Liangjian signed in for three years and became the invincible god of war

Chapter 269 The difference in strength is huge!

Kotaro Yamada gritted his teeth in hatred, but there was nothing he could do. It was already like this, and it was too late to say anything.

Now the old devil can only hope that their infantry unit can rush to Lishugou as soon as possible, and rescue all the little devil's cavalry regiment that was ambushed.

Kotaro Yamada stared at the map, his dog eyes were about to pop out, his eyes were bloodshot, like an enraged mad dog, bared its teeth and wanted to bite someone.

But now he, an old devil, can only be anxious.

Kotaro Yamada gritted his teeth and said, "Immediately send a telegram to Saburo Sato, asking them to keep in touch and report the situation to us in time."

"Hay!"

A devil officer next to him responded quickly and turned around to convey the order.

At this time, a ghost staff officer ran over and said, "Report to your Excellency, the commander of the division, and the cavalry regiment reported that they suffered heavy losses."

"The captain of the cavalry regiment, Sato Saburo, was shattered during the battle."

"Nani?"

Kotaro Yamada couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise. After all, Saburo Sato is the captain of the cavalry regiment, with the rank of Colonel, which belongs to senior officers.

He was beaten to death, and he was killed so easily.

Such a result was really hard for Kotaro Yamada to accept.

So Kotaro Yamada was completely dumbfounded.

The devil who reported said respectfully: "Hayi!"

"His Excellency Saburo Sato was hit in the head by a stray bullet during the battle, and the jade was shattered on the spot."

Blue veins suddenly appeared on Kotaro Yamada's face, and his eyeballs seemed to get bigger again.

"Bagaya Deer!"

"This idiot is simply a fool."

A devil officer next to him hurriedly persuaded him, "Your Excellency, division chief, please calm down. This is just an accident."

Kotaro Yamada roared angrily: "What a shitty accident, it happened because this guy is too stupid."

"The terrain of Lishugou is dangerous, can't they be more careful?"

"There are more than 1000 people in the entire alliance, and they have all entered the enemy's encirclement. Now even the captain of the alliance has been killed by them. It is really unreasonable."

"The face of the imperial army has been completely lost by this idiot."

At this time, a devil commander next to him asked the devil's staff officer, "How is the current situation of the cavalry regiment?"

This devil boss is the chief of staff of the Yamada Division, and he is much calmer than Kotaro Yamada at this time.

Sato Saburo is dead, and he will die when he dies. It is useless to say anything now.

The most important thing at present is the cavalry regiment.

Hearing this, Yamada Kotaro also calmed down instantly, only to remember that the cavalry regiment was still under siege from the Eighth Route within the encirclement.

The devil's staff officer replied honestly: "According to their report, the current situation of the cavalry regiment is very dangerous."

"More than half of them have been lost. The Eight Routes ambushing them not only occupy a favorable terrain, but also have several times their troops, and their firepower is quite fierce."

"They are powerless to resist. Now that the troops have given up attacking and breaking through, they can only hide in some hidden places in the valley and continue to resist."

"The Cavalry Wing asks our division to give us emergency tactical guidance, otherwise, the entire Cavalry Wing may be destroyed."

Hearing this, Kotaro Yamada became even more furious.

Now Saburo Sato is dead, and they have lost a lot of troops.

If the entire cavalry regiment was wiped out, then his crime would be serious.

Thinking of this, Kotaro Yamada was finally afraid.

What he was afraid of was not the complete annihilation of the cavalry regiment.

In fact, he was afraid that his future would be ruined.

After all, an alliance was completely wiped out. Such a stain, even if he was not punished, would be enough to ruin his promotion path.

After all, he is already a lieutenant general in the army now, and the higher he goes, the more difficult it will be.

Among the little devils, the highest rank is the general, and the lieutenant general is already considered an absolute high-level.

However, there is a huge gap between lieutenant general and lieutenant general.

Basically, those with the rank of lieutenant general can hold most of the senior positions.

The lieutenant general and division head is only the lowest rank, and the lieutenant general can also serve as the commander of the army and the commander of the front army.

It is even possible to hold the position of the Army's Big Three such as the Secretary of the Army.

