Draw the sword and cure the fear of insufficient firepower

The staff officer thought to himself, OK, I feel relieved when you say that. Since you asked me to read it anyway, I won’t be polite.

Besides, these are the Commander's original words, I am just reading them to the Brigade Commander.

So the staff officer cleared his throat and began to read with full emotion.

"Order! Sakamoto Eiji, you idiot pig!"

"Come to the headquarters in person!"

"Your Excellency the Commander must personally listen to the reflections of this empire's shame and scum!"

"The commander wants to see you commit seppuku to apologize before his own eyes, you stupid pig!"

After reading it, the staff officer straightened up, pressed his boots together, and waited for the brigade commander's instructions.

"idiot!"

"Bagya Road!"

"How can it be repaired?"

"how so!"

Sakamoto Eiji was furious and kept roaring with his fists clenched.

The huge shame and anger made Sakamoto Eiji's pig face twitch, causing the tuft of mustache under his nose to shake up and down, which was very funny.

He rushed to the staff officer and snatched the telegram.

"Clap clap clap!"

Several loud slaps were heard.

The poor staff officer covered his face, stumbled and fell at the door, but he didn't dare to lie down.

I had no choice but to stand up dazedly, with tears and snot all over my face.

"Hai!"

"Hai!"

Even though he was beaten, he still had to remain respectful to his superiors.

The staff officer felt miserable. It was you who asked me to read it, and why did you hit me after I finished reading it?

Didn’t you promise not to lie to me?

Woohoo~

These big guys made the staff officer's already ugly face look even more miserable.

After slapping the staff officer a few times, Sakamoto Eiji felt a little better.

He picked up the telegram and read it word by word.

Upon seeing this, Sakamoto Eiji looked terrible. He was in a heavy mood, had an ugly face, and was listless, just like an old eggplant hit by frost.

Earlier, the call from the front line reported that they had suffered heavy losses, and that nearly a thousand of the 3500 Japanese soldiers sent out had been killed.

They also said that the enemy had strong firepower and fierce offensive.

Previously, Eiji Sakamoto thought it was nonsense.

It was an excuse made by the front-line commander to justify his defeat.

Now we have received a telegram from the headquarters that the 4th Brigade has been completely wiped out.

But what does the annihilation of their Fourth Brigade have to do with my Eighth Mixed Brigade? !

Did we wipe them all out?!

Is that the friendly force I attacked?!

The commander actually chose to let him take the blame and even asked him to go to the headquarters to reflect on himself.

He even had to commit seppuku to apologize.

I am wronged, who can understand my grievances...

I'm so heartbroken, do you know?

The staff officer stood straight at this moment, trying to force out a smile to please Sakamoto Eiji, so that the leader would not continue to be angry, and his face would be relieved. He couldn't bear it...

But this smile, now displayed on a swollen pig's face, seemed to have another meaning.

Sakamoto Eiji was furious. The more he looked at him, the more he felt that this guy was laughing at him.

Yes, the commander of this brigade has received such humiliation and injustice.

As a subordinate of the brigade commander, shouldn't you comfort yourself at this time? !

Shouldn't I come here to find excuses and a way out for my superior? !

The more I think about it, the angrier I get!

"Clap clap clap!"

Sakamoto Eiji swung his arms and threw several powerful punches like a gust of wind, which whistled down on the staff officer's already swollen face.

The staff officer was knocked back, and trying hard to suppress the urge to cry, he stood up with difficulty with a sad face.

He stood still, tears welling up in his eyes, and bowed repeatedly.

"Hai!"

"Hai!"

"Please forgive me, Your Excellency, the Brigade Commander!"

After these slaps, Sakamoto Eiji's anger slowly dissipated.

"Go send a message to the idiots at the front!"

"Send them back!"

"We'll settle accounts with them after our brigade commander returns from the headquarters!"

The staff officer quickly fled from this sad place and ran to the telegraph room.

At this time, on the outskirts of Ping'an County, at the position of the 8th Mixed Brigade.

