Chapter 246: Stop
Guanmei Village is located in the direction of due north of Tanxi Township, and on the mountain ridge near Xiaomiao Village, which is five kilometers northwest of Guanmei Village, Hengshan Yong is running wildly under the escort of about 100 officers and soldiers. After the ammunition of the Eighth Division was replenished, Zhang Tianquan immediately drove to Guanmei Village with the 22nd Brigade. As soon as they took root in Kanmei, the deserters of the 17th Division led by Isamu Yokoyama rushed to the vicinity of Kanmei. Yokoyama is not good at fighting, but his ability to perceive danger is super strong. After capturing Fengxin County, he realized that he would only be able to survive in the north if he continued to stay here, so he led a large group of devils under his command to break through to the north under the pretext of reconnoitring the enemy's situation. Yokoyama Yong's decisiveness really saved his life, at that time, Chu Tiange's guerrilla troops had not been able to organize a defensive line because they were too tired, so even though they had a great advantage in troops, they were still successfully broken through by him. Of course, after being sniped by the guerrillas one after another, the more than 1,000 people he brought out were almost exhausted, and now there are only more than 100 people left.
Yokoyama's original plan was to replenish it at a distance from Anyi and then continue to flee north. However, after a lot of hardships to escape to the area of Tanxi, but happened to encounter the 145th Wing of the Cadet Army to encircle and annihilate, he took a look from a distance, and found that even if he filled in this little bit of people, it would be for nothing, so he didn't want any spirit of friendship and bushido, and took his subordinates to find the snow wild cat directly.
This cat was three or four hours, and when he was sure that the Anyi Scholar Army had withdrawn and made a detour to Guanmei Village, he found a large number of Scholar Army chariots on the field outside Guanmei Village. Yokoyama's battlefield judgment was still quite strong, and he immediately realized that "these gun trucks must have ambushed the 2nd Army", because the telegraph had been broken in the engagement, so he pulled his troops far away from Guanmei Village, and then ran away, trying to find the 2nd Army reinforcements before the 8th Division opened fire, so as to help them avoid this trap. I have to say that once the little devil's small universe erupts, although he is born with lap legs, his marching speed is fast enough. Of course, with the sound of thunderous cannons coming from the direction of Guanmei Village, no matter how hard they tried before and how fast they ran, it was just chicken ribs.
Under the artillery fire of the student army, the boss suffered a big loss, and even the sound of "aggressive ......" shells breaking through the air came to their ears, and many devils immediately instinctively lay down on the spot. It's still a step too late - Yokoyama Yuya stands still. However, he was able to accurately judge the direction of the cannonball's flight, so he did not make all kinds of ugly gestures like his men. Seeing the shells flying in the northwest direction, he stretched out his right hand and asked the commander of the 17th Brigade next to him, Harumotsu Suzuki, "What direction is that?" ”
Suzuki Haramatsu opened the map and looked at it, his face was ugly: "It should be Jiangshang Township and Baicha Township - these two townships are separated from each other on both sides of the river." ”
When Yokoyama heard this, his face became extremely ugly, and after half a sound, he gritted his teeth and scolded: "Eight grids! This must be Ben Xiu Shui Jiangmian! Who was appointed by Nishio Shouzo as commander-in-chief, didn't he receive a telegram from us? Eight Geyaru! Can't we make him cautious about the lessons we have learned with the blood of our military? ”
Haramatsu Suzuki lowered his head, a look of pain.
"Leave them alone, move on!" Isamu Yokoyama said as he retracted his gaze, and then saw his subordinates lying in a circle beside him. Enraged, he stepped forward and kicked one of his subordinates and scolded: "Eight grids! Can't hear the trajectory of the shells? This is heading northwest! Eight Ge, your guts have been scared by the Zhina people?! ”
All the devils were silent, and they quickly got up one by one and stood there with their heads down.
Their decadent appearance fell in the eyes of Yokoyama Yong, and naturally attracted another scolding: "Eight grids! What are you doing standing stupidly? Keep moving! ”
"Hello!"
When the tank brigade and the armored vehicle brigade began to cross the river, Yoshio Shinozuka got off the station and stood by the river, looking at the snow ridge stretching on the opposite bank and sighed very emotionally: "God is really kind to that person!" What a beautiful view! Hearing this, the chief of staff said: "Not only beautiful, but also a natural fortification!" Your Excellency - What voice? ”
"Shelling!" Yoshio Shinozuka's face changed.
"Your Excellency the Commander of Protection!" Behind him, Adjutant Hashiba Haoren shouted. Then, when Yoshio Shinozuka ordered the evacuation, he was forced back into his stomach by several gendarmes. Several gendarmes set him up and ran down the embankment, while the others fell down on the spot when they saw this. Some of the officers began to shout loudly for their men to lie down, and the devil chariot on the ice roared like crazy, and drove frantically towards the opposite bank with thick black smoke.
From the sound of shells breaking through the air to the sound of explosions filling my ears, it was only a few seconds. One fireball after another rose up, and in the next moment, in the rumbling explosion, the scene that made the devils worry the most appeared. The ice could not withstand such a huge bombardment, first there was a creaking sound, and then a large area of ice cracked and collapsed with the explosion point as the center.
"Wow!" A tank plunged into the broken ice, raising a high column of water, and the screams of machine gunners rang out.
"Haruji Taniguchi! Find the enemy's position and immediately organize a counterattack! Di Bujia Gui yelled at the artillerymen behind him.
"Hello!" Haruji Taniguchi answered loudly from afar, and while ordering his subordinates to immediately prepare for the bombardment, he began to observe the trajectory with a few staff officers.
Judging from the observations of Haruji Taniguchi and others, the shelling of the 22nd Brigade can be described as unscrupulous. The 150-millimeter shells were smashed down in pieces, with no intention of stopping. Five minutes after the shelling, the ice and even the wider Xiushui River were completely blown open. Seeing that only monstrous artillery fire and groups of giant langs were left on the dense ice surface of the chariot just now, the muscles on Taniguchi Haruji's face twitched, and he forced himself to remain calm, and changed his order: "Stop, the artillery position of the people of China is out of our range!" ”
The explosion was so violent that many devil artillerymen received new orders through the relay of the commander. They stopped their work in turn, and then looked at the river where the artillery was raging in a daze, and they were all stupid for a while.
Yoshio Shinozuka had resumed his command of the troops at this time, and after meeting with Lieutenant General Motojiro Taniguchi, the commander of the 108th Division, and the chief of staff, Kanji Yazaki, they glanced at each other, and then looked at the southeast direction where the shells were flying, and they didn't have a temper at all.
Haruharu Taniguchi could see that the enemy's artillery positions were outside the range of the artillery under his command, and it was naturally impossible for them not to see it. That's why they behave so powerlessly.