Therefore, the little devils who can be promoted to lieutenant general are absolutely high-level.

But how far you can go in the end depends on your own ability.

And the higher you go, the harder it gets.

Of course, there are generals above the lieutenant general.

However, it is several times more difficult to be promoted to general than to be promoted to general.

It is impossible for a person like Kotaro Yamada to have no idea about the general.

But if you want to be promoted to a general in the war years, you need to have outstanding military exploits.

On the other hand, if you are burdened with taint, it is basically impossible to be promoted to general.

Moreover, a cavalry regiment was wiped out, such a crime was enough for him to go around.

Otherwise, he would be sent to a court-martial.

Once on the court-martial, the best result is to be ordered to retire.

Once he retires with such a big stain, it means that his military career is completely over.

Although due to the outbreak of the war, the scale is getting bigger and bigger, and the little devils are constantly expanding their troops.

As a result, many retired officers and senior generals were all re-conscripted into the army.

For example, Iwane Matsui and Hirasuke Yanagawa were re-conscripted after retiring from the military.

But they were retired in peacetime, normally, or because of internal factional struggles.

So they have a chance to be re-drafted.

And if he, Kotaro Yamada, was ordered to retire with such a big stain.

There is no way he will be re-drafted again.

(The highest military rank of a devil is general, and there is a marshal's mansion above the general, and if you are in the marshal's mansion, you are a marshal.

But field marshal is not an official rank.

Marshal is equivalent to an honorary title, which can be regarded as a false position.

But the marshal of this little devil has a very high gold content.

Only those generals and admirals who have made great achievements in battle can enter the marshal's mansion and become marshals.

In the past few decades, among the generals of the army and navy of the little devil, less than one-tenth of them can become marshals. )
Kotaro Yamada's face became increasingly ugly.

The old devil yelled loudly: "Immediately send an order to rescue the cavalry regiment for me at all costs."

"In any case, the Cavalry Wing must not make any mistakes."

"Otherwise, I will let them be buried with the cavalry regiment!"

"Hay!"

A devil officer next to him responded quickly and turned around to convey the order.

The little devils present at the moment also became more honest, and they didn't even dare to breathe.

The more Kotaro Yamada thought about it, the angrier he became, and the anger in his heart had nowhere to vent.

The old devil suddenly pulled out his saber, and slashed fiercely on the table.

With a "click", the corner of the table was easily chopped off.

The two little devils who were close to each other trembled in fright, as if they were afraid that they would be slashed on their bodies with the next knife.

At this moment, Kotaro Yamada seems to have lost his mind, who knows what this division commander will do.

……

Dongquan Town!
Lin Rui stood at the gate of the stronghold and shouted loudly, "Take everything you can take away."

"Then blow up all the gun towers."

"Yes!"

The soldiers responded loudly.

Lin Rui took the opportunity to capture Dongquan Town with his soldiers.

There are also a lot of good things in the stronghold in the town, and Lin Rui and the others took the opportunity to get a lot of benefits.

However, Lin Rui and the others had limited troops after all, and in order not to affect the march of the troops, it was impossible to take away too many supplies.

Lin Rui could only order that dozens of fighters be selected to escort a batch of trophies, and leave Dongquan Town on the mountain path first.

And Lin Rui led the rest of the people to stay in Dongquan Town to contain the little devil.

At this time, a soldier ran over quickly and said loudly: "Report to the boss, the vanguard of the little devil is less than three miles away from Dongquan Town."

"It's pretty fast!"

Lin Rui sneered and said, "Have all the three little devils arrived?"

The soldier quickly said: "The fastest route is only three miles away, and the other two routes are about five miles away."

The little devil's infantry consisted of about 5000 people, and they were divided into three groups and approached Dongquan Town.

The three-way little devils are also fast and slow, but the devils are also well prepared, so the difference is not too big.

The distance of three to five miles, even for infantry, is within a blink of an eye.

But Lin Rui is not too worried, all this is in Lin Rui's plan.

At this time, Monk Wei said: "Boss, according to your instructions, we have already placed some mines outside the town."

