Mt. Zao, twin peaks. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

A waterfall cascades down and crashes against the rocks below, splashing in all directions.

But the water was red, stained with blood.

The cannon roared, and the surrounding woods were even more dense with gunfire, and bullets flew by, where the Chinese and Japanese armies were fighting.

It was already approaching sunset, and Mt. Zao, surrounded by the 150,000-day army, was still in the hands of the 16th town of the Chinese Imperial Army.

In the Japanese headquarters, General Lunma was so angry that his beard was cocked, and he was scolding at his men, spitting stars flying wildly.

"You bunch of shit! Rubbish! Rubbish! ”

"It's been three days of fighting, and you haven't even destroyed the enemy (the sixteenth town), your 150,000 people are not as good as 150,000 pigs, so many pigs have rushed up!"

After three days of fierce attack, the Japanese army launched a number of large-scale attacks, but unfortunately they were all repelled by the officers and soldiers of the 16th town of the Chinese Imperial Army, leaving tens of thousands of corpses of Japanese soldiers all over the mountains, and the blood flowed like a river.

"Your Excellency, give us another chance! We promise to rush up! ”

A Japanese soldier stood up and said.

Lunma was about to speak, when the phone rang, and a communications staff officer answered the phone and reported quickly.

"Report to the general, Sendai is lost!"

"Nani?"

Lunma was stunned for a moment, and then said angrily: "Bastard, Sendai has two divisions to defend, and it was lost so quickly!" What a bunch of rubbish! ”

"General, the Chinese Imperial Marines have landed on the Sendai line, and Jiro Ono's troops have been forced to evacuate and are retreating to Kawasaki."

Lenma thought for a while and said, "Call back and tell Ono Jiro that you must stick to Kawasaki for four hours, and if you can't do it, you will apologize!" ”

After giving the order, Lunma turned to the subordinates in front of him and said, "Give you four hours, if you can't take Mt. Zao, I will destroy you all!" ”

"Hello! Be sure to complete the mission! ”

This is the last chance, these Japanese officers know very well that the Chinese Imperial Army in the direction of Sendai has already been killed, and it is still unknown whether the Kawasaki line can defend for four hours, so there is not much time left for them.

If you can't take Mt. Zao, everyone will be finished.

Knock knock!

Knock knock!

The Japanese artillery roared again, and countless shells exploded on Mt. Zao, stirring up sand and dust in the sky, swallowing the entire Mt. Zao in the blink of an eye.

The smoke and dust obscured the sky and the sun, and it was impossible to see the situation on Mt. Zao clearly, so the Japanese artillery fire had to stop for an hour after a round of fire, waiting for the smoke and dust on Mt. Zao to dissipate.

During this time, various Japanese forces organized an offensive and launched an attack on the positions of the Chinese Imperial Army on Mt. Zao.

After three days of fierce fighting, the position of the Chinese Imperial Army at the foot of Mt. Zao had already been lost, and the officers and soldiers of the 16th Town had retreated to the mountain, relying on the favorable terrain of Mt. Zao, condescending to continue to block the Japanese attack.

Although the Japanese artillery fire was fierce, it unfortunately did not pose much threat to the dangerous terrain of Mt. Zao.

During the Japanese shelling, the Chinese Imperial Army would choose to take refuge in the mountain tunnels, and then re-enter the position after the Japanese shelling was over. Therefore, despite the ferocity of Japanese artillery, it could not inflict a large number of casualties on the Chinese Imperial Army.

On the other hand, the Japanese army launched an attack from the bottom of the mountain, and the soldiers of the Chinese Imperial Army on the mountain also had mortars and other infantry support firepower, which could be fired directly from the trench and fall directly into the mountain, and it was difficult for the Japanese army to hide, and there were many Japanese soldiers killed and wounded by mortar shells.

The individual automatic weapons, light machine guns, and heavy machine guns of the soldiers of the Chinese Imperial Army only needed to set up checkpoints above the passes and important mountain roads, and five or six soldiers could block the attack of a large group of Japanese troops.

