"Boom!"

"Boom, boom! ——”

At that time, the commander of the 101st Division of the Japanese Army, Ito Masaki, was frantically outputting on his female subordinates, and the sudden violent explosion made the old devil's body tremble involuntarily, and he surrendered directly.

"Yaga! Where did the explosion come from? Ito Masaki let out a loud shout, then turned over and got out of bed, lifted his pants and hurried out of the tent.

Although the female agent was very dissatisfied with Ito Masaki's ruthless approach, she didn't dare to show it.

As soon as Ito Masaki opened the curtain and walked out, a devil Shaoza hurried over.

This little devil's name is Jun Sakai, and he is the captain of the Ito Masakaki Guard Brigade, and he is specifically responsible for protecting Ito Masakaki's safety.

Previously, when Ito Masaki was happy, Sakai Jun took a detachment of men and horses to guard around to ensure his absolute safety.

It was precisely because Sakai Jun assigned a part of his troops to this side that the defensive strength of the division headquarters was greatly weakened, allowing Yang Jing and them to succeed easily.

I have to say that sometimes it's such a coincidence that even the movie doesn't dare to make it like this.

Seeing Ito Masaki walking out of the tent, Sakai Jun hurriedly greeted him and said urgently: "Your Excellency, Division Commander, the big thing is not good!" The Chinese army suddenly launched a night attack on the tank brigade and headquarters! ”

"Nani?" Ito Masaki said with a gloomy face: "We have deployed so many lines of defense on the front line, and so many posts, how did the Chinese army touch it?"

Could it be that they can't fly when they have wings? ”

"Hello!" Sakai Jun paused heavily and bowed his head silently.

Ito Masakaki said again: "What about the losses of the imperial army, have you eliminated this damn Shina army?" ”

Sakai Jun paused again and said, "This, at present, the humble position is unknown!" ”

"Yaga! Come back with me! ”

After Ito Masakaki finished speaking, he strode in the direction of the division headquarters.

"Hello!"

Sakai Jun paused again, and immediately turned his head to shout to the group of subordinates not far away: "Keep up and protect the safety of His Excellency the Division Commander!" ”

……

One stone stirs up a thousand waves.

That series of violent explosions not only alarmed Ito Masaki, who was turning over the rain, but also woke up other little devils east of the first line of the gorge.

These unknown little devils thought that the Tiger Ben Regiment had killed them at night, so they hurriedly got out of the camp tent and entered a state of combat readiness.

Under Ito Masaki, the brigade commander of the 101st Brigade, Shozaburo Sato, and the brigade commander of the 102nd Brigade, Noboru Miyamoto, made a simple deployment of defense tasks, and each ordered the two infantry wings under his command to lead their troops to the front line of the defense area to prevent the counterattack of the Tiger Regiment.

Then he took his own guards, and a large group of infantry, and rushed in the direction where the explosion came.

The sound of a violent explosion was heard a full twenty kilometers away.

Even Shiro Inaba and Junrokuro Matsuura, who were guarding the north and south flanks of the first line of the gorge, were awakened by the explosion, and after confirming that it was not their own defense area that was attacked at night, they also rushed to the headquarters of the 101st Division, that is, the position of the joint headquarters, with their own guards.

……

To the west of the first-line gorge, the main position of the artillery battalion of the Huben regiment.

Deputy battalion commander Liu Sanpao raised his eyes to look at the opposite side of the canyon, and asked the rake ear with great interest: "Battalion commander, should we take advantage of the chaos to fire a few cannons?" ”

Rake Ear pondered for a moment and said, "It stands to reason that they should be able to get their hands on the group."

It's time to give them fire cover and help them break out of the encirclement! ”

After saying this, the expression on the face of the rake ear changed suddenly, and he said in a deep voice: "Order all companies to immediately launch free fire on the Japanese defense area!"

Tuanzuo said, don't save cannonballs for him, make it for Lao Tzu! ”

"Order!"

Liu Sanpao agreed with a happy face.

As the order was delivered, the artillerymen of each company came to the side of the gun emplacement with high spirits.

Adjust the angle of fire, then reload the shell and launch free fire.

Yang Jing fully equipped the artillery battalion with 30 150mm caliber American heavy howitzers.

It's not that it can't be equipped with more, but the heavy howitzers of this specification weigh thousands of kilograms each, which is extremely inconvenient to move or carry.

So, having too much equipment is not necessarily a good thing.

"Boom!"

"Boom, boom, boom! ——”

The 30 heavy artillery pieces were fired at full power, and every time they fired freely, 30 heavy artillery shells smashed down on the defense area of the little devils east of the first-line gorge.

Immediately, the little devil's defense area was blown up in smoke, and the flames soared into the sky.

Fortunately, because it could not lock on to the target, the Huben regimental artillery battalion could only fire freely, which seemed to be terrifying, but the casualties caused to the Japanese were completely negligible.

"Yaga! Counterattack! Artillery wing, immediately carry out artillery fire countermeasures! ”

The commanders of the former enemy of the devil only thought that the Tiger Regiment was about to launch a general attack, and immediately arranged their troops hoarsely to strengthen the strength of the key passes.

At the same time, the artillery wings directly under the 101st, 6th, and 106th divisions of the Japanese army also launched counterattacks one after another against the Huben regimental defense area west of the first-line gorge.

