Chapter 9: The Fall of Baoshan (I)

Rewind the clock to the day of the surprise attack.

At the same time that President Jiang received the telegram from Vice President Gu, Yue Weihan's team also returned to Baoshan in a big circle.

Yue Weihan didn't know that he had already killed Teng Tianjin, the lieutenant general of the 3rd Division of the Yue Army, but with only the large amount of oil and military supplies accumulated in the base, the little devil would never give up this time, just wait for dawn, Baoshan City was afraid that it would be destroyed and bombed by the gunners and aviation of the warships immediately!

Yue Weihan has reason to believe that this bombing must be very different from the previous one.

In the past, the army would never waste too many heavy artillery shells and heavy aerial bombs for a Baoshan county town that was not even a tactical target, but now it is difficult to say, if the one who has turned into charcoal before he has time to drill out of the ironclad car is really a big guy, then the crazy revenge of the little devil is even more certain!

Therefore, Yue Weihan immediately ordered a retreat as soon as he returned to Baoshan!

Of course, Yue Weihan is not a pig's brain, and he will never retreat to the south bank of Fuzao with his troops, in fact, at this time, the periphery of Baoshan is full of troops, and a small force of less than ten people may be interspersed at night, and if there are more people, it is simply looking for death! Yue Weihan withdrew into the tunnel with his troops, blew up the entrance to the tunnel and the cellar, and then began a long wait.

Yue Weihan firmly believed that he and the more than forty soldiers around him would definitely be able to return alive in the end, because this was a premeditated retreat, and it was by no means a temporary idea, let alone a helpless move! Unless the little devil transferred tunnel warfare experts from China, it would be impossible to find the tunnel where Yue Weihan and them were hiding.

…………

On the south bank of Fuzaohama, the headquarters of the 98th Division.

The sky was completely bright, but there was no movement in the positions of the troops on the other side.

In other words, the army had already started shelling, and after the shelling, the infantry would launch a fierce attack, but today the army was very abnormal, and it seemed that there was no intention of launching an attack at all.

Just when Xia Zhongyu was puzzled, Chief of Staff Huang Meiwu walked in happily with a thick stack of telegrams in his hand.

"Good news, Master." Huang Meiwu said excitedly, "The Secret Bureau has deciphered the code of the little devil, and the good show last night was really done by Yao Changqing, who sent people to attack the advance base of the little devil, not only destroyed a large number of military supplies, but also killed Teng Tianjin, the lieutenant general of the 3rd Division of the Japanese Army!" ”

"Oh? There is such a thing!? Xia Zhongyu couldn't believe it, "Killed the commander of the division!?" ”

"How can this be fake? The committee has been awarded to the whole country! Huang Meiwu raised the telegram in his hand, and said, "And look at these telegrams, these are congratulatory messages sent by celebrities from all walks of life, the headquarters of various cluster corps, the headquarters of various group armies, and all armies and divisions, and the Quartermaster Department has also received many condolences donated by all walks of life!" ”

"Boom, boom, boom......"

Huang Meiwu's voice fell, and a faint explosion sounded in the northeast.

Xia Zhongyu and Huang Meiwu suddenly looked awe-inspired, the two glanced at each other, and at the same time turned their heads to look at the northeast, the explosion was obviously from the northeast, the two had been in the army for many years, and suddenly thought of the original situation, this must be the army after suffering a big loss, the bombing of Baoshan County in retaliation.

Huang Meiwu said awe-inspiringly: "This place is hundreds of miles away from Baoshan County, but such a violent explosion can still be heard, it seems that Xiao Yuben's combined fleet also participated in the shelling, if it were not for the grenade fired by the main gun of more than 300 millimeters, it would never have produced such a huge explosion." ”

"Hey." Xia Zhongyu slammed his fist on the wall, and his eyes were almost bursting with fire, "It's really not a taste to watch your troops being wiped out by little devils." ”

…………

Songhu Theater Governor's Department.

Although Deputy Chief Gu is only the deputy commander-in-chief of the Songhu Theater, everyone knows that Jiang Jiang, the leader of the national government, is just a name, and that he, the deputy commander-in-chief, is the real supreme commander of the theater.

