Chapter 576: Zero Fighter
"That's called mobilizing heavy artillery to reinforce Itagaki Seishiro's department, as soon as possible!" Yoshio Shinozuka waved his hand with a gloomy face and said.
It's just that Miyano Taro smiled bitterly: "Your Excellency, commander, if you mobilize heavy artillery reinforcements, I'm afraid it will take time." There was no heavy artillery in Hunyuan City, and there were still some heavy artillery before Pingxingguan. However, Li Yunlong's troops raided and captured Pingxingguan, and several heavy artillery pieces were blown up. I can only be drawn from Lingqiu City to the north to reinforce Seishiro Itagaki. However, it will take at least forty or fifty minutes to be able to go north along the Guanshui River to the mouth of the Jinlong Gorge. ”。
"Then let's do what Seishiro Itagaki himself reported in the telegram!"
Yoshio Shinozuka waved his hand and said, "In addition, bombers and fighters will be mobilized from Xinkou, and at least thirty fighters will be dispatched this time." The advanced Zero fighter is also going to be dispatched, this fighter is flexible and flexible, and it should be able to cover the bomber's low-altitude bombing! ”。
"Your Excellency Commander, no matter how hard the Zero fighters are, there are only ten of them, and they are all the latest cutting-edge fighters to fly to Xinkou Airport. If something happens over the Jinlong Gorge, it will be troublesome. "Taro Miyano knows the superior performance of the Zero aircraft, and if there is an accident in Jin Province and there is too much loss, it will be very troublesome.
Yoshio Shinozuka shook his head and said, "The Zero is new, and they must be used to be able to use their useful abilities. Execute the order! Tell Seishiro Itagaki that the second reinforcement will arrive in an hour, and I hope that they will be able to find a way to conquer the new base area of Shina as soon as possible within this time. ”。
"Your Excellency, Commander, have you sent troops to reinforce Seishiro Itagaki's department? They now have only more than 5,300 people, and even if the mouth of the Jinlong Gorge is swept away by the second low-altitude bombardment by fighter reinforcements, they must still attack the rear. And from the map, behind the mouth of the Jinlongxia Canyon, is a long section of the canyon in the valley road, behind which there is a plank road, Yunge Hongqiao dangerous place, and then there are two commanding heights of Tianfeng Ridge and Cuiping Peak. Behind it, Hutou Mountain is also a dangerous peak, condescending, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Therefore, this battle is only fought all the way by Seishiro Itagaki, and I am afraid that there will be a lot of casualties. ”
Taro Miyano analyzed out loud, in fact, in his words, he suggested that Yoshio Shinozuka transfer troops to reinforce Itagaki Seishiro's department. Otherwise, if you fight like this, Seishiro Itagaki's infantry will be crippled.
And once Itagaki Seishiro's infantry was crippled and suffered all casualties, then the headquarters of the Itagaki Division, which had achieved great results in the previous battle to capture most of the territory of Jin Province, suffered casualties of a brigade in the battle directly facing the new regiment.
This is also for the sake of Miyano Taro for the reputation of Yoshio Shinozuka.
I saw that Yoshio Shinozuka was silent for a while, his eyes suddenly glanced at the military map in front of him, and then waved his hand and said: "Miyano-kun thinks about it, then order the imperial army troops from the east and west to reinforce the Pingxing Pass, except for some of the imperial soldiers who stayed behind in the Pingxing Pass and collected the corpses of the imperial soldiers of the 63rd Wing of the 33rd Brigade of the 10th Division who died in the battle, the rest of the men and horses went north after leaving the Pingxing Kanto to reinforce Itagaki Seishiro's department. By the way, how many people are in this part? ”。
"Judging from the two telegrams of the imperial army from the east and west to reinforce Pingxingguan, there are a total of 3,000 men and horses."
