The next morning, the sun was rising, and under the cover of a thin thick fog, the sun that looked like a red ball almost reflected the eastern sky. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The thin sunlight shines on the bridge city, giving people a warm feeling.

However, at this time, it was no longer the Japanese who had lived here for generations who stood in the middle of the castle to bask in the morning light, and all the large and small sun flags hanging at the head of the castle and in the castle were gone.

Instead, the blue sky and white sun flags standing solemnly on the four sides of the city were fluttering in the wind.

Last night, Xing Zhanqing led his tank troops to appear outside Xingqiao City by surprise with lightning speed.

&nbs―pig-pig-island-novel{zhu}{zhu}{dao}p; At that time, there were only a few local gendarmerie police stationed in the city, and there was no regular army. The nearest Japanese barracks to the city was also at the foot of a mountain forest fifty miles away.

These Japanese police and gendarmes are a mixed mix, including retired soldiers and local recruits, most of whom have been in the industry for a long time, but most of them have never been on the battlefield.

Even a few retired soldiers have been worn out by the peaceful years.

Such a trash force, which was only a few hundred in number, was suddenly attacked by a huge army composed of hundreds of tanks and combat vehicles, and the result can be imagined.

The devil gendarmerie police, who were completely in a panic, could not hold on for even an hour, and the armored soldiers of the Northeast Frontier Army broke into the city.

Before attacking the city, Xing Zhan ordered people to surround the four gates in the early morning, so more than 500 devil gendarmerie police were all surrounded and annihilated in the city.

A few escaped into the homes of the relatives of the people in the city and were temporarily spared.

However, the escape of these devils also quickly brought bad results.

By daybreak, the Northeast Frontier Army had completely controlled the entire Xingqiao City, and had just defeated the Japanese reinforcements who had arrived fifty miles away.

An officer reported to Xing Zhanqing: "Sir, the Japanese resistance in the city has basically been wiped out, but, according to the report of the brothers below, many devils have hidden in some houses in the city, what do you think we should do?" ”

Xing Zhanqing's brows frowned slightly when he heard this. After pondering for a moment, he said: "Search, search from house to house, but if you find any suspicious people, all of them will be arrested immediately, and then they will be sent to the wilderness outside the city and buried alive!" ”

"Yes!" The officer quickly stepped forward to answer the promise, and immediately turned and walked away quickly.

After about two hours, the officer went back and forth sweating profusely, and said to Xing Zhanqing out of breath: "Sir, there are really a lot of devils who have broken into the people's houses." The brothers have already captured thousands. ”

Xing Zhanqing looked back at his subordinates who wanted to speak and stopped, and instantly understood the meaning of his subordinates' words.

Taking a deep breath of fresh air, Xing Zhanqing said in a low voice: "The devil's rout is endless, and it must be eliminated all, so ......"

Xing Zhanqing said that, raised his hand and made a clicking gesture.

The officer immediately saluted and took the order.

"Wait!" Xing Zhanqing suddenly raised his hand again and stopped him, and said, "At the same time, don't forget our mission while arresting people, and order the second battalion to destroy all the Japanese factories outside the city as soon as possible." Transportation facilities. ”

"Then I'm afraid I'll have to burn the city, because the lowly post has just been checked, and there are many enterprises and factories in Xingqiao that are built in the city." The officer said dryly.

"Then burn the city, and don't do anything. Pull all the devils out of the city, and then ...... Hum! Xing Zhanqing said in a murderous voice.

At noon on the same day, more than 20,000 devil soldiers and civilians in Xingqiao City were escorted out of the city in batches and buried alive by the Northeast Frontier Army. Strafing and other methods were all slaughtered.

After the bloodbath of the whole city, Xing Zhanqing ordered his subordinates to place explosives in the city and set fire to the city.

After a loud explosion. The whole city was covered in flames and billowing smoke.

After turning the bridge into ruins, Xing Zhanqing and the others continued to advance south along the eastern coastline of Kyushu Island, continuing their sabotage mission.

At the same time, in the direction of Kurume.

The reinforcements from the direction of Nagasaki and Kumamoto of the Japanese army, a total of one division and two wings, and about 30,000 people, finally arrived at Kurume by train.

Rendezvous with the 18th Division of Tanichi Nakamura.

Headquarters of the 18th Division.

Nakamura Taniichi and the current division commander of the Sixth Division, Igo Masaho, and others saluted each other one after another.

Greetings: "Yiwu-kun, Kobayashi-kun, you have finally arrived, great." ”

"Nakamura-kun, the situation on Kitakyushu Island is critical, let's not delay time, let's hurry up and set off with our headquarters." On the way here, Igo Masashi had already learned about the situation on Kitakyushu Island through a telegram, and immediately cut off.

