Chapter 691: Eleventh Division

readx; "Bell bell bell ......"

The phone rang in a hurry, and Yoshio Suzuka's desk rang. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Moxi Moxi, I'm Yoshio Suzuka. Nani...... Tai1 was bombed at the original Nanxin Airport, and the 32nd team was hit hard? Yaga, what do you eat, why did this happen, and what did you, the commander of the airport security, do to eat? It's happening right under your nose, well, I don't want to hear your explanation, you better go to the military court and explain it to the judge! ”

With a "snap", Yoshio Suzuka slapped the phone heavily on the landline, and before he could sit down to catch his breath, the office door was pushed open, and the chief of staff, Major General Hanayamasa, hurriedly walked in with a telegram

He lost his voice and said to Yoshio Suzuka: "Your Excellency Commander, it's not good! I have just received a report that five or six airfields, such as the Taiyi Yuan Nanxin Airport, the Jinicheng Airport, and the Linifen Airport, have all been attacked by the China Air Force, and our air force has suffered extremely heavy losses, and so far we have lost more than 280 warplanes. ”

"Snap"

A soft sound came, and it turned out to be Yoshio Suzuka who sat heavily on the chair, and muttered in his mouth: "How can this be, how can it be like this, is it possible that the anti-aircraft artillery units at airports everywhere are idiots, how can they allow the people of China to bomb our airports like this." ”

Hanaya shook his head bitterly and said: "Your Excellency Commander, I got the news that the people of China used nearly a hundred heavy bombers, and under the cover of hundreds of fighters, they first used the German-made Stuka dive bomber to bomb all the anti-aircraft guns in the airport from a high altitude at an almost vertical angle, and then the people of China used that heavy bomber to drop a bomb called the devil's egg, which can kill a large number of anti-aircraft artillery units and ground crews of the empire, causing heavy losses to the empire. When he said this, Hanayamasa's voice was full of anger and helplessness.

"Demon eggs?" Yoshio Suzuka looked at Hanaya Masashi with some doubts.

Hanaya waved his hand, and two soldiers walked into the office carrying a bomb that was about 40 centimeters in diameter and had a horizontal grid inside.

"Commander, look!"

Hanaya was walking up to the bomb and pointed to the bomb and said, "This is the kind of bomb that the Shina people use, this kind of bomb will explode at a low altitude, and then hundreds of balls the size of fists will scatter inside, and when the ball hits the ground, it will explode, emitting crackling firecrackers, and the hundreds of steel balls inside will fly everywhere to kill and injure the Empire's anti-aircraft gunners and ground crews on the runway." And that's not all, these bombs also have a flake-like incendiary tablet that automatically ignites the tent and causes a fire, which is really vicious. ”

The devil's egg that Hanaya is talking about is actually the first sub-bomb invented and used by the Germans, and this sub-bomb was invented to kill and injure people on the ground. And this kind of sub-munition is like a nemesis for the anti-aircraft artillery troops, once one or two sub-munitions fall into the anti-aircraft artillery position without perfect protective fortifications, there is a chance that the anti-aircraft artillery will be scrapped, not only will the personnel be killed and injured in large numbers, but even the anti-aircraft artillery itself will be ignited by the flames spewed out when the sub-munitions explode and the ammunition will be martyred. Because the shrapnel and steel balls in the bullet are very small, most of the people who are shot are internal injuries, which do not hurt the arteries and blood vessels, and the skin surface is only red spots, which is difficult to find without stripping off clothes, often delaying the rescue time, resulting in death. After the wounded are healed, they are left with purple grape-shaped sarcoma, and the shrapnel like slag is difficult to remove in the body, often causing lifelong illness and pain, and the end is extremely vicious.

Looking at the shell casings on the table, which were more than one person long, the smooth and clean grenade-like mother bullets that had cracked, and the pile of steel balls in the shells, Yoshio Suzuka gasped. This shrapnel and steel ball may seem small and powerful, but once it is shot into the human body, it will definitely make all surgeons despair, no doctor can take such a small object out of the body of the wounded, which also means that these objects the size of fine sand will accompany those wounded for a lifetime.

