544, food, clothing, housing and transportation, the volunteers are all inclusive
A Japanese second lieutenant stood beside the ruins of an artillery position in a daze.
His eyes glazed over. The military uniform is broken. His face was scorched. His hair was also burned by the fireworks. It's like it's called Hanako.
No, it's not so miserable to call Hanako.
He was lucky to survive the heavy bombardment just now.
However, the hellish scene in front of him made him feel like he was dead.
What's the point of being alive?
It's better to be killed by a shell earlier.
All the heavy artillery of the heavy artillery wing where he was a member was destroyed.
All the trucks, ammunition trucks, all turned into piles of wreckage. All kinds of other equipment were also blown up and scattered.
Some are still on fire.
Actually, the heavy artillery was not completely damaged.
The shells used by the anti-Japanese elements do not seem to be so destructive. The barrels, gun carriages are fine.
The problem is that the barrel and the gun carriage have been separated.
All the barrels of the guns are already pestles on the ground. Or lying on the ground.
The artillery was also blown up.
Although the general structure of the heavy cannon is still there, it is no longer helpful.
Because it has lost its effect.
Cannons that can't be fired are cumbersome. What's the use?
"Shirakawa ......"
"Shirakawa ......"
Suddenly, there was a faint breath.
The second lieutenant of the Japanese artillery in a daze gradually came back to his senses.
It seems to be ......
It's the voice of the captain of his own wing.
Hurriedly bowed his head.
Sure enough, I saw that in the messy wreckage, his own wing captain was lying there, covered in blood and dying.
"Your Excellency Osa......"
"Quick, report...... Request for Emergency Tactical Guidance ......"
"But, Your Excellency Osa ......"
Shirakawa looked around blankly.
Report?
How do I report it?
All the communication equipment was also blown up.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, there was a muffled noise.
But it was a cannon barrel that was originally pestle, and now it has completely collapsed.
Scroll.
Crushing.
Everywhere they passed, they were crushed.
It wasn't until it could no longer roll that the barrel slowly stopped.
Request ......
"Emergency ......"
"Tactical ......"
"Mentoring ......"
The commander of the Japanese artillery wing was angry.
Shirakawa seemed to hear it. And it didn't seem to be heard. He looked around blankly.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
"Boom, boom, boom......"
From time to time, there are shells that continue to fall. Continue to cover the messy battlefield.
Shirakawa noticed that there were more than twenty shells that fell at one time.
It seems that the anti-Japanese elements used an artillery regiment specifically to bomb them. Or a heavy artillery regiment.
Sloppy.
The Japanese did not expect that the anti-Japanese elements would have heavy artillery.
If they had known, they wouldn't have been so negligent. It will definitely be the first to attack the artillery positions of the Japanese elements.
The maximum firing range of the 105-mm heavy cannon was about 18 km. In terms of firing range, it is completely capable of overpowering any artillery fire of the same caliber. This is also the pride of the Japanese artillery.
It's a pity......
It's too late to say anything.
"Your Excellency Dazuo, Heecheon City has been surrounded by anti-Japanese elements......"
Bai Chuan said helplessly.
He heard the sound of gunfire all around, very intense.
Judging purely by the sound of gunfire, the number of anti-Japanese elements will definitely not be small. At least 10,000 people. Or even 20,000 people.
Why?
Because, the Japanese army stationed in Heecheon had four or five thousand people.
A full infantry wing. Plus a couple of hundred gendarmes. And they have a heavy artillery wing. Definitely more than five thousand.
What's more, there are more than 3,000 imperial alliance troops. Combined, there are eight thousand people.
Heechuan City has such a strong garrison, how can the anti-Japanese elements dare to attack brazenly if they don't have 20,000 people?
So, here's the problem......
How did the anti-Japanese elements get together 20,000 people?
20,000 is not a small number.
The main force of the Japanese army stationed on the peninsula, the 19th Division, was about 24,000 people.
Weapons and ammunition are needed.
Food clothing is needed.
How did the anti-Japanese elements hide so many people before? Where did they come from?
No answer......
"Your Excellency Osa......"
"Your Excellency Osa......"
Shirakawa subconsciously called. only to find out that the captain of the Great Zuo Wing had died.
But it was the continuous explosions, and finally the Japanese Kou Dazuo was killed.
"Ding......
"You killed the Japanese artillery Osa ......"
"You get 50x crit bonus......"
"You get 100,000 Ocean ......"
Information poured in.
Zhang Chu nodded thoughtfully.
Finally dead.
Previously, there had been no news of the death of the commander of the Japanese artillery wing. I thought it had escaped!
Unexpectedly, its life was quite hard. It's been held up to now.
But, after all, it's dead.