For a time, the entire first-line gorge was full of artillery roaring and blazing fire on both sides.

……

At this time, on his way back to the division headquarters, Ito Masaki had to pass by the station of the tank brigade.

Looking at the various tank parts scattered all over the place, looking up, there was hardly a complete tank tank left.

The old devil was suddenly furious, gritted his teeth and roared: "Baga Ya Road! Damn, bastard! ”

You must know that tanks are the strategic equipment of the Imperial Japanese Army, and each one of them is extremely precious.

Now the dozens of tank fighting vehicles of the tank brigade under his command have been blown up by the enemy before they have time to fight, how can he not be angry?

However, Ito Masaki was most concerned about his headquarters at the moment, and he glanced coldly at the messy surroundings before stepping forward again.

By the time Ito returned to the headquarters, his guards had basically cleaned up the battlefield.

"Your Excellency the Division Commander!"

"Your Excellency the Division Commander!"

……

When the devil soldiers saw Ito Masaki rushing back, they lowered their heads like defeated roosters, not daring to look directly at his gaze that was almost about to eat people.

Ito Masaki glanced at the military tent of the command headquarters that no longer existed, gritted his teeth and shouted: "Yaga! Can anyone tell me what the hell is going on? ”

A gray-faced devil officer Shaozuo paused and said: "Report to Your Excellency the division commander, the Chinese army launched an attack on our army headquarters at night!" ”

Ito Masaki suppressed the anger in his heart and scolded: "How many people have come from the Shina army, and where are they now?" ”

The devil Shaozuo officer paused again and said: "The Chinese army has dispatched a total of about one platoon of troops, they are well-equipped and well-trained, and it is very likely that they are the Tiger Regiment's Dragon Soul Special Operations Brigade that attacked the headquarters of the 6th Division of the Imperial Army in Chuzhou!" ”

"A platoon?" Ito Masaki's face was suddenly extremely difficult to see, but if he knew that his subordinate Shaozo deliberately lied about the number of enemy troops in order to reduce his responsibility, he would probably have to vomit blood on the spot.

After a pause, Masaki Ito gritted his back molars and said, "Where are these Chinese troops now?" Has it all been wiped out? ”

The devil Shaozuo said tremblingly: "Let them take advantage of the chaos to escape!" ”

"Yaga! Bastards, rubbish! ”

The anger in Ito Masaki's heart finally exploded, he raised his arm, and a big ear scraper was thrown out.

Listening to the crisp sound of "bang", the head of the devil Shaozuo suddenly "buzzed", as if it was about to explode, half of his face instantly swelled into a pig's head, and several broken teeth flew out with saliva and blood stains.

After being beaten, he had to stand upright, and the devil Shaozuo hurriedly paused with a panicked face and said: "Your Excellency the division commander, Ghana Dazuo has sent heavy troops to pursue, and I believe that these damn Chinese troops will definitely be able to annihilate them!" ”

Masaki Ito turned his head to look around, and found that there was no figure of Fukutaro Nishiyama, and immediately asked, "What about the chief of staff?" ”

The devil Shao Zuo suddenly showed a mournful expression, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Excellency the Chief of Staff, as well as several operational staff officers of the division and regiment headquarters, all ...... All the jade was shattered. ”

"Nani?" Rao is Ito Masaki was prepared in his heart, but when he heard this answer, he couldn't help but look shocked.

After reacting, I was glad again, fortunately I wasn't here tonight, otherwise I really don't know what the result would be.

At this moment, the commander of the 101st Infantry Brigade, Shozaburo Sato, and the commander of the 102nd Brigade, Noboru Miyamoto, rushed over one after another.

Not long after, Shiro Inaba, the commander of the 6th Division, and Junrokuro Matsuura, the commander of the 106th Division, also rushed over.

……

Half an hour later, the Japanese engineers re-established a command tent in their original positions.

A Nakasa officer, who was in charge of counting the battle damage, held a telegram in his hand, and the captains with heavy faces, Masaki Ito, Shiro Inaba, and others reported:

"Your Excellency, in this battle, including Your Excellency the Chief of Staff, the Imperial Army totaled 733 people and 852 wounded, of which 660 were lightly wounded and 192 were seriously wounded.

All 48 tanks and armored vehicles of the 101st Tank Brigade were blown up. ”

Saying that, the devil Zhongzuo seemed to think of something again, and added: "Oh, by the way, in addition, there is also an ammunition depot, which was also blasted by the Chinese army, and there were countless losses!" ”

Shiro Inaba and Junrokuro Matsuura both showed shocked expressions on their faces after hearing this.

After arriving, although they already knew that the 101st Brigade of the Tank had also been attacked by the Tiger Regiment, they did not expect that the losses would be so serious, it was no different from the annihilation of the entire army.

Ito Masaki's face was even more gloomy to the extreme, almost dripping water, he glanced at Inaba Shiro and Matsuura Junrokuro, gritted his teeth and said: "Inaba-kun, Matsuura-kun, the attack on our joint headquarters by the Shina Army tonight is not only a provocation to the 101st Division of our Imperial Army, but also a provocation to the 6th Division and the 106th Division of your Imperial Army!"

It is a great insult to our Imperial Japanese Army, so I propose to immediately launch a retaliatory counterattack against the Chinese Army to defend the supreme dignity of our Imperial Japanese Army. ”
