Yamamoto Shigehisa besieged Kiyosu Castle, where both armies of the rival daimyos clashed.

  The artillery fire of the Yamamoto Brigade was too intense, and the 11th Division could hardly lift its head. The 11th Division suffered heavy casualties. Chen Hanyan shouted: "Commander, order our mortar battalion to counterattack! If not, we'll be finished!" Ge Wangshan also said: "Commander, we can order the mortar battalion to counterattack first, and the artillery battalion will hold back for now. Otherwise, the 11th Division won't be able to hold on much longer." Liu Chenzhou gritted his teeth and said: "Alright, order the mortar battalion to bombard the Yamamoto Brigade's artillery positions!" The commander of the mortar battalion, Na Fei, said: "Commander, it's not possible! The enemy has large-caliber mountain guns with a longer range than our Type 97 mortars. Their mountain guns are in the back, and our mortars can't reach them." Liu Chenzhou said: "Just take out their light and heavy machine gun firepower!" Na Fei shouted loudly: "Yes!" Liu Chenzhou returned to the command center, and at that moment, the mortar battalion fired a barrage of shells that accurately landed on the Yamamoto Brigade's light and heavy firepower. The enemy's firepower was instantly destroyed, one after another. Chen Hanyan exclaimed excitedly: "Now we're letting the little devils taste the flavor of being bombed!" However, everyone's excitement didn't last long, and soon they were all sighing in dismay. It turned out that Yamamoto had been desperately bombarding the 11th Division with mountain guns just to lure out their artillery battalion. When he saw that the enemy had finally opened fire to counterattack, Yamamoto was overjoyed and thought: "Liu Chenzhou, you've finally lost your temper! Now I'll let your artillery battalion be completely destroyed!"

  Yamamoto carefully observed the falling shells and bombing area of the howitzer battalion, the number of incoming shells at one time, and their accuracy. Finally, Yamamoto Shūichi confirmed that this was indeed the strongest firepower of the 11th Division's "God Cannon Battalion". It could also be said that the God Cannon Battalion was Liu Chenzhou's last trump card. If the God Cannon Battalion were to be defeated, the 11th Division's firepower would be greatly weakened and would no longer pose a significant threat to Yamamoto's unit.

  Yamamoto immediately ordered his artillery base to re-adjust their positions, calculate the trajectory, aim at the 11th Division's howitzer battalion, and fire fiercely. As a result, within half an hour, the howitzer battalion was completely annihilated.

  Liu Chenzhou stomped his feet and pounded his chest in distress, shouting: "I told you not to let the howitzer battalion counterattack! You had to make me order them to counterattack, and now my howitzer battalion is completely finished!" Ge Wangshan said: "Commander, don't be too distressed. Don't we still have the God Cannon Battalion?" Liu Chenzhou glared at him and shouted: "Go to hell! If I order the God Cannon Battalion to counterattack again, they will also be finished!"

  At this time, Qin Ming sent a telegram saying: "Commander, the enemy's firepower is too intense. My 3rd Brigade has suffered heavy casualties. What should we do?" Liu Chenzhou hastily replied: "Qin Ming, don't worry. I have already sent a telegram to Commander Chen Yiming requesting urgent reinforcements. You must hold on for me, even if only one person from the 3rd Brigade is left."

  Ge Wangshan shouted; Commander, at this rate, I'm afraid our 11th division will be completely annihilated! Liu Chenzhou said; Impossible, our 11th division has experienced over a hundred big and small battles, and more than a dozen times we were in desperate situations, but didn't we always manage to get through? Ge Wangshan said; Commander, this time is different from the previous dozen or so times, we are surrounded by the enemy's heavy troops, Yamamoto Shoyu will not let us break through alive. Liu Chenzhou said; If my guess is correct, our reinforcements should be arriving soon. Ge Wangshan shouted loudly; Even if the Flying Tiger Cavalry arrives, it's likely to be difficult to open up a gap, Commander, you're an old veteran, haven't you figured it out yet? The Yamamoto division seems to have been prepared for the Flying Tiger Cavalry, even if they arrive, it will only be like throwing sheep into the tiger's den. Liu Chenzhou smiled and said; Impossible, I'm very familiar with Jiang Zhifei and He Gang's abilities, especially that little He Gang, he's a true junior Zhuge, his wisdom and strategy are more brilliant than his martial arts, I believe this time we can also turn danger into safety, maybe we can even give Yamamoto a good beating, as for who will die in whose hands, it's really not certain.

  This time, Liu Chenzhou was right again. Yamamoto Shūichi was still worried about the Flying Tiger Cavalry Regiment and sent a telegram to Nakamura to ask about their situation. Nakamura replied that the Flying Tiger Cavalry Regiment was still moving back and forth in front of the mountain valley. As soon as Yamamoto heard this, he felt relieved and thought to himself: "The Flying Tiger Cavalry Regiment will arrive just in time for us to collect their corpses. Then I'll take care of them too." He cursed the National Revolutionary Army's 11th Division, the Eighth Route Army's Independent Brigade, the Eighth Route Army's 343rd Brigade, and the Flying Tiger Cavalry Regiment, saying they would all go to hell.

