Even if he knew that his comrades-in-arms were going to die, there was even a 1 in 1,000 or even 1 in 10,000 possibility, and he had to try it. www.biquge.info So he could only be silent, silently looking at the officers, cooks, and supply soldiers of the 17th Division, shouting against the current, and launching a heroic and fearless charge against the commanding heights under the feet of the Ming army.

"Hello? Feed! I am Major General Ozawa Kazuhiro, Your Excellency General Miyamoto Arihito, I am here to report to you for the last time......" grabbed the phone, and after getting through Miyamoto Arihito, standing in his own headquarters, Ozawa Kazuhiro solemnly said slowly on the other side of the phone.

Directly in front of his headquarters, the Japanese counterattack troops launched a charge on the commanding heights on their backs, but the Ming tanks on both wings bypassing the commanding heights had already reached the designated position, and the Ming soldiers on the commanding heights had already stood in their firing positions.

Bullets rained down like a storm, and the improvised patchwork of more than 500 Japanese troops who launched the attack were immediately suppressed, and the Ming army looked down from the high ground to attack, and soon occupied a piece of fortifications built by the Japanese army on the anticline.

Many of these fortifications were tunnel entrances to frontal defensive positions, and apart from a few simple bunkers of camouflage and openings, the Japanese had only a few rudimentary trenches that could be used for battle. Most of the remaining tunnels were short tunnels used by soldiers as barracks, and now only some of the personal belongings of the Japanese soldiers were still waiting for their owners.

"Hello? Ozawa-kun! Reinforcements are coming soon! As long as you hold on until the night, no matter the cost, we can turn the tide of the battle! On the other side of the phone, Miyamoto Yuhito didn't have a good idea, and the only thing he could do now was to draw a pie for Ozawa Kazuhiro on the front line to satisfy his hunger, so that he could drag out the battle as much as possible until the coming of night.

In conditions of low visibility at night, the Japanese could recapture the positions occupied by the Ming army with infantry death squads. Although the combat effectiveness of the Japanese infantry during the day was not too outstanding under the heavy firepower of the Ming Empire, Miyamoto Yuhito was still confident in the training level of his troops.

He wanted to launch a surprise attack at night and inflict heavy damage on the Ming Empire's river-crossing troops. It was the only viable battle plan he could get his hands on right now, and he couldn't help but try it with all his might. But all of this had to be based on one premise: the Japanese held the defensive positions on the front line and continued the stalemate until nightfall.

"Akita-kun has already rushed forward with the last of his troops, and if his counterattack fails, I will soon be occupied by the Ming army...... Your Excellency General Miyamoto, as the commander of the 17th Division, I have done my best, and the rest can only be entrusted to you, Your Excellency General......" Ozawa Kazuhiro's hand holding the telephone receiver trembled slightly, I don't know if it was because he was afraid of being nervous, or because he was too emotional.

On the other side of the phone, Miyamoto Yuren was obviously stunned for a moment when he heard what Ozawa Kazuhiro said, and he was silent for a while before he opened his mouth to persuade: "Ozawa-kun...... You are a very good commander, and if possible, try to hold your ground and continue the miracle of the Battle of Kanagawa for the Japanese Empire......"

The Battle of Kanagawa was a strategic decisive battle between the Japanese Empire with the support of Ceylon and the expeditionary force under the command of the Governor General of the Ming Empire in Japan at that time, in this battle, Japan fought against the 100,000 army of the Ming Empire with 20,000 elite infantry, and won the raid in one fell swoop, laying the foundation for Japan's independence. Therefore, the miracle of the Battle of Kanagawa has also become a slogan for the Japanese army to encourage each other.

Kazuhiro Ozawa smiled bitterly, if he had the ability to reproduce the miracle of the Battle of Kanagawa, he would not have made this call to his boss and played such a tragic opening statement. Now he has no chance of winning at all, and the rest of the time is only reserved for him to commit suicide by seppuku.

Just as Ozawa Kazuhiro and Miyamoto Yuhito were saying their final goodbyes, the chief of staff called Akita was already wounded on the battlefield, and he watched his troops retreat with blood on his face, and slashed with the command knife in his hand, killing a soldier who kept retreating.

His sword shocked the Japanese troops around him who wanted to retreat, so the bloodied Dazuo brandished his saber and shouted the slogan "Long live the Japanese Empire", forcing the people around him to attack him again.

Unfortunately, the soldier in front of him was soon shot in the chest by a bullet fired from the Weiyuan 2 machine gun erected by the Ming army on the commanding heights, and the soldier struggled to fall, exposing Akita who was wielding a saber to the fire of the Ming soldiers.

