Chapter 143: Changjiang

The taunts of the friendly forces did not make the soldiers of the Komuro Brigade feel ashamed, and they did not see anything wrong with their actions as small traders. A few soldiers carefully observed that there were no forts or other structures nearby, and they discussed it in a low voice, and then began the landing operation under the command of Komuro. "Rush!" "Kill!" …… After landing on the beach, more than 1,000 officers and men of the Komuro Brigade shouted and charged at the terraced houses, and their momentum was so magnificent that only the devils of the Ishii Brigade were stunned one by one, and then they burst into laughter.

"Eight Ge, worthy of being a lowly trader, this thick-skinned!" One of the captains of Ishii's brigade said, spitting at the ground fiercely.

Ashamed to be with them, after Ishii gave the order to advance, more than 1,000 devils of the Ishii brigade left the defensive position that had just been established and began to advance to attack in depth. Ishii said to a few of his right-hand men: "These cowardly and fearful little traders, let them eat their farts with us!" Warriors of the Marine Corps, we have collected this battle! ”

The Ishii brigade began to attack and advance, and several of Komuro's men came to his side and asked him what he thought: Your Excellency, should we follow?

"Of course, although they look down on us, but as the big brother of the army, how can we watch them fall into the siege of the Shina people and be indifferent?" Komuro said with a sense of reason. So, the Ishii Brigade drove out for less than ten minutes, leaving a squadron of the Komuro Brigade to guard the landing position, and the others followed.

Sawada Shigeru took in the situation on the shore through a telescope, and twenty minutes later, under his command, the second wave of the landing force began to depart. The main force of this landing was a wing of the Osaka Division. The devils of this wing had just landed on the coast one after another, and the fighters on the aircraft carrier such as the Kaga took off again after completing refueling and reloading. This time, they will carry out strategic bombing along the route opened by the two squadron fighters to remove the obstacles to the ground forces.

In Taipo, Changjiang, after the lookout posts reported to Chang Geng that two squadrons of devil fighters were searching and advancing from two directions, the Western Front Command began to secretly transfer to the No. 2 Reserve Underground Command Center in Qifang Town. The civilians withdrew first, and they were evacuated in about 20 minutes in off-road vehicles, escorted by two regimental guards, along a dirt road that shuttled through the jungle.

Chang Geng and other military personnel retreated, and they also needed to observe the Japanese offensive situation to determine the center of gravity of the Japanese attack.

When the Hainan Campaign began, the most nervous military and political departments on Hainan Island were not the Xuewu Army led by a single hero and the Hainan Self-Defense Force led by Baoshan, but the oil company in Chengmai and the mining group in Shilu. The biggest reason why Ouyang Yun attaches so much importance to Hainan is actually because of the oil in Chengmai and the iron ore in Shilu. As a traverser, Ouyang Yun knew that the Japanese would definitely use troops against Hainan, so when these two industries were built, he was thinking about their survival in the war. At his insistence, the Cadet Corps also set up a special department, the "Research Group on the Wartime Mechanism of Factories and Mining Enterprises." The team is headed by Fan Xudong, and their job is to develop practical wartime mechanisms for large enterprises to protect large equipment from being destroyed by war.

While the Combined Fleet was raging wildly in the Wanning area, the wartime mechanism of Chengmai Petroleum and Shilu Iron Mine had been activated. Chengmai Petroleum, one after another pumping equipment was put down, all kinds of camouflage were placed, and the nearby buildings were also demolished; Shilu Iron Mine, the blast furnace of the steel mill stopped operating, and one after another large plates were transported in to enclose the blast furnace, and soon, a rockery with the blast furnace as the core was built.

When Chengmai Petroleum and Shilu Iron Mine conducted their first wartime mechanism exercises, they were unanimously opposed by everyone from the person in charge to the workers. But now, looking at the expensive machinery and equipment in disguise, they realized the necessity of this mechanism.

For the battle strategy of Qiongnan, Yamamoto Fifty-six only gave one word: fast. Koizumi, who is well versed in history, gives a more apt definition: blitzkrieg.

Yamamoto's idea was good, and after he took down the large and medium-sized towns in southwest Qiongxi in one fell swoop, the Combined Fleet could be regarded as gaining a firm foothold on land, and then whether it was using troops in the southeast and northeast, or establishing bases, the Combined Fleet would have the overall initiative.

However, because the main force of the army is now the Osaka Division, it seems that there are still many problems to be solved if he wants to realize this idea.

The Japanese offensive in southwest Qiongnan can indeed be defined as a "blitzkrieg" in the afternoon of that day. The Ishii Brigade and Komuro Brigade, which were the first to land, under the cover of the air force, took only three hours to enter Changjiang. In Changjiang, they encountered the resistance of a regiment of miscellaneous troops (one battalion of regular cadet soldiers, two brigades of self-defense forces), and the devils of the Komuro brigade were afraid to attack for a while, but after seeing their own air force only one dive and scatter the Shina people outside the city, their little bushido spirit was stimulated, and they immediately followed the Ishii brigade and launched a charge.

When the war broke out in Changjiang, Chang Geng silently saluted the only place in the city with the flag of the Cadet Army, and boarded his armored command vehicle.

If you want to lure the enemy deeper, you need a certain number of outcasts, and the battalion guarding the Changjiang River plays such a role.

One fireball after another rose at the head of the city that was not high in Changjiang, and one after another self-defense members and cadets fell from the top of the city, and their blood flew in the air, staining the land of Changjiang and the eyes of onlookers.

On a hill three kilometers northwest of Changjiang City, Ou Baoshan finally couldn't help it, she grabbed Guo Yucheng's right hand with tears, suddenly bit him the shoulder, and then cried and scolded: "What about your army, where did your army go, they actually fled without a fight, are they still men?" ”

Guo Yucheng was speechless.

What can he say in this situation? And the military content that is confidential, he can't tell Pepper either.

There's a reason why Oubaoshan is so excited. Originally, according to the agreement, when the little devil hit, the residents along the way should immediately start fleeing. However, when Ou Baoshan and others promoted this strategy in Changjiang City, where Li and Miao are the majority, they were rejected by the locals. They would rather defend the city with their blood than give up their home, and so, a scene that is diametrically opposed to what was imagined appeared. Although the self-defense forces outside the city were scattered, more Miao and Li men picked up knives, sticks, and birds to climb to the top of the city.

On this day, Hainan Island is destined to have no sleep.
