Chapter 486: Snow Attack (Part II)
Kita Seichi was awakened by a loud explosion, he sat up suddenly, and then looked outside, only to see the water vapor on the window and the constant red and yellow light, he wiped the window with his hand, and then simply opened the window directly, and the cold winter wind poured in, but he didn't care anymore, no matter how cold the winter wind was, it couldn't be compared with his current heart, looking at the shells that kept falling outside the city, he could see at a glance that it was the symbol of the main force of the Eighth Route Army - whistling heavy artillery.

Attacked yourself?
If in the past, Kita Chengyi was attacked by the Eighth Route Army, he must have been very excited, which means that someone is looking for death and sent to the door! But in recent years, the Eighth Route Army will conquer and win the battle, and all the Japanese officers have understood a truth, if you find the Eighth Route Army, then you may be able to defeat them, but if the Eighth Route Army takes the initiative to find you, or the night or other relaxation time, then congratulations, you are going to become a god!
"Knock knock" There was a quick knock on the door, and Kita Cheng shouted loudly, "Come in!" ”
A staff officer came in and said, "Report... Report! The Eighth Route Army suddenly appeared from all directions and was attacking our army, it was definitely the main force of the Eighth Route Army, and the southern troops of our army and the enemy's mecha troops met and had been broken! ”
"Mecha troops? They have tanks? Kita Seiichi exclaimed in fright.
"Yes, they have tank troops, and they are heavy tanks, our weapons have almost no effect in front of their tanks, and our defenses are already about to be broken by them." This staff officer is obviously more experienced, and he has already inquired about the situation at the front line, and is waiting to be asked.
"Not good... Pitfall... It's a trap! Immediately sent a telegram to General Okamura Ninji for help, ordering the troops to concentrate and defend the county seat! Now we must not immediately take the county, otherwise on the plains, we will just be the target of those tanks! Xi Duocheng shouted loudly, as the commander of the main division, he actually knows a lot about tanks, and there should have been a lot of mecha forces in his division, but now the snow is falling, the road is difficult to walk, and the car needs maintenance, and those precious mecha armaments are all left in Jinan, and the people here are actually light infantry, not even a heavy artillery, just think about it, if there is heavy artillery, where are these Japanese troops still chasing the Eighth Route Army of Shanglin Sanhu?
Kita Makoto was trembling in his clothes, and every explosion outside he felt that he had sounded his death knell, and he was guarding the county seat... How long can it last? Looking at the explosion outside, these Eighth Route Army didn't look like they lacked firepower and ammunition at all.

Okamura Ninji's hand holding the telegram was about to shake into Parkinson's, he looked at the heavy snow outside, and he didn't have to think about it to know that the air force didn't need to be counted on, so what about the army? The army has now been dragged into a long snake formation by the Eighth Route Army, although there are a large number of troops behind the first section of Kitacheng, but where to go at this time, the troops who can arrive in one night have already hurried into Linqu, and the current infantry will set off immediately, and it will take 12 hours to arrive.
After 12 hours, after Okamura Ninji understood the time limit, he said to the signal soldiers, "Send a telegram to Kita Seiichi immediately, he will hold it for 12 hours no matter what, and send telegrams and telephones to all departments, ordering them to move closer to Linqu immediately, and must not let the 14th Division be broken!" ”
The jade shatter that Okamura Ningji said is not a person, it is the jade fragment of a division, if the final result is really like this, Okamura Ningji doesn't have to worry about anything anymore, let's think about how to deal with those people in Tokyo first, he took the position so quickly, but there are many people who are jealous of him.
-- Linqu
"Report to the division commander, our troops have broken through to the county seat, and now the devils are holding the city, and the Japanese troops on the periphery are also trying to delay time by relying on the county seat." The front-line communication soldier was called in front of Lin Sanhu and reported to Lin Sanhu.
"It's hard work, everyone, it seems that the little devil is unwilling, thinking about waiting for the Japanese army behind to catch up." Lin Sanhu said with a smile.
"Hehe, this is also an old tactic, in case of an attack, immediately wait for reinforcements on the spot, and then cooperate with the outside, this tactic is actually useful, both our army and the national army have suffered a lot of losses under this tactic." Nie Rongzhen shook his head and said.
