Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Siege of Anzhou City

Taking advantage of the situation, the Northeast soldiers, who were only halfway through, were once again fiercely blocked by the Japanese army, and a machine gun appeared on the trench again.

Just when the artillery of the Northeast Army was preparing to shell the dense machine guns on the Japanese position again, the Japanese artillery finally began to fire back, and one shell after another accurately fired at the position of the Northeast Artillery.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

Several cannons of the Northeast Artillery were hit, so that a louder cannon sound broke out, and the nearby artillery was affected by the explosion, which instantly caused a lot of losses to the Northeast Artillery.

The Northeast Artillery did not shift and throw the air to return fire at the Japanese artillery, but continued to widen the distance between the cannons a lot, and then continued to shell the Japanese soldiers on the position.

The Japanese artillery shells continued to shoot towards the position of the northeast artillery, and when they heard the sound of the guns that continued to sound, the Japanese artillery was very excited, rolled up their sleeves and wanted to continue to work.

They were just about to increase their firepower to kill the artillery of the Northeast Army, but a large number of shells suddenly rose from another place, and they arrived here in an instant, and a dense explosion sounded, and the Japanese artillery that was hit and affected were annihilated in the explosion.

"How could the people of China have so many cannons? Fooled, quick, fast transfer! The Japanese artillery commander realized that he had fallen for the Northeast Army, and immediately shouted at the artillery that was not hit.

But as soon as he finished speaking, another batch of shells struck, one of which flew like a meteor at the commander, and the result can be imagined, that sentence became his last words.

The artillery that was being urgently transferred was wiped out a lot before they had time to react, so that Mitsutomi Kamio, who was watching the battle in the back, opened his eyes and didn't know that the roots of his teeth were bleeding, and the number of artillery in the northeast exceeded his expectations, and the losses of the artillery were too great.

According to the information they got about the northeast side of the country, Feng Delin's army artillery was pitifully small, after all, they asked Zhao Erxun to deliberately suppress Feng Delin, but they didn't expect the information to be wrong.

Feng Delin's army did not have so many cannons originally, and it was the Chinese Empire that secretly supported them, all of which were allocated to them according to the artillery of the Imperial Wehrmacht army, and Feng Delin also secretly concealed it, so the Japanese army didn't know about this at all. The configuration of one army of the Imperial Wehrmacht is much better than that of a Japanese division, so it is not surprising that Feng Delin's army has more artillery than that of the Japanese division, after all, they are two armies!

Although the Northeast Army has a lot of artillery, their low accuracy is also their shortcoming, and it is precisely in this way that they will come up with a plan to confuse the Japanese army, which is very successful from the situation.

Seizing the opportunity, the Northeast artillery shelled the Japanese artillery again and again, until the barrel was so hot that it was about to stop and cool down, and part of the artillery was also shelling the soldiers and military buildings at the forefront of the Japanese position.

The Japanese artillery that had been transferred with great difficulty were all crying, and the artillery of a division and regiment was beaten by the Northeast Army, and less than a third of the artillery was left, and the artillery losses were even more severe, and the personnel could not use all the remaining artillery at all, so they were forced to take some soldiers who had not practiced artillery to serve as artillery.

The rest of the Japanese artillery did not dare to open fire recklessly, and they all scattered for a long distance before they dared to return fire, for fear that the Northeast Army would wipe them all out.

Without the support of their own artillery, the pressure of the Japanese front-line soldiers was not ordinarily great, and soldiers continued to fall, but they were not afraid, and they were still frantically blocking the Northeast Army. And the soldiers of the Northeast Army have become much easier to attack, and the entire front has advanced a lot.

After the loss of the Japanese artillery Yanzhòng, there were several flaws in the defense of the Japanese army, which were discovered by the Northeast Army, which launched a fierce attack on it.

"Your Excellency Lieutenant General, the left and right flanks of our army have been strongly attacked by the Chinese army, and the weapons and ammunition there are almost unable to support it, do you want to give a little bit of the supplies on the front to the troops on both wings?" A major general sweated profusely and ran up to Lieutenant General Kamio Mitsutomi, saluted and shouted.

"Nani, aren't there enough weapons and ammunition on both wings, how did they run out so quickly? The front one is too nervous to be separated. How could the damn China army have such fierce firepower, could it be that Feng Delin had already cooperated with the China Empire, why didn't the intelligence department find out? Kamio Mitsutomi asked in shock.

"Your Excellency, the supplies of the division and regiment are not much, and many of the materials of the division and regiment are used by the wings stationed on the border of Mukden, the time is too hasty, and those natives have not yet transported the materials of the empire, so the ammunition on the two wings is very lacking. It was when the people of China discovered this that they attacked the two wings violently, and it would not be good if the two wings were destroyed. ”

Kamio Mitsutomi gritted his teeth and said, "You can take some supplies to the troops on both wings, but you must definitely ensure that the soldiers in front can withstand the enemy in front." He had already thought about it, if he couldn't resist it, he would retreat into Anzhou City and use the city wall to defend it.

