Chapter 174: Battle of Beijing and Han Dynasty(2/2)
"Report"
"How is the operation of the Fifth Division going?"
Shirakawa Yoshitsune, wearing a single coat, took advantage of the opportunity to enjoy the cool air and eagerly asked the major staff officer who came over.
"Your Excellency, Commander, the leading troops of the Fifth Division were engaged in a firefight with the Chinese ** team in the Wanglang Mountain area. Our actions have been discovered by the Chinese ** team." the major staff officer reported truthfully.
"It will definitely be discovered." Shirakawa Yoshinori leaned on the recliner, picked up a cup of tea with a dull expression, and took a sip. In the morning, the task force off Tianjin notified him that in addition to large-scale bombing missions,
Fights to gain air supremacy over the battlefield will be further reduced.
This means that Chinese aircraft will increasingly dominate the skies over Tianjin and Beijing.
Regarding the Chinese, especially the advanced fighters in southwest China, Shirakawa Yoshinori, the army commander, is confident that he knows much better than the domestic military officials. Because, at noon, several fortifications outside Tianjin were attacked by the Chinese
There are no human bombings, and the headquarters hiding in the residential area of the city may not be very safe.
"Order each division to launch a diversionary attack at dawn as planned. The 43rd Reinforced Infantry Regiment originally planned is ready to block the support of the Chinese second-class division to Baoding at any time. They are only 80 kilometers away and are already the closest troops.
.”
"yes"
Shirakawa Yoshinori signaled the major to step back, and stayed quietly by himself, thinking about the battle. Launching this battle to cut off the lifeline was the best and fastest change he could think of as the commander.
The current battle plan is in a stalemate. Although the transfer of one division will inevitably increase the pressure on the other four divisions on the battlefield, it will undoubtedly give the Chinese a slap in the face.
A Chinese regiment in Baoding, the almost fictitious second-class division near Zhengding, and the second-class division about 80 kilometers away from Baoding in the direction of Beiping are all the Chinese regiments that may join the Baoding battlefield. The fifth division is the veteran one.
The division, even under the most unfavorable circumstances of the war, will definitely win against these three Chinese teams at the same time.
The most important thing is that according to intelligence from spies and traitors, Baoding is not Peking and there is no military airport here.
Moreover, in addition to various hypotheses, Shirakawa Yoshihide prefers another one, that is, this division captured Baoding before the Chinese army had time to support Baoding. That would be a huge blow to the empire.
Great news.
"The turning point on the battlefield is tomorrow."
Shirakawa Yoshinori said calmly to himself that perhaps only a victory on the Baoding battlefield could prevent him from engaging in a full-scale offensive and defensive battle with the Chinese army. He is not Nogi Nogi, and he will not watch the elites of the empire lining up until the last moment.
The team went to die.
