"Yes!" Wen Yingxing responded happily.

Jin Zhao thought for a while and said, "Now the little devil should already know our intentions, in this case, we don't have to hide it, order the 205th Division and other units to shrink their positions and gather troops, and order the 1st National Defense Division, 210th Division, and 212th Division to attack the positions of the 6th and 16th Divisions of the Japanese Army in front of us!" Ordered the 202nd Division, 203rd Division, 211th Division, 213th Division and other divisions to quickly go north to attack Liyang, Lishui and other places! ”

"Yes!" Wen Yingxing replied loudly, then turned around and walked towards the confidential room.

On March 14, 1938, the Fujian army troops holding the city of Nanjing suddenly turned into an offensive and launched a large-scale counteroffensive against the Japanese army. Although the Japanese army had long been aware of the signs of a breakthrough of the Fujian army, they had already made preparations. But in the face of the ferocious counterattack of the Fujian army, the little devil was still beaten and retreated. In the face of the steel torrent of the Fujian army, the Japanese defense line was broken through one after another like paper paste, and in less than a day, the Japanese army's two defense lines were broken through and forced to retreat five miles.

On March 15, the main force of the 25th Group Army of the Fujian Army successively recovered Liyang and Lishui counties and continued to advance towards Nanjing.

"Baga Ya Road! Tada Jun, this idiot, is a rice bucket! Shunroku Hata couldn't help but scold. Guangde and Langxi were lost successively, and now the Min army continued to go north, recovering Liyang and Lishui successively. Seeing that the net he had carefully laid was about to be unceremoniously torn to pieces by the Min army, Shunroku Hata's mood at this time can be imagined. So all the anger was vented on Tada Jun, and Toshi Hatatoshi naively believed that the reason why the Japanese army was defeated in successive battles was caused by the command mistake of Tada Jun, a fool.

"Your Excellency, Commander! Now is not the time to hold accountable, now must find a way to prevent the Shina people from breaking through! Tsukada hurriedly explained.

"Humph!" Hata Shunroku glanced at Tsukada and snorted coldly, he was also quite dissatisfied with Tsukada's attack on Tsukata Shunroku, and Hata's dissatisfaction with Tsukada's attack was mainly because Tsukada attacked the failure of the assassination of Jin Zhao, and now the Japanese army has gotten the exact news. The Japanese army's assassination attempt failed to hurt Jin Zhao's hair at all, and now Jin Zhao is still alive and well commanding the Fujian army to launch a counterattack against the Japanese army! The assassination attempt was a complete failure, and Shunroku Hahata was naturally quite dissatisfied with Tsukada's incompetence.

Seeing Shunroku Hata's murderous gaze looking at him, Tsukada couldn't help but feel a fur in his heart. For fear that Shunroku Hata would transfer his anger to himself, fortunately, Shunroku Hata did not completely lose his mind, but just glared at Tsukada Tsukata, tried to suppress the anger in his heart, and asked coldly, "The current situation is greatly unfavorable to the imperial army. Is there any way for Tsukada-kun to change the unfavorable situation of the imperial army? ”

A layer of cold sweat had already appeared on Tsukada's forehead, and he stammered, "The most important thing now is to prevent the Chinese army from breaking through, now that the imperial army has surrounded Nanjing City, the logistics supply of the Chinese people has been completely cut off, even if the imperial army does not attack, it can trap the Chinese people alive in Nanjing City." Therefore, he believed that the top priority at the moment was to mobilize troops to prevent the reinforcements of the Fujian army from rushing to Nanjing. If this army was allowed to fight against the people in Nanjing, the imperial army's previous efforts would be in vain. Therefore, he believed that the main force of the 11th Army should be mobilized to strengthen the defense of the southern front of Nanjing, so as to prevent the Chinese from breaking through. ”

"Humph!" Shunroku Hata snorted coldly. In Shunroku Hata's opinion, what Tsukada Tsukasa said was nonsense, and what Tsukada said was something that he didn't know about Shunroku Hatata. But Shunroku Hata couldn't think of a better way to do it even after racking his brains. In the end, Shunroku Hata sighed helplessly and said, "Order Tada Jun, that idiot." In any case, it is necessary to block the reinforcements of the Shina people, and in addition, he ordered Gangcun Ningci to transfer the troops of a division to the south. Assist the 13th Army in blocking the reinforcements of the Shina people! ”

"Hayi! Your Excellency the General is wise! Tsukada said respectfully, then turned around and fled as if to leave.

After receiving Shunroku Hatata's order, Tada Jun was depressed and almost vomited blood, Nima, you said lightly, the Min army was like a broken foot all the way, how can you let me stop it! Now Tada Jun completely understands why Matsui Ishine and Yanagawa Heisuke were defeated so badly in the first Nanjing Battle. It's not that they're too incompetent, it's because the enemy is just too strong.

Tada Jun looked at the telegram in his hand blankly, and couldn't think of any countermeasures after thinking hard, suddenly Tada Jun noticed the sentence mentioned in the telegram, blocking the reinforcements of the people at all costs, suddenly the corner of Tada Jun's mouth leaked a hint of a seeping smile, thought about it carefully, gritted his teeth and said, "That's it!" This time, I must let the people of China know that they know how powerful the imperial army is! Haha," Tada laughed maniacally.