The power of the 107 rocket artillery is not covered.
Especially if there are enough rockets, it is enough to crush any target repeatedly.
Of course, the premise is not to hide inside the underground fortress.
"Dead ......"
"All ...... dead"
Shirakawa walked forward blankly.
It wants to find its companions. Give yourself a little bit of security.
"Boom ......"
"Boom ......"
There were shells exploding nearby. But Shirakawa didn't care.
He didn't want to live anymore. He felt like he was dead. All of the heavy artillery wing died. He's the only one alive......
"Shirakawa ......"
"Shirakawa ......"
Suddenly, there was a faint call.
Shirakawa slowly stopped. Look at the ruins on the left. There was his boss in it. His captain.
That's an artillery sergeant. It was pressed under the barrel of a heavy cannon.
The heavy cannon was blown up and tilted and tilted, just enough to press the artillery Shaozuo down.
"Your Excellency ...... Captain"
Shirakawa ...... Request for Emergency Tactical Guidance ......"
"Yes......"
Shirakawa reluctantly agreed.
I know. But......
Then, he saw that the artillery Shaozo did not move again.
Dead again.
After saying the last sentence, Shaozo died.
Shirakawa: ......
I will.
I'll ask for urgent tactical guidance.
If I had a radio station......
Keep moving forward.
One foot deep and one foot shallow.
See a heavy cannon intact.
There is hardly any damage. If there are no accidents, it should be possible to launch.
But......
Suddenly, the heavy cannon slowly cracked.
Yes......
Shirakawa subconsciously avoided it.
But it was the gun carriage that was blown up. Only now is the complete separation.
"Poof!"
The barrel immediately fell off and slammed into the ground.
The gun carriage was immediately raised. The debris on it was thrown out. Then he also fell to the ground with a bang.
Dog's breakfast.
After all, it was broken.
It is estimated that it was blown up later. But it was blown up anyway.
Shirakawa: ......
There is no emotion. It's been numb for a long time.
The entire field heavy artillery wing was finished. How could there still be artillery left.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
"Boom, boom, boom......"
Not far away, another shell fell.
The barrel that had been rolling just now was pushed by the blast wave of the explosion and continued to roll.
It just so happened that it was rolling in the direction of the Japanese Kou Dazuo. Then, flatten it. Without the slightest hindrance. In the face of the heavy barrel, the human body is completely useless.
Mu Ran for a long time.
Fierce gunfire was heard in the distance.
See the constant eruption of firelight. In the firelight, Japanese troops were constantly blown up.
The battle was fierce.
The artillery fire of the anti-Japanese elements was very fierce. The attack was very violent.
Shirakawa looked at it blankly.
Looking at ......
Gradually, I doubted life.
But it noticed that the shells that fell at the same time, at most, were two or three hundred rounds.
Note that it is ...... at the same time
In other words, not a single cannon fired continuously. Rather, two or three hundred guns were fired at the same time.
Shirakawa begins to doubt his own intelligence.
Did the anti-Japanese elements actually have two or three hundred heavy artillery? How can it be?
One heavy artillery regiment, that is, 36 heavy guns.
Could it be that the anti-Japanese elements actually had several heavy artillery regiments? When pigs fly......
Thinking about it......
Shirakawa actually squatted on the ground in pain.
He hugged his head. I feel like my brain consciousness is splitting. is disordered.
No way......
No way......
When pigs fly......
"Boom, boom, boom......"
"Boom, boom, boom......"
However, more shells fell.
And so many shells fell at the same time. There must have been more than two hundred guns.
No way......
Possible......
No way......
Possible......
Two thoughts intertwined repeatedly. Or even fights.
Eventually, Shirakawa fell to his knees and slammed his head into the ground. to alleviate the pain in the mind.
Terrible......
He felt like he was going crazy......
"Shirakawa ......"
"Shirakawa ......"
Suddenly, someone called again.
Shirakawa turned his head with difficulty. From the bottom up, see half a person.
Hey?
Half a person?
Yes......
Only half of the face.
The other side was blown up.
It seems to be ......
"Your Excellency Muto......"
"Shirakawa ......"
"Your Excellency Muto......"
"Shirakawa ......"
"Muto ......"
Shirakawa gradually felt that something was wrong.
But it was Captain Muto who kept moving forward. He didn't seem to be seen.
Muto kept muttering all kinds of names in his mouth. All are people from the heavy artillery wing. However, no one answered. All were blown up.
Finally......
It slowly pounced. And then there was no movement.
Probably, probably, indeed dead.
Shirakawa continued to bury his head in the dirt. Constantly stirring the ground. Only in this way can the pain in the mind be relieved.
Gradually, gradually, a hole was dug in his head.
