"It's all waste......

"It's all rice bucket ......"

Matsuoka muttered to himself.

Desperate......

Frustrated......

When did the Japanese army start to fight so indifferently?

The anti-Japanese elements are a rabble!

Not even a regular military uniform!

How did so many Kwantung Army soldiers lose their armor and lose their armor?

Is this still the Kwantung Army?

Not as good as a rabble?

They've all been arrested for a week. The Kwantung Army has not yet figured out a way to get them out.

Baga ......

Is Umezu Mijiro a waste?

Even if he wasn't there, Suzuki Kameji should have sent troops to save him......

It didn't.

The Japanese army actually lost it!

In the case of a cavalry wing, it was actually thrown off by the earth eight roads.

Then, Tubalu also killed all the way to Xiuyan.

What went wrong......

"Hurry up!"

"Hurry up!"

The warriors escorting the captives were impatient.

The fight in front was so lively, and these captives were still grinding. I really want to give them a shot.

It's a pity that there are orders from above. Keep your mouth alive.

Ask the Japanese to take things to ransom people. If they are killed, the losses will be great.

But......

Syllable!

Syllable!

It's perfectly fine to smash a few butts.

Matsuoka and the others had no choice but to move on.

No one dares to complain.

Otherwise, you will be beaten again.

The seven captives of Man Tie have all been tortured a lot recently.

All the way, they were dragged by the Eighth Route Army.

When did they, pampered, ever try such a hard long march?

That miserable ......

Chen Jiaying is not much better.

She was asked by Zhang Chu to change into the clothes of ordinary people, she was dirty, and her appearance was gone.

"Boom ......"

"Boom ......"

Suddenly, there was gunfire ahead.

Matsuoka suddenly perked up.

Is it the Japanese army who killed it?

Is the help coming?

Fast!

Fast!

Helpers are coming!

We're very, very, very looking forward to it......

However......

Rush to the front and take a look.

Immediately, his face turned pale.

But they saw that the Eighth Route Army was attacking the city.

No, to be precise, it was the Eighth Route Army that was preparing to attack the city. The troops have not really launched an attack yet.

There is only one tank......

Hey? Is that a tank?

Matsuoka's face became more and more ugly. It's almost like ashes.

What's that?

Such a large tank?

Sky!

Where did you find it?

Where did they go to find such a large tank? Larger than all the tanks of the Japanese army.

It's damning......

It seems that the tank gun is also thick and long?

"Boom ......"

Tanks fire.

The wall where the muzzle of the cannon was pointed suddenly collapsed.

Through the smoke of gunpowder, Matsuoka found that the city wall of Xiuyan County was already riddled with holes, and there were at least 20 gaps.

Needless to say, they were all hit by tank guns.

So a thick tank gun with a caliber of at least 80 mm, right? It's amazing......

"Boom ......"

Another shot.

Once again, the city walls collapsed gorgeously.

The nearby Japanese invaders were all delirious and dazed by the bombing. Others were directly shocked to death.

After all, a 100-mm tank gun. When using high-explosive shells, the lethality of unprotected targets is very large. Within twenty or thirty meters, they may be killed or injured by shock.

After all, it is a tank ten years later.

On the battlefield of World War II, it must be very cowhilarious.

"What is Staff Officer Zhang doing?"

"Why do you keep firing?"

Some people are puzzled.

Now that the city wall has exploded, let's go in!

There are so many gaps that many people can pour in at the same time. There is absolutely no need to continue shelling.

Isn't this a waste of shells? Loser......

No one answered.

Because they didn't know what Zhang Chu was going to do.

It seems that there is really no need to continue shelling......

The walls have almost been blown up......

In fact, Zhang Chu was purely testing the power of the five-pair wheeled main gun.

He had always operated the No. 3 tank. Its 50 mm tank gun, good penetration. But the power of high-explosive shells is not very great.

Now, with the replacement of the 100 mm main gun, it is definitely going to play to the fullest.

"Boom ......"

"Boom ......"

