Section 415 The Eastern Front Offensive Battle Jizhou
When the 97th Rapid Response Division quickly occupied Baiyan County, the 10th Mountain Division had already moved to the front line from the railway line, and in less than four hours, at dawn, several main regiments of the 10th Mountain Division and equipped off-road trucks and mountain howitzers had been transported in place, and the next step was to cross the remaining veins of Hamgyong Mountain to raid Jizhou, annihilate the rest of the 30th Wing and cut off the connection between the 16th Wing and other units of the 2nd Division stationed in Qingjin, and turn Jizhou into a general logistics base for the Eastern Route Army.
Until this time, Lieutenant General Nakajima Masatake of the 2nd Division did not know that the two wings in the northeast were in danger. Although the division headquarters received the daily routine radio telegram report, the telephone contact to the northeast direction could not be reached since noon yesterday, and the patrol soldiers sent out did not return, and it seems that those damned scum of the Samhan Restoration Army are once again engaged in their usual trick, that is, cutting the telephone lines, and then lying in ambush and waiting for the patrol soldiers to come, ambushing the patrol soldiers to snatch weapons and ammunition. This piecemeal tactic is very suitable for the guerrillas of the Restoration Army who use light weapons and have little training, of course, if there is no support from the people of Zhina, these guys who have no fighting spirit would have been trapped and killed on the Sky Ridge, and without the so-called "democratic Samhan training course" run by the Intelligence Bureau of Zhina, these guys are not a group of stick mountain people who have no combat effectiveness? I knew that I should have sent cavalry to patrol the line, and maybe I could drag back a few corpses and hang them on the head of the city of Gyeongju to dry them for the New Year.
Compared with these harassing attacks, Nakajima Masatake is more concerned about the battle situation in Lushun and whether the Combined Fleet can bomb those coastal cities in China into slag in time. Although I don't want to admit it, it seems that they have a more obvious advantage over the Chinese navy than the milk-drinking guys who snatch military funds from the army every year, and maybe force the madman in China to give up the attempt to attack Arthur, otherwise the brothers of the army may have to go through the flesh mill of the 203 heights again.
"Report, report. Your Excellency, Division Commander, there is a message, oh, it was broadcast on the radio station in China, I don't know if it's true, but, anyway, please turn on the radio and listen to it. His adjutant Matsui Ishine Shaozo rushed in in a panic, this guy from the mountains will be hairy once he encounters a major event, and he can't support the wall with mud.
"Matsui Shaosa, you are an officer of the Imperial Japanese Army, and you must be calm every time you are in a big situation, you know?" Lieutenant General Nakajima held back his anger and didn't give him two slaps, lest he himself be as vulgar as those country samurai. He picked up the teacup and slowly sipped Samhan's Korean ginseng tea, before motioning to Matsui Shaosa, who had lowered his head and kept admitting his mistakes, to turn on the radio in the room. Although I don't want to admit it, the Republic of Korea radio with this high-end mahogany chassis produced by the Shina Standard Factory is indeed of superb quality, not only is there very little noise, but also the sound is mellow and rich, especially suitable for listening to the songs of Tokyo Radio, even if the voice of those geisha has been broadcast by the radio stations of Busan and the Han Dynasty, although there is some delay, but the sound quality is still as beautiful as the Republic brand broadcast, and even because of the signal delay, there is an ethereal taste. However, Matsui quickly pressed the automatic jumping button and found the channel of the Xinhua Radio in China, which His Excellency the Commander often secretly listened to at night.
"Broadcast again, the latest news from this station, in the early hours of yesterday morning, three task forces of the Japanese Combined Fleet invaded China's territorial waters without permission. After two warnings were ineffective, the Wehrmacht Navy, in coordination with the Standard Air Force, dealt a devastating blow to the invading enemy, and the three task forces of the Japanese Combined Fleet suffered heavy losses and had to abandon the invasion attempt and flee back in disarray. Our officers and men have returned to the port victoriously after driving all the invading enemies out of the sea frontier. According to an informed source in the navy who did not want to be named, the Japanese Combined Fleet lost three super-dreadnoughts and seriously injured one, three dreadnoughts and one seriously injured before the loss, one super-dreadnought patrol ship, five armored ships and one lightly wounded, 12 destroyers and 12 destroyers, and more than 4,000 officers and men were killed or wounded. The losses of our navy and air force were slight, and no more than 75 officers and men were killed or wounded..."
"Baga, this is fake news, it's a propaganda trick in China, Matsui Shaozuo, you immediately order all troops to seize the radio and stop China's propaganda tactics of attacking the heart." Nakajima Masatake's heart did not think of the truth or falsehood of this news, but whether it was true or not, as the commander-in-chief of the defense of the Eastern Front of Samhan and the head of the Second Division, eliminating the impact of this news on morale was the most important thing for him to do.
"Yes, division commander." Matsui Shaozo did not move after saluting, "But, Your Excellency, I have a piece of news that I don't know whether to say or not. ”
"Well, Matsui Shaozuo, your father is my fellow villager and friend, and you are my son and nephew, what else can't you say in the face of your own parents." Nakajima Masatake understands that this guy has inside information, and plans to get a letter from his mouth, but unfortunately he doesn't know the truth of this yet, how can he give him a letter?
"Hayi, Your Excellency. My classmate in Etajima called me, and he said that the teachers and students at their school were urgently mobilizing and had begun to cancel their vacations, and there seemed to be some kind of emergency. ”
"Oh, don't talk nonsense about this news to others. Otherwise..."
"Yes, I understand, I will not cause trouble to His Excellency the Division Commander."
