaining covering troops could board light trucks and retreat directly along the highway to Hebei.  In this way, it is difficult for the enemy's armored forces to pursue the last batch of our retreating troops.  "

    Although this retreat plan is very simple, it can ensure to the greatest extent that their people can get rid of the pursuit of Xia Yang's four armies without being noticed.

    But Xia Yang¡¯s appetite is much greater than they imagined.

    What he wants is not just Changji, he also wants the lives of Okamura Neji and his soldiers.

    But what they didn¡¯t expect was that on their only way to retreat to Hebei, Qiu Guoping¡¯s independent division had already arrived at the outskirts of Licheng County.

    There is a highway from Changzhi to Licheng County, and then from Licheng County to Hebei.  This road was the lifeline of the Japanese army.

    However, due to the excessive defensive pressure on the front line, the Japanese army continued to draw troops from the front line. As a result, the Japanese army in Licheng County has changed from two brigades of more than a thousand people at the beginning to two squadrons with only a few  Hundreds of people.

    "Even if we add the local security team, there are only six to seven hundred people.

    ¡°And they don¡¯t have any heavy weapons. All they have at their disposal are three small-caliber mortars.

    At this time, in the woods not far from Licheng County, the temporary headquarters of the independent division has been set up.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
