When there was a big explosion at the arsenal, Rio Yoshino was on the phone. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The call was made to the prisoner of war camp, because there was a faint sound of gunfire from the direction of the prisoner of war camp outside the city just now, and Yoshino wanted to call to ask what was going on over there, but Yoshino Rio found that the phone could not be connected, and the operator reported that the line was not working.

It turned out that before Zhao Baishi attacked the prisoner of war camp, he had sent someone to cut the telephone line leading to the outside world in the prisoner of war camp in advance, in order to cut off the contact between the defenders of the prisoner of war camp and the outside world.

Therefore, if Yoshino Rio can get through to the prisoner of war camp, then it is called a ghost.

Yoshino Rio asked for the phone three times in a row, but he couldn't get through, and he felt a faint uneasiness in his heart.

Could it be an accident in a prisoner of war camp? You must know that at this time, the prisoner of war camp held not only more than 400 prisoners of war of the Cantonese army, but also more than 1,200 prisoners of war of the Sichuan army, these prisoners of war of the Sichuan army were just transferred from the Anqing prisoner of war camp by Rio Yoshino, and they were originally going to settle down in the Wagyu cattle farm in Takeno Taji to grow opium.

But I didn't expect that in the end, such a huge change would happen!

Now that Commander Okamura was assassinated, and the chief of staff of the Eleventh Army, Yoshimoto Sadachi, also pursued and killed the assassins, and now the entire Jiujiang City has been leaderless, and he, the commander of the military police, has become the temporary supreme commander and is forced to take charge of the city defense of Jiujiang, but the forces available to him are only two squadrons.

There was an accident in the prisoner of war camp, but it was actually nothing.

Even if all the more than 1,000 prisoners of war held in the camp had fled, it would not be a big deal.

But Rio Yoshino can't help but worry that if the incident in the POW camp is not an isolated incident, and if the incident in the POW camp is related to the assassination of Commander Okamura, the consequences will be unimaginable, because it also means that the assassination of Commander Okamura is only the beginning of a whole series of action plans, and there will be big moves to follow!

The more Yoshino thought about it, the more he felt that the possibility was extremely great, and his heart immediately rose to his throat.

At that moment, Yoshino Rio picked up the phone again and said urgently, "Pick me up!" ”

Since the Japanese captured Madang Fortress two months ago, the headquarters of the Japanese Navy's River Defense Fleet has been moved from Nanjing to Madang Fortress to support the offensive on both sides of the Yangtze River nearby, but Yoshino Rio called the Jiangfang Fleet Headquarters in Madang to ask for help, because the Jiujiang city defense was extremely empty at this time.

If the prisoners of war in the Gantang prisoner of war camp were rescued and armed, then Jiujiang would be in danger.

At this time, it was too late to ask for help from the field division on the front line, and Yoshimoto Sadachi would not send troops back to help, so the only thing Yoshino Rio could think of was to urge the marines to hurry over.

Soon the phone was connected, and Rio Yoshino said urgently: "Maxi Maxi, I'm Rio Yoshino, Commander Noike?" ”

The other end of the phone replied: "Maxi Maxi, Your Excellency the Commander has personally led the Marines to help Jiujiang, and I am the chief of staff, Shenbao Tatsuya." ”

Yoshino Rio said again: "Jimbau-san, how long has Commander Noike been gone?" ”

Shen Baoda also replied: "Your Excellency the Commander left yesterday evening, and it should be almost Jiujiang." ”

Yoshino Rio let out a sigh of relief when he heard this, and was about to say thank you, when there was a sudden loud bang outside the headquarters, and then the ground under his feet began to tremble slightly, Yoshino Rio was startled, and immediately hung up the phone and rushed out of the door, and saw a dazzling red light in the southwest direction one after another.

Then, even the ground beneath his feet began to shake violently.

"What's the situation, what's going on?" Rio Yoshino was stunned.

"Captain, it looks like there's an explosion in the arsenal." Said an officer of the gendarmerie.

"Nani, the arsenal?!" Rio Yoshino immediately broke out in a bean-sized cold sweat on his forehead.

If there is an explosion in the arsenal, the consequences will be unimaginable, because Jiujiang is not only the location of the headquarters of the 11th Army, but also the transfer station of all the war materials of the 11th Army, and most of the war materials delivered to the various divisions and regiments on the front line will pass through Jiujiang, so the amount of ammunition stored in the Jiujiang arsenal is very considerable!

If there is really an explosion in the arsenal, it will seriously affect the process of the battle in Wuhan!

"Yaga!" Rio Yoshino cursed, immediately picked up the phone again and shook the handle vigorously, and then yelled hysterically into the microphone, "Give me the arsenal, give me the arsenal, pick up the arsenal, hurry, hurry!" ”

The female operator was yelled at by Yoshino Rio, whose eardrums were numb, and immediately rushed to transfer the line of the arsenal.

Unfortunately, however, after the line of the arsenal was connected, there was no response, just like the prisoner of war camp outside the city.

"Smack!" As soon as Yoshino Rio's hand was released, the telephone that he was still holding in his hand just now fell to the ground, and then Yoshino Rio fell back into his chair, although it has not yet been finally confirmed, but reason is telling Yoshino Rio that like the prisoner of war camp, there is a chance that something has happened in the arsenal!

