"Commander, please calm your anger. We still have a chance." Major General Kotaro Yamada quickly persuaded.

He was afraid that Lieutenant General Nakamura would make a decision that would lose his mind when he was angry. In that case, it would not be a good thing for them. If this happened to the entire army, it would be a tragic situation.

"Hu!" Akito Nakamura took a deep breath, calmed down the anger in his heart, and then asked.

"Yamada, do you have any suggestions?" asked Lieutenant General Nakamura Akito.

"The Commander, according to the information we have obtained, the Chinese people who appeared in Hokpangpo were not many troops, only more than a thousand. If we can defeat them and retake Hokpangpo, then our plan can still be implemented." Major General Kotaro Yamada said.

Lieutenant General Nakamura was immediately excited. Indeed, the anti-Japanese and national salvation army that occupied Pekpangpo had not many troops. Even if their combat effectiveness was very strong, it was not yet enough to make them desperate. If they could regain Pekpangpo, then they would still be able to persevere until reinforcements arrived. In that case, he would still have a glimmer of hope.

"Order the 4th baggage corps and the 4th engineer company to rush to Peklampo immediately, crush the Chinese people there, and retake Peklampo, without any mistakes!" Lieutenant General Nakamura Akito ordered.

"Hi, Commander." Major General Kotaro Yamada nodded. However, he seemed to be reluctant to speak.

"What's wrong? Yamada-kun, do you have any suggestions?" asked Lieutenant General Nakamura Akito.

"Mr. Commander, I think it is better to let the 56th Regiment of the 56th Regiment of the 56th Regiment of the 56th Regiment of the 56th Regiment of the 56th Regiment of the 56th Division go to the 56th Regiment of the 56th Division go to the 56th Regiment of the 56th Division. Although the units of the 56th Division are newly formed, their combat effectiveness and fighting will are stronger than the 4th Division." Major General Kotaro Yamada suggested.

Akito Nakamura nodded immediately, and he almost fainted. The combat power of the 4th Division was not strong at all. If he had not issued a strict order on the Wonbin River defense line, the 4th Division would have collapsed long ago. Now, they are facing a life-and-death crisis. Under such circumstances, the remaining troops of the 4th Division, which had already been defeated, would probably not have been successful at all. Instead, the remaining troops of the 56th Division were much more likely to win.

"Well, let Matsuyama Lord come to see me." Lieutenant General Nakamura Akito ordered.

"Hi, Commander." Major General Kotaro Yamada immediately went to summon Lieutenant General Yuzumatsu.

More than ten minutes later, Lieutenant General Matsuyama Yuki, the commander of the 56th Division of the Japanese Army, appeared in front of Lieutenant General Nakamura Akito.

"Your Excellency Commander!" Lieutenant General Matsuyama Yuki respectfully saluted Lieutenant General Nakamura Akito. Although even a fool can see that. Because of this failure, Lieutenant General Nakamura Akito will soon lose his power. However, as long as the command from the Southern Army Command is not issued for a day, he will be a subordinate of Lieutenant General Nakamura Akito for a day and must respect him.

"Mon Matsuyama, the current situation is already very critical to us. The Chief of the Temple asked us to build a defense line in Hokpangpo to prevent the China from moving further south, and to buy time for the arrival of the 2nd and 38th Army. If we can do this, the Chief of the Temple will approve me to transfer to the reserve. The other generals will also let us go." Lieutenant General Nakamura Akito said sincerely.

A surprise flashed in Lieutenant General Matsuyama's third Lieutenant General Yuuki's eyes. You know, as one of the main divisions of the 18th Front Army, his future was also bleak after this failure. However, if General Takaichi Teraunuchi could protect them, then their future would not be affected. Even after the domestic supplementary troops arrived, the 56th Division, which suffered heavy losses, could be rebuilt.

Of course, Lieutenant General Matsuyama Yuki also knew why the frustration on Lieutenant General Nakamura Akito's face has disappeared now. For Lieutenant General Nakamura, it is already a rare thing to be able to save a small life under such circumstances.

"Commander, this is an excellent opportunity for us! We must seize this opportunity. We must defend Pek Pang Po!" A trace of determination flashed across the face of Matsuyama Yu-Second Lieutenant General Matsuyama. For his future, even if he sacrificed his life, he must defend Pek Pang Po.

Lieutenant General Nakamura nodded: "Mr. Matsuyama, it would be best if you can think like this. At this time, if we all unite, our 18th Front Army will not have no chance at all."

A smile appeared on Lieutenant General Matsuyama Yuko's face. For them, now they were like a drowning man grabbed a straw. They had regarded the straw as something that could save their lives.

"However, Matsuyama-kun. Now, the situation in Hokpangpo has changed a little. If it is not handled properly, it will be like a catastrophe for us." Lieutenant General Nakamura Akito changed his mind.

"What's wrong? Commander?" Lieutenant General Yuki Matsuyama suddenly became nervous. He suddenly felt a bad feeling.

"I just got the news that a small army of the Chinese people, I don't know what happened, ran to us. They have occupied the Pek Pang Po. I believe that Matsuyama Jun is very clear about what this means to us. If we cannot regain the Pek Pang Po, then we will not only lose the way to retreat to the south, but also lose the best battlefield to block the Chinese people. At that time, all of us will have a dead end." Lieutenant General Nakamura Akito continued.

He was not exaggerating. If they could not complete the task assigned by General Toshikazuki, then the last chance to survive would slip away in vain. Lieutenant General Nakamura Akito had to apologize and cleanse his sins. And no other generals of the 18th Front Army could have a good ending. To a certain extent, they were all people on the same boat. If the boat capsized, naturally no one would survive.

"Hiss Commander, how many Chinese people are there who occupy Pek Pangpo?" asked Lieutenant General Yusuo Matsuyama.

"The information I have received at present is a small army of more than a thousand people." Lieutenant General Nakamura Akito said.

After hearing this answer, Lieutenant General Matsuyama Yuki finally breathed a sigh of relief. If it were a unit of more than a thousand people, then the problem did not seem to be big. If you grasp it well, they could still seize the last glimmer of hope.
