The mortars fired first.

Full firepower. Throw it into the open area as quickly as possible.

"boom……"

"boom……"

Shells exploded in the open field.

It was a little off. It didn't explode to the middle because there was no test firing before.

Adjust quickly. Then keep firing.

"boom……"

"boom……"

More shells fell.

The Japanese invaders who were attacked were caught off guard and unable to dodge.

Many were killed and injured on the spot.

Sure enough, the Japanese invaders were careless. They did not expect to be attacked here.

I wasn't ambushed in the narrow canyon, but was ambushed after I walked out of the canyon. I couldn't react at all.

At this moment, they are the most relaxed and the most relaxed.

"Tu tu tu tu..."

"Tu tu tu tu..."

Large-caliber machine guns began firing.

The bullet stuck to the ground and skimmed across the open space.

God blocks and kills God.

Demon blocks and kills demons.

"ah!"

"puff!"

Various short screams.

The Japanese invaders who were hit were quickly silenced.

There was no chance to even cry out. There were stumps and broken arms everywhere on the ground.

Many Japanese invaders were still confused when they arrived in front of the Yasukuni Shrine. They had no idea how they were killed.

"Baga!"

"Cunning Chinese!"

"Too insidious!"

The Japanese captain was anxious and angry. He evaded very quickly.

Those who can be captains are all veterans. When they find something is wrong, they protect their own lives as soon as possible.

The other Japanese invaders who were not hit by the bomb also quickly got down and looked for places to hide.

Then I discovered that this was an open area and there was no place to hide.

I can only lie down and resign myself to fate.

You can hide in the valley behind, but no Japanese invaders dared to go back.

There are mountains on both sides of the canyon. If there are enemies ambushing on the mountains, it will be more dangerous in the canyon.

what to do?

He can only be beaten passively.

"Boom boom boom..."

"Tu tu tu tu..."

The sound of terror was ruthlessly harvested.

Zhang Yong held up the telescope and secretly regretted that the distance was still too far.

If the distance is about 200 meters, concentrated fire from Garand semi-automatic rifles will cause greater casualties to the Japanese invaders.

However, everything has pros and cons.

If it is an ambush 200 meters away, it is almost impossible to succeed. Because the Japanese invaders cannot remain indifferent to 200 meters away. They will definitely send elite soldiers to investigate.

Once the gun fires, the other Japanese invaders will know about it and they will not be able to cover it with firepower.

War is really a profound knowledge. Zhang Yong is still a layman.

"Fight back!"

"Fight back!"

One day the Japanese invaders roared hysterically.

Some Japanese veterans who reacted quickly raised their guns and shot.

Snap hook!

Snap hook!

Sharp gunshots rang out.

By the moonlight, they gradually found where the incoming enemy was.

The distance is very far.

All used were mortars.

Beyond 400 meters, the rifle is basically blind fire.

"Set up the artillery!"

"Set up the artillery!"

The Japanese invaders shouted angrily.

They are group headquarters, and they also carry mortars. They are also 90mm.

"What a bastard!"

“The response is quite fast!”

Zhang Yong saw it through the telescope.

It must be admitted that the Japanese invaders were indeed well-trained.

After being hit by such fierce firepower, they did not collapse and were able to fight back.

If it were an ordinary unit of the national army, it would have been disbanded long ago.

This is the quality gap.

You don't have to admit it. However, the Japanese invaders' combat skills are better than yours.

Now they lack actual combat experience, so they still have shortcomings. Once they gain actual combat experience after one or two years of fighting, it will be very scary.

Therefore, in 1939 or 1940, a single regiment of Japanese invaders dared to run rampant on the battlefield. There was no other way, it depended on how strong others were.

Even in the face of tens of thousands of national troops, a single regiment of Japanese invaders dared to launch an attack.

The Japanese 11th Army, with a total strength of only a few hundred thousand, suppressed the Chinese army in several theaters and was unable to move.

well……

"boom……"

Suddenly, a shell exploded nearby.

It was a 90mm artillery shell from the Japanese invaders. The explosion was very powerful.

