Age of Conquest Reborn

The Ximan War Zone is located in the southern part of the Nuruerhu Mountains. The troops in the pocket conscientiously carried out the orders of the theater command. Although the troops were quite tired after a full day of fierce fighting, the frontline commander and deputy chief of staff of the war zone Han Guangqi issued an order.

Everyone began to move, all in order to prevent the artillery attack of the Kwantung Army that broke out. Of course, the several brigade commanders who had fought with more than 100,000 Kwantung Army all day, most of them disdained the caution of the headquarters, but there was no

Perfunctory.

Wang Qingshan's brigade also began to take action. When Han Guangqi left, he once again warned Wang Qingshan, "Commander Wang, the Qinglonggou line guarded by the first brigade is the focus of the Kwantung Army's breakout and is under the greatest pressure. I believe that Brigadier Wang and the first brigade

The soldiers have a brave fighting spirit, but don’t hold on. Once you feel that the pressure exceeds the ability of the troops, you must report it to me. No matter what the battlefield situation is, I will allocate troops to support the first brigade!”

"Hahaha!" Wang Qingshan laughed heartily, "Chief of Staff, I, Wang Qingshan, like to fight tough battles, but I am not an inexperienced person. The first brigade will try not to trouble the frontline headquarters. The four main regiments will guard the

Qinglonggou is enough for the little devil to chew on for seven or eight days, but he will not hold on and make fun of the lives of the soldiers for the sake of my personal face, Wang Qingshan!"

In the cave where the Third Army Headquarters of the Western Manchuria Kwantung Army is located in the encirclement of Nuruerhu Mountain Area, the commanders of the other four armies rushed over within a short time. They were constantly oppressed by the independent division troops on the outside.

, the farthest place in the encirclement circle, the Fifth Army, is only an hour away.

The five army commanders who had decided to save the lives of more than 400,000 Kwantung Army soldiers in the encirclement circle gathered together again. Everyone had a worried and helpless look on their faces. This emotion permeated the cave.

Lieutenant General Tosa, the temporary commander of the Western Manchuria Theater and commander of the Third Army, looked at the four colleagues who were silent and smoking fiercely on his cigarette, making the already damp and stuffy cave even more depressed. The pale faces of his four colleagues,

A bitter smile appeared.

They are all senior generals of the Imperial Japanese Army. They are well aware of the current situation on the battlefield. They are even more helpless. "Gentlemen, everyone knows the current battle situation. Whether it is to break through or to hold on, it is impossible."

Change the outcome. I have called you all together today just to understand the situation of the troops!" He said calmly.

The other four army commanders all raised their heads in surprise and looked at Lieutenant General Tosa. They were baffled by what he just said. Why did they have to gather everyone together for a meeting? They knew what the situation was without asking.

The troops of the Ten Thousand Independent Division are surrounded in the mountainous area and cannot move, defend or fight. This is the actual situation faced by all troops!

Among them, Lieutenant General Takakura Yuuo, the commander of the Fifth Army who served as the rearguard, said dullly but politely: "Tosa-kun, everyone is very clear about the situation faced by the Kwantung Army troops in the Western Manchuria area. It can be said that

In a desperate situation, you are the supreme commander appointed by the headquarters. If you have any questions, Tosa-kun will say it clearly. There is no need to beat around the bush!"

The Fifth Army is also one of the most elite units in the Kwantung Army's combat sequence. Its commander, Lieutenant General Takakura Yuuo, has no worse qualifications, military exploits, and commanding abilities than Lieutenant General Tosa, so he naturally becomes the commander of the other three armies.

Spokespersons don’t have so much caution and taboos when speaking.

However, how could the current Lieutenant General Tosa care about Lieutenant General Takakura's attitude? He said directly: "Gentlemen, what I want to ask is, when your troops break out from the original encirclement, will they

Are you still carrying heavy equipment?”

The four commanders of the Kwantung Army were all stunned. Lieutenant General Takakura spoke, "Tosa-kun, you know this best. With the order of Commander-in-Chief Nanjiro of the headquarters, the troops broke out and entered the seventh

After Laotu Mountain and Nuruerhu Mountain Area, immediately abandon all heavy equipment so as not to affect the marching speed of the troops. This order was announced by you personally at the last meeting. Did Tosa-kun forget it?"

"Takakura-kun, and all of you, answer me! I am asking the question as the supreme commander of the Western Manchurian Kwantung Army!" Lieutenant General Tosa's face darkened and he said stiffly, although he did not want to talk to these four people who were always unconvinced with him.

The military commander was at loggerheads, and it was not the time for a quarrel, but Lieutenant General Gao Cang's unkind words still made him feel extremely unhappy, and his attitude became tougher.

Lieutenant General Tosa took out his identity hat and had no choice but to answer. Lieutenant General Takakura gritted his teeth and said viciously: "Supreme Commander, our Fifth Army faithfully carried out the orders of the headquarters. After entering the mountainous area,

, abandoned all heavy equipment, and each division only carried mortars, Type 92 infantry guns and other light artillery!"

