Chapter 226: The Chief Fully Supports Gundam
The brigade commander raised his head and said happily: "Communicator, contact all troops immediately. The blocking mission has been completed. Evacuate the battlefield in an orderly manner."
"Yes, Brigadier."
The communicators quickly began issuing instructions to the various troops.
He operated the radio skillfully and conveyed the brigade commander's orders accurately.
As the order was issued, the 386th Brigade quickly left the blocking position and retreated into the mountains.
Their movements were swift and orderly, like a group of agile cheetahs, and they soon disappeared into the mountains.
The devils from the 37th Division continued to pursue the Eighth Route Army Headquarters relentlessly. There was a determination in their eyes to capture the Eighth Route Army Headquarters.
..............
9 month 26 day.
After the 102nd Division had rested, the entire army launched an attack on the Ping'an County base.
Nearly 17,000 Japanese soldiers rushed towards the heart of the independent column's base along the road like a black torrent.
The huge team was so aggressive that it seemed to swallow up everything.
The huge Japanese army was marching quickly on the road, and Japanese reconnaissance planes in the sky were constantly surveying the road, looking for the Eighth Route Army.
The reconnaissance planes were buzzing in the sky like annoying flies.
Hasegawa distributed all the traitors on the left and right wings of the army, burning, killing and looting the villages along the way.
His purpose in doing this was to force the Eighth Route Army out. He didn't believe that the Independent Column would tolerate them wreaking havoc in the base area.
There was a sinister look in his eyes, and he attempted to lure out the Eighth Route Army by using this despicable means.
If the Eighth Route Army wanted to launch a surprise attack, it would first have to fight with the Japanese invaders. Then the 102nd Division would surround and annihilate the attacking Eighth Route Army.
the other side.
The 103rd Division was also in action, and both sides simultaneously launched attacks on the heart of the Ping'an County base.
They were like two sharp swords, stabbing at the base of the independent column at the same time.
Faced with the small-scale attack of the Independent Column, the Japanese army remained unmoved and continued to march towards Ping'an County. Their target was the core area of the Independent Column's base.
.............
Lijiazhuang, Ping'an County.
Inside the independent column headquarters, Gao Da and Qi Tongwei were analyzing the current situation.
"Political Commissar, according to the news sent back from the front, the Japanese army has changed its strategy and concentrated all its forces to launch an attack on the heart of the base." Gaoda said worriedly.
His brows furrowed slightly, feeling worried about the current situation.
Qi Tongwei nodded slightly and said, "Commander, it seems we have to activate the emergency plan."
Gao Da pondered for a moment and said, "Political Commissar, now is not the most dangerous time. There is no need to activate the emergency plan. Although the Japanese have concentrated their forces, the independent column is not a pushover."
"I have decided to send the Ping An Brigade to Heyuan County to wipe out the Japanese 102nd Division. To be on the safe side, I will seek support from the headquarters. I believe that the headquarters will also be very happy to wipe out a division of the Japanese."
Qi Tongwei nodded slightly. He also knew that if the Japanese 102nd Division could be wiped out in Heyuan County, it would bring about earth-shaking changes to the situation in the entire northwest Shanxi region.
The head of the headquarters would also agree with this decision, as the achievement of destroying a Japanese division was too tempting.
"Commander, I agree with your idea. Let's do a big thing and put an end to the Japanese's arrogance." Qi Tongwei said excitedly.
There was excitement in his eyes, as if he had seen the dawn of victory.
Afterwards, Gundam asked the communicator to send a telegram to the headquarters to explain the situation.
He hopes that the headquarters can provide support to jointly complete this arduous task.
..................
The temporary headquarters of the Eighth Route Army.
After receiving the message from the independent column, the communicator immediately reported to the leader.
"Report to the commander, the independent column sent a telegram."
His voice broke the silence in the headquarters.
"Hurry, give me the telegram." The leader said anxiously.
The chief took the phone from the operator and looked at it.
The leader frowned, as if thinking about something.
In his mind, he was weighing the feasibility of this plan and the possible risks it might bring.
The chief of staff at the side saw this and asked, "Commander, what news did the independent column send?"
There was curiosity in his voice, wanting to know the independent column's plans.
The chief slowly said, "Chief of Staff, the independent column wants to wipe out the Japanese 102nd Division in Heyuan County."
The Chief of Staff gasped when he heard this.
His eyes widened slightly and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
The Independent Column's appetite is too big. The Japanese 102nd Division is a strong enemy. What's more, in addition to facing the 102nd Division, the Independent Column also has to face the attack of the 103rd Division.
He couldn't help but start to worry whether the independent column could stop the attack of the Japanese division.
"Commander, the situation of the independent column is very bad now. Two divisions of the Japanese plus tens of thousands of traitors, nearly 10 people, are attacking the base of the independent column.
Gundam actually wants to destroy the 102nd Division. This is simply a fantasy. If things go wrong, we might even be surrounded by two divisions of the Japanese enemy."
The Chief of Staff expressed concern about the situation of the independent column.
After hearing the chief of staff's words, the chief pondered for a moment, picked up the cigarette in his hand, took a deep breath, and exhaled slowly.
The smoke spread throughout the headquarters, just like his complicated thoughts at the moment.
The atmosphere in the headquarters became depressing, and everyone was waiting for the leader's decision.
There was anticipation in their eyes, knowing that this decision would affect the entire battle situation.
Suddenly, the chief threw the cigarette in his hand to the ground, walked to the large map, looked at it for a moment, then turned to face the chief of staff and said.
"Chief of Staff, I believe that Gundam is not a reckless person. Since he is confident that he can destroy the Japanese 102nd Division, then I believe him.
Order the 386th Brigade to immediately support the independent column, and all troops in the northwest of Shanxi to coordinate actions to block the enemy's reinforcements.
Once the battle begins, other Japanese troops in northwest Shanxi will surely fight to the death to reinforce us. We must do our best to stop the Japanese reinforcements and buy time for the independent column. "
"Yes, Chief. I'll arrange it right away."
The chief of staff accepted the order and left the command center to make arrangements.
His figure quickly disappeared in the command center to carry out the leader's orders.
The commander stood in front of the big map and murmured, "Gundam, I support you with all my strength. I hope you won't let me down. The glory of destroying the 102nd Division of the Japanese will make the Eighth Route Army the first army in China."
There was a kind of expectation in his eyes, hoping that the independent column could create a miracle.
