Chapter 306: Thunder is rolling
The third lieutenant general of Sakurai Province was also puzzled, he was the first batch of troops to invade China to enter China, at that time he was only a wing commander, and in three years he had been promoted from a large sa to a lieutenant general, and from commanding a wing to commanding a division. The engineer wing of the Japanese army fighting in China was important, because the Chinese army always destroyed roads and bridges, delaying the advance of the Japanese army.
At the same time as the imperial army attacked, it was necessary to build roads and bridges, otherwise the heavy artillery tanks would not be able to pass at all, so the attacking Japanese army always put the sappers in an important position. But as soon as you enter from the southern Thai border, there is no sign of damage to the road along the way, and it is all intact.
For this reason, the Japanese army advanced very quickly, and some bridges on rivers were also there, and they were not blown up and not guarded by troops, why is this? Could it be that the Southern Han knew that the enemy had abandoned all these places and fled? But in the face of the Southern Han Snow Fox army, it was almost impossible.
Remembering the warning of the commander of the front army, Sakurai Province 3 informed the commander of the infantry brigade, Major General Illumination Saburo, to be careful of the dangerous terrain and send a search team to inspect it to prevent an ambush by the Southern Han army.
For Major General Illumination Saburo, he was not worried, the 33rd Division's three infantry wings of more than 10,000 people finished the zigzag attack forward, protecting the division headquarters and artillery wing in the middle, the front attack opened the way is the 62nd tank squadron, eight Type 92 light tanks drove forward, accompanied by a large group of infantry, this is the strength used to attack the fortification, I believe that there is no too dangerous terrain from here to Lang City, can not block the attack of the chariots. Besides, the Southern Han did not destroy the road for some reason, so that the Japanese army's baggage and ammunition followed very closely, and there was no need to worry that the logistics supply could not keep up.
With such a heavy attack, the small group of harassing troops is mainly driven away, and the imperial army, which has learned a lesson, will no longer divide its forces to pursue. The Japanese troops who attacked the 100-man army with divisions and regiments did not care, so the attack went very smoothly. From the war briefing, it was known that the 2nd Division attacked the same as him. Chen Dong commanded two divisions that were retreating and did not stop the imperial army. The more this is the case, the more worried the Sakurai Province is, the elusive and cunning Southern Han Army makes the Japanese army feel bottomless, and they don't know what is waiting for them in front?
"Report" A soldier came running on horseback, jumped off his horse and reported to Sakurai Province: "There is a blocking force in the section of the Huishan road in front, and the advancing troops are blocked. ”
Sakurai was relieved when he heard the blocking troops. Nanhan's style of play made him very worried, and he didn't know about the unpredictable danger. Knowing that the Southern Han army was blocking made him feel at ease: "The artillery was ordered to move forward, and the chariots formed a commando to attack the defense line of the Southern Han army, and attacked directly to Lang City." ”
At this time, thirty miles away from the blocking position, Chen Dong was in the headquarters of the Fourth Division, Zhao Jinsheng looked at Chen Dong, Chen Dong glared at him and said, "What do you see me doing?" Here you are the commander, how to fight you don't know? ”
Zhao Jinsheng stood upright: "Yes, my subordinates know." Turning to Chief of Staff Wang Dongkui, he said: "Order the blocking troops to block the Japanese army until dark, prepare to start a counteroffensive operation, start the attack at dawn, notify the 102nd Brigade to move forward, and start the attack in the early morning." ”
Wang Dongkui agreed, turned on the radio and issued orders to the division commanders of the two brigades. As soon as it was dark, the hidden troops around the Japanese advance began to appear and surrounded the Japanese army. A division of Snow Fox is a two-brigade and six-regiment system, with a strength of about 15,000 troops, which is still less than a division of the Japanese army.
For Terauchi Shouichi, he used so many troops that he knew how many people Snow Fox had, which was on par with the attacking Japanese army, and it was almost impossible to destroy the imperial army in the shortest possible time. In this way, the Southern Han army can be completely dispersed, so that they can give up one road, and the tactics of concentrating forces to fight the other road are not good, so they can only divide their troops to fight. In this way, the Southern Han Dynasty, which was far from having enough air force, had to deal with the naval attack, which was the end of failure.
The chariot troops and artillery had just been sent to prepare, but the 1026th Regiment of the Fourth Division of the Southern Han Army, which was defending, took the initiative to retreat, which made Major General Illumination Saburo overjoyed and ordered the chariots to pursue in front and the infantry to follow, not giving the Southern Han a respite. But they had just advanced a few hundred meters away, and a deep ditch more than ten meters wide appeared on the road, which could be more than two meters deep and five or six meters wide, cutting off the highway at the waist, and the most infuriating thing was that it was blocked until the slopes on both sides were blocked, and the Japanese army could not pass through this deep ditch without filling in it, and strangely the opposite side did not even have the strength to defend.
In desperation, Major General Illuminator Saburo had no choice but to order the troops to stop advancing and send sappers to fill in the deep ditch, which was the first time that the road was destroyed, and the sappers finally had a use. Unfortunately, both wood and dirt had to be used, so Saburo ordered the 213th Wing to help with it, and the Japanese dug up the earth and felled trees on the nearby hill to fill in the deep ditch.
