Spy Wars: Get the Predator equipment at the beginning

When the Japanese high-ranking officials were meeting in the conference room, a combat staff officer rushed in.

"Bagayashi, we are in a meeting now, who let you break in?" An officer said angrily to the Japanese staff officer who broke in.

The Japanese staff officer hurriedly reported: "I'm sorry, Major, something big has happened and I have to report it!"

"Let him come over!" Sano Tadayoshi shouted.

"Hayi!"

The operations officer immediately walked over and stood at attention, saying, "Your Excellency, the two regiments sent by the 229th and 230th Brigades to reinforce the new area have been driven back. Our troops have suffered heavy losses, and morale has plummeted!"

"Baka!" The commander of the 229th Brigade was furious when he heard this.

Upon hearing the news, the commander of the 230th Brigade gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, but he could do nothing.

The muscles on Sano Tadayoshi's face trembled, and he waved to the operations staff: "You go down!"

"Hayi!"

The conference room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Two minutes later, Sano Tadayoshi looked at the intelligence officer and said, "I hope the intelligence department will do everything they can in the next few days to find out all the information about the merchant group's armed forces and Zhang Yunhe on the other side. It would be best to figure out their military deployment!"

The intelligence officer immediately stood up and bowed his head and said, "Ha Yi!"

Sano Tadayoshi then said to the communications officer, "Connect me to the 23rd Army Headquarters. I want to speak to the Commander-in-Chief!"

"Hayi!"

The call was made in the conference room in front of all the participants. After the call was connected, the communications officer immediately signaled to Tadayoshi Sano.

Walking to the phone, Sano Tadayoshi picked up the phone. After a few seconds, he heard the voice of Tanaka, commander of the 23rd Army, coming from the phone: "Sano-kun?"

Sano Tadayoshi immediately stood at attention and said respectfully, "Yes, sir!"

"I'm very busy. Tell me, what do you want to talk to me about?" Tanaka said on the phone.

Sano Tadayoshi said carefully, "There was an unexpected incident with the surrender of the Westerners on the island. Governor Yang clearly signed the surrender document, but an armed merchant group on the island disobeyed orders. Our troops sent to recover prisoners, weapons, equipment, ammunition, and territory were beaten back. We have suffered heavy losses. Two brigades are trapped in the new area. The situation is not optimistic."

"This mistake was caused by our lack of intelligence. We originally only had a merchant group, but we didn't expect them to have over 10,000 soldiers. Their weapons and equipment were even better than the imperial soldiers, with a lot of artillery. Moreover, this time they deployed 10 fighter planes and 10 bombers, as well as artillery equivalent to an entire artillery brigade. We..."

On the other end of the phone, Tanaka was silent for a few seconds before asking, "How much is the loss?"

Sano Tadayoshi swallowed hard and said, "Two regiments each from the 229th and 230th Brigades are trapped in the new district. The remaining two infantry regiments were intercepted by the armed forces of the merchant corps on the other side while on their way to reinforce. They were bombed and forced to retreat. If we can't find a way to get the two trapped regiments out, I'm afraid they will all be destroyed within a day!"

Tanaka asked, "How many troops do you have available now?"

"Except for the artillery regiment and the cavalry regiment, there are less than 3,000 people who can be sent out to fight. The 228th Brigade needs to guard against the enemy in the west and cannot be withdrawn!" Sano Tadayoshi said honestly.

The person on the other end of the phone thought for a moment and said, "Use all the artillery in your artillery regiment, spare no ammunition, and blast a passage for the four trapped regiments. Pay attention to timing and coordination!"

"If it really doesn't work, call me again and have them use the existing bunkers, strongholds, and positions to hold on tenaciously. I'll coordinate with the Air Force Command to have them dispatch more fighter jets, but this will take time!"

"Tell the warriors to hold out for 24 hours. Then a large number of Army Air Force fighter planes and bombers will arrive to reinforce us!"

"Hayi, thank you for the tactical guidance, Commander!" Sano Tadayoshi quickly stood at attention again and said.

After hanging up the phone, he returned to the conference table and said to everyone, "Commander Tanaka has given us tactical guidance. He wants us to use all the artillery in the artillery regiment to forcibly blast a retreat route for the four trapped regiments. Before implementing this, we must communicate with the commanders of each regiment to agree on a time and order of retreat!"

"What do you think?"

The commander of the 229th Brigade said, "This method may be the only feasible solution at the moment!"

Sano Tadayoshi looked at the artillery regiment commander and asked, "Is there a problem with the artillery regiment?"

The artillery regiment commander stood up and said, "Your Excellency, this plan is indeed a good one, but it must be implemented at night!"

"Why? Can't it be done during the day?" an officer couldn't help but ask.

The artillery commander felt a headache. He had seen many stupid people, but never anyone as stupid as this. He said, "Your Excellency, the enemy has air superiority right now. As long as we use our artillery regiment, they will definitely send out fighter planes and bombers to strafe and bomb us. They have already sent out reconnaissance planes many times in the past few days, just to find our artillery regiment's location!"

"Once the artillery regiment opens fire, its position will inevitably be exposed. Then, not only will we be targeted by their artillery, but also by their aviation. Only at night, when their fighters and bombers cannot take off, will it be difficult for their troops to determine the exact location of our artillery regiment. It is safest for the artillery regiment to relocate after the attack, so that they cannot find our exact location!"

The other Japanese officers nodded after hearing the words of the artillery regiment commander.

At this time, Chief of Staff Sulin Zhongdao raised a question: "The question is whether the four trapped regiments can hold out until dark. You have to know that it is still three hours away from dark, and in the past hour, several regiments on the front line have repeatedly called and sent telegrams reporting heavy casualties and low ammunition!"

Sano Tadayoshi gritted his teeth and said, "There's no other way now. We can only let the four trapped regiments hold on. Contact the four regiment commanders and have them hold on until dark. After dark, the artillery regiments will fire and then withdraw from the artillery channel one by one!"

Upon hearing this, the commander of the 229th Brigade sighed, "This is the only way!"

The command hall of the Merchant Corps Armed Command.

Zhang Yunhe folded his arms beside the sand table, observing the enemy and our own situation. He then looked at the time on his watch and said, "The attack is still not fast or fierce enough. Pass on my order to send out the armored regiment and have them cooperate with the other troops in the offensive!"

"Also, order the pilots to send out fighter planes and bombers to sweep and bomb the enemy strongholds, bunkers, and defensive positions three times. We must eliminate all the enemy trapped in the new area before dark!"

"Yes, sir!"

"Ding-ling-ling..." A phone next to me rang.

A staff officer picked up the phone and listened for a moment before covering the receiver and shouting, "Sir, Governor Yang, Commander Modpi, and everyone in the Governor's Office have all been captured by the Japanese regiment that broke into the city center. Now about a battalion of Japanese soldiers are entrenched in the Governor's Office, threatening our lives and demanding we lay down our arms and surrender. Third Regiment Commander Gu Dalei called and asked what to do."
