Chapter 4: Bloody War? model

The sun has emerged in the east, and in the glow, the layers of clouds are disappearing rapidly, and it seems that it is impossible to bear to witness this purgatory on earth.

One tank after another is like a sickle from hell, roaring and crushing at the little devils, and everywhere they go, a lot of chickens and dogs jump, even if the devils are awesome, they can only run for the lives of wolves. It's not that the little devils are afraid of death, but in fact, in the absence of cluster grenades and explosives packs, they have the determination to die with their bodies, and they can only become a pool of flesh and blood if they send it.

Jing Shuxuan was originally going to gather troops in a hurry, hoping to wash the hatred of the past, but when he gathered the team and came to Yoshiju Ryosuke to report, he witnessed the defeat of the imperial army like a tide. His face was pale, and his fighting spirit suddenly turned into deep fear.

"The people of China have laid down so many tanks in ambush? Could it be that Ouyang Yun had already spied out the intentions of our army? This kind of tank, only the Type 99 can barely cope with it, right? If you use 'Quirrell' and the Bean Chariot to carry it...... It's a pity that the Type 99 tank had only one wing, and all of them were wiped out. General, let the artillery attack! Suddenly, Jing Shuxuan's face was as red as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, and his eyes were burning: "More than fifty new tanks, plus a brigade of Zhina people, generals, this is a good deal, as long as this branch army is destroyed, Nanjing City will be ours!" ”

Yoshizu Ryosuke gritted his teeth and was silent, but in his heart, there was a battle between heaven and man. Is it really going to be indiscriminately shelled? It's just that there are still two brigades of imperial troops on the battlefield.

The one-sided slaughter on the battlefield continues. From the point of view of the will to fight alone, after the initial confusion, the fighting spirit displayed by the Japanese army would have embarrassed most of the Chinese army. However, in this kind of battle where the difference in strength is too great, it is obviously not enough to have the will alone. From time to time, there are devils holding machine guns at the oncoming "Jiguang", and waiting for them, without exception, a spark splashes and approaches the steel wall quickly.

Ryosuke Yoshizu's calves couldn't help but tremble - is this the invincible Imperial Army? He thought painfully, his heart was entangled, and he didn't dare to make a decision easily.

The sound of horses' hooves came from the sound of "clicking", and the next moment, Nakagawa Hiroshi jumped off his horse and said to Yoshizu Ryosuke: "Your Excellency General, the commander of the Tani Shouo Division and the commander of the Suematsu Shigeji Division have all agreed, and they each sent a brigade over, and they can arrive here in half an hour at most." ”

Nakagawa Hiroshi was ordered by Yoshizu Ryosuke to contact Tani Toshio and Shigeharu Suematsu, and the latter's idea was that once a breakthrough was formed at Gwanghwamen, the 6th Division and the 114th Division would each have a brigade, plus the 9th Division, enter from Gwanghwamen, and divide into three routes, respectively, to cooperate with the Japanese troops remaining at Zhonghua Gate, Jiangdong Gate, and Tongji Gate, and attack from front to rear, so as to completely annihilate the defenders in Nanjing.

People are not as good as heaven, and the foolproof plan in the eyes of Yoshizu Ryosuke has now become like this. It was just that he failed to form a breakthrough in one fell swoop, and was actually rushed out by the tanks of a regiment of the Cadet Army, forming a massacre trend.

The 9th Division was one of the few units transferred from the Kwantung Army in the Shanghai Dispatch Army. The original plan of the Japanese base camp was to take into account the relatively large number of new recruits in the 9th Division, so that it could increase its battlefield experience. And it is precisely because of the special situation of the 9th Division, whether it is Tani Shofu or Shigeji Suematsu, they all look down on Yoshizu Ryosuke, thinking that he has lost all the face of the imperial army. In their minds, the commander of the division of the second strongest army in the world couldn't even beat a yellow-haired boy, so he simply disemboweled.

Among the Shanghai dispatch army, there were not a few high-ranking Japanese commanders who held this idea. Among them, Gu Shoufu was the most obvious, and once made a sarcastic speech at the division commander-level meeting.

It is for this reason that before sending Nakagawa Hiroshi to contact the 6th Division and the 114th Division, Yoshizu Ryosuke was a little worried that Tani Toshio and Suematsu Shigeji would not cooperate because of their contempt for him. For this, he was even ready to fight alone with the 9th Division.

Now, Nakagawa Hiroshi has brought good news, and it is said that he should be happy, but the confusing situation on the battlefield has made this good news a burden for him. It is conceivable that if he loses in the hands of Ouyang Yun again and again, then not to mention that he will be wantonly ridiculed by Gu Shoufu and others, and the most serious consequence is that he may even be sent to a military court.

The 6th Division and the 114th Division have already set off and will be here in half an hour, and if they don't make their choice in time, then what they see will be a big joke - just gamble!

Yoshiju Ryosuke frowned and pondered, and after a few minutes, he finally made a difficult decision: "Order Akiyama Yoshiyoshi to retreat quickly, and order the heavy artillery wing to carry out indiscriminate artillery bombardment." Major General Jing Shu, get ready to attack! Once you've destroyed the tanks of the Chinese people, attack now! Remember, we only have this one chance - if we can't get into Nanjing, I don't need to say much about the consequences! ”

"Hello!" Jing Shuxuanshi and Nakagawa Hiroshi and other devil officers responded loudly, and then quickly dispersed to convey the order.

