Chapter 422: Strike first to gain the upper hand
Northern Province Fortress.
Mitsui Yanagita, who had just fallen asleep, was hurriedly woken up from his bed by his adjutant, Yano Taiji.
The reason was the attack on the 1st Division.
This instantly woke up Mitsui Yanagida, who had been looking sleepy.
Upon hearing that the two division commanders had all been killed in action, Mitsui Yanagida could no longer hold back.
He slammed the water glass he had just been holding onto the ground.
"Oh!"
The sound of a water glass shattering echoed in Mitsui Yanagida's room.
"You idiot! Takayuki Yamada, that moron, didn't he know to send scouts on the march?"
At this moment, Mitsui Yanagida heard Yano Taiji's report.
He could no longer control the raging anger welling up inside him.
"Useless! Idiot!!"
Mitsui Yanagita's furious roar echoed throughout the entire command building.
The deaths of two Imperial lieutenant generals will undoubtedly deal a heavy blow to the morale of the Imperial army.
Moreover, this happened during a time of internal and external troubles.
Thinking of this, Mitsui Yanagida Yanagida was filled with rage.
He couldn't help but curse Yamada Takayuki, who had already turned to ashes, again.
"You idiot! Yamada Takayuki, you good-for-nothing, a glutton! A parasite on the empire!"
Upon hearing Mitsui Yanagida's angry outburst, Yano Taiji opened his mouth, intending to offer a defense for Yamada Takayuki, who had already turned to ashes.
But then he saw Mitsui Yanagida in a fit of rage.
Taiji Yano ultimately did not utter the words of defense for Takayuki Yamada.
After all, it's unwise to offend your direct superior for the sake of someone who has already died.
As Mitsui Yanagida gradually regained control of his anger, he immediately began to think of a solution.
For a moment, silence fell over Mitsui Yanagita's room once again.
Just as Yano Taiji was hesitating about whether he should clean the room first.
Mitsui Yanagida, who had been deep in thought, suddenly spoke up and gave an order.
"Yano, immediately send an order to Akita Tuyama, the chief of staff of the 3rd Division, and instruct him to take command of the 1st and 3rd Divisions."
"Proceed to Er City at full speed. We must be there before 9 a.m. this morning. Two days from now, I want to see the Imperial banners raised atop Er City's walls once more."
"Hi!"
Upon regaining his senses, Yano Taiji immediately bowed in response.
"In addition, I will send 400 warplanes to bomb Er City at dawn to assist him in attacking Er City."
"Hi!"
"Well, let's go."
After giving the order, Mitsui Yanagida waved to Yano Taiji.
Yano Taiji immediately accepted the order and turned to walk towards the door.
After Yano Taiji left, Mitsui Yanagida did not plan to continue resting.
Instead, he tightened the coat he was wearing, frowned, and hurried to his study.
After turning on the desk lamp in the room, he went straight to the wall of the study and studied the military topographic map of the Lingdong region hanging on the wall.
This topographic map shows the latest battle situation in the eastern region.
Today, they were driven back nearly 30 kilometers by the Bear Kingdom's steel army.
The defense line in the eastern region, which they now control, is less than 200 kilometers from the border.
If the Xiong Kingdom continues to advance at this pace...
The Xiong Kingdom could reach the gates of the Northern Province fortress in less than a week.
Thinking of this, Mitsui Yanagida couldn't help but sigh again.
At the same time, some complained about the strategic mistakes of their home base, saying they shouldn't have tried to attack the Xiong Kingdom.
Meanwhile, Silly Girl was driving the Cat Car to pick up Qin Lan and Silly Bear.
The two halves of a human and a beast were being chased by the Japanese soldiers and could only run north.
And they got lost.
They could only wait for Bai Luo and the others to come and pick them up in a secluded little ditch.
Meanwhile, Bai Luo, sitting in the passenger seat, closed his eyes and focused his consciousness on the battle results page.
"Battle over. The host has killed 3766 Japanese soldiers. Special kills included two Japanese lieutenant generals, two Japanese colonels, five Japanese lieutenant colonels, and four Japanese majors. Total points earned: 326080."