"Very good, you immediately send my order, let the captain of the Fourth Wing of the Cavalry Independent Send a squadron-sized cavalry patrol to patrol in the direction of Qingjin and Baiyan, I am worried that there will be any changes in the Shina Army in these two directions. In addition, the 2nd Wing and the 29th Wing were ordered to strengthen their vigilance, send a military police squad to control the headquarters of the Yasukuni Army divisions and regiments of the Samhan Army, arm all our instructors in various regiments of the Yasukuni Army, equip them with some soldiers of our baggage wing, and control these Yasukuni troops well. ”
"Your Excellency anticipates the enemy's opportunity, uses troops cautiously, and admires the five-body surrender to the ground. This is to convey your commands. I also want to go to Jizhou with the cavalry of the Ono Wing, where there is also our war readiness grain depot, you see? "Matsui Shaozo is not a simple fellow, in this time of war clouds, he sees infinite military exploits, and Jizhou is the place where he thinks he is most likely to achieve military exploits. If you can take the opportunity to achieve combat merits in the battle to defend Jizhou, under the care of the division commander, it is not impossible to be promoted to Zhongzuo or even Dazuo, and after the war, you can be promoted to the general star before the age of forty.
"Oh, you're right, the enemy's target must be Jizhou, which is not only the junction of the railways, but also the retreat of the 16th Wing, but also outside the range of the navy's main guns, which is an attractive target for the Chinese army, and as for food, it is also a target that they must capture. In addition to urging them to transport and deliver food after they go to Jizhou, you must also supervise the command of the 30th Wing, remember that you are going on my behalf, if you can't do anything, you will destroy the food in time, and then cover the retreat of the 16th Wing with the 30th Wing to ensure the retreat of all members of the 16th Wing. ”
"Hayi. The lowly position is written. Matsui got the Shang Fang sword he wanted, and went to the Ono Cavalry Wing to transfer troops and dispatch generals to the staff headquarters by the way. And the head of Nakajima Masasa was not at ease, he grabbed the phone and called the best friends and old bosses in China, and knocked on the side, although he could not confirm the accuracy of the news of the China Radio, but it seemed that the situation of the United Fleet was not good, even if the China exaggerated the losses of the United Fleet, but it was estimated that it would be impossible to count on the support of the United Fleet for a period of time, which made Vice Admiral Nakajima Masatake very worried, the northeast defense area where he was stationed was dense with mountains and forests, and the transportation in the defense area was inconvenient, except for a railway, Several seaports are the nodes of transportation, and if the combined fleet loses its sea supremacy, then its own sea transportation line may be cut off by the Chinese navy, and for the second division, it is not only a matter of material shortage, but also the possibility of the enemy using naval artillery to cut off his coastal lines of communication or even directly bombard his own positions. In that case, it is probably unknown how long the Second Division will be able to hold out in this freezing Motianling area.
"Report to Commander Du that our 10th Mountain Division has occupied three mountain strongholds on the outskirts of Jizhou, and is shelling the defense of Jizhou City, covering the armored forces of the 97th Division to attack Jizhou City. The Japanese resistance was very fierce, the puppet army defense area had been loosened, and now the 10th Mountain Regiment of the 1003th Mountain Division was launching an attack, striving to occupy the defense area within 30 minutes. ”
"Well, Master Su, this attack must be a quick word, don't drag mud and water. Are there any difficulties? "Du Zicheng knows the virtues of these guys very well, they are all masters who bite iron and pull tightropes, and they will never say soft words to ask for help unless they have to, he doesn't want his troops to suffer undue losses.
"Oh, commander, it's a problem, there are more residents in Jizhou City, the Japanese army's camp is in Dongguan, the county seat, there are many residents here, if we use heavy firepower, it is inevitable that we will be injured by mistake. You see? ”
"I said you kid is not playing tricks on me, this is the job of catching rats in the porcelain shop, if you can't do it, I'll change..."
"Don't, don't, boss, listen to me, I mean we will definitely strictly control the use of firepower, and we will not bomb indiscriminately, and besides, we don't have a few bases for ammunition, but if the little devils catch the people as meat shields, what should we do?"
"Well, the little devil's virtue can be done, you wait first." Du Zicheng turned his head and handed the microphone to a Samhan general next to him who was wearing the uniform of the Samhan Democratic Alliance Army (in fact, it was the training uniform of the internal security army with a simple set of military ranks and symbols). "Lao Jin, this is your domestic affair, I can't make the decision, please decide."
Jin Jiuyi grinned, you remembered me for such a good thing in my heart, why didn't you let go of the matter of the puppet army just now? However, the situation is stronger than people, and what should be said is still to say, who let the Chinese be their masters?
"Commander Su, I am Kim Gu, commander of the first column of the Samhan Democratic Coalition Army, first of all, I would like to thank you and the National Defense Forces for the ....... they have made to liberate Samhan, and please rest assured that you commanders and fighters of the National Defense Forces. According to our information, the vast majority of the Samhan people living in Dongguan are traitors who have taken refuge in the Japanese devils, and a small number of innocent people, if they are accidentally injured, it is their sacrifice for the liberation of the motherland, and it is their patriotic duty, and I think they and their families will feel extremely honored. In order to rescue the vast majority of Samhan civilians as soon as possible, please give the order to open fire. Samhan needs to be reborn in the flames of war, please. Looking at Jin Jiu under the tears, Du Zicheng couldn't help but sigh, he is also a commander, looking at the acting skills of the column commander of the three Korean Democratic Alliance, he had to write a big word.