An M2 large-caliber heavy machine gun was hit. Several soldiers were injured or killed. The heavy machine gun immediately misfired.

Made.

He scolded his mother secretly.

Damn it, the shot was so accurate.

"boom……"

"boom……"

Fortunately, the 81mm artillery shells on our side are not bad either.

The shells continued to fire, and the shells continued to explode, blowing up the open space over and over again. The number of red dots became obviously sparse.

"boom……"

However, the Japanese invaders' 90mm mortars were still powerful.

This Japanese brigade headquarters did not carry the 92 infantry gun, but three 90mm mortars.

The hysterical Japanese invaders launched a crazy counterattack. The artillery shells were also very violent.

"boom……"

"boom……"

Artillery battle between the two sides.

There are constant casualties.

Zhang Yong wanted to blow up the Japanese mortars, but failed.

The smoke was so thick that you couldn't even see the location of the Japanese mortars. There were so many weapons symbols on the map that you couldn't distinguish them.

Grass!

I can only scold my mother.

Then he calmed down again.

That's what fighting is like.

There is no one-sided battle situation unless the right time, right place, right people, and everyone's cooperation.

The Japanese invaders are like a brigade! They are not good friends.

Under normal circumstances, a few hundred Japanese invaders would dare to pursue and kill one or two thousand national troops!

what to do?

Keep blasting!

Let's see who can persevere to the end.

Fight for cannonballs!

Fight casualties!

I don't believe it. The Japanese invaders will have more artillery shells than we do!

"boom!"

"boom!"

Sure enough, after a fierce artillery battle, the Japanese invaders' artillery counterattack weakened.

There was an undisguised sneer on Zhang Yong's lips.

Small sample.

Are there no shells left?

You're not carrying too many shells, are you?

good!

Then it's my turn!

Keep blasting!

I have cannonballs! Haha! I'll blow you up until you're all dead!

"Baga!"

"This is no ordinary national army!"

"There are so many artillery shells! And anti-aircraft machine guns!"

"Quick! Report!"

The Japanese captain did not realize that he had encountered Zhang Yong.

Subconsciously, it felt that the Chinese national army on the opposite side was not simple. It must report to the wing headquarters immediately and then request support.

Although, it also knows very well that support will definitely be too late.

The opponent's artillery fire was too brutal.

It didn’t stop at all! It kept bombarding!

"Nani?"

"An anti-aircraft machine gun?"

"Zhang Yong?"

The wing headquarters received the call and responded immediately.

Damn it. It could be Zhang Yong!

Among so many Chinese armies, only Zhang Yong's army has large-caliber anti-aircraft machine guns.

Moreover, the general Chinese army keeps anti-aircraft machine guns as weapons at the bottom of the box, to be used at critical times. It is impossible to move them out at ordinary times.

Only Zhang Yong would do this. As soon as the battle started, he directly launched the anti-aircraft machine gun.

Anti-aircraft fire leveling, military court.

Baga!

This Zhang Yong has no moral ethics at all!

They actually use anti-aircraft machine guns to bully the infantry! How hateful! Can the infantry block the anti-aircraft machine guns?

Immediately report to the brigade department.

The Brigade and Regiment Headquarters reported to the Division and Regiment Headquarters.

"Nani?"

"Maybe Zhang Yong is no longer in Dayingpan?"

"impossible!"

After receiving the report, Kawagishi Bunzaburo suddenly went crazy.

He mobilized heavy troops to surround the camp and surrounded it with water.

He was obsessed with crushing Zhang Yong to ashes.

As a result, you tell me, Zhang Yong may not be in Dayingpan at all. But on the outside of his own encirclement?

Baga!

Its cheeks suddenly twisted.

Zhang Yong!

Its a nightmare!

Just thinking of this name gives me a headache!

"impossible!"

"impossible!"

Bunzaburo Kawagishi warned himself repeatedly.

Zhang Yong was in Dayingpan and was reported by Xiangyue Qingsi. There was no way he could be mistaken.