There were shells that fell around the tank.

This is the Type 92 infantry gun of the Japanese invaders. 70 mm caliber. Explodes into a ball of fire.

But it's okay.

Zhang Chu inside the tank was almost unaffected.

I just felt like the tank had been lightly touched by something. And then there was no response.

The protective armor of the five pairs of wheels is still relatively thick.

Unless the enemy is bombarded with 122mm howitzers, or 155mm howitzers, it's basically fine.

Of course, if it is a direct shot from a 105-mm heavy cannon, you have to be careful.

But it is clear that the Japanese soldiers stationed in Xiuyan do not have such weapons. Therefore, the five pairs of wheels are invincible here.

"Boom ......"

"Boom ......"

Keep firing.

Unleash the power of the 100mm tank gun.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

Suddenly, more than a dozen Japanese soldiers appeared from the gap in the city wall.

They rushed up with explosives bags in their arms. Tried to blow up five pairs of wheels.

Zhang Chu turned a blind eye.

It's none of his business.

The people around will naturally deal with it.

"Smack!"

"Smack!"

Sure enough, Chen Liangyou and others opened fire.

Other fighters also opened fire. The dense bullets easily killed all a dozen Japanese criminals.

Just kidding!

Will bring you closer to the tank? When we don't exist?

When pigs fly!

"Boom ......"

Finally, the last high-explosive shell ran out.

Zhang Chu got out of the tank. Give the tank to another member to operate.

At this time, twelve 75-mm field guns dragged by the war horses also arrived.

Well, that's the real shelling.

"Put it in line!"

"Ready!"

"Launch!"

With Ni Dong's order, the field artillery began to fire a salvo.

Dense shells rained down on the city. Immediately, a large number of fires erupted in the city.

The Japanese in the city were immediately dumbfounded.

Oh, my God!

Amaterasu bless!

How can there be so many artillery pieces on the Dirt Eighth Road?

Sky!

"Bang ......"

"Boom, boom, boom......"

More mortars began to bombard.

The Japanese were dumbfounded again.

Oh my!

The Eighth Route Army actually had fifty mortars!

So many mortars lined up and bombarded the city indiscriminately. Suddenly, all the Japanese invaders were enveloped in artillery fire.

"Yaga!"

"Request urgent tactical guidance!"

"Request urgent tactical guidance!"

Request ......

The Japanese invaders were anxious and angry.

The garrison under his command was supposed to have a thousand men. is the size of a brigade.

However, a few days ago, in order to eliminate the so-called anti-Japanese elements, a reinforced squadron was sent out. As a result, he now has only two squadrons left.

Who would have thought that the anti-Japanese elements would follow and kill Xiuyan!

It doesn't matter if it's coming!

But don't carry tanks, don't carry field guns, don't carry so many mortars!

Don't talk about martial virtues......

Bullying ......

"Yaga ......"

Kameji Suzuki, who received the report, had a deep headache.

He also couldn't understand how the anti-Japanese elements had come to Xiuyan.

A while in Gaizhou.

A moment on the top of the hearth.

Will these anti-Japanese elements be separated?

Why are they everywhere? The Japanese army was very passive!

Angry.

I felt like I was being slapped in the face.

Now it seems that Xiuyan is conquered, it is only a matter of time.

There are tanks!

And so many field guns and mortars!

How can the Japanese army carry a remnant blood brigade?

It would be nice to be able to last half a day......

Then, what he has to do is to organize more troops and re-encircle Xiuyan. Then all the anti-Japanese elements were annihilated in one fell swoop.

"Someone!"

"Yes!"

"Order the Ninth Division to besiege Xiuyan with all its might. All anti-Japanese elements must be eliminated. Leave no one behind. ”

"Yes!"

The staff officer agreed. Go out immediately and give orders.

Secretly doubtful in my heart. What about the top of the hearth? The anti-Japanese elements over there have not been wiped out!

It is said that the fighting over there was also quite fierce.

A brigade of the 9th Division was lost.

