Chapter Ninety-Nine: Takeuchi's Determination
"Fujiwara-kun, let me show you my masterpiece."
Takeuchi Renshan and Fujiwara Osa arrived at the Nantenmen position, while the Japanese soldiers were busy building their fortifications.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Violent explosions came from the mountainside of Nantianmen, and in addition to the trench positions on the surface, the Japanese were blasting the mountain.
"Clean up the rubble, wait for the smoke to clear, and immediately reinforce the cave!"
"Hey!"
……
Countless yellow figures shuttled between the mountains, they ran and shouted. Carry out engineering work in an orderly manner.
"Takeuchi-kun, what are they doing here?" Fujiwara looked at the busy Japanese soldiers and asked a question in his heart.
Early in the morning they began to pound, and the sound of explosions was mixed with the shouts of soldiers and the roar of engines coming from a distance...... All of them made the high-ranking officers from this command very puzzled.
Takeuchi stepped forward slightly, standing on a high place overlooking this ghostly Nantian Gate, with a confident smile on the corner of his mouth:
"My troops are digging through the mountain, and this will be a strong fortress!"
Fujiwara walked up to him and took a closer look at the land from the riverside to the top of the hill where they stood, where countless Japanese soldiers were digging the land with their instruments.
"Judging by the positional level, are you going to set up three lines of defense on this peak?"
Takeuchi shook his head and smiled at him and said, "That's just the surface, under the ground of these three lines of defense, I will use tunnels to connect them together, and soldiers can rush to any point of the entire position at great speed through those standing passages." ”
"It's a lot of work!" Fujiwara looked at him in surprise, such an engineering construction is not something that ordinary people can control.
"Hehe, Fujiwara-kun, have you forgotten, I was born in civil engineering before the military academy, and for this kind of thing, it is no longer possible."
Pointing to the steep slope halfway up the mountain, Takeuchi feverishly recounted his plan:
"See the second defense position over there, there will be countless permanent fortresses there, even the 105 artillery can't do much damage to it."
"There will be tunnels between the fortifications, and even if one fortress is breached, the soldiers can move to other fortifications in a very short time to continue the counterattack."
"And each communication tunnel can only be passed through the space of one soldier, even if the enemy tries to attack us through the tunnel, it will be easily blocked by my soldiers."
"Because it only takes one soldier at the entrance of the passage to defend the entire traffic lane. Even...... We can use the dead to block the passage and stop the enemy from attacking inward! ”
"There will be several one-person-wide traffic lanes intertwined in every permanent tunnel, and even I will lose my way if I enter without a defense map."
Fujiwara frowned, and his mind was constantly simulating the offensive and defensive situation of this battlefield. He asked a question uncertainly:
"Then what if they still break through the second defense position, you concentrate all your forces in the front, what about the third defense position."
"Didn't I say it, whether it's one defense or three defenses, they will be connected by tunnels, the three lines of defense are just an illusion, they are actually a whole!"
"The soldiers in front can retreat, then the soldiers in the back can also rush forward. When the Huaxia people used the lives of thousands of soldiers to open the road to the three defenses, they would be surprised to find that there were countless firepower points suddenly appeared behind no one. ”
"At that time, the artillery I arranged on the anticline would cut off their retreat, and there would be a fault in the delivery of their follow-up troops."
"In the hidden bushes, countless barrels of gasoline have been buried, some behind which is a traffic tunnel, while others are just a deep oil barrel. But without exception, inside every gasoline drum there will be an Imperial warrior strapped in explosives, ready to give their lives for the Emperor! ”
Fujiwara looked at his former classmate in shock, he only knew about Takeuchi's plan to hold on to the South Heavenly Gate reported to the headquarters, but he didn't know the details of it. Unexpectedly, the seemingly peaceful and elegant imperial officer in front of him actually had such a huge madness hidden in his heart.
"If you follow your stubborn plan, then... Your entire army will be gone. Fujiwara said to Takeuchi incredulously. Through Takeuchi's simple words, he could already anticipate the final result.
