The road that used to take a few hours now takes more than ten hours, or even a day.

I want to know whether that battle can lead to a large-scale attack and launch operations in Shanxi Province, Hebei Province and other regions.

All the main forces and local troops that can be mobilized participate in the battle.

Railways and highways have been damaged to varying degrees.

The three security divisions wanted to mobilize troops, but they could not rush to the designated area quickly.

Of course, even if they come to the Zhengtai Railway now, they have no way to pass along the railway quickly.

Because the southern section of the Tongpu Railway has also suffered some damage, which will affect the progress of the little devils.

The 16th independent mixed brigade responsible for defense in the far south has also been hit.

They don't have any spare troops to mobilize, and the reinforcements that the First Army wants to mobilize will not be in place for a while.

Yoshio Shinozuka and Chief of Staff Kusuyama Hideyoshi will study it in detail, and they will be able to give orders to the various departments involved in the war.

They requested that the troops participating in the war in the far south must be assembled before August 30th.

It is now August 24th, which is quite six days for those troops, so the time is very sufficient.

After handling that matter, Yoshio Shinozuka began to discuss it in detail with the staff.

The independent mixed eighth brigade stationed on the Zhengtai Railway is currently unable to move eastward stably. They rely on positions along the line for solid defense.

In addition, Yamamoto Kazuki's special agent team played a key role. They continued to conduct attacks to support the operations of the independent eighth brigade.

Although the Moon Army could not ensure the absolute safety of the Zhengtai Railway, the casualties and losses of various units could not be controlled.

Moreover, they have also brought some casualties to the attacking eastern divisions of the 129th Division.

"Please ask the Fourth Independent Mixed Brigade to end its operations in Xin County and quickly rush to support the Eighth Independent Mixed Brigade."

"Two brigades and one special agent team will stick to the Zhengtai Railway. There will be no problem. They can even rely on defense to kill a large number of Eighth Route troops."

"And if the troops participating in the battle in the southern Shanxi region arrive later, then for the Eighth Route Army, the end of the month will not come at all!"

"In the past, those Eighth Route Army troops fought in separate battles. It was very difficult for them to annihilate them. This time, it was a perfect opportunity to catch them all in one fell swoop."

Yoshio Shinozuka looked at the map and spoke slowly.

If the fighting troops from the south could not arrive in time, he could place his hopes on the independent mixed fourth brigade.

He planned to arrange for the independent mixed fourth brigade to take the lead in the battle and use defensive warfare to consume a large amount of the 129th Division's combat strength.

As soon as he finished speaking, Chief of Staff Kusuyama Hideyoshi walked over with a solemn face.

"Commander Ge Dong, we just received a message from the Fourth Independent Mixed Brigade."

"They failed in the battle in Xin County, and the troops suffered heavy casualties. The number of troops in the current battle was less than 3,000."

"The troops retreated to the hilly area northwest of Xinxian County, and Major General Mitake Tsuda, commander of the brigade, requested tactical guidance."

After Kusuyama Hideyoshi saluted, he opened his mouth to report.

After hearing the report, Yoshio Shinozuka couldn't help but stand there in shock, with an expression of disbelief on his face.

The entire military headquarters personnel were completely silent for a while.

Can the independent mixed fourth brigade be a field force? They have more than 8,000 troops.

The 48th Independent Brigade that was fighting with them had more than 7,000 people. Is there a big gap in the strength of the two sides?

More importantly, the Lunar Army was reinforced with artillery and had a certain number of poison gas bombs.

No matter how you look at it, the independent mixed fourth brigade has a definite advantage.

Yoshio Shinozuka unconsciously clenched his legs into fists and looked coldly at the map's location in Xin County.

"Commander Ge Dong, based on the current situation, the fourth independent mixed brigade is in danger of being completely annihilated."

"If this unit is annihilated again, I'm afraid the consequences will be disastrous, and they must seek full support for their fight."

"Now are they requesting that they immediately send electricity to contact the troops stationed in Mongolia and ask them to send troops to support us?"

"If the First Army currently has no extra troops that can be deployed, we can contact the troops stationed in Mongolia."

Kusuyama Hideyoshi looked at Yoshio Shinozuka and suggested softly.
