As for the little devil's corpse, Li Hong didn't care about it. Whoever let the little devil invade China, even if the enemy's corpse was picked up by wild dogs, he deserved what he deserved.
Looking around the battlefield, the corpses of the little devils were spread all over the ground, fragments of shells were burning everywhere, and the air was filled with the smell of blood.
In this battle, although the enemy's attack was successfully repelled and the east and north of the city were defended, the security team itself also paid the price of nearly a thousand casualties.
Li Hong looked around at the tragic battlefield, and took a few breaths of relief. This battle is over, and the little devil who has been defeated so badly should not attack again.
Looking away from all parts of the battlefield, Li Hong immediately led the soldiers back to the city without stopping.
After returning to the city, Li Hong first called Ma Shangfeng, commander of the cavalry battalion, and asked about the transfer of residents.
I learned from Ma Shangfeng that all the civilians in the city had evacuated from Xuzhou City. This news was good news for Li Hong.
In addition, the security team successfully held back several divisions of the Devils, buying a lot of time for the transferred large troops.
Of course, with only one security regiment dealing with multiple divisions of the Japanese army, the pressure and casualties on the soldiers were great. To preserve the strength of the security regiment, it was necessary to change the defensive tactics.
Afterwards, Li Hong notified the communication soldiers to call the battalions, called the chief officers of the battalions to discuss the plan of defending the city, and rearranged the troops for defense.
The security team fought fiercely with the enemy, and the battles were so frequent that they didn't even have much time to collect the soldiers' corpses.
Tomorrow's battle, the little devil will definitely attack with multiple divisions, and it must be another tragic bloody battle.
Li Hong didn't want to start a tug-of-war with the little devil. If all the troops were exhausted, the security team would not have enough combat power to break through.
Li Hong discussed with the battalion chiefs for more than an hour, and jointly formulated a defense plan. They decided to send the little devil into the city to fight in the streets.
After the meeting, everyone didn't care about taking a rest. They returned to the defense zone and got busy according to the defense zone divided by Li Hong.
After receiving orders and instructions, the soldiers of each battalion took tools to set up defense lines in various streets and alleys overnight.
There are buildings everywhere in the city, and it saves a lot of time to establish a defensive position. The soldiers of the whole regiment use the surrounding houses and buildings to build fire positions, artillery positions, and air defense positions...
Chapter 541 The Enemy's Conspiracy ([-])
25 kilometers south of Xuzhou City, the Joint Operations Command of the 9th and 14th Divisions of the Japanese Army.
At this time, Yoshino Taro and Doihara Kenji were fidgeting in the headquarters, walking back and forth, both of them had gloomy expressions on their faces.
Soon, several devil officers ran into the headquarters to report with the casualty and battle damage table that had just been counted.
"Report, Commander of the Yoshino Division, the 18th Regiment of the 19th Infantry Brigade, which was in charge of the attack, suffered more than 1600 imperial soldiers, and damaged 17 tanks. The commander of the Sakai Brigade and all the important commanders of the 19th Regiment were all destroyed!"
"Report, General Madoka Dohi, the 27th Regiment of the 59th Infantry Brigade, which was in charge of the attack, suffered more than 1400 imperial soldiers, the heavy artillery position was destroyed, and countless weapons and equipment were destroyed. Many commanders died in battle, including the regiment leader... ..."
The casualties and battle damage reported by the Japanese officers were not completely accurate. The real casualties of the Japanese army were much higher.
"Baga Road!!!"
Hearing the casualties and battle damage reported by his subordinates, the two elders, Dohi Madoka and Yoshino, suddenly burst into anger and were humiliated.
The devil soldiers of the two divisions organized many sieges, and the devil troops were still defeated repeatedly. Moreover, many important officers and generals were killed or injured by the devil's frontline combat troops. This was the biggest loss of talents.
Since the 9th and 14th Divisions of the Japanese Army were established, the two divisions of the Devils have never suffered such a disastrous defeat.
"Ba Ga, the soldiers of the security regiment, and that cunning Li Hong, they are all dead!!!"
At this time, the two old devils who had been defeated were furious in the headquarters, Yoshino yelled at the security team, and Tu Feiyuan gritted his teeth and said that he would cut Li Hongda into eight pieces.
The two old devils vented their anger. Immediately, they asked the communications department to report the casualties and war damage to the Japanese North China Command.