After seeing such a thing, even Yoshio Suzuka, who thought that his heart was already very hard, couldn't help but grit his teeth and exclaim: "Such a vicious thing is something I have never seen in the nearly thirty years I have been in the army, and the person who made this kind of thing is simply a devil." ”

Hua Gu on the side said sadly: "Your Excellency Commander, according to the report, today alone, we have thousands of imperial soldiers killed or injured by this vicious weapon, and now many imperial warriors have a fear of this weapon, and many people claim that they would rather be killed by the machine guns of the people of China than tortured by this vicious weapon for a lifetime, especially those anti-aircraft gun shooters, because this weapon seems to have been invented to deal with them." ”

Yoshio Suzuka's face became very gloomy, in order to hold the Nakajo Mountain, he continued to ask the Kwantung Army and the North China Front Army to send more troops, and now the First Army alone has more than 300 aircraft, originally Yoshio Suzuka planned to use these planes to seize air supremacy and then use air superiority to kill and injure a large number of ground troops in China, but he never thought that most of the planes he had finally obtained were destroyed in just one day's work, and he planned to do so at once.

Hanaya said with a worried face: "Your Excellency Commander, now that the Shina planes have completely occupied the sky of Zhongtiao Mountain, they will definitely carry out a large-scale bombardment of our positions next, what should we do?" Do you want to continue to ask for assistance from the Kwantung Army and Commander Tada? ”

"There is no aid in North China anymore." Yoshio Suzuka shook his head in frustration and said, "In order to support Nakajo Mountain, the Kwantung Army has already transferred a quarter of its aviation troops. Commander Tada even gave us support from the 21st and 35th Divisions, the 4th Cavalry Brigade, and the 3rd Flying Brigade, and Commander Tada's task was also very heavy, and now almost 30 percent of the forces of the North China Front Army were hoarded in the JSAH area to confront the Third Army of China, and there was no extra force to support us at all. If you want to continue to increase the number of troops, you can only transfer troops from the country. ”

"But there are no more troops in the country, is it possible that even the first division has been transferred?" Hanaya was furrowed. Today's RB country can be described as extremely empty, the huge Japan I only the first division is stationed, if even the only division in the country is transferred to China, I am afraid that the Japanese I will become the laughing stock of the world. The fact that the Great Nippini Empire, which claims to be the most powerful country in Asia, did not even have a regular garrison in the country, was not telling the world that Japan had been reduced to a country with a foreign power and a middle force?

"If you don't continue to recruit soldiers, won't there still be 70 million people in the empire? Can't even a few divisions be drafted? ”

"But if you fight with these new recruits, the losses of the troops will be very large." Flower Valley was hesitating.

Yoshio Suzuka gritted his teeth and said viciously: "As long as you can hold Nakajo Mountain, what if the loss is great?" It is the glory of the emperor to die in battle for the sake of the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere and the Holy War of the Empire! Besides, the empire has 70 million loyal and brave subjects, and even if they die, how many can they die! ”

"Hay!"

Hearing this, Hanaya knew that Yoshio Suzuka had made up his mind, and he bowed to Yoshio Suzuka and walked out.

Yoshio Suzuka's determination to hold Mt. Nakajo is not insignificant, and at the same time, he is also mentally prepared for the huge price he will pay. However, he still did not expect that the determination and intensity of the Huaxia army's determination to win Zhongtiao Mountain would be beyond his expectations......

Heavy rain accompanied by strong winds fell on the vast Guanzhong Plain, and bright lightning flashed in the sky from time to time. In the wind and rain, a train dragging more than a dozen cars spewed white smoke and galloped across the wide plains, sometimes emitting loud whistles.

The front of the train was followed by a dozen stuffy tank cars, then a flatbed car with dozens of trucks and a few jeeps on top of the flatbed, and behind the flatbed was a completely enclosed compartment with only a low smoky white car that looked like a kitchen. Behind the carriage was a highly fenced carriage on which heavily armed Nationalist soldiers sat and a double-barreled anti-aircraft machine gun.

Ten minutes later, the train began to slow down, the brake shoe made a sharp grinding sound against the wheels, and then the body shook violently, and the speed of the train began to slow down. Soon the train diverged off another route and continued for about a few minutes before coming to a complete stop, slowly stopping at a wide and long platform.

At this time, the entire platform was crowded with busy people, full of heavily armed soldiers and civilians. Some of these people carried the salute with their families and prepared to move their families, while others were businessmen who came to the city.

After the train stopped, two officers of the national army wearing yellow tweed military uniforms jumped down from the front of the train, and with a sharp whistle, the stuffy tank car on the whole train opened, and soon a famous national officer and soldier jumped off the platform from the carriage, and the officers and soldiers who had just gotten off the platform looked out curiously, and for a time the platform and the open freight car door were full of curious national soldiers, and they looked at the city in front of them curiously.

