Double travel through the Republic of China, start with zero yuan to buy and fight against Japan

What is even more infuriating is those damned colleagues who are dragging their feet and refusing to support him.

He had already requested reinforcements from them a long time ago, but so many days had passed and he hadn't seen even a single person. This was simply too much!

If his defense line here collapsed, the enemy troops in Chahar would be able to march straight in and easily capture the entire Liaoshen area. The consequences would then be disastrous.

However, as if things didn't get worse, at this critical moment, the command center was attacked by an air raid.

Moreover, it was a series of bombings with 500 kilograms of explosives. Although he was in a command post 20 meters underground, he could still feel the ground shaking strongly.

Fortunately, he had foresight and built this underground command post in advance, otherwise he would have been dead by now.

Ten minutes later the bombing formation left, and the B-52 did not find the other two infantry divisions and one heavy artillery division.

They had no choice but to bomb any soldiers they saw near the headquarters.

They were a group of soldiers who came to support the headquarters, but they were destroyed in the bombing.

This battalion was the one that the Kwantung Army withdrew from Jianping. It disappeared without playing any role after the withdrawal.

With the departure of the B-52, ground troops coming from three different directions officially began their march towards Chaoyang County.

The armored battalion and tank battalion of the 3rd Division quickly rushed into the fourth line of defense, while the second and third lines of defense in front were being led by the infantry of the three brigades following closely behind, who were responsible for eliminating the living Japanese and cleaning up the battlefield.

At this time and place, they are less than twenty miles away from the city gate. Once the artillery battalion catches up, they can immediately launch an attack on the county town.

At the same time, the progress in the Lingyuan direction was very smooth. Jianping's Fourth Division and Kalaqin Left Banner's Fifth Division were also advancing rapidly, and arrived ten miles away from Chaoyang County at the same time an hour later.

They marched forward bravely all the way without encountering any obstacles. It can be imagined that the Japanese must have concentrated all their forces in the city.

At this point, the three-sided encirclement has taken shape, but there is no rush to launch an offensive at this moment.

"Report to the commander, up to now, we still haven't found the two Japanese divisions from the country, and we can't even find any trace of the artillery division."

The special forces scouts sent back a telegram reporting the current situation.

Since two days before the war started, the special forces had begun to conduct reconnaissance on the surrounding enemy situation. However, more than two days have passed and nothing has been found.

Several people were looking at the map here, wondering where these Japanese devils had gone.

On the surface, the 10,000 remnants of the Kwantung Army had no combat effectiveness at all.

This is why they are moving forward so quickly.

The commander in front gave an order.

"Make sure the soldiers are well fed and well-drinked, and ready to continue fighting at any time!"

Everyone quickly notified the troops on the front line.

Before finding the enemy, it is better to maintain sufficient physical strength and energy to better deal with the next challenges.

After careful consideration, they decided to adopt a cautious strategy, first encircling the enemy but not advancing rashly.

Because they knew that the enemy also had a complete heavy artillery division, and if they advanced rashly, they would most likely be ambushed by the enemy.

So, they have to find the exact location of the enemy before they can launch an effective attack.

"Order the special forces to continue searching for targets! At the same time, notify the commander-in-chief and request technical support to find these three hidden enemy forces!"

The front command issued new instructions.

They have received accurate intelligence that there is currently no Kwantung Army coming to support them from anywhere, so the encirclement will not have much impact on them.

However, the front-line troops were unable to find any trace of the enemy, which made Zhao Yun curious.

What kind of mystery did Lieutenant General Ji Gu set up? He thought to himself.

At this time, Chief of Staff Wang proposed.

"Why not send the B-52s out to search for it and then come back."

Zhao Yun nodded in agreement.

The B-52 has advanced infrared detection capabilities and may be able to detect those hard-to-see targets.

So Zhao Yun immediately gave an order to notify the Air Force and convey the order to the B-52 formation to carry out this mission.

He believed that with the capabilities of the B-52, they would be able to successfully complete the mission.

Half an hour after the underground command post was bombed, Ji Gu slowly walked out from underground.

When he witnessed with his own eyes that the entire five-story building had completely disappeared, his heart was filled with despair and grief.

Because in this once busy and important command center, many of his subordinates are probably dead beyond death.

"General, what should we do now? Should we retreat or continue to hold on?"

The Chief of Staff asked cautiously.

Obviously, he had begun to waver and suggested evacuating.

After all, faced with such a tragic situation, continuing to fight would only seem to bring more casualties and failure.

Ji Gu sighed helplessly.

"I want to leave too, but will those people let us go so easily?"

He pointed in the direction of the Kwantung Army headquarters in the distance, not the direction of the Chahar garrison's attack.

There was a hint of bitterness on his face. Our own people are often more terrifying than our enemies.

Then he complained again.

"If I still had 100,000 soldiers at my disposal, why would I be hiding underground like this?"

"However, the two divisions sent from the country must not be easily harmed. They are responsible for stabilizing the war situation and preventing a total collapse. Unfortunately, our colleagues failed to understand the deep meaning of this."

Ji Gu's tone was full of anxiety and helplessness.

Immediately afterwards, he quickly ordered his men to send an urgent telegram to the Kwantung Army Headquarters.

"Chaoyang County is expected to fall within three days, so please be sure to prepare countermeasures in advance. At the same time, the defense lines of Huludao and Jinzhou must be strengthened to ensure that nothing goes wrong."

Finally, Ji Gu did not forget to inform the domestic headquarters of his current critical situation, and strongly urged them to stop delaying and quickly formulate an effective strategic plan to resist the attack of Zhao Yun's Chahar garrison.

Otherwise, the land that their ancestors had won with untold hardships would most likely be lost in the hands of their generation.

The telegram was sent quickly, and the commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army, who received the telegram, was convening a meeting.

"Tell me, what do you think?"

The boss looked at everyone seriously and said.

Everyone below was silent, but there was a hint of helplessness in their eyes.

"We have to fight even if we don't want to! After all, that guy has gathered a full 800,000 troops. It's obvious that he is coming for us. His purpose is to drive us away."

Someone muttered quietly.

"Everyone, are you willing to just do this?"

The boss raised his voice, his eyes scanning everyone.

"You're leaving like this. We are soldiers of the empire! Where has your courage gone?"

The boss had no choice but to get angry. In recent days, almost no divisions came to support.

They were all waiting for the honest man Ji Gu to be cheated to death so that they could reap the benefits.

The boss knew clearly that if he didn't step in to stop it, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Since no one is willing to provide support, then how should we deal with the defense lines of Huludao and Jinzhou? You can't have no plan at all, right?"

The boss continued to ask.