It's just that Yoshino Rio still has a trace of fantasy in his heart after all.

However, the last remaining illusion was soon shattered by the cruel facts.

A moment later, an orderly hurriedly ran in to report that the arsenal had indeed been blown up!

Yoshino Rio's eyes suddenly darkened, and he almost fainted on the spot, but after being stunned for a moment, Yoshino Rio quickly came to his senses, stood up and shouted: "Order, the second infantry squadron rushes to the station!" Stop! Order the 2nd Infantry Squadron to rush to the station, go to the station quickly! ”

Jiujiang is the location of the headquarters of the 11th Army of the Japanese Army, and there are many valuable military targets, but there are actually only three really high-value military targets.

Therefore, there are not only munitions, but also food, clothing, medicine and oil stockpiled in the station warehouse!

Moreover, the arms hoarded in the station warehouse were even more than the arms hoarded in the arsenal in the city, because the general attack plan formulated by Okamura Ninji had already begun, and the military supplies originally hoarded in Jiujiang had also begun to be transported to the front line, so a large amount of materials were stored in the station warehouse in advance.

Now, the city's arsenal has been destroyed.

If the military supplies stored in the warehouse of the Chengxi Station were also destroyed by the enemy, then the general attack plan of the Eleventh Army would be stillborn immediately, and without the supplies, what would the six and a half divisions of the Eleventh Army use to attack? Do you want the hundreds of thousands of officers and men of the Eleventh Army to attack with bayonets?

So, no matter what, the station can't be lost again!

Yoshino Rio didn't plan to go to the station in the west of the city, but just before the second infantry squadron left, Yoshino Rio changed his mind and decided to personally lead the mobile forces of the last remaining squadron to rush to the station.

(Dividing Line)

Yoshino's departure was really helpless, but it also caused the Jiujiang defense to be even more empty.

Zhao Baishi led the expanded Sichuan Army to Jiujiang, except for a certain amount of resistance outside the east gate, and then almost no more decent resistance, the progress of the war was smoother than Zhao Baishi imagined, and at dawn, there were constantly heralds who fed back the latest progress of the various infantry battalions.

"Report, a battalion has captured the Devil Command!"

"Report, the second battalion has taken control of the Jiujiang gendarmerie!"

"Report, the third battalion has rushed to the arsenal, but Battalion Commander Xue reported that the fire in the arsenal is too big, and the previous explosion was too violent, all the materials have been destroyed, and the rescue value has been lost."

Listening to the repeated reports of the first, second, and third battalions, Zhao Baishi couldn't help but blossom with joy.

Good guys, I thought there would be a vicious battle, but I didn't expect Jiujiang's defenses to be even more empty than expected, they almost didn't have any twists and turns, and they actually took Jiujiang City, turtle son drop, this is Jiujiang, this is the location of the headquarters of the eleventh army of the little devil, so let them take it?

Suddenly, Zhao Baishi felt that all this was a little unreal.

It wasn't until the communications soldiers of the fourth battalion came to report that Zhao Baishi finally returned to reality.

"Report!" The fourth battalion is an infantry battalion temporarily formed by prisoners of war of the Cantonese army, and the communication soldiers are also Cantonese, and they speak with a strong Cantonese accent, "Our battalion was stubbornly resisted by the devils at the dock, the devils were very fierce, and there were gunboats on the river to support, our battalion suffered very heavy casualties, and asked for emergency support from friendly forces!" ”

Hearing that the fourth battalion was resisted at the Jiujiang wharf and asked for support, Zhao Baishi breathed a sigh of relief.

That's right, how can a little devil be so unbeaten, right? Everything is normal now.

At that moment, Zhao Baishi shouted: "Pass my order, the first battalion, the second battalion, and the third battalion each leave a company to clean up the battlefield, and by the way, clean up the stubborn little devils in the city, and the rest of the companies will all be pulled to Jiujiang Wharf for me, and I will work hard with the dog, and tell Lao Tzu that those turtle sons are all fucking cheered up, and this time we will definitely fight the majesty of our Sichuan army!" ”

With an order, more than a dozen heralds immediately divided into three teams and went separately, Zhao Baishi also hurried to the dock with the last remaining company around him, and in just a moment, only a little peach and Xu Rui on a stretcher were left near the east gate, and an infantry squad that Zhao Baishi specially stayed to protect Xu Rui.

When Xiao Taohong was hesitating to find medicine, Leng Tiefeng arrived.

Leng Tiefeng They met the Sichuan army outside the arsenal just now, only to know that Xu Rui was on the east gate, and was injured in the operation to assassinate Okamura Ningci, and was now suffering from a high fever.

"Captain!" Seeing Leng Tiefeng, Xiao Taohong was like seeing a relative, and tears immediately burst into her eyes.

"Little Pink, it's okay, it's okay." Leng Tiefeng hurriedly comforted Xiao Taohong, then hurriedly walked to Xu Rui's stretcher, reached out to probe Xu Rui's forehead, and found that it was terrifyingly hot. (To be continued.) )
