Chapter 110: Lost?

Regarding the question of how many Yue soldiers were killed, Xia Jun actually had his own judgment, and according to the display on the exchange platform, he had more than 6 million points.

Killing a little devil at the same time can bring Xia Jun a thousand points, which is ten times the points obtained by the bandits.

That is, more than 6,000 Yue soldiers were killed, and the points are still rising, indicating that the seriously injured Yue soldiers are constantly dying.

However, Xia Jun does not say so much, and it is not good for the media to say that it is too accurate. After all, this was a bombing, and the East China Army had no way to count the results.

Anyway, this bombing is just a propaganda for their own bombers, and it is also a guide to how the two sides in the European theater can use bombers.

Outside the ......", the East China Air Force bombed Yuekou, killing 5,000 small Dongyang. ”

"Extra, extra, the East China Air Force was promoted to the strongest in the world, killing at least 5,000 Japanese ......"

In the seven autonomous provinces of East China, no matter which city you take, you can see newspaper sellers carrying a stack of urgently printed newspapers in their hands, and there are basically no newspaper boys on the streets, and they all go to school to attend classes, and they only go to the newspaper office to work during the summer vacation and weekend holidays.

When people heard the shouts of the newspaper sellers, they gathered around one after another, and those intellectuals paid for the number outside and took it to the street to look at it.

There is basically not much difference between the major newspapers, and the photos are all about the same.

"It's our Air Force!"

"What Air Force?"

"Our air force killed more than 5,000 pirates."

"That's great."

"Long live the Air Force......

In each school, the teachers are also holding the trumpet to read it to the students, and when the teachers finish reading, they will immediately burst into enthusiastic cheers.

"Students, the Air Force is a new branch of the world's armed forces, and when our East China Army established the Air Force, the chairman of the CPPCC National Committee said that our Chinese Army has lost, and our Chinese Navy has also lost, but our Air Force cannot lose again. Now, our Air Force has won, and we in China have the strongest Air Force in the world! ”

"The strongest, the strongest ......"

It was this initial victory of the Air Force that planted the dream of soaring in the hearts of many students, and when asked about their ideals, they replied that I want to be a pilot!

…… In Weifang, the command of the army was re-established, but this time Kamio Mitsutomi did not dare to build the headquarters in a conspicuous position, and under the threat of the air force of the Chinese people, even the command headquarters had no sense of security.

For this reason, Mitsutomi Kamio had the headquarters dug into the ground.

The Weifang army also quickly counted the casualties, but the result made Shenwei Mitsutomi pale, and the 30,000 troops stationed in Weifang were killed by the explosion, and more than 8,000 people were also injured, one-third of whom were seriously injured. The combat attrition amounted to a terrifying more than 12,000 people.

Basically, this bombing reduced their troops in Weifang by nearly half, and at the same time, 90 percent of the war materials they had hoarded in Weifang were also blown up, making it basically difficult to conduct operations.

At this moment, a telegram came from the army headquarters, sternly reprimanding Mitsutomi Kamio and asking him to report the specific losses immediately.

The reason why the army allowed the 16th Division led by Mitsumi Kamio to land in Shandong was mainly because Mitsutomi Kamio had been a spy who had been walking around Shandong for a long time, and Mitsutomi Kamio not only knew the terrain of Shandong, but also measured the depth of each port, so he knew Shandong very well.

I didn't think about it, and just a few days after landing, I was bombed by the East China Air Force.

After receiving the telegram, Mitsutomi Kamio obediently reported the loss, and suggested that the army headquarters continue to reinforce Shandong. and asked the War Department to let him retreat temporarily.

The War Department quickly replied to Mitsutomi Kamio, allowing him to retreat, and telling him that the War Department would mobilize the 1st Division to support the Shandong Battlefield.

…… On the afternoon of 7 October, Xia Jun signed the battle plan submitted by the General Staff.

The eight divisions of Zhucheng began to advance at two o'clock in the afternoon, and they received orders to blitzkrieg the First and Second Armies to attack Weifang.

After the bombing by the air force, the Yue army in Weifang basically lost its combat effectiveness, although the Asian army is different from the European army, the European army can no longer fight if it is reduced by 40%, because their logistics personnel are not responsible for the operation. However, the Asian army can even fight to the last man, but the losses of the Weifang army are so huge, and the combat effectiveness must continue to decline.

According to the operational plan of the General Staff, with the strength of two armies, after blitzkrieg Weifang, the Yue army that continued to attack the front line of Laizhou was solved, and the Yue army that landed in Shandong was dealt with as quickly as possible.

This is a local operation, although it has great advantages, but once the war lasts for a long time, the losses are also extremely tragic, and it can be ended as soon as possible.

Therefore, Xia Jun approved the plan.

There is no logistical problem, and when the East China Autonomous Government declared war with the Yue army, it had already mobilized 15,000 trucks, and the trucks of many enterprises were transferred, which caused a certain amount of interference in the commerce of the seven provinces of East China's autonomous province.

