Beat the devil with a system

Page 433

The purpose of coming here is very clear. He didn't want to listen to nonsense, so he directly stated the purpose of this trip.

"Isotani-kun, I have come to your headquarters, I have a heartfelt request, I hope you can agree."

"Oh?"

Isotani Rensuke knew what the other party wanted to say, so he deliberately pretended to be confused.

At this time, Isotani Rensuke was overjoyed, and Seishiro Itagaki, who was once invincible, sometimes begged him humbly.

Isotani Rensuke showed a puzzled expression, and said, "Itagaki-kun, you and I are both imperial soldiers, and we should help each other. If you have anything to do, you might as well just say it."

Seishiro Itagaki finished his cup of tea and said slowly, "Isotani-kun, you should know that the 5th Division and the security regiment have a deep hatred, so I implore you to hand over the main offensive power to attack Nanguan County to our 5th Division." [-] divisions."

"Mr. Itagaki, the command to attack Nanguan County was issued by the headquarters. If the headquarters did not order, I will hand over the offensive task to your 5th Division. What should the commander do if he blames it?"

Isotani Rensuke frowned, with a look of embarrassment on his face, he deliberately moved out of the Japanese army headquarters as an excuse, and rejected Itagaki Seishiro.

Itagaki Seishiro knew that Isoya Rensuke was a person who was greedy for credit, and the other party refused to agree to the request, just because he was worried that the 5th Division would rob their 10th Division of the credit.

End of this chapter

Chapter 394 is haunted

Instead, Itagaki Seishiro thought for a while, and then said, "Isotani-kun, you don't have to be suspicious and worried. I won't compete with you for credit. My purpose is just to annihilate the security team."

"Isotani-kun, as long as you agree to my request, all the credit for capturing Nanguan County will be yours and belong to your 10th Division."

Isotani Rensuke was holding the teacup, and his gaze was fixed on Itagaki Seishiro. Immediately, Isotani Rensuke was thinking about something.

At this time, Isoya Rensuke, who had a dark heart, was moved by the sincere words of Itagaki old devil.

In the previous battle, the 39th Regiment was defeated, which made Rensuke Isoya realize how powerful the security regiment is.

Even if the 8th Infantry Brigade concentrates all its troops and goes all out to take down Nanguan County, I am afraid that the entire 8th Brigade will suffer at least two-thirds of its troops.

Since Itagaki Seishiro proposed to focus on the steel plate of the security regiment, and he didn't want any credit, this is simply a great thing for Isoya Rensuke.

How could Rensuke Isotani not be tempted to have the cannon fodder charge ahead and enjoy such a great contribution all to himself?

Seishiro Itagaki saw that the other party was a little loose, and pleaded again, "Isotani-kun, as long as Nanguan County is taken down, I, Seishiro Itagaki, will definitely not take an inch of credit. Please believe in my sincerity, please!"

Isotani Rensuke looked at the chief of staff, Daichi Shinozuka, who was next to him, and soon, Daitomo Shinozuka gave a hint with his eyes, indicating that he also agreed.

"Since Mr. Itagaki is so sincere and has a big enmity with the security regiment, I will be happy as an adult." Rensuke Isotani said with a hypocritical smile, "I will immediately give orders to the frontline troops, and the main attack power will be handed over to your 5th Division. Regiment, our 10th Division assists in supporting your attack."

"Isotani-kun, thank you so much!" Itagaki Seishiro thanked Isotani Rensuke excitedly.

The purpose between the two has been achieved, and they didn't talk much.

Soon, Seishi Itagaki left the headquarters of the 10th Division with the accompanying officers.

When the old devil Itagaki left, the chief of staff of the devil, Daichi Shinozuka, spoke.

"General, the 39th Regiment has just fought against the security regiment. Nanguan County is guarded by the security regiment. This is a steel plate that is difficult to pry."

"Yeah, this Nanguan County is indeed a steel plate. This guy Itagaki offered to charge for us, and we can reap the benefits..." Isoya Rensuke showed a sly smile on his cold face.

Subsequently, Isoya Rensuke ordered the withdrawal of the front-line combat troops, and the main offensive power was handed over to Itagaki's 5th Division.

……

Nanguan County, Security Corps Headquarters.

Li Hong sat in the headquarters, staring at the battle map spread out on the table.

Suddenly, the forward scouts of the security regiment called.

After the communication soldier answered the phone, he immediately conveyed the situation to Li Hong.

"Regiment seat, the scouts on the front line report that the vanguard of the Japanese 5th Division has arrived!"

"The vanguard of the 5th Division has arrived so soon?"

Previously, Li Hong had estimated the marching speed of the Banyuan Division, and the enemy might not reach Nanguan County until noon.

He didn't see the enemy's marching speed, which was so much faster than he expected.

Li Hong sat at the conference table and thought for a while, then asked the communications soldier, "How many troops has the 5th Division of Itagaki assembled?"

The communications soldier continued to report, "Reporting to the regiment, the vanguard of the 5th Division arriving in Nanguan County is the 9th Regiment of the 11th Brigade of the Japanese Army, as well as artillery units, and a small number of armored units."

"Okay, I see." Li Hong nodded and let the messenger leave.

Li Hong knew very well what Old Devil Itagaki was thinking, the 21st Brigade had suffered a great loss at his hands, Old Devil Itagaki must be holding a grudge and eager to avenge his revenge.

Although the vanguard of the Itagaki Division arrived with less than 5000 people, Li Hong knew the combat effectiveness of the 5th Division, and the security regiment must not take it lightly.

Based on Li Hong's understanding of old devil Banyuan, this old devil is very cunning in war, and he will take revenge. The enemy must devote all his strength to revenge the security team.

The 5th Division and the 10th Division of the Solitary Devils have a huge disparity in strength between the two sides. If the security team and the little devils are tough, they will definitely suffer heavy casualties.

Li Hong thought about it carefully for a moment, and decided to avoid the front for the time being. Out of consideration for the casualties of the officers and soldiers of the security regiment, he ordered all the officers and soldiers on the front line to withdraw to the city for defense.

As soon as the order to retreat was issued, the artillerymen of the security regiment fired a wave of smoke bombs, blocking the sight of the devil troops.

The frontline position was filled with thick gunpowder smoke. Taking advantage of this time, the frontline troops of the security regiment quickly retreated.

The use of smoke bombs has two functions. One is to cover the safe retreat of troops.

The second function is to use the smoke screen to obstruct the enemy's line of sight. Even if the enemy launches an attack, they will step on the landmines on the ground if they are not careful.

"Quick, quick, evacuate!!!"

The officers and soldiers of the various battalions and companies of the security regiment evacuated in an orderly manner. They quickly retreated to the city along the long and narrow traffic trenches dug...

After half an hour.

Itagaki Seishiro returned to the established headquarters without any pause, and immediately convened a military meeting to make combat deployments, preparing to launch an attack on Nanguan County.

The devil mobilized the bomber.

"Buzzing—"

The Devil pilots were afraid of the air defense force of the security regiment, and a dozen bombers only dared to circle outside the city.

Devil flying scouts, overlooking the ground, carefully scouted the ground situation outside the city.

After a few minutes, the Devil bomber quickly lowered its flight altitude and began carpet bombing.