On the evening of March 15, Tada Jun ordered the commander of the 18th Division, Sadao Ushijima, to launch a counterattack on Lishui at night and take Lishui in one fell swoop. Ushijima Sadao took the telegram sent by Tada Jun and asked in a deep voice, "Are you sure this is Commander Tada's order?" ”

"Hayi! The humble post has already sent a telegram to the headquarters to confirm that this is indeed an order personally issued by His Excellency Commander Tada! Chief of Staff Kei Oto replied respectfully.

Ushijima Sadao sighed helplessly and said, "Since that's the case, let's carry out the order!" ”

"Hayi!" Megumi Koto replied respectfully, then turned around and strode away with his saber on his shoulder.

In the dark night, there was a sudden rumbling cannon, and the soldiers of the Min army in the trenches were awakened by the sudden sound of artillery. The officers commanded the soldiers to run towards the anti-artillery hole, but until everyone hid in the anti-artillery hole, the Fujian officers and soldiers suddenly found a very strange thing, that is, they did not hear an explosion from the beginning, could it be that the little devil hit all the squibs, obviously this is absolutely impossible, occasionally a few shells are squibs, that is not strange, but all the shells can't be squibs!

"Not good! The little devil is hitting a poison gas bomb! At this time, someone who reacted quickly had already exclaimed.

"Everyone immediately put on gas masks." At this time, the officer's face had changed, and he hurriedly issued an order to remind the soldier to quickly put on a gas mask.

"The little devil is a gambler! Brethren, hurry up and put on gas masks! Several Fujian army officers ran out of the artillery hole and shouted loudly in the trenches, reminding their comrades in the artillery holes to wear gas masks.

In the piercing whistling sound, one after another poison gas bombs were fired into the position of the Fujian army, and in the burst of sneering sounds, the entire position was shrouded in poison gas.

Ushijima Sadao looked at the direction of the Fujian army's position, sighed helplessly, and then said coldly, "Order the troops, launch an attack immediately, and be sure to take the Fujian army's position in one fell swoop." ”

"Hayi!" Megumi Koto replied respectfully.

"Kill, give!" Amid the roar of the Japanese commander, groups of people wearing gas masks and carrying bayonets rushed in the direction of the positions of the Fujian army.

Almost at the same time, tens of thousands of Japanese troops from the 18th Division, the 114th Division, the 22nd Division and other units launched a fierce attack on the position of the Fujian army on the first line of Lishui. The Japanese army, which was as dense as an ant colony on the ground, was frantically rushing towards the position of the Fujian army.

The sound of gunshots, explosions, shouts of killing, the silence of the night shattered completely. In the explosion, the flames soared into the sky, flesh and blood flew sideways, and in the dense gunfire, tongues of fire swept mercilessly towards the crowd, like the scythe of death, recklessly harvesting life. Every minute, every second, countless people fall under the rain of bullets, and life seems so fragile at this moment. Whether it is the little devil or the Min army, they are completely crazy at this moment. One by one, with red eyes, they tried to kill all the enemies they could see, and at this moment, they were just fighting for survival, because only by killing the enemy could they survive this war. War is so cruel, either you die or I die, there is absolutely no second choice.

"What do you say? The little devil used a gas bomb? Jin Zhao asked incredulously. During the entire Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese army used to frequently use poison gas bombs, which brought great losses to our anti-Japanese soldiers and civilians. It stands to reason that the little devils use poison gas bombs, which is not unusual, because these Japanese pigs are simply a bunch of miscellaneous animals that are not even as good as animals, and they will do whatever it takes to achieve their goals. But in this time and space, Jin Zhao once used a poison gas bomb on a large scale in North China, directly annihilating the Japanese 16th Division in one fell swoop, and then Jin Zhao sent strategic bombers to attack Tokyo, and threatened Japan nakedly, if the Japanese army dared to use poison gas bombs again, it would be met with crazy retaliation by the Fujian army. Since then, although the Japanese army has also used poison gas bombs, they have never dared to use poison gas bombs against the Fujian army. Now Jin Zhao's eyes widened in surprise when he heard the poison gas bomb used by the little devil.

"Yes! Just yesterday evening, the Japanese army used a large number of poison gas bombs on our Lishui defense line. Since it was at night, our troops were caught off guard and suffered heavy losses. At least a thousand people were poisoned, of whom more than a hundred were poisoned. The Japanese army then launched a large-scale attack, and our army responded in a hurry, although the attack of the little devils was finally defeated, but the first line of defense was broken by the Japanese army. The 203rd and 213rd divisions lost up to four thousand men and were forced to temporarily stop the offensive. Wen Yingxing gave Jin Zhao a brief introduction to the battle situation last night with a heavy face.

"How could there be such a big loss?" Jin Zhao couldn't help frowning, war casualties were inevitable, but thousands of people were lost in one night, and Jin Zhao still felt a little unacceptable to such a result. (To be continued......)
