Anti-Japanese War: I am the warlord of Ping'an County! The whole army is German!

Chapter 44: The Japs’ forced march, Nakamura Ryo’s panic!

The Pingmu Battalion began a forced march after leaving the train station.

The original six-hour journey was shortened to three hours by the Pingmu Brigade.

Even so, Yuta Hiraki was not satisfied.

"Shanbei, how long will it take for the troops to reach Ping'an County?"

Ever since learning of the death of his younger brother, Yuto Hiraki, Yuta Hiraki has wanted to see Ryo Nakamura very much.

"Captain, the troops will arrive at Ping'an County in about an hour."

Upon hearing this, Captain Shanbei immediately took out the map and took a look at it. He then said, hesitantly, "Captain, do the troops need a break?"

"The troops have been marching for two hours now, and the soldiers need to rest."

Upon hearing this, Hiraki Yuta first looked at the marching troops. They did look tired, but Hiraki Yuta did not want to march quickly.

"Captain, northwest Shanxi is not very safe. Attacks often occur here."

"Although we are a large battalion, our soldiers are tired now, so we have to be on guard!"

Seeing that Hiraki Yuta didn't say anything, Captain Yamakita spoke again in a low voice.

"Shanbei, you are too cowardly, even though attacks on the imperial army often occur in northwest Shanxi."

"But those who were attacked were all small teams. We are a large team of the Empire, and a reinforced one at that."

"Those Shanxi-Suiyuan Army and the Eighth Route Army didn't dare show their heads when they saw us marching."

Upon hearing this, Hiraki Yuta looked disdainful. He didn't believe that the Eighth Route Army would dare to launch a sneak attack on his brigade without the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army.

"Captain, I just discovered..." Before Captain Yamakita could finish his words, Hiraki Yuta interrupted him, "Yamakita, I know what you mean."

"After half an hour, let the troops stop and rest for a while."

Yamakita said nothing more after hearing this. He knew Hiraki Yuta too well. He was an extremely confident soldier and also a nobleman who would not listen to advice.

At this moment, Shanbei knew that no matter what he said, he would be insulted by Hiraki Yuta.

In fact, Yamakita wanted to tell Hiraki Yuta that someone was spying on their whereabouts.

"Shanbei, go see what happened ahead and why the troops stopped."

Just as Yamakita was wondering which force was spying on their march, Hiraki Yuta's voice came again.

Upon hearing this, Shanbei could only go and check it out quickly.

The reason why the troops stopped was very simple, that is, another vehicle overturned.

The Pingmu Battalion was unfamiliar with the roads here, and coupled with the forced march, they had overturned several times along the way.

......

Ping'an County.

Japanese military camp.

"Commander, the troops from Gejia Village just sent a telegram saying they saw the Pingmu Battalion half an hour ago."

"Liu Erniu's artillery tower also sent a telegram saying that ten minutes ago, they saw the Pingmu Battalion passing by their artillery tower."

Xu Hu walked up to Zhou Weimin and reported in a low voice.

"You bastard, that devil Hiraki Yuta is on a forced march."

"According to the normal travel time, Gejia Village is nearly an hour's journey from Liu Erniu's artillery tower."

"But it took the Pingmu Battalion twenty minutes."

"Damn, this means that the Pingmu Brigade will arrive in Ping'an County in about half an hour."

"That's two o'clock in the afternoon."

"That's a full three hours earlier than I expected."

When Zhou Weimin heard Xu Hu's report, he frowned slightly and then cursed angrily.

"Commander, here's my plan."

No one had expected this situation, so Xu Hu spoke hurriedly.

"The plan has been made, and time doesn't allow us to change it, so the plan remains unchanged." Zhou Weimin thought for a moment and then continued, "I asked Zhou Liang to prepare the reception. Is it ready?"

Xu Hu shook his head and said, "I don't know yet, Commander."

"Go and ask, go now." Zhou Weimin said immediately.

"Yes!"

Xu Hu saluted and left.

About five minutes later.

"Commander, thankfully Zhou Liang prepared in advance."

After Xu Hu came back, he walked to Zhou Weimin and whispered.

"Well, I'll go find Nakamura Ryo first and tell him that Hiraki Yuta arrived early."

"You should also tell Wang Dali, Zhou Ming and the others this news."

After saying that, Zhou Weimin ignored Xu Hu and went to Nakamura Ryo's office alone.

"Zhou Sang, why are you here?"

When Nakamura Ryo saw Zhou Weimin coming over at this time, he asked curiously.

"Nakamura Ryo and Hiraki Yuta are on a forced march and will arrive at Heian County in about half an hour."

Zhou Weimin did not answer Nakamura Ryo, but spoke directly.

"Baga, this bastard noble actually forced a march during a non-combat period."

When Nakamura Ryo heard this, his face turned very ugly and he started cursing loudly.

"Nakamura Ryo, now is not the time to be angry. Hiraki Yuta arrived three hours earlier than we expected."

"So when does your Nakamura Brigade plan to leave Ping'an County?"

Zhou Weimin ignored Nakamura Ryo's anger and asked about what he cared about most.

According to the original plan, the Pingmu Brigade would arrive at Ping'an County at 5 pm, and the Zhongcun Brigade would leave Ping'an County at 6 pm.

But now the Pingmu Brigade has arrived three hours earlier, so when should the Nakamura Brigade leave Ping'an County?

"Baka, Baka," Nakamura Ryo continued to curse, then calmed down and continued, "Mr. Zhou, I need to leave Ping'an County early."

"Hiraki Yuta's hasty march must be for me. I don't want to have a conflict with Hiraki Yuta."

"I'm going to integrate the troops right now. I need to leave now."

When Zhou Weimin heard this, his face suddenly turned dark. This Nakamura Ryo is just a wimp.

"Nakamura Ryo, if your team leaves now, your troops should be on the train by the time my plan begins!"

Nakamura Ryo heard this and hesitated for a moment, but thinking of the faces of the local nobles, he said to Zhou Weimin: "Mr. Zhou, you can advance your plan."

"Impossible." Zhou Weimin said without any hesitation, and then began to persuade Nakamura Ryo.

"Nakamura Ryo, there's no time to change my plan. No matter when the Pingmu Brigade arrives, your team must leave Ping'an County at six o'clock."

"Your troops are the key to my plan."

"You can't have problems here. If you have problems here."

"There will be a lot of trouble after destroying the Pingmu Battalion."

"And if you leave now, I don't need to tell you what will happen to your transfer order!"

Ryo Nakamura stopped what he was doing and fell into thought. He really didn't dare to face Yuta Hiraki.

Ryo Nakamura has met Yuta Hiraki, and this person gives Ryo Nakamura the impression of a standard local aristocrat.

Extremely confident, arrogant, and unwilling to listen to advice...

Moreover, Ryo Nakamura knew very well that the reason why Yuta Hiraki was marching so quickly was to see him earlier.