Lin Sanhu snorted, "It's a pity that we are the 115th Division, commanding the tank regiment." Give me a circle around the county from south to north, and drive the little devils up for me, don't they like to run? They all ran to our China, I think I can run again! ”
Xu Guangda was actually already doing this, in the ice and snow, he only felt that he was going to be hot and sweaty, he wiped the sweat on his forehead, pointed to the front and said, "up!" I can't! This little devil can really fight to the death! ”
A hundred tanks have turned into a big knife and a giant axe, constantly launching a chiseled attack on the Japanese position, every time a line of defense is broken, the infantry following the tank will immediately catch up and tear the retreating Japanese army to pieces, because most of the Japanese army is resting and sleeping, and has not built any fortifications, so most of the positions are just very simple trenches, which can not withstand the charge of the tank regiment at all.
The role of the tank is actually very imaginary with the role of the ancient cavalry, part of it lies in the mobility and charging ability, but the greater role is in the deterrence of the soldier's heart, if an infantry sees the charge of several infantry, he knows that the rifle in his hand can kill the other party, in the long-term training and under the command of the commander, he has the courage to fight with the enemy on the opposite side, and if the opposite side is a group of tanks, then not to mention anything else, he has no chance to fight with him hand-to-hand, The soldiers will immediately find a reason for themselves not to fight, and then flee the battlefield, the original fortified position will immediately collapse, otherwise I really think that the tank can kill how many people, the real casualties are actually pursued by the infantry after the troops retreat, for example, in this time and space has not yet started the Soviet-German war, only tank troops, although the German army can break through, but it is impossible to have such a big result, the infantry cooperation is the most important thing.
The Japanese counterattack was very sharp, although there was not much heavy firepower, but there was really no shortage of machine guns, although a large number of machine gun fire was also summoned to take care of a large number of artillery, but after all, it resisted the attack of the surrounding infantry, except for the tank regiment.
"When Dangdangdang" a long list of bullets hit the tank, Xu Guangda listened to the voice like Xianle, smiled with satisfaction, and remembered the first time he was attacked while sitting on the tank, he was still a little worried, but now he is not worried, if it is not a tank and a battle defense gun, his own tank will not be afraid of anything, and it is a tank, in such a long battle, he did not find that the Japanese tank can match his tank regiment.
The day was about to dawn, and the Japanese troops outside the city were finally rushed by Xu Guangda in a circle and collapsed, under the supervision of artillery fire and tanks, these Japanese troops turned to the county seat, hoping to escape into the county town as a barrier, Kita Chengyi was immediately anxious, yes! If you live, there is no problem with 20,000 people living in the county, but now it's time to fight, Linqu is so small, it is completely covered by the opponent's firepower, if all come in, then there is no need to fight, just wait to be bombed and it will be blown up, as for waiting for reinforcements..... After seven or eight hours of shelling, there are no fortifications in the city, what do you need reinforcements for? Collect the body?
Kita Seiichi hurriedly ordered the troops outside the city not to enter the city, and this is why the Japanese army dared to give such an order, and if such a situation was encountered in the national army, it would cause a mutiny.
Although the Japanese army was forced to stop under the long-term training and military discipline, this was limited to those who heard the order, and people from all over the country continued to run towards the city, and the places covered by rocket artillery were finally transferred from the various military camps outside the city to the county seat, and the first round was hit at the Japanese headquarters in the county town.
Lin Sanhu's 115th Division arrived three days in advance, and naturally did not do much homework, the detailed map of the county and the functions of each building are clear, the county is so big, there are fewer places that can be used as a headquarters, only one round of rocket artillery, and the buildings that were set as four suspicious purposes were all blown up, this time Kita Chengyi was more sad, he just entered the relatively solid money bank and was blown up, the huge explosion shock wave made him fall to the ground, he tried to open his eyes, only to see a piece of blood red, It was blood, and he looked around him, and all he felt was spinning, and then he didn't know anything.

Okamura Ninji anxiously waited for the battle report, and every ten minutes he asked a question, and the sky gradually brightened, which was logically beneficial to the Japanese army, but he looked at the sky outside, but he felt nervous and scared in his heart.