After giving an impassioned speech and answering a few questions, Vice Chief Gu was always in a good mood and always had a smile on his face, until the adjutant walked in with a solemn expression and whispered a few words to him, Vice Chief Gu's face changed slightly, and then he complained to the reporters attending the meeting and left in a hurry.

Hurriedly arrived at the side hall, and Deputy Chief Gu's face was completely gloomy.

The adjutant cautiously said: "General, the Eighth Bureau of Secrecy has intercepted a lot of messages from the Chinese army, and it has been confirmed that they are the messages exchanged between the headquarters of the Shanghai Dispatch Army and the brigades and regiments of the 3rd Division, and it is reported that the Japanese army will mobilize more than 30 warships, more than 20 bombers, and hundreds of heavy artillery pieces to bomb Baoshan!" Brimstone bombs will also be fired! ”

After speaking, the adjutant looked at his watch again, and said with a heavy expression: "Judging from the time, the bombing should have begun by now." ”

Deputy Chief Gu suddenly closed his eyes in pain, saying that the army had mobilized such a large scale of navy, land and air force to carry out wanton and indiscriminate bombardment at any cost, and the small county town of Baoshan was only afraid that it would be completely scorched, and under such intense artillery fire, let alone people, I was afraid that even a mouse would be wiped out!

It's a pity, it's a pity!

If Yao Changqing and his battalion can be withdrawn, it will be a great incentive for the entire country and the entire nation to fight to the death! The little devil seems to have seen this, so he will bombard Baoshan indiscriminately at any cost, Matsui Shigen, the old devil, is really difficult to deal with!

Seeing that Deputy Chief Gu was speechless for a long time, the adjutant reminded in a low voice: "General Seat, do you want to let the 98th Division attack?" ”

Deputy Chief Gu sighed and shook his head again and again: "No, no, Xiao Yue has already started shelling, and if you send the troops up at this time, won't it be all cannon fodder?" ”

The adjutant said again: "The main seat, the commission seat is there......"

Deputy Chief Gu sighed again and said, "Report it truthfully, it's not that we can't save it, it's really impossible to save it." ”

…………

Baoshan County.

After four hours, the indiscriminate bombardment of the Yue army finally ended, and at this time, there was not even a single intact tile to be found in Baoshan, the ancient and strong city walls had completely collapsed, and thousands of houses were almost flattened by artillery fire, and completely reduced to rubble in the fire caused by sulfur bombs.

Ruins, Baoshan at this time is completely in ruins!

When the smoke cleared, at least four squadrons of devil infantry poured into Baoshan County at the same time from all directions, but what awaited them was a scorched earth, and on this still burning scorched earth, they didn't even find a living mouse, let alone a living soldier.

The co-captain of the 68th Wing, Takashi Takamori, accompanied by the deputy wing commander Jiro Nishio, climbed the ruins of the castle wall.

Standing at the head of the city and looking down, I saw that Baoshan City was full of messes, and there was no building that could exceed four meters in height, and the fire that had not been extinguished burned the entire city into scorched earth, and among the collapsed houses and broken walls, the scorched limbs and remnants of the soldiers of China could be vaguely seen.

Takashi Takamori thought that his military career was over, and His Excellency Tengda's jade shatter was a huge blow to the prestige of the Imperial Army, and Takashi was even ready to seppuku, but His Excellency General Matsui unexpectedly gave him a chance to atone for his sins, as long as he could capture Baoshan before dark today, and kill all living creatures in Baoshan Castle.

Now, Baoshan has been trampled under his feet, as for the Baoshan City...... Is it possible that there are still living creatures?

Unlike Takashi Takamori's relief, Jiro Nishio's heart is full of regrets, he missed this opportunity, and he doesn't know what year and month it will be if he wants to be the captain of the wing. However, soon, Nishio Jiro adjusted his mentality and proposed to Takashi Takamori: "Your Excellency Osa, is it not to conduct a thorough search of Baoshan so that no remnants of the army will slip through the net?" ”

"Hmm." Takashi nodded heavily, and then gritted his teeth and said, "Nishio-kun's proposal is very reasonable, the Chinese army in Baoshan City has caused a great bruise to the prestige of the imperial army, we must not let them go easily, pass the order, we must carefully search every corner and every inch of land, and we must not let any of the Zhina soldiers slip through the net!" ”

"Hey." Nishio Jiro bowed his head in agreement, then turned around and gave the order.
