Xing Zhanqing led three tank regiments to kill like a whirlwind, and although the Japanese troops in the city had learned the news before they arrived, the bridge was only one or two hundred miles away from Zhongjin.
Xing Zhanqing led the tank troops to march at full speed along the highway, and it only took a few hours for them to appear outside Zhongjin City in a menacing manner.
The rapid appearance of the Northeast Frontier Army caught the devil soldiers and civilians in Zhongjin City off guard, and the short time of a few hours was not enough to build and excavate anti-tank trenches and other fortifications outside the city to block the advance of the tank corps.
Therefore, the devils outside the city did not wait for Xing Zhanqing's headquarters to open fire, and fled back to the city in a swarm. Pig. Pig. Island. Novel.
Just kidding, in the face of such a powerful tank and combat vehicle unit, isn't it looking for death to stay outside the city of Yima Pingchuan? The only way to return to the city is to defend the city wall, even if the city wall may not be able to withstand the artillery bombardment of the Chinese people.
"Captain Xing, this little devil is fast enough!" A regiment commander approached Xing Zhanqing and said, "How about it, do you want to launch an attack immediately and do the three-light policy again?" ”
Xing Zhanqing put down the binoculars in his hand and said in a deep voice: "The fuel and ammunition we carry are limited, if we really force the attack like this, at most after capturing this Zhongjin City, we will have to return to Kitakyushu Island to replenish ammunition."
Therefore, this battle cannot be fought like this, we must use limited ammunition and fuel to achieve maximum results. ”
"The biggest result? I would like to hear about it. The head of the regiment said curiously.
"It's very simple......" Xing Zhanqing waved his hand, signaled the orderly soldiers on the side to take the marching map, spread it on the ground and greeted the other two regiment commanders: "You see, this is Zhongjin, from now on more than 60 kilometers to the southeast is Usa, from Usa to the east is the Kunito Peninsula, where the Japanese have built large shipyards and other industrial facilities. ”
"Commander Xing means bypassing Nakatsu and Usa and directly attacking the Kunito Peninsula?" A regiment commander suddenly realized.
"That's right. The Kunisaki Peninsula is not only an important shipbuilding base for the Japanese, but also an important big city on the east coast, if this place is besieged, the Japanese army defending the city will inevitably ask for help from the Japanese army in the surrounding area, and we will ambush the Japanese army halfway, snipe the Japanese reinforcements by surprise, and destroy its vital forces to the greatest extent, and have achieved the purpose of expanding the results of the war! Xing Zhanqing said.
The two regiment leaders raised their heads lightly, Xing Zhanqing stood up after speaking, and said to the two: "Commander Wu." Commander Liu, the three of us will divide our troops, once the Kunito Peninsula is attacked, it is not only the defenders of Zhongjin who may come to help, but also Oita, and the devils in the Beppu area are also very likely to come out of the city to reinforce.
The three of you and me, I will lead the team to feint on the Kunito Peninsula, and you will set up ambushes on the road to the Kunitung Peninsula in Minggang and Usa respectively, and strive to annihilate them in one fell swoop! ”
"Understood!" Wu. The two heads of the regiment responded loudly at the same time.
……………………
On the north shore of the Guanmen Strait, groups of heavily armed Japanese troops came from the road race, and the long marching procession was like a long winding dragon.
Due to the indiscriminate bombing of roads, railways and important bridges along the coast of Honshu Island on the other side of the Kanmon Strait. Japanese reinforcements from all over Honshu were forced to get out of their cars and rush to the Shimonoseki area on foot.
The first to arrive was the Japanese army in the area of Ube and Sanyo, with a strength of about two infantry wings, and behind them there were more devils who were marching towards this side.
The southern shore of the Kanmon Strait. Positions of the Northeast Frontier Army.
Wang Tiehan, the commander-in-chief who personally led the guards and adjutants to the front line to inspect the front, was standing in the bunker and holding a telescope to peek at the situation on the other side.
Suddenly there was a rush of footsteps behind him, and a communications soldier suddenly stepped forward and saluted: "Report to the commander, the general headquarters is in a hurry." ”
Wang Tiehan turned around when he heard the words and said, "Oh? What instructions does the commander-in-chief have? ”
"The telegram was sent by the Chief of General Staff Chiang. The text said that the commander-in-chief had already boarded the ship with the second landing unit, and that he would personally direct us in the operation.
The senza instructed that we must resist the attack of the devils, and at the same time be ready to respond! "Signal Soldier said.
Wang Tiehan was slightly startled, nodded and waved his hand: "Okay, I know." ”
At this moment, an adjutant in charge of observation on the side suddenly said: "Commander, look, the devil on the opposite side has reinforcements coming again." ”
Wang Tiehan turned around, picked up the binoculars and looked at it, and said, "Inform all artillery regiments to immediately open fire on the Japanese army in Xiaguan and bombard the damn little devil." ”
"Yes!" The adjutant hurriedly stepped forward to answer, and immediately turned around and took the order to leave.
Not long after, the six 105 howitzers of the three howitzer regiments deployed on the southern shore of the Guanmen Strait roared one after another.
Shells dragged the scorching tail flames and piercing screams through the air in arcs and smashed towards the Japanese assembly area on the opposite bank.
