By the time Huang Baitao moved, Zhao Liqiang's army had already launched an attack on Qingdao.

Before the battle began, helicopters had already launched an air raid on military facilities in Qingdao. The clumsy petrol bombs used to blow up cargo ships came in handy at this meeting, and the oil drums containing small bombs were thrown in the air, and the fire instantly covered all the positions left by the Japanese army.

The raging fire was about to spread from the sky, turning the anti-aircraft artillery, the outer defensive positions, the artillery positions, and the harbor into a sea of fire.

The Japanese army can still prevent one or two bombings, but it will be very difficult to burn, no matter how to defend it. On the anti-aircraft artillery position, the anti-aircraft artillery and anti-aircraft machine guns had just shot down two helicopters, and when they themselves were also being strafed and bombarded by machine guns, a helicopter with a slight size and different appearance appeared in their sight, followed by a second one. The third.

As soon as these planes appeared, the dense rain of bullets almost instantly annihilated the anti-aircraft artillery positions, and the terrifying hum could be clearly heard in the roar of the motors, and the dense rain of bullets was like a salvo of hundreds of machine guns, which was simply impenetrable.

Whether it was a man or an anti-aircraft machine gun, under the dense rain of bullets, they were shattered one after another, debris and dust, and blood mist flew all over the sky, and people were hit without even having a chance to scream, they were broken into pieces.

The ferocious blow was seen by the surviving Japanese soldiers, which were caused by the half-foot machine guns that spewed out of the hatches on both sides of the plane, and they knew that the kind of guns they called the Vulcan Cannon or the Grimm Machine Gun, or Gatling. This gun was carried into the air and was able to move, it was simply an artifact. What to block the ground?

But their shock was not over, as bombs drifted out of the planes without whistling sound.

"What's that? Bomb?!! ”

All the stalls where the Japanese army was hiding, and they didn't forget to know what fell from the sky.

The things fell several times very quickly, and under the gaze of the Japanese troops who were not attacked in the distance, they quickly touched the ground, and then the light suddenly bloomed. With a small explosion, a cloud of fire suddenly appeared and flew in all directions like a fireflower.

The height at which the fire cloud appeared was only twenty or thirty meters above the ground, and with its own falling speed, it landed on the building and the person almost instantly.

Wherever they landed, they burned fiercely, whether on stones, on the roofs of houses, or on people. are capable of burning violently.

These flames were extremely difficult to extinguish, very adhesive, and had a very strong self-inflammatory power, and in a short instant, they ignited the surrounding combustible items, and in the miserable howl of the Japanese army, the fire formed.

On the forward positions, the density of "bombs" is much greater than in the cities. It rained down in the sky, falling with the clouds of fire. There are even those that do not explode in the air and land directly.

Whether the Japanese troops on the position were in the trenches or in the anti-artillery holes, they all felt a scorching wave coming from the surface, and there was a strong sense of suffocation. There was a fiery red in front of them, and in an instant, they were wrapped in flames, and in a short scorching suffocation, they were cremated.

on the position. The flames rose into the sky, and the defense, of course, was not there at this moment, and being able to survive in the sea of fire was already burning high incense, and the defense was nonsense.

On the wharf, the freighters that had not yet left, waiting to pick up Jinan and evacuate the Japanese troops after the most Lu were hit by helicopter machine guns, and in the ensuing flames, one by one turned into fireboats.

There were not many Japanese troops left, and in this fierce flame, the resistance collapsed in an instant. They are not without the courage to fight, and in the face of irresistible flames, even the strongest warriors in the world will retreat. After all, such a death is worthless

Zhao Liqiang has been close to 20 kilometers in the air raid, and he has no trouble to get a few small places along the way, and even a few places, after the machine gun fire, the Japanese army hid in the house and fired back, they did not have a reason to stop, so the smoke and dust rolled straight to Qingdao to pounce, the action was so fast, so that the Japanese army did not have time to evacuate. As for resistance, in the case of the most rearguard line left behind on the periphery was breached, they had already given up resistance, the army had withdrawn, what else to resist?

