The deputy couldn't help but speak first.

"Hai!"

"General!"

"I've heard of this Second Army Group before. Its strength is not to be underestimated. It held off an imperial army of over 100,000 men in the Central Plains Theater with just one army group!"

"General, this..."

The deputy looked troubled.

An army group had already achieved a balance of power, or rather, had inflicted a great blow on their own side, but their mission was to hold Shanhaiguan Pass.

After all, there was a significant difference in troop strength.

However, if we add the Second Army Group that came as reinforcements, then with the strength of two army groups, we would be fully capable of launching a counterattack.

Until then……

After his deputy finished speaking, Suzuki's face turned completely bloodless.

He was clearly deep in thought.

After a few breaths.

"Contact the Marine Corps!"

"Requesting a call with Marshal Okamura!"

Suzuki said with a solemn expression.

"Hai!"

"General Suzuki, are we requesting reinforcements?"

"It's a deep voice," the deputy said.

"No!"

"This is just a preliminary report on the situation at Qindao Port!"

"The Battle of Qindao Port has been lost; there is no point in reaching Qindao Port now!"

"The most important task now is for the Empire to open up its transportation lines!"

"General! You mean...?"

A flash of inspiration struck the deputy, but he couldn't quite grasp it, and he spoke subconsciously.

"If Marshal Okamura gathers all the forces of the dispatched army, what do you think the chances of success are?" Suzuki asked expressionlessly.

"Gather all forces?"

"General!"

"You mean to confine the New Third Front Army to the three northeastern provinces?"

The deputy suddenly realized what was happening and said.

The New Third Front Army has extraordinary combat capabilities, but if we feign weakness now and lure them all to the three northeastern provinces.

We will spare no effort to confine it to the three northeastern provinces.

If Marshal Okamura were to mobilize all of the Empire's dispatched troops in China, he would be fully capable of opening up the so-called transportation lines in a very short time.

After all, the empire still had nearly 600,000 troops remaining as its main force within China.

Once this force is assembled, the so-called mountain city army and local troops of China will have no chance of resisting it.

The only force capable of resisting was the New Third Army, but the New Third Army was located outside the Great Wall.

"Ok!"

Suzuki nodded in a deep voice. ......

He was not one of the other imperial commanders, as evidenced by the fact that General Umezu left the pass and left him behind to oversee the main camp.

Now, China's new three armies have a significant advantage in terrain and are supported by a large reserve force.

Continuing this will only increase casualties.

"Hai!"

"But General!"

"The new Third Front Army will definitely come out of the pass; they have already sent a telegram!"

"The difficulty lies in whether we can confine them to the three northeastern provinces. After all, once they return to reinforce, we simply..."

The deputy hesitated before speaking.

It's easy to draw the battlefield to the three provinces of Kanto, but once Marshal Okamura launches his operation, the new three armies will inevitably re-enter the pass.

Who can stop them?

Seemingly sensing his deputy's guess, Suzuki waved his hand and said directly, "With the troops we have right now, it's definitely not enough!"

"But we're not the only ones in the three northeastern provinces!"

Suzuki seemed to be implying something.

"General!"

"what do you mean?"

"Heilongjiang Province!"

"As long as we retreat to our position in Heilongjiang Province!"

"There's always a chance!"

Suzuki took a deep breath and said.

"Heilongjiang Province?"

"General! You're not talking about war, are you?" The lieutenant swallowed hard.

If there's any chance of a turnaround in Heilongjiang Province, then only the fighting nation remains!

But then, as if remembering something, he said, "General! This fighting nation is unlikely!"

"After all, given our relationship with the Fighting Nation, and the Fighting Nation's stance during the battle in the Fengtian region, it seems..."

The conflict between the Empire and the Warring States is irreconcilable, stemming from both old and new grudges.

In fact, when the New Third Front Army attacked Fengtian, General Umezu could have directly annihilated it.

The reason for this is the influence of the fighting nation.

Finally, there were still over 100,000 troops left outside the pass, also to guard against the fighting nation.

But now the general means that the combat council will help our side?

"not that simple!"

"The reason for this was indeed due to past grievances between the Empire and the Warring Kingdom!"

"But given the current situation, the fighting nation will not allow China to take back the three northeastern provinces!"

"After all, everyone knows how enormous the war potential of a unified China is!"

Suzuki spoke in a deep voice.

Chapter 273 Old Chu, you've become a damn rich man?! Li Yunlong was dumbfounded! [Please subscribe automatically!]

The history of China is so long!

Even now, with the empire wreaking havoc on this land, no one believes that this ancient nation will simply sink into ruin.

Therefore, the empire is already looking for a way out.

But the neighboring fighting nation is different.

Once China rises up, they will be the ones most threatened.

Therefore, even if there is deep-seated hatred between the Empire and the Warring States, they are unlikely to send troops to interfere under these circumstances.

Furthermore, given the nature of this nation, they have been coveting the lands of the three northeastern provinces for quite some time.

If the new three armies of China really took control of the three northeastern provinces.

All of the fighting nation's efforts were in vain.

After all, they wanted a legitimate and aboveboard opportunity.

However, if it were to be taken from China, it would inevitably be morally untenable.

"Hai!"

After a moment of contemplation, the deputy quickly straightened his back.

But the words had barely left his mouth!

boom!

Boom boom!
