Chapter 284: Tiger's Mouth Plays with Tooth Extraction
The commander of the 68th Wing, Takashi Takamori, has been holding back the evil fire in his heart, the person is so hateful, not only has he destroyed all the roads, but he also has to test his mother to test his saliva, and he is annoyed to death.
Takashi Takashi is not satisfied with the base camp, and he is also dissatisfied with the commander Matsui Ishine, how these people are getting more and more cowardly!
Especially Matsui Shigen, who has repeatedly ordered that he must not divide his troops, and must concentrate his troops, this is simply to scare himself, the people of Chi Na are just a group of pigs, a group of fat pigs to be slaughtered, can they be so cautious?
However, although Takamori Takashi strongly believed that the Shina people were pigs, at the same time, he was also afraid that even if Matsui Ishone did not give an order, he would not dare to divide his troops easily.
As soon as he entered Shandong, Ying Mori Xiao felt uncomfortable, he was wrong, and the most direct reason was that he had not seen a pig until now.
It was empty.
It's nothing less, but it's too much...... Now, seeing those empty villages and towns, the sky is white, Ying Senxiao can't help but feel a cool breeze coming from the back of his neck, as if there is a kind of ghost around him.
It is this contradictory heart and feeling that makes Takamori's anger stronger and stronger day by day.
In front of him is the county seat of Jinxiang, he doesn't believe that there is no one, and after arriving, if the pig dares to disobey the orders of the imperial army, they will all die.
The troops stopped again.
"Yaga!" Takashi couldn't help but curse, no need to ask, the road ahead must have been cut off again.
The main road from Xuzhou to Jinan has been extremely damaged, almost all of them have been destroyed, but like these areas far from the big cities, the road damage is not serious, but in some areas where it is difficult to pass on both sides of the road, it is very badly damaged.
Here it is.
Riding on horseback, Takashi Takamori raised his binoculars and looked ahead.
It seems that the road has been cut off for three or four miles, and the terrain here is low-lying, and a lot of rain has accumulated and it is very muddy, and people are barely able to get there, and it is too difficult to pull the carts that feed the baggage.
"Yaga!" Ying Senxiao cursed again, it seems that if you can go to Jinxiang County before dark, you can burn high incense.
There was no choice but to wait for the sappers to build the road, because they wanted to bypass it from somewhere else, and experience proved that it was better to build the road honestly.
"Yaga!" After waiting for a while, Takamori became more and more annoyed.
No way, just wait honestly.
Originally, the troops stretched for seven or eight miles, but now, imperceptibly, the troops are getting denser and denser.
He was used to this, and Takashi Takamori didn't care, he got off the horse and sat on the ground to rest.
Within a few hundred meters on both sides of the road, there are all bean fields, not green yarn tents, which makes everyone's vigilance greatly reduced, so many people learn from Yingsen filial piety and loosen up.
ββββLooking at the army gathered on the road, Liu Shuai said: "Pair the table." β
Behind Liu Shuai, Chief of Staff Li Da picked up the phone and ordered: "Pair the table." After a pause, he looked at the pocket watch in his hand and said, "It's fourteen twenty-seven." β
At this time, Liu Shuai said again: "Attack in five minutes." β
Li Da said into the microphone: "Five minutes later, thirty-two points will attack." β
Time passed minute by minute, and in five minutes, Li Da saw that Liu Shuai was not moving, he picked up the phone and ordered: "Attack!" β
As the order to attack was given, in a dense burst of rifle fire, hundreds of devils who were guarding the bean fields on both sides of the road fell almost simultaneously.
At the same time, in the bean fields about 300 meters from both sides of the road, patches of beans were overturned.
The place where the beans were overturned turned became a position, and seven hundred light machine guns and two hundred heavy machine guns spewed poisonous fire to reap the lives of these humanoid beasts.
The sixty-eighth wing had ten tanks, which had just raised their muzzles when they were destroyed by bazookas.
Everything was precisely calculated, and there were no blind spots in the firepower, and even more so no omissions.
Twenty minutes later, the stormy machine-gun fire suddenly stopped, and the charge began.
Thirty minutes, the battle ended.
