Chapter Fifty-Five: Him
On the morning of June 11, the 46th Wing of the Japanese Army continued to advance towards Myitkyina. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Along the way, they didn't encounter any interceptions or harassment. At this moment, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army was already waiting outside Myitkyina.
"Commander, the Japanese army is only ten kilometers away from us!" An officer reports.
The scouts of the reconnaissance battalion were closely monitoring the Japanese troops, and they could clearly grasp the movements of the Japanese troops at any time and at any time.
"Hmmm! Order the ministries and get ready. The little devils are coming, so don't let them leave Myitkyina alive again. "Qin Shou has already made up his mind to eat all these little devils in one fell swoop.
"Don't worry, Commander. We've laid a wide net. If the little devil wants to escape, it is absolutely impossible. Chief of Staff Liu Shiquan is also full of confidence in this battle.
Qin Shou nodded, he naturally believed that this battle would definitely be able to annihilate the 46th Wing of the Japanese Army in one fell swoop.
Time passed minute by minute, and at 10 o'clock in the morning, the 46th Wing of the Japanese Army had already reached the outside of Myitkyina. It is less than two kilometers away from the defense line of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army.
"Your Excellency, Captain, there are probably tens of thousands of people in China, who are on the defensive line outside Myitkyina. According to the information we obtained, they collected more than 30,000 prisoners of war in the city. This means that they have more than 30,000 troops. Now, they have only deployed more than 10,000 people outside the city, and I am afraid that there is some kind of conspiracy in this. The captain of the 1st Brigade, Goro Yamane, said with some caution.
"I don't rule out the possibility of this. However, I prefer that those who really have combat effectiveness are only more than 10,000 people. The rest of the troops, who had just come out of the prisoner of war camp, were given new weapons, but they probably did not form a fighting force. Therefore, what we really have to deal with is only more than 10,000 people. Defeat them, and the rest of the rabble will be vulnerable at all! ”
Tochigi Kodaisa, apparently, is a little more optimistic. What he said was undoubtedly the most optimistic scenario. Of course, the possibilities are also very high.
Yamane Goro Shaosa nodded and didn't say anything more. Since Tochigi Kodaisa has his judgment, he has no room to speak.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the people of China have built a defensive line outside Myitkyina and want to keep us out. I think it's the people of China who are buying time. They still have more than 20,000 troops that have just been reorganized from the prisoner of war camps, and they have not yet been able to form a fighting force. If we give them more time, once those troops have also formed combat effectiveness, the threat to us will be even greater.
So, I decided to attack in half an hour and break through the lines of the Shina people in one fell swoop. Storm the city of Myitkyina and kill all the people of Myitkyina! ”
Tochigi said confidently, as if everything in this battle was under his control, and they had already won the battle.
"Hi, Your Excellency, Wing Commander!" Several captains replied one after another.
"Then let all the kings go down and rest. Half an hour later, the attack began. Tochigi nodded in satisfaction.
The infantry of the Japanese army, began to rest. Some soldiers went to the Irrawaddy River and fetched some water. Then put the rice balls on the rice balls with water and start eating lunch.
Although, it's still early, and it's not yet time to eat. But they knew that once the battle broke out, they might not have time for lunch. Coupled with the fact that I had traveled so far this morning, I naturally needed to fill my stomach first.
However, the artillery squadrons of the Japanese army, as well as the artillery squads of five brigades, did not have time to rest. They needed to build an artillery position and deploy their Type 92 infantry guns to the position. Before the battle began, they were also required to use artillery bombardment to break the morale of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army.
The artillery squadron of the 46th Wing of the Japanese Army had six Type 92 infantry guns, and each brigade below had an artillery squad equipped with two Type 92 infantry guns. Because of the reinforcement of the two brigades, the 46th Wing had a total of 16 Type 92 infantry guns. This kind of firepower is undoubtedly very powerful. It also made Tochigi Gong Dazuo more confident.
"Commander, the little devil is having lunch." Liu Shiquan reported.
"Let the brethren also eat some dry food to feed their stomachs. Wait until the little devil is eliminated, and then put on a big celebration feast! ”
"Alright, Commander." Liu Shiquan immediately ordered to go down.
So, the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army and the Japanese army ordered to start having lunch in advance. It can be regarded as preparing for the next fierce battle.
Half an hour passed quickly. The squadron leader of the artillery squadron of the Japanese army, to Kodaisa Tochigi, reported that they were ready.
"Your Excellency, Wing Commander, the artillery squadron and the artillery squads of the major brigades have completed their preparations, please instruct!"
"Yo Si! Immediately fire the cannon and let those people know the power of the Great Ri* Empire. Tochigi Koosa stuffed all the rice balls in his hand into his mouth, and then gave the order to open fire.
"Hi, Your Excellency, Wing Commander." The squadron leader of the artillery squadron immediately went back to prepare.
Tochigi held up a telescope, ready to watch the anti-Japanese National Salvation Army suffer heavy losses under heavy Japanese shelling.
In his wing, those Chinese* soldiers were very afraid of the Japanese shelling, they would panic under the shelling, and even flee without a fight. In this case, the probability of victory for the Japanese army is even higher.
"Fire!" With the order of the squadron leader of the Japanese artillery squadron, the Japanese army's 16 Type 92 infantry guns began to fire.
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”
Accompanied by the sound of artillery, one shell after another flew towards the position of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army.
After the explosion, shrapnel was fired everywhere and gunsmoke filled the air. The shockwave enveloped dirt and rocks and shot out in all directions.
The soldiers of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army on the battlefield had already curled up in the trenches. The trenches that were built yesterday in a day gave them great protection. As a result, the Japanese shelling did not cause any casualties.
Watching the smoke rise from the position of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, Tochigi Kosaku nodded with satisfaction. In his mind, there was even a picture of the collapse of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army in the shelling.
It's a pity that everything is destined to be just Tochigi's own imagination. Reality, it will soon give him a slap in the face.
"Order Yu Fei's artillery regiment to fire me fiercely. it, let those little devils taste our awesomeness. Let them know that we are no longer the Wuxia Amun of yesteryear! Qin Lifetime ordered.
"Yes, Captain." The Signal Soldier immediately ordered.
"The commander has an order, artillery regiment, give Lao Tzu a fucking shot!" Yu Fei, commander of the artillery regiment, ordered.
Immediately, 54 105-mm howitzers and 12 150-mm howitzers of the artillery regiment began shelling!