When Yoshio Shinozuka heard this, he ordered: "Leave a thousand people to defend the Pingxing Pass and strengthen the garrison, so that you can't be raided by the Shina army again." The remaining 2,000 men and horses went north along the Guanshui River to reinforce Itagaki Seishiro's department, and ordered Lingqiu and Guangling Imperial Army troops to also draw out some troops to move closer to Itagaki Seishiro's department for reinforcements. There are also at least 3,000 men and horses in these two places, and together, after an hour of Itagaki Seishiro, there will be at least 10,000 total troops. ”。
"Your Excellency Commander, in this case, Seishiro Itagaki will at least not feel the lack of troops at that time." Taro Miyano said out loud.
Yoshio Shinozuka bowed his head, waved his hand and said, "Then send a report and inform Seishiro Itagaki that there will be reinforcements." In accordance with his battle plan, let's carry out the plan of attack on the new regiment base area in China. ”。
"Yes, Your Excellency, Commander! I understand it below. Miyano Taro secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly responded, and immediately sent someone to inform Itagaki Seishiro.
At this time, the fierce battle at the mouth of the Jinlong Gorge was also happening.
Because the distance of several hundred meters in front of the mouth of the Jinlong Gorge was bulldozed by the new regiment, the effect of Itagaki Seishiro's command of the Japanese army's feint attack was very miserable. At least, several onslaughts, Seishiro Itagaki continued to feint, and there were also heavy casualties.
"Kill, kill, rush, drip, rush!"
The commander of the Japanese army on the front line kept roaring and commanding a small group of Japanese troops to feint to attack the mouth of the Jinlong Gorge, and hundreds of Japanese troops risked their lives to charge, but they were stunned and rushed to the newly dug trench at the mouth of the canyon and could not rush through. In addition, the ground at the mouth of the canyon has been bulldozed, and the line of sight is very good for the defenders, and a shuttle shoots machine gun bullets from pillboxes and trenches mercilessly killing the Japanese soldiers in sight.
The little devils fell down one by one as if they were cutting wheat, and the Japanese soldiers who were charging in the rear saw that the little devils in front of them were shot by machine guns one by one.
"Damn, this is already the eighth feint charge, and it can't even rush through the trench built by the other party in front of Taniguchi. Eight Ga Ya Road! ”
In the temporary hidden headquarters, at a distance of at least five hundred meters from Taniguchi, Seishiro Itagaki put down the binoculars in his hand and cursed.
The eighth feint charge, although there was a plan to contain and paralyze the opponent's Taniguchi defenders. However, after eight offensives, they couldn't cross the opponent's trench, which would be too embarrassing for Itagaki Division, which made Itagaki Seishiro angry.
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, the feint troops have withdrawn. Eight feints, our casualties continue to grow. The casualties caused by these eight feints add up, and three or four hundred people have lost their combat effectiveness. ”
A few minutes later, Major General Ueno, chief of staff of the division, who specializes in counting battle losses, walked up to Seishiro Itagaki and reported in a low voice.
"Nani?"
Seishiro Itagaki was surprised: "So many losses? How can it be? ”。
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, the opponent's machine gun fire is too much. Moreover, the terrain hundreds of meters in front of the valley mouth was bulldozed by the opponent early, so it was difficult for our imperial warriors to find mounds and low potholes where they could shoot covertly during the charge. Even if there are earthen pits blown open by shells, there are not many. Eight feints, although each feint is not a large number of people, but the combined casualties will increase. ”
"Damn!" Seishiro Itagaki clenched his fists fiercely and said angrily.
At this time, the Japanese staff officer in charge of communications on the side of the headquarters hurriedly walked up to the two old devils and said rightly: "Your Excellency the division commander, chief of staff, Taiyuan has called, I have ordered the imperial army to reinforce Pingxingguan to send 2,000, and the troops from Lingqiu and Guangling to send 3,000 to reinforce our department. In addition, the latest Zero fighters and 20 bombers were again mobilized from Xinkou to reinforce our unit in the air. ”。
