Command of the 45th Wing of the Japanese Army.

Shao Zuo made a stand up to the commander of the joint commander: "Report to Your Excellency the joint commander, your subordinates have found out the specific origin of the new weapons of the Chinese army!"

The Wing Commander put down the teacup in his hand and took a copy of the investigation report: "Oh, the MG34 general-purpose machine gun? Isn't this the fire support weapon of the infantry squad of our allies of the Third Reich? ”

Shao Zuo responded: "Exactly! The MG34 general-purpose machine gun was the backbone of infantry support fire in the German Army. I think that our Imperial Army Headquarters also considered equipping this kind of weapon back then, but unfortunately this weapon consumes too many bullets, and as soon as the trigger is pulled, thousands of bullets will be used up in three minutes, and the logistics supply of the empire is really unbearable! ”

The commander of the wing commander pondered for a moment, and a heart-wrenching look appeared on his face: "The imperial resources are limited, and the logistics supply has always advocated streamlining and saving, and I really can't afford to play this kind of local tyrant thing, but the lethality of this machine gun is really too great, just in this battle, the imperial army has nearly 200 warriors loyal to the emperor."

Shao Zuo nodded: "Yes, if this general-purpose machine gun can be equipped with our Imperial Army, it may not be a problem to destroy China in three months." It is also unknown how the Chinese army purchased this machine gun, and according to the reports of Imperial intelligence officers, the Third Reich did not sign any arms purchase agreement with the Ministry of Military Affairs of China regarding this machine gun. ”

I don't know when, the Wing Commander's face became gloomy, and he shouted in a deep voice: "No matter what, we have to find a way to deal with that machine gun at present, and next time the Wing Commander will not see any casualty data on the new machine gun of the Chinese army killing and wounding our Imperial soldiers!" To deal with the MG34 general-purpose machine gun, I wonder if Kawaguchi Shaoza has any positive suggestions? ”

Kawaguchi Shaozo hesitated for a while, and said: "The ancient art of war said that it is better to cut off one finger than to hurt ten fingers, and the soldiers of the empire can concentrate on beating the machine gun when attacking, and according to my observation, the machine gun did not appear in other positions of the Nanjing defenders, and all the weapons were called to focus on attacking the new machine gun, as long as the machine gun could no longer provide suppressive firepower, my 45th Wing would be as simple as drinking sake to take the Yuhuatai position."

The commander of the wing showed a satisfied look on his face: "Kawaguchi-kun's idea is not bad, it deserves to be a China expert, it seems that I am not wrong!"

Kawaguchi Shaozo hurriedly bent down towards the commander of the wing: "Thanks to the cultivation of His Excellency the captain, this is just the responsibility of his subordinates!"

The co-captain laughed, and then shouted again: "Kawaguchi-kun is too modest." Who in the 123rd Brigade is willing to take the lead and take the position of the Chinese army in one fell swoop. ”

As soon as the words fell, Captain Miura, who was standing on the side, had already taken the lead and asked: "The subordinates are willing to take the lead, clear the offensive obstacles for the entire 45th Wing, and avenge the shame of the 200 subordinates who died in battle."

The wing commander patted Captain Miura on the shoulder and said with extremely serious eyes: "I will leave it to Miura-kun to get the big task of getting that machine gun."

Captain Miura raised his head sharply, and stood up to the commander of the joint captain: "Guarantee to complete the mission and serve the emperor!"

The wing commander ordered the other two squadron leaders: "Kumamoto-kun and Takeshita-kun, as the second and third echelons, are ready to support Miura-kun's first brigade at any time!"

Captain Kumamoto and Captain Miura responded in unison, "Hay!"

Looking around at the adjutants in the tent, His Excellency the Wing Commander shouted in a muffled voice: "Ladies and gentlemen, the commander of Gu Shoufu's division will arrive in our war zone tomorrow, and I hope that all the adjutants will work together to take Yuhuatai in one fell swoop, and give Gu Shoufu division commander a meeting gift."

The aura of bushido became more and more intense, and all the adjutants in the field tent shouted in unison: "Take down Yuhuatai, serve the empire, and never give up, never give up."

The rules of the game in the international community have always been like this: the law of the jungle is the strong.

The strong tend to look for pleasure in the weak.

At this time, in East Asia, one side was a modern army with strong troops, and the army, navy, and air force were neat; And China's military structure is seriously unbalanced, coupled with the fragmentation of the army and the abundance of factions, it simply cannot be twisted into a rope.

