Spy Wars: I can get rewards by being a bully!

Chapter 146: A Big Fish Hidden in Beiping City

East Lu, De County.

It is unknown how Shancheng got the information about the 10th Division of the Japanese invaders against De County.

Even the relevant firepower configuration and direction of attack were figured out.

At this time, all areas along the Jinpu Road had been separately assigned to the Sixth War Zone, with Feng Shangdi as the commander-in-chief.

He sent the 81st Division to De County and demanded that they firmly defend De County and smash the Japanese's plan to move south and break through the Jinpu Line.

Immediately afterwards, the old man personally telegraphed Han Xiangfang, promising to assign him a heavy artillery brigade and ordering him to immediately command the three divisions of the Third Army to go north to support De County.

Soon, the battle in De County began.

The Japanese first bombarded Xiaoxi Gate, and then a large number of Japanese began to approach the city wall.

Commander Zhan of the 81st Division personally supervised the battle and repelled several attacks by the Japanese.

At the same time, Han Paopao, who had performed poorly later, behaved like a man this time and pulled three divisions to the west of De County to block the Japanese reinforcements.

Jicheng.

Han Xiangfang's official residence.

Han Xiangfang was seen walking around in the detention room in military uniform.

After a while, an adjutant waved a telegram and said, "Commander, Commander! More than half of the troops on the front line have been lost. The enemy's artillery fire is fierce. The brothers can't rush forward at all. If the fighting continues like this, our team will be destroyed!"

Han Xiangfang took the translated telegram and glanced at it.

"Damn it! Where's the heavy artillery brigade that the old man promised! Where's the heavy artillery brigade! Where's the heavy artillery brigade!"

The adjutant stammered, "Some say that the heavy artillery brigade was sent to..."

"Where was he sent to?"

"The heavy artillery brigade has been sent to Commander Tang!"

Han Xiangfang was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood.

He knew that the old man didn't trust him, but he didn't expect the old man to be so cruel. Even at this time, he was still using tricks!

Since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust!

"Order the frontline troops to retreat immediately! The old man wants us to be cannon fodder, but he can dream on!"

Later, when Han Paopao faced the Japanese invaders approaching Ji City, he fled without fighting and will definitely be a sinner for all eternity.

But the old man is not clean here either.

Last year, Erhu launched a military rebellion, and Han Xiangfang sent a telegram to support Erhu, and even threatened to send troops to cut off the retreat of He Jingzhi's troops.

Although the matter was resolved later, Han Paopao and the old man still had a grudge against each other.

This time, the old man first transferred all the artillery units under Han Paopao and handed them over to the command of the Sixth War Zone. In order to appease Han Paopao, he promised him an elite heavy artillery brigade, but in the end he did not give it to him.

On the surface, it is a unified dispatch for the sake of the overall situation, but what the old man really thinks, probably only he himself knows.

De County.

Division Commander Zhan was already having a hard time fighting, but by the afternoon, the Japanese offensive not only did not weaken, but became more and more fierce.

He quickly realized that the Han troops responsible for containing the enemy's firepower on the west side of De County had retreated!

De County has become an isolated city!

"Damn you Han Xiangfang, you will die a miserable death!"

Then, Division Commander Zhan shouted at the officers and soldiers who were still defending the city, "Brothers, perhaps we will die here! Those who are not afraid of death, follow me, there is no need to save ammunition, fire all the bullets, throw all the grenades, even if you have to bite them with your teeth, you have to bite off a piece of flesh from the Japanese!"

"If anyone is afraid of death, I won't stop him. Retreat, retreat to Jicheng, retreat to Jinling, retreat to Shancheng, but one day, we will have nowhere to retreat!"

"Sir, I'm not afraid of death!"

"Report to the commander! We are not afraid of death!"

"Okay! Adjutant! Organize a suicide squad to hold back the Japanese for a while. Everyone else, follow me to the city to prepare. Once the Japanese enter the city, we will fight them in street battles!"

The artillery fire became more intense.

Soon, a big hole was blown in the city wall near Xiaoxi Gate.

The Japs came in like a tide.

The suicide squad on the city wall soon ran out of ammunition, and under the leadership of their commander, they engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese troops who rushed into the city.

Then, tough street fighting began.

Every step forward the Japs have to pay a huge price.

The battle lasted until the early morning of the next day. The 81st Division was almost wiped out, and the 485th Regiment, which was engaged in street fighting in the city, was completely wiped out and all of its soldiers were killed.

Commander Zhan was wounded and unconscious, and evacuated southward under the protection of several guards.

...

mountain city.

For the first time ever, Boss Dai started drinking in the office.

He really didn't expect this to be the final result.

Even though they had figured out the enemy's combat deployment, De County only lasted one day.

He kept cursing Han Xiangfang in his heart.

"Incompetent, stupid, useless!"

Outside the office, Mao Dacheng and others looked at each other, not daring to make any sound.

The situation has turned out to be like this, is the country really going to be destroyed?

...........

Lin Ze had no time to pay attention to the war in the distance.

Apart from listening to shortwave radio privately, he could not get any useful information.

Apart from gossip, newspapers in Peking reported on some major victory won by the Imperial Army in such and such a place.

He was urgently summoned to the gendarmerie headquarters by Kitahara Ransuke.

There were many people in Kitahara Ransuke's office, including his grandson Nimatsu Daisei.

Kitahara Ransuke had red eyes and was breathing heavily.

Lin Ze took a look and thought, could it be that he took too much medicine?

Kitahara Ransuke waved his arms excitedly like a wild boar seeing a cornfield.

"Big fish! There is a big fish hiding in Beiping! And we have found his traces!"

"This time, we must act as quickly as possible to catch this big fish. Everyone must put down everything at hand and listen to my command. Colonel Matsuzaki is here in person, and even the headquarters has sent orders. Everyone must take it seriously!"

When Lin Ze heard this, he was shocked. Could it be that the stationmaster of the Peking Station has been exposed?

What kind of high-ranking official must he be to make Kitahara Ransuke so excited!

However, Kitahara Ransuke said that even the headquarters had sent orders.

Even if we want to arrest the chief of the Secret Service’s Peking Station, there’s no need to alert the headquarters, right?
