Chapter 178 Limitations of Tornado Rocket Artillery
The current situation of the "retreat ......", even if the remaining thousands of people took their lives to fill it, it may be difficult to capture the positions of the Chinese army, and Tokutaro Shikai had to order a retreat, and the first attack ended in a crushing defeat. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
When the withdrawn Japanese troops made a simple count, they found that of the more than 7,300 people who launched the attack, there were less than 3,005, that is to say, more than half of the casualties in an attack before they could attack the positions of the Chinese army. Of course, such a large casualty is related to the lack of heavy weapons of the Japanese army, the fatigue of the soldiers, and the low morale of the soldiers, but the greater reason is that the equipment of the Chinese army has been increased too much.
After hearing the report, Yanagawa Heisuke was silent for a long time, and he didn't believe it when he heard the Central China Front Command say that the combat strength of the Chinese army had increased exponentially. This time, Wei Qidong and Tang Xinyi have not officially entered the war, and the Chinese army has inflicted such a heavy blow on him, which is enough to explain the problem.
"Organize death squads, climb to the enemy's position and blow up all the pillboxes, otherwise, if we delay a little longer, we will be even more dangerous." Yanagawa Heisuke said with a gloomy face.
Tokutaro Shikai had no choice but to lead the troops into battle again, but he was specially equipped with a death squad of nearly 500 people, specially responsible for bombing the pillbox, and the other attacking infantry was responsible for covering. Because the Japanese knew that without getting rid of those pillboxes, they would never be able to attack the positions of the Chinese army.
The members of the Japanese death squad all wore turbans on their heads, and at the center of their eyebrows were painted sun flags, with "Wuyun" and "Changjiu" written on both sides, and then shouted slogans to show their determination and prepared to attack.
But at this moment, with a buzzing sound, the Chinese Air Force plane appeared on the heads of the Japanese again, making them curse. During this time, they were bombed by the Chinese Air Force, and they finally experienced the helplessness of the Chinese army in the past.
However, the Chinese Air Force did not drop bombs, but only circled around the heads of the Japanese troops.
Just when the Japanese army was a little puzzled, there was a sudden "woo", and a shell came as quickly as a meteorite, and then smashed down on the Japanese position with a bang.
Like thunder, the power of this shell was more powerful than that of the Japanese artillery with a caliber of more than 300 millimeters, except for those who were directly killed at the center of the explosion, and those who were closer to the center of the explosion, many Japanese soldiers were even shocked by the huge impact force and bled out, and many people even fainted.
"Baga, it's Wei Qidong's giant cannon...... Concealed ...... "Tokutaro Garbage Well can see the power of this kind of shell, a large explode, but only one shot came just now, it should be Wei Qidong's test firing, and the next thing is to cover the strike."
The Japanese Sixth Division was a person who had suffered a big loss, so it naturally reacted quickly, and all units immediately hit concealed objects to evade.
However, the next blow was somewhat unexpected by Tokutaro Shisai, and it was still only one shot at a time, and there was no large-scale firepower coverage like last time.
Although he couldn't figure out why Wei Qidong didn't cover the blow in a large area, at least he was given a chance to breathe at the moment, and if Wei Qidong had a sudden direct covering shot just now, I don't know how big the casualties would be.
The Japanese are not stupid, after dodging the rocket hits for a while, they seem to have figured out a little rule, as long as they approach or hide in broken alleys and buildings, they will not be hit.
"I figured it out, the reason why Wei Qidong didn't shoot covered was not because he couldn't do it, but because he was afraid of accidentally injuring ordinary people." Tokutaro Shikai's eyes lit up and he muttered, because the area he was hiding in now was the residential area of the former Shanghai. Although many buildings have been damaged and many places have even fallen into ruins due to the fighting, some people who have nowhere to go have not left their broken homes.
Thinking about it, Tokutaro could only think of such a reason, otherwise, he really couldn't figure out why Wei Qidong and Tang Xinyi didn't bombard here.
Yes, Wei Qidong and Tang Xinyi are worried about this, and there is no way, on the one hand, he really doesn't want to accidentally injure the party, on the other hand, the system has punitive regulations, and there is a corresponding punishment for accidentally injuring or killing the person who has been injured (how to punish, introduced above).
"Wei Qidong, who was so cruel to my Japanese imperial people, is actually so kind to his own people,...... "Tokutaro Shikai sneered, from this point of view, Chinese are much worse than the Japanese, they Japanese are not only ruthless to everyone in the enemy country, but also to their own countrymen, they can also be ruthless. As long as they can get victory, they Japanese can do whatever it takes.
Tokutaro Shikai immediately reported what he had seen to Yanagawa Heisuke, and even suggested, "Should we arrest some Chinese people and open the way in front?" ”
The reason why such a vicious strategy was proposed was because of Tokutaro's fear of Wei Qidong on the one hand, and on the other hand, it was naturally because of his incomparable resentment.
Hearing this suggestion from Tokutaro Shimai, Yanagawa Heisuke, who is also not a good person, hesitated, not that he Yanagawa Heisuke suddenly became kind.
"Garbage well-kun, think about the "Tokyo Secret Treaty", and think about the fate of General Shouuchi." Yanagawa Heisuke said with Tokutaro Shikai a little weakly.
Actually, where did Tokutaro not know about "Tokyo Secret Treaty"? This secret agreement was made by Wei Qidong and Tang Xinyi who rushed to Japan, then destroyed several cities, and then forced them to sign it with the threat of destroying Tokyo. Since the First Sino-Japanese War, China and Japan have signed many treaties, but without exception, the Japanese forced China to sign them, taking advantage of them.
Only the "Tokyo Secret Treaty" was forced by the Chinese to sign it by the Japanese, and although the content of the treaty only made the Japanese obey some rules and did not let them cede land and pay compensation, it was also regarded by the Japanese as a humiliating treaty, because it was not signed willingly.
There are many contents of the treaty, most of which are excerpted from the provisions of the Treaty of Geneva, but there are also some clauses added by Wei Qidong and Tang Xinyi, one of which stipulates: The Japanese army shall not capture civilians or prisoners as shields.
If, as Tokutaro Shikai said, arrest some people to open the way in front, it is a violation of this article. Of course, since it is a treaty, it can be obeyed or ignored, and it depends on whether the party who ignores the treaty can bear the consequences of violating the treaty.
At that time, when Tang Xinyi signed the treaty with the Japanese on behalf of Wei Qidong, he explained at the end that once the Japanese army violated the terms of the treaty, Wei Qidong and Tang Xinyi would not notify the Japanese side separately, and would destroy the hometown of the initiator one after another, and then bomb Tokyo, including the imperial palace.
In the face of such a threat, the Japanese weighed the stakes and finally signed it, and even their emperor acquiesced. Such a treaty, when Wei Qidong and Tang Xinyi are still alive, whether to violate it, Yanagawa Heisuke, a madman, has to weigh it.