  Yamamoto let out a series of triumphant laughs and exclaimed: "This is what you call killing three birds with one stone! No, if we add the Flying Tiger Cavalry Regiment, it'll be four birds with one stone!" He thought that by then, he, Yamamoto Shūichi, would become one of the top generals in the Great Japanese Empire, just like his cousin Yamamoto Isoroku. His military achievements would be glorious and impressive, and the Emperor would be proud of him. Maybe the Emperor would even award him another medal as a hero general.

  Just as Yamamoto was indulging in these fantasies in the command center, a soldier came to report: "Commander, sir! The Flying Tiger Cavalry Regiment has suddenly appeared on our western flank, and the Kuga Division is being beaten badly with heavy casualties."

  Here is the translation:

  Yamamoto Shōichi jumped up three feet high as soon as he heard, and roared: "Impossible! Just now Nakamura sent me a telegram saying that the Flying Tiger Cavalry Regiment was still in front of that mountain valley. How could they possibly have run to our west flank?" The soldier said: "Yes, it's absolutely true." Yamamoto couldn't believe it at all - how could the Flying Tiger Cavalry Regiment launch a surprise attack on Kuga's division from his western flank? Just as Yamamoto was half-believing and half-doubting, another soldier came in to report: "Commander, sir! A unit of Nationalist troops has stealthily approached our eastern flank and suddenly launched a fierce attack. Our eastern flank is in chaos." Yamamoto was shocked and sat down on his chair with a thud. He still shouted loudly: "Impossible! Impossible! Our reconnaissance planes patrol the skies every day, and I have sent out special agents to gather intelligence on the Chinese army every day. How could they possibly not have detected any movement from the Chinese army? Did they drop from the sky or dig their way up from underground? Otherwise, how could we not have had any inkling?"

  Yamamoto Shōichi hastily walked out of the command center, carefully observing both east and west. Yamamoto held a pair of binoculars in his hand, carefully observing the position of the Kuga Division. The Japanese army on the position of the Kuga Division was seen fleeing in all directions. The cavalry sword in the hands of the Flying Tiger Cavalry Regiment shone brightly under the sunset. The Flying Tiger Cavalry Regiment entered the position of the Kuga Division as if it were an uninhabited land, charging horizontally and vertically. Wherever the Flying Tiger Cavalry Regiment went, the Japanese army fell to the ground and died.

  At this time, what was even more deadly was that the 343rd Brigade of the Eighth Route Army launched a counterattack against the Kuga Division. The position of the Kuga Division was completely disrupted. Yamamoto held the binoculars and hastily looked east again. He saw an unknown army attacking the Japanese position in the east. Although Yamamoto did not know which unit it was, judging from their uniforms, they were Nationalist troops. There were at least tens of thousands of them. They charged horizontally and vertically on the Japanese position in the east like fierce tigers coming down from a mountain. The Japanese army in the east also became chaotic.

  Yamamoto held the binoculars with his eyes wide open and mouth agape, he simply did not dare to believe what had happened before. At this time, someone reported to Yamamoto: "Commander, the Kuga Division is about to collapse. The Kuga Division requests immediate reinforcements." Yamamoto furiously shouted: "Nonsense! What can I use to reinforce them now? Immediately send a telegram to the Kuga Division and order them to stabilize their troops and position within the shortest time possible. If the Kuga Division dares to retreat, let Kumamoto Ichio cut his belly and apologize to the Emperor with death."

  All of this came too suddenly, leaving Yamamoto completely unguarded. Yamamoto could never have imagined that the Flying Tiger Cavalry and another branch of the National Army would be able to sneak up on them without making a sound, and they had not detected it at all. This left Yamamoto Shūichi extremely shocked. At this time, Yamamoto finally truly realized that they had underestimated the Chinese nation too much. It seemed that there were many heroes and talents in the Chinese nation. So Yamamoto Shūichi only now let out a heartfelt sigh of emotion and astonishment.

  Yamamoto couldn't care about thinking about these issues anymore. He hastily ordered his troops to immediately readjust, no matter what they could not let the Chinese army in the encirclement escape. Yamamoto absolutely could not just watch as the cooked duck flew away. However, before long the situation on the battlefield took a turn for the worse. Yamamoto only now realized that it was not the Chinese army that should be escaping, but rather their so-called Imperial Japanese Army.

  Yamamoto suddenly had an idea. Since Nakamura's brigade was still waiting in ambush on the mountain for the Flying Tiger Cavalry, why not hastily order Nakamura's brigade to rush back and support? Perhaps the battle could still take a turn for the better. If the Chinese army could launch a sneak attack on us without being detected, then why couldn't we launch a sneak attack on them without being detected?

  Nakamura's brigade had 8,000 men, plus the 4,000 men of the Fourth Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Japanese Army, making a total of 12,000 men. If Nakamura's brigade and the Tenth Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Japanese Army were to suddenly appear behind the Chinese army, then it was still possible for them to be completely annihilated.