However, even if such a deep ditch was just to fill in a section of the road, it would take a lot of time, and by the time the Japanese saw that the deep ditch had been filled, it was already dark. The third lieutenant general of Sakurai Province in the back had to order the Japanese army to set up temporary defensive positions, camp on the spot, and prepare to spend the night. Now that the deep ditch has been filled, then if you attack early tomorrow morning, you can go directly to Langcheng and capture it.
At this time, Zhao Jinsheng was a little nervous, and constantly asked the chief of staff to interrogate whether the brigades and regiments had arrived. Although he didn't say a word, the commander never left, that is, he planned to sit here and watch himself command. This is a bit like an exam, so Zhao Jinsheng didn't dare to make any mistakes, and the staff officers and guards of the division headquarters were also nervous.
Chen Dong originally came here to stabilize Zhao Jinsheng and them, but he didn't expect to make the Fourth Division nervous, and in the dark of night, in addition to one regiment in front, the Fourth Division had two regiments on each side, and one regiment in the rear of the Japanese army, all of which took advantage of the night to approach the garrison where the Japanese army was concentrated.
The soldiers carried their weapons in their hands, and the people behind them pushed the vehicles, which pulled their ammunition, and the whole regiment of more than 1,000 people was quietly advancing, no oxen and horse-drawn carts, no motor vehicles, all done manually.
These preparations were something that the devil could not have imagined, and the third lieutenant general of Sakurai Province only received a report from a reconnaissance plane that there were no large-scale troops on the way forward, so he was very relieved. But how did he know that this was the place of the Southern Han Dynasty, and it was the home battle of the Snow Fox Army. From the day when the border defense line was established, the Japanese army might attack is what Xue Ru knew, Japan must attack the Southern Han, and after they take Vietnam, they will control Thailand, from China, Thailand, and Saigon, Vietnam, a three-sided attack is inevitable. The preparations made by the border guards and the Wehrmacht of the Southern Han Dynasty were for this day, and it can be said that the battle plan for a year could not be thought of by the Japanese army.
The Southern Han Air Force had planes, and Xue Ru, who paid attention to information theory, asked Huang Jianxiang that some of the reconnaissance planes be converted into fighter planes, and an aviation machine gun was added to them to hunt and kill the Japanese reconnaissance planes.
In the main strategic places in the territory of the Southern Han Dynasty, on some high mountains, there are ground monitoring posts of the air force, which are equipped with radio observation posts, and the astronomical telescopes that use the maximum magnification, which can observe hundreds of kilometers at most, search the surrounding sky all the time, and the Japanese reconnaissance planes can know as soon as they enter, and notify the nearest airport to take off and intercept them.
The Japanese reconnaissance planes did not know that Xue Ru's Nanhan ground had artificial radars to monitor the sky, so it was very difficult for the reconnaissance planes that entered these areas to escape, causing the reconnaissance planes of the 21st Flying Regiment to suffer astonishing losses, but they did not understand why, and could only think that the Nanhan Air Force had a large number of them, and there were all-weather patrol planes in the sky.
For this reason, the number of planes that bombed the Southern Han was also gradually reduced, otherwise the losses could not be afforded. Japanese planes bombed Nanhan, and the Nanhan fighters were waiting there on the way back!
This is a method that Xue Ru thought about for a long time to come up with, to establish a radar station on the ground, Nanhan did not have so much money, and besides, the radar technology of Britain and the United States and other countries was not exported, and it was not allowed to be sold, Taylor thought of a lot of ways to get a relatively backward radar at close range and install it in the coastal direction. The area of the Southern Han Dynasty is not small, and it is surrounded by enemies, so Xue Ru remembered that there are satellites in space and receiving stations on the ground, that is, the Southern Han Dynasty is divided into countless pieces, and ground observation points are established at some strategic points and key locations, most of which are built on high mountains and peaks, and a lot of scientific and technological hundred-fold astronomical telescopes are imported to conduct sky searches manually.
In this way, the Japanese army can be found when it is 100 miles away, although it is only a dozen or 20 minutes, but it is enough for the Southern Han Air Force, and there are temporary take-off and landing sites for planes in some major cities, and the planes are in the hangars in peacetime, and they cannot be found if they want to bomb, and they can be lifted off when they enter the runway.
This kind of hunting tactic was really effective, the Japanese reconnaissance planes were rarely able to detect anything, and it was difficult for the Japanese troops to know the troop movements, and they could also effectively carry out air defense operations; sometimes Wang Hai's air defense units stayed on the gun trucks, and would rush to the location according to the reports of the observation posts to ambush the Japanese bombers.
It was with these measures that the territory of the Southern Han Dynasty was rarely bombed by Japanese aircraft. This time the Japanese army was fooled again, and their reconnaissance plane was specially allowed to enter, and the information given to Sakurai Province was that there was no large troop movement around, but he didn't know that Zhao Jinsheng's division of tens of thousands of people was lurking not far from him, this is the advantage of fighting at home, everything is prepared in advance. If a few thousand people were hidden in any hiding place, the Japanese sky planes would not be able to detect it.
