Chapter 682: The Inexplicable Defeat (First Update!) )

The Japanese military headquarters in Taiyuan, the commander who was still asleep was directly woken up by the chief of staff!

"Sir, something has happened, something has happened to Lingqiu!"

"The Fujino Brigade is in a hurry, and the garrison suddenly launched an attack on them tonight!"

Before the chief of staff finished speaking, the army commander scolded with a hint of dissatisfaction: "Eight Geya Road, the Fujino Brigade is a reinforced brigade, and it is also stationed together. The garrison regiment has just gone through a big battle, and both the strength and combat effectiveness have been greatly weakened, even if the whole garrison regiment is dispatched, the Fujino brigade has the ability to repel them, and if it is not good, it can still inflict heavy damage on them, what is there to report in a hurry? ”

The chief of staff hurriedly explained: "Sir, I think so too! ”

"But the real situation is very different from our judgment!"

"Not only did the Fujino brigade fail to repel the attack of the garrison, but it was defeated and could be wiped out at any time!"

"This is a farewell telegram sent by Fujino Shaosa himself, and before the message is received, the signal is cut off, and then they can't be contacted!"

"Nani?" The commander stared at a pair of big eyes, and his face was full of incredulity!

Then he got up from the bed, put on his military uniform and rushed to the war room, commanding as he went: "What about the telegram?" Did you say why the garrison regiment was able to inflict heavy damage on one of our reinforced brigades! ”

"Hey!"

The chief of staff hurriedly handed over the electric board, and then reported: "Fujino Shaosa said on the telegram that the garrison regiment attacking them had only two battalions at most, but they were armed with a large number of heavy mortars, with a caliber of at least two hundred millimeters!" ”

"In the face of such a powerful super-caliber mortar, the turrets and machine-gun bunkers held by the troops are all useless!"

"More than seventy percent of the soldiers of the entire Fujino Brigade were killed by this super-large caliber mortar!"

The commander directly showed an expression of disbelief and retorted loudly: "This is impossible! ”

"Such a large-caliber mortar is not only not equipped by the Imperial Army, but also rarely equipped by other countries! The Eighth Route Army has almost no ability to produce its own heavy weapons, where did they get such large-caliber mortars! ”

"I don't believe it!"

"It must be Fujino Shaosa who suffered defeat on the battlefield, and in order to shirk responsibility, he deliberately made up this super-large caliber mortar!"

"Or maybe the Eighth Route Army used some powerful home-made weapon, which was mistaken for a super-large caliber mortar by Fujino Shaosa!"

The chief of staff shook his head and replied: "I don't know what the specific situation is!" ”

"Our contact with the Fujino Brigade has been cut off, so we can only send planes over after dawn to reconnoiter and find out what is going on there?"

Before the chief of staff finished speaking, the communications staff officer suddenly rushed over and interrupted, his face was very ugly!

"Sir, Honda Brigade Emergency!"

"They were attacked by the garrison, and the garrison was also equipped with super-large caliber mortars, and the troops suffered heavy casualties, and the whole army could be wiped out at any time!"

"Nani?" The commander snatched the telegram and began to browse it!

The more you look at your face, the more embarrassed you become!

If only Fujino sent a telegram saying that the garrison regiment was armed with super-large-caliber mortars, he could still doubt it!

Now that the two captains are saying this, even if they still want to deny it, they can't find a reason!

He could only stare at a pair of big stunned eyes, and cried out in a lost voice: "How is this possible? ”

"How can the Eighth Route Army be equipped with super-large-caliber mortars that the imperial army is not equipped with, do they have their own arsenal and can produce their own super-large-caliber mortars!"

"And! Can anyone tell me what this garrison is trying to do! ”

"How long has it stopped, and then took the initiative to provoke a war!"

"And as soon as they came up, they used super-caliber mortars that we had never seen before, and killed our two reinforced brigades at once!"

When the army commander was about to continue scolding, another communications staff officer hurriedly ran over, and his face was even more unsightly than the communications staff officer just now!

"Sir! Murakami's brigade is in a hurry! ”

"They were attacked by a garrison regiment, which was equipped with heavy artillery, and the troops suffered heavy losses and were in dire need of reinforcements!"

The commander stared at the big eyes and asked, "The Murakami brigade has also been attacked?" ”

"Plus the Murakami Brigade is three infantry brigades, does the garrison want to eat some of our three brigades in one night!"

"That's right! You just said that Murakami's brigade is just asking for help, and it is not yet time for the whole army to be destroyed! Can you still contact the Murakami Brigade and let him figure out what the super-caliber mortars equipped by the garrison regiment are at all costs! ”

"Because of the existence of this weapon, the garrison regiment can attack our three brigades in one night and completely annihilate two of them!"

"This shows the power of this weapon and the threat to us! If we don't figure it out, we'll have to suffer a big loss against the garrison in the future! ”

"Hey!"

The communications staff officer hurriedly rushed to the telecommunications room, and the chief of staff followed!

At the station of the Murakami Brigade, He Jun, the commander of the first battalion, and Liu Senyun, the commander of the newly established special service battalion, the two of them were half-squatting on the offensive position, staring at the battlefield without blinking!

