"Your Excellency, Division Commander! Something bad has happened!"

"It's the elite reinforcements of the Chinese Army that have arrived! Many Chinese Army troops have invaded from the north gate of Teng County! One of our tanks and chariot squadrons, as well as a brigade of troops, were all defeated by the opponent in a short period of time.

Annihilated!"

"Please give me your instructions, Division Commander!"

Just after Liu Feiyang's T34-85 main battle tank wiped out the Japanese's Douding tank squadron, the Japanese communications officer Nitta Makensuke panicked and ran to the commander of Isotani Rensuke's division to make a report.

"Baga! What!"

"Are there any elite Chinese troops at the north gate?"

"Where did they come from? Haven't we almost wiped out all the Chinese troops in Teng County? Moreover, the large forces of the Chinese troops are still being defeated by our imperial army somewhere on the periphery, and they are retreating.

Why are there still elites from the Chinese army coming to help?"

"Speak clearly to me!"

After hearing this, the leader of the Isoya Renjie division was stunned for a moment in confusion, and then said angrily.

"Your Excellency, Division Commander! I don't know either!"

"It's still early in the morning and it's not completely bright yet!"

"Perhaps the troops near the Chinese Army broke through the blockade of our Imperial Army and came to the north gate of Teng County to come in for support!"

Japanese communications officer Nitta Makensuke was uneasy and continued to report.

He was very worried about whether the furious leader of the Isoya Renji division would deal with him as the person who reported the bad news.

"Bagaya road!"

"Send a large army to me immediately. I will kill all these damned Chinese troops who came to support us!"

"I want them all to die, die!"

"How dare you annihilate a squadron of my tanks and an infantry brigade!"

"Bagaya Road! Damn it!"

After hearing this, the leader of the Isoya Renjie division became angry again and roared.

"Hai!"

...

After being scolded again by the commander of the Isoya Renji division, the Japanese communications officer Nitta Masakisuke quickly agreed,

Then he was ready to run away to carry out the order.

"Hey! Wait a minute!"

But before the Japanese communications officer Nitta Makensuke could run far away, the commander of the Isoya Rensuke Division stopped him with an extremely indifferent expression.

"Ah! Your Excellency, Division Commander! Any other orders?"

Being stopped by the commander of the Isoya Renji division, the Japanese communications officer Nitta Makenyu was so frightened that his legs went weak.

"How did the China Army you just mentioned annihilate so many of our troops so quickly, and how did they annihilate all our tank squadrons? Did they all use grenades and explosive packs to bomb our tanks and vehicles?

"

However, the leader of Isoya Renjie Division did not pay attention to his fearful expression and continued to ask.

"It's because the weapons and equipment used by these elites of the China Army are completely different from those of other China Army. They not only have tank troops, but also anti-tank weapons and equipment! And their strength is no less than that of a brigade.

,so......"

"This is how the battle is going! Your Excellency, Division Commander!"

Japanese communications officer Nitta Makensuke replied in fear.

"Bagaya Road! When did such a powerful elite force of the Chinese Army appear near Teng County?"

"When did they show up here? What do our intelligence agencies do for a living!"

"Why didn't they tell us any information? I have to personally command the army immediately to gather together such a Chinese army, otherwise the reputation of our Iron Imperial Army will be ruined by these Chinese armies!"

"Continue to give me the order. All tanks and combat vehicles should be driven to the north gate of Teng County, as well as anti-tank artillery units. Send them there immediately! In addition, inform our aviation force to prepare for bombing support, especially at dawn.

Bombing, I will never allow these Chinese troops to destroy the results of our attack on Teng County!"

After hearing the whole story of the battle, the expression of Commander Isotani Rensuke was very exciting and complicated for a while, and then he calmed down decisively, and then issued various counterattack orders.

...

.......

Xuzhou City, inside the Fifth War Zone Headquarters,

Commander-in-Chief of the Fifth Theater Command, Commander Li, Deputy Commander-in-Chief Li Pinxian, and Chief of Staff Xu Zuyi.

There are already many combat staff officers and senior military officers gathered together for emergency military meetings.

"Teng County has been invaded by the Japanese army. I'm afraid it will all be occupied by the Japanese tomorrow morning. That's why I asked you to come here in the middle of the night!"

"The strength of the Japanese 10th Division and a brigade of the 106th Division, as well as the nearly 20,000 troops of the Setani Detachment, are all concentrated in Teng County. In other words, the Sichuan Army troops there may be in danger.

!”

"Even if the entire 41st Army is dispatched to Teng County, it will not help!"

"And I have just received news that Commander Wang of the 122nd Division was killed in action, and many Sichuan Army generals were either killed in action or injured by Japanese artillery fire, so Teng County cannot be counted on, so we are still

Let’s see what should be done next?”

"After the Japanese capture Teng County, they will definitely send troops to attack Xuzhou City again!"

"The Taierzhuang fortifications and the Linyi Campaign, as well as the defense system on our side of Xuzhou City, must be improved as soon as possible. Otherwise, I am worried that after the fall of Teng County, the Japanese troops will break through our Xuzhou City's outer front more quickly.

Yes, once this happens, we will become a lone army defending Xuzhou!"

"Such a situation will be almost the same as a battle in the capital!!"

"So I don't want such a result. At the very least, we have to make the Japanese pay a heavy price when they attack our side of Xuzhou City! Otherwise, I will never be willing to accept it!"

"We have lost so many times in succession, so I feel like we should win it back once!"

When most of the officers and staff were summoned by Commander Li, he immediately got straight to the point.

Although it is still just before dawn, the sky is not yet bright.

Therefore, many of the officers and staff officers who were suddenly awakened had sleepy eyes and were distracted.

"Is there really no hope of saving Teng County?"

However, after Commander Li finished speaking, Deputy Commander Li Pinxian was still a little unwilling to give up and asked.

"There should be no more. The Japs have more than 40,000 troops, and they are fully equipped with aircraft, tanks, heavy artillery, and all kinds of heavy firepower weapons and equipment!"

"Furthermore, Commander Wang of the 122nd Division of the Sichuan Army who was responsible for guarding Teng County has been killed. This was reported to me by his superior, Commander Sun, and it was an urgent telegram. Otherwise, how could I not be here in Tiandu?"

When it lights up, will we send personnel to call you over here for a meeting right away?"

"That's because I'm worried that once Teng County falls, the Japanese army will become even more powerful and kill us on our side of Xuzhou City!"

"So the current war situation is still quite critical, so I hope you can give me better suggestions so that we can defeat these arrogant Japanese troops!"

Commander Li also responded very honestly to Deputy Commander Li Pinxian's questioning.

After hearing this, all the officers and staff present fell silent, because they all knew that after the fall of Teng County, their Xuzhou city would not be very stable.

The war was getting closer and closer to their Xuzhou City.
