Chapter 171 Can't escape
"General, our defense line has been broken by the Chinese. All divisions have been crippled and suffered heavy losses. Please evacuate immediately." Fukuzawa Takashi and Colonel reported to Major General Takera Isomura.
"Seven thousand people, they were defeated after just resisting the Chinese people in one day. Could it be that we are really no match for the Chinese people?" Major General Takera Isomura murmured.
Originally, he thought that no matter how he was, they could resist the two or three days of fighting against Japan and saving **, and gain enough time for Lieutenant General Aoki Shigemasa to escape. However, now it seems that their plan has failed. In just one day, an infantry division in the Anti-Japanese and Rescue ** could solve them.
Fukuzawa Tadashi and Colonel did not say a word. Indeed, he was also greatly shocked in this battle. The combat effectiveness shown by the anti-Japanese and rescue ** made the Japanese army stunned. Although they were all troops composed of Chinese people, the combat effectiveness of the anti-Japanese and rescue ** was simply two extremes compared with the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army on the Chinese battlefield.
"General, leave quickly, otherwise it would be too late." Fukuzawa Tadashi and Colonel persuaded.
"You go by yourself, I won't leave. This time, someone always has to be responsible for this failure. And I am the one who needs to be responsible." Major General Takera Isomura shook his head.
A series of crushing defeats left him no longer the courage to survive. He needs to be responsible for this failure.
When Fukuzawa Tadashi and Colonel saw that Major General Takera Isomura had made up his mind, he had to stop saying anything more.
As soon as Fukuzawa Tadashi and Colonel left, they broke through the Japanese defense line and went straight to their command center when they fought against Japan.
An m3 light tank broke in directly. The tank gun aimed at Major General Takera Isomura who was about to commit suicide by septum.
Seeing the tanks that resisted Japan and rescued **, Major General Takera Isomura was stunned.
"Does this old Japanese still want to have a septile? Fire and kill him, and you can't let him do it." The commander immediately ordered.
"Boom!" The tank gun opened fire. A 37mm high-explosive bomb exploded beside Major General Wuliang Isomura, tearing him to pieces. It also made his idea of committing suicide by separating himself.
"Captain, most of the Japanese army have been annihilated by us, and only a very small part have escaped." Xu Feipeng reported.
Qin Shou nodded, and was still very satisfied with the results of this battle. After eating thousands of Japanese troops again, the strength of the Japanese troops undoubtedly declined again.
"Let the brothers rest for one night and chase them tomorrow." Qin Shou said.
The soldiers were already very tired after continuous high-intensity battles. Although the Japanese army was evacuating quickly, Qin Shou still planned to give the troops some rest.
"Okay, commander." Xu Feipeng nodded.
"Send a telegram to the 1st Infantry Division and ask where they have arrived? No matter what, they must seize Ganbolu first and intercept the Japanese army. The 2nd Infantry Division and the 3rd Infantry Division must also speed up." Qin Shou ordered.
Under the blocking and continuous attacks of the anti-Japanese rescue, the strength of the Japanese army was constantly being weakened. As long as you catch up with them and then surround them, you can eat them all bit by bit.
After the main force of the Japanese Burmese Front Army was solved, the Japanese army could no longer stop the anti-Japanese and rescue of the entire Myanmar.
Once successful, Qin Shou's initial goal will be achieved.
"Yes, commander." The communication officer immediately went to send a telegram.
When the Japanese army's rear-rear troops were completely wiped out, Lieutenant General Aoki Shigemasa, who was fleeing in a panic, also received the news.
"Have you only lasted for a day for seven thousand people?" Lieutenant General Aoki Shigemasa's face looked very ugly. This result was beyond his expectations. He also believed that no matter how powerful the fight against Japan and rescued **, it would not be possible to deal with their rear-breaking troops so quickly.
The death of Major General Takera Isomura was also a great blow to Lieutenant General Aoki Shigemaki. It can be said that Major General Takera Isomura stayed to block the enemy in order to allow the main force to escape smoothly. Although the effect of blocking the enemy is very limited, Major General Takera Isomura can also be said to have tried his best.
"You guys, the Chinese are too powerful, completely beyond our expectations. Isomura Jun tried his best and only bought us a day. We must speed up further. Otherwise, it would be difficult to escape the pursuit of the Chinese people." Lieutenant General Aoki Shigemaki said with a serious face.
"Hi, Commander." The three division commanders nodded repeatedly.
Major General Wuliang Isomura's death made them feel a little bit like this. If they can't escape this time, I'm afraid Major General Wuliang Isomura's death will be a lesson for them.
"Give up the bulky baggage, let the soldiers bring their weapons, equipment and rations, and then speed up. We have no time to waste on the road." Lieutenant General Shigemasa Aoki ordered.
In this way, they will undoubtedly speed up their speed. Of course, it will also affect the combat effectiveness of the troops to a certain extent. However, Lieutenant General Aoki Shigemasa believes that as long as they can escape the pursuit of the fight against Japan and rescue, they will be their victory.
Several division commanders did not refute this. They also hoped to escape sooner.
The Japanese army, which gave up all baggage and heavy weapons, withdrew a lot faster. Even though they were often blocked by scouts and air force teams who were fighting against Japan and rescued, they were unable to delay their marching speed.
On the morning of September 14, Lieutenant General Aoki Shigemaki led the remnants of the Myanmar Front to the west bank of the Mu River. As long as you cross the Mu River, you can reach Gampolu.
Lieutenant General Aoki Shigemaki breathed a sigh of relief and immediately ordered to cross the river.
The Japanese army started crossing the river with small boats collected by fishing boats. However, when their ships were still dozens of meters away from the shore, anti-Japanese and rescue troops appeared on the bank opposite. Then, dense shells were shot at the Japanese army.
The explosion sounded in the Mu River. The shells exploded in the river, splashing water columns.
Some small boats were directly hit by shells and exploded into pieces. The Japanese soldiers carrying them fell directly into the river.
"Da da da da!"
The dense aircraft was strafing, hitting the wooden hull, easily breaking through, leaving one bullet hole after another. Japanese soldiers were constantly hit and screaming and transferred into the Mu River.
Blood flowed out of their bodies, dyeing the river water red.