Seeing that the Japanese army had only four hours left, Lunma was also anxious, so he agreed to the plan proposed by his generals to set fire to the mountain.

The Japanese army found a large amount of gasoline and lit it at the bottom of the mountain, and the fire burned rapidly, soon igniting the surrounding woods.

The fire was blazing, and black smoke was billowing out.

The wind fueled the fire, and the entire Zao Mountain was covered with a sea of fire, and the flames soared into the sky.

Under the Shuanglian Peak, Li Yuanhong, the commander of the Sixteen Towns Division, had not closed his eyes for three consecutive days, with a pair of panda eyes, staring at every tactical node on the map, carefully calculating the strength and firepower of the enemy and us.

"Report to the division commander, little Japan has set fire to the mountain!"

Li Yuanhong said: "Those who should come will always come, which shows that Little Japan has no choice!" The soldiers of all units were ordered to immediately prepare masks, avoid inhaling toxic fumes as much as possible, and prepare more water sources in case of emergency. At the same time, the engineer units were ordered to quickly dig the barrier, and at the same time the flamethrowers were ready to be prepared to breathe fire in the opposite direction when the fire approached our position, to stop the flames from approaching. ”

Masks are one of the standard armor worn by the soldiers of the Chinese Imperial Army, although there is no history of poison gas warfare in this era, but as a defensive side on the battlefield, it is often necessary to encounter strong poisonous smoke, so it has become a common practice to be equipped with masks.

As for the flamethrower, it was the standard equipment of the squad platoon of the Chinese Imperial Army, and at first it used a flamethrower to attack the enemy personnel in the bunker and cave, but in defensive operations, once the enemy set fire to attack, the flamethrower could use a flamethrower to extinguish the fire.

Many people may not understand that the flamethrower is a flame, how can it be possible to extinguish the fire?

In fact, the scientific explanation is that there are two conditions for a flame to burn, one is the temperature ignition point, and the other is oxygen.

In view of these two characteristics of the flame, two ways to extinguish the fire are adopted, and the low temperature fire extinguishing is generally not effective, because once the fire is burned, it is difficult to use the temperature to extinguish the fire. Then the second is to destroy the oxygen, so as to achieve the fire extinguishing.

Irrigating with water and covering with soil and sand are both ways to isolate oxygen to extinguish fires.

But many people can't imagine that its practical flamethrower can also extinguish fires.

The principle is very simple, when the opposite fire burns, the flamethrower of the Chinese Imperial Army quickly breathes fire on the opposite fire, because the flame burns will consume a lot of oxygen, the flamethrower spews out fire oil, the combustion is more violent, the speed of oxygen consumption is extremely fast, and all the oxygen in the vicinity can be evacuated in just a few seconds.

In this way, when the Pyro sprays flames into the opposite fire, it will consume the oxygen around the opposite fire in advance, so that the opposite fire will be quickly extinguished to achieve the effect of extinguishing the fire.

The Japanese army worked hard to set a fire, thinking that they could burn the Chinese Imperial Army on the mountain, and even if they couldn't burn to death, they would be smoked half to death.

It's a pity that they never expected that the Chinese Imperial Army would have various means to prevent the Japanese army's fire attack, which led to the final failure of the Japanese army's fire attack plan.

The fire on Mt. Zao burned for three hours, and the whole mountain burned red, and the sky was covered with black clouds, and it was pitch black, as if the sky had been burned down into a big hole.

Lunma looked at Mt. Zao very pleasantly, in his opinion, such a big fire should be able to burn all the 16th towns of the Chinese Imperial Army on the mountain.

However, this was not the result he wanted, and he hoped to eliminate this Imperial Chinese army from the front, only then could he show that the Japanese army he led was capable of defeating the Imperial Chinese Army, which was the hope of saving the Empire of Japan.

It's a pity that it backfired, and in the end he could only adopt this kind of tactics that hurt the peace.

"There's one hour left, ready to attack!"

