If the Fourth Artillery Company had not guarded Shexian City and relying solely on the troops of the Independent Regiment, Liu Gan and the others would not have dared to run so far.

Well, this is mainly to prevent the Japanese who were not discovered and took the county town away in a roundabout way.

Fortunately, the worries didn't happen. The Japanese were just those Japanese. They had no extra troops to interweave the mountains, and everything went smoothly.

The smooth result was that all the invading Japanese were wiped out on the mountain and none of them ran back.

"Your Excellency Commander, this is the war report I just sent. We sent to retake the troops in Shexian County and lost contact at noon. After repeated confirmation and the secret work of senior military agents, we finally confirmed that all these troops had died in the east of Shexian County!"

The person who said this was the Chief of Staff of the First Army, Jie Yuan Xuanyi, and the location was the First Army Command in Taiyuan City.

"I understand, let it go! Since I took office, I have been receiving all kinds of bad news. I originally wanted to have a good news for me, but I was disappointed again!" Yoshio Shinozuka stood up as he spoke, then lowered his head and took off his military cap, and stood silently in silence.

Seeing Shinozuka's actions, Jie Yuan also took off his hat and observed silently.

"I gave this order. I misjudged the strength of the Eighth Route Army. I want to pay personal tribute to these broken soldiers!" said Shinozuka.

"Your Excellency Commander, isn't this right? They just fulfilled the responsibility of a soldier, and you..." Jie Yuan blocked.

"You have to understand that they are all loyal to the Emperor underground! If we senior officers die in battle, they will be placed in a sacred toilet and worshipped (all understand), but they may not! Therefore, these soldiers also need to pay tribute!" said Shinozuka.

"Okay! Then how should we carry out our next action? The security war in North China has been going on for several months. Should we continue?" Jie Yuan asked.

"It's over! In fact, since Licheng was recaptured by the Eighth Route Army yesterday, I knew that this security battle was about to end! I originally planned to occupy Shexian as the node for the next attack, but the Eighth Route Army's combat power was too unexpected to me!" said Shinozuka.

"Yes, these Eighth Route Army Groups are said to be the allergic government only sends them a small amount of military pay and does not have military uniforms, so don't mention food and ammunition supplies! They wear ragged clothes, hold guns that will be broken at any time, and even weapons from the cold weapon era are used by them to fight!"

"As far as I know, they do not have sufficient logistics supplies, and the soldiers spend most of their time not having enough food, and even only have two meals a day!"

"But this army that is not as good as beggars has blocked the encirclement of tens of thousands of us, and has even caused us small-scale war losses! These war losses seem to be small, but they are a surprising number under accumulation!"

"And this time... they fought such a battle..."

"In the past, we also launched large-scale battles on the battlefields in the south and east. Although we had more troops at that time, we faced a relatively regular army of their country, and the number of people was much larger than that of the Eighth Route Army!"

"Just like you are on the battlefield in Wuhan, we are moving forward step by step! Every time we occupy a place, it will become our territory, rather than being taken back like now..." Jie Yuan didn't say anything again.

"Yes, the place we occupied was taken back again. It was not the same place, but more than a dozen county towns! The gap!"

"There is actually a reason behind this! Because the people leading this team are different, they are really fighting for this country and nation! This is an analysis report made by our intelligence department."

"In fact, the Chinese are not inferior nations, but nations that once stood noble on the top of the world! Such nations are very terrible because they have historical and cultural heritage that no other nations do not have, and countless unknown capable people and patriots!"

"And once these people have the right guidance and direction, they will emit incredible power!"

"Okay, this is not the topic I'm talking about today. You can arrange the memorial service! Is Yamamoto Ichiki back?" asked Shinozuka.

"I'm back, I just arrived at the military headquarters to report at noon!" said Jie Yuan.

"Then call him here. I want to talk to him before the memorial service!" said Shinozuka.

"Hayi!" Jie Yuan went out

Yamamoto Ichiki walked in quickly, but judging from his slightly unstable lower plate, the injury on his foot had not healed yet.

"Commander, Yamamoto Ichiki reported to you!" Yamamoto Station straightened his body and greeted a standard military salute.

"Sit down and talk!" Shinozuka said lightly.

"Hayi!" Yamamoto put a chair next to him straight and sat straight on the chair, but only half of the area.

"Yamamoto, I have to say, you are a lucky guy! You should have heard of the battle situation in Southeast Jin, right? Just a few days after you left, there was an attack and it was taken down yesterday! At the same time, Licheng and Shexian were also taken back."

"Tell me, what do you think of the changes in this battle situation?" Shinozuka asked with a gentle smile.

"Mr. Commander, although I have been busy on the road these days, I still have some understanding of the battle situation this time! I was still thinking about this question before I came in."

"I think there are many reasons for this ending. Internal reasons, the number of troops we can use is getting less and less, and the quality of soldiers is getting lower and lower. This is one of them. As for external reasons, there are many!"

"Apart from the mountainous terrain in southeastern Shanxi, which is not conducive to military combat, we have never found important targets of the Eighth Route Army to fight, and we are often fighting against units such as guerrillas that are not important to them."

"In addition to this, there are many reasons..." Yamamoto Ichiki began to tell the problems he learned one by one.

"You can find so many reasons, that's great! But now it's not about finding the reasons, but how to solve these problems after finding the reasons? Since you have returned from your studies, is there any way to solve them?" Shinozuka went straight to the topic.