Immediately, without stopping for a moment, the battlefield began to be cleaned.
The cleaning of the battlefield is called a careful one, and the shells must be collected, that is, the warheads, and they should be collected as much as possible.
As for the destroyed tanks, they must be taken away, in short, the standard for cleaning the battlefield is that even a nail is not allowed to fall.
In this ambush, not a single prisoner was captured, because everything was so perfect that even some of the people who did not die were seriously injured.
The devils who were seriously injured had no need to live, so they all died.
All the corpses of the devils, except for a diaper, were stripped off and then pushed into the ditches on both sides of the road and buried.
-- At dusk, the 3rd Division was stationed in Heze.
While others were still busy, the division commander Fujita Jin stood in front of the map, carefully looking at his responsibility field.
Russi will be his defense zone from now on.
At this time, the chief of staff, Tajiri Toshio, hurriedly walked to Fujita's side and said with a little nervousness: "Your Excellency General, Katayama-kun is calling, and the 68th Wing has lost contact. β
"Katayama-kun" is the commander of the 5th Brigade, Major General Riichiro Katayama.
Fujita Susuru's face was gloomy like water.
It's not a mountainous area, and a company has at least four radios, so it's impossible to break them all, so losing contact is almost the same as being wiped out.
But how is this possible?
Fujita Shindo: "Ask for air support." β
-- Matsui Ishone's head was buzzing.
One east and one west, two wings lost contact at the same time, what does this mean, don't ask.
The destination of the 68th Wing of the 5th Brigade of the 3rd Division was Jinxiang County, and the destination of the 35th Wing of the 6th Brigade of the 9th Division was the county seat of Feixian.
He was already very cautious, the sixty-eighth wing and the thirty-fifth wing were slow in advancing for a whole day, which left these two wings completely under the protection of the other armies, but he didn't expect something to happen.
This is a tooth extraction, a naked provocation.
Matsui Ishine was not impulsive, and with the experience of Umezu Mijiro and others, he did not dare to be impulsive, although it was likely to delay the fighter.
What really scared Matsui Shigen was the weirdness of this incident, and weirdness was the style of the Black God Army.
This night, the Imperial Army did not dare to move, and it was not until noon the next day that they discovered the location of the accident and found the body buried in the ditch.
-- Matsui Ishone's face was extremely pale, and his face was so ugly, not because of these corpses, but because the corpses were well buried.
There is no need for the people of China to bury the corpse, because they will definitely find it and bury the corpse.
In doing so, the people of China were completely laughing at him, mocking the 300,000 imperial army.
Before coming to the ambush position, Matsui Ishone's face became more and more unsightly.
Obviously, this is another tunnel, if it is not an tunnel, it is impossible to hide from the scouts, but the soil here is relatively thin, and the people below can push it away with a single effort.
This is the land of the Chinese people, not to mention that the Black God Army has no shortage of radio stations, so it is not difficult to judge the direction of their actions in advance.
Matsui Ishone's spine was cold, and he thought of the fiasco of Umezu Mijiro, and summarized the reasons for the defeat, one of which was that he did not dare to divide his troops.
Now, Matsui Ishine knows that he is also facing the same dilemma, but, at that time, Umezu Mijiro did not dare to divide his troops, and the impact was not great, but if he did not dare to divide his troops, wouldn't the occupation of Shandong become an empty word?
-- Tokyo, base camp.
Prince Zaihito of the Idle Palace Courtyard frowned, and in front of him, there was a report from Matsui Ishone.
In the eyes of Prince Zaihito, Matsui Ishone's report was a joke, but alas, it was not a joke.
It was a huge shame for Matsui Ishine to report like this, but even so, Matsui Ishine wrote this report.
The two wings, the elite of the Eight Thousand Empire, under the escort of the 300,000 army, were silently wiped out by the Shina people, and not even a single blister was splashed.
Prince Jaehion had the feeling of dreaming, everything was so unreal.
Matsui Ishone demanded a change in the plan drawn up by the base camp, proposing to postpone the occupation of the entire territory of Shandong, first carry out the north-south advance, join forces in Pingjin, eliminate the living forces of China, and then occupy the whole of North China.
