Guan Dashan changed a magazine, and when he was about to rush into the hole, a black mass was suddenly thrown from the opposite side of the hole, rolling to the ground.

"Grenade, hide!"

Guan Dashan let out a roar, and suddenly fell to the side.

Xiao Jiu and the other two fighters also quickly lay down on the ground.

The next moment, the smoking grenade exploded with a bang.

Xiao Jiu, who was the closest, let out a muffled snort immediately, and it seemed that he had been hit.

"Go to hell! Long live the Great Japanese Empire!" Immediately, two devils rushed over from the hole with bayonets in hand.

These two devils are not only fierce, but also have extremely high tactical literacy. It can be said that the timing of the counter-assault was chosen just right, so as to disintegrate Guan Dashan and their attack in one go.

The two soldiers who had just lay down had not waited for them to get up, the devil had already pulled the trigger first.

The gunshots rang out, and the two soldiers were shot and fell to the ground immediately. They were both shot in the heart and died on the spot.

Taking advantage of the short gap between the two soldiers who sacrificed their lives, Guan Dashan finally sat up, raised the submachine gun in his hand and was about to fire, but heard a light click.

Ganqing lay a beam of unknown origin in front of him.

The submachine gun hit the beam, and because of too much force, the gun was smashed to pieces.

The two devils instantly realized the danger, and rushed over with bayonets before they could pull the bolt back out of their shells.

"Go to hell!" The devil in front stabbed at him, Guan Dashan didn't have time to pull out the ghost knife on his back, so he could only grab the devil's bayonet with both hands.

When the devil's bayonet was blocked, the sharp point of the knife was only a few feet away from Guan Dashan's chest.

However, the crisis was not resolved. Just when Guan Dashan was about to unload the bayonet to fight back against the devil, another devil rushed over with a bayonet, aiming at Guan Dashan's abdomen with a thrust.

Guan Dashan could only push his feet on the ground, and tried his best to slide a little backward.

"Pfft!" The devil's bayonet stabbed heavily between Guan Dashan's legs.

Because the stabbing was too hard, the devil bent the bayonet.

Guan Dashan instantly felt a chill in his crotch, wondering if he was okay?

The devil stabbed in the air, immediately withdrew the knife, and took half a step back to prepare to stab again.

However, at this moment, there was only a light pop, and a bloody knife point suddenly pierced out of the devil's open and howling mouth.

Immediately afterwards, another devil was also stabbed through the vest with a bayonet.

Guan Dashan climbed up in embarrassment, only to see two more soldiers following up.

After taking a breath and calming down his throbbing mood a little, Guan Dashan pointed to the devil's corpse on the ground.

The two soldiers who followed understood, and immediately lifted a devil's corpse and threw it through the hole in the brick wall ahead.

The moment the corpse passed through the hole, two gunshots rang out from the opposite room, and there were indeed devils.

Long before the devil's gun was fired, Guan Dashan and two soldiers rushed in from the hole with submachine guns on their shoulders. They saw the two devils squatting at the stairs on the second floor, pulling the bolt of the gun.

Guan Dashan and the two soldiers pulled the trigger without hesitation.

The two devils were immediately beaten into a sieve, which is the advantage of the equipment.

Looking around again, there was no devil on the first floor of the small western building.

After making a gesture, Guan Dashan immediately took the lead and attacked from the stairs to the second floor.

As soon as I got to the second floor, I heard intense machine gun fire. This is a Type [-] heavy machine gun!

Following the gunshots, Guan Dashan quickly found the room where the heavy machine gun was deployed, and saw two devils squatting in front of the small window serving as a shooting hole, firing wildly at the street outside.

The Eighth Route Army's attack not only advanced from house to house, but also along the streets.

What the devils are shooting at the moment is the troops advancing along the street.

One of the gunmen was facing the door with his hand sideways, and he saw Guan Dashan in an instant.

"Eighth Route Army!" The ghost gunman shouted, trying to take out the bastard box on his waist.

But before the ghost gunner took out the bastard box, Guan Dashan pulled the trigger first, and the dense submachine gun bullets instantly smashed the ghost machine gunner and the gunner into a blood sieve.

At this time, two other fighters followed.

With a gesture, Guan Dashan signaled the two soldiers to continue sweeping the rooftops.

Guan Dashan himself squatted behind the heavy machine gun, held the wooden handle, then turned to face the devil barricade in front and pulled the trigger.

……

The front is actually the headquarters of the 291st Japanese Infantry Regiment.