On the ruins of the city wall of the Guanghua Gate section, Ouyang Yun gradually calmed down after experiencing the excitement at the beginning. He looked at the "Jiguang" rumbling on the battlefield and the devils who were making ridiculous resistance, then looked at the high-spirited Xuebing and Sichuan soldiers, and then looked at the Japanese troops assembled in the distance with a telescope.

"Tetsura!"

"Commander?"

"Hurry up and contact Qian Guangming and tell him to tighten the line a little and not get too far from the city wall. Kuang Cheng, take your people down, tell Zhu Zaiting and Xie Chang'an, let them bring the team back, and once they hear the ** sound, retreat immediately! ”

"Commander?" Liu Zheliang and Kuang Cheng looked at him puzzled.

On the battlefield at this time, the Xuebing Army had an overwhelming advantage, and it was a good opportunity to take advantage of the victory to pursue and expand the results, but Ouyang Yun actually asked them to prepare to retreat, this order was really a bit unbelievable.

Kuang Cheng is the company commander of the Seventh Company of the Guard Regiment, and he is also the old man next to Ouyang Yun. Because of this relationship, he and Liu Zheliang dared to raise their own questions.

"The Japanese army in the distance did not move, and it was necessary to guard against Yoshiju Ryosuke's desperate gamble!" Ouyang Yun expressed his worries: "The little devil has a heavy artillery!" After all, we are much smaller in numbers than the other side, and the occasional war of attrition can be fought, but it must be done in moderation. Our current task is to hold the city of Nanjing, cover the retreat of the main force and the people, not to kill the devil-"

"Got it!"

Facts have proved that Ouyang Yun is not unfounded. He knew the Japanese too well, and he knew that in this so-called Yamato nation, anything could happen. Just when General Liu Zheliang spoke to Qian Guangming and conveyed Ouyang Yunxin's order, and Kuangcheng was still more than two hundred meters away from the battlefield, the devils of the Akiyama Yiyun Brigade first began to break and flee, and then, their actions affected the devils on the entire battlefield - in an instant, all the devils began to turn around and run wildly, as if they were followed by a group of hornets.

Witnessing this scene, Ouyang Yun immediately shouted loudly: "Trumpeter, quick, blow the retreat trumpet!" ”

The "Dudu ......" retreat horn sounded, and almost at the same time, the distant "empty" cannon sounded, and the next moment, the sound of the "......" shells breaking through the air came all over the sky, Ouyang Yun was about to personally rush down to command the troops to retreat, Chen Deru gave an order, and the soldiers of several guard regiments picked him up and ran. Ouyang Yun shouted: "Chen Heizi, let me down, this is not the target of the Japanese army......

Liu Kui, this kid, Ouyang Yun asked him to inform Qian Guangming to attack, he was good, and he also boarded a tank. So now the top commander of the guard regiment is still Chen Deru. This time, Chen Deru was still unmoved, he watched everyone quickly remove the ruins, and then looked at the battlefield. When an explosion came, he said gloomily: "Tuanza, you must survive!" "This is the last one to walk down the ruins.

Ouyang Yun was extremely reluctant to be surrounded into Qian Guangming's headquarters, and at this time, the sound of artillery outside was already rumbling. A wing of heavy artillery began to shell continuously, the scale of which can be imagined. Ouyang Yun was shocked by one explosion after another, and that kind of pain and worry was not enough for outsiders. He gritted his teeth and sat on Qian Guangming's seat, thinking in his heart: "I am the commander of the Nanjing garrison, I am not only responsible for the brothers of the Xuebing Army, but also responsible for the Sichuan Army and the Northeast Army, calm down, calm down!" A few minutes later, he decisively picked up the phone and dialed the headquarters.

"I'm Li Hansoul, who are you?"

Li Hansoul's slightly hoarse voice came from the microphone.

"It's me, Ouyang Yun. Hurry up and send me a brigade over, quickly. Also, let the self-propelled artillery brigade hurry into position number three! ”

"I know!" Li Hansoul had already learned about the situation in Guanghuamen before, and when he heard the sound of cannons at this moment, he was very nervous, and asked, "Commander, have our people withdrawn?" ”

Ouyang Yun gloomily: "Not yet." ”

"Ahh I'll convey it immediately! After Li Hansoul finished speaking, he began to issue orders one after another.

Ouyang Yun waited for him to finish issuing the order and asked, "Lao Li, how are the other directions now?" ”

"The Japanese have been on a continuous offensive since the morning, and now the two sides are in a stalemate. By the way, intelligence came from Jiangbei that a small group of Japanese troops had been found southeast of Pukou, and from the latest intelligence analysis, it was very likely that it was Ushijima Sadao's 18th Division. ”

"Little devil, this is trying to block our only way out! It seems that the blasting of Guanghuamen is not a single action! Lao Li, which unit is left behind in Pukou now, you look at the situation, if it doesn't work, let Qian Bin and them hurry over and occupy the dock on the opposite side - Pukou must not be lost! ”

"I understand, I have already ordered Qian Bin and their group to cross the river. Commander, you stay safe. ”

"I have counted. Lao Li, you keep in touch with He Zhengchuan at any time, once I can't hold it here, I will immediately implement the second set of combat plans! ”

"Understood!"

After hanging up the phone, Ouyang Yun stood up and strode towards the door. As soon as he learned that there were Japanese troops southeast of Pukou, he immediately realized that the intensity of the Japanese attack this time would be unprecedented, and it was very likely that he would not give up until the goal was achieved.
