Hundreds of millions of cloud explosive bombs were fired at the beginning, and horses were riding on

"And I know that General Ichiro Ono also said that this independent column is very powerful, with a size of nearly 2 people. They have a lot of artillery, including hundreds of mortars, infantry guns, and field guns, including various howitzers with a caliber of more than 100mm. They also have tanks and airplanes, so we must be careful. Now the entire 56th Division has suffered a lot of casualties..."

"At least 10,000 people were killed or wounded, so they want us to provide support as soon as possible so that we can cooperate with them to take down this damn independent column..."

At this time, a staff officer of the 72nd Division also came to Yamano Kojiro in a panic...

They have received telegrams like this from the Fifth Brother continuously, which shows the importance and stress that Ono Ichiro attaches to this matter. At the same time, the people of the 72nd Division also know that the 56th Division in front of them is suffering from great pressure and attacks from artillery fire.

Kojiro Yamano on this side was also a little surprised when he heard what his chief of staff said.

"Nani...how could they lose so many people in such a short time? If I remember correctly, how long has the battle lasted? Not long at all...If I remember correctly, it should have been only two days, and the independent column was defeated in these two days. Is it because the 56th Division is too weak to be beaten into this state? Or did they have the right time, place and people? Otherwise, with the strength and record of the 56th Division, it would never have been possible for them to encounter such a thing."

Yamano Kojiro is quite familiar with Ono Ichiro, the commander of the 56th Division. The two cooperated with each other on the battlefield. Although their relationship was not so close, it was still a comradeship. He knew that Ono Ichiro's command ability was a little worse than his, but it was much better than some people. At this moment, the 56th Division had suffered such a big loss, and Ono Ichiro was so anxious to ask them to support. This surprised the little pervert Yamano in front of him. Could it be that the strength of this independent column was too strong...

Otherwise, how could the 56th Division have fallen into its current state?

Although Yamano Kojiro was a little puzzled, the commander had already given him a death order, which was to support Jiancheng and the 56th Division at all costs. He had to do it, no matter how strong the independent column was, even if there were mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead, he had to do it.

So at this time, Yamano Kojiro was also listening to what the staff officer said.

"Your Excellency, we are not sure about this, but General Ono Ichiro seems very anxious. If I am not mistaken, the attack of the independent column over there has indeed made them feel dangerous. Otherwise, the 56th Division would not have become like this."

"I have already collected relevant information before coming here. The strength of this independent column is indeed strong... They have fought in the battlefields of Jin Province. They have basically achieved phased victories in so many battles, big and small. Moreover, as long as they encounter our troops, they will do everything they can to destroy our large forces. Even if it costs them a lot of hope, they will kill us."

"In the previous battles on the battlefield in southwest Shanxi, whenever the puppet army encountered them, they would not surrender. So I also heard that the 56th Division was originally supported by the 88th Division of the Wei Army, but the 88th Division of the puppet army often defected to the independent column halfway, which put them in a dangerous situation. Now the entire Song County battlefield is divided into two teams. One team is our 56th Division and the 89th Division of the puppet army, who are struggling to hold on. The other team is the independent column and the 88th Division of Wenjun."

The Japanese staff officer had already made appropriate rest. He also sent scouts to continuously conduct reconnaissance forward, so he was able to obtain so much information. Of course, it was also enough to show that the reconnaissance capability of the 72nd Division was still relatively strong.

At this moment, when Yamano Kojiro heard him and the others talking like this, he nodded.

"If I remember correctly, didn't the Central Army also fight with our 56th Division? How come the Central Army's troops are gone?"

Yamano Kojiro knew that the troops stationed in Song County were a unit of the Central Army, which seemed to be called the 32nd Division of the Central Army. Logically, they should fight against the 32nd Division of the Central Army, so how come they suddenly became independent columns and other troops?

"You don't know this, sir. Although the Central 32nd Division was originally stationed in Song County, they also resisted for a long time. Our 56th Division was very angry, but I don't know how. They may have communicated with the Independent Column, so they also set up an empty city plan for Song County, allowing the 56th Division and the puppet army's 89th Division to enter. As soon as they entered, the Independent Column came directly over and carried out fierce aircraft and tank bombings on them."

"It is precisely because of this that the casualties of the 56th Division were so heavy. General Ono Ichiro also made this very clear in the telegram."

The staff officer once again began to state the news. He understood everything, so he had already sorted it out and prepared to report it to the commander of the 72nd Division, Yamano Kojiro....

Yamano Kojiro nodded when he heard what his staff officer said, as if he had suddenly realized something.

"No wonder, no wonder. From what I know about the 56th Division, it's impossible for them to kill so many people just because of a simple enemy charge. General Ichiro is very cautious. Although he is invincible on other battlefields, he is very cautious in battle."

"At the same time, we can also see that this is the cunning tactics of the Independent Column, which can make the 56th Division fall flat on its face, and can make our General Ono fall flat on his face... This Independent Column is not an ordinary unit. We must not underestimate them, otherwise we will be the ones who suffer."

Anyway, the current commander of the 72nd Division, Yamano Kojiro, is also full of curiosity about this independent column...

At the same time, he felt that he could not take it lightly. He had also known about the existence of independence in other battlefields. If he underestimated the independent column, he would inevitably suffer a backlash.
