Japanese Army Headquarters in North China.

A major sergeant ran into the headquarters where Commander Okamura Ning died in a panic...

"Your Excellency, Commander...something big happened on the battlefield in southwestern Shanxi!"

At this time, Gangcun Ningsheng was still discussing with another Japanese major general about increasing troops on the battlefield in southwestern Shanxi.

Prepare to send another independent mixed brigade and three puppet military divisions there... Due to the disastrous defeat in the Battle of Shizhuang... Gangcun would rather die and want to find a place on the battlefield in southwest Shanxi.

It didn't matter. The two generals looked at each other in confusion.

"Nani?"

"What happened again on the battlefield in southwestern Shanxi?"

"Is it possible... Is it possible that our troops suffered a large-scale counterattack by the Central Army? Or?"

Gangcun Ningshi looked confused.

"Your Excellency, Commander...it's not the Central Army...but...it's the independent column!"

"The independent column of Jin Province! They have joined the battlefield in southwestern Shanxi... Moreover, the 21st Division is being attacked by them... It is already surrounded by regiments... General Tanaka Jiuyi said... They There are very few soldiers left in the army..."

"It is very likely that we will be annihilated by the independent column and the 9th Group Army of the Shanxi-Sui Army that they attacked before... Let us be careful of the independent column..."

The Japanese Major said in a hurry, with cold sweat all over his body. It was so fast... so fast that no one noticed the existence of the independent column, just like a ghost in the night sky... Slowly It will arrive behind you and give you a fatal blow.

"Bagaya Road...the independent column...when did they arrive at the battlefield in southwestern Shanxi...and when did Jiang Ruiyuan ask them to go to the battlefield in southwestern Shanxi?"

"What on earth is the intelligence department doing...such an important thing...we won't know until one of our divisions is annihilated..."

Gangcun Ning slapped the table as hard as he could, and the sharp blade of his ancestral sword kept showing...

He knows what kind of force the Independent Column is...it has already captured Shijiazhuang County with a small force...

In Jin Province, it was a massacre... There were almost no opponents. Hundreds of thousands of imperial soldiers in Jin Province died at the hands of the independent column...

Gangcun Ningshi quickly took the translated telegram...it didn't matter at first glance.

It read: Your Excellency Commander Gangcun would rather die. The independent column of Shanxi Province suddenly launched an attack on our department yesterday. They conducted several aircraft bombings on our department and killed one of our squadrons. At present, we have suffered heavy losses and only the remaining The next possible size of an infantry regiment, please Commander, please send troops to support us. Our 21st Division will persist to the end. Even if it is completely wiped out, it will never surrender!

This telegram also made Gangcun Ningshi start to sweat on his face...

Looking again, there is the firepower of this force faced by the 21st Division below...supported by dozens of aircraft...supported by hundreds of howitzers...and supported by hundreds of tanks and armored vehicles.

Seeing this, his head started to grow... If we say before, the reason why they were invincible on the battlefield in southwestern Shanxi was because of their strong discipline and weapons and equipment.

However, now there is a force on the battlefield that is stronger than them and has better weapons and equipment...

Moreover, one of the divisions on his side was about to be killed by the independent column.

Is it not uncomfortable for Tagang Village to rather die... This is a new force, a new force that can defeat his own troops!

"Damn... this independent column came to the battlefield in southwestern Shanxi silently... ruining our plan!"

"I originally thought that after the Central Army and the Jinsui Army were eliminated, the attack target would be changed to independent columns... I didn't expect that they would be so bold! Send troops to support... to stop us!"

"If... we don't dare to encircle and annihilate them at this time... then... what kind of Imperial Army of Japan are we..."

"Currently, what is the situation on other fronts? What is the performance of each unit?"

Gangcun Ningdie seems to have made some kind of determination...that is, the independent column must not stay, otherwise it will definitely become a serious problem for them!

"Your Excellency Commander... At present... part of the 33rd Division has also sent a telegram and was attacked by an unknown force... The division commander was killed... The rest of the troops have been dispersed, and most of the Yuanqu area has been rehabilitated. Take it back...."

The Japanese Major said hurriedly.

Gangcun Ningxing knew about this, but they didn't know at the time that the opposite was an independent column. If they had known, they would have sent the 35th Division and the 21st Division to directly encircle and annihilate them.... There would have been no The current ending of the 21st Division.

"The 34th Division is still near Jiyuan County... mopping up the Central Army... The current situation is good..."

"The 35th Division, the 37th Division, the 41st Division, and the Fourth and Ninth Independent Mixed Brigades have not been attacked by independent columns... They are in fierce battle with the local Central Army... As for that Several puppet troops...are responsible for supporting."

In fact, in the Dongxian area, the Japanese have occupied most of the areas. With the help of aircraft and artillery, they quickly reached the vicinity of the north bank... and an infantry regiment has already crossed the Qin River...

The Ninth Army of the Central Army is also retreating steadily... Fengmen, Qinyang and other places have been occupied, and are currently trying to advance from Fengmen to the north of Yuanqu... However, that is where the Second Division of the Independent Column is attacking place....

The Japanese 36th Division on the Western Front has captured the headquarters of the Fifth Army...and has captured the entire Tangwangshan position. Currently, all the Central Army is slowly retreating to Hujiayu...

In the northern area, the Second Division of the Independent Column is stepping up its offensive and has captured most of the towns in the Yuanqu area...

Most of the supply routes that were cut off before have been restored...but...there are still some places that have not been recovered, but it doesn't matter.
