Chapter 183 The Japs arrived at Chidong County!
Did Sun Chu use his power to oppress Qiao Anbang?
Of course, but Qiao Anbang was also willing to let Qiao Linwei marry Zhou Weimin.
So it's not a big deal.
Although Sun Chu used his power to oppress Qiao Anbang, he also gave Qiao Anbang enough face.
It’s just that Zhou Weimin is not very clear about these things, so Zhou Weimin’s ideas are different from Sun Chu’s.
But as long as these things don't affect the relationship between Zhou Weimin and Qiao Linwei, it's fine.
When Zhou Weimin's convoy arrived at the military camp, he no longer thought about these things.
For the next hour or so.
Zhou Weimin held a military meeting. At the meeting, Liu Feng, Wang Dali, Sun Hu and Wu Qianli all expressed their tactical suggestions.
Zhou Weimin agreed with all these tactical suggestions.
Zhou Weimin also issued formal combat missions to Liu Feng, Wang Dali, Sun Hu, and Wu Qianli.
at noon.
After the soldiers finished their lunch, Wu Qianli's Guard Regiment and Wang Dali and Sun Hu's Third Regiment set out for the positions outside Chidong County.
Liu Feng's regiment also walked out of the military camp, declared martial law in Chidong County, and completely placed Chidong County under military control.
Xu Hu's guard battalion is still guarding Zhou Weimin.
For a time, the Chidong County was filled with soldiers from the Tiger Guard Division.
One p.m.
The Tiger Guards Division had made all preparations and was waiting for the Japanese 37th Division to arrive at Chidong County.
......
Just when the Tiger Guards Division was ready to meet the attack of the 37th Division of the Japanese.
The vanguard of the Japanese 37th Division is approaching Chidong County.
Of course, this vanguard force only consists of one battalion.
Around two o'clock in the afternoon.
The Japanese vanguard officially arrived outside Chidong County.
However, after seeing the attack outside Chidong County.
The captain of the vanguard immediately telegraphed the situation to the commander of the 37th Division, Takeshi Araiida.
"What? The Chinese actually gave up defending Chidong County and are preparing to fight us outside of Chidong County?"
"Arrogant Chinese, arrogant Tiger Guards!"
Arata Takeshi cursed as he looked at the telegram handed over by Chief of Staff Ike Kyuha.
In Xin Jingtian Wu's opinion, there is not much difference between the Tiger Guard Division and the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army.
The only difference is that the weapons of the Tiger Guards are better.
But the combat quality of the soldiers was far inferior to that of the empire's soldiers, so when he learned that the Tiger Guards did not rely on the city walls to fight him.
It felt like the Tiger Guards looked down on him, Shin Iida Takeshi, and his 37th Division.
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, according to the telegram from the Matsuda Battalion, this Zhou Weimin has set up three lines of defense outside Chidong County."
"Judging from Zhou Weimin's deployment, it seems the Tiger Guards intend to fight a decisive battle with our 37th Division outside Chidong County."
After hearing what Araiida Takeshi said, Chief of Staff Ike Kyukazu bowed to Araiida Takeshi and said.
In fact, Chief of Staff Ike Kyukazu shared the same idea as Arai Tianwu, believing that the Tiger Guard Division only had better weapons.
However, the combat quality of the soldiers is completely inferior to that of the empire's soldiers.
"A fight to the death? Haha..." Arai Tianwu said with a look of disdain on his face after hearing this.
You should know that his 37th Division is a standard elite first-class division.
This included three infantry regiments, a field artillery regiment, an engineering regiment, a cavalry company, and a logistics regiment, totaling 26,000 people.
And what about the Tiger Guards in Chidong County?
According to the intelligence from the headquarters' Special High Technology Department, there are only about 10,000 people.
No matter how you look at it, it was his 37th Division that crushed the Tiger Guard Division in Chidong County.
Arata Takeshi is not a Japanese aristocrat, he has risen step by step.
Therefore, what Xin Jingtian Wu believes in is strength above all else. In Xin Jingtian Wu's view, it is necessary to deal with the Tiger Guards of Chidong County.
All it takes is one brigade.
However, Commander Yoshio Shinozuka seemed to be crazy and actually mobilized the entire division, which was really a waste of talent.
"Order the troops to speed up the march." Arai Tianwu said with a disdainful smile.
After saying that, Arai Tianwu raised his wrist and looked at it. It was now 2:10 in the afternoon.
They will arrive at Chidong County at 3:30 in the afternoon.
It took Shinjida Takeshi three hours to defeat the Tiger Guards and he would rest in Chidong County at night.
"Hi!" Chief of Staff Chi Jiuhe also nodded in response.
But Chief of Staff Chi Jiuhe did not leave to convey the order. Instead, he hesitated and said, "Your Excellency, Division Commander, we have been traveling for a whole day and night."
"We are only an hour's journey from Chidong County. Do we need to take a break?"
"Wait until the soldiers recover their strength before heading to Chidong County to launch the attack."
Chief of Staff Chi Jiuhe also felt that this time they were the Tiger Guard Division that crushed Chidong County.
But some preparation still needs to be done.
"idiot!"
"You're questioning me!"
After hearing what Ikegami Kazuya said, Araida Takeshi shouted angrily.
"Your Excellency, the division commander, I don't have any."
"I just thought the soldiers needed a rest, and the field artillery regiment is still at the back of the team."
"We can let the soldiers rest and wait for the field artillery regiment to arrive."
"Wait until the field artillery regiment arrives before sending out to Chidong County and launching an attack upon reaching Chidong County. This will be more effective."
After hearing Araitake's angry rebuke, Chi Jiuhe also bowed and said.
In fact, Ikejiuhe did nothing wrong.
However, Ike Kyuhe also underestimated Araiida Takeshi's confidence, as Araiida Takeshi's confidence came from the strength of the 37th Division.
In the eyes of Takeshi Shinida, his 37th Division is capable of crushing the Tiger Guard Division.
"idiot!"
"Could it be that the soldiers of the Empire cannot fight without artillery?"
"We are facing only a Chinese force of less than 10,000 people!"
After hearing what Ikegami Kazuya said, Araida Takeshi continued to scold.
But right now.
A telegraph operator received a telegram from the Special High Technology Bureau.
After the telegraph operator saw the telegram, he immediately handed it to the telegraph staff officer.
The Japanese telegraph staff came to Arai Takeshi without any hesitation and handed the telegram to him.
Arata Takeshi took the telegram and took a look at it, his expression changed slightly, and then he handed the telegram to Chief of Staff Ike Kyushu.
Then he turned to Chief of Staff Ikegami Kazuya and said, "According to your suggestion, order the troops to rest for half an hour and wait for the field artillery regiment."
Why did Arai Takeshi slap himself in the face?
That's because the content of the telegram from the Special High Technology Bureau stated that the Tiger Guard Division in Chidong County possessed many heavy weapons and artillery.
This forced Arata Takeshi to wait for the field artillery regiment.
After all, it would be shameful to wipe out a Chinese army of less than 10,000 people if the army suffered heavy casualties.
"Hi!" Chief of Staff Chi Jiuhe also nodded in response, and then looked at the telegram in his hand.
After seeing the telegram, his face changed slightly, and then he went to convey the order.