"What Igo-kun said makes sense, but just now an urgent telegram has been sent from the base camp informing us that reinforcements from Honshu Island have begun to assemble and are rushing to the Kanmon Strait.

Do we advance to the Tagawa area first, wait for reinforcements from Honshu Island to arrive, and then agree to launch an attack at the same time, the possibility of success on both sides is much greater! Nakamura Tanichi: "After all, the combat effectiveness of the Shina people is quite strong, and with the strength of our two divisions alone, I am afraid it will be difficult to defeat them." ”

Hearing this, Igo Masashi nodded and said, "Well, what General Nakamura said is extremely true, we have already had a deep understanding of the combat effectiveness of the Shina people in Manchuria and Korea, so let's do as you say." ”

Igo was in harmony with the voice, and Nakamura Tanichi wanted to order the troops to set off.

A rush of footsteps came from outside: "Report~!" ”

A Japanese lieutenant ran in in a hurry, and before he could salute, he said, "Report to Your Excellency General, and report urgently on the bridge!" ”

"Walkbridge?" Nakamura Guichi and Igo Masaho and Baiga Yungo and others were all shocked, and Nakamura Guichi waved his hand and said, "Hurry up, what happened to the bridge?" Hurry up and drop! ”

A trace of sorrow flowed in the eyes of the Japanese lieutenant and said: "A tank and chariot unit of the Chinese people attacked the bridge last night, and the military police in the city resisted desperately, and finally the whole army was wiped out due to being outnumbered, and an infantry brigade stationed on the bridge was also defeated by the Chinese people.

After the city was broken, the people of China arrested all the people of Yamato in the city on the pretext of capturing the defeated soldiers, and killed all of them outside the city!

None of the more than 20,000 people of Yamato were spared, and all of them were killed! "In the end, the Japanese lieutenant was already a little stumped.

"Damn, damn China, bastard, it's madness!" Nakamura Tanichi and the others turned pale and gritted their teeth and scolded angrily.

"Also~" The Japanese lieutenant said again: "After the people of China slaughtered the whole city, they set fire to the city. Now the bridge is in ruins. ”

"Yaga Tooth Road! Big drops are abominable! Nakamura Guichi gritted his teeth and cursed.

"Where are the enemy troops now?" Chief of Staff Yogo Momoga asked more calmly.

"Went south along the East Coast." The Japanese lieutenant replied.

Hyaka Yungo took the lead and turned around and walked to the map, looked at the map, and immediately jumped up and shouted, "It's not good, the next target of the Shina people is likely to be Nakatsu!" ”

"Nani?" Nakamura Tanichi and Igo Masachi hurriedly walked over.

Hyaka Yungo pointed to the map and said: "Your Excellency, the two division commanders, please see, this is the Xingqiao, which is going south along the east coast, and Zhongjin, which is not 100 kilometers away, will inevitably become the next target of this group of enemy troops." ”

"What are you doing here?" Igo asked in a cold tone.

Hyaka Yungo gasped and said, "The purpose of this group of enemy forces is very clear, which is to carry out a brutal and devastating three-light policy on the hinterland of our Kyushu Island and coastal cities, so as to delay and prevent the build-up of our Kyushu Island defenders.

This would provide a great response to their forces blocking the Guanmen Strait. ”

"Hmph, despicable and shameless Shina people. If they don't think about it, I will mobilize troops to rush to Zhongjin and kill them at all costs! Igo said angrily.

"Your Excellency General, don't be impulsive, at present, the tens of thousands of elite people in China have captured Kitakyushu Island, and blocked the Kanmon Strait, cutting off our communication with Honshu Island, and its sinister intention has been clearly revealed, that is, to cut off our communication with Honshu Island, and then concentrate absolutely superior forces. Capture Kyushu Island in one fell swoop! Baiga Yungo said: "That's the case, it must be like this, as I just said, they sent such a tank armored unit to carry out a sabotage attack along the east coast." It is to hold the Guanmen Strait and wait for the arrival of its follow-up main landing force!

Therefore, the two generals must remember not to act impulsively, we should focus on the overall situation! ”

"But Baihe-kun, are we just going to sit back and watch this group of enemy troops wreak havoc? How many innocent Imperial subjects will die under their butcher's knives?! Igo asked with an angry face.

"Baihe-kun. The commander of the Igo Division was right, now that we and the main forces of the 6th Division were gathered in the Fukuoka area, the garrison on the east coast was empty. If the enemy army is allowed to burn and loot wantonly, the consequences will be catastrophic! The commander of the 18th Division, Nakamura Tanichi, nodded approvingly and said to Momoga Yungo.