Just when Guan Dashan pulled the trigger of the heavy machine gun, Utada Yoshiro also struck a match, and personally lit the alliance flag bestowed by the emperor.

The alliance flag has special significance for the Japanese army.

The Japanese military system, the division designation may be revoked at any time, but once the regiment designation is granted, it will only be revoked under one circumstance, that is, the regiment flag is captured by the enemy.

Therefore, the Japanese army paid great attention to protecting the safety of the alliance flag.

In order to ensure the safety of the alliance flag, there is even a special flag guard squadron.

This flag guard squadron is well-equipped, and all the most elite soldiers are selected, and kerosene, matches and other fire starters are also prepared to ensure that the alliance flag can be burned in time under any circumstances.

Utada Yoshiro felt bitter when he saw the flag of the alliance engulfed by the flames.

The United flag has been burned to ashes, which also means that his life has entered the last moment.

However, Yoshiro Utada would not choose to commit seppuku. From the bottom of his heart, he believed that committing seppuku was a cowardly act, and a true warrior should fight to the last moment on the battlefield.

"Clang!" Yoshiro Utada slowly drew his saber.

"Mori-kun!" Yoshiro Utada looked at the flames outside the window, and said to the communications team leader, Moritaro, "You can send a farewell telegram to the Division Headquarters. After sending the telegram, please launch a charge!"

"Hai." Moritaro sat down and sent a telegram.

Yoshiro Utada launched a counterattack with the flag guard squadron.

……

Anhua County, the headquarters of the No.60 Ninth Division of the Japanese Army.

The head of the communications section, Igarashimi, walked into the war room with a black face holding a telegram.

"Division commander!" Igarashi did not report to Sakamoto Ryuichi this time, but reported to Inoue Sadae, "Utada Regiment's direct communications team, Second Lieutenant Mori, just sent a farewell telegram."

"Baga Yalu!" Inoue Zhenwei cursed angrily.

After cursing, Inoue Zhenwei pointed the spearhead at Sakamoto Ryuichi again: "Sakamoto-kun, this is all your fault, I have already said that all the troops in Ping'an County and Nao County should be shrunk into Anhua County, why are you so angry?" If you don’t listen, you also say that doing so will lose the depth of defense and make the entire division passive, what do you say now?”

Igarashi, Kato Sadao and others also looked at Ryuichi Sakamoto with dissatisfaction.

This is breaking the drum and hammering it, and pushing the wall down. There is no exception in ancient and modern China and abroad.

Because not only Inoue Sadae, but also Igarashi and other officers could see that even if the reinforcements could arrive soon, the No. 60 Ninth Division would inevitably suffer heavy losses.

Someone must be responsible for such a huge loss.

And Ryuichi Sakamoto is undoubtedly the best scapegoat.

No, Ryuichi Sakamoto is the culprit, not the scapegoat.

However, Ryuichi Sakamoto had no idea about this, and he didn't seem to realize it.

Ryuichi Sakamoto didn't even figure out the situation, thinking that he was still in command of the No.60 Ninth Division.

"No, no! The situation is wrong!" Sakamoto Ryuichi squinted his eyes and said, "It seems that we have seriously misjudged the progress of the Shanxi Northwest Eighth Route Army's overall tactical thinking!"

"Damn it, what the hell are you talking about?"

Sadao Kato no longer has that much respect for Ryuichi Sakamoto.

Want to put the blame on our intelligence class?Tell you, no way!

Ryuichi Sakamoto was immersed in his own logical thinking, and shouted: "Order, the 290th Infantry Regiment immediately abandon Nao County and break out in the direction of Datong!"

"What?" Several combat staff officers looked at each other, breaking through?

Inoue Zhenwei said angrily: "Sakamoto-kun, are you listening to us?"

Takashi Sakamoto turned a deaf ear to Sadae Inoue's questioning, and said: "The 292rd Battalion of the 3nd Infantry Regiment and the units directly under the division also assembled immediately to break through in the direction of Taiyuan!"

"Baga!" Inoue Zhenwei couldn't bear it any longer, and slapped him across the face.

"Crack!" With a crisp sound, five clear finger marks were left on Takashi Sakamoto's face.

"Division commander?" Sakamoto Ryuichi covered his face, feeling a little confused, what's going on?

A few seconds later, Ryuichi Sakamoto turned his gaze to Igarashimi and yelled, "What are you still doing in a daze? Hurry up and send a telegram to Tanimura United!"

Igarashi just sneered.

Inoue Zhenwei said coldly: "Sakamoto-kun, you have been dismissed."