"However, due to the rush of time, the number of mines deployed is not many, and they are relatively simple."

"It can delay them for a few minutes at most."

Lin Rui said indifferently: "It's okay, as long as we can last until we take all the spoils away."

"Tell Huzi, tell them to speed up, bring these trophies into the mountain as soon as possible, and then make a detour back to the base area."

"Yes!"

A soldier next to him quickly responded, and turned around to convey the order.

Lin Rui turned to Monk Wei and said, "Send the order, and everyone is ready to fight."

"Yes!"

Monk Wei quickly responded, and then said: "Boss, you can rest assured."

"Brothers have been ready for a long time, this time we must have a good time with these bastards."

Lin Rui smiled and said, "Dongquan Town is quite a good place. It is backed by a mountain, and the enemy army is very powerful. There are more than 5000 people."

"Our strength is naturally not their opponent."

"But it's okay to have fun with them."

At this time, Peng ran over and said, "Report to the boss, the people in the town have all evacuated."

Lin Rui smiled and said, "It's safe in this way."

"We can let go of our hands and feet and have a good fight with the little devil."

"According to the time calculation, the head of the group has already taken action, and Kotaro Yamada may have already got the news."

"It is estimated that at this moment, their infantry can no longer take care of us. They have to rush to rescue their cavalry regiment."

Monk Wei said with a smile: "Dongquan Town is the only way for them to rescue the cavalry regiment."

"With us here, the little devil can't easily pass through Dongquan Town."

Lin Rui nodded slightly and said, "That's right, we're going to delay them for a while."

"Buy enough time for the group leader and the others."

At this time, Staff Officer Zhao ran over.

Lin Rui quickly asked: "How is the head and the others?"

Staff Officer Zhao said: "Most of the little devils have been wiped out, only a few remnants of the enemy are left, and they are fighting stubbornly."

"The head of the regiment sent a telegram to inquire about the situation on our side."

Lin Rui said hastily: "Call the leader back and tell us that we are preparing to snipe the little devil in Dongquan Town."

"Please rest assured, we will spare no effort to buy enough time for them."

"Yes!"

Staff Officer Zhao quickly responded, and turned around to convey the order.

The telegram was quickly sent to Li Yunlong and the others.

The operator immediately delivered the telegram to Li Yunlong.

After reading the telegram, Li Yunlong said: "This shows that the main force of the little devil has already approached Dongquan Town."

"Although Lin Rui and the others are powerful, they only have a few hundred people after all."

"And what they are facing this time is 4000 little devils, and about [-] of them are the field elite infantry regiment of the Kwantung Army of a little devil."

"With the strength of a mere battalion, against an elite regiment of little devils, not to mention there are more than 1000 other little devils to assist in the battle."

"The strength of the two sides is very different, and they are likely to encounter danger."

"So our side must end the fighting as soon as possible and evacuate from Lishugou as soon as possible."

"Once our side retreats, Lin Rui and the others won't have any worries, and they can withdraw from Dongquan Town at any time."

Xing Zhiguo nodded and said, "That's right, then we have to deal with these remnants as soon as possible."

"Humph!"

Li Yunlong snorted coldly, and said: "These idiots still want to hold on until the reinforcements arrive, that's wishful thinking."

"Let them see how powerful we are today."

"Immediately send an order to launch a charge for Lao Tzu."

"Rush straight down and kill them."

"Yes!"

Following Li Yunlong's order, six signal flares rose again from the top of the mountain.

With the signal bomb soared into the air.

The loud and clear charge horns came to mind one after another.

The buglers of each battalion and company, seeing the signal flare, all blew their charging horns without hesitation.

"Tick tick tick tick tick ~!"

The loud charging horn immediately resounded through the entire Lishugou.

"Kill it!"

Then the loud shouts of killing sounded, and the brave soldiers rushed out of their positions one after another, like tigers descending the mountain, rushing towards the enemy down the mountain.

Zhang Dabiao is also extremely brave.

I saw Zhang Dabiao holding a Czech-style light machine gun in his arms, and roared loudly: "Brothers, go with me and kill these bastards."

"Kill it!"

As he said that, he rushed out first.
