Chapter 713 Contradictions
The teaching brigade's fierce attack on the Kido Detachment continued, and the Kido Detachment suffered a lot of casualties. After the captain of the 18th Regiment Naoman Takano was shot dead by artillery shells, the morale of the Japanese army became even lower, and some Japanese devils even gave up their positions and retreated to the rear.
The Kido Detachment had no morale at all, and they could not stop the attack of the teaching brigade, and kept retreating, and had no fighting spirit.
As the supreme commander of the Kido Detachment, Mitsuji Kido's face turned pale. Sitting in the detachment headquarters, Mitsuji Kido took a deep breath. He took out the southern pistol and wiped it repeatedly, his eyes emitting anger.
In Jinling, in the headquarters of the Japanese Central China Expeditionary Army, Major General Satoji Yoshimoto came to Lieutenant General Commander Osamu Yamada.
Yamada Yimao succeeded Toshiro Hata as the commander of the Central China Expeditionary Army. He had previously served in the Kwantung Army. When he was outside the pass, Yamada Yimao commanded a large number of Japanese, puppet troops, spies and other personnel to attack the anti-Japanese armed forces frantically, bringing heavy blows to the anti-Japanese armed forces outside the pass.
After coming to the Central China Expeditionary Army, Yamada Yozo did not perform much. Even this time the Battle of Nanchang, Jiangxi Province and the Battle of Suizao in Hubei Province were directly contacted by the commander of the 11th Army, Okamura Yasuji, and the commander of the Expeditionary Army, almost became a decoration.
Although he knew that Okamura Niji had a relationship with the emperor, he was naturally a little unhappy about such a thing.
"Hiss Commander, we have just received a report from the Kido Detachment. The Kido Detachment was attacked by the elite Chinese teaching brigade troops in the Huaihe River and paid a heavy casualty price. The Major General of the Kido Detachment, Miji Kido Detachment, requested tactical guidance." Sadaji Yoshimoto came to him and reported.
After hearing this report, Yamada Yoshinori showed a surprised expression on his face.
He knew the situation of the war in Hubei Province. The Muho Detachment was expanded by the 29th Brigade of the Third Division as the base. They obtained a lot of heavy weapons to strengthen, and this unit had about 10,000 troops.
Although Yamada Yozo came to the inner gate for the first time, he had a clear understanding of the combat effectiveness of the Chinese troops when fighting outside the gate. With the strength of the Kido Detachment, he could kill any Chinese army-level unit.
Even if they encounter the most elite teaching brigade troops, they still have the capital to fight.
"I have read Okamura Yanji's report before. Are there armored troops near the Kido Detachment to support it? Where are these armored troops? Where are they now? There are such casualties in the Kido Detachment, and the armored troops are still indifferent. Do they want to see the Kido Detachment being killed with their own eyes?"
Yamada Yoshimikan looked at Sadaji Yoshimoto in front of him and said in a cold tone.
Sadaji Yoshimoto was transferred from the Chief of Staff of the 11th Army as the Chief of Staff of the Central China Expeditionary Army. For Yoshimoto, Sadaji Yoshimoto belonged to Okamura Yasuji, and he would not give him any good face, especially Yoshimoto Yashimoto felt that his Expeditionary Army commander had been completely undermined.
"Your Excellency Commander, we don't understand the deployment of the 11th Army for the time being. The Kido Detachment violated regulations and exceeded the level of power generation, so we can ignore it. I believe that the 11th Army Command will definitely make reasonable arrangements." Yoshimoto Sadaki explained directly.
"Bagaya Road, the Muho Detachment is an elite unit of the Imperial Army Third Division. If an accident occurs in this unit, none of us will escape responsibility. The communications soldier immediately contacted the Muho Detachment and immediately asked them for specific combat situations and asked them to report in detail."
After hearing Sadashi Yoshimoto's words, Yamada's expression became even more angry and he shouted loudly.
The communications soldier did not dare to delay any delay and hurriedly started to generate electricity to contact.
Miji Kido soon received a call back from Yamada Yima. When Miji Kido saw hope, Miji Kido saw the whole story and hurriedly reported the whole story in detail.
Soon, Yamada Yozo learned about the entire combat process in detail.
When Yamada Yoko heard that the chariot group had violated the orders of Miji Kido, and now he was reluctant to save the Kido Detachment when he saw that he was dead, Yoko Yamada was extremely angry.
He thought this was a good opportunity to hit Okamura Yanji, so he quickly generated power to the 11th Army Command and asked the 11th Army to immediately urge the chariot group to support the Kido Detachment to ensure that the Kido Detachment would not suffer any losses.
"If the Kido Detachment has too many casualties or even completely annihilated, this will be the greatest shame for the Imperial Army. If the Imperial Army fails in this battle, the 11th Army will become the target of ridicule of the various units of the Imperial Army."
In the telegram sent to the 11th Army Command, Yamada Yoko left no mercy.
The 11th Army Command soon received a telegram from the Central China Expeditionary Force. After reading the telegram, Okamura Yasuji was silent for a long time, but he still had no response.
In terms of qualifications, it is absolutely impossible for Okamura Yasuji to become an army-level commander in such a short time. You should know that many of his predecessors are still division commanders, but because Hirohito chose him, he became the commander of the 11th Army. This position made many people dissatisfied with Okamura Yasuji.
Especially after Yamada Yokohama served as the commander of the Central China Expeditionary Army, Okamura Yasumi crossed him several times to contact the base camp, which made him extremely dissatisfied.
This time, Yamada Yoko found an opportunity and decided to hit Okamura Yanji hard.
"Call back to the Central China Expeditionary Army Headquarters immediately and tell us about the arrangements of our military headquarters in detail." Okamura Yasuji said with a helpless expression.
Major General Chief of Staff, Takazo Numata, quickly arranged for power generation after receiving the order.
The current combat intention of the 11th Army Command is to annihilate the teaching brigade troops. On this basis, it doesn't matter if other Japanese troops pay some casualties.
But this idea will never be accepted by Yamada Yoko.
Even though Okamura Yamada Yokohama made a detailed explanation, Yamada Yokohama still ordered the 11th Army Command to quickly urge the chariot group to rush to the Kido Detachment to quickly assist the Kido Detachment.
Time passed by bit by bit. At 9 o'clock in the morning on May 11, after more than a dozen Japanese Japanese detachments from the 34th Regiment of the Japanese Kido Detachment completely lost their positions, they raised their hands obediently under the gun of a soldier's black hole.
The Japanese actually surrendered voluntarily, which was something that the brigade officers and soldiers had never expected. The soldiers did not solve them immediately, but quickly sent them to the rear.
When a squadron leader of the Japanese knew that there were soldiers in his army surrendering to the teaching brigade, he directly chose to commit suicide and apologize.
The Japanese were very depressed, and this incident brought them a shocking blow, and many Japanese soldiers began to hesitate.
After receiving the news, Miji Kido took out the southern pistol in shame, pointed it directly at his temple, and quickly pulled the trigger.