"Report! Linqu telegram. ”
Okamura Ningji didn't ask him to read it, he took it and looked at it directly, and he was anxious when he saw it, and the 14th Division actually broke through to the north.
"Yaga! The Eighth Route Army has tank troops, how many can they withdraw? Okamura Ninji threw the telegram and shouted, "Ask for the details immediately!" ”
The withdrawal has also been completed, and now I am afraid that the situation will be even worse if I ask them to go back, and Okamura Ninji can only do his best but trust the judgment and command level of the Japanese front-line commander.
Then it was an extremely long wait, and after two hours, a telegram came back, Okamura Ningji saw that it was a long telegram, he swallowed his saliva and looked at it, which said that Kita Seiichi was attacked by the heavy artillery of the Eighth Route Army, unconscious, because the county was all within the range of the heavy artillery attack of the Eighth Route Army, after being shelled for two hours, when the Eighth Route Army began to use incendiary bombs and other special bombs, it was forced to break out, and the troops had retreated to the vicinity of Longgang Town, and the losses were extremely heavy.
What he didn't know was that seeing the Japanese retreat, Lin Sanhu immediately ordered the troops to pursue, and the Eighth Route Army, which had been waiting for a long time, wore a white cloak and did not scream, so silently launched an attack, the Japanese army was frightened, and finally became a soldier, looking at the surrounding snow scene and feeling that it was the pursuing Eighth Route Army, many Japanese soldiers simply went crazy like this, Okamura Ningji covered his face, and said for a while, "Order all the troops to gather in Longgang Town, Order the 14th Division to count the losses, and I will send a telegram to Tokyo. ”
The victory of the night attack on Linqu announced that Okamura Ningji's encirclement and suppression of Shandong was completely broken by Lin Sanhu, in this battle, the 14th Division lost 9,000 people, retreated safely less than 5,000 people, and wounded another 2,000 people, without a single prisoner and seriously injured survivors, there are so many people who retreated safely because Lin Sanhu finally let go of his mouth, after a long march, the 115th Division was actually extremely tired, Lin Sanhu was unwilling to have any more big casualties, not to mention, for the 200,000 Japanese puppet army, Killing a thousand more doesn't do much.
Lin Sanhu fought for thousands of miles in this battle, successively broke through nearly 40 towns, and killed more than 30,000 Japanese puppet troops, if you count the losses of the Japanese army in the rest of the direction, the Japanese puppet army alone died more than 50,000, although the battle ended with a large loss of the base strength of the Eighth Route Army, but it also hit the Japanese army hard, laying a solid foundation for the later North China counteroffensive.
-- Tokyo
Ishihara sighed, took the flag and said to the person opposite, "In the battle of Shandong, Okamura Ningji fought a draw, which is really a pity." ”
This is Ishihara Ninji speaking for Okamura Ninji, in fact, where is it a tie, whether it is from the strategy or from the tactics, the Japanese army can be said to be a loser, but Okamura Ninji is on the throne is his own proposal with Itagaki Seishiro and others, if Okamura Ninji has a major mistake, then they will naturally have to bear joint and several responsibility, which is what Ishihara and others do not want to see.
On the opposite side is a somewhat thin middle-aged man, 40 years old this year, he naturally knows that Ishihara has said good things for Okamura Ningji, after all, he has been the emperor for more than ten years, and naturally knows that some words can be understood as long as they are understood, and there is no need to break them.
"The war in Europe is the same as you predicted, the French army has been defeated, the German army is about to destroy France with a sweeping momentum, and it is said that the British army is trying to find a way to retreat, and I don't know if it will succeed." Hirohito stopped talking about China, but turned to Europe, and then made a point.
"If the British retreat can be successful, then it will be very difficult for the German army to easily make Britain soft, but Hitler is not stupid, he will definitely find a way to break the British retreat trick." In Ishihara's eyes, Hitler was undoubtedly an extremely powerful military strategist, and he already admired him a little.
Hirohito nodded and asked, "So will the situation in Europe have an impact on us?" ”
"Naturally, there will be, just like Wechen said before, if Germany and the Soviet Union go to war, we will have to prepare to deal with the Soviet Union, and if there is a war with Britain and France, we will have to prepare to deal with Britain and France, especially in the South Seas..."
