"Half a month?" Hinata Zhimei looked constipated.

If the Fifth Division and the 22nd Division acted rapidly, encircled and annihilated the 62nd and 63rd Divisions of the National Army respectively in Dalan Town and Xikou Town, then there would be only one division in Yinjiang. In this case, the 13th Army would still be very sure to capture Yinjiang City within half a month.

But now, with three American equipment divisions in Yinjiang, the difficulty immediately increased exponentially.

Usa Mitsuki asked quietly: "Higa Shijun, do you think we can capture Yinjiang within half a month?"

Hinata Shiaki shook his head subconsciously and said in a deep voice: "Chief of the Staff, I hope the Imperial Army can capture Yinjiang within half a month, but reason tells me that it is unlikely!"

"The possibility is not high, it means it is still possible. Hinata Shikun, is that true?"

A sudden sound suddenly sounded from behind. Looking back quickly, it was Nishio Suzuo.

"Hello Commander-in-Chief!" Usa Mitsuki and Hinata Shiaki quickly closed their feet and paused their heads.

Nishio Suzuo waved his hand, walked to Usa Mitsuru and asked, "Usa Mitsuru, how confident are you?"

Usa Mitsuru frowned and pondered for a moment, then said, "Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief, you are only five points to be sure of your humble position."

"Five points to seize? That's half the chance." Nishio Shouzuo nodded and said, "This opportunity is enough to take a risk. You must know that in the Lushun Battle, the Imperial Army had only 20% chance, but the final result was that the Imperial Army won a great victory! So, sometimes courage can change everything."

"Hayi!" Usa Mirō felt relieved when he heard this, and at the same time he made up his mind.

"Mikun Usa, let go!" Nishio Suzuo patted Usa Mitaka's shoulder and said, "After all, even if you can't win this battle, the Imperial Army will not lose!"

"Hayi!" Usa Mirō paused again.

...

In Yinjiang, the front-line enemy staff of Jiangdong.

He Wenxi has not returned yet, so the General Staff is temporarily presided over by Ding Bai.

At this moment, Ding Bai had already brought several left-behind combat staff to mark the enemy and us on the sand table.

"Shenzhen, that's probably what it is." Ding Bai pointed to the sand table and explained, "After changing clothes, the 63rd Division has already entered Gaoqiao and Cicheng line, and after changing clothes, the 62nd Division has also entered Gulin Town to Dongqiao Town, and the Second Detachment can now concentrate its troops to garrison Dongwu Town to Yunlong Town, and the situation is much better than before."

Just two days ago, Zhong Yi did not come back, and the 62nd and 63rd Divisions did not come to Yinjiang. At that time, Yinjiang had only one second detachment, while the Japanese were in the forefront of two divisions. Among them, the Fifth Division was the first-class main division that once had a shocking record on the battlefield in Shanxi.

At that time, Ding Bai was really square.

But now, not only Zhong Yi is back, but he also brings two main divisions!

So now Ding Bo is no longer at all, so the Japanese will come!

Thinking of this, Ding Bai couldn't help but say again: "Since we have three American armed divisions in Yinjiang, the disadvantages in terms of military strength are no longer very different. In addition, we are fighting in defensively and have strong fortifications to rely on, so the Japanese don't even think about breaking through our army's defense line within half a month."

After a pause, Ding Bai continued: "After half a month, the 10th Army and the 41st Army have completed rest and recuperation. By then, the anti-encirclement from the periphery will be implemented, and the Japanese will be finished."

"No." Zhong Yi shook his head and said in a deep voice, "The Japanese will not finish it."

After saying that, Zhong Yi pointed to the East China Sea and said, "No matter how bad the Japanese are, they can still retreat from the sea, so in this battle, the Japanese are actually invincible!"

"Ah?" Ding Bai was a little stunned.

Zhong Yi shook his head and continued, "But now I'll think about it first, how to defend Yinjiang."

Ding Bo said in surprise: "She is the current situation, there should be no pressure to defend Yinjiang, right?"

"No pressure?" Zhong Yi shook his head, "Deputy Director Ding, you are thinking too simply. Let me tell you, this battle is not that there is no pressure, but that the pressure is very great, so great that it is beyond your imagination!"

"Ah?" Ding Bo said in surprise, "Why did the Seal of the Ginseng say that?"

"Because of the Fifth Division!" Zhong Yi said, "There is no reason why the Fifth Division can be praised as the Steel Army by the Japanese Army Department. The combat effectiveness of this division is really strong! It's really strong!"

It was this Fifth Division that defeated the Central Army and the 30th Division of the Jinsui Army from the front in the Battle of Xinkou with the strength of a brigade.

It was this Fifth Division that still crippled the only mechanized unit of the National Army with the strength of a brigade in the battle of Kunlun Pass at the cost of more than 5,000 casualties - the Fifth Army with a force of more than 40,000.

If you don’t fight with the Fifth Division, you will never know how terrible this division is.

...

Almost at the same time, in Andong Town, Cixi County.

With the landing of the Fifth Division's follow-up troops, Imamura also moved his division headquarters from the Izumo destroyer of the Fourth Navy Fleet to land.

Regarding the 5th Division's progress was not fast enough and failed to encircle and annihilate the 63rd Division of the National Army that was resting in the Dalan Town, Yaonan in time, Usa Mirō was actually a little blamed.

Because a Type A division like the Fifth Division, which has a very large staff and equipment scale, is very troublesome and time-consuming to move.

First of all, the login of nearly 30,000 people is a big problem.

After the personnel log in, there is also login for subsequent equipment.

After the equipment is logged in, there is also the login of supplies.

After all personnel, equipment and materials arrive ashore, they must be deployed.

Only after the troops were launched could they move forward. At this time, the problem arose. Almost all the land in Cixi was flat, and all the actions of the Japanese army were exposed under the surveillance of the national army, without any secrets.

So the 5th Division had just landed in the Three Norths and was resting in Dalan Town and had already received news and responded immediately. So even if the 5th Division could fly, it would be too late.

Imamura also knew that the 62nd and 63rd Division of the National Army retreated to Yinjiang and changed into American equipment.

However, Imamura didn't care about this because he had absolute confidence in the combat effectiveness of the Fifth Division. He was just the two remnants of the National Army, and was definitely not a match for the Fifth Division!

Imamura even felt that it would not take so many troops to capture a mere Yinjiang River, and just one of them was enough to complete the mission.

Amid the sound of footsteps, a colonel officer hurried in.
Chapter completed!
