Chapter 585: The Korean War

At this time, several divisions of the Japanese army stationed in Taiwan finally began to land in Fujian. Several division commanders gritted their teeth at Hirose Shousuke for daring to act privately!

Let them take advantage of all these benefits, what is this called?! Could it be that several of our divisions are here to make soy sauce?! Originally, they still had some hearts to find faults, but after the commander-in-chief Terauchi Shouichi spoke, this kind of thinking of finding faults was extinguished.

"In any case, Hirose-kun and Wakayama-kun have expanded the territory of the empire after all......" Looking at several division commanders, Terauchi Shouichi did not shy away from it. Directly said: "The winner, will not be blamed!" Not even His Majesty would do that! ”

The commanders of these divisions suddenly realized that although the Kwantung Army was completely annihilated, Ishihara Wan'er, who launched the 918 and achieved initial success, was reused in the military headquarters!

What's that?! As long as you have conquered the territory and won the victory, then all your actions will not be blamed! Winner, blameless!

Originally, the Kwantung Army and the 226 after the somewhat depressed downward trend slowly rose again! This trend may have been quietly promoted by the military department for its own interests.

Or maybe the militaristic ideology of the prince of the idle palace is at work, in short, these division commanders present will spread this kind of thinking. There is no doubt that this way of thinking will inevitably be carried in the Japanese army in the future......

Wakayama Zentaro was at this time with his troops to join up with Hirose Shousuke, and by telegram he already knew that now the 52nd Division had jumped out of the encirclement and Hirose Shousuke and they were in pursuit!

On the mountain, ......gunshots suddenly rang out! The search party on the mountain immediately went to the place where the gunshots rang out!

At the foot of the mountain, Hirose Shousuke commanded in a deep voice: "Let the troops not all be concentrated, so as not to fall into the enemy's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain!" The people of China are very cunning, let a squadron go over to see the situation first! ”

"Hail!!" Hirose Shousuke's adjutant replied loudly, and then went down to let the communications squad pass the order.

No, this is one of the lessons that Hirose Shousuke has learned since he landed in Fujian. When they were in Zhanggang, the Japanese army suffered this kind of loss! was transferred by Red and Huo Qingyun, and the main force jumped out of the encirclement!

Therefore, Hirose Shousuke pays great attention to this kind of action. It is required to check the situation clearly before deploying troops!

And the adjutant after passing the order. Quietly walked to Hirose Shousuke's side and said in a deep voice: "Report to the head of the division, His Excellency the head of the Wakayama division has called you!" They still have about twenty minutes to get here, and the commander of the Wakayama Division asks you how your tactics should be arranged?! ”

Ruoshan was also in a hurry, he was originally moving slowly. But after learning that the 52nd Division actually jumped out of the encirclement. He led his troops to kill urgently!

He also knew that if the 52nd Division had not been annihilated, then this military operation would not have been completed! In his opinion, this is a shame! A division was blocked by a division of no more than 4,000 people for nearly a week! This is clearly unforgivable!

Moreover, the casualties are so large, if they are transmitted back to the Japanese military headquarters, the divisions and regiments will hold it, but they may not have good fruits to eat!

"Telegraph, call the commander of the Wakayama Division, and ask him to scatter the three brigades under his command to surround this place as squadrons!" After pondering for a while, Hirose Shousuke said to his adjutant, "Don't be too far apart from the squadron and the squadron. Touch base! This force cannot be allowed to stand out from our encirclement! ”

"Hay!" The adjutant took the order, and then sent a telegram to Zentaro Wakayama. Wakayama Zentaro, who got the telegram, looked at the strategy on the telegram and nodded with satisfaction, as long as this area is surrounded, isn't it easy to kill this army?!

So he convened a military meeting without thinking about it, and asked the staff officers to draw up a blockade plan. Then let his adjutant go down with the order, and then the three brigades that came with the division were scattered!

The squadrons immediately rushed to the predetermined place - do not be surprised! Since the Japanese had already made up their minds to invade Fujian, they naturally worked tirelessly to explore the terrain here.

Even the squadron has a detailed map, and they do not get lost when they are scattered. Because of the war readiness, the division under Wakayama Zentaro was a well-established wartime division.