Comfortable......
It's so comfortable......
He buried himself alive just like that.
Finally liberated......
……
"Nani?"
"Heecheon City under attack?"
"The anti-Japanese have heavy artillery?"
"How could it be ......"
Kenzo Kitano, who received the report, felt that his eyes were black.
Unthinkable.
Unbelievable.
There are anti-Japanese elements who dare to attack Heecheon!
Do they want to die?
You must know that there is a wing of the Japanese army stationed in Xichuan!
That's a wing!
A wing of Japanese troops can sweep across the Silla Peninsula.
No matter what kind of anti-Japanese armed forces they are, in the face of a wing of Japanese troops, they can only retreat. No one dares to fight head-on.
Now the anti-Japanese elements actually dare to attack Xichuan!
I really ate the bear's heart and leopard gall, and I don't want to live! Just a few dozen of them, a few broken guns......
Wrong!
The defenders report heavy artillery!
At the beginning, Kenzo Kitano would never believe it.
However, now I have to be skeptical.
Because before, there had already been reports from the Hamada brigade that the anti-Japanese elements had heavy artillery.
A person reporting may be a lie.
Two people report......
Worst......
Could it be that the anti-Japanese elements really had heavy artillery?
For a time, Kitano Ken rebelled and ignored the news of Yanagawa Heisuke's killing.
If you are killed, you will be killed......
If Heecheon City is lost, it will be the worst.
Strictly speaking, Yanagawa Heisuke is a member of the Cabinet, not of the Army. He has retired. There's no more influence.
But if Xichuan is conquered by the anti-Japanese elements, the base camp will definitely be martyred.
Hurriedly came to report Kotaro Village.
"Your Excellency Yanagawa jade shattered?"
"Heecheon ......"
Kotaro Nakamura was visibly taken aback.
He's an old battlefield too. Immediately realized that there was a huge hidden danger in this.
Anti-Japanese elements conquer Iron Mountain!
The commander of a brigade of a major general of the Japanese army was killed.
Now, the anti-Japanese elements are besieging Heecheon again, and a senior lieutenant general of the Japanese army is killed.
Yaga!
Things are very scary.
This fully shows that the anti-Japanese elements have become a climate.
Able to conquer Iron Mountain.
and dared to besiege Xichuan.
It shows that the combat effectiveness of the anti-Japanese elements is already very strong.
Once Xichuan is breached, even the capital will be in danger.
The Japanese garrison in the capital is actually a wing. At most, the number of gendarmes is a little more.
However, in a large-scale melee, the gendarmes did not have the slightest effect.
Trouble......
"Where is the main force of the anti-Japanese elements?"
“……”
Kenzo Kitano couldn't answer.
Because he hasn't had time to investigate yet. However, Kotaro Nakamura's words reminded him.
The Japanese army is besieging Iron Mountain.
The anti-Japanese elements appeared in Xichuan, could it be because Tieshan couldn't hold it, so they fled to Xichuan?
In other words, the anti-Japanese elements did not hold on to the Iron Mountain?
The Japanese army quickly regained Iron Mountain?
"Learn more about the situation."
"Yes!"
Kenzo Kitano hurriedly came out.
Ordered the staff officers to understand the situation on the Iron Mountain front. Whether the Iron Mountain has been reclaimed.
However......
The staff officer quickly replied:
"Your Excellency, fierce fighting is going on on the Iron Mountain Front......"
"The Nakajima Brigade fought with the anti-Japanese elements for three hours, and more than 400 people were killed and wounded......"
"Yaga! Did they recover Iron Mountain? ”
"No ......"
"Where are you now?"
"Here."
The staff officer hurriedly marked it on the map.
It's okay if Kenzo Kitano doesn't look at it. As soon as I saw it, my blood pressure spiked. That location is the periphery of Iron Mountain at all!
What do you mean?
It's that the Nakajima brigade has not made any progress at all.
It is still circling around the periphery of Iron Mountain. But more than four hundred people have already been killed or wounded. Nothing came of it.
"What about the Kawamura brigade?"
"There is no progress for the time being. They reported that a squadron was all broken......"
"Yaga!"
Kenzo Kitano suddenly found that he couldn't do anything but scold.
Mobilizing so many troops by himself to besiege Iron Mountain, he originally thought that he could achieve it overnight. At most, it will be a day of fierce fighting, and you will be able to take back the Iron Mountain.
It was impossible for the anti-Japanese elements to go head-to-head with the Japanese army. They will definitely withdraw.
Unexpectedly, the judgment was wrong.
The anti-Japanese elements actually fought to the death with the Japanese army at Tieshan.
While fighting to the death, he actually has the ability to send troops to attack Heecheon.