What to do? Prince Jaehito also had no fixed opinion in his heart.
Sugiyama Moto's people were discussing Matsui Ishine's report, and Prince Zaihito could have imagined what kind of scene.
Regarding Matsui Ishone's report, Sugiyama Moto's main battle faction was simply dizzy.
The Shrinking China Battlefield already made them feel very bored, but they never thought that compared to Matsui Ishone's report, the Contraction China Battlefield would not be a matter at all.
However, with the experience of Umezu Mijiro, Matsui Ishone's words are much better, and no matter how angry Sugiyama Moto's group is, they can't run the train with their mouths full of nonsense, let alone big hats flying all over the sky and knock Matsui Ishone into the dust.
This matter quarreled for another ten days, and in the end, Prince Zaihito made a final decision and agreed to Matsui Ishone's request.
After receiving the call from the base camp, Matsui Ishine breathed a sigh of relief, but although he was relieved, his heart was gloomy.
In these words, Matsui Ishone had a new understanding of the destruction of roads and the ubiquitous trenches, and it was these new understandings that made the old devil no longer optimistic about the prospects of the war against China.
At first, he just thought it would be more difficult for the imperial army, but now he ...... Not difficulty, but horror.
First of all, terror manifests itself in specific military aspects.
Now, it is already clear that the Black God Army and [***] are not the Kuomintang, and the strategies and tactics of the two are completely different.
The Kuomintang is fighting hard and fighting for every inch of land, but the Black God Army and [***] are not like this at all, they don't defend the big cities at all, they don't fight the decisive battle at all, but they bite hard when they find the opportunity, just like they did in Jinxiang County and Fei County.
This kind of strategy and tactics is extremely annoying, but the combination of large-scale destruction of roads and trenches makes it even more powerful.
In order to crack this strategy and tactics, rapid maneuver is a necessary prerequisite, otherwise you can only watch, and the large-scale destruction of roads and trenches by the people of China made the rapid maneuver of the imperial army impossible.
I don't know where the road is broken, and I don't know where a trench suddenly appeared, but there is no doubt about this, the Chinese army knows that although the destruction of the road and the digging of the trench have also caused certain difficulties to the Chinese army, it is very small, and they must have a road to pass smoothly.
These are already headaches, but this is not enough to make Matsui Ishine feel terrified, what makes the old devil feel terrified is the meaning behind the destruction of roads and digging trenches.
The implication of them is that the people of Shina are highly organized, and this is the real reason why Matsui Shigen feels chills all over his body.
Equal distribution of land, tax exemption for three years!
Now, as long as Matsui Shigen thinks of these eight words, no matter how hot it is, he also feels chills all over his body.
The key to the reason why this is strong and the reason why China is weak is the degree of organization of the whole society, and now from Shandong, he can meet the situation of Hebei.
How long has the Black God Army and [***] been running Shandong, and how long has it been running Hebei, especially Baoding?
If possible, Matsui Ishine wanted to give up Shandong completely, but this was impossible, and it was impossible for the base camp to agree, so he had to retreat to the next best.
ββββJinan.
Matsui Ishine frowned, and he was faced with another dilemma: how many cities to occupy, and how many troops to leave in Shandong?
According to the secret report of the special high-tech people, there are local armed forces of the Chinese people everywhere, and the total number is not clear at all, and as for the regular troops of the Chinese people, the special high-tech department does not know exactly how many there are, but one thing is certain, a considerable part of the regular troops of the Chinese people are mixed with the local armed forces.
Headache to death.
Obviously, if the Chinese army attacked the city they were stationing, it was easy not to expect any reinforcements. This is because it is not easy for reinforcements to arrive, and it is even more because I am afraid that the Chinese army is openly attacking the city, and secretly it is for reinforcements.
Judging from the corpses of the two wings that were completely annihilated, most of them were killed by machine guns, and it is estimated that the Chinese army probably had more than 2,000 light and heavy machine guns.
If you enter an ambush circle composed of so many machine guns, then, even a division, it will be more than lucky.
With so many light and heavy machine guns, there will naturally be no shortage of artillery.
