More than a dozen soldiers of the nearby guard battalion immediately raised their weapons and followed Zheng Yunshan to fire fiercely in one direction, among them were two MG34 general-purpose machine guns, and the others were all MP38 submachine guns.

Da Da Da ...... Da Da Da ...... Although he could not see the exact location of the target, the dense bullets made up for the lack of accuracy, and a large number of bullets poured out, several of which went down the firing hole and into the Devil's fire bunker, killing the two Devil Machine Gunners on the spot.

Two heavy machine guns were missing, and the devil's firepower was suddenly sharply reduced, Zheng Yunshan and they were able to get a precious respite, and more than a dozen people took the opportunity to rush into two craters with residual temperature, and lay dead inside.

At this time, the machine gunner of the devil was replaced, and the intermittent fire and strafing resumed, and suddenly ...... A large number of bullets rained down.

Whistling over the crater where Zheng Yunshan was hiding.

Temporarily suppressed more than a dozen of them, Zheng Yunshan looked back at his subordinates who were still following up, immediately waved at them, and shouted at the top of his throat: "Lie down, lie down, call for tank artillery support, and collapse that firepower point for Lao Tzu!" ”

The soldiers who followed up looked for suitable cover on the spot, lay down, and temporarily stopped advancing, and their own fighters bent back and found their own tank and combat vehicles that were slowly advancing forward and firing at some exposed devil strongholds from time to time.

Soon, a No. 4 tank got the news and roared towards Zheng Yunshan and them, and found the fire point that was still suppressing Zheng Yunshan and other officers and soldiers, and kept firing wildly.

Several dragon tooth tankmen in the tank gritted their teeth and quickly adjusted the firing angle, the thick barrel moved slowly, and the black muzzle was quickly aimed at the target.

"Boom!" With a muffled sound, a high-explosive armor-piercing bullet rushed out of the barrel with a long flaming red tail flame, and flew straight to the devil's fire point.

"Boom!" There was a violent explosion, and the firepower point that was still wildly strafing just now was pierced through the wall by a high-explosive armor-piercing bullet, and the entire explosion was torn apart, and all the devils inside were killed in an instant.

"Brothers, come with me!" Seeing this, Zheng Yunshan immediately stood up, shouted sharply with the submachine gun in his hand, jumped out of the crater, and took the lead in rushing out.

In this way, under the cover and clearance of the precise fixed-point fire of the four tank fighting vehicles, the guard battalion was able to quickly advance in the depth of the devil's defense.

All the way was like a bamboo, with the momentum of destroying the ancient era, tearing apart the defense line of the defenders of Cheng'an Town on the north bank of the Shahe River, and completely defeating them step by step!

At the same time, in Dingzhou County, about 3,000 devils and thousands of puppet troops stationed around the county have been ordered to mobilize one after another and hurry in the direction of Cheng'an Town.

The telegrams for help from the defenders on the front line in Cheng'an Town were sent one after another, and each one was more urgent than the other, which made the Japanese commander in Dingzhou dare not slack off.

Beiping City, the headquarters of the North China Front of the Japanese invasion of China.

Sugiyama Moto, Kawabe Shozo, and a group of high-ranking officers and staff officers, who received the news, gathered together to have a heated discussion on the matter.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the news has been told to you, what do you think about it?" Sugiyama Moto's eyes swept over the subordinates solemnly and asked.

The high-ranking officers of the devils exchanged heads and talked about each other, but none of them responded positively to Sugiyama Yuan's questioning, for no other reason, they were not at all able to imagine that it had only been less than half a year since the encirclement and suppression had been stopped, how could the Dragon's Tooth Column have powerful tanks and mysterious artillery?

How appalling is that it can be used to defeat the permanent fortifications that the Imperial Army has worked so hard to build, and how can the Imperial Army of Great Japan be mixed up if they continue to develop like this?

Kawabe Shozo frowned and pondered for a while before he said to Sugiyama Moto: "Your Excellency, General, I guess that the reason why the people of China were able to have tanks and combat vehicles and mysterious artillery could it be related to the incident in Linhai Town before?" ”

"You mean, the tanks and combat vehicles that Qiao Youhua's team is equipped with are Germans?" Sugiyama asked.

"This should be unlikely, the Germans could not have ventured thousands of miles to transport tanks to North China, and the Reich's naval blockade forces would not have been unaware.

To be precise, it should be the production machines and equipment that the Germans brought to Qiao Youhua, and even the engineers and workers, these tanks were produced by the people of China themselves, and only in this way can it be clearly explained the source of the tanks of the Dragon's Tooth Column. "There are three roads by the river.

Sugiyama Yuan's expression was silent, and he raised his head for a while and said: "Hebian-kun, you are the chief of staff of my North China Front Army, and the development of the Longya Column is getting stronger and stronger, and if it continues like this, it will be very disadvantageous to us!" Do you have any good ways to contain it? ”

Kawabe Shozo stubbornly said: "Sir, please forgive me for my incompetence, the entire Imperial Army has just experienced two years of frontal battlefield attacks, and has engaged in dozens of frontal battles with the regular army of China.

