    Okamura Neji nodded solemnly and said, "I know everything."

    "What should we do? Should we continue to attack Licheng County, or should we enter the mountains on both sides and retreat in a scattered manner." asked the Japanese staff officer.

    In fact, everyone in the headquarters knows that although the city wall in Licheng County is not too high, the enemy's troops entrenched inside are at least 5,000.

    ????????????? And they have city walls to block them, it¡¯s not like they¡¯re in a flat area outside.  With the convenience of terrain, they will definitely be more difficult to deal with.

    What's more, the enemy's current artillery unit has already covered them.

    These enemies are equivalent to having strong artillery fire cover. If they want to attack again, they will not only face bullets flying from the front, but also those shells flying from behind.

    Because of the existence of these factors, these Japanese military staff were somewhat less confident in continuing to attack Licheng County.

    ¡°They won¡¯t be able to capture Licheng County for at least two days.

    And according to the advancing speed of the enemy armored forces in the rear, two days would be enough for the troops of the Fourth Army to penetrate their formation, then divide and surround them, and wipe them out.

    Okamura Neji took out his telescope and looked at the city wall of Licheng County in the distance.

    At this time, a shell exploded not far away, and the smoke almost covered his vision.

    When the gunpowder smoke gradually dissipated, he could clearly see the Licheng County city wall in the distance again.

    At this time, the independent division had already stacked thick sandbags on the city wall and arranged a large number of machine gun positions.  At the same time, they set up a defensive position at the city gate.

    Even if the Japanese army breached the city gate, they could rely on the ring fortifications behind the city gate to shoot and kill all Japanese soldiers who tried to rush in from the city gate.

    All these fortifications seemed to tell Okamura Neiji that it was wishful thinking to break through their defenses in a short time.

    "Order the troops to start plan No. 2 and act according to the previously scheduled plan. Disperse from the mountains and forests on both sides and retreat toward the north of the river." Okamura Neiji finally stopped struggling and gave the order to disperse and break out.

    The Japanese staff officers and commanders all breathed a sigh of relief when they heard what Okamura Neiji said.

    Because of this decision, they can get a chance to survive.

    After many days of fighting, these Japanese commanders already knew it very well.  It was almost impossible for them to capture Licheng County in a short time.

    But unable to capture Licheng County, the enemies behind them would not stop their attacks.

    Those crazy enemy armored units will tear their defense lines into pieces in a very short time.  Especially now, rumors are spreading in many troops and people are panicking.

    "If we don't make a decisive decision again, we will issue an order to disperse and break out."  Even if Okamura Neiji wants his soldiers to attack Licheng County, it is almost impossible.

    These panicked soldiers may even break up on their own without any orders.

    "General, we will pass on the order immediately." The Japanese staff officer said and walked outside the headquarters.

    Okamura Neiji looked around at the commanders in the headquarters and said in a low voice: "You go down too."

    After saying this, his eyes fell on the wall of Licheng County in the distance again.

    The other Japanese commanders in the headquarters immediately returned to their respective units.  The order to disperse and break out was given.

    After all the commanders left, Okamura Neji seemed to have been drained of all his strength and slumped down on the chair behind him.  A pair of eyes were closed tightly, making people think that he died here.

    At this time, there was no one in the headquarters. No one saw their general. He was emotionally shattered by the dragnet that Xia Yang had laid for him.

    After a long while, Okamura Neji moved his arm with some difficulty.

    He firmly held the armrests of the chair to support his body and stood up. Then he took a few deep breaths and finally managed to stand still.

    At noon, in the mountains flanking the Japanese army, two mountain regiments led by Lao Ba were sneaking through the mountains.  The order they received was to support the defenders in Licheng County before this evening.

    The eighth child¡¯s name is Li Laoba. The name is very simple because he is the eighth eldest child in the family.

     It's just that in the years of war, his brothers and sisters have all died in this protracted war.

    And when he joined the army in his early years, he should have been the most likely to die, but he survived.  And because he followed the right person, Li Laoba has even reached the position of brigade commander.

    Now he is smoking a dry pipe while marching with his soldiers in front of the majestic mountains.

    His dark face was full of fortitude, and his eyes were honed in the long battle with the Japanese army and were full of murderous intent.

    But all the soldiers under him knew that Li Laoba just looked fierce in appearance and evil in his eyes.  But he is actually a good commander who cares about his soldiers.

    His ferocity, even cruelty, is only directed at those enemies.

    "Brigadier, there's a telegram from the military." A communications soldier carrying a radio on his back hurried over and said.

    Hearing this, Li Laoba frowned and said: "It's not that we want to cancel the support plan! Our mountain brigade has been following the main force for so long, but we haven't started to eat meat yet."

    As he spoke, he put away the cigarette in his hand and took the telegram.

    After reading the content in the newspaper, Li Laoba's originally somewhat solemn expression suddenly became relaxed.

    "The Japanese troops have begun to disperse towards the mountains on both sides to break out. Some of them are likely to encounter your troops in the mountains of the Taihang Mountains. I hope your troops will set up ambushes along the way and try to block the Japanese troops breaking out."

    Seeing the contents of the telegram, Li Laoba laughed loudly and said: "Okay, good time, I'm going to Licheng County again." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
