, Taiyuan and Xuanhua, Zhangjiakou will be cut off. The Eighth Route Army will occupy the northern part of Jin Province and threaten our imperial army south of Datong to the south with a commanding position. Therefore, this is probably the meaning of His Excellency the division commander who is unwilling to abandon Datong. After all, the impact of abandoning Datong is too great. ”。

  Hosoi Yasuchi was speechless when he heard this, and it seemed that this was what he meant.

  Suddenly, a Japanese herald rushed from the rear and reported to Kotaro Takeda urgently, "Sir, Your Excellency the Division Commander has dispatched a squadron to reinforce our department and block the incoming Chinese army. The division commander has an order, be sure to hold on for an hour! In addition, the heavy artillery unit will soon use two Type 6 150 field howitzers to bombard the follow-up troops of the Chinese Army to support our blocking operations. ”。

  "Yoxi, got it!" Kotaro Takeda nodded to show that he had understood, and then ordered Lieutenant Hosoi Yasuchi, the adjutant on the side, "Hosoi-kun, you personally assist in reinforcing the troops, be sure to block the attack layer by layer, and block the Shina army for me!" ”。

  Hosoi Yasuchi replied, "Hello, sir! Immediately boosted morale, he would generally work with the devil soldiers of a Japanese squadron who rushed to the rear to reinforce and continue to carry out a powerful counterattack against Zhang Dabiao's troops.

  At this time, the two Type 96 heavy artillery units of the Japanese army had already received the order of Ryosuke Tsuya, and began to adjust the coordinates of the shelling. Then, suddenly, there was a bombardment.

  The shells of the heavy cannonballs, screaming and grinding with a loud noise caused by the friction of the low shells in the air, smashed down heavily in less than five seconds.

  Zhang Dabiao, who commanded the troops to attack the Japanese army's blocking position, had very keen ears, and as soon as he heard this sound, he knew that at least the Japanese howitzers with a caliber of about 100 millimeters were bombarding him.

  "Made, order all troops, urgently avoid artillery!" Zhang Dabiao ordered urgently.

  In fact, without waiting for Zhang Dabiao's urgent order, the attacking troops took shelter in the buildings on both sides of Heyang Avenue to avoid artillery.

  The veterans of the first battalion all dodged one after another, and in less than two seconds, the heavy artillery shells of the Japanese army fell like raindrops and exploded suddenly.

  Everywhere there were flames caused by the explosion of the shells, which exploded and devoured everything.

  Some soldiers who had no time to avoid the artillery were killed on the spot, and some of the devil soldiers in the melee were also blown to pieces by their own artillery fire.

  However, the heavy artillery bombardment of the Japanese army temporarily restrained the fierce offensive of Zhang Dabiao's troops. A Japanese squadron under Kotaro Takeda's unit temporarily cooperated with reinforcements to hold the existing blocking position, and blocked the fierce offensive of Zhang Dabiao's department on Heyang Street, which was more than 400 meters away from Taipinglou.

  Zhang Dabiao frowned at this time, looking at the Japanese heavy artillery shells that exploded everywhere on Heyang Street.

  "Contact Duan Peng's special combat team, let them sneak into the Japanese artillery position in Dongcheng District in a roundabout way, and be sure to take out the devil's heavy artillery!" Zhang Dabiao summoned a staff officer with the army and ordered in a low voice.