That is. The three wings under his command are full! There were a total of 20,000 people, and with the help of Hirose Shousuke, who entered the mountains to search, Wakayama Zentaro's troops blocked the entire mountain area in a short time!

Gunshots rang out on the hill for a while. It gradually fell silent. Then some soldiers ran back with a snort to report, and after attacking, they found that the other party was not the main force, but should be a luring force. It has now been repulsed.

Hirose Shousuke sneered and thought, fortunately, he tried it himself, otherwise he would have deceived them!

"Order the troops to continue the search! Alert! Hirose Shousuke commanded in a deep voice to his adjutant: "This army must not be allowed to stand out from our encirclement!" ”

"Hail!!"

At this time, the situation on the mountain was not good, and Ren Dehai, who fought with the detachment leader of a team for a while, quickly discovered that this was not the main force of the Japanese army! But they were followed by heavy machine-gun and artillery units of the Japanese army!

If he held on, he could only get heavy casualties, so under his persuasion, the captain finally chose to let the troops withdraw. Before coming, Ye Xiping had also fought with a captain, Ren Dehai and others had fought with the Japanese troops face to face.

You can listen to him more in case of trouble, and since the veteran has made a judgment, the captain chose to evacuate. Then through the movement of the range shook off the Japanese troops who were trying to follow them.

Then a messenger was dispatched to report the battle situation here to Ye Xiping.

Ye Xiping, who got the information, squatted by the tree and smoked a cigarette without saying a word, and the soldiers of the Wehrmacht who went out to investigate just now reported that a large number of Japanese troops had entered the mountains!

And they should have a detailed map, and several points have been blocked by them! And their current tactics are somewhat similar to the iron-arm encirclement policy of the Nanjing government.

The points are not far apart. Once attacked, other points will pounce! Then surround and annihilate the attacking forces!

Ye Xiping knew that it was now because it was dark and the Japanese army could not attack. Once it is dawn, the Japanese army will definitely start a war without hesitation!

With the strength, firepower and quality of the Japanese army, once the army in his hands is surrounded, the consequences can be imagined!

Fight, it is definitely going to fight. But how to fight and how to save yourself from the encirclement has become a problem that Ye Xiping is facing now.

"Old leaves. Don't be embarrassed! Lu Xingrong, who had recovered his spirits, walked to Ye Xiping's side and said in a deep voice: "You can take ten soldiers of my 52nd Division to stand out!" I'll cover you up with the others! ”

"Cover a ball!" Lao Ye smashed the cigarette in his hand on the ground, and shouted at Lu Xingrong: "Don't think that you Lao Lu is not afraid of death." We are not afraid of death! Afraid of death, we will do it against Nanjing! ”

Then, Ye Xiping took a deep breath and said to Lu Xingrong: "It's really not good, I'll divide half of my troops to attract the attention of the Japanese army!" You take the opportunity to break through! ”

"Old Ye! You're not a bastard, I'm just it?! Lu Xingrong was also angry! said to Ye Xiping: "Lao Tzu's fifty-second division has fought until now. There is no man who doesn't have a handle! Let you desperately let us go?! I can't do this! ”

Ye Xiping stopped talking, squatted down and smoked a cigarette. At this time, Huo Qingyun quietly walked to the two of them and whispered, "Both of you, don't quarrel." Don't forget our commander-in-chief......"

Ye Xiping and Lu Xingrong immediately gave Huo Qingyun a roll of his eyes, yes! We all know that your Wehrmacht can fight, but now the Wehrmacht is 108,000 miles away from Fujian!

Can they still fly over to support us in the fight?! Huo Qingyun also understood the eyes of the two, and said softly with a faint smile: "The commander-in-chief's father." That is, the commander-in-chief of the Korean Theater of our National Defense Forces, Pao Ye, has just sent a message. He surrounded the 5th and 6th divisions of the Japanese army......"

Hearing Huo Qingyun's words, the two of them glanced at each other and couldn't help but "grunt~" and swallowed a mouthful of saliva! They are all people who have fought with the Japanese army, so they naturally know how effective the Japanese army is!