After more than ten minutes, the Japanese North China Command replied with a telegram.
This telegram was personally sent by the commander of the Japanese army in North China. There was nothing else in the telegram, just a stern reprimand order.
After reading the casualty and war damage report, the commander of the Japanese army was very angry and dissatisfied with Yoshino and Dohi Madoka's unfavorable battle.
The commander of the Japanese army cursed very badly, and even called Dohiyuan and Yoshino a combination of a pair of idiots and stupid pigs.
Generally, the commanders of the devils who failed in the battle can be beaten and killed by seppuku. However, some insulting words will deal a greater blow to the devil commanders.
The devil generals with outstanding military exploits have always been proud and arrogant, but the two old devils in the headquarters were scolded as stupid pigs and idiots, so they were naturally ashamed and angry to the extreme.
"idiot!!!"
Yoshino Taro was filled with shame and anger, gritted his teeth angrily, and tore off a telegram in his hand.
The face of Tu Feiyuan old devil was also flushed with anger, but he had a strong psychological endurance and didn't explode on the spot.
After a few minutes, Dohimoto's face returned to normal, and he persuaded Yoshino Taro: "Yoshino-kun, calm down. Although we have suffered consecutive defeats and are humiliated and despised by the headquarters, as long as we annihilate the security team, we will be the same. You can win back the glory of the division."
Yoshino Taro was still angry, and said in an aggrieved tone: "Doi Madoka, the security regiment is too powerful, and Li Hong is cunning, it is not easy to defeat the security regiment, how can we annihilate the security regiment?"
Dohi Madoka thought for a while, and said, "Yoshino-kun, don't forget that besides us hating the security regiment, Itagaki and Isoya also hate the security regiment, and Li Hong is even more quick to get rid of it.
"Why don't we join forces with the 5th and 10th divisions to annihilate the security regiment together, make great contributions to the Great Japanese Empire, and become national heroes!"
Do Feiyuan's hateful fat face is full of murderous intentions, revealing conspiracy and tricks faintly.
After hearing this, Yoshino Taro felt confused, frowned and said, "Dohi Madoka, I don't quite understand what you're doing. If we unite Itagaki and Isoya, won't our credit be divided by them?"
"Yoshino-kun, you're thinking about it wrong." Dofei Yuan shook his head, and said with a cold smile: "The security regiment is a piece of steel, and if our two divisions alone want to destroy the security regiment, I'm afraid there will be at least [-] casualties Imperial soldiers, can you and I bear such a casualty price?"
Yoshino Taro thought for a few seconds, and thought carefully about Dohido's words. Suddenly, a cunning color appeared on his face.
"Yo Xi, it's better to use the 5th Division and the 10th Division to consume the strength of the security regiment. When they have a bloody battle with the security regiment, we can seize the opportunity and annihilate the security regiment in one fell swoop!"
Do Feiyuan, the spy chief, has a very deep city, and he is very shrewd in his wishful thinking.
With the current combat effectiveness of the 9th and 14th Divisions of the Japanese Army, they are definitely stronger than the 5th and 10th Divisions.Right now, even their two divisions cannot break through Xuzhou City, let alone the Itagaki and Jigu divisions.
When the strength of the security regiment was almost exhausted, the two old devils Dohi Yuan and Yoshino happened to be reaping the benefits of fishing.
The two old devils reached a conspiracy consensus, and soon sent a joint combat telegram to the 5th Division and the 10th Division.
……
To the east of Xuzhou City, 35 kilometers outside the suburbs.
The joint command headquarters of the 5th Division and the 10th Division of the Japanese Army.
Itagaki and Isoya, the two old devils, were not asleep. They were drinking tea at the headquarters to discuss the war outside Xuzhou.
Tonight, the battle outside Xuzhou City was fierce. The two sides fought for several hours. These two old devils have been paying attention, and they even sent scouts to spy on the situation on the front line.
Through the reconnaissance of the front-line scouts, the two old devils had long known that the Japanese 9th and 14th Divisions had suffered disastrous defeats.
Isotani Rensuke took a sip of tea, and said gloatingly, "Itagaki-kun, tonight, the Yoshino Division and the Dohien Division suffered a disastrous defeat. I think the North China Command must have sent a power call to reprimand them, hahaha!"