The devil's garrison is too big, the ring position is also large, and two lines of defense have been built, and the troops are very scattered!

A dynamite bag smashed over, even if the power was huge, it could only kill a few little devils, and there was no way to bring out the powerful power of the flying thunder cannon!

He Jun had an idea and thought of driving away the wolf!

Concentrate all the troops and firepower of the two battalions, plus three flying thunder guns, make a hole in the devil's defense line, force the devils to give up the first-line position, and all retreat to the second-line position, which is also the last line of defense of the stronghold!

From the beginning of the attack to now, for a full five hours, the two of them have been working this matter!

With the last three hours left until dawn, the two men's goal was achieved.

More than 700 days of puppet troops, all shrunk in the second line of defense!

"Battalion Commander He, the Japanese puppet army is very concentrated now, and if you go over with an explosives package, you can reimburse most of the squad if you don't do it!" Liu Senyun's eyes lit up and analyzed!

"We have twelve flying thunder cannons, I mean split into four, three in each direction, and fire at the same time!"

"After the first shot, move on, and then move on to the second shot!"

"Three explosives packs per cannon are over, that's thirty-six explosive packs!"

"Even if one explosive package only kills and injures fifteen little devils, all thirty-six explosive packages add up to five hundred puppet troops!"

He Jun quickly made a decision: "Just fight like this!" ”

"Prepare the troops for the attack!"

"After all three rounds of explosives were thrown, all the buglers blew the trumpet together, and the two battalions all launched an attack, and the battle ended as soon as possible!"

In the central turret of the stronghold, Murakami Shaozuo's face was very undaring!

Although there are still more than 700 people under his hands, the secret weapon exposed by the garrison regiment is too powerful, and it explodes a large area!

In the face of the next offensive of the garrison regiment, he had no confidence at all!

"Sir, the military department has an urgent telegram: let's find out the secret weapon of the garrison regiment at all costs, and then report it!" The operator ran over with a telegram in his hand and reported!

"How do you figure it out!"

At the desperate juncture of life and death, Murakami Shaozo couldn't care about his superiors or not, and scolded directly!

"We are surrounded by the garrison regiment tightly, nearly ten heavy machine guns are aimed at us, and there are dozens of light machine guns, and the troops rush out to die in vain, how to figure it out!"

"Call back to the military headquarters, our department was fiercely attacked by the garrison regiment, and the super-large caliber heavy artillery they are equipped with is extremely powerful, we have suffered heavy losses, and we are no longer able to launch a counterattack, ask for support!"

"Hey!"

The operator quickly answered! Just about to turn around and go back to the telegram!

"Boom, boom, boom......"

A series of dull explosions suddenly sounded in the offensive positions of the garrison regiment!

Everyone rushed to the lookout and raised their binoculars to see what was going on!

"Boom ......"

Soon, one after another, huge fireballs five or six meters high appeared in their field of vision, rising from the ground outside the turret!

Then the earth-shaking explosion reached their ears, and their ears buzzed!

Murakami Shaoza frowned, his face was very ugly, and he even had a painful expression!

But what he didn't know, a deadly attack had reached his head!

"Boom ......"

A thunderous explosion sounded directly outside the turret!

An explosive package was unfortunate and smashed right next to the turret and exploded!

Before Murakami could react, a powerful shock wave poured in from the lookout and pushed himself directly to the ground!

The moment a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth, the whole person also collapsed to the ground, silent!

The adjutant, the telegraph operator, and several officers of the command headquarters, all of them were all shocked to death, bleeding from all over the body, and collapsed to the ground motionless!

When the chief of staff of the Taiyuan Japanese Army Headquarters returned to the war room, his face was extremely embarrassed!

Under the gaze of the army commander, he hesitated for a long time before he replied: "Sir, we have also lost contact with the Murakami brigade!" ”

"I judge that they should have been eaten by the garrison as well!"

The three infantry brigades were all wiped out in one night, and even though he was in charge of tens of thousands of elites under his hands, the commander of such a loss speed could not bear it!

What's more, the three brigades were all inexplicably defeated, and they didn't even figure out the specific reasons!

He opened his mouth and wanted to scold, but when the words came to his mouth, he couldn't scold!

In the face of the garrison regiments that brought huge losses to the imperial army one after another, the army commander had a sense of frustration and powerlessness!

Seeing that the army commander didn't speak for a long time, the chief of staff couldn't help but ask: "Sir, what should we do next!" ”

"Check, find out what the secret weapon equipped by the garrison is?"

"Before this matter is clarified, no one or any unit can take the initiative to attack the garrison regiment and provoke a war!"

"I don't want to hear about any more Imperial troops being killed by the secret weapons equipped by the garrison!"

"Also, report this matter to the Front Army Headquarters immediately!"

"In the face of the garrison's powerful secret weapon, we must have an equal amount of heavy weapons to take them down! Otherwise, no matter how many imperial troops are killed, it will also be sent to death, and the garrison regiment will be given war merits in vain! ”
