Are you a spy? Killing the enemy is too cruel.

Chapter 444 Encirclement and Annihilation Plan

Looking at Nara, who looked depressed, the division commander Ninomiya Kato said, "Nara-kun, what do you have to worry about? Do you think that our Fifth Division will lose to a Chinese regiment in this Panshui River battlefield?"

Nara said, "We can win, but the casualties are too great."

Ninomiya Kato said, "In war, there are always casualties. We have casualties, and so do the Chinese."

Nara had a complicated expression and said, "Division Commander, have you ever thought that with the same casualties ratio, the Chinese have the upper hand? After all, there are 400 million people on their land."

What this means is that even if Shenzhou’s troops lost 100 million soldiers in battle, they could continue to form new teams.

But what about Japan?

Every death means one less person. Their native land has a population of not 40 million, but only tens of millions.

Even if these tens of millions of people were killed.

But the number of Chinese people in China is too large, estimated to be at least 30 million.

"Damn it! There are so many Chinese people in this land of Shenzhou!"

Ninomiya Kato said angrily:

"When we launched a full-scale war, we should have done as Tojo-kun suggested and carried out a massacre every time we captured a city."

Nara was speechless. In fact, the Japanese Supreme Command did issue this order at that time.

The first one they wanted to attack was "Jinling."

According to the headquarters' order, in order to cut off the Chinese's determination to resist, the entire Nanjing was to be massacred.

They killed hundreds of thousands of Nanjing residents to show their might and demonstrate the power of the Japanese Empire.

But the plan fell through.

The reason is very simple, because a young Chinese man suddenly appeared and turned the tide of the war with his own strength.

This person is Ye Feng.

It was precisely because of Ye Feng's resolute resistance and the gathering and winning over of multiple troops that the Japanese plan of the "Nanjing Massacre" was shattered.

…………

in the afternoon.

The north bank of the Panshui River is a scorched earth.

In the position.

Before the enemy's next wave of offensive arrived, Ye Feng and other regiment and battalion commanders held an emergency combat meeting.

"In the next battle, we will not be able to stop the crazy attack of the Japanese no matter what."

As soon as Ye Feng opened his mouth, he set the tone for the matter.

"Commander, are we going to evacuate our position and move to the rear?" Song Yu continued:

"Once the Japanese cross the Panshui River, the terrain to the north will be almost all plains, and there will be no strategic locations to defend."

Ye Feng said, "If we continue to defend our position, none of our soldiers will survive."

These were several defensive battles.

Their regiment suffered heavy losses.

The regiment consists of 3000 people, with a total of 4 battalions. Now each battalion is almost crippled and incomplete.

Especially the Stone Beach position at the uppermost reaches.

The battalion led by Zheng Hua had a team of 800 people, but now less than 200 people are alive, and everyone is injured.

After statistics.

Currently, there are barely 1000 people in this regiment who can still engage in combat, and they have to defend several directions.

The next battle.

If they continue to fight to the death, only one of these fighters will survive.

This is the result that Ye Feng does not want to see. He has to kill the enemy, but he also has to preserve his own manpower.

Luo Daqian, the reconnaissance platoon leader, said, "Division Commander, the preliminary statistics are out. On the enemy side, the death toll is about 7000, and the number of injured cannot be counted. The death ratio between the enemy and us is about 1:4." Originally, this ratio should have been 1:5, because many of their soldiers were seriously injured in the face of the enemy's bombardment and had to evacuate the battlefield and go to the rear for treatment.

After listening to this, Ye Feng fell into silence.

In his opinion, the anti-Japanese armed forces had not received professional military training and their combat effectiveness was still weak.

You know, among these 7000 Japanese devils, Ye Feng alone killed nearly 5000 enemies.

Yes.

It was Ye Feng who was guarding the middle lane and killing everyone in his way.

He single-handedly killed almost an entire Japanese regiment to drag the war to the present moment.

Zheng Hua said, "Commander, the Japanese intention is very clear now. They want to march straight into Shanghai and drive our anti-Japanese forces out of Shanghai. If we abandon our positions, there will be no defenses in the rear. What should we do?"

Ye Feng said, "Don't worry, follow my combat orders, and the end of the Japanese Fifth Division will come soon."

what?

Are you going to eat up the Fifth Division?

Several people around couldn't help but gasp and were deeply shocked by Ye Feng's words.

"Division Commander, our troops now have too many wounded soldiers. There are less than 1000 soldiers who can fight. Can we destroy a Japanese division?"

"According to the scouts' report, the Fifth Division lost 7000 men, plus the 1.5 wounded, which still leaves them with elite troops. With so few men, I'm afraid we can only passively defend!"

"Division Commander, you asked us to widen the dirt road in the rear and raise the steep slopes on both sides in order to carry out an annihilation war."

"There are 1000 of us, and we have to eat up 1.5 enemies. It feels like a snake swallowing an elephant. It's difficult!"

Ye Feng waved his hand, interrupting everyone's discussion.

Then he looked at Song Yu, "Captain Song, next, you will carry out an extremely difficult task."

"I will give you a company to hide in the dark. After the Japanese Fifth Division crosses the Panshui River, you will blow up all the bridges to block the Japanese retreat."

"Remember, you have a limited number of people, so come up with some practical plans."

"As long as you block the enemy's retreat, we might be able to completely wipe out the Fifth Division in this battle."

"Make sure to complete the mission."

Song Yu said confidently, and asked curiously, "Commander, how do you plan to ambush the enemy?"

Ye Feng said, "Use biological and chemical gas bombs. I will ask you to widen and raise the dirt road to force the Japanese into this road of no return. Then, we will fire more than a hundred gas bombs to cover the entire dirt road. Once the terrible poisonous smoke spreads, the Japanese will suffer heavy casualties, and those who survive will also struggle to escape in panic."

"Zheng Hua, I'll give you a company to guard the left side of the dirt road. Captain Liu, I'll also give you a company to guard the right side of the dirt road."

"You two have an equally difficult mission. Keep the Japanese below the dirt road and don't let them climb up to break through. In order to complete the mission, I will give you enough protective masks."

"I will lead the remaining company myself. When the poisonous smoke dissipates, I will lead the troops and charge into the dirt road. We will try to kill the enemy and scare them so much that they will have no choice but to retreat."

……

Song Yu was stunned by Ye Feng's plan, "Commander, where do we get so many biological and chemical gas bombs?"

Ye Feng did not explain, and said, "Gather your troops immediately and withdraw from the battlefield quietly."

Half an hour later, it was already evening and the night was gradually darkening.

"Boom~~~"

Once again, countless artillery shells, like a rainstorm, poured down the north bank of the river, bombarding the very essence of the anti-Japanese armed forces.

The Japanese Fifth Division once again launched a full-scale fortification operation.

More than 10,000 people were divided into six groups and attacked Panshui River.

However, when the Japanese soldiers took action, they found that the position on the north bank was surprisingly quiet and no one fired back.

"Oh no! The Chinese must have retreated!"

Division Commander Ninomiya Kato immediately issued a new combat order to all divisions:

"The troops are divided into three parts: front, middle and rear, each with 5000 soldiers, to pursue the fleeing Chinese."
