CHAPTER XXVIII
The next day, September 19, at around 02:45 a.m.
Under the orders of the division commander, Lieutenant General Jiro Tamon, the 2nd Division, which had gathered in a hurry, divided the headquarters of the 3rd Brigade as the vanguard reinforcements, and the rest of the troops rested a little before setting off two hours later.
"Hurry up." The soldiers of the 3rd Brigade, who were marching on foot, accelerated their advance with the constant encouragement of officers at all levels. "Be sure to arrive at the intended location as soon as possible to meet the rest of His Excellency Senren. I ordered the 29th Infantry Operations Wing to open the way for our brigade as a vanguard search force in front and report back to me as soon as there was a situation! Major General Hasebe, the commander of the 3rd Infantry Brigade on his horse, glanced at the old man who was marching, and the soldiers of the team turned his head and said to the staff officer who was also riding a horse beside him. Hayi, Your Excellency Brigade Commander. I'm going down to inform them! As a staff officer of the brigade, after speaking, he turned his horse's head and ran in the direction of the 29th Wing......
"Let's take the lead, got it. Tell the brigade commander that the 29th Wing will join forces with General Mori and his troops to completely crush the conspiracy of the despicable people who are trying to annihilate the Imperial Army. Yukihiro Hirata said in high spirits.
"Yo Xi, he deserves to be a good boy of the empire. I will report your bold words to His Excellency the Brigade Commander, so don't take care of yourself. The staff officer said very appreciatively, and after saluting, he drove the war horse back to the brigade commander's side.
Seeing the figure in the distance, Yukihiro Hirata ordered his 29th Wing to advance towards the assembly site agreed with the Mantetsu garrison earlier.
"So that's the case, the little devil is to rescue the thousands of devils we have eliminated. Ordered the troops who had previously exterminated the devils of Sen Lian to lay in ambush on the path that this enemy must pass. Sneering, Tang Lina gave another order.
Around 03:47 a.m., the sky was a little brighter. A 5,000-strong Japanese wing marched forward in the dark with torches, and countless footsteps sounded on the ground. Suddenly, there was a loud "boom", and at this time, a 280-mm shell flew from somewhere, and just fell on the side of the team led by the 29th Wing of the 3rd Brigade of the 2nd Division of the Kwantung Army, which was supporting the garrison of the Mori Company.
"Bagaya Road." How embarrassed was Yukihiro Hirata, who had never been baptized by more than 200 mm guns, at this time, he was very angry and gritted his teeth, listening to the screaming sound of heavy shells falling overhead, and his forehead was bruised.
"Boom" another 280-mm shell flew. The Yamato samurai, who had not yet recovered from the chaos, were worse than a quail. Besides, the 5,000-strong army looks big, but there are a lot of cats in it. You must know that the general brigade and regiment troops are at the wing level of 3,800 people, but they have 1,200 more people, which is a full number of devil brigades. At this time, you can see at a glance that the extra 1,200 people who have been temporarily conscripted are no worse than anyone else's work in oiling the soles of their feet, and you have to ask why. As a matter of fact, quite a few of these extra people were temporarily recruited from among the Japanese living in the northeast, and there were also many soldiers who had just retired from the army and rejoined the soldiers, who had already turned the 3,800-strong wing into almost one-third more brigades in the current unit.
"Bastard, Yagayalu. How can our enemy have heavy artillery and cannons of more than 200 mm caliber, what the hell does Tegaoke do to eat!! Why was there no news before!! Yukihiro Hirata, who was already bruised, grabbed a captain and roared.
An 85-millimeter shell of "Tom ......" blew up several unlucky people next to this big guy on the head of Cao, who was trying to control the continuation of the troops, not far from Dazuo's side, and his body turned into blurred fragments that fell everywhere.
These fellows drawn from the expatriates made the already dissatisfied Dazuo very angry, and he found that after one or two inexplicable shellings, he herded the conscripts who had recruited them to the collective sheep of the conscripts who had called them up.
"This is ......" Yukihiro Hirata gasped when he saw these 10 or so big guys, he finally understood what kind of opponents he was facing now.