"Is there any way back? Fujiwara-kun. ”
Takeuchi Renshan smiled gloomily, his expression was free and easy, as if he had already seen through such a result, and said indifferently to Fujiwara:
"Since the day when the empire opened so many fronts, we have no way out, the only difference between me and those madmen is that I will not do meaningless death, even if I die, I will drag several times the enemy to hell together!"
"Fujiwara, did you see the huge sacred tree on the top of the mountain?"
Takeuchi suddenly looked excited, and pointed to the 10-meter-tall tree on the top of the mountain and said excitedly.
Fujiwara also noticed the towering tree, which looked like a natural fortress. The thick trunk of the tree could not be hugged by a dozen or twenty people.
"It was a sacred tree born for war, and its trunk was hollowed out, so I asked people to continue to hollow out the heart of the tree, connecting my tunnel group with this tree, and arranging a squad of soldiers in it."
"They can shoot 360 degrees inside, and I will reinforce the trunk with concrete and steel plates, and the bullet will not penetrate. The cannonballs can't be blown up, and the tunnels can be used to transport soldiers to the tree fort in a steady stream! ”
Takeuchi looked up at the giant tree with a longing expression, his thoughts drifting into the distance.
"It's going to be my headquarters, and it's going to be the end of my life......"
Fujiwara looked at him silently, seemed to feel his sadness, sighed slightly, and said to him sincerely:
"Wow Kari Masida, Takeuchi-kun, I will report to Commander Iida again and get more support for you!"
"Thank you so much. Fujiwara-kun! Takeuchi Renzan bowed to Fujiwara and thanked him heartily.
At least he now has nearly two wings of strength, and if he can get more support, the fortress will become even more impregnable!
He was completely sure that he would turn this Nantianmen into a slaughterhouse for the Huaxia people, and it was impossible for the enemy to break through this place without paying several times his life.
At this moment, there was a small riot on a gentle slope in the southeast corner, where the Japanese soldiers were working there.
Renshan Takeuchi frowned and called a soldier over to ask about the situation: "What's going on over there?" ”
"Report to the Wing Commander, we found a large number of corpses on that gentle slope, originally thought to be our warriors, but now it has been determined that all of them are Huaxia soldiers." A Japanese soldier reported truthfully.
"All the fuss, I thought something was going on. The corpses of the Chinese soldiers, hehe, then dig up their corpses and fill them in the holes in our foundation as the cornerstone of our defensive position. ”
Takeuchi Renshan ordered gloomily, this old devil is still as sinister and vicious as ever.
"Hey!"
The soldiers saluted and hurried over to convey the order, and three tanks with bulldozers moved into action, bringing the corpses of the Sichuan legionnaires out of the dirt and filling them into deep pits......
"Let's let these dead Huamen contribute to our defense plan, hehe." Renyama Takeuchi joked with Fujiwara next to him.
"Haha, Takeuchi-kun, why didn't I find you so interesting before."
Takeuchi smiled and didn't speak, he put his hands behind his back, his eyes unblinking, and watched the progress of the project over there, and from time to time he called the lieutenant over to urge.
"Don't waste time, let them hurry up, and push all the corpses that can't be shoveled down the river."
"Hey, Your Excellency, Wing Commander."
……
Several tanks worked tirelessly. The sappers next to him were preparing to blast through the hard mountain.
Takeuchi nodded in satisfaction, according to this progress, this gentle slope will be completely bulldozed in a few days.
"Whew......"
"Whew......"
Suddenly, the screeching sound of countless shells streaked across the sky, and the sound was like a vengeful roar, slamming into the Japanese position.
"It's not good Fujiwara-kun, fast forward to the fortifications!"
Hearing this voice, he didn't have to think about it, Takeuchi Renshan hurriedly pulled Fujiwara and ran towards the fortifications behind him.
Before they could take a few steps, the violent vibration from the explosion almost caused them to stumble.
……
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The smoke of gunpowder was everywhere, and the Japanese army position was instantly ablaze!