Zhao Liqiang attacked Qingdao, but did not even meet resistance, and after opening the way with artillery bombardment in the sea of fire, Qingdao was recaptured.

To recover Qingdao, Zhao Liqiang did not stay to rectify, he sent a telegram to Lao Zhao, let him quickly platoon the troops to take over, let the local underground workers participate in the takeover, he only left a battalion to guard some of the materials abandoned by the Japanese army and did not have time to take away, and the army wandered around Qingdao and went straight to Yantai.

Huang Baitao's movements were fast, but he was far from being as fast as the mechanized force, and when he was still crossing the river, Zhao Liqiang had already rushed to Yantai, and sent a division to meet the retreating Japanese army in Jinan, and the Japanese army with more than one brigade.

Old Zhao Zhilu Dao's advance army had strong combat effectiveness, but he was still halfway, and Zhao Liqiang's baggage troops had been diverted and went straight to the Jiaozhou Peninsula. While he was impressed, he also accelerated the speed of his march.

Eating the Japanese troops withdrawn from Jinan is the only thing Zhao Liqiang has to do now. As for those ports, there were not too many Japanese troops anymore, and he was just carrying out Dong Ku's order to assist Lao Zhao in taking Shandong and withdrawing to Shanghai as soon as possible.

This battle is only interesting for the brigade, and it can also give his long-trained soldiers a sense of war.

By the time he attacked Weihai, Yantai, Xing Yuan's army had already launched an attack on Dalian.

The overwhelming air-raids were the prelude to his attack, but he strictly ordered that he should not drop bombs, especially the earth-made incendiary bombs that could destroy everything. After being burned by the fire, there is no hair left, and he still cleans up the battlefield?

All the helicopters spewed tongues of fire and swept away the few remaining air defense facilities in Dalian, and the Japanese troops on the positions were crushed in the trenches and could not even lift their heads, and they were killed from time to time.

These Japanese soldiers already knew that it was okay to escape, and they were all desperate, even if there were no air defense weapons, those guys in the position where they were not shot were all holding 38 big covers, banging at the plane, although they couldn't fight, but they wouldn't stop fighting, all they could do was fight.

The air raid of the aircraft was only a prelude, there was no air defense. Without artillery, this world is the armored world world.

The tank army rushed into the city of Dalian like a torrent of snow and fog that burst the embankment, and then engaged in a fierce battle with the Japanese troops who had built positions in the streets.

It has been attacked several times and is in dilapidation. The supplies were burned, and it was difficult for the Japanese army to even the most basic supplies, and it was difficult to organize human bombs to intercept them, although it was useless, but it was the only way they could stop the tanks at the moment.

In the armored car, the anti-aircraft gun will simply get out of the armored car and shoot wildly from behind the shield into the street. Those huge bullets tore all the enemies in their path apart, and the bunkers were destroyed by the bullets without shelling. Along the way, there were no Japanese troops who were able to hold out for a few seconds in the rain of bullets.

The Japanese army is desperate. But in the face of hundreds of anti-aircraft machine guns and thousands of heavy machine guns, their resistance is a young man. Machine guns on tanks and armoured vehicles were fired, and all the resistance was lost.

This is not a battle, this is a massacre, the slaughter of Chiguoguo. In the face of the torrent of steel, how can the flesh resist it? Although the Japanese army was in ruins, it also had to be capable. Dalian's strangulation didn't even last twenty minutes, and Dalian was highlighted in Han Jie's troops. When the attack on Lushun was made, the battle was nearing its end.

Meng Zhaocheng left two reinforced regiments to continue to clean up the scattered Japanese troops, clean up supplies, weapons and ammunition, and he followed closely behind and went straight to Lushun.

Since the beginning of the war, speed has been one thing. The resistance was not too great, only Changchun's defense line made him feel a little pressure, but it was quickly resolved. So, he's going to fight, he's going to make those recruits grow. Instead of facing the lure of gold and silver on the battlefield cleaning. Confuse.

