Vladivostok was originally a semi-militarized city, so its center was the headquarters of the Russian Far Eastern Military District, which was the most contested place between China and Japan, and the two sides fought here with a river of blood.

As soon as the morning dawned, a large group of black-pressed planes flew from the southwest direction of Vladivostok, which had just been replenished to the naval division from the direction of Chahar. In view of the fact that the ground attack was not satisfactory in the Avengers of the Avengers, Su Tong specially transferred a Stuka Flying Regiment to the HNA to strengthen the ground attack capability of the HNA Division.

Around the Stuka group, there are more than two hundred, Wildcat, fighter planes escorting around, in this more than half a month of brutal air combat, "Wildcat, the fighter has been proven to be a flying xìng can not be very outstanding, but it is a very sturdy fighter.

During the half-month period of the Battle of Jiāo, 226 Wildcats and fighters were damaged, but most of them were able to return to the airport with scarred bodies, so the casualties of the pilots of the HNA were far lower than those of the Japanese army, only more than 70.

Although there is little difference between the flight capabilities of the Chinese and Japanese planes, the Japanese army has damaged more than 400 fighters and more than 200 pilots since the start of the war for half a month, which is already nearly half of the flight strength of the Japanese Kwantung Army.

"Lì Buzz ......"

The sound of hundreds of warplanes flying through the sky together was so amazing that their loud roar could be heard in Ryosuke Isoya's underground command post.

At this time, Ryosuke Isoya was listening to the staff officer's report on the battle situation: "Your Excellency, General, several division commanders of the air force have reported that the aircraft have been lost too much, and they have not sent out fighters to support us before the support from the mainland arrives. ”

"This group of damn planes", as soon as the Chahar fighters were mentioned, the commander of the Seventh Division, Kazuichiro Sonobe, was angry "These Chahar planes are like a swarm of locusts that can't be killed" The ratio of the empire's battle loss rate to theirs is not much worse, but I have never seen their fighters decrease, what is going on? And it's no wonder that Sonobe and Ichiro were annoyed, a large part of the Japanese casualties were caused by Chahar's planes. Fighting in a place like Vladivostok, "without the slightest psychological pressure, the soldiers of the Tsuri and his expeditionary group were using all kinds of weapons, all kinds of aircraft, and heavy artillery, so that the number of Japanese casualties remained high.

The Japanese also wanted to use heavy artillery to counterattack, but as soon as the artillery was fired, several bombs were dropped by the planes hovering in the sky, and the Japanese army was aggrieved.

"Sonobe-kun, it's useless to complain" Now let's discuss how to deal with the offensive of the people on the opposite side, how are the casualties of your Seventh Division now?" Speaking of this, Ryosuke Isoya was also aggrieved in his heart, thinking that he was a dignified imperial lieutenant general, leading the empire's nearly 200,000 troops to come, and fought with the enemy for half a month, but was forced to take a defensive position by the army of 100,000 people on the opposite side, which was really a shame to be thrown to grandma's house.

When Sonobe and Ichiro heard Ryosuke Isoya's question, his face suddenly turned purple, and he hesitated for a moment before he squirmed and said, "The number of casualties of the Seventh Division has now reached more than 8,000 people. ”

"Nani?" The Seventh Division is a first-class division, also known as the whole division of the Horse Division, with a total of four infantry wings and one wing each of engineers, cavalry, artillery, and darts, a total of eight wings, plus a total of 28,200 non-combatants from the headquarters of the first division and two brigades. It has only been less than half a month since the start of the war, and it has lost 8,000 people, which means that it has already lost one-fifth of the combatants, which is not a Xiǎo number.

"Sonobe-kun, you're not mistaken, your Seventh Division's combat effectiveness is not weak? How could there be such a big loss? Kyosuke Kawamura, the commander of the 17th Division, asked with his eyes wide in disbelief.

"I'm reluctant to say that, but it's true." Sonobe and Ichiro said helplessly, and then said with some annoyance, "You must know that our Seventh Division is stationed in the city center, where the focus of the people is fighting, and your Seventeenth Division is just helping on the side, what qualifications do you have to come to us!" "Baga, it's your incompetence, don't blame others for everything. As soon as he heard Kazuichiro Sonobe sarcastically mocking himself, Kyosuke Kawamura was furious.

"Are we incompetent? Otherwise, your 17th Division will go to the city center to try, and our 7th Division will still fight for half a month, not for me to look at you, "If you change your 17th Division, I dare to guarantee that you will not be able to survive even three days." Sonobe Kazuichiro also did not show weakness and ridiculed.

