Check in from the bright sword

Takashi Tanaka immediately said: "Your Excellency, Commander, don't hesitate any longer!"

"The Eighth Route Army dare not attack Taiyuan, so hurry up and order the 37th Division to turn around and go south!"

"The 386th Brigade captured Changzhi not long ago, and there is still time. The most urgent task is to eliminate the negative impact of the fall of Changzhi City as soon as possible, so as to avoid further deterioration of domestic and international public opinion!"

Takashi Tanaka finally said what he wanted to say in his heart.

Nozawa also said: "General, the heavy weapons hidden by the Eighth Route Army you mentioned do not exist! Facts have proved that the Eighth Route Army really broke up into parts and moved in separately!"

"Even the prisoners of the Imperial Association Army have been released!"

"Hurry up and let the 37th Division go south."

Yoshio Shinozuka nodded silently, all right.

The marching speed of the 37th Division of the Japanese Army is still very fast.

At this time, the 37th Division had even passed Yu County.

In order to buy as much time as possible, Ye Yuichiro even decided to march overnight.

The reason is simple. Taiyuan is the provincial capital of Shanxi, and it is also the headquarters of the First Army. Once Taiyuan is lost, it will have a great impact on the entire Shanxi and even the entire North China war.

No Yuichiro could not afford such a big responsibility.

While advancing, another communication staff officer chased after him.

"Division commander!" The communication staff reported through the car window, "The headquarters has an urgent call! Order our division to turn around and go south immediately, and rush to rescue Changzhi!"

"Nani?!"

"Turn around and head south?!"

Noyuichiro suddenly turned his head.

Hamada Hiroshi also had a look of disbelief.

In the next second, both of them were furious.

What are you doing?At first it went south, then went north, and now it goes south again?

Deliberately use our 37th Division as a reprimand, right?Isn't that fun?

The communication staff officer didn't dare to meet Yuichiro's eyes, and lowered his head to hand over the telegram.

Ye Yuichiro received the telegram with a dark face, looked down, and saw that the telegram was written on the copy paper, and asked their 37th Division to turn around and go south immediately to help Changzhi Mansion.

"Baga!" Ye Yuichiro roared angrily, "What the hell is the headquarters doing?"

"This is a military order, not a child's play! How can such an order be changed day and night! It's too much!"

"Whether the main force of the 386 brigade is in Taiyuan or Changzhi, isn't there an accurate judgment?"

"If it doesn't work, then divide the troops into two groups. Why do we have to run back and forth with the 37th Division?"

However, if you are angry, you will still be angry, and the command of the headquarters will still be carried out, unless he intends to take the next step.

It's just that there is a prerequisite for the next attack, that is, there are greater victories waiting for them ahead.

Just like the Tenth Army in the Battle of Songhu, Yanagawa Hirasuke dared to go down because of the greater victory of capturing Nanjing, and crossed the stop line in disregard of the strict orders of the base camp.

But now, it is obvious that there is no greater victory ahead.

In the current situation, even if their 37th Division wiped out the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army, it would not be enough to offset the negative impact of allowing Changzhi to fall permanently.

The headquarters may not pursue it.

But his personal future is definitely over.

Thinking of this level, Ye Yuichiro sighed.

"Baga Yalu!" Cursing through his teeth, Noyuichiro said again, "Order, all regiments and brigades stop advancing immediately, the rear team will change to the front team, and return the same way!"

Hamada Hiroshi paused: "Hai!"

marching all night,

By six o'clock the next morning, the 37th Division returned to the vicinity of Xiangxian County.

By this time, the 37th Division of the Japanese Army had first traveled 70 kilometers from Xixiang County to Tunliu County, followed by nearly 100 kilometers from Tunliu County to Yu County, and then 80 kilometers from Yu County to Xiang County.

In less than two days, the 37th Division of the Japanese Army has run nearly 250 kilometers!

The communication team that has been guarding near Xiang County immediately sent the news to Changzhi.

At this time, Changzhi Fucheng has become a large-scale moving site.

Both deputy brigade commander Han and regimental commander Cheng knew that the city of Changzhi could not be defended, and they never thought of occupying Changzhi for a long time, so the first thing after taking down Changzhi was to move!

Move away all the materials and equipment that can be used and moved away in Changzhi City!

Leader Cheng even planned to remove the furniture from the headquarters of the Japanese Gendarmerie. The furniture was made of huanghuali wood and could be worth a lot of money. Move it away!

Anyway, coolies are readily available.

The more than 5000 puppet prisoners of war who were carried south just acted as free coolies.

"Commander, Commander" Another correspondent rushed over to report, "The 9th Company found a warehouse with a lot of food in it, at least hundreds of thousands of catties!"

"Move away, move everything away!"

"Not a grain of grain is allowed!"

Captain Cheng waved his hand and said.

Soon another correspondent rushed over to report: "Leader, another traitor has been caught to maintain the president! He secretly called the devil and dared to attack us!"

"Shoot! All traitors are shot!"

"All property will be fined and confiscated!"

"Regimental Commander, Commander," the third correspondent rushed over, panting, "The 2nd communication team sent a telegram, the 37th Division of the Japanese Army has gone south again, and has just arrived in Xiangxian County!"

"What, the 37th Division went south again and returned to Xiang County?"

Captain Cheng was taken aback, then hurried into the temporary headquarters.

Deputy Brigadier Han just woke up, and saw Captain Cheng rushing in, he said, "Cheng Shifa, what's the matter?"