Coupled with the continuous attacks and sabotage of the Eighth Route Army and other anti-Japanese forces behind enemy lines, our vitality has been greatly damaged, especially the consumption of national strength, and our North China Army has also suffered heavy losses in several previous battles with the Dragon's Tooth Column, as you know these generals.

In a short period of time, the empire itself was unable to replenish our armed forces and provide reinforcements, and our actual situation now is that self-protection is still insufficient, how can we have the spare strength to encircle and suppress the Dragon's Tooth Column.

Unless ......"

Kawabe Shozomi saw Sugiyama Moto's face full of disappointment and frustration when he heard his words, so he thought of a solution that was not a solution.

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Sugiyama Moto, who had grabbed a life-saving straw, and asked, "Unless what?" Speak quickly by the river! ”

Sugiyama Yuan, who is already in his sixties, is already about to be tortured by Qiao Youhua's dragon tooth column at this moment, because Qiao Youhua's appearance is too dazzling, which makes the Japanese army tricky, and it is not easy for him to be the commander of the front army!

"Unless, the commander can request the base camp to approve the Kwantung Army's entry into the customs!" Kawabe Shozo glanced at Sugiyama Moto's straight to the point.

"Nani, the Kwantung Army has entered the customs?" Sugiyama Mototoyama was taken aback, and it was obvious that he hadn't thought about it at all.

The other devil officers and staff officers present were also quite surprised, and everyone knew that the Kwantung Army was a group directly under the base camp that was established before the North China Front Army, and since Manchuria was connected to the Goryeo Peninsula, the Japanese base camp attached great importance to it.

Therefore, in a certain sense, the position of the Kwantung Army is more important than that of the North China Front and the Central China Front.

"That's right, it is the Kwantung Army that entered the customs, and now the Kwantung Army has no less than ten divisions and regiments, and it is still increasing, in addition, there are a large number of Manchukuo Emperor's Cooperative Army, and the strength of the army is far better than our North China Front Army and Central China Dispatch Army.

As long as the base camp is willing to transfer the elite of the Kwantung Army into the pass, we can send the 26th Division of the Mongolian Army to the east and unite with the garrisons in the surrounding areas of the Longya Column, so that we can launch another large-scale encirclement and suppression of the Longya Column.

The most important thing is that the 1st Division under the Kwantung Army was the first real mechanized division in the Empire, and it was equipped with a large number of tanks and armored vehicles, as well as various artillery and anti-tank weapons.

If this division can also participate in the battle, we don't have to be afraid of a few tanks under Qiao Youhua, and only in this way can we strangle the increasingly dangerous dragon's tooth column before it grows.

Eliminate the possibility of them becoming the Empire's biggest henchmen in China! "The riverside is three positive colors.

Kawabe Shozo's analysis resonated with the other devil officers and staff officers present, and they nodded their heads one after another.

Then, all eyes looked at their big man, Sugiyama Moto.

Sugiyama Mototo was also moved by Kawabe Shozo's analysis, but he also understood that it was definitely not easy to make the base camp believe in the danger of Qiao Youhua's department, and face it squarely, and agree to transfer the Kwantung Army into the customs to fight.

Because Manchuria, where the Kwantung Army was stationed, was not only connected to the Goryeo Peninsula, but also bordered by the equally ferocious polar bears.

It has only been many years since the Russo-Japanese War, and Lao Maozi, who has grown a lot, has always wanted to avenge the revenge of the Liaodong Peninsula that year.

Therefore, Sugiyama Gen knew that the Kwantung Army did not have any war on the surface, and in fact it had to maintain a high level of vigilance against the Soviets, just in case.

After all, for the Japanese Empire, it would rather lose Guannai and Jiangnan than lose the four provinces of Manchuria, which are connected to the Goryeo Peninsula.

However, despite understanding the difficulties and having no better options, Sugiyama Moto, decided to try his best, so next, he adopted Kawabe Shozo's Jianyì and personally sent a request telegram to his boss at the War Department, some officers who were already familiar with the General Staff Headquarters of the base camp.

Among them is the famous imperial general who planned the 918 Incident that year, and the current deputy director of the General Staff Headquarters, Ishihara Waner.

In the message, Sugiyama elaborated on the pros and cons, and even exaggerated the combat effectiveness of the Dragon's Tooth Column and the dangers it bringed!

In practice, Sugiyama Motoya immediately ordered Tokugawa Yoshitoshi's 3rd Flying Corps to immediately take off a batch of fighters and several bombers from Baoding, and quickly flew to Dingzhou and Cheng'an to participate in the battle and provide support to his ground forces!

…………

Before the devil's plane arrived, on the side of Cheng'an Town, Liu Yidao, deputy commander of the first regiment, and Scarface, the commander of the first battalion, led hundreds of elite officers and soldiers of the first battalion to take advantage of the fierce battle on the north bank of the Shahe Bridge.

Quietly came to the outside of Cheng'an Town, as Qiao Youhua predicted, the devils and puppet troops in Cheng'an Town have all been attracted by the frontal attack of the guard battalion, and the elite troops have poured out, and the total number of troops left in the town is less than 100 people, and they are all old, weak, disabled and wounded.

The opportunity is rare, Liu Yidao and Scarface will certainly not be merciful, and immediately personally lead the soldiers under their command to launch a cluster charge towards the town!
