Chapter 193 Commander Sun’s judgment and worries!
"Your Excellency, the Division Commander, the 66th Regiment requests to fight. Tomorrow, the 66th Regiment is willing to be the first to attack Chidong County."
The commander of the 66th Regiment looked at the division commander, Takeshi Arai, and bowed to ask for battle.
"Okay." Arai Tianwu nodded when he heard that.
Originally, Shinida Takeshi was planning to let the 66th Regiment attack Chidong County first.
"Your Excellency, if we don't deal with the Tiger Guards' artillery and attack Chidong County, our division will suffer heavy casualties."
"So he thought he could request air support from headquarters."
Chief of Staff Ike Kyukazu had been silent until now. After seeing Arai Takeshi finish his conversation with the regiment commander, he spoke to Arai Takeshi.
In fact, what Xin Tianwu could think of was that if the artillery unit of the Tiger Guard Division was not eliminated, the division's attack would suffer heavy casualties.
Then Chief of Staff Ike Kyuho could certainly also think of it.
"Ikehisa Kazuya, send a request for support to the headquarters and tell Commander Yoshio Shinozuka that my 37th Division will capture Iketo County tomorrow."
"I will also personally kill the Tiger Guards' commander, Zhou Weimin."
"Tomorrow morning at nine o'clock, our division will launch an attack, and at eight o'clock in the morning, I hope the air group can launch a bombing mission."
After hearing what Chief of Staff Kazuya Ikegami said, Takeshi Araida thought for a moment and then said lightly.
In Xin Jingtian Wu's opinion, as long as the artillery of the Tiger Guard Division was destroyed, it would only take a few hours to capture Chidong County.
The Tiger Guards' fighting force was not that strong.
The strength of the Tiger Guards lies in their weapons and equipment.
"Hi!" Chief of Staff Ike Kyukazu also bowed and nodded after hearing what Arai Takeshi said, then left.
After Chief of Staff Ike Jiuhe also left.
Araida Takeuchi said to the commander of the 66th Regiment, "Tomorrow morning at nine o'clock, you will personally lead the 66th Regiment to launch an offensive."
"I want you to capture the first line of defense as quickly as possible to wash away your shame today."
After hearing this, the captain quickly bowed and said, "Hi!"
......
the other side.
Residents in Chidong County were all paying close attention to the battle situation.
After learning that the Tiger Guards Division had repelled the Japanese attack, they were all delighted.
But the residents of Chidong County also knew that the battle had not officially begun yet.
The Japanese are still surrounding Chidong County, and the battle will start again tomorrow.
The residents were all looking forward to the soldiers of the Tiger Guard Division defeating the Japanese and defending Chidong County.
Meanwhile, intelligence personnel from various armies in Chidong County reported back on the battles between the Tiger Guards Division and the Japanese 37th Division.
Qiao Family Courtyard.
After the battle between the Tiger Guard Division and the 66th Regiment ended, Sun Chu came to Qiao Anbang's yard.
When he saw Qiao Anbang, he asked, "Brother Qiao, does your Qiao family have an air-raid shelter?"
After hearing what Sun Chu said, Qiao Anbang was slightly stunned, and then he quickly said to Sun Chu: "Commander Sun, how could our Qiao family have an air-raid shelter!"
"We, the Qiao family, are serious businessmen. How could we dig an air-raid shelter at home?"
Qiao Anbang didn't know what Sun Chu meant, but the Qiao family did not have any air-raid shelters.
"No bomb shelter?"
"The Qiao family has such a big yard, but they don't have an air-raid shelter?"
"Okay, if there's no air-raid shelter, then there's no air-raid shelter. Does your Qiao family have any secret rooms to defend against bombing?"
After hearing what Qiao Anbang said, Sun Chu frowned slightly and asked again.
Normally, after the Japanese invaders entered Shanxi, many wealthy businessmen in the area dug air-raid shelters in their homes.
But the Qiao family didn't dig an air-raid shelter, which made Sun Chu a little puzzled.
However, if there is no air-raid shelter, a secret secret room will do.
"Commander Sun, what's going on?"
"Are you worried that the Japanese will bomb Chidong County? How is that possible?"
"There are still Tiger Guards outside Chidong County, so the Japanese artillery shells can't reach Chidong County."
After hearing what Sun Chu said, Qiao Anbang was stunned again, and then spoke loudly.
Sun Chu was worried that the Japanese would bomb Chidong County, but Qiao Anbang felt that this was unlikely unless the Tiger Guards retreated into the city.
But now the Tiger Guards have stopped the Japs!
"Brother Qiao, tell me if there is any shell-proof secret room in your Qiao family compound?"
"I'll tell you the rest later."
"If your Qiao Family Compound doesn't have a shell-proof secret room, then we will leave the Qiao Family Compound."
Sun Chu didn't explain anything to Qiao Anbang, but looked at Qiao Anbang and said.
"Commander Sun, the Qiao family does have a secret room, but this secret room can't protect against artillery shells!" Qiao Anbang thought for a while and said after hearing this.
In fact, the Qiao family has a secret room to defend against artillery shells, which is the tunnel leading to the outside of Chidong County.
The entrance to the Qiao family's tunnel leading to the outside of Chidong County is a secret room designed to defend against artillery shells.
But this secret room is Qiao Anbang's retreat, and it was also prepared by Qiao Anbang for Qiao Linwei.
So Qiao Anbang would not tell Sun Chu.
"Brother Qiao, why don't you prepare?"
"Have you never worried that the Japs might bomb Chidong County?"
After hearing what Qiao Anbang said, Sun Chu looked at Qiao Anbang carefully and said.
Sun Chu really didn't expect Qiao Anbang's answer.
"Commander Sun, what is going on? Is the Tiger Guard Division going to retreat to Chidong County?" Qiao Anbang looked at Sun Chu and said after hearing this.
At this moment, Qiao Anbang was really confused.
"Brother Qiao, I'm worried that the Japanese will send planes to bomb Chidong County tomorrow, so we have to prepare in advance!"
"You are also aware of the battle between the Tiger Guards and the Japanese just now."
"The Japanese suffered a great loss, all because of the Tiger Guards' heavy artillery."
"So the Japanese will definitely find a way to destroy the Tiger Guards Division's heavy artillery, and sending planes to bomb is the most effective and simple way."
After hearing what Qiao Anbang said, Sun Chu looked a little worried.
Sun Chu was very clear about the battle between the Tiger Guards and the Japanese, and he also made some judgments.
So Sun Chu thought that the Japanese would definitely send planes to bomb the Tiger Guards' heavy artillery.
The Tiger Guards Division had some heavy artillery positions inside the city.
"This? This is unlikely, right?" Qiao Anbang said hesitantly after hearing Sun Chu's words.
"Not too possible?"
"I, Sun Chu, have fought against the Japs for several years, so I know a lot about them."
"I have an 80% feeling that the Japanese will definitely send planes to Chidong County tomorrow."
"So, Brother Qiao, we must be prepared for air defense."
"Besides, this isn't the first time the Japanese have sent planes to bomb Zhou Weimin. They did it just a few days ago when he was on the road."
Seeing that Qiao Anbang was a little unconvinced, Sun Chu stepped forward and spoke loudly to Qiao Anbang.
And Sun Chu has already made his decision.
Regardless of whether Qiao Anbang leaves the Qiao family compound or not, Sun Chu will leave the Qiao family compound.
