Draw the sword and cure the fear of insufficient firepower

Ding Wei thought about it for a long time and finally suffered a huge loss.

Last time when they attacked Ping'an County, this kid Li Yunlong was so stunned by the command he and Kong Jie had, that he said he was just satisfying his desire to be a division commander.

In fact, that is more impressive than that of a teacher.

Now, Kong Jie is the official division commander, and he has to obey Kong Jie's command.

Ding Wei never does business at a loss.

"Hahaha, Lao Ding, you are such a fool. You will be a commander sooner or later. Why are you in such a hurry?"

"Since you have been transferred to our 4th Division by the commander, you naturally have to change your uniforms."

"Don't worry, I'm not some local rich guy from Jin Province. I can afford to give it up."

Upon hearing this, Kong Jie stared at Ding Wei with squinted eyes and laughed.

No matter how you look at it, I've managed to hold my head high this time.

……

Yandu.

The Japanese had already made preparations for a breakout, just waiting for Morita's order.

In Morita Daikou's office, a group of Japanese generals could not wait any longer.

"General, do it!"

"Yes, General, the Eighth Route Army has been slack recently. This is a great opportunity for us!"

"Although our people can't get out yet, as long as we start a fight we can send out a few messengers!"

"General, don't hesitate any longer!"

In the office, a group of Japanese generals seemed to be asking for instructions, but in fact they were forcing Morita to speak.

Because in the past few days they realized that Morita Daikou's will to break out was not very strong, and he always vaguely wanted to take them to surrender.

That's why this play came about.

"Everyone, rest assured, I will definitely lead you to a successful breakthrough."

"But not now, we have to wait until night, so that it will be convenient for our actions!"

"Besides, I have already sent people to dig a tunnel and hide out. I think we will get a reply this afternoon!"

"When the time comes, we and the reinforcements will attack from both inside and outside, and we will definitely be able to inflict heavy damage on the Eighth Route Army!"

"The Eighth Route Army has besieged us for so long, don't you want to retaliate?"

Morita Daikou was calm and composed. He was mentally prepared for this situation.

He had already prepared his speech.

These words are half true and half false.

It was true that they dug a tunnel and sneaked out, but it was false that they contacted the reinforcements.

"I see. Your Excellency the General is a man of foresight!"

"We are in a hurry!"

"Then we will wait here for good news from His Excellency the General!"

The Japanese generals were skeptical. If it was true, then Morita Daikou was really meticulous and far-sighted.

If it was fake, then he would not have sent anyone out.

So they chose to wait and see.

A Japanese major general winked at the others, walked out of the door, said a few words to his men, and then walked out of the yard.

Not long after.

The men came back to report.

"Your Excellency the Brigade Commander, there are indeed two tunnels in the west of the city, leading out of the city!" the subordinate reported.

"Yoshi!"

The Japanese major general clapped his hands and said happily.

Then he returned to Morita Daiguchi's office and nodded slightly to others.

The other Japanese generals then smiled at each other and felt relieved.

It seems that they didn't think enough and wrongly blamed Morita for being too greedy.

"General, let's go down and make preparations." A Japanese lieutenant general stood up and bowed.

"Hurry up, we will definitely succeed tonight!" Morita took it all in, laughing in his heart, thinking that he was one step ahead.

time flies.

Soon it was evening.

The Japanese had finished their dinner early and were doing their jobs, waiting for Morita Dakou's orders.

In Morita's room.

"General, the commander of the Eighth Route Army said that as long as you lead the locust army out of the city and to the location they designated, they will definitely treat the locust army well."

"I've also figured it out. The Eighth Route Army that is besieging us is the 129th Division. There are no members of the First Division in it. We can be treated preferentially."

Morita Oguchi's men rushed into the city from the tunnel and immediately came back to report.

"Yoshi, it's not just a division. I knew that troops of this level could not participate in the siege!" Morita's eyes lit up and he was overjoyed.

It’s not good to just have one partition.

This partition is too cruel.

Those who resisted were shot directly, and the other prisoners were sent to the mines to do hard labor, and they would die sooner or later.

He wanted to surrender in order to save the lives of these tens of thousands of locust soldiers. He had already seen the empire's defeat in the last battle, and there was no point in adding tens of thousands of casualties.

Now that this information has been confirmed, he feels confident.

It doesn't matter whether it is the 129th Division or the 115th Division, as long as it is not a division.

Except for the First Division, the other Eighth Route Army troops kept their word and treated the prisoners well.

These tens of thousands of people will also have a good end.

Otherwise, if he surrendered to Division One, his subordinates would realize that they had been deceived and would definitely engage in a firefight with Division One.

The ending is bound to be that the locust army is completely wiped out.

The people in the first division don't care about that. Anyone who doesn't put down his gun will be shot dead.

"Did the Eighth Route Army say what time they would take action?" Morita asked loudly.

"A brigade commander of the Eighth Route Army said that at 10 o'clock in the evening, we should lead the troops out of Congchengnan and keep moving forward. The rest will be left to them." said the Japanese soldier.

"Yoshi! Yoshi!" Morita was grinning from ear to ear. The earlier the better. He didn't want to suffer any more. "Go and pass the order. All troops should assemble at 9:30 pm and break out from the south of the city at 10 pm!"

"Hi!" the Japanese soldier bowed.

……

ten o'clock.

Morita gave a loud order and the gate to the south of the city slowly opened. It was a cloudy night and there was no moon.

Only a few sparse lights could be vaguely seen in the Eighth Route Army camp in the distance.

The Japanese breathed a sigh of relief, as it seemed that the Eighth Route Army had not discovered them.

The Japanese soldiers continued to move forward until all 40,000 of them were out of the city.

"Move forward quietly and don't make any noise!" Morita said seriously.

The Japanese generals continued to advance in fear.

To be on the safe side, the troops threw away their water bottles during this operation to prevent the kettles from making noises due to collisions during night marches and being discovered by the Eighth Route Army.

"General, you are really awesome. We have come so far, but the Eighth Route Army hasn't discovered us yet. We are about to pass their blockade zone." A Japanese general said happily.

They will be able to escape soon...

Morita Daikou was observing all the way. He strictly followed the instructions of the brigade commander and led the troops forward without daring to deviate at all.

Soon, the troops entered a valley.

Morita realized that this was the place.

……

On the distant hillside, the brigade commander was observing the movements below with a telescope.

"The Japanese are quite obedient. It would have been so much fun if this had been an ambush! What a pity..."

The brigade commander couldn't stop laughing, there were more than 40,000 Japanese soldiers below him.

"Deputy Chief of Staff Lin is really ruthless, but we must treat the prisoners well," said the Chief of Staff.