This island nation is standing on the high platform of the strong, and since the September 18 incident, it has been eyeing the weak Chinese territory.

Whether it was the northern battlefield or the southern battlefield, the Japanese army was like a bamboo, attacking cities and conquering places, invincible, and invincible, as if it was a tiger and wolf army in East Asia.

A strong **** stench is polluting China's peaceful environment, from the fertile Northeast for thousands of miles, to North China, to the economically developed East China, to the ten-mile ocean field of Shanghai, and then to Nanjing, the heart of the national capital.

The command post of the 262nd Brigade Headquarters of the central position of Yuhuatai.

Chief Zhu was carefully inspecting a dusty map of the Yuhuatai position.

The deputy brigade commander standing on the side smiled slightly: "This reserve first regiment fought well just now!" Don't look at the ninety percent of the support troops sent by the division headquarters are recruits, but they are stunned to block the attack of the elite wing of the sixth division, not bad! Bloody! Like the soldiers of my 88th Brigade of the 262nd Division. ”

Chief Zhu threw the pencil in his hand and said, "Don't say it, at first I thought I had to reinforce the first reserve regiment, but I didn't expect that the first reserve regiment not only suffered few casualties, but actually killed nearly two hundred devils." Eh, who is the commander of this reserve regiment? ”

Looking away from the map, the deputy brigade commander pushed his glasses slightly: "Liang Shanhao, the ninth infantry section of the Central Military Academy, although this kid has just come out of the military academy to lead the troops, he is much more capable than the military commanders of our other two main regiments."

Commander Zhu nodded, and then shouted: "Correspondent, send me a telegram ordering the commander of the first regiment to come to the brigade headquarters for a meeting, and the other two regiment commanders will also be called."

Communications Platoon Commander: "Report to the brigade, just now the devil's artillery fire blew up our telephone line, and we can't use the phone to get in touch!"

Chief Zhu's face sank slightly: "Has the telephone line been repaired?" It must be repaired within ten minutes, and the devil is about to attack! If the delivery of military news is delayed, then you should come to see you! ”

The communications platoon commander replied repeatedly: "Yes! Mission completion guaranteed! ”

The deputy brigade commander, who had been silent, also ordered: "Send a few messengers to run to inform the three regiment commanders to come to the brigade headquarters for a meeting!" Fast! ”

The communications platoon commander replied: "Yes!"

Seeing that the communications platoon commander ran out of the command post, Chief Zhu smiled at the deputy brigade commander: "Haha! Those who know me, the deputy brigade also. ”

The deputy brigade commander responded: "Brigade seat, this kid surnamed Liang has two brushes, we have to see what he has to defend the tricks, the devil's attack has been too fierce recently, I don't want to make a move, and the 3,000 people in the brigade can't last a few days in this Yuhuatai."

The Yuhuatai position is the gateway to the Zhonghua Gate, and once the Yuhuatai falls into the hands of the enemy, the devils can kill the Zhonghua Gate and threaten the defense of Nanjing.

And guarding the Zhonghua Gate in Nanjing is the new 88 Brigade of the 1st Division, almost all of the brigade are new soldiers, and the weapons are not all German weapons, and the combat effectiveness cannot be compared with the 262 Brigade and the 264 Brigade at all, let alone face to face with the devils.

The 262nd Brigade and the 264th Brigade must guard the entire Yuhuatai defense area, and not a single devil can be put in.

There are millions of people in the city.

Once the devil comes in, the common people will suffer.

As one of the military commanders of the Yuhuatai position, Chief Zhu knew that he had a heavy responsibility.

Chief Zhu replied with a deep groan: "That's what I mean. A fledgling cadet actually fought so well in the first battle, it must be an outstanding point, and I have to make good use of it. ”

Deputy Brigade Commander: "What the Brigade said is extremely true."

One general is incompetent, and the three armies are exhausted. A good commander, on the other hand, is able to maximize the energy of his limited forces, inflicting heavy damage on the enemy, while at the same time preserving himself.

Therefore, the two brigade commanders attach great importance to the discovery and use of regimental officers, and a good commander is too important for a unit.

The so-called thousands of troops are easy to obtain, but one will be hard to find.

Commander Zhu originally thought that the reserve team, which was almost full of recruits, was just professional cannon fodder and of little use, but he didn't expect the division headquarters to send him a treasure.