When the Japanese planes could not be dispatched at night, the six regiments approached the devil from four directions, and when they saw the weapons in the hands of the troops of the Fourth Division, except for Chen Dong's Second Army, I am afraid that only one person understood, and that was Xue Ru. Not just because she came up with the idea, but because Xue Ru is a traverser, if there is another traverser, he will also understand what this weapon is called.
The "conscienceless cannon" is good, it is this kind of conscienceless cannon made of gasoline barrels, and many people call it flying thunder. This is probably the cheapest cannon, so when Chen Dong asked for gasoline barrels and a large amount of **, Zhao Wufu didn't understand what to do.
At this time, there were four hundred such cannons that entered around the devil from four directions. Another point, during the Liberation War, it was a temporary method, not prepared in advance, but Chen Dong was prepared in advance, so neither the range nor the power nor the speed could be compared by later generations. According to Chen Dong's request, this is to completely eliminate the devil A division and regiment, and a regiment in each direction prepares 300 shells, how much is that?
* It can only be made by pulling a car, at this time, in order to avoid sound, the regiments on all sides do not use carriages, carts, and shoulders to transport these things to the launch distance, these improved thunderstorms can reach more than 800 meters at most, and there are also four or five hundred meters recently, after the troops of the four regiments are ambushed, they set up their earthen cannons, this kind of thing has been tested for a long time, absolutely no problem, and it is nothing more than a little worse accuracy, but it is much more accurate than throwing it with a rope.
When it was just dawn, Wang Dongkui came over and said, "Each regiment reports that it has entered the position. ”
Chen Dong didn't rest, he sat on the chair all night, Zhao Jinsheng didn't dare to say, the army commander was sitting like this, how could he dare to say that the army commander should rest, he was not in the mood to sleep, he stared and waited all night. Hearing the report, Chen Dong stood up and said: "I'm back to the Qinghua Headquarters, and after solving the problem here, the troops will advance to the border of Nanfu and stick to the defense." ”
Zhao Jinsheng didn't know what the military commander was doing here to sit all night, but he said immediately: "Understood." ”
Chen Dong, who walked to the door, turned around and said, "Commander Zhao, Miss said that the Japanese prisoners of war are very difficult to deal with, and they are kept and wasted food, do you understand?" ”
Zhao Jinsheng hurriedly stood upright: "I understand that I will not let them annoy Her Majesty." ”
Chen Dong is going to rush back to Thanh Hoa, I don't know how Zhang Hu under the command of Kim Dongyu is fighting, I believe that Maruyama Masao is no better, right? He went from here for a day and a night until he saw Zhao Jinsheng launch an attack on time, and knew that there was no problem, if Sakurai Shengsan could escape this catastrophe, Chen Dong would take off his military uniform and never command the troops again.
The Japanese army has already risen, they are going to attack and occupy Langcheng today, attack Sangnu, yesterday's deep ditch is a retarded act, and how long can they stop the imperial army. Early in the morning, the Japanese army was preparing to set up camp while eating, and the chariots were filled with fuel and ready to start advancing.
Sakurai had not stepped into the car with one foot, and suddenly there was a strange sound in the sky, he looked up at the sky, and there were many black dots flying in the distance, and the speed was not fast and the wind sounded, what is this? Of course it's not a cannonball, the cannonball can only see the tail light at night, how can you see it during the day, and besides, the black spot is getting bigger and bigger in a short period of time, and the ghost soldiers in the camp all look up at the sky, not understanding what it is.
Because more than 20,000 people were stationed, no matter how dense it was, there were several miles in a radius, so the place where these black spots fell was on the edge of the camp, and Sakurai Province was in the center of the position, and it was impossible to see anything clearly. As soon as he lifted the telescope, there was a dull explosion in the distance, and the earth shook with such force that the earth shook for a moment. With the first explosion, around the Japanese barracks, like thunder fell, the explosions rang out in one piece, and it was impossible to distinguish how many they were, and the earth was trembling and thick smoke was rising.
The Japanese troops of the 33rd Division were stupid, they could not know what kind of weapon this was, because there was no sound, there was no ballistic, and the artillery wing did not know how to return fire, and at this time it did not even know what it was.
These huge bags made of *, he didn't have any fragments, but the impact was huge, and they exploded in the middle of the devils, and the people were directly blown into the sky, one by one, except for the Japanese troops at the center of the explosion, most of the surrounding were injured, but this time it didn't blow up, and before he could wake up, another * made the devil faint directly.
The camp of the 33rd Division became a hell on earth, God was angry, the gods were angry, and thunder was rolling, drowning a Japanese division in the smoke and explosion. Sakurai is in the middle of them, and not many of these black spot explosion shells have fallen into the middle, and he is not dead yet, he is completely stupid at this time.
He pushed the chief of staff away and screamed in a wolf-like voice: "Your Majesty the Emperor, people can't defeat the gods, and the Great Japanese Empire is over." The sword in his hand stabbed him in the abdomen.