An earth-shattering explosion soon sounded on the opposite bank, and clusters of scarlet flames rose to the ground, rolling up billowing black smoke into the sky.
Some are even tens of meters high.
The Japanese wing, which had just arrived, had not had time to rest when it was suddenly shelled, and in the monstrous flames and gunsmoke, all of them suddenly panicked wolves.
"Damn the China, where is our artillery, immediately return fire, return fire!" In the firelight, a Japanese soldier roared angrily.
"Wing Commander, our heavy artillery brigade is still on the way, but because the railway in the south-central part of Honshu Island was seriously damaged by the air raid of the Chinese fighters, the heavy artillery brigade is no longer here for the time being." A Japanese adjutant replied with a panicked look.
"Yaga, damn it! Then hurry up and send electricity to the navy and ask for the assistance of the navy's naval gun group! The devil Dazuo gritted his teeth and said: "We must not show weakness to those people on the other side, and we must resolutely fight back." ”
"Yes!" The adjutant hurriedly took the order, but before the shelling on the other side was over, he went back again.
"You Jingjun, how is it, have you contacted the navy?" The devil Dazuo, who was hiding under a bunker, looked up and asked urgently.
The devil adjutant shook his head with a sad face and said: "Wing Commander, I just called the Emergency Command to ask for naval reinforcements, but it said that the main force of the Navy has been transferred to the sea to participate in the blockade and blocking the landing of the main force of the Chinese Army.
However, the headquarters has promised that it will find a way to send a few warships and gunboats over to provide us with artillery reinforcements as much as possible! But I'm afraid I won't be able to arrive until tomorrow. ”
The devil Dazuo said disappointedly: "What about the aviation forces? And what about our aviation? ”
"The main forces of land-based and sea-based aviation have all been requisitioned and prepared to participate in the battle to block the main force of the China Army, and the remaining aviation forces will also have to shoulder the air defense tasks of Tokyo and other military powers. Adjutant said.
"Damn!" The devil Osa punched the sandbag fiercely, and the hateful Shina man actually forced the Imperial Army of the Great Japanese Empire to the point where they could only be beaten passively and were unable to fight back.
……………………
On the vast and boundless sea, the naval fleet of the Northeast Frontier Army is riding the wind and waves and rapidly advancing in the direction of Kyushu Island.
Hundreds of warships, large and small, are covered with red flags fluttering in the wind, and the sunlight is particularly dazzling.
Originally, when the Northeast Navy was first established, there were only three battleships with a displacement of about 30,000 tons and ten cruisers of 5,000 tons.
However, after two years of development, the Northeast Navy now has ten battleships, in addition to the original three, the later seven are medium and large battleships with a displacement of more than 50,000 tons.
One of them has a displacement of nearly 70,000 tons, and was named after Zhang Xinghan after Huo Quai, a national hero of the Han Dynasty.
This time, Zhang Xinghan chose Huo Qubing as his flagship and headquarters.
In addition to battleships, the number of cruisers has also increased from 10 to an astonishing more than 80, including more than 30 heavy cruisers with a displacement of more than 10,000 tons.
The rest of the destroyers, transport planes, and supply ships are no less than 300 large and small, and their performance is absolutely ahead of the ships of the current Navy's combined fleet.
The only regret is that due to time constraints, Zhang Xinghan did not have time to form his own aircraft carrier formation battle group, but this is a matter of time, and once Kyushu Island is conquered and its initial goal of containing Japan's national strength and military strength is achieved, the time is ripe for forming an aircraft carrier force.
Because this battle is bound to cause great losses to the Japanese Navy and Army, and these losses can be exchanged for weapons and equipment for Zhang Xinghan, and the killing value of warships and warships.
Although there are no aircraft carriers, Zhang Xinghan has a powerful underwater submarine force that is more flexible and cost-effective than aircraft carriers in naval warfare.
This advanced underwater dragon unit has made great achievements and has become a nightmare existence in the heart of the Japanese naval combined fleet.
In a large conference hall on the battleship Huo Quai, more than a dozen senior officers of the Northeast Frontier Army gathered.
They were discussing the military situation around the map and making deductions, while Zhang Xinghan, as the commander-in-chief, sat in the first place, smoking a cigarette and admiring the deductions of his subordinates.
Suddenly, a communications soldier wearing a navy uniform strode up to Zhang Xinghan and saluted: "Report to the headquarters, Jiaolong has called, and the enemy navy patrol and guard ship has been found seventy nautical miles ahead. ”
"Oh?" Zhang Xinghan stood up in vain when he heard this, and the senior officers also stopped discussing and deducing.
Zhang Xinghan looked at the map, took a puff of cigarette, and raised his head to the crowd: "Everyone, the war is imminent, the deduction is over, immediately return to their posts, go all out, defeat the Japanese invaders, and raise the prestige of our country at this time, I also hope that all my colleagues will cooperate sincerely and fight to the end for the country and the nation!" ”
"If you don't succeed, you will be benevolent! The lowly ranks have all been determined to sacrifice their lives to serve the country, and they will never back down, and they will fight to the death against the Japanese invaders! A group of officers led by Zhao Zhenfan and Wang Yizhe expressed their positions in unison. (To be continued......)