Otherwise, a large number of trucks will soon be transported in Ningde, Xiamen, Fuzhou, Hangzhou, Ningbo and other ports, and the total number of these trucks will reach 50,000.

A truck with a load capacity of ten tons only costs 200 points, Xia Jun is now a big money, and the points in his hands have accumulated to a terrifying level of twenty-six, and 50,000 trucks only cost 10 million points, which is a drop in the bucket.

At the outbreak of the First World War, the railway network in the seven autonomous provinces of East China was not yet perfect, and the demand for trucks increased greatly, and the car factories were now able to produce only 3,000 trucks a month.

War materials were first transported by rail to Lianyungang Station, and then by truck from Lianyungang Station to the front. The station in Lianyungang is the end of the Longhai Railway, which is already connected to the East China Railway network at this time.

15,000 trucks can carry 150,000 tons of combat materials at a time, and transporting these materials to various combat units is a matter for the army's supply convoy, which has more than 8,000 trucks.

In terms of combat materials, Xia Jun has accumulated more than n bullets, and the exchange platform will reach 50 million cheap bullets every month, and this time Xia Jun exchanged 500 million rounds of ammunition in one go, only spending 5 million points. There was not much inventory of artillery shells and aerial bombs, and Xia Jun spent 50 million points to exchange for a large number of artillery shells and aerial bombs.

All of these war materials were brought in from the ports and then transported to Lianyungang from the port's railway network. Because of the abundant supply and transportation capacity, logistics even sent a large number of canned fruits to the front line.

It was the evening of September 7.

After a three-hour march, the First Army and the Second Army annihilated more than a dozen small armies along the way, and penetrated into Weifang like lightning. Immediately afterwards, an offensive formation was formed, and the 07 Brigade of the howitzer division first launched an artillery bombardment on Weifang.

Then the First Army launched an attack, but they easily captured the position of the Yue army, and it was then that they realized that the main force of the Yue army had retreated.

The command immediately gave the order to pursue.

…… Zhucheng Command!

"Report to the chairman, the army has retreated." Liu Wenhong hurriedly handed over the information to Xia Jun, who frowned and said, "Retreated?" ”

"Yes, they probably want to retreat to the front line of Laizhou to join up with the Yue army there." Liu Wenhong guessed.

"Hmmm! It is very likely that this is the case, first of all, Laizhou has mountains, and the terrain is more suitable for defense, and in addition, Laizhou is close to the sea, so the army can get artillery support from the navy. Chen Xuanyu pointed to the map and said.

Xia Jun looked at the map for a while, his eyes lit up, and said, "This is an opportunity to severely damage the Navy!" Immediately ordered the submarine units of Dalian and Lianyungang to go to Jiaozhou Bay to look for the warships, not to be alarmed, and to wait for the attack order at any time. ”

"Yes."

"Let the First Army and the Second Army bite Weifang and retreat the army as quickly as possible, and destroy it. Immediately after advancing to the town of Shahe, a temporary airfield was built. ”

"Yes."

"Let the bomber units hang up torpedoes and heavy aerial bombs, ready to move at any time."

The crowd quickly understood the intention of the chairman, who obviously wanted to use bombers and submarines to carry out an overwhelming attack on the Chinese army and navy.

…… On a starry night, the earth is hazy, revealing a hint of mystery.

The 1st and 2nd armies were ordered by the command to immediately pursue forward along the railway line. The railway station in Weifang had been blown up, and the army was retreating on foot.

Soon the Yue army was bitten by the first and second armies.

Kamio Mitsutomi retreated all the way with more than 24,000 troops, and the scouts soon discovered the East China Army chasing behind.

From time to time, planes flew in the sky, and after dropping flares, they continued to hover in the sky and continue to drop flares wherever they could.

The night was not pitch black, and with the help of the starlight, the situation could still be faintly seen, but it was not real, and soon the reconnaissance plane in the sky found the retreating army.

But the night was night after all, and as the army blew up the heavy equipment and discarded the wounded, they soon disappeared into the wilderness.

Kamio Mitsutomi was very cunning, and he realized that even if he marched lightly, it was unlikely that he would be able to outrun the East China Army, so he no longer retreated to the east, but fled to the southeast.

The First and Second Armies lost their target, and only about 4,000 wounded Japanese soldiers were found in the field, so they had to report to the command for instructions on their next move.

...... "Chased?" Xia Jun was woken up in the middle of the night and heard a news that made him very depressed, Xiao Yue could really run, and he ran away without fighting.

Kamio Mitsutomi naturally had to run, since he realized that they did not have the advantage of the air force, and in the case of inferior troops, running was the only way, so that at least he could preserve his strength.

Xia Jun adjusted his mentality and continued to ask, "Where did you chase it?" ”

"Chairman, it's in the Changyi area."

"Changyi." Xia Jun looked at the map, Liu Wenhong took out a compass, drew a circle on the map, and said: "Centered on the location where the army blew up heavy equipment, assuming that the army is fleeing at a speed of 100 kilometers per day, then they will not be able to run this circle tomorrow." ”