"Your Excellency, what you said is not unreasonable, but compared with the entire island of Kyushu, and even the entire Japanese Empire, the coastal cities on the east coast are insignificant.

However, in order to avoid the recurrence of the tragedy of the bridge, he suggested that the military send a telegram to the defenders of Nakatsu, Beppu and other parts of the Kunitung Peninsula to immediately adopt a policy of fortifying the walls and clearing the wilderness to hold the city, and at the same time set up more anti-tank fortifications outside the city and dig trenches to resist the attack of the tanks and chariots of the Shina people. Yogo Momoga insisted on his own opinion and analyzed.

"What does Baiga-kun mean that the entire island of Kyushu will be captured by the Shina people? Isn't that a bit alarmist?

You know, this is on our territory, even if the Northeast Frontier Army of China is well-equipped and powerful, but our Imperial Japanese Army can arm and gather millions of troops at any time, and even fight the whole country to the end, I don't believe it, and millions of troops will still lose Kyushu Island? Igo snorted coldly.

"Your Excellency, the humiliation of the post is just a matter of facts, and now it is an indisputable fact that the navy is invincible to the Chinese people, and without the blockade of the navy and air force, the navy, land and air force of the Chinese people will land on the island in a steady stream. Let me ask, if the Guanmen Strait is blocked by the Chinese people, the communication between Kyushu Island and Honshu Island is cut off, and the millions of reinforcements on Honshu Island can only face each other across the sea, can we resist the attack of hundreds of thousands of elite naval and air forces of the Zhuchina people with our existing forces on Kyushu Island? Yungo Momoga asked rhetorically.

"Even if the Shina people were able to occupy the Kanmon Strait, Honshu Island would be able to bring reinforcements from the Seto Inland Sea to Kyushu Island." Igo is in line with the unconvinced way.

"What if the Shina blockade of the Seto Sea Road with submarine forces? Is it still possible for naval ships to bring reinforcements to Kyushu Island? Yungo Momoga asked rhetorically.

"This ......," Igo said, frowning in deep thought.

Nakamura Tanichi was silent for a while, and finally said to Igo Masako: "General Igo, Momoga-kun's analysis is reasonable, we should focus on the overall situation, concentrate our forces and prepare to cooperate with the reinforcements of Honshu Island, and before the follow-up landing echelon troops of the Shina people arrive, we should first recapture Kitakyushu Island, destroy the enemy's first landing force, and reopen the Kanmon Strait."

As for the enemy army that is ravaging the east coast, follow Baiga-kun's suggestion and remind the defenders everywhere to be on guard. ”

Igo Masaho nodded helplessly and said, "Just do what Nakamura-kun said, but in order to avoid greater losses, we still jointly send a power message to the base camp and ask them to send troops to attack as soon as possible!" ”

……………………

Busan, General Headquarters of the Northeast Frontier Army.

Jiang Baili hurriedly walked from the outside and said to Zhang Xinghan: "Commander, the naval fleet has reached less than twenty nautical miles from the port of Busan, and it will be back in the port in half an hour at most." ”

Zhang Xinghan, who frowned at the map and pondered, turned around when he heard the words and said, "Is the second batch of troops ready?" ”

"It's all ready, as soon as the fleet arrives, you can set off immediately." Jiang Baili replied.

Zhang Xinghan nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go to the port now, and I will personally lead the landing in the second echelon!" ”

Jiang Baili changed color when he heard this, and hurriedly persuaded: "Commander-in-chief, you are the commander-in-chief, is this a bit of a risk?" If there is a mistake, this crusade against Japan will be in danger of total failure! ”

Zhang Xinghan waved his hand to stop him and said, "Baili, I understand your worries, but this Eastern Expedition to Japan is very important, and I really don't feel at ease."

By personally commanding the operation, I will not only be able to understand and grasp the situation in a timely manner, respond to changes with the times, and make the fastest response, but will also greatly boost the fighting spirit of the officers and men of the three armed services in fighting to the death.

Therefore, this Busan will be handed over to you to command, and the follow-up troops will be dispatched by you. ”

Jiang Baili knew that once Zhang Xinghan made up his mind, it would be difficult to change, so he nodded helplessly and said: "Yes, the general seat must be very careful, and then he will lead the troops to the rendezvous!" ”

"Don't worry, after we capture Kyushu Island, we will have a drink with all the soldiers of the Eastern Crusade and celebrate our achievements!" Zhang Xinghan laughed and strode away with Guo Zhong and a group of guards.
