Hearing the violent explosion that shook the mountains outside and seemed to destroy the world, the old devil was so frightened that he didn't even care to wear his shoes and coat, so he quickly ran to his headquarters to find out the situation.
The headquarters had already had a devil staff officer on duty, who was really anxious like an ant on a hot pot. It was winter, but sweat couldn't stop oozing from his forehead.
Seeing Takeda Jiang approaching, the devil's staff officer immediately raised his hand to salute: "Your Excellency, something is wrong, the south gate of the city has been violently bombarded by unknown armed forces!"
On the way here, Wu Tianjiang had already tasted how terrifying the enemy's artillery fire was from the violent explosion and the soaring flames.
So he immediately ordered with a low voice: "The enemy must have learned that Pingshun County is short of troops and wants to take this opportunity to capture this place!
Immediately report this situation to Taiyuan and request to mobilize reinforcements!
In addition, quickly mobilize all the defensive forces in the city, rush to the south gate of the city, and guard the gate no matter what, and never let the enemy invade! "
The adjutant of the staff at the side said with a serious face: "Your Excellency, please forgive me, judging from the movement in the south of the city, the attacking enemy army must be strong, and it is definitely not an ordinary Chinese army!
There was information before that the Huben regiment was entrenched in the Lingchuan area to recuperate.
Since this enemy army can so cleverly seize the gap between the 4th Independent Cavalry Regiment and Tenchuan Regiment going out of the city to help Changzhi Airport, it must be the Huben Regiment of Lingchuan!
Judging from previous battles, even the tens of thousands of imperial troops are not the opponents of the Huben Regiment. Only with more than 1000 imperial troops in the city, plus more than 2000 unusable Imperial Association troops, they want to deal with Yang Chen's Huben Regiment , Undoubtedly hitting a stone with an egg.
Therefore, Beizhi suggested that before the county is surrounded, we might as well give up Pingshun and retreat towards Licheng.
Judging from previous battles, the Huben regiment is only good at offense and mountain defense.
This kind of city defense battle is something they are not good at.
As long as we preserve our vitality, when reinforcements arrive, combined with the superiority of the imperial army's ground-to-air firepower, we can not only take back here in one fell swoop, but even wipe out the Huben Regiment! "
Unexpectedly, as soon as the devil's staff finished speaking, Takeda Jiang, who was burning with anger, slapped him hard, and roared very angrily: "Ba Ga! You are so stupid!
I am brave and unparalleled in the Imperial Japanese Army. When have I ever been afraid?
Furthermore, Pingshun County is a strategic location in the southeast of Shanxi, and it is also the frontier fortress where the imperial army confronted the Chinese army in the southeast of Shanxi. How could it be abandoned like this?
Do you want me to be a sinner of the empire?
and also……"

Chapter 1000 Yoshio Shinozuka's Worries
"and also!"
Takeda Jin continued to shout: "Don't forget, the 4th Independent Cavalry Regiment and Tenchuan Regiment rushed to the Changzhi Airport with light equipment, and their supplies are still stored in Pingshun County.
These materials are related to the war situation in the entire southeast of Shanxi. Do you want me to destroy all these materials, or leave them to the Chinese troops outside the south gate? "
The devil's staff officer took a solid slap, covered his hot left cheek, and immediately bowed his head to admit his mistake: "Haye! Your Excellency, the captain of the regiment, taught you that the humble job knows its mistakes!"
Probably because of two teeth being slapped out, the devil's chief of staff spoke a little leaky and slurred at this time.
"Hurry up and execute the order! Tell the garrison in the city that if you can't defend the south gate, you should apologize to His Majesty the Emperor by harakiri!"
"Haye!"
The devil's staff officer hurriedly bowed his head, and immediately took orders to leave.
……
The scene zooms to Shanxi, the headquarters of the Japanese First Army.
Historically, Hata Shunroku was originally the commander-in-chief of the Battle of Zhongtiao Mountain.
But this time and space was replaced by Yoshio Shinozuka, the commander of the First Army.
At this time, although it was more than ten o'clock in the middle of the night, Changzhi Airport was attacked by the 358th Regiment, which made Yoshio Shinozuka unable to sleep at all, and stayed in his headquarters all the time.
In particular, in the past nearly an hour, he has been unable to get in touch with the airport, which makes the old devil even more worried.
Between the furrowed brows, there was a look of worry.
"Have you contacted the airport?"
In just a few minutes, Shinozuka Yoshio had asked this question several times, and the communications staff still didn't dare to neglect, and quickly lowered his head to respond: "Report to Your Excellency, General, not yet."
"What about the 4th Cavalry Regiment, Tenchuan Regiment, and Xiaoshan Regiment?"
"nor."
"Bagaya Road!"
Annoyed, Shinozuka Yoshio swiped his right hand violently, and the water glasses, pens and ink, and documents on the conference table in front of him were scattered all over the ground in an instant.
Among them, the ceramic water cup fell to pieces with a "pop".
In the headquarters, all the devil's staff officers were so frightened that their chrysanthemums tightened up and trembled.
"Continue to generate electricity for me, and be sure to contact the airport!"
"Haye!"
The communications staff officer nodded abruptly.
At this moment, the telegraph next to it suddenly beeped continuously, attracting everyone's attention.
After a while, the devil communicator in front of the telegraph machine took off his earphones, picked up a translated message and stood up abruptly.
Yoshio Shinozuka hurriedly asked, "Is it a telegram from Changzhi Airport?"
"Report to Your Excellency the General, no."
At this time, Shinozuka Yoshio had already sensed something bad from the communication soldier's heavy face, and couldn't help but "thump" in his heart.
Sure enough, the communications soldiers came one after another, which verified his guess.
"This is an urgent telegram from Pingshun, which states that the county seat is being attacked by unknown armed forces.
According to speculation, this unknown armed force is most likely the Huben regiment entrenched in the Lingchuan area.
Their artillery fire was extremely fierce, even comparable to the firepower of an artillery wing of the Imperial Army.
Pingshun is in jeopardy, request the headquarters to send troops for reinforcements immediately! "
After listening, Yoshio Shinozuka's heart sank to the bottom of the valley.
He had already expected that this would be bad news, but he never expected it to be such a big bad news.
