Chapter 52: The Great War of Liaoyuan

Putting on the mask of hypocrisy, Japan became even more unscrupulous. In their opinion www.biquge.info, Jilin and Heilongjiang are already determined to win. Now, as long as the railway line from Zhengjiatun to Longjiang can be broken, the entire northeast will be in the pocket of the Kwantung Army. The 10th and 14th Divisions were mobilized, and they were also equipped with flying groups to accompany the operation.

"Hirose-kun, you took over the 10th Division in my hands, and this time I hope you can inherit the glory of the 10th Division. Don't lose the face of the model division, I'm waiting for your good news," Honjo told the current commander of the 10th Division, Hirose Shousuke, before leaving.

"Please rest assured, Your Excellency, that our 10th Division will be victorious in this operation."

Liao Yuan, Commander Tang Yulin? At that time, instead of fleeing from the wind as in history, he urged the officers and soldiers to build fortifications and stabilize their positions every day.

Artillery camp, artillery brigade commander Geng Jizhou inspected the artillery position, the M-30 artillery transported from Taonan made him very satisfied, he said to his subordinates, "We have such a good artillery, we have to beat these little devils, we ran once, but let the people in the northeast poke the backbone, this time the auxiliary commander is willing to stick to the northeast, we also have to be like a little, play the majesty of our northeast army for people to see, but let people look down." ”

"But brigade commander, I heard that these Japanese are very powerful, can we beat them?" A new soldier asked.

"What kind of bastard did you kid say, if you are afraid of the Japanese, don't eat this food, I don't accept those pus-filled soft eggs here."

When Geng Jizhou said this, the recruit also blushed. "Who said I'm scared, I'm just asking, everyone is two shoulders and one head, I can be afraid of the Japanese, brigade commander, you will look at it when the time comes, I promise that you will fight that."

"As far as you kid is clever, the range of our cannon is much longer than that of the Japanese howitzers, and the Japanese cannon can't be transported here, you have to seize the opportunity to beat the Japanese for me, there are not many things to beat people without being beaten, you have to seize the opportunity." Geng Jizhou also made a joke.

As night fell, the 10th and 14th divisions of the Japanese army gathered in the area of Maojiadian and prepared to launch an attack on Liaoyuan.

"Matsuki-kun, let's take the lead in this attack." Hirose Shousuke said to the commander of the 14th Division, Naoaki Matsuki.

"Since Hirose-kun said so, I'm naturally an adult beauty, but if there's any trouble, Hirose-kun just ask." Matsuki Naoliang also knew that as the last general of the Nagagawa Domain, he was not very welcome, if he hadn't followed the "God of War" Nogi Noshinori?, I'm afraid he wouldn't even be able to mix with the general, and Matsuki Naoliang didn't want to offend Hirose.

After a night's rest, when the sky was just dawning, the Japanese army launched an attack, this time is the most relaxed moment, and the Japanese army chose this time to launch an attack in order to catch the Northeast Army off guard.

But Tang Yulin is also an old man, cut down the trees in front of the position in advance, cleared the firing range, and planted mines to hinder the attack, and the Japanese army did not expect that the Northeast Army would really defend so carefully this time, and the head of the 10th Infantry Wing Commander Chichai Yaezo was also meritorious and directly ordered the troops to charge, but they stepped on the mines one after another.

The explosion of the mine alarmed the Northeast Army stationed there, and Feng Zhanhai immediately reacted and shouted loudly, "Fast forward to the position, the enemy is attacking." Saying that, he will lead the 682nd Regiment under his command into the position. A blockade was launched against the Japanese troops.

Tang Yulin in the division headquarters learned the news and immediately ordered Geng Jizhou to launch an artillery bombardment on the Japanese army, delay the Japanese attack, and win time for the follow-up troops to enter the position.

"Boom, boom." 122-millimeter shells whizzed into the middle of the Japanese ranks, and the heavy shells caused a violent explosion that made the Japanese soldiers wail all over the field.

However, the 10th Division was a well-trained Division A after all, and the veterans also reacted after the first round of shelling, slowing down the speed of the attack, and when the shells fell, they did not lie directly on the ground like recruits, but supported the ground with their elbows to prevent shock damage to their internal organs.

After all, the artillery bombardment bought precious time for the Northeast Army, and the combat troops entered the positions one after another, launching a fierce attack on the Japanese army, and one machine gun position after another formed a dense fire network, "Wing Commander, we already have a brigade of jade shattered." Akashiba Yaezo's eyes were red when he received the report, "Yaga, how dare these people resist the Imperial Japanese Army, for the sake of His Majesty the Emperor, charge me, inform the division commander to me, and say that we ask for tactical guidance." ”

"What, a brigade has already been killed, how did this bastard command Akashiba Yaezo." Hirose Shousuke was very dissatisfied when he heard the news, and he had killed a brigade in such a short time, which was a slap in the face for him who boasted about Haikou in front of Honjo Shigeru. "Go tell Haruhi Taniguchi? Let him destroy the artillery of the Chinese people. ”

"Oh, the artillery of the China, I know, this is to destroy them." Haruji Taniguchi, who received orders from Hirose Shousuke, directly agreed, in his heart, the artillery of the Shina people was vulnerable and destroyed the arsenal and inventory in Mukden, and this Shina unit was only a few large-caliber mortars and small-caliber howitzers, and the Taisho four-year 150mm field howitzers of his own army were enough to crush them.

"What, their artillery is out of our range, how is this possible." Hearing the report of the people below, Haruharu Taniguchi couldn't believe it. He had no choice but to report to Hirose Shousuke again.

"You said that the guns of the Shina have a longer range than ours, Taniguchi-kun, I don't have the heart to joke about this, you are armed with 150mm heavy guns." Hirose Shousuke also looked incredible.

"Your Excellency, Division Commander, although I have a hard time believing it, it is a fact."

"Okay, then you go and shell the defensive positions of the Northeast Army, and I will let the troops attack with you."

"Hey."

Inoshito is a Mito man, he has been in the army for many years at this time is already a squadron leader, in his impression that the Chinese army is vulnerable, he originally thought that this battle would be as easy as before, as long as his troops attacked, the Chinese army would retreat, and there was no courage to fight with him. But the truth was not what he expected.

"Inoshita-kun, can we really defeat these Chinese? Doesn't it mean that these Chinese are vulnerable? The townsman next to him asked.

"It's okay this time, we're going to win. You follow me, don't rush too far ahead. "The well told this fellow of his own.

"Onboard, onboard." Receiving the order to attack, the well led the troops to charge. The land in front of him was covered with traces of gunsmoke, huge artillery pits and piles of corpses, which made him a little flustered, will it really be so smooth this time, the machine guns roaring on the Northeast Army position in the distance, as if they were sawmills, and the soldiers in front of him fell in rows like wood.