In this way, each city had to have at least one brigade to be insured, which meant that only one division could occupy two cities.
Occupy the city, not occupy the county, the base camp has already made a big concession, if there are not even a few cities, then how to explain to the base camp?
The more cities that can be occupied, the more troops left behind will have to increase, but Terauchi Shouichi's North China dispatch army has not been able to break through the Great Wall defense line so far, and if only his army enters Hebei and has fewer troops, it is more likely to make a mistake.
What to do?
While Matsui was hesitating, the good news came that the North China Dispatch Army had finally broken through the Great Wall defense.
-- In Taiyuan, in a high-gate compound, under a leafy ancient acacia, Pang Bingxun, the former commander of the 40th Army, was half-lying on a purple bamboo rattan chair with his eyes closed.
The breeze is blowing, and the leaves are waving.
It seems that Pang Bingxun is very leisurely, but in fact, Captain Pang is extremely depressed.
Half a month ago, at the strong request of the commanders of many divisions and brigades under his command, Pang Bingxun handed over the army, and then, together with the commanders of those divisions and brigades under his command, he was disarmed and returned to the field, and became a common man.
More than a month ago, the Yue Army began to attack again, probably knowing that the 40th Army was a miscellaneous card among the miscellaneous cards, so the attack was particularly fierce.
Pang Bingxun is subdued, paralyzed, and even the little devils are bullied.
After holding out for half a month, many officers couldn't stand it anymore, so they strongly demanded from Pang Bingxun, demanding that they hand over the army and withdraw from the battle.
This is the second way given to them by the Black God Army, if you don't want to die in battle, and don't affect your family, then hand over the army before losing ground and defeating.
In fact, it was not only these officers under him who couldn't hold on, but Pang Bingxun himself couldn't hold on, so he didn't bother much and quickly agreed.
After handing over the army, everyone took care of themselves, and most of them went to Taiyuan.
Without the army, Pang Bingxun was exhausted and too uncomfortable.
Just then, a guest arrived.
The guest was Pang Bingxun's chief of staff, Lee Teng-yun, who has now taken up a new position beside Yan Xishan.
Li Dengyun came to report that Luo Wenyu's defense line had just been broken through by devils.
Luo Wenyu was the pass defended by their 40th Army, and after the troops were handed over, they were pushed up by [***] troops.
After Li Dengyun left, Pang Bingxun's mood improved a lot, and he was paralyzed, and he balanced.
ββββTen miles north of Zunhua City is Shanwangzhuang Village.
From Luowenyu at the pass of the Great Wall to Zunhua City, Shanwangzhuang Village is a must-pass place.
In the land, this year is a little different from previous years. This year, all the fields are planted with either sorghum or bud rice.
Not only that, but the horns that no one planted in previous years have also been planted this year.
In short, if anyone wants to find a vacant land, it is difficult to say one word. Therefore, at a glance, there are airtight green gauze tents everywhere.
On both sides of the road, covered by impermeable green gauze tents, ravines are vertical and horizontal. Most of these ravines are two meters wide and appear to be deep, filled with murky rainwater.
On the outside of the ditch near the main road, half a meter above the water, there is a ladder platform. On some of the abutments, quite a few soldiers with guns lay on the outer edges of the abutments.
These soldiers are all from the Zunhua County Brigade, although they are all wearing the clothes of the common people, and the name of the county brigade is also on the top of their heads, but in fact, they are regular troops.
This is just to hide people's eyes.
"Monkey, you kid is the most fucking greedy, remember, if you dare to go out and pick up a gun later, Lao Tzu will kill you with one shot!" The three platoon commanders are tall tigers foaming at the stars, reaffirming discipline.
"You also say that you are more greedy than me." The monkey muttered quietly.
This is a slap in the face, although Gao Dahu is not very old, but he has participated in the Long March, because he often violates discipline and has been punished many times, otherwise he would not be just a platoon commander now.
Gao Dahu's eyes just widened, and at this time, the soldier in charge of the guard ran over and said, "Platoon commander, the little devil has arrived." β
Glaring at the monkey, the tall tiger said, "Prepare to fight!" β