Upon seeing over 30 points, Bai Luo, with his eyes closed, couldn't help but smirk.
If you add the more than 10 points in the Silly Girl Points Bracelet.
Bai Luo's total points have now reached the million level again.
2:22 am.
After going around in circles again, Bai Luo and Sha Niu finally found the two of them, a human and a bear, fast asleep in a ditch.
Seeing that the two of them were filthy but had no cuts or scrapes on their bodies, Bai Luo breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, he was on tenterhooks when he fired the cannon.
I was afraid I might accidentally blow them both up.
Seeing the silly bear drooling all over the ground, Bai Luo jumped down into the ditch and woke up the man and the bear.
"Hmm... have you eaten yet?"
Awakened by the noise, Qin Lan half-closed her eyes and climbed up from the back of the silly bear.
He muttered to himself.
Bai Luo was so angry at Qin Lan's words that she laughed.
Too lazy to pay attention to Qin Lan, he pulled her off the bear's back.
I forced this glutton to turn on.
Five minutes later, Qin Lan and Sha Xiong were sitting on the back of the cat-themed car, each with a roasted chicken in their hands, munching away.
These two were clearly starving after a fierce battle that lasted half the night.
Bai Luo and Sha Niu were also made hungry by the sight of the two people eating.
After a moment's hesitation, Bai Luo decisively pulled over and took out two more roasted chickens from his storage space. He and Sha Niu each took one and joined the rice-eating team.
However, just as Bai Luo had finished half of the third roast chicken...
Bai Luo's communication bracelet vibrated again.
Bai Luo glanced down at his bracelet and realized that the caller was not Zhang Qing, as he had guessed.
It was his aunt, Bai Xiumei.
This made Bai Luo a little curious as to why her aunt would contact her at this hour when she wasn't asleep.
So he stuffed the half roast chicken in his hand into the mouth of the silly bear behind him, and rubbed his greasy hand on the bear's skin.
As a result, Bai Luo forgot that the silly bear at this time had been bombarded by him with cannonballs not long ago.
I got my hand covered in dust.
Bai Luo looked at his hands, which were originally oily but were now black.
My lips twitched involuntarily, but I couldn't care less about dealing with it now.
He connected the call directly with his dark, grimy fingers.
"Xiao Luo, did you attack the Japanese First Division tonight?"
As soon as the call connected, Bai Xiumei got straight to the point.
"Huh? Auntie, how did you know? Did Uncle Zhang tell you?"
"Don't interrupt me. I have my own channels. Now listen carefully to what I have to say."
I just received news that Mitsui Yanagida, commander of the North Province Fortress, has issued a death order that the Japanese 1st and 3rd Divisions will launch an attack tomorrow morning after arriving in Daer City.
He would also send 400 bombers to support the attack of the 1st and 3rd Divisions.
The goal is to capture Er City within two days.
Xiao Luo, you need to be prepared. The Japanese are coming in strong this time. If things get really bad, preserving your strength is the most important thing. Don't just hold out for Er City, understand?
After listening to her aunt's words, which were only partially understood, Bai Luo's eyes lit up instantly, and she quickly asked a question.
"Auntie, is your information accurate? Where did the Japanese send their planes from?"
"Of course it's the airport on the southeast side of the North Province Fortress. Most of the Japanese planes in the North Province are currently at the North Province Fortress."
"Okay, Auntie, I understand. Don't worry, I definitely won't act recklessly or stubbornly stick to my guns. Goodnight, muah!"
After saying this, Bai Luo hung up the phone.
Meanwhile, Bai Xiumei from Black Tiger Village stared in astonishment at the disconnected communication.
He was stunned for a long time before he finally burst out laughing.
"This little radish, I don't know where he learned such cheesy words."
Although Bai Xiumei said she was disgusted, she couldn't suppress the upturned corners of her mouth.
Bai Luo immediately contacted Zhang Qing after hanging up the call and explained the news to him.
After giving his instructions, Bai Luo turned his gaze northward.
He decided to strike first and blow up the Japanese airfield.
