Chapter 718 The General Offensive Begins
Two days later!
With the battle between the 512th Brigade and the 110th Japanese Division in the western region of Handan, the situation was in a difficult state of stalemate, which attracted much less attention from all parties for a time.
The commander of the 1st theater commander of the National Army.
"What a pity!"
Wei Lihuang, commander of the theater commander, sighed: "The famous Dragon Head Detachment is now even unable to defeat the Japanese security forces. It seems that it has been damaged. The strategy of the Eighth Route Army to attack the Japanese army this time will definitely no longer exist."
After the words came, many national military officers present also nodded secretly in pain.
Although many of the National Army officers present had hostility towards the Eighth Route Army and knew that the Kuomintang and the Communist Party would sooner or later have a war, under the premise of joint anti-Japanese war, they still hoped that the Eighth Route Army could stand up and crush the Japanese army's sweeping conspiracy.
This time, the leader detachment suffered a heavy blow, and they also felt a pity.
The 110th Japanese Division was besieged, and the Japanese army guarding Handan City were another group of mobs. This was a great opportunity to break Handan City.
But at such an important critical moment, the leader team was defeated!
How could everyone not sigh?
Sun Lianzhong, commander of the 2nd Army, also sighed: "It's a pity, otherwise he would definitely be able to fight to the end!"
Everyone present nodded and agreed.
"Hahaha!"
Suddenly at this moment, Sun Dianying, the commander of the New 5th Army, sneered.
"What a shitty leader team, it's just an embroidered pillow."
"The previous series of military achievements, now I think, are just no tigers in the mountains, so I just want the monkey to be called king."
"Isn't this a sight now? I can't beat the Japanese's miscellaneous cards. What else can I talk about attacking Handan? It's just a fool!"
"In my opinion, even the 110th Division of the Japanese Army whose rear route is now cut off, the 512th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army will definitely not be able to deal with it."
Sun Dianying was full of disdain and endless jealousy towards the Dragon Leading Detachment, without any concealment.
As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately attracted the glare of many military officers.
Although Sun Dianying, although he was the commander of the New 5th Army, his reputation had long been terrible.
Not to mention the title of the Jinshi Captain, he was just the dirty acts between the National Army, the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese Army, which made many upright national soldiers despise.
Now that he heard him speak so loudly, how could everyone bear it?
Two or three people started to curse.
But immediately, Sun Dianying was beaten back one by one.
"snort!"
"Am I wrong with his name of embroidered pillows in the Dragon Head Detachment?"
"It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous!"
"Don't forget that we are the National Army, the National Army under Chairman Jiang. What about the Eighth Route Army and his Niao Route Army are not all the same route at all!"
"Also, don't talk to me about cooperation with the Kuomintang and the Communist Party one by one. In my opinion, this is just a stopgap solution for the Japanese army to come first."
"After we finish cleaning up the Japanese, Chairman Jiang will lead us sooner or later to cut off all the Communist Party and the Eighth Route Army!"
When many people heard what Sun Dianying said, they were immediately furious. They were about to refute the national justice, but were retorted by Sun Dianying.
Sun Dianying said coldly: "Put your awesomeness and don't deceive yourself. In this battle of Handan, no matter what leader detachment or the 512th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army, they will definitely lose. If they want to win, unless the sun hits the west, unless the river flows backwards!"
After that, Sun Dianying slammed the door and left without caring about everyone's red faces.
This made everyone angry.
Even Wei Lihuang, the second-level general of the War Zone Commander, had a blue and red look, which was extremely ugly.
Although I feel angry, I have no way to vent.
In fact, he wanted to shoot Sun Dianying immediately!
Even if he didn't make a big fuss about his current situation, Wei Lihuang wanted to deal with him for the passive slack work of his New 5th Army in rescued Chu Yunfei's troops a few days ago.
But Wei Lihuang endured it!
Why?
The current situation of the War of Resistance Against Japan is extremely difficult, and there are many surrendered elements among the national army.
Especially when Wang Jingwei fled to Japan and wanted to establish a new government in Nanjing, many generals of the national army also began to attack the enemy and rebel at any time.
Wei Lihuang was able to tolerate Sun Dianying, but he didn't want to watch the brothers of the New 5th Army join the Japanese side.
Otherwise, China's losses will be huge!
"Oh~!"
Sun Lianzhong, the commander of the 2nd Army, sighed and said, "Although Sun Dianying speaks like a fart, the current situation in Handan is indeed not optimistic!"
"If you are not careful, the 110th Division of the Japanese Army is likely to fight back and completely turn the tables. By then, the 512th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army will not only fail to win, but will likely suffer a crushing defeat!"
The commander of the 40th Army, Pang Bingxun, looked worried.
The battle situation in Handan has reached this point, and few people are optimistic that the 512th Brigade will win!
Even Shen Ke, the deputy commander of the 40th Army and the famous anti-Japanese general who had not spoken on the side, was anxious and was worried about the 512th Brigade and Ouyang.

Commander of the Second War Zone of the National Army.
"Bang!"
The war zone commander Yan Xishan slapped the table and his eyes were cold. "The 512th Brigade, what kind of national brigade, is like a joke. If they really have the strength, they would not have fought with the Japanese 110th Division for so long, and there would be no result."
After pausing, he said, "I originally hoped that they would win the battle in Handan, and then to create morale support for our Jinsui Army's battle in Shanxi, but now it's good that there is nothing left. They disappoint me so much!"
At this moment, Yan Xishan was in a bad mood!
You should know that a few days ago, he was surprised when he learned that the 512th Brigade had cut off the retreat of the 110th Division of the Japanese Army.
If the Japanese 110th Division is severely damaged;
Handan City was captured;
These two results, no matter which one is, can scare the Japanese army in North China, and our Chinese army has greatly boosted its morale.
But now, the leader detachment is weak and can't even beat the Japanese miscellaneous brands. It's a dream to try to break through Handan City.
Yan Xishan also had great confidence in the 110th Division of the Japanese Army.
After all, the 512th Brigade's record is really there.
In the battle of Fairy Lake, the great victory of Luokouling, and the great victory of Baishiling, any one of them can give people a thumbs up and praise it.
But now!
It was two days since the 512th Brigade captured the position of Moguling and cut off the Japanese army's retreat, but their attack on the Japanese 110th Division was also a failure of fewer victories and more defeats, and there was no hope of victory.
In this way, Yan Xishan went from full of hope to his current disappointment. How could he feel better?
Finally, Yan Xishan sighed: "It seems that the 512th Brigade is no longer as brave as it was back then."
For a time, the first war zone, the second war zone, and even the Japanese troops in North China all recognized one by one.
In the Battle of Handan, the 512th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army will be defeated!

Ouyang clenched his fists and said solemnly: "In a few days, I believe the Japanese army has been paralyzed by us. Our army's victory will be today!"
Liu Tongluo, Zhao Gang, and Wang Yaqiao all nodded heavily.
Liu Tongluo made a quick decision and said loudly: "Tell me the order, ordering the 885th Regiment, the 886th Regiment, the 887th Regiment, the New First Regiment, the New Second Regiment, and the rest of the 512th Brigade, our 512th Brigade will launch a comprehensive general attack at 1 pm this afternoon!"
Chapter completed!