The answers from the commanders of the other three armies were similar to Lieutenant General Takakura's. Lieutenant General Tosa sighed and immediately changed the topic, "Gentlemen, I have understood the situation of each army. What I want to say next is

One more thing – breakout!”

"Breakthrough?" Everyone, including Lieutenant General Takakura, was stunned. All the armies suffered heavy losses today. Aren't they all trying to break through, but they failed. This guy Tosa once again emphasized the breakthrough. What else can he do?

?

"Yes, breakout. I know that you all have doubts. You might as well tell everyone that our Third Army has made preparations for a breakout. The direction chosen is the Qinglonggou line in the south of the Nuruerhu Mountains. This is the main route.

The most direct and open channel to the western Liaoning region

, As long as this channel is opened, our more than 400,000 Kwantung Army troops in Western Manchuria can quickly cross the current mountainous area in less than a day and escape from the encirclement of the independent division troops!" Lieutenant General Tosa swept away the decadent

Emotionally, he said with burning eyes.

Regarding Lieutenant General Tosa's whimsical words, several army commanders showed disdain and fought for a whole day. Not only the direction of Qinglonggou, but also all the passages were firmly controlled by the independent division's blocking troops.

After the Fifth Army came up, it used the strength of two divisions, but achieved nothing.

Lieutenant General Takakura said unceremoniously: "Commander Tosa, I remind you not to forget that we have been making efforts to break out, but you also know the results. We have made no achievements and lost our heavily equipped troops. We can only

To use the flesh and blood of soldiers to attack the solid blocking positions of the Independent Division troops, and to withstand overwhelming artillery fire, and to break through with bombs raining down from the independent division aviation bombers? It is nothing more than another failed attempt!"

"Huh huh huh!" Lieutenant General Tosa suddenly sneered, "Your troops have discarded heavy artillery and other heavy equipment, but that does not mean that my Third Army will do the same. Let me tell you, all of our Third Army's

None of the heavy equipment was discarded! Even though the Third Army was the vanguard to open the way!"

"Ah!" Several army commanders were very surprised and shocked, and then they became angry, "We have been fighting for a whole day. Your Tosa troops also have heavy artillery. Why didn't you use them? Seeing nearly 100,000 Kwantung Army soldiers

, fell under the gunpoint of the soldiers of the Independent Division, what was your intention?"

Looking at Dao Dao's angry eyes, Lieutenant General Tosa still sneered and said: "Gentlemen, do you not understand this? Tactics, very cruel tactics, using the lives of imperial soldiers to paralyze the enemy's tactics, my purpose is to let

The commander of the independent division that blocked the Kwantung Army believed that we did not have heavy equipment!"

They are all experienced veterans. Everyone understood what Lieutenant General Tosa said and showed admiration in their eyes. Lieutenant General Takakura even lowered his head. From this point of view, he is indeed not as smart as this guy Tosa.

Seeing that he had conquered these powerful generals with just a few words, Lieutenant General Tosa was also quite proud. However, the cruel reality in front of him soon dispelled some of his pride, "Gentlemen, before convening the meeting, I have ordered the second

Two field artillery brigades belonging to the three armies secretly gathered in the Qinglonggou area, and the breakout operation will begin at three o'clock in the morning, which is more than six hours later!"

"Next, I will make specific operational arrangements. Two field artillery brigades of the Third Army will conduct artillery bombardment on the independent division blocking troops guarding the Qinglonggou line, and then launch the largest offensive. This task will be carried out by the Third Army.

Take charge!”

"Other armies should withdraw the strength of one division and continue to attack the passages in several other directions to attract the attention of the enemy commander and contain the enemy so that they cannot reinforce the Qinglonggou front line. In addition, on the outer defensive positions, leave

The strength of the next one or two regiments confused the independent division troops outside the encirclement. The main forces of each army gathered in the direction of Qinglonggou two hours later. Once the third army opened the passage, they quickly left the battlefield and turned towards Liaoxi.

Enter!"

"Gentlemen, success or failure depends on this one move. The lives of my more than 400,000 imperial soldiers and the honor of the Kwantung Army are all in this battle. If successful, you gentlemen will be the heroes of the empire and create miracles on the battlefield of Manchuria.

If I fail, I, Tosa Shinken, will commit suicide by caesarean section to apologize for my sins, and I will never live! I hope you will do the same. Being captured by inferior Chinese soldiers is a shame for us, the general of the Japanese Empire!"

"Gentlemen, please go back and prepare immediately. Once the breakout operation begins, it will be a continuous attack regardless of casualties. The third army will be wiped out. The other armies will take over in accordance with the order of battle and continue to attack until the last person is killed! Gentlemen, please

!Long live the Empire of Japan!Long live His Majesty the Emperor!"

With hysterical impassionedness, Lieutenant General Tosa raised his arms and shouted slogans, ending his speech, "Long live!" A burst of consistent shouts echoed in the cave, and then infected all the staff officers of the Third Army Headquarters in the cave.

and the guards also started shouting, which was quite tragic!

Including Lieutenant General Takakura, everyone's blood boiled with excitement. The despair and helpless mood in the past few days seemed to have been injected with stimulants. According to this guy Tosa's plan, there is a great possibility of success if he breaks out of the encirclement!
