Chapter 998 Shall I Wait to Die With You?
"What's wrong with you?"
Takeshita Shun walked over to him, squatted down, and lit a cigarette with the butt of his cigarette to keep Zhou Weiguo company.
Stroking his buzz cut with a bored expression, Zhou Weiguo took two deep drags on his cigarette and then said in a dazed, introspective tone, "I haven't done anything that would anger heaven and man, so why are they targeting me like this?"
Made.
Takeshita Shun turned and left. Listen to this guy, is he even speaking human language? He actually said that he didn't do anything that would anger heaven and man.
Back then, the Setani Detachment was routed on the outskirts of Fuji Prefecture, and the 14th Division's headquarters was surrounded. If it weren't for the fact that the forces at the time were not strong enough to wipe them out, they would not have survived at all.
I thought this person had encountered some major setback, but it turned out to be something like this, so I have nothing to say to them.
He got up and lay down on the bed next to him.
He'd be better off sleeping than doing this; who knows what would happen if a fight broke out.
fight.
The vanguard has already engaged the Independent Brigade's forces.
Hearing the booming sounds of cannons and gunfire ahead, Seya felt a little nervous and also harbored resentment towards Togo Heiichi, who was looking at a map not far away.
He had said before that the other side was not so easy to deal with, but he simply didn't listen and continued to lead his troops toward the Fifth War Zone Command Headquarters.
As a result, after breaking through the Guangxi Army's defenses, the Fifth War Zone Command did indeed panic, and a large number of units retreated to the south.
Yes, at that time he also believed that the time had come for the Setani Detachment to take revenge.
But in reality, all of this was fake. The withdrawal of the Guangxi Army was fake, and the chaotic relocation of the Fifth War Zone was also fake.
He even suspected that this was a conspiracy from the very beginning, a conspiracy that began when Zhou Weiguo started to retaliate against Tang Junjun.
He also resented himself for not sticking to his own opinion and refusing to get involved in this mess with Togo Heiichiro.
Now things are different. The Independent Brigade has deployed its defenses in the Xiaoliuzhuang area. After receiving the news, the reconnaissance plane immediately sensed that something was wrong, even before he had fully figured out the problem.
The 13th and 59th Armies under Tang's command, along with an independent division of the Guangxi Army, suddenly launched an encirclement. They constructed defensive fortifications nearly ten kilometers behind the independent brigade.
His intuition told him that this time, the Fifth War Zone was going to devour him and the 14th Division.
Seeing Togo Heiichiro's calm demeanor, Seya was anything but calm and said to his adjutant, "Let's go and take a look ahead."
Relying on this person, the chances are probably not very high.
Boom boom... boom boom boom...
A dozen minutes later, Seya arrived at the forward command post.
Upon witnessing the roar of artillery fire, the flying bombs, and the air battles between the two sides, one could see the two sides engaged in combat.
Setani paced back and forth in the dusty command post, his hands behind his back. "What to do? What to do now?"
He seemed to realize that his panic made the officers present somewhat nervous.
He walked over to the map, brushed off the dust, and asked, "Any news about the air force?"
"not yet."
Oh no, the reconnaissance plane has already been intercepted by the other side?
The more Setani thought about it, the more uneasy he felt. Just then, Togo Heiichiro walked in, no longer caring that his emotions would affect those present.
“We were fooled from the very beginning. Everything they did was to lure us in and then shut us down…”
He didn't dare say the words "beat the dog," but everyone could understand what he meant by the last two words.
Heiichiro Togo nodded; "I can see that they have big ambitions, but in the end they overestimated themselves."
They want to wipe out an entire division and a detachment of ours? I don't know where they get the courage. Do they really think the soldiers of the Empire are pushovers?
He went up to the roadside and observed it with binoculars; "Back then, the resistance in places like Shanghai, Nanjing, and Wuhan was also fierce, but in the end, we occupied them all. All of this was only temporary."
At this point, he came to Seya's side and said, "The 10th Division is already on its way. They will reach the outer perimeter as quickly as possible and launch an attack on Tang's army. I think they will soon become history under our two-pronged attack."
"You want to act as bait here?" Seya finally understood. This guy still didn't understand where the ruthlessness of the Independent Brigade lay.
Heiichiro Togo pointed into the distance; "Don't you think this is the best opportunity to wipe out his Independent Brigade in one fell swoop?"
I don't think so, I just think you're dreaming.
Setani felt there was nothing more to say to this person, so he returned to his command post and went to the map.
The more he drove, the more he felt things weren't so simple.
If it were the old Tomlin army, they might have actually made way for them, but things are different now.
Tang Juntuan was someone Zhou Weiguo almost killed, and the Fifth War Zone had long intended to eliminate him. If he dared to give way this time, it wouldn't be long before Zhou Weiguo took his head.
As for Shancheng, they won't do anything to Zhou Weiguo just because of Tang Paopao.
"We can't go on like this. If we do, we're afraid the 14th Division will drag us down."
He understood what they had just said. The 14th Division intended to wait for rescue here.
He figured waiting wouldn't lead to a solution, so he needed to find another way out.
After looking at the map for a while, Seya took a deep breath and said, "We can't just sit here and wait to die. We need to evacuate via another route."
Even if this road is under the control of the Fifth War Zone, it is still better than going head-to-head with the Independent Brigade.
Another point.
With the 14th Division here, the Independent Brigade and the elite forces of the Fifth War Zone are unlikely to be mobilized to deal with us. What we need to deal with are just some of their local troops.
I may not be able to fight an offensive and defensive battle against an independent brigade and a well-equipped central army, but against their local forces, the advantage will definitely be on my side.
Staying here might allow me to wait until the 10th Division arrives, but it could also mean being devoured. I need to find a way out; maybe I can escape.
"What do you think?" Seya's gaze fell on his several regimental commanders before pointing to the map. "Should we wait for rescue here, or should we find another way out? Now, I need to hear your opinions. Should we leave or stay?"
