Wang Ye wanted to deal with the Japanese 108th Division, and the Japanese also wanted to cause trouble for the Independent Brigade.

At the Suicheng 26th Division Headquarters, Kuroda Shigenori has been having trouble sleeping these days.

Their base had been surrounded by the Tubalu for three days, and more than 1000 shells had landed on their positions during those three days.

Before the Eighth Route Army launched a large-scale attack, they had lost more than 800 people, and the hospitals in the city were already crowded with wounded soldiers.

That was not all. The main force of the division was unable to return. The main force of nearly 8000 people had to go around Sandaying. Not only did it take three more days to walk, but it was also uncertain whether it could return by rail.

According to the Eighth Route Army's usual style, it would be impossible for them not to destroy the railway.

The Second Corps of the Puppet Mongolian Cavalry under his command was being chased everywhere by the armored vehicles of the Eighth Route Army. No one knew how many of them could make it to Suicheng for support.

"Commander, the cavalry group is calling!"

Kuroda Shigenori raised his head from his deep thoughts, his eyes were bloodshot, which showed how much pressure he had been under these days.

"What's the news about the cavalry group?"

The signalman didn't know what to say, so he hesitated and said, "How about you take a look yourself, Commander?"

Kuroda Shigenori suspected that he had heard it wrong. Was this the tone a subordinate used when speaking to his superior?

"Baga, do you want to die?"

The signalman put down the telegram tremblingly, turned around and ran out.

Kuroda Shigenori realized that something was wrong and picked up the telegram with a heavy heart.

"Bagayaru, what does Arima Ichiro do for a living?"

Kuroda Shigenori slammed his palm heavily on the solid wood desk, making a loud bang, and the guards outside the door subconsciously stood up straight.

The division chief of staff Shirogane Shigeji heard the noise and came over from the staff room next door. "Commander, what happened?"

Kuroda Shigeto replied in a low voice, "Mengbao fell, and the cavalry group led the Mengjiang Cavalry First Army north to Yanggu.

Arima Ichiro called us to ask for the next plan!"

"What? How did Mengbao fall?" Shirogane Shigeji was shocked, "Didn't they say that Arima Ichiro sent a cavalry regiment with a division of Mengjiang cavalry to intercept Tok's Tubalu?

How did they get from Toke to Mengbao in less than two days, and also drive Arima Ichiro to Yanggu?"

Kuroda Shigenori smiled bitterly, "Your Excellency Chief of Staff, I also want to know what went wrong here!"

At 12: that evening, Kuroda Shigenori and Shirogane Shigeji finally saw the details reported by Arima Ichiro. The two read the report as if they were reading a book written in heaven.

"Where did the Tubalu get so many armored vehicles and tanks? Their soldiers were all transferred by trucks, so where did they get the fuel?"

Shirogane Shigeji read it twice before saying, "Commander, although I don't want to believe this report, it is the most accurate version of the actual situation.

Otherwise, we have no way to explain how such a powerful cavalry group could be defeated so quickly! "

"No, we can't just let it go. I will report to the North China Command immediately. Since we have no way to get the Mongolian bag back in a short time,

Then let the North China Command send a flight regiment to bomb all the industrial areas. Don't leave them to the local guerrillas.

They have become so powerful that a single division cannot match them!"

Kuroda Shigenori said with a dark face, his voice revealing reluctance and viciousness.

Baiyin Chong'er didn't say anything, he also thought this method was good.

In Peking, in the middle of the night, Okamura was pulled out of bed by a staff officer from the General Staff.

"Baga, you'd better have something special to report, or I'll make you clean the toilet!"

"Commander Okamura, General Shigenori Kuroda, the commander of the Mongolian Army, has called urgently!

Mengbao had been occupied by the Tubalu, and he requested the headquarters to send out the flying regiment to bomb the Mengbao industrial zone.

Okamura took the telegram and cursed while reading it, "Kuroda Shigenori and his idiots actually lost the Mongolian bag, why didn't he lose Suicheng as well?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chief of Staff Yukio Kasahara came running over, his clothes not even properly put on.

"Commander, I heard that something happened to the Mongolian Army?"

Okamura handed over the telegram, "Mengbao has been lost, and our Sui Province strategy has been hindered!"

After reading the telegram, Yukio Kasahara shouted, "Blow it up, we must blow it up. Even if we can't use it, we can't leave it to the Eighth Route Army!"

Okamura picked up the phone and called the Peking Airport, ordering the flying regiment to take out at dawn the next day and to make sure to bomb all the industrial areas in Mengbao, and it would be best if they could also send the Eighth Route Army stationed in Mengbao into the air.

"By the way, what's going on with the 108th Division? I've issued the order three days ago, why is there no movement yet?"

Yukio Kasahara replied, "Commander, the supplies of the 109th Division were only delivered to the 108th Division this afternoon.

At night, the 108th Division has arranged a regiment to rush to Yu County as a vanguard. The entire 108th Division will be deployed at dawn tomorrow.

According to our intelligence, the 2000st Regiment of the Eighth Route Army Independent Brigade is currently stationed in Yu County, with a total strength of only about people.

I believe that the 108th Division will be able to seize Yu County at lightning speed."

"Soga! Order the 108th Division to advance at full speed. At the same time, keep the radio open and report any progress!"

When Okamura said this, he suddenly thought of the 26th Division. "Where is the main force of the 26th Division now?"

Kasahara Yukio thought for a while before saying, "The two main regiments of the 26th Division and the Second Mongolian Cavalry Army have already arrived at Sandaoying.

I have ordered the two battalions of the 2nd Independent Mixed Brigade stationed in Zhangkou to rush over and join them.

After they meet up, they will head towards Suicheng along the Pingbao Railway!"

"How long can Suicheng hold out?" Okamura was very worried about Kuroda Shigenori. The empire had just lost 20 divisions and could not afford to lose another star general.

Kasahara Yukio said casually as if he had seen through the Independent Brigade's plan.

"The Eighth Route Army probably wanted to surround the city and attack the reinforcements. After the independent brigade surrounded Suicheng, they attacked every day, but the intensity of the attack was not great.

I think their main target should be the main force of the division that came back to support them, so I dispatched three battalions from the 2nd Independent Mixed Brigade to provide support."

"Kasahara-kun did a good job. Let them return for reinforcements faster. I'm worried that the next target of the Eighth Route Army will be Suicheng."

"Hey!"

All parties were mobilizing their troops that night. Far away in the Wuyuan 35th Army Headquarters in Suixi, Fu Yisheng also got up in the middle of the night.

"Commander, a telegram from Commander Tan of the 114th Division!"

"Why is Patrick Tam not sleeping so late at night? What happened?" Fu Yisheng was very unhappy.

"The 114th Division was attacked by the Eighth Route Army seven miles west of Mengbao and has now retreated to Butuo.

Moreover, the Eighth Route Army has already entered Dashikou Town, and they should be keeping an eye on the 114th Division!"

"What?" Fu Yisheng, who was a little confused, suddenly woke up. "You just said that the Eighth Route Army attacked the 114th Division. Why did they fight? Weren't they asked to negotiate?"
