Chapter 498: The First Wave of Attacks

As a result of Ishihara's reminder, the Japanese government was not surprised by the news that Huaxia was about to march into Korea, and the supreme commander stationed in Korea, Senior General Umezu Mijiro, had ordered the Japanese troops in all parts of Korea to raise their combat readiness to the highest level.

After a year's rest, these units of the former Kwantung Army, which had been driven to Korea by the former Chahar army, also recovered, and the commanders of each unit vowed to be ashamed.

The Chancellery in Berlin, Germany, "Your Excellency, the Chinese government is going to war with the Japanese again!" German Foreign Minister Ribbentrop was a little worried: "The two great powers in Asia are going to ignite the flames of war again, and if the losses of both sides are too great, it will not be in the interests of our Third Reich." ”

Hitler shook his head: "Dear Ribbentrop, you don't know about war: in God and in the world, it is always the strong who has the right to carry out his will. In the past, the Japanese were strong, so they could do whatever they wanted against China, but now the strong Chinese are finally going to fight back, and one of them must rule the other, either China or Japan. The White House of the United States "Your Excellency, China and Japan are going to war again!" Hawkins hurriedly walked into Roosevelt's office and said excitedly holding up a telegram.

"Really?" A smile flashed in Roosevelt's eyes, "Hawkins, as a peace-loving ordinary person, I should call on both sides to stop confrontation, sit down together and resolve their differences in a peaceful way, so that their people will not be destroyed." But as the president of the United States, I can't do that, and the more intense the war between Japan and China, the more people who die, the more it is in the interests of the United States. Because the Pacific Ocean is so small, it really can't accommodate three powerful countries. ””

"Among the thousand kinds of flowers, only you are in the clouds and ten thousand kinds of umbrellas, and only you are soaring in the blue sky. Umbrella flowers, my partners, my wings carry my singing, carry my pride, and fly to the four corners of the motherland.

Eight thousand miles of clouds and moons record our glorious history, and 90,000 miles of wind, snow and frost exercise our iron backbone. Umbrella flower, my honor, my strength, accompanied by my singing, accompanied by my ideals, to defend the prosperity of the motherland.

Flying general, the majestic airborne troops descended from the sky, and the sound of heroic killing.

Break through the dense forests and hills, and pull up the wind and fire to plunge into the enemy's chest............ Win 100 battles, win 100 battles, brave and tenacious. Ahead! We reinvent the wheel. ”

At a military airfield in Nanning, Guangxi, the officers and men of the 99th Airborne Division, formerly known as the Airborne Regiment, lined up in a neat line, sang the song of the paratroopers, and walked towards the airport in full gear.

Under the leadership of Zhang Lingfu, the 1st Airborne Division, formerly known as the Airborne Regiment, has now developed into an elite unit of more than 15,000 people with three parachute regiments and one support regiment after more than a year of training. They will fire the first shot in this Korean campaign.

As the first important town in Korea near China, Dingju was the gateway for China to enter Korea, and the Japanese amassed more than 30,000 troops here, the main force of which was the Eighth Division. The task they received was to firmly hold Dingzhou, and they must not let the Chinese army easily cross here.

A few days ago, Lieutenant General Kiyoji Kazuki, the commander of the city defense of Dingzhou, ordered all the young Korean men in all Dingzhou cities to be organized to build fortifications and prepare to defend against the attack from China.

As the night darkened, in a fortification still under construction outside the city of Dingju, North Korean laborers, tired from a long day's work, lay down on the damp ground after eating coarse rice and drinking a bowl of rice soup. The weather was still cold at the end of February, but the Japanese were not kind enough to give these people quilts, and many Koreans couldn't stand the low temperature and cursed in a low voice.

Several North Koreans were secretly gathering in a corner to talk to each other, and a middle-aged man with a dark face and calloused hands whispered: "Comrades, the Chinese government has issued a statement, and they will send troops to help our Korean people win independence and gain freedom." The Korean people have been striving for freedom and liberation for the past few decades, and this time, I am under the order of Comrade Kim Sung-ju to lead our people to greet the arrival of the Chinese army, and this time we must overthrow the tyrannical rule of the Japanese and establish a new Korea in which the people are the masters of the country! ”

At this time, a young man next to him hesitated for a moment and asked: "Comrade Park Changshun, it is very good news for us that Comrade Kim Sung-ju can be rushed back from Soviet Russia, but didn't Comrade Kim Sung-ju say before that those Chinese people are some speculators, and now that China has been controlled by those greedy capitalists?" Will our cooperation with them arouse the disgust of the Soviet and Russian governments? Park Changshun, who had a dark face, glared at the young man: "Comrade Kim Sung-ju once taught us that the enemy of our enemy is our friend. Now it is very difficult to drive out the Japanese invaders by our own strength, and as long as the Chinese can help us drive out the Japanese, they are our friends. Although our beliefs are different, this issue has now become a secondary contradiction, and we can discuss these things after the Japanese invaders have been driven out. "Shh......h Don't talk, the Japanese are coming! A nearby young man in charge of guarding the post whispered a warning signal.