On the other hand, if Zhang Yong is indeed not in Dayingpan, then Xiangyue Qingsi made a mistake. It is the responsibility of the First Army Headquarters.

If Zhang Yong is indeed in the camp, but the 20th Division did not eliminate him, but went to other places to mess around, then it is the responsibility of the 20th Division. It is the responsibility of Bunzaburo Kawagishi. At this moment,

He appears to be very sensitive about taking responsibility.

Because it is currently in a state of acquitting itself with meritorious deeds. If it continues to make mistakes, no one will speak for it anymore.

When the time comes, the lightest punishment is to be transferred to the reserve force and get out of here.

The most severe punishment is, of course, seppuku.

"Your Excellency General..."

"Continue to siege the camp!"

"Tie!"

The chief of staff agreed.

Continue to order the troops to attack the camp.

As for the attacks on the periphery, they were "judged" to be a Chinese plan to encircle Wei and rescue Zhao.

The purpose was just to create an illusion and attract the Japanese army to abandon the encirclement, thereby rescuing Zhang Yong and others who were trapped in the center of the encirclement.

…

"boom……"

Another artillery shell exploded next to Zhang Yong.

The distance was only more than thirty meters. The soil kicked up by the explosion covered his whole body.

Suddenly his face turned gray. His eyes, nostrils, ears, and mouth were all covered in mud.

"Pooh!"

"Pooh!"

Spitting continuously.

Spit out the dirt in your mouth.

I found that the soil was burnt and contained a strong smell of gunpowder smoke.

There were dozens of Japanese invaders.

They are stubbornly resisting.

At the same time, Japanese reinforcements arrived one after another from other directions.

"Keep banging!"

"Keep blowing!"

Zhang Yong was also furious.

Under normal circumstances, he would choose to retreat.

There is no need to fight head-on with the Japanese invaders.

However, the Japanese mortars made him very angry.

Two of the Japanese invaders' three 90mm mortars have been blown up. The last one is left.

Two of the six 81mm mortars brought by Zhang Yong were also blown up. Now the ratio is four to one.

Damn it! Give it your all!

Tonight, the night is so beautiful, we must wipe out all the enemies!

"superior!"

"superior!"

Start shrinking the surrounding circle.

As the distance gradually shortened, the Garand semi-automatic rifle began to exert its power.

"boom……"

Finally, the last mortar of the Japanese invaders was blown up.

Prior to this, the Japanese aggressor captain and the radio station had also been blown up. There were less than thirty Japanese aggressors remaining.

Keep fighting.

The whole army is pressing forward!

"Bang bang!"

"Bang bang!"

The remaining Japanese invaders finally couldn't bear it anymore.

They had to flee back along the narrow valley. They thought they could survive this way.

However……

Zhang Yong immediately directed the mortar bombardment.

Run into the valley? Great! Cannonballs can be fired more accurately.

"boom……"

"boom……"

Sure enough, after some bombing, the red dots continued to decrease.

In the end, only five red dots managed to escape.

Pity.

There was no total annihilation.

But it doesn't matter.

Killing more than two hundred Japanese invaders is already very satisfying.

"withdraw!"

Zhang Yong gave the order decisively.

Withdraw directly from the battlefield.

Go back to the rear.

rest.

Heal.

Supplement dry food.

I have almost eaten dry food.

Originally everyone had prepared dry food for five days, but it was all used up in advance.

Facts have proved that fighting in mountainous areas consumes a lot of energy.

withdraw!

Withdraw directly from the battlefield.

There are wounded that need to be treated. Brother units must be found.

Rely on the map's instructions and evacuate northwest in an orderly manner.

A large number of armed white spots appear on the edge of the map.

One of the white dots actually has a logo.

Check.

It was discovered that it was Wang Zhonglian, commander of the 89th Division.

Huh?

Wang Zhonglian?

Eighty-nine Division?

Actually here?

Accident.

The last time I met Wang Zhonglian was in Nanchang!

After not seeing each other for a few months, he actually brought his troops to northern Shanxi. This transfer is indeed a bit long distance!