Now that the 9th Division has been ordered to go to Xiuyan, is the 9th Division busy?

Previously, the 9th Division was also called upon to defend itself against Soviet ......

This is a change of day......

However, the staff officer is also to think about it.

He's a little lieutenant staff officer, and what do you want to do so much?

That was the matter of the chief of staff of the lieutenant general of the Kwantung Army, and the commander of the lieutenant general division of the 9th Division. Those are all big people on the high.

"Nani?"

"Xiuyan?"

Ryosuke Yoshizumi almost wanted to curse.

The General Staff of the Kwantung Army ate poop?

After a while, he ordered to encircle and suppress the top of the hearth. A moment ordered to guard against the USSR. After a while, he ordered to encircle and suppress Xiuyan?

Is the Ninth Division the Monkey King? Can it be ever-changing?

"Your Excellency Division Commander, we have only one wing of mobile strength......"

Chief of Staff Matsumoto Osa cautiously reminded.

The General Staff of the Kwantung Army apparently did not carefully consider the actual situation. It's a blind command.

Of course, Matsumoto can also guess some of the reasons behind it.

The General Staff of the Kwantung Army did not want to alarm too many troops. I don't want to make a big deal out of it.

Just dispatch the 9th Division.

At most, let the Fourth Division fight and get started.

It's all two divisions.

Can't deal with a group of anti-Japanese elements?

If more divisions are transferred, the situation will be uncontrollable.

The more troops involved in the encirclement and suppression, the easier it is for information to leak out. Maybe it will make the Kwantung Army lose face.

What?

To clear out the anti-Japanese elements, you actually need to mobilize three divisions?

Hey, you're the Kwantung Army!

You are the most elite troops in the army!

Your equipment is the best, your personnel are the best, and you're still fighting like this?

Lose face!

Let's go for seppuku!

It was already a great humiliation to be defeated by the Soviets.

If it is defeated by scattered anti-Japanese elements, it is not as simple as shame.

The commander of the Kwantung Army, the chief of staff, should be seppuku.

Baga ......

But in the end, it still has to be followed.

Nothing to say. Who told the Ninth Division to be the closest to Xiuyan? Who does it not go to?

What's more, Yoshizumi Ryosuke has never been afraid of war.

Anyway, he is the commander of the division. Not soldiers. There is no danger of death.

If a soldier dies, the top will immediately replenish it.

Now there are still a large number of fanatical young people in the country, and there is no problem at all in replenishing the soldiers.

Many young Japanese people are vying to go to war.

In fact, Ryosuke Yoshizumi doesn't need to worry about the issue of supplementation at all. Because the new replenishment program has come down. The 9th Division was fully replenished.

All are domestically trained recruits. At least two years of military training were conducted.

Is there a shortage of soldiers in the Japanese army?

There is no shortage at all.

At least not for now.

The Ninth Division was preceded by 25,000 people. After the rectification, it can even reach 26,000 people.

Why 1000 more?

Because these 1,000 people are consumables. It is the combat attrition that has been prepared for a long time.

Immediately let the staff officer draw up a battle plan.

Over there, the battle against Xiuyan was also officially launched.

Under the cover of artillery fire, the fighters began to rush forward.

"Smack!"

"Smack!"

Suddenly, two warriors fell.

Zhang Chu frowned.

Hey?

Not a Type 38 rifle?

Take a closer look at where the bullets are firing. I found out that there were no Japanese invaders over there.

Presumably bandits.

According to intelligence, there are many bandits in Xiuyan.

There are many mountainous areas around Xiuyan. All kinds of dangerous peaks. A large number of bandits gathered.

After the Japanese invaders came, most of the bandits took refuge in the Japanese invaders. Many bandits ran into the city.

Those bandits are all habitual bandits, and their marksmanship is very accurate.

"Smack!"

"Smack!"

With the sound of gunfire, several more fighters fell.

Still no one was seen shooting.

Special mother's!

Zhang Chu frowned again.

It seems that these guys don't shed tears when they don't see the coffin!

Good!