The commander of this troop, Colonel Masamune Hamasaki, is still commanding the troops to advance forward.

"charge!"

"Warriors of the Empire!"

"The enemy's firepower has weakened, charge!"

"The Locust Army must not be stopped by the enemy!"

Just as Hamasaki Mason was waving his command knife and screaming, the communications soldier came running over.

"Report to Colonel Hamasaki, the brigade commander is calling!"

"Order us to retreat!"

When Hamasaki Shin took the telegram and read it, he gasped and was shocked.

"Nani?"

"The 4th Brigade was completely wiped out?!"

"How can it be repaired?"

"How did the 4th Brigade fight?!"

"Even if there were nine thousand pigs, the Eighth Route Army wouldn't be able to catch them all in three days and three nights!"

"It hasn't been long since the entire army was wiped out!"

"How can it be repaired?"

"We are clearly about to break through the obstacle!"

"Give me another two hours, and we will definitely be able to break through!"

Hamasaki Mason raised his command knife and chopped wildly at a rock next to him.

After venting for a while, I slowly calmed down.

"Order the troops to retreat!"

"Get back to Ping'an County as soon as possible!"

Hamasaki Mason was still relatively calm. He knew the situation was not in his favor, so he decided to run away while the losses were not too great, and hurriedly shouted to his staff.

The staff officer immediately gave the signal to retreat, and the Japanese who were charging saw the signal and retreated down the mountain in panic.

Li Yunlong was still enjoying killing the Japanese with his Maxim heavy machine gun when he saw the Japanese retreating.

I was suddenly confused.

Zhao Gang, who was standing by, saw this and shouted in surprise, "Retreat!"

"The devils are retreating!"

"Old Li, the battle must have ended in Division 1. The Japanese have lost their target and are afraid of being surrounded and annihilated by us, so they want to retreat!"

"What a great opportunity, Lao Li!"

Li Yunlong reacted as soon as he heard it and ordered loudly:

"Damn!"

"All charge!"

"Leave these devils here!"

"We can't let the meat in our mouths escape!"

The soldiers attached their bayonets and jumped out of the trenches.

Li Yunlong led the way, rushing to the front of the team with a big knife in his hand.

They killed anyone they saw. When the soldiers saw their commander charging ahead, they naturally could not be vague.

Morale boosted!

Some Japanese soldiers wanted to fight back, but they were shot dead by Zhao Gang's sniper team as soon as they raised their guns.

Li Yunlong was very excited watching this.

The big knife in his hand flew up and down as if with the help of God, and the heads of the Japanese flew up wherever it went.

It's not just Li Yunlong who is like this.

The same was true of Ding Wei's new regiment's position.

The Japanese who had been attacking frantically just now were now trying to run away.

Ding Wei also quickly ordered his troops to launch a counterattack.

This group of Japanese soldiers had been attacking here for nearly eight hours without any progress. They were already exhausted, their morale was low, and they were at the end of their strength.

At this time, facing the counterattack of the New 1st Regiment, the Japanese were completely defenseless.

Screams rang out one after another, and the great fear made the Japanese soldiers flee frantically.

There is no special skill to escaping. As long as you run faster than your companions, the enemy's bayonet will not stab you.

As the saying goes, a dead Taoist friend will never die a poor Taoist.

Ding Wei put the Mauser pistol in his hand into the holster at his waist, put one foot on the trench, and raised the binoculars with both hands to observe.

"it is good!"

"Okay!"

"The devils are made of meat too!"

"You're also scared!"

"A bayonet stabbed into the body will also leave a bloody hole!"

More than half an hour later, the remaining 300-odd Japanese devils on Ding Wei's side finally ran back to Hamasaki Mason.

Looking at the one thousand Japanese soldiers sent out, there are only more than three hundred left now. Together with the Japanese soldiers who retreated from their side, there are a total of 1756 people.

Damn, when did the Chinese army become so difficult to defeat!

Hamasaki Makoto cursed.