Report identity.

Soon, Wang Zhonglian appeared.

Yes, it is indeed him.

Commander of the 89th Division. Wang Zhonglian. Huangpu Phase I.

"Commissioner Zhang!"

"Mr. Wang!"

Wang Zhonglian was very happy.

Zhang Yong also breathed a sigh of relief.

If you have acquaintances, it will be easier to do things.

shake hands.

Wang Zhonglian is very enthusiastic.

The last time he was in Nanchang, he had dealt with Zhang Yong.

At that time, Long Muhan was still his deputy. Now, Long Muhan has gone to the 230th Division as the division commander.

Although the 230th Division is from the Sichuan Army and is a miscellaneous unit, there are more than 20,000 people!

What's more, as long as you follow Zhang Yong, you will no longer be an unknown person. You will be a true direct lineage. A direct lineage among direct lineages, okay?

An army of more than 20,000 people will become an army at any time. It just needs to be changed to a different designation. The division commander will also become a corps commander!

Long Muhan made a triple jump in an instant! From deputy division commander to corps commander!

"please."

"please."

Wang Zhonglian invited Zhang Yong to come to the division headquarters.

Here, Zhang Yong finally saw hot rice. At the same time, there was actually a place to take a bath.

It's a small stream and a big pool in the mountain behind.

The water in the pool is very clear and cool.

Zhang Yong then ignored everything, stripped naked, and jumped into the pool.

ah……

It's so comfortable.

Soak in the pool water and wash away all the stains on your body.

Then I put on clean clothes and felt like I was finally alive again.

"please."

"please."

Wang Zhonglian prepared the meal.

Zhang Yong is not polite either. Sit down and enjoy your meal.

Of course, there was no fresh meat. But there was bacon. At that time, this was considered a patent for high-ranking military officers.

When fighting on the front line, it is difficult to get meat. But bacon can be carried.

As for the officer's privileges, let's leave that aside.

The Red Party only values ​​equality between officers and soldiers. In the National Army, officers definitely have privileges.

"Well……"

Eat enough.

Burping.

Comfortable...

Suddenly he reacted.

Huh?

Doesn’t the 89th Division have combat missions?

"today……"

"The Japanese invaders have temporarily stopped their attack."

"Why?"

"Maybe it's because of the fighting in the south."

"South?"

"Don't you know yet? Yesterday, on the Songhu side, we concentrated five divisions and launched an attack on the Japanese in the Japanese-occupied area of ​​​​Hongkou."

"oh……"

Only then did Zhang Yong react.

It turns out that fighting started on the Songhu battlefield over there! No wonder.

But I really don’t know.

Both of them are fighting the Japanese invaders in the mountains and ditches! They have completely cut off ties with the outside world.

The war has begun...

A new beginning.

"It is easy for our five divisions to deal with thousands of Japanese invaders!" Wang Zhonglian was very happy.

"Of course! The committee will win!" Zhang Yong said without hesitation.

As the number one loser with a bald head, of course I have to flatter him hard.

The development of the battle situation on the Songhu battlefield will soon exceed Bald's expectations. There were many twists and turns in the beginning, and then it took a sharp turn.

That is to say, in the first two days, yes, at most two days, there may be some good news. From the third day on, it will be bad news. Either the troops will suffer heavy casualties. Or the attack will be seriously frustrated. In short, it will be a mess. But the butt is on fire.

.

well……

but!

He, Zhang Yong, absolutely cannot clarify all of this at this moment.

You can't tell Wang Zhonglian, in fact, I have known for a long time that the Battle of Songhu was very difficult to fight.

Look, is it bad now? If you had listened to me earlier...

Blah blah blah...

When I turned around, I was punished by the bald man.

What a bald man hates most is having his scars exposed.

If anyone mentioned the Northwest Incident or that he ran away in his nightgown in the middle of the night, he would definitely get angry with him.

"Such a big happy event should come to light!"

"You can't drink alcohol in the military."

"Then let's have tea instead of wine. I wish the committee a great success!"

