As soon as Okamura Ninji's voice fell, Mamoru Iizawa said: "By the way, sir, when you went to the Navy Fleet Headquarters just now, our confidential room received three urgent telegrams from the Jinghai Garrison Command in a row, and the content was basically the same, all of them were urgent requests for help.

According to the telegram, the field defense line outside the county town of Jinghai was on the verge of collapse and loss under the continuous joint onslaught of the infantry and tans of the Zhina Army, and the defenders of the imperial army suffered heavy casualties and a serious shortage of troops, and the situation was already very critical. ”

Okamura Ninji nodded, continued to smoke and said: "I have ordered the three thousand infantry stationed in Tianjin to rush to Jinghai to support urgently, and dozens of fighters of the sea-based air force have taken off, I believe that this will have reached the sky over Jinghai, with this batch of air support, it should be able to slightly curb the offensive of the Shimochina Army, and win some respite for the defenders of the Jinghai Imperial Army, and it should not be a problem to hold on until the arrival of three thousand reinforcements." ”

Iizawa Shou said: "That's good, the 100,000 soldiers and civilians we withdrew from Beiping have now passed through Tongzhou and are retreating to the Tangshan area, fortunately, the Chinese army was busy capturing Beiping City, and did not divide the troops to pursue the retreating military and civilian crowd of the imperial army, otherwise, the consequences are really unimaginable." ”

"That's good, as long as they withdraw to Tangshan safely, then they can take the train, evacuate to Guanwai or return to China to go to other places, and then we will have no worries, and we can let go with the Chinese army in Pingjin and compete." Okamura Ninji was in a slightly better mood.

However, at this moment, a confidential staff officer hurriedly broke into the conference room of the two, and hurriedly saluted Okamura Ningji: "General, something is wrong, there is an urgent news from our reconnaissance troops in the Langfang area, they found that the tank and armored unit of the China Army that captured Langfang suddenly left Langfang not long ago and went straight to Tianjin along the railway line. ”

Okamura Ninji and Iizawa Mamoru both had a big change in their faces, and the half of the cigarette in the former's hand was even more pinched off because of the vain exertion of his fingers, and the cigarette butt fell on the floor of the conference room, splashing a spark.

Okamura Ninji stood up suddenly, Iizawa Mamoru looked at him, only to see Okamura Ninji frowning, his face became extremely solemn, and he asked tentatively at the moment: "General, what should we do?" The size of this tank and armored unit of the Chinese Army is at least about one brigade, and its combat strength is not to mention that if they attack with all their might, we will send all the 30,000 new troops on the outskirts of Tianjin who are rushing to repair the fortifications, and they may not be able to resist it, let alone win the battle.

The most important thing is that the Jinghai army has also strengthened the offensive in vain, and now combined with the breakthrough of the armored force in Langfang, the intention of the Chinese army is very obvious, and it will not prepare us to hold Tianjin. ”

Okamura Ninji didn't know this, hearing what Mamoru Iizawa said, his already very solemn mood became even more depressed, and he took out a cigarette from his body and lit it again.

For a while, Okamura Ninji was surrounded by smoke, and the atmosphere in the conference room was extremely depressing, and after a long time, Okamura Ninji spoke up: "Order the new army on the periphery, immediately send out capable troops to destroy the railways, highways and bridges along the way that the tank and armored forces of China must pass through to advance eastward, and delay the enemy's offensive as much as possible."

In addition, the telegraph ordered all squadrons of the land-based air force directly under the North China Front Army to take off immediately after completing the replenishment of fuel and ammunition, and to go all out to bomb the tank unit of the Chinese tank unit that had invaded Tianjin, and to cooperate with the ground troops to resist step by step.

The task of air support for Jinghai was entrusted to the sea-based aviation units. ”

…………

In Jinghai County, the battle in the south of the city was raging, and the offensive of the Second Division of Longya had not stopped since the morning.