Will meet them.

Immediately set off with a Garand semi-automatic rifle.

Search.

Discover the first target.

Good fellows, it turned out to be hiding behind the ruins of the battlements.

The muzzle of the gun came out of the cracks in the ruins. Retract immediately after the fight. Cunning. No wonder it's so hard to spot.

"Bang!"

A shot at your fingertips.

Bullets enter through cracks in the rubble.

The bandit died in an instant, without a sound. Tilt your head and never move again.

Sample!

Zhang Chu bent his waist and continued to move forward.

With a keen sixth sense, he quickly found his second target.

Also hidden in the ruins.

Or the ruins that have been blown up.

The muzzle of the gun also protrudes from the cracks in the ruins. As soon as the gun is fired, the muzzle of the gun is retracted.

Boy!

I know how to hide it!

It's almost comparable to Vasily.

But......

"Bang!"

A shot passed. Get the other party done.

Then quickly walk through the ruins. Came to the first than the bandit who was killed,

Stretch your feet. Kick the ruins next to you out of the way.

That's right, a bandit indeed. The most common Mosin Nagant rifle is used.

Stoop. Pick up the Mosin Nagant rifle.

It was discovered that the bandit's mouth had thick calluses. Apparently an old gunslinger.

It's a pity......

Such a good marksmanship is not used to kill Japanese criminals. Rather, they are used to kill their own people.

Some emotion.

Then he shook his head.

What do you feel about?

How much more can you expect the bandits' ideological consciousness to be?

Suddenly I sensed danger.

Get down.

At the same time to the rear of the side fire.

"Bang!"

Kill the target.

I was also lying in the ruins.

A bullet grazed his scalp. It's unfortunate. Hit.

A piece of flesh had been gouged out of his head.

It's not rubbing off.

It's being dug up!

I almost lifted my skull.

I have palpitations.

Motherfucker, these damn bandits!

The radar map is flawed. Only the location of the Japanese can be marked. But there is no mark on the puppet army, or bandits, or anyone else.

In other words, if it wasn't for the Japanese sneak attack, there would still be a chance of success.

However, he Zhang Chu is definitely not a good stubble.

Want my life?

Come on......

"Bang!"

Get the first shot.

Kill a bandit in the distance.

I don't know where it came from. Enfield rifles were used.

"Bang!"

Killed another one.

Then quickly crouch down. Dodge incoming bullets.

But it was another bandit who opened fire.

A total of two bandits. Cooperate with each other. Left and right flank.

If it were an ordinary person, it would definitely be fooled.

Even if you kill one of them, you will be killed by the other.

Fortunately, Zhang Chu is not an ordinary person.

Moreover, his advantages gradually appeared. It's getting bigger and bigger.

What are the advantages?

The sight distance is very far. Comes with a telescope effect.

Just now, the hidden Japanese gangsters were not discovered, so the bandits had a chance to attack. But from now on, they have nothing to hide.

Clear targets within 200 meters......

Another 300-meter target was cleared......

In the end, Zhang Chu came to an abandoned mansion.

There are a lot of hidden bandits inside.

He could sense the breath of a bandit.

This is a suburb of Xiuyan. There are no walls. You can come and go freely.

"Young man!"

"We can talk about ......"

"You are alone, not our opponent! You'd better be ......."

Someone shouted in the house.

Zhang Chu ignored it.

Raise your hand and take out the bazooka.

Am I alone?

Right!

There really is only one person.

It's really hard to deal with so many of you.

So......

I'm sorry.

I greet you with rockets.

"Whew!"

"Boom ......"

Rockets whizzed away.

A dazzling flash of fire exploded in front of the bandits. Destroy the courtyard walls.

"Ah......h

The screams and screams of the bandits were heard.

The bandits hiding behind the courtyard walls were either killed or injured by the bombing. The remnants fled in all directions.

Zhang Chu was about to change his weapon when he suddenly saw someone appear.

"Smack!"

"Smack!"

