Jagged Germany

   On the front line of Brunei City, fierce fighting continues. Despite the fierce attack overnight, not only did not tear through the German defense line, but it also caused heavy losses. However, Lieutenant General Masaharu Honma, commander of the 14th Front Army of the Japanese Army, and Lieutenant General Shizuo Tanaka, commander of the 7th Front Army, still chose to let the troops continue to attack.

   This is not what they want, but they are already stuck. After investing heavily in the attack on Brunei City and having suffered heavy losses, if they just give up the attack, they will have to bear the consequences of losing the battle.

   Lieutenant General Masahiro Honma and Lieutenant General Shizuo Tanaka still have a bit of delusion. Although the loss of the troops is huge, if they can break through the city of Brunei, no matter how big the loss is, it will be acceptable. After all, as long as the 23rd Army is defeated, they will soon get more supplements. Moreover, they will also become famous in one battle, gaining great military exploits and glory.

"Reorganize the troops and launch an attack! The Germans have fierce firepower and support from naval guns. However, this cannot cover up their lack of troops. As long as we continue to attack, we will be able to defeat them !” Lieutenant General Masahiro Honma ordered.

   "Hi, Your Excellency, Commander!" Lieutenant General Maeda Masami replied.

   "Tanaka-kun, it seems that this time we have to do our best and we can't have any reservations. Otherwise, we will lose this time." Lieutenant General Masahiro Honma said.

   Lieutenant General Tanaka Shizuo nodded: "Honma-kun, the 7th Front Army will do its best!"

   Lieutenant General Masharu Honma felt relieved after receiving a positive reply from Lieutenant General Tanaka Shizuki. In his opinion, with the full support of the 7th Front Army, they still have a good chance of winning. After all, they have an overwhelming advantage in terms of military strength.

"Your Excellency, the 2nd Tank Division has reported that the Germans have dispatched a large number of armored troops to attack their positions. The battle is now very fierce. The 2nd Tank Division is doing its best to resist the German attack!" Major General Utsunomiya Naoken, Deputy Chief of Staff of the 14th Front reported.

"Huh! This is indeed a trap set by the Germans. They are trying to use their armored forces to kill a carbine, trying to defeat us as they defeated the 18th Front Army. This is simply wishful thinking. The combined forces of the 14th Front Army and the 7th Front Army The strength is much stronger than that of the 18th Front Army!" Masaharu Honma snorted coldly.

"Send a telegram to the 2nd Tank Division, the 1st Infantry Division and the 10th Division, telling them to resist the German attack no matter what, and buy us enough time." Lieutenant General Masahiro Honma ordered .

   "Hi, Your Excellency, Commander!" Major General Utsunomiya Naoken immediately went to convey the order.

   "Tanaka-kun, we have to speed up!" Lieutenant General Masharu Honma said.

   Lieutenant General Tanaka Shizuo nodded in agreement.

   Knowing that the German armored forces had returned, Lieutenant General Masahiro Honma and Shizuka Tanaka both knew that they had to speed up their attack. Otherwise, once the German armored forces tore through the defense lines of their troops, the consequences would be disastrous.

  The 14th Front Army and the 7th Front Army of the Island Army once again organized a large number of troops to launch a fierce attack on the positions of the German 23rd Army. Trying to break through the city of Brunei in one fell swoop and eliminate the German army here.

   But unfortunately, what greeted them was dense shells and powerful firepower. Relying on a strong line of defense, as well as the fire support of artillery in the rear and warships on the sea, the German army firmly resisted the attack of the island army. And continue to cause greater casualties to the Japanese army. Under such circumstances, the loss of the army of the island country is increasing, but it is still unable to break through the German defense line, let alone capture the city of Brunei and eliminate the German troops stationed there.

   An hour later, the telegram from the 2nd Tank Division came again.

"Your Excellency, the 2nd Tank Division has suffered heavy losses and is no longer able to withstand the German attack. The 1st Division and the 10th Division have also been fiercely attacked by the German armored forces. Their defense lines It has been broken through, and the troops are retreating now." Lieutenant General Maeda Masami reported with a serious face.

   "What? How did this happen? There are more than 60,000 of them, how could they not be able to hold on so easily?" Lieutenant General Masahiro Honma was stunned, as if hit by a bolt from the blue.

   Lieutenant General Tanaka Shizuki's face also turned pale. He knew very well what would happen if the German armored forces attacked their main force.

   "Honma-kun, we can no longer attack, we must retreat. Otherwise, our entire army will be wiped out!" Lieutenant General Tanaka Shizuki said decisively. Under such circumstances, it is impossible for them to conquer Brunei and defeat the German army. What should be done now is to preserve their strength as much as possible. Otherwise, they will lose this battle completely.

   "Oh! Order the troops to retreat!" Lieutenant General Masahiro Honma said helplessly.

  He had no choice but to order a retreat. Under the circumstances that Brunei City cannot be conquered, if you continue to keep the main force here and launch an attack, it will undoubtedly be an act of courting death.

  A large number of island armies began to withdraw from the surrounding areas of Brunei City and retreat to Crocker Hill.

  In order to resist the attack of the German armored forces, they must retreat to the other side of Crocker Mountain, and then rely on the terrain and fortifications to resist the attack of the German armored forces. Otherwise, being chased by the German armored forces in the plains is undoubtedly a dead end.

  The German 23rd Army will not let the Japanese army go so easily. Lieutenant General William Adam originally hoped to cause as many casualties as possible to the island army in this battle. Therefore, the German troops stationed in Brunei immediately gave up their positions and began to actively attack the island army.

  The German warships on the sea are also frantically firing at the retreating lead army, using powerful artillery fire to continuously destroy the officers and soldiers of the island army.

  The armored forces of the German army also caught up after solving the 1st Division, 10th Division and 2nd Tank Division of the Japanese Army.

  Although it only takes more than a day to travel from Brunei City to the other side of Crocker Mountain. But human legs are still incomparable with tank tracks and car wheels. After a large number of Japanese armies were caught up, they were surrounded and wiped out. Not many island armies successfully escaped back to the other side of Crocker Hill. The 14th Front Army and the 7th Front Army of the Japanese Army suffered fatal losses in this battle.