"What?" Takashi Sakamoto was stunned for a moment, and finally reacted and shouted, "Master, it doesn't matter if you dismiss me, but my order must be conveyed, and Northwest Shanxi cannot stay any longer!"

After a pause, he continued: "Although I don't know what happened specifically, the fact is that the Eighth Route Army's combat guiding ideology has evolved, and it has evolved by leaps and bounds! Not only have they jumped out of the category of guerrilla warfare and sparrow warfare, Not only have they mastered the essence of field warfare, I even doubt that they have mastered the ability to fight in large groups!"

"Big corps fighting?" Not only did Inoue Sadae not believe it, Igarashi and the others looked at each other in blank dismay.

"Yes, fighting in the large army." Ryuichi Sakamoto was immersed in his own logic again, and said, "Although this is just my suspicion and guess, I think the possibility is extremely high!"

Speaking of this meal, Ryuichi Sakamoto said again: "Commander, this is an extremely dangerous signal."

"The Eighth Route Army in Northwest Shanxi is undergoing a terrible evolution, and the evolution speed is getting faster and faster. If the evolution is allowed to continue, it will grow into a terrible opponent!"

"But luckily, we've discovered that."

"As far as the moment is concerned, the imperial army still has an absolute advantage."

"As long as the imperial army can mobilize heavy troops in a short period of time, it will be encircled and suppressed."

"Then, the imperial army still has a chance to nip this dangerous opponent in the bud."

"So, the main force of the Tokuda United team and the collective jade pieces of the Utada United team are valuable."

After a pause, Ryuichi Sakamoto said again: "Because the jade fragments of these two regiments have brought us a new understanding of the Eighth Route Army in Northwest Shanxi, and made the imperial army aware of their unparalleled danger..."

Sakamoto Ryuichi was still talking endlessly, but Inoue Sadae was impatient.

"Enough, what a mess!" Inoue Zhenwei interrupted, "Shut up!"

Naturally, Ryuichi Sakamoto would not shut up, and chattered again: "Division commander, the Eighth Route Army in Northwest Shanxi has evolved to the field level, and its strength and firepower also occupy an absolute advantage. Even if our No. 60 Ninth Division is fully equipped They are no match for the full staff, not to mention that there is only half of the Remnant Division left? Therefore, we must quickly break through!"

"Shut up!" Inoue Zhenwei couldn't help but slap Sakamoto Takaichi again, and said, "Take him down!"

Even though two gendarmes stepped forward and took Sakamoto Ryuichi away without any explanation, Sakamoto Ryuichi was still not reconciled, and turned around while walking and shouted: "Division commander, break out quickly, break out quickly!"

But soon, Takashi Sakamoto's voice was gone and could no longer be heard.

"This annoying guy is finally gone." Inoue Sadae heaved a sigh of relief.

Igarashi said conveniently: "Master, the situation is critical now, what should I do?"

"Order!" Inoue Sadae was finally able to exercise his authority as division commander, "The Tanimura Regiment immediately abandoned Nao County, but instead of breaking out in the direction of Datong, they went south to approach the main force of the division."

After a pause, Zhenwei Inoue said again: "The Eighth Route Army in Northwest Shanxi has superior strength and firepower. At this time, it is not appropriate for our No. 60 Ninth Division to divide our troops. The reinforcements attacked from inside and outside, defeating the Eighth Route Army in Northwest Shanxi in one fell swoop."

"The head of the division is wise." Igarashi said beautifully.

Inoue Sadae said, "Hurry up and give orders to the Tanimura Regiment."

"Hai." Igarashi paused, turned around and left in a hurry.

After a pause, Inoue Zhenwei said again: "Order, the Nomura brigade will seize the fortifications on the periphery of Anhua County again. These fortifications are the barriers of Anhua County. How can they give up so easily?"

Regarding this order, the head of the intelligence section, Kato Sadao, still raised doubts.

Kato Sadao said: "Division Commander, judging from the results of the battle in Ping'an County, it seems that it is not a good idea to deploy troops in the outer fortifications. It is better to shrink in the county and start house-to-house and street battles with the Eighth Route Army."

"What do you know?" Inoue Zhenwei said, "Haven't you read the combat order? Defensive warfare has the essentials of defensive warfare. One failure does not explain the problem. The various tactics recorded in the combat order are used by countless ancestors of the empire. How dare you question the authority of the precious experience gained in exchange for countless blood?"

"Don't dare." Kato Sadao paused slightly.