"Is this Xi'an?"

Hu Lian looked at the city in front of him, and there was a hint of curiosity in his eyes, he was only thirty-five years old and became the commander of the most elite main division of the National Army, and he definitely belonged to the rare young Zhuang faction in the National Army. In the past two months, almost the entire Chinese national control area can see the news of Zhongtiao Mountain, it seems that Zhongtiao Mountain has become a decisive victory related to the future and destiny of China, in order to recover Zhongtiao Mountain, the national army has continuously sent reinforcements to Zhongtiao Mountain during this time, and Xi'an is a big city at the forefront of Zhongtiao Mountain, because of the relationship between Zhongtiao Mountain, the entire Xi'an has almost become a large barracks in recent times.

"Sir, the troops are all out of the car." Deputy division commander Luo Xianda walked to Hu Lian and said.

Hu Lian retracted his gaze and nodded: "Lao Luo, you take the troops to stand outside the city first, I will go to the theater headquarters to receive orders now, and it is estimated that I will be able to rush back to the troops in the afternoon!" ”

"Yes!"

As he spoke, some soldiers had already driven off the truck and jeep on the flatbed, and Hu Lian jumped into a jeep, which quickly disappeared into the station after starting.

An hour later, Hu Lian came to a heavily guarded courtyard in Curtain Lane, located in the northwest corner of Xi'an, and after some tedious inspections, Hu Lian was able to enter the First Theater Command.

Soon, Hu Lian met Wei Lihuang, the commander of the First War Zone.

Wei Lihuang looked at this energetic young and promising general and nodded with satisfaction, and then asked, "Senior Commander Hu, do you know why I specially asked you to come to the headquarters to receive orders?" ”

Hu Lian said loudly: "I don't know, please make it clear!" ”

"You come with me!"

Wei Lihuang walked to the huge sand table in the center of the battle hall, this sand table was already filled with dense blue and white small flags at this time, the blue flag represented the national army, and the white flag represented the Japanese army. From these small flags, we can see how fierce the battle between the national army and the Japanese army was at this time.

Wei Lihuang pointed to a place in the northwest corner and said: "Commander Hu, you see, the current battle situation is that our army has occupied Maojindu, Guanyang, Taizhai, Mengjin and Liaoyuan. At present, the focus of our competition with the Japanese army is concentrated in the area of Jiyuan, Huanqu, Sangchi and Eyuan, which is also the last line of defense of the Japanese army, as long as we can occupy here, then most of the entire Zhongtiao Mountain has fallen into the hands of our army, and the rest is not to worry. ”

Hu Lian touched his chin and pondered while listening to Wei Lihuang's words, and after a long time, he suddenly pointed to a place in the northeast corner and said, "Sir, this Hengling Pass is so important, why don't you have our troops?" ”

Wei Lihuang showed an appreciative smile on his face after seeing the place Hu Lian was referring to: "Master Hu is worthy of being a top student in the fourth phase of Huangpu, and he saw the key point of the Japanese army at once. Yes, this is indeed a key point of the Japanese defense, and it is also the support point of the Japanese army in the defense line of Zhongtiao Mountain, if we can take here, then the entire Japanese defense line of Zhongtiao Mountain will be cut off by our army. ”

Hu Lian didn't speak, just looked at Wei Lihuang quietly, he knew that in Wei Lihuang's eyes, since he didn't send troops to attack here, there must be a reason for him.

I saw Wei Lihuang let out a long breath before saying: "Actually, I don't want to capture this place, it's just that this is the focus of the Japanese army's defense, and the terrain is dangerous, and there is a Japanese military airfield nearby, as long as our army appears, the Japanese army will send fighters to bomb our ground troops, and our army has tried several times due to excessive casualties, and finally had to stop the attack." But now the opportunity has come, because just yesterday, our army dispatched a large number of fighters and bombers to carry out a large-scale bombing of the major Japanese airfields, blowing up and shooting down more than 280 Japanese troops, and it can be said that the air power of the Japanese army has been wiped out by us. Therefore, I have decided to entrust you with the task of capturing Hengling Pass, are you confident? ”

Hu Lian looked at the sand table and was silent for dozens of seconds, and a smile slowly appeared on his face: "Of course! (To be continued.) )