The speed of the advance army's attack made the Japanese top brass completely lose confidence in confrontation. The opponent is fighting on multiple fronts, and it is actually the same mechanical unit in every direction. They all have an air power that is difficult to resist, and they all have tanks and armored vehicles that are difficult to gnaw and have powerful firepower, and the armored vehicles that can carry infantry that they only figured out later. These are all things that they can't achieve with their skills, and they can't fight against them. Even individual soldiers, their weapons looked so primitive in front of the advance army.

It was only because of this that when the advance army counterattacked, they gave up resistance, adopted the strategy of preserving strength, and gave up the place they had worked so hard to manage, in order to make a comeback.

The most critical point is that the information displayed by these multi-way offensive combined digital locks shows that they are no longer the opponents of the advance army, and the number of tanks and armored vehicles owned by the advance army, as well as self-propelled artillery, and the number of aircraft, is no longer the height they can hit.

In fact, it was also true, the rolling torrent of steel was immobile in the face of their anti-tank guns, and the shells fell on the tanks and could not penetrate the armor at all.

Moreover, the attack of several teams also showed that looking at the strength of the advance army, regardless of the difference in weapons, the wrong strength has far exceeded the number they can defeat. They knew that there was a lion guarding the border with the bearded man, otherwise a fire in the backyard would definitely happen.

This shows that the number of the advance army has reached one million, or more, which is more than twice the number of their troops, and naturally they cannot compete with an enemy whose weapons are more advanced than them.

Lushun, less than forty kilometers from Dalian, the battle here is not over, there are still sporadic gunfire, and the battle of Lushun has begun.

The craziest thing about being hungry is that the tactics are changeable and more flexible, but this time his attack was not fancy, and under the absolute crushing strength, the armored troops that followed after the air raid were disabled for more than ten minutes and rushed into Arthur and launched a fierce street battle.

Continuous air raids, the spread of the war, as early as the night, the people of Lushun fled and left Lushun, although they saw the advance army on the road, but the advance army did not stop to harass them, but let them really avoid the war.

On the contrary, it was their house, in the continuous air raids, the Japanese had no choice but to get into the house, and when they learned that they could not evacuate, the freighter did not dare to come again, they were abandoned, and even the aircraft carrier had no way to rescue them, the last decision they made was to fight to the death.

Therefore, at the moment when the tanks rushed into the city, the sound of gunfire and grenade explosions everywhere made Lushun boil, and although the street fighting was unequal in force, the intensity was the fiercest battle in the history of the Japanese army.

Japanese soldiers from houses, from behind windows, from wall stacks, and even sewers. Attacks were carried out on tanks and armored vehicles entering the city.

Although the supplies were completely destroyed, hundreds of iron fists were still left in the hands of the troops.

After the continuous bombardment of the tanks was ineffective, they loved you and turned to the thinner looking Huzuang car.

The loud roar echoed in the sound of gunfire, one by one ramming and infantry vehicles were destroyed, and less than twenty minutes before and after the start of the battle, more than a dozen armored vehicles were hit.

This did not stop Han Jie's attack. When he learned that the Japanese army still had an iron fist, and that the houses in the city were occupied by the Japanese army, and that there were basically no civilians in sight, he ordered the destruction of the buildings on both sides of the street and the strangulation of the iron fist hidden there.

The bombardment began, and one shell after another flew out of the slow shattered bricks and tiles, filling the streets with dust, destroying houses and collapsing small buildings today. Explosions and dust everywhere rushed to the sky, and in just a few minutes, with the rotation of the turret, most of the houses on the main road and in the bustling area were destroyed.

As a result of the advance army's decision, the Iron Fist near the main road only succeeded in firing twenty or thirty shots, and was buried under the rubble, and the soldiers were buried alive, and they were not as happy as those who were killed. They may be starving to death, or freezing to death.

After all, the clearing of the ruins will not begin immediately. A day or two is enough time to freeze them to death.

Han Jie's quick decision minimized the loss. And those iron fists were already concentrated near the main road, and this bombardment, although the dust was so thick that the tanks were almost blind, the Japanese army had no weapons to destroy armored vehicles. As for grenades. There weren't many of them left except for the ones they had personally carried, which were loaded onto the ship or destroyed on the docks.