A bullet sliced through the air and slammed into Chief of Staff Akita's head, and then the bullet pierced through the flesh and skull, carrying a patch of blood and broken bones and brains, and smashed the steel helmet on the back of Akita's head, splashing the blood on the faces of the two officers beside Akita.

"For His Majesty the Emperor! Come on! On the high ground of the Ming army, after a shout, the Ming Empire troops wearing slightly different military uniforms rushed out of their trench positions. The soldiers shouted slogans, and under the cover of tanks, it took only a few minutes to break through the first line of defensive positions on the Japanese antislope.

Then they did not stop at all, and soon rushed to the second line of defense - these soldiers shouted slogans, more courageous and tenacious than the Ming army just now. At this time, the defenders of the Japanese position also realized that something was wrong, so the rout became more complete.

"It's the Praetorian Guard of the Ming Dog! It's the Praetorian Guard! "The Japanese army also saw the Ming Janissaries in Liaodong, and they studied this main force of the Ming Dynasty, which was as fanatical as the Japanese, but also had more advanced weapons. They didn't know that this Praetorian Guard's fighting ability in the world was no different from the real elite of the Ming army, but it was more tenacious and reckless -- in the eyes of the soldiers of the Japanese army who had seen the combat style of the Praetorian Guard, these enemies who were even more desperate than themselves were definitely the most terrifying force of the Ming army.

When the overwhelming shouts of the Praetorian Guards sounded on the position, the Japanese anti-slope position completely collapsed. The soldiers of the 17th Division were already unbearable to fight again, and at this moment, in addition to surrendering to the Ming army, the stubborn people could not hold on, and they were soon drowned in the sea of Ming attack.

On the position of the Ming army, Yang Zizhen, who had just been ordered to join the Praetorian Guard and did the last thunderous blow, finally breathed a sigh of relief, he looked at Liu Zhijian, the chief of staff beside him, and said with a smile: "This is finally the position of the Japanese army, and now the rest of the things are much easier." Hurry up and expand the occupied area, let the troops that have broken through the defense line send scouts, and find a way to determine those Japanese hidden artillery positions first! ”

He wanted to stabilize his river crossing area as soon as possible and expand his defensive position to a safe range, of course, the premise of all this was that his troops completely crushed the Japanese 17th Division in front of him...... Now the Ming army has achieved a phased victory, at least the main position of the Japanese army in the vicinity has been held in the hands of the Ming army.

The Ming Army's 2nd Army finally gained a firm foothold on the Japanese defense line on the Yalu River, seized a large area of the river crossing, and ensured that its main forces could cross the Yalu River safely. The Japanese troops, who had lost the defense line on the Yalu River, were now passive, and whether they were able to recover the decline could only be hoped for in the satisfactory performance of the remaining units of the 2nd Division under the command of Major General Ono Sata in the next battle.

At this time, the Japanese 2nd Division had actually reached the area near the designated position for the counterattack, but because the main force of the Ming army was already sweeping away the remnants of the Japanese defense line on the Yalu River, they really had no way to enter the counterattack state in the remaining short time.

Therefore, Miyamoto could only hope for a counterattack at night, hoping that the remaining Japanese soldiers on the position could hold their positions until night came. Therefore, in the roar of the slogan of Long live the Ming Empire of the Ming Empire, Miyamoto Youren was still asking Ozawa Kazuhiro to hold his line of defense as much as possible.

Ozawa Kazuhiro finished what he wanted to say, and regardless of Miyamoto Yuren's prayers, he hung up the phone directly. If the willpower of the individual can change the battle situation at this moment, then maybe Ozawa Kazuhiro has even hit the Jingshi City of the Ming Empire.

The reality is very cruel, although all the officers and men of the 17th Division showed the courage and tenacity of the Japanese elite division in this battle, they were still defeated in the modern war, and achieved the prestige of the Ming Army's 2nd Army.

The gunfire outside was already very close, and Kazuhiro Ozawa knew that he was responsible for the burial of the entire 17th Division. As the supreme commander of the front, he must give an explanation to all the soldiers who died on the battlefield and to his motherland.

Even if he fled at this time and returned to Japan, the guilt of losing his position and losing an entire division would be enough for him to die without a place to be buried. Realizing that he did not have the face to meet the families of the victims, and knowing that he did not have the face to meet His Majesty the Emperor, he finally took off his military uniform, drew the command knife at his waist, and knelt on the cold ground.

"Your Excellency, General!" His chief guard stood beside him, and a final wail stopped Ozawa's movements, but Ozawa only paused and plunged his command knife into his stomach. Because he didn't make up for it with a pistol, it took Ozawa a long time to close his eyes, and when he closed his eyes, the outside of his headquarters had been occupied by the Ming army.