"good!"

The two sat down to drink tea.

Soon, Deputy Army Commander Bao Gang and 4th Division Commander Wang Wanling also arrived.

At this moment, Tang Enbo still serves as the concurrent commander of the Thirteenth Army. Bao Gang is the deputy commander. It will take a few months for him to become a full-time commander.

Everyone seemed very optimistic about the war in the south.

That's for sure.

The number of Japanese invaders was small.

The five divisions participating in the battle were all German weapon divisions.

They are all the main force among the main forces!

Each division has more than 10,000 troops and the most sophisticated equipment.

There are only a few thousand Japanese marines. Eliminate them and capture them easily.

"I bring you the latest good news!"

"The National Air Force shot down twelve Japanese fighter jets this afternoon!"

Bao Gang also brought good news.

This is the good news released by the National Air Force. It has just been reported to the entire army.

"so much?"

Zhang Yong was also a little surprised.

He is not on the front line. I don’t know if this record is worth it.

If not, it means it is normal.

The BA-65 fighter jet is a fighter jet after all. It is still very powerful.

Unfortunately, there are no further details.

As a result, the atmosphere became very lively.

Drinking is not allowed.

But other entertainment projects are available.

Several people deliberately curry favor with Zhang Yong, but Zhang Yong also refused to accept anyone who came.

It seems more and more that he, Hu Zongnan, and Tang Enbo, two idiots, are getting closer to each other.

By the way, there is still one more Liu Zhi left. If he is added, there will be four idiots.

Four major families...

Four big straw bags...

Perfect!

Have a noisy day. Then go to sleep.

Confused...

In a daze...

Suddenly I heard someone calling me.

"Commissioner."

"Commissioner."

I opened my eyes and found that it was Wang Zhonglian.

So he stretched and sat up.

"Is something wrong?"

"Commissioner, the attendant's office sent an urgent telegram, asking you to return to Jinling immediately."

"Looking for me?"

Zhang Yong slowly stood up.

Attendant's room?

Return to Jinling?

So what?

"What day is it today?"

"August 16th."

"August 16th..."

Zhang Yong counted the time. The Songhu battlefield had only been fought for three days!

how?

Can't even last three days?

no……

I gave you so many weapons and ammunition!

It seems that two 75mm artillery battalions were also given!

result……

Can’t last even three days?

This is really...

After all, they are also five main divisions!

"Why did you ask me to go back?"

"Maybe I want to invite you to participate in negotiations with the Japanese invaders."

"negotiation?"

"Yes. We are about to win a great victory. It's time to put forward conditions."

"oh……"

Zhang Yong's expression became very strange.

A big win?

Put forward conditions?

No, the purpose of being bald is actually negotiation?

Wow. He still harbors fantasies!

They thought that by taking Hongkou, they could force the Japanese invaders to accept peace talks.

Once the Japanese invaders accept the peace talks, they will definitely make another mistake. They will overturn all previous commitments and continue to use troops against the Red Party.

well……

What are these things called?

Tired.

Don't want to go back.

There is no point in going back at this time.

Others are "successful" and are getting excited.

What did he do when he went back?

reject?

certainly.

No need to think about reasons.

Because there is no way to go back to Jinling "immediately".

Why immediately?

Where are the planes?

The nearest airport is in Peking.

Then there is Taiyuan.

Would the Japanese invaders let him board the plane in Peiping and then fly back to Jinling? Of course it was impossible.

Then, the only option is to go to Taiyuan.

Fly from Taiyuan to Xi'an. Or fly to Luoyang. Then transfer to Jinling.

I'm afraid many days have passed since I came and went.

At least, it will take two or three days to return to Taiyuan from Juyongguan.

Why immediately?

Der immediately!

"Commissioner..."

"Call me back and say I'm trying to find a way to go back."

"yes."

Wang Zhonglian agreed and went.

Zhang Yong:……

Many ideas come to mind.

But in the end they all disappeared without a trace.

Jinling...

Songhu...

well!

[To be continued]
Chapter completed!