At this point, it was also announced that the Japanese army in Lushun could only rely on flesh and blood. Face the ravages of the steel behemoths.

In the fierce battle, the armored vehicles were in full swing, and the anti-aircraft machine guns were no longer short bursts, but long bursts, and in the roar of toms, they directly tore those low houses to shreds, so that the Japanese troops hiding behind them turned into debris together.

The soldiers in the infantry vehicles got out of the car one after another, and when the general situation was under control, they began to clear the remnants of the houses, and in the fierce gunfire, they did not fight with the Japanese troops, and in the fierce fire, one grenade after another was thrown into them, destroying the Japanese soldiers, or in the case of their shock, they rushed into the houses and began to strangle, leaving no one alive.

Han Jie looked at the dusty sky and said to Meng Zhaocheng, who had just arrived: "Old Meng, the commander won't think I've blown up all the loot, right?" If it were you, what would be a good way to solve it? ”

"! Lao Tzu went directly to the flamethrower, what are you polite about? It is definitely worth it to die one less fighter. ”

Meng Zhaocheng looked at the dust area and said, "The captain is right, the life of a soldier is above all else, and any means can be used in order to sacrifice less." ”

"Cut!"

Han Jie took out a cigarette and lit it, spit out the smoke and despised the old partner and said: "Nian, it's still so big, have you thought about it, if you burn it, there will be nothing left, and if it is blown up, you can still keep some of the money looted by the Japanese army, or you can't rebuild it out of your own pocket?" Those materials can also be used, which can also reduce costs, isn't it to save money? ”

Meng Zhaocheng took the cigarette roll handed by Han Jie, paused on his thumb nails and said, "You are becoming more and more careful now, even calculating this, but it makes sense, the captain has an order, if you can not destroy the houses and buildings, as much as possible, you look at Changchun, there is basically no big damage, and even repairs are saved, but the battle has been longer." ”

"Yes."

Han Jie nodded and said: "This time the order is three days, and one day is enough for us, but I feel that the captain's goal is still North Korea, which is the best springboard for attacking the Japanese mainland. ”

As soon as Han Jie's words fell, the flight attendant got out of an infantry vehicle, took a telegram and said, "Commander, command command." ”

"Huh? Ordered so soon? ”

Han Jie threw away half of his head, took the telegram and said while reading it: "Old Meng, let's get into the car and say, don't make trouble for the guards here, the battle here is not over yet." ”

"Yes."

Meng Zhaocheng glanced at the guard battalions standing nervously around him, nodded in agreement, and then followed into Han Jie's command car.

After reading the message, Han Jie smiled.

"Old Meng, look at it, what am I talking about?"

Meng Zhaocheng took the telegram and looked at it, it was sent by Xing Yuan in Dalian, the meaning was simple and clear, it was the commander-in-chief Dong Ku who ordered that after the battle of Lushun in Dalian, clean up the battlefield and leave two regiments, capture traitors and lurking Japanese troops, and the rest of the army will all withdraw, return to Dandong by land, enter North Korea, join the offensive sequence of North Korea, and use the fastest speed to take Seoul and occupy Renchuan.

Han Jie glanced outside the shooting port, and then said, "It seems that we can't stay here anymore, pass my order and fire three red signal flares!" ”

"Yes!!"

A chief of staff shouted the order and left the infantry vehicle, and after a while, three blood-red flares suddenly rose in the dusty sky.

This is the order of the advance army to attack, to quickly end the battle, to strangle the enemy. The meaning of this order is that the first purpose is to end the battle by killing the enemy at any cost, and the other previous orders lag behind, including not destroying the building, and only seek to end the battle as soon as possible.

As the flares were raised, the combat commander was also given an order to end the battle within twenty minutes.

So, at the moment when the order was given, the battle broke out suddenly and violently, with grenades, grenades, and even flamethrowers all on the field, and the tanks no longer had any scruples, directly crashing into those low civilian houses, chasing and killing the scattered Japanese troops.