Lunma planned to use the last hour to launch another general attack on Mt. Zao, believing that the Imperial Chinese Army was too cunning, and that such a raging fire might not be able to burn them all to death, and it was possible that some of the Imperial Chinese Army had escaped by hiding in tunnels, and even on the top of Mt. Zao, there were some areas covered with snow, and it was possible to avoid the attack of flames and poisonous smoke.

However, just as the Japanese were about to deliver the final blow, the phone rang again from the Lenma command.

"Report, Your Excellency General, Kawasaki is lost!"

"Nani? Jiro Ono, this bastard, I told him to hold on for four hours, but he only lasted three hours and was defeated! Let him hold on, even if it is for another half an hour! ”

Lunma felt that as long as he was given another half hour, he could send troops to rush up to Mt. Zao to see if the Chinese Imperial Army above was still alive. Even if there are still living soldiers of the Chinese Imperial Army, it is estimated that the number will not be too many, and it is expected that they can be eliminated within half an hour.

In just half an hour, Lunma can win big.

However, the correspondent's words next sent Lunma into a state of panic.

"Report to Your Excellency General, this is Ono Jiro's last telegram, now he has been killed, and his troops have been completely wiped out by the 77th Town of the Chinese Imperial Army!"

"Report, Your Excellency General, something is wrong, a fast tank unit of the Chinese Imperial Army has been found in the southeast, which is coming in the direction of our army. Their speed was very fast, all four-wheeled chariots and trucks, conservatively estimated at the strength of about a regiment, and it was expected to reach the forward positions of our army within half an hour. ”

Southeast?

Coming from Edo?

Lunma was taken aback, he thought that the reinforcements of the Chinese Imperial Army would only come from the Sendai Sea, but he did not expect that the Chinese Imperial Army in the direction of Edo was also dispatched, and it was the fastest mobile chariot unit, and it was surprising that it mysteriously passed through the areas of Kimiyama and Fukushima without being discovered.

If it had come not a chariot regiment of the Chinese Imperial Army, but a chariot division or dragoon regiment, or even a tank unit, then the hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops under Mt. Zao would have been in danger.

Lunma broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly ordered: "Immediately order the Sakata division to go to block the attack, and before the main force of our army is transferred, it must be given to me to defend the Elaine position." ”

"Order all troops to retreat immediately, quickly evacuate Zao Mountain from the line of Shiraishi Nanyang, and evacuate to Daishidake!"

Lunma immediately gave the order for the whole army to retreat, he had dealt with the Chinese Imperial Army for many years, and he knew too well the tactical thinking of the Chinese Imperial Army. The Imperial Chinese Army likes to play fast attack, and if the Imperial Chinese Army in front has captured Kawasaki, then the Imperial Chinese Army troops on both wings who are responsible for interspersing and detouring are probably already close to Mt. Zao.

Therefore, Lunma was very anxious, he was worried that there would be Chinese imperial troops in the direction of his flanks, and once that happened, hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops would probably be in danger, and there was a danger of being flanked or counter-surrounded.

"Your Excellency General, what about Mt. Zao?"

"Don't worry! Presumably they have been burned to ashes! Order the troops to retreat as soon as possible! ”

Lunma gave up the attack on Zao Mountain, and he felt that even if the 16th town of the Chinese Imperial Army on Zao Mountain was not burned to death, it was estimated that there would not be many people left. For the past three days, the Japanese army has been attacking and the Chinese Imperial Army has defended, so Lunma expected that even if there were still remnants of sixteen towns on the mountain, he would not dare to go down the mountain to attack the Japanese army.

I have to say that Lunma's prediction was still very accurate, and within ten minutes, he received a report from the Japanese scouts that traces of the Chinese Imperial Army had been found in the direction of Michi and Hayata.

These two directions are the east and west sides of Mt. Zao, and it is obvious that the Chinese Imperial Army coming from the direction of Fukushima is attacking Elaine head-on, and the other two are interspersed with detours from the left and right flanks, obviously coming towards the main force of the Japanese army besieging and destroying Mt. Zao.