"Bastard, you dare to look at our seventeenth division!" , Kyosuke Kawamura slapped the table and stood up, "Seeing that the two sides were about to fight again, Ryosuke Isoya shouted: "Enough" Do you still look like a high-ranking general of the empire? Sit it all down for me! Ryosuke Isoya paused before saying: "The casualties of the Seventh Division are too great, Kawamura-kun, your Seventeenth Division will go to take over the defense area of the Seventh Division today, remember, be sure to hold the city center."

Meeting! "Hey! Everyone bowed together and exited the conference room......

In the headquarters of the expeditionary group army, there was a young captain standing in front of the Beliten, who was a low-ranking officer who had come here yesterday with Song Yunfei's 0335 airship. He took out a document from the briefcase beside him, handed it to Sun Liren with both hands, and said: "This is an order personally signed by Commander Su, please look at it yourself, and after reading it, please execute it immediately." Sun Liren cautiously took the document and read it carefully, this order was written by Su Tong himself, Ran Rong was very simple, and only a few words were written on it: "In view of the long delay in the battle in Vladivostok and the excessive casualties of our army, Captain Yang Rongpeng of Special Command Yang Rongpeng transported 73 tons of special No. 3 ammunition to Vladivostok for the use of the expeditionary group army." This order: November 20, the 26th year of the Republic of China by Su Jianming. After reading the order, Bei Liren was silent for a while before he said slowly: "Please tell Chief Su that I will follow it." ”

He took out a cigarette case, opened it, took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, reached out on his body, took out the lighter, lit it, and picked up the order and lit it.

Seeing that order slowly turn into ashes, Yang Rongpeng, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but have a hint of strangeness in his eyes, he knew that Sun Liren's move was to take all the responsibilities.

Sun Liren saw the look in Yang Rongpeng's eyes and smiled bitterly: "As the parent official of 70 million people in the four provinces of Chahar, Chief Su must not bear this stain. Besides, Chief Su treats me as a national soldier, and Liren is deeply favored by Chief Su, so this infamy will be borne by Liren. ”

Yang Rongpeng said solemnly when he heard this: "Don't be a sir, you are worthy of being the country's pillar, Rong Peng admires it!" Sun Liren...... Snorted, "I invaded our land and killed my people, even if I used cruel means, not to mention that these things have not been used in our land, we just treat others in the way of others." Captain Yang, your mission has been completed, go back and tell Chief Su that Liren will never let him down......"

Looking at the trace of murderous aura emanating from Sun Liren's body, Lu Rongpeng couldn't help but shudder in his heart, and hurriedly took the order out.

The temperature in Vladivostok in December has reached minus 2 to 3 degrees, and the Japanese troops defending south of Vladivostok today are very surprised, and the Chinese army on the opposite side today is surprisingly quiet, there is no shelling, no gunfire, and no one has launched an attack, and the fierce tank charge and dense bullet rain of the past are gone. The 17th Division of the Japanese Army also changed guards with the 7th Division, and Kyosuke Kawamura looked through the telescope at the direction of the silent expeditionary group army on the opposite side and couldn't help but wonder curiously. Why is it so quiet?

Kyosuke Kawamura, who was puzzled, ordered a fire reconnaissance from the front, and after a while of gunfire in front of the front-line organs and artillery fire, the opposite side was still silent.

"Could it be that all the Chinese troops on the opposite side have retreated?" Kyosuke Kawamura, who was getting louder and more wrong, hurriedly ordered the front line to send a brigade to launch a feint, but I didn't expect the front line to report after a while, the position on the opposite side of the branch was empty, and the people of the branch had retreated.

"Nani? Fall back? Kyosuke Kawamura couldn't believe his ears, didn't the people of China compete with him for Vladivostok? That's a big joke, the people of China know even a junior soldier about Vladivostok's mentality, how can they retreat?

The more he thought about it, the more wrong Kyosuke Kawamura became, pacing back and forth in the headquarters, "No, there must be something wrong with the Shina people." No, you must report the situation to His Excellency Ryosuke Isoya. ”

Kyosuke Kawamura, who was about to put his hand on the desk for the phone, suddenly heard a sharp and rapid whistling sound from outside, flying towards him.

Kyosuke Kawamura shouted, "It's not good, it's shelling." ”

As soon as Kyosuke Kawamura's words fell, he heard a cannonball fall on the ground, but instead of the familiar loud noise, there was a dull explosion, not like a cannonball explosion but like the sound of a water tank bursting.

"In a dull thud." A staff officer rushed in and reported, "Your Excellency, the commander of the reporting division, there is nothing in the shells sent by the people of China, but there is a strange smell, and this smell is like a fragrance, like the smell of apples, which is really strange." ”

Kyosuke Kawamura was stunned and muttered, "Strange fragrance? Isn't it bad! Kyosuke Kawamura lost his voice and shouted: "It's the poison gas that the person is going to prevent poison gas, quickly order the troops to quickly put on gas masks!" ”！。