The two divisions that landed this are still the ones that didn't carry many heavy weapons! The Red and Fifty-second Divisions were not only prepared, but also mentally calculated.

Even so, they were beaten by chickens and dogs! But the Wehrmacht is good, launching an offensive later than them, and the offensive is progressing faster than them! That's just a little bit older. , it turned out that two divisions of the Japanese army had already been surrounded!

"Another division that came here, the cannon master is also calculating......" Huo Qingyun seemed to be about to swear without surprise. Facing the two of them, he said faintly: "Master Pao just sent a telegram, if the Japanese dare to come, he will burn the flags of the three divisions to us......"

Now the two of them were directly stunned! Good fellow, this is the tiger's father! The father and son look violent. This old man actually wants to burn the military flags of three divisions and regiments for them in one go!

Just this domineering, whether it is Nanjing Guofu or red, it is unforgettable!

At this time, Tu Sanpao, who was speaking domineeringly in North Korea, was looking at the map with black circles under his eyes and asking questions to several army commanders around him.

"Has the 11th Army been positioned?!" With Tu Sancang's questioning, an adjutant on the side quickly stood up and answered loudly: "Just now, Han Weiyi, the commander of the Eleventh Army, sent a telegram that they have arrived at the designated position!" ”

"Did the 33rd and 34th Divisions arrive at the position?!" Tu San didn't raise his head, and directly continued to ask: "There is also a cavalry division!" They are the top priority of the siege! ”

"Senior Commander Gao Xuan and Senior Jiang Wende are calling! They have arrived at the designated location and have made preliminary preparations for the temporary fortifications! After a pause, the adjutant continued: "Yu Lixuan, the commander of the cavalry division directly under the legion, called, and they have also arrived at the position!" ”

"What about the Air Force?!" Looking at the map, Tu Sancang continued to ask.

"Division Commander Gao Zhihang called just now. The last batch of supplies has been airdropped! The adjutant opened his notepad and said in a deep voice to Tu Sanpao: "Commander Chen Haihua also called, more than 600 fighters of the entire air force are already on standby in Dandong!" ”

"Smack!" Tu Sancang smashed the pencil directly on the table, turned to the adjutant and said, "Okay! Tell the troops ahead! Start a general offensive against the Japanese army! Inform Gao Xuan and Jiang Wende! They must give me support to withstand the Japanese army! ”

"Tell Chen Haihua! His air force is on standby, ready to take to the skies! Han Weiyi told him that if the Japanese reinforcements came. He couldn't stop the back road, and wiped Lao Tzu's neck by himself! ”

"Yes!!" The adjutant replied loudly, and then went down to generate electricity.

The plan of Tu San Artillery was not complicated, but it was just to seize the points of the two divisions and then cut off the back road interspersed! Surround them and force the Japanese army to support!

The Eleventh Army, on the other hand, let go of the troops that came to support them on the road, and then surround the last support troops when they start a battle with the two divisions that surrounded the Japanese division!

This is not a big deal! It can even be a little arrogant!

Although the two divisions of the Japanese army were weak, they still had more than 20,000 combat strength after all! Moreover, there are more than 10,000 Korean troops in the servants, which adds up to nearly 40,000 troops!

The Japanese troops who came to support them are definitely not good at stubble! Whether the 33rd and 34th divisions could withstand the flanking attack of others was the most important question.

But. Obviously, Tu Sanpao is quite confident in this! The reason for his self-confidence lies in the fact that he quietly came to the "Tiger I" tank on the Korean battlefield!

This time, it was 33 temporary tank battalions led by Zhu Zhong! Their aim was to test the performance of the Wehrmacht's new Tiger I tank on the battlefield with the help of the battlefield.

Although everyone from the Germans to the designers of the three eastern provinces to Eisenhower and others thought that the Tiger I was perfect. But this perfection needs to be tested on the battlefield. There are no weapons that have experienced war, and there are no real combat results that can be determined for him.

So, Zhu Zhong came to this battlefield with his tank battalion! And Tu Sancang was not ambiguous, he decided to let Zhu Zhong do the charge of the decisive battle! The first is to test the combat capabilities of the tank.

Actually, such a good meat shield doesn't have to use the lives of soldiers to fill the position?! Fools do it!