Even in the face of the most stubborn resistance of the Japanese puppet army, the first wave of attacking troops suffered heavy casualties and was forced to withdraw, and then the second group of infantry immediately replenished and continued to launch a fierce attack on the enemy position in turn with the cooperation of tanks and artillery.

Although the Japanese puppet army resisted with all its might, it did not have an advantage in firepower and troops, and suffered heavy casualties under the repeated attacks of the dragon's tooth column, and its front-line trenches were attacked by the second division, and broke through three lines in succession.

Up to now, there is only one trench left by the Japanese army outside the city, and this one is still preserved because of its proximity to the city wall, which can echo the defenders on the city wall and respond to each other.

Otherwise, it would have been captured by the Dragon's Tooth Column a long time ago.

Anbei Jinsan, a devil soldier, was also fatal, and he lost three lines of defense in a row, and he escaped at a critical moment, but he added a few new non-fatal injuries.

Now, Anbei Jinsan's wounds have been bandaged with bandages by the fire line health soldiers, this guy is covered with bandages, but he is still lying in the trench with a gun in his hand, and he is strong and shoots outward.

By the time the battle had been fought, he had no strength to fear, and had completely turned into a war machine, repeating the actions of reloading, aiming, shooting, and shooting, shooting as many dragon-tooth soldiers as possible who were scrambling to charge towards their trenches.

However, the offensive of the Dragon's Tooth Column was not hindered in any way, but became more and more fierce like a tide, and in the fierce battle, a bullet fired from nowhere came from nowhere, whistling and hitting the brain of Shinzo Anbei, who was lying in the fortifications and shooting stubbornly, this is a shot of caliber 7. 92mm German Mauser rifle cartridge.

After the bullet was fired into the head of Shinzo Anbei, it caused a violent tumbling, instantly shattering his brain tissue into a puddle of debris, directly taking his life.

An Beijin felt that he was gradually swallowed up by the endless darkness until his consciousness was completely annihilated.

The attacking troops of the Second Division of the Dragon's Tooth, with their skillful tactical cooperation and absolute weapon firepower superiority, suppressed the blocking fire of the devils and the puppet army little by little, and the infantry swarmed in, just as they were about to break through the last line of defense of the devils in one fell swoop.

A group of Japanese fighters suddenly appeared in the sky, which was a group of enemy sea-based air planes that had just arrived, and when they arrived, they immediately quickly swooped down from a high altitude, and their machine guns and airborne machine guns opened fire fiercely, bursting out one after another dazzling tongues of fire, and a large number of scorching bullets rained down like locusts, pouring down towards the attacking troops of the Second Division that were charging.

The charging Dragon's Tooth infantry were caught off guard, and they fell in droves in pools of blood.

And just when the Japanese puppet army at the head of the city was cheering for the arrival of their air support, on the sortie position of the second division, dozens of anti-aircraft guns that had been in ambush for a long time suddenly took off their camouflage, revealing a hideous breeched muzzle, with an officer's order.

The anti-aircraft weapons landed in full fire, firing heavily at the group of enemy planes that were diving down.

Bang bang bang...... One after another, the high-explosive shells were fired by the 88mm anti-aircraft guns, and when they exploded, they were a large area, and the intensive strafing of the anti-aircraft machine guns formed an impermeable anti-aircraft fire network, which dealt a fierce blow to the Japanese planes that were diving and strafing.

It turned out that the infantry attacked with all their strength and secretly deployed the air defense regiment, waiting for the devil to be unable to withstand the pressure and called for air support, and the air defense regiment suddenly opened fire, inflicting a heavy blow on the enemy's air attack troops! This is the plan that Ma Biao and his subordinates discussed in advance.

However, after the offensive began, the attacking troops went very smoothly, and Ma Biao took advantage of the situation to order the attacking troops to continue the attack, and the air defense regiment and other troops acted according to the original plan, until the first company broke through the enemy's three defense lines, and the devil air force was late, but it did not hinder the heavy attack of the air defense unit of the second division of Longya!