After finding the flaws of the Japanese army, the Northeast artillery soon carried out a frantic shelling of these areas, and the Japanese artillery was simply inseparable from helping the Japanese troops in those weak places.

The soldiers of the Northeast Army cooperated with the artillery to quickly attack the weak points of the two flanks of the Japanese army, and launched a fierce hand-to-hand battle with the Japanese soldiers in the trenches.

The ammunition taken from the front could not stop the defeat on both flanks at all, and the Japanese army, without artillery support, wanted to block the soldiers of the Northeast Army, who had concentrated more than half of their artillery firepower.

With the increase of soldiers in the northeast, the gaps between the two flanks of the Japanese army are getting bigger and bigger, and there is no possibility of saving, so they can only flee to Anzhou City according to the order of the regiment commander.

"Rush, the Japanese army's front has been opened by us, kill the little devils!!"

"Fuck you, you're going to run away too, hahaha, what about your bushido spirit?"

The Northeast soldiers excitedly rushed in from both flanks of the Japanese army, and they were even more excited when they saw the fleeing Japanese soldiers, scolding and chasing. Being able to fight the Japanese army on the front and escape, this is the first time that their Ninth and Tenth Armies have opened the world, and it is also the first time that the entire Northeast has been launched, can you not be excited? Even those wings that had been annihilated before had never been so happy, and a sneak attack was not comparable to a frontal attack.

The soldiers on both flanks of the Japanese army retreated towards Anzhou City while fighting back, and a lot of ammunition and materials did not come and were transported away, and they were helpless. And the Japanese army, which was head-on against the attack of the Northeast Army, was also forced to begin to retreat, both flanks were breached, and they remained there purely waiting for death.

Half an hour ago, the military flag of the Northeast Army was planted in the place where it was still the position of the Japanese army, which was the military flag designed by the emperor Qin Yu for the Northern Army, a blood-colored Siberian tiger with teeth and claws, extremely domineering.

There were less than 10,000 men left in the 18th Division of the Japanese Army that had withdrawn into Anju Castle, and the losses were so heavy that Lieutenant General Mitsutomi Kamio smashed an unknown amount of porcelain, and several Korean servants were chopped alive with sabers.

The losses of the Ninth and Tenth Armies in the Northeast were no less than those of the Japanese army, and the casualties of nearly 7,000 people also made Feng Delin very heartbroken, only one division, and he had lost so much, and he would not suffer even greater losses when he encountered more Japanese troops in the future, he had already thought about it, and he would immediately train these soldiers in a more hellish way after he returned.

After seeing the 18th Division of the Japanese Army cowering in Anzhou City, Feng Delin did not rush to attack, but left his henchman Wang Jigang and more than 30,000 troops and rushed towards Seoul with 50,000 troops.

Wang Jigang is Feng Delin's staff officer, and now he is the chief of general staff of the Ninth and Tenth Armies of the Northeast Army.

"Listen to my order, give me artillery artillery to bombard the Japanese military facilities on the city wall, snipers to block the Japanese soldiers on the city wall, surround Anzhou City, no entry or exit." Wang Jigang commanded his subordinates.

There is no comparison between the city of North Korea and the territory of China, both the height and thickness are much worse than those in China, and the city wall has not been repaired for a long time, and it looks dilapidated. As long as more than a dozen cannons are gathered to bombard, it should not be long before big holes will appear.

The reason why Wang Jigang did not break the city wall immediately was because he was afraid that the Japanese army would jump over the wall in a hurry, so he would besiege the city first to kill the morale of the Japanese army, and he already knew that the Japanese army did not have too many guns and ammunition.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

Shells were fired at the Japanese soldiers on the city walls, and occasionally shells fell into the city, which was inevitable, and the accuracy of the artillery of Feng Delin's army was low, and the city gate caught fire and affected the pond fish.

Soon a large fire rose in the city, and the fire grew bigger and bigger, and the fire was so enchanting in the night. After the explosion, there were countless screams and moans, occasionally mixed with the chirping and scolding of the Japanese soldiers, and the city was in chaos.

At this time, the North Korean residential buildings were all wooden, so the fire spread quickly, and those North Korean natives panicked to put out the fire, more of them ran to avoid the shells, and did not care about the fire at all.

Instead of rushing to put out the fire, the Japanese soldiers drew their bayonets and sabers and cut them down on the street when they saw the Korean natives making trouble, and the blood flowed all over the ground, and the panicked people were frightened, covering their mouths and crying, and they didn't dare to move.

An officer with a bloody saber carefully wiped his saber with a white handkerchief, and after wiping it, he roared at the mocking people in front of him: "This is the saber that the emperor rewarded me with when I graduated, and it is a shame that I use it today to kill you filthy slaves, all of them will be put to death, and anyone who dares to make trouble will die." After speaking, he pointed to a young woman holding a child in the crowd, and the Japanese soldier next to him smiled obscenely and was about to go up and drag out the woman.

The woman's husband snatched the child and pushed his wife out, and the woman was taken away with tears in her eyes, and the husband began to cry in a few moments.