At ten o'clock in the morning, when people were most physically sleepy, the Wehrmacht suddenly launched an attack on the Japanese positions! The attack did not retreat from the usual artillery blast or charge.

This offensive. The Wehrmacht was fully prepared for more than a bombardment of hundreds of artillery pieces! The entire Japanese army's position shook one by one, and the tunnels, which were not very reliable, were torn apart by the bombardment!

"Boom! Rumble!! Boom ......" The roar of the heavy artillery woke up Shiro Inaba and Lin Gui who were sleeping! The two hurriedly put on their military uniforms and ran to the headquarters.

There, they met each other, pale-faced and a bunch of busy Japanese staff officers.

They are all old people who have fought in the war, how can they not hear that there are hundreds of artillery pieces in this shelling of the Wehrmacht?! Hundreds of artillery pieces were used, what does this clear?! The Ming family is going to attack!

Lin Gui and Inaba Shiro glanced at each other, they knew that this time the Wehrmacht was probably playing with their lives! So they all gave an order to the adjutant next to him!

"Quick!! Contact Han Dynasty! Your Excellency the Commander-in-Chief for tactical guidance!! "After the roar. Lin Gui took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "The Wehrmacht has dispatched hundreds of artillery pieces this time!" If Your Excellency the Commander has no support, then our Imperial Warriors will be here to be loyal to Your Majesty!! ”

"Hay!" The adjutant also knew the seriousness of the matter, and under the roar of artillery, he rushed out of the headquarters like a gust of wind and asked the telecommunications office to quickly send a power to Seoul!

The rumbling of cannon fire continued. This made the faces of the two of them even paler! Lin Gui raised his wrist tremblingly, from the time he heard the cannon sound to now, it was estimated that it had been nearly half an hour!

The sound of the cannon has not stopped! What is this concept?! Hundreds of artillery pieces, half an hour of shelling can almost turn over the soil of a county town! The situation on those positions can be imagined!

Finally, the shelling stopped. Lin Gui and Inaba Shiro finally breathed a sigh of relief! But his face sank, how much combat strength could the Japanese army have under such an artillery bombardment?! And those North Korean soldiers who brought in!

Those people are basically the quality of the militia regiment of the Nanjing State Government, how much combat effectiveness can they have under the powerful artillery bombardment of the regular army?!

"Wehrmacht! Kill!! "At this time, the battle cry peculiar to the Wehrmacht came from the distant positions! This kind of slogan, Lin Gui has heard countless times in these days!

Every time this slogan is shouted. Then it will represent a large area of casualties of the Japanese army! But the Wehrmacht has never shouted this slogan as soon as a war began, what is going on?!

Without waiting for the two to figure it out, the adjutant ran into the headquarters with a pale face and shouted to the two: "Your Excellency the division commander! Oh no, the Wehrmacht sent tank units to assist in the attack! ”

The faces of the two of them turned white as soon as they "brushed~"! During this time, the two sides did not touch the tank forces to fight. The Wehrmacht was because it took time to bring tanks from Mongolia, and the Japanese because they only had a dozen tanks!

These more than ten vehicles are still specially supporting them. Until the end, they were reluctant to use these tanks. Japan itself is short of oil, and North Korea is unlikely to support too much oil. But without fuel, the tank is basically a live target!

"Inform Captain Kawasaki! Let his tank units be dispatched immediately, and the tank units of the Wehrmacht must be held up! Lin Gui took a deep breath, and Shiro Inaba had the same opinion as Lin Gui. Immediately send tank troops.

It's a pity that they didn't know that their tanks were nothing more than living targets in front of the Wehrmacht! How can the old Renault tank compare with the heavy tanks developed by the Wehrmacht?!

Don't be simplified and optimized to copy the Type 59 tank! Even the T-34 can completely blow up these old-fashioned things of the Japanese army!

It's a pity that the captain of the Japanese tank's tank unit, Kawasaki Nakasa, didn't see it that way! His face flushed with excitement because he was able to step onto the battlefield, and in his opinion, what decent tank troops could the Wehrmacht have?! In front of the chariots of the Empire, they are nothing more than a pile of large scrap metal! (To be continued)
