Nearly two years have passed since the full war between China and Japan started. An indisputable fact is that in the past two years of war, the Chinese army lost too many veterans and its combat effectiveness has declined sharply. Except for a few elite troops, most of the other national troops, even the direct central army of Principal Chang, have a combat effectiveness that is not as good as before.

But this is not the case with the Japanese army. After the two years of war, the Japanese army trained a large number of new recruits.

During the two-year battle, nearly one million Japanese recruits gained extremely valuable combat experience and quickly grew into veterans with rich field experience.

For example, the Japanese lieutenant who was leading the team was just a non-commissioned officer who had just graduated from the Army Non-commissioned Officer School when participating in the Battle of Songhu. However, after two years, the Japanese became an extremely experienced veteran of the war. With only the gunshots, the Japanese judged that there were only a few miscellaneous soldiers guarding the east gate of Fuyang at this time.

"Go ahead, infantry squad, keep moving forward! Just move forward!"

"Heavy machine gun team, implement fire suppression!"

"Grouton team, two rapid shots!"

"Go forward, move forward!"

The Japanese lieutenant held up a saber, and while making orders, he walked forward with big strides. The Japanese were full of contempt for the Chinese defenders on the city, and he was too lazy to bend his waist.

More than a hundred Japanese infantry accompanying him also held bayonets and walked forward straight.

The two Type 92 heavy machine guns of the heavy machine gun team have been mounted and fired violently at the head of the East Gate City. The two grenade tubes of the grenade tube team have also been mounted and fired continuously at the East Gate Tower.

...

On the east gate tower of Fuyang County, Ma Fei and more than a dozen patrolmen have already shrunk into a ball.

"Boom!" Two grenades fell on the top of the city, and a dazzling red light was turned up in the violent explosion, followed by black smoke. In the rolling smoke, the two patrol officers had been blown to the ground.

"Old Qi!" Ma Fei was about to come forward to observe, and there were two more bangs.

In the violent explosion, Ma Fei's body was blown up into the air.

By the time he fell from the air, Ma Fei's entire body was stained with blood, and one of his right arm disappeared from below his elbow, leaving only half of the bones.

"Damn, I fuck your ancestor!"

A patrolman couldn't stand the stimulation and stood up with a Hanyang rifle.

The next moment, a dazzling tongue of flame whipped over like a whip, and threw the patrolman to the ground.

When the other two nearby patrolmen crawled over to check, they saw that the patrolmen's chest had been sieve and blood was gushing out like a fountain.

The remaining patrolmen were shrunk into a group and were at a loss.

At this moment, the gunshots and explosions suddenly stopped.

Several patrolmen seemed to realize something, and looked back quickly and saw a dozen Japanese soldiers rushing to the top of the city with bayonets. The bright bayonet reflected a dazzling cold light under the setting sun.

"Damn it, grandpa is fighting with you!" A patrolman didn't even get a bayonet and rushed forward with a rifle.

A short and strong Japanese man came up and looked at the patrolman rushing over, with a look of disdain on his face.

In a blink of an eye, the Chinese patrolman rushed to the Japanese and saw the Japanese, following the standard infantry warrior, with one lunge and another stabbing, and the sharp bayonet accurately penetrated the Chinese patrolman's mind.

The Chinese patrolman suddenly paused, and then his body collapsed.

At this time, the other Japanese had stabbed the remaining patrolmen to death.

Faced with the Japanese infantry who had experienced countless wars, the Chinese patrolman who had never touched even rifles, was no match for it at all. This was simply a one-sided massacre.

Only Ma Fei pulled a grenade with his only left hand.

Unfortunately, the Japanese reacted too quickly and they all avoided it.

After the explosion, the Fuyang East Gate Tower returned to silence again.

Under the city tower, teams of Japanese soldiers were entering one after another.

...

Half an hour later, at the 13th Japanese Army Command of Shanghai.

Changjun walked into the war room with a telegram again and reported: "Reported, Fujijing Brigade Telegram, the Fourth Squadron of the First Battalion of the Forward Infantry Brigade has captured Fuyang County without any casualties."

"I understand." Hinata Zhimei received the telegram, and Nagato turned around and left.

However, before leaving, Changjun glanced at the sand table.

Compared with the last time, the situation of the enemy and us on the sand table has not changed much.

Hinata Shiaki walked to Usa Mitsuto and stood attentively and reported: "His Chief of Staff, the Fujii Brigade has just captured Fuyang Prefecture, and there are no casualties."

"Oh? No casualties?" Before Usa Mirō could speak, a voice suddenly penetrated, "Has the combat power of the Chinese army actually reached this point?"

Usa Mitaka and Hinata Shiaki turned around quickly and saw that Commander Nishio Suzuo had come.

"His Excellency Commander-in-Chief!" Usa Mitsunobu, Hinata Shiaki and a group of staff in the war room bowed together.

"Keep yours." Nishio Suzuo waved his hand to signal the combat staff to continue the sand table work, and then walked to the two of Usa Mitsuki and Hinata Shiaki.

Nishio Suzuo asked again: "Usa Mikun, is the war going well?"

"Hayi, it went very smoothly." Usa Mirone said, "It was even smoother than expected. Not only did the 22nd Division land in Wenzhou Bay without any resistance, but the 11th Brigade independently advanced along the north of Fuchun River and did not encounter decent resistance. If the advancement speed is at most, it will only take half a month to occupy central and western Zhejiang."

Nishio Shouzuo nodded and thoughtfully said, "Is this Zhong Yi's mobile war?"

"Hai." Usa Mirone said first, "Your Excellency, the commander-in-chief, Hu Yi has been thinking about the so-called mobile wars these days, and will have repeated discussions with Hinata Shijun and the staff of the General Staff. After discussion, we unanimously believe that Zhong Yi's mobile wars should be what Sun Tzu talks about in the Art of War to avoid the real and attack the virtual."

"Avoid the real and attack the virtual?" Nishio Shouzao, "How to avoid the real and attack the virtual method?"

Usa Mitsunobu said: "Simply put, it is not a direct contact with our attacking troops, but deploying troops on the flanks to attack the Imperial Army's baggage troops. This tactic is actually not new at all."

"Oh, is that?" Nishio Suzusaki said, "Have you seen such a tactic?"
