Chapter 4
Outside Qi County in Jinzhong, a mixed infantry artillery unit was quietly advancing in the direction of Qi County.
The expressions on everyone’s faces were very solemn, and they had a strip of cloth in their mouths.
At the same time, all the horse’s mouths were sealed with cloth strips, and the horse’s hooves were wrapped in cloth.
The aim is to reduce the noise made by the troops and try not to be detected by the enemy.
As far as this cautious force is concerned, the armament lineup can be described as “luxurious”.
The infantry was armed with an M1 Garand semi-automatic rifle, MG42 general-purpose machine gun and grenade canister, and an 80 mm mortar
In terms of artillery, a full forty howitzers of 105 mm caliber.
A howitzer of this caliber may not be luxurious if placed on the European battlefield.
But on the battlefield of China, it is impossible for one army to be equipped with so many howitzers, let alone other armies.
This unit was none other than Xu Guanyun’s Third Regiment.
Xu Guanyun held the telescope and looked at the situation around Qi County.
“The general is really right, the garrison of Qi County is very weak.”
“Pass on my order, the first and second battalions attack simultaneously from the left and right, the artillery is immediately ready, and the war will start on time in ten minutes!”
After receiving the order, the first and second battalions quickly touched Qi County from the left and right sides.
At the same time, artillery units were busy erecting artillery and adjusting their muzzles.
Ten minutes later, with the order to “fire”.
”
Huh
Forty howitzers fired in unison, which instantly blew up the ghost barracks outside the city into ruins.
The ghosts in the city were blown up, completely unaware of who was beating them, and for a while they were chaotic like ants on a hot pot.
“Yaga, who is attacking us?” The commander of the city defense was a young man, and he hurried to the head of the city with his men.
But the next moment he was completely dumbfounded, and a large number of soldiers approached the city gate from both sides.
It had just poked its head out of the city when a bullet knocked its hat off.
And the guards standing on either side of it had already been shot in the head, and blood splattered its face.
The ghost Shaozo was so frightened that he ran towards the city while shouting: “Enemy attack, there is enemy attack!” Quick, hold the gates! ”
As soon as he walked down the city wall, the huge shock wave from the explosion lifted it into the pig’s den.
The ghost Shaozo lay on the spot and roared with a stench all over his body: “Yaga! What kind of firepower is this! ”
“Boom….”
A devil shouted: “Your Excellency Shaozuo, their fire is too fierce to block, let’s run away!” ”
The ghost Shaozo got up from the pig dung with a livid face: “Withdraw, all with me!” ”
……
At three o’clock in the morning, Yoshio Shinozuka, commander of the First Army, had just got up.
I am preparing to play a set of island boxing techniques and stretch my body.
His chief of staff ran in anxiously
“Your Excellency Commander, something has happened.”
“Just received the news from the front, Chen Fan’s troops have taken the three cities of Qi County, Pingyao and Taikoo County, and the troops are pointing directly at Jinzhong City!”
“Nani!” Shinozuka Yoshio’s brain was dizzy and he almost fell to the ground.
“How is this possible, aren’t Kagawa and Uchiyama United besieging Buncheng and Wenshui.” Shinozuka Yoshio glared, “The Shina people are busy dealing with the imperial army, how can there be extra troops!” ”
“Moreover, with Yamamoto Kazuki’s special agent team secretly assisting, Chen Fan does not dare to act rashly!” Yoshio Shinozuka smiled and said, “You must have received false information. ”
The chief of staff sputtered anxiously: “Your Excellency General, the intelligence is transmitted from Jinzhong, and it cannot be wrong!” How long have you not contacted Kagawa and Uchiyama. ”
Yoshio Shinozuka was choked and couldn’t speak for a while.
At this moment, an officer rushed in: “Report Your Excellency General, Kagawa and Uchiyama Daisaku sent a telegram asking for help, Yamamoto’s special agent team has been completely destroyed, and they are almost unable to hold on.”
“Nani”
Shinozuka Yoshio’s eyes were dark, and he fainted on the spot.
After Shinozuka Yoshio was woken up by his subordinates, he immediately called an emergency military meeting
Things are completely out of his control.
Yoshio Shinozuka had never suffered such a severe frustration since he came to Shanxi.
It is the pride of the Imperial Army, and a ten-year-old child must not be allowed to affect its honor.
Yoshio Shinozuka walked into the conference room with a serious face.
Everyone quickly stood up: “Your Excellency Commander!”
“Gentlemen, now that the situation is urgent, I won’t talk more nonsense!”
Shinozuka Yoshio said in a deep voice: “I plan to divide the army into two ways, one way to Wenshui to support the Kagawa and Uchiyama United, and the other way to Jinchu, which of you is willing to go.”
As soon as the words fell, a ghost major general with a fleshy face stood up:
“Your Excellency General, I am willing to go to Bunsui and support Kagawa-kun and Uchiyama-kun.”
Shinozuka Yoshio saw Fuki Nakahashi standing up, and his eyes immediately lit up.
The mixed armored brigades and regiments of the Blowing Stone Middle Bridge were extremely combat-effective, and the Jin and Sui troops that had fought many times were fearful, and since their creation, they have not lost a single record.
“Blowing Stone-kun is worthy of the warriors of my empire!” Yoshio Shinozuka laughed.
Fuishi Zhongqiao said with a confident expression: “Since Wenshui and Wencheng are described as giant fortresses, then let my armored troops meet them.”
I can guarantee that all defenses in front of the imperial army are rubbish! ”
“Good!”
Shinozuka Yoshio slapped the table and applauded: “With Fukiishi-kun’s move, I believe that I will definitely win a big victory.”
At this time, another ghost major general stood up.
“General, I am willing to go to Jinzhong, recapture the three cities, and assist Blowing Shijun in attacking Wenshui.”
Shinozuka Yoshio looked and saw that it was Jun Yada, the commander of the ace brigade of the First Army and the regiment of the Seventh Brigade.
“Yada-kun, if Jinzhong comes forward, I will be relieved. If you can completely annihilate the enemy, I will definitely apply to the military department to have your brigade promoted to a type A unit. ”
Yada Jun’s eyes lit up, and he was promoted to the A-type division, which means that the future is immeasurable!
“Thank you Your Excellency Commander for your cultivation, please rest assured that Yada Jun will definitely live up to your expectations!”
Shinozuka Yoshio’s gaze was cold: “Then the two should leave as soon as possible, for the honor of the first army, we must take Chen Fan Xiaoer!”
……
Outside Wenshui County, Kagawa and Uchiyama are shrinking in the encirclement, wanting to cry without tears.
Originally, after they saw the defense of Wenshui County, they had already had the intention to retreat.
However, I was afraid that Yoshio Shinozuka would blame them, and even if the city gate was not touched, he lost a third of his troops.
If he went back like this, it would be strange if Yoshio Shinozuka didn’t cramp.