Lenma successfully predicted this.

So he said triumphantly: "Hmph, the tactics that have not changed for 10,000 years have long been seen through by General Ben!" The Kajimoto Division was ordered to fortify on the front line of Mizuchi to ensure the safe passage of the main force of our army through Nanyang. Order Yamaki Ichiro to lead the 7th Brigade to fortify on the Soona line, and after the retreat of the main force of our army, there must be no mistake! ”

Half an hour later, battle reports came from the direction of Elaine, Michi, and Hayata, and all the fast tank units of the Chinese Imperial Army were intercepted by the Japanese divisions, and the Chinese Imperial Army attacked fiercely, trying to break through the Japanese defense line but failed.

"Hahaha! The Chinese Imperial Army is nothing more than this, this time General Ben eliminated the Chinese Imperial Army a whole system of standing 16th Town, in the future, General Ben will also eliminate the Chinese Imperial Expeditionary Dispatch Army that invaded the Great Japanese Empire, and then General Ben will be the hero of the Great Japanese Empire! Wowhaha! ”

Lunma laughed proudly, as if she saw her own future, not only to become a hero of Great Japan, but also to replace the Japanese Emperor, the harem beauties of the three thousand, and even lead the Imperial Japanese army to conquer the Chinese Empire and eventually unify the world.

Lunma was daydreaming, and Harazi was pouring out.

However, there is an old Chinese saying that happiness begets sorrow.

No, when Lenma was daydreaming, a sudden news made him completely confused.

"Report! Your Excellency, something is wrong! Nanyang is lost! ”

"Nani?"

Lunma opened her eyes, jumped to her feet from the saddle, and slammed her head into the carport.

"It can't be! Just now, Kajimoto's division also reported that it had repelled the Chinese Imperial Army that was trying to attack Mizu, and Nanyang was behind Mizu, did the Chinese Imperial Army put on its wings and flew over? ”

Lunma covered his head and shouted, his eyes leaking a fierce light, if it was fake news, he wouldn't mind killing someone.

"Your Excellency, General, I am not wrong! It is true that the Chinese Imperial Army attacking Miyu did not pass through the defense line of Kajimoto's division, but it was another Chinese Imperial Army that captured Nanyang, they came down from Mt. Zao, which should be the sixteenth town of the Chinese Imperial Army! ”

"Yaga!"

Lunma immediately slapped the herald and said angrily: "The Sixteenth Town has been wiped out by me on Zao Mountain, such a big fire is enough to burn them, how can they still have the ability to go down the mountain to attack Nanyang?" ”

The herald covered his hot face, wanting to cry without tears. Heart Dao Nyima cares about my birds, I'm just a messenger!

"Hello! Your Excellency the General is requested to go to Nanyang immediately, and when you get there, you will see with your own eyes the banner of the Chinese Imperial Army that has captured Nanyang! ”

"Get out!" Lunma raised his foot and kicked the herald soldiers, and ordered the special car to drive to Nanyang quickly.

When Lunma arrived outside Nanyang City, he looked up and saw that there was indeed a dragon flag floating on the head of the city, which was embroidered with the words "The Sixteenth Town of the Chinese Imperial Army".

Lunma did not doubt the flag, because he could see that the flag was not mass-produced by factory machines, but was embroidered by hand, it was a flag specially sewn by the harem concubines of the Emperor of the Chinese Empire for each of the Standing Towns of the Chinese Empire, and there was only this banner in the entire Sixteenth Town, which usually followed the actions of the Supreme Commander, because this kind of flag was unique, and once it was destroyed in battle, the number of the town guards would be revoked and removed forever, so every standing town of the Chinese Empire, The custodians of this flag are very careful.

Now this flag is fluttering on the drum tower of Nanyang City, which means that the division commander and division headquarters of the 16th town are there.

"Bakana! (Impossible)"

"Bakana!"

"Bakana!"

Poof......

Lunma roared in disbelief, and finally spurted out a mouthful of old blood in anger. (To be continued.) )