"Bastard, the artillery brigade quickly uses the Type 92 infantry cannon to get rid of them." But to understand clearly, now in the early 30s of the 20th century, the world is not clear about the future development of tanks, not to mention the small island country of Japan, and even China itself does not understand how to play with those iron lumps. The general application is almost nothing as an indestructible mobile turret, and occasionally a cameo as a weapon for attacking fortifications, but it does not form a huge tank armor cluster. The self-righteous Yukihiro Hirata was conceited, he had a certain understanding of tank combat vehicles, and took it for granted that the big man opposite was nothing more than a thin skin stuffing made out of rivets by the Shina man he despised (how to know that it was Chinese, just look at the Chinese of the tank. He planned to use the Type 92 infantry artillery with a measly caliber of only 70 mm to destroy these goods in his mind, and to boost the morale of all the soldiers who had just been shelled.
"The goal is a large coffin with a thin skin. 発砲する! (Directly in front of the target, the thin-skinned coffin of the Chinese.) Fire! "Under the command of several squadron officers in the artillery brigade, eight 70-mm guns were trained under his command to complete the adjustment of the various artillery pieces, and then an order was given. The 70-mm high-explosive armor-piercing projectile was propelled by the powerful gunpowder propulsion power and flew directly towards the target.
After the "boom" eight shells hit the hammer tank that was walking in the front at the same time, several clouds of black smoke rose from the part where the hammer tank was hit, and the devils found that there was no longer the sound of the engine, and the hammer tank stopped in place, not moving, as if it had really been destroyed.
"Yo Xi, it's hit, and you continue to work hard to kill those big coffins." Seeing the big monster climb down, Yukihiro Hirata and Moriren and others also had a German-style mustache, and this time he was so happy that his beard kept shaking.
"Haiyi, we will continue to destroy these hateful thin-skinned coffins of China!" Seeing that one was killed the first time, it did not make the squadron officers of the artillery brigade happy, so they replied with courage for themselves.
"Tom" little devil is not only the infantry's marksmanship and bayonet fighting, but also the artillery skills are very accurate, which has to be admired. One after another, the medium tanks that followed were smoking, and one after another ceased to function.
"Aha, how could the Great Japanese Empire be defeated in the hands of the ignorant, savage, and backward Chinese." As Yukihiro Hirata, the little devil, laughed, and the other devil soldiers burst out laughing, as if they were destroying something insignificant, and even the levies who were messing around just now joined the ranks en masse.
"Hmph, there are times when you laugh, but then you won't laugh." This image was transmitted to the monitor in its entirety, and Tang Lina felt disdain for the ghost soldiers in the monitor.
"Warriors of the Empire, forward." Yukihiro Hirata, who was still unsatisfied, swung forward with a three-year-style officer's knife with its sheath drawn.
"Your lords use our singing to let these ignorant people know that the Great Japanese Empire is invincible!!" As a staff officer next to Captain Yukihiro Hirata, he yelled at all the devil soldiers around him.
"Let's use the Camping Song!"
"Ready to sing: Won and brave
Oath door road hometown (く) out
Merit (merit) doesn't make you die, right?
ラツパ marches and hears it every time
The eyelids (eyelids) emerge with waves of flags
The soil and plants are also burned with fire
Endless wilderness (こうや) step on
Advancing Himaru steel helmet
The horse's mane was stroked while petting
Tomorrow's life (life) (who) who knows
Bullets (occasionally) also canned bayonets (crossroads うけん) also
And slow (don't do it yet) camping grass pillow (grass. Although)
The father who dreamed came out
Dead (Shenyang) things also (go) and encouraged
It's the enemy's sky.
Want to come to today's battle (just)
Zhu (New Year) is slightly dyed.
Laugh at my dead comrades
Long live His Majesty the Emperor
Voices left behind
Forgot them?
The body of war (war) is historical
The consciousness of throwing things.
The bugs of my grass are chirping
If it's for the peace of the East
What life cherishes しから."
"His Majesty the Emperor 萬歳 (ばんざい)と" was sung, and the devils chanted the emperor of the devils again.
"Humph! Arrogant. Let you live a little longer. Tang Lina sneered when she heard this singing.