The other party is a fast gunner. After several consecutive shots, the remaining bandits were killed. Then quickly collect the weapons and ammunition of the bandits, and then flee away.

Zhang Chu: ......

Hey, does black eat black?

That's the weapons and ammunition I shot down......

But it didn't stop it.

Since the other party eats black and eats black, it is estimated that he is not an ordinary person. I want to see what the other person is going to do.

Unfortunately, that guy was short-lived and disappeared.

Zhang Chu held the Garand semi-automatic rifle and continued to move forward. Continue the search for the remaining bandits.

Over there, the warriors engaged in a fierce battle with the remaining Japanese invaders.

The battle is still fierce.

The stubborn Japanese invaders are still brave. Death does not surrender.

There are constantly fighters who are dying.

Chen Jinchang was also shot. Fortunately, it didn't hurt the vital point.

Ni Dong was also injured. Blown up by a grenadier from the devil. Fortunately, there is still consciousness. The shrapnel is not deeply inserted. There should still be salvation.

Zhang Chu had to temporarily give up working alone and go back to assist in the siege.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Kill multiple Japanese Criminals from a distance.

It's all Japanese machine gunners, grenadier shooters, and the like.

Then look for the artillery positions of the Japanese invaders.

The Japanese also had infantry artillery, as well as mortars. The threat is still great.

Follow the map.

Found it quickly.

Sure enough, there were two 70-mm infantry guns, and four millimeter mortars.

Launch an attack.

Kill multiple Japanese in a row.

"Yaga!"

"Dirt Eight Road!"

"Dirt Eight Road!"

The remaining Japanese artillery found out that something was wrong and immediately self-destructed the artillery.

They stuffed explosives into the barrels. Then detonate.

There are also people who directly hold the explosive bag and hug the cannon tightly......

"Poof!"

An infantry gun was blown up.

The Japanese who were holding the infantry guns were also blown to pieces. Gone.

"Poof!"

Another infantry gun was blown up.

Subsequently, all four mortars were also blown up.

Zhang Chu: ......

Oh grass!

The Japanese are really ......

No wonder the Eighth Route Army had such a hard time capturing the Japanese artillery.

As soon as they found out that something was wrong, the Japanese immediately self-destructed. With the technical capabilities of the Eighth Route Army, it is impossible to repair.

Fortunately, Zhang Chu doesn't care about this.

As long as there is wreckage, it can be recovered.

"Ding!"

"Artillery upgrade system expanded!"

"From now on, you can upgrade the 85-mm cannon, or the 122-mm howitzer."

Suddenly, a message came.

After a short period of surprise, Zhang Chu seemed indifferent again.

Not practical.

Neither can be used in mountainous areas.

The 85-mm cannon also needed to be towed by a truck. It cannot be pulled by livestock.

Not to mention 122-mm howitzers. Although powerful. But also super bulky. It must be towed by heavy trucks. Moreover, the requirements for roads and bridges are very high.

The brutal truth is that even with these heavy weapons, it is difficult to come in handy.

Why? Because it can't be expanded!

The East Asian battlefield here! Roads and bridges are the worst.

Many bridges are not capable of carrying more than five tons. Not to mention the ten-ton artillery convoy.

As for tanks weighing up to more than thirty tons, it is even more difficult.

Once blocked by the river, these heavy weapons are useless. The end result is either self-destruction. Either it was seized.

What to do?

I can only say thank you to the system......

Next time, you won't have to be so tempting. Even for 155 mm heavy guns, it is useless.

"Staff Officer Zhang!"

"Staff Officer Zhang!"

Suddenly, Chen Liangyou came in a hurry.

Chen Jinchang and Ni Dong were both injured. Now it is Chen Liangyou who is in charge of commanding the front-line battles.

"What's the matter?"

"Devil ......"

But it's coming to an end. But there were still some Japanese turtles huddled in a bunker.

The bunker was so strong that the field guns couldn't blast it open. Mortars are even more useless.

What to do with Zhang Chu?

Of course, it's going to be a tank gun......

(End of chapter)