Can't figure it out......
Where did the anti-Japanese elements come from?
Why did their strength skyrocket overnight?
Headache......
Headache......
……
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
At this time, the Xichuan front line was already in full swing.
The number of volunteers is still too small. There are only a little more than a thousand. In addition to the heavy artillery fire, it was actually impossible to launch a strong attack.
Even if there are a large number of bazookas, they need to be operated by soldiers.
"Report!"
"Say!"
"We've recruited more than 500 people."
"Oh?"
Zhang Chu was overjoyed.
Recruit 500 people?
How was it recruited?
At this time, it is still possible to recruit people who are willing to kill the Japanese invaders?
"Who? Where did it come from? ”
"They are pariahs."
"What?"
Zhang Chu doesn't understand very well.
Untouchables, is it a profession?
An Jiyong explained simply.
This untouchable, in fact, is the offspring of criminals.
The offspring of criminals, even if they did not commit crimes, are inferior. Being discriminated against.
The Japanese invaders will have everything to do with the anti-Japanese elements. Even, if there is an anti-Japanese element in a village, a group of them will be killed, and then all the others will be listed as untouchables.
Untouchables can only depend on others for survival. Pretty much the same as a slave. Even inferior to slaves.
Around Xichuan, there are many untouchables.
Their days can only be said to be worse than death. It is not uncommon to be hungry for nine meals in three days.
Now that someone is killing a Japanese criminal, many untouchables immediately rush to help.
Resistance is also death. If you don't resist, you die. Since the anti-Japanese elements have a supply of weapons and ammunition and can still eat enough, what are they afraid of?
So they asked to join the volunteers.
Li Zhong and the others immediately arranged meals for the untouchables, and the steamed buns were full.
"Good!"
"Good!"
Zhang Chu was very happy.
As long as there are people, everything is easy to do.
So the armament and ammunition were arranged.
"Report!"
"Report!"
Suddenly, Cui Zhi came in a hurry.
Zhang Chu: ???
What's wrong?
Hurriedly look at the radar map. There are no new Japanese invaders!
It's still the ones that were in Heecheon City before. Kill one less one.
Heecheon Castle itself was one of the most important strongholds of the Japanese invaders, and a wing was stationed. The surrounding Japanese invaders have been almost transferred. There will be no reinforcements in the short term.
How long is this short-term? At least five days!
In other words, even if the Japanese invaders immediately mobilize reinforcements now, it will take five days to arrive at the earliest.
Therefore, Zhang Chu had enough time to slowly conquer Xichuan City.
A Japanese infantry wing, plus the Korean puppet army, was about 8,000 people. Is five days enough? Enough!
"What's the matter?"
"Come, come, come, come."
"What?"
"There are a lot of untouchables here. There are thousands. Probably tens of thousands. ”
"What?"
Zhang Chu almost jumped up.
No way, happy.
10,000 untouchables? Where is it? Hurry up and show me!
Is that a pariah?
Of course not!
That's all soldiers!
More than 10,000 soldiers!
What?
The old, weak, sick and disabled must not be a soldier?
That's right!
Charging into battle is definitely not good.
However, not all of the troops are charged!
There is still a lot of logistical work and auxiliary work that needs to be done. Logistics must be done well in order to free up more elite soldiers.
For example, to operate the 107 rocket launcher, you don't need to be too strong.
As long as it can function normally.
"It's coming!"
"It's coming!"
Under Cui Zhi's leadership, a large number of untouchables arrived.
The situation is much better than Zhang Chu imagined. A third of the young men in the middle.
Under the high pressure of the Japanese invaders, they did not dare to have any thoughts of rebellion. However, now that the Japanese invaders were cleaned up, their courage to resist was immediately ignited.
No one is afraid.
Because no matter how serious the consequences are, they will never be worse than they are now.
The big deal is death.
If they continue like this, they will die sooner or later.
There is no need to mobilize ideas. I just ran over.
"Cui Zhi?"
"In!"
"What did you tell them?"
"Let's just say three meals a day. Guaranteed to be fed. Free food, clothing, housing and transportation. ”
"Oh......"
Zhang Chu understood.
It is such a basic condition that attracts so many people.
Food, clothing, shelter and transportation, the volunteers are all inclusive.
Right!
Army! All for free, of course!
The grouping of personnel immediately began.
Five regiments were formed in one go. Each regiment is about 1,000 people.
Dissatisfied with the editor.
But it will soon be full.
Why?
Because there is still a steady stream of untouchables coming in the future.
Just around Xichuan, there are so many untouchables. How many will there be in the entire Silla Peninsula?
Zhang Chu felt a bright spot in front of him.
This wave is stable!