Several people quickly dispersed, each lying on the ground and pretending to rest. At this time, a Japanese soldier Cao led two Japanese soldiers to carry a basket and strode over: "Park Changshun, your group has completed the task assigned by the imperial army today, and the imperial army is very happy, so the imperial army has decided to give you more food." ””

After saying that, the soldier waved his hand, and the two Japanese soldiers behind him put down the basket in their hands, revealing dozens of white and dangling heads.

"Goo-dong!" I don't know who swallowed a handful of saliva, and it was clear in the silence. All eyes of everyone around were on this basket.

Seeing that the effect had been achieved, the military cao said with a smile: "Yo Xi, you all eat, this is a reward for the banquet army, as long as you are loyal to the emperor of Japan and the imperial army, there will be a big drop of white-flour steamed buns." ””

As soon as Jun Cao's words fell, dozens of people around him immediately rushed over, stretched out their hands to grab Zhu's head and stuffed it into their mouths.

Seeing this scene, Jun Cao on the side couldn't help nodding with a smile, but secretly disdainful in his heart, "These Koreans are really born slaves, as long as they give them a few steamed buns, they will do their best to do things for you." The Great Japanese Empire needed such minions. ””

The proud Jun Cao did not realize that a pair of vicious eyes were watching him not far away, and soon this basket of dumplings was eaten by dozens of North Koreans. The Japanese soldier Cao also left with the two soldiers satisfied, and praised these Koreans for their serious work before leaving.

It wasn't until the Japanese military Cao had left that the well-fed people realized that Park Changshun was standing aside and staring at them with a cold face.

"You idiots!" , Park Changshun pointed at these people with some hatred and said, "The Japanese invaders only gave you a few mantou and made you happy, you must know this, steamed buns were originally the food we grew ourselves." Seeing that several people were ashamed to bow their heads and remain silent, Park Changshun sighed and whispered, "Okay, let's continue the topic just now." According to Comrade Kim Sung-ju's instructions, the Huaxia troops will attack here in these two days. All we have to do is to wait for the arrival of the Chinese army to show them the way and guide the goal, and as long as Dingzhou is occupied, our great Comrade Kim Sung-ju will return here to lead everyone to continue the struggle. ””

Winter nights always come early, and soon after dinner, the sky darkens, and the North Korean laborers light bonfires one after another and sit around the campfires. The Japanese soldiers did not stop them, and they knew that if the Korean laborers were not allowed to make a fire at night, they would freeze to death in such cold weather.

Although they don't care about the lives of the Koreans, they care about the fortifications, which are related to their own lives.

At three o'clock in the evening, when people's pajamas were being drunk, a faint roar gradually came from afar, which became louder and louder, and soon alarmed the Japanese troops on the position.

At an altitude of more than 3,000 meters in the night sky, more than 200 giant transport planes were flying in a tight formation from the west to the outside of Dingzhou City.

There was little change in the airflow in the air tonight, and the flight of the plane was relatively stable. But the cabin was as cold as ice, making the airborne troops in thick paratrooper uniforms shiver. Wang Yilong, who had been promoted to lieutenant, was loudly telling the soldiers in the cabin what to pay attention to after parachuting, even though the engine noise made it impossible for the soldiers to hear clearly, he still roared loudly.

When the plane descended to an altitude of 600 meters in a slight nasal turbulence, the green light in the cabin flashed, "Di, Di", two bells rang, and the sergeant, who had been standing at the door as a parachutman, opened the cabin door forcefully, and a strong cold air rushed into the cabin. Trees, rivers, rice paddies flow slowly under the wings, and the target is below.

The sergeant reached out and touched Wang Yilong's main and backup umbrellas, patted him on the shoulder, and gave him a thumbs up. This is the last pre-jump inspection, and this simple touch has checked 14 parts related to Wang Yilong's safety. The soldiers in the cabin all gave a thumbs up.

"Di, Di", the yellow light flashed, and the soldiers "Huo", got up at the same time, hunched over the stool, tucked down the seat belt, and put on an off-plane posture. The steel helmet pressed against the comrades in front of him and made a posture of being ready to go. When the green light came on again, the sergeant in front of the hatch waved his right hand outward, and Wang Yilong had already jumped out of the hatch and disappeared suddenly! ~!
