Chapter 1691 Soldiers approach the city
Meanwhile, in Xidang City.
Yang Sen was accompanied by Li Yueshen, commander of the 133rd Division, inspecting the defense deployment in Xidang City.
Since Xi was just a small city with a limited area and could not deploy the forces of two divisions, Yang Sen could only separate the two divisions under his command, one outside and the other inside.
Li Yueshen's 133rd Division is responsible for the city's defense.
Luo Yuan's 134th Division was responsible for the defense outside the city.
Li Yueshen said to Yang Sen as he walked: "Master, we have renovated the houses in the city as much as possible, and all the cellars have been reinforced to withstand direct bombing of 100 kilograms of aerial bombardment. In addition, according to your requirements, we have also reserved artillery positions in the east area of the city."
"East of the city?" Yang Sen said in surprise, "Why should the artillery position be placed in the city?"
After pausing, Yang Sen said again: "Don't you know that the Japanese came from the east and the east of the city is closer to the Japanese. Wouldn't it be more likely to be retaliated against by the Japanese artillery fire?"
"Otherwise." Li Yueshen waved his hand and pointed to the two reinforced concrete buildings in front of him and said, "Look, this is the Railway Bureau building built by the British colonial government. The structure is very strong. I put the artillery position behind these two buildings, which can avoid the retaliation of the Japanese artillery."
"That's it." Yang Sen said suddenly, "How strong are these two buildings?"
Li Yueshen replied without hesitation: "It is enough to withstand the direct hit of the 500kg bomb."
"That's true, it's very strong." Yang Sen said again, "By the way, just open the first floors of these two buildings to hide the tanks of the Armored Brigade. This is much better than hiding the tanks in the houses."
"It has been opened." Li Yueshen blinked his eyes and said, "More than 100 Vicks light tanks from the 1st Armored Brigade have been driven in."
"So you guys have thought of it for a long time." Yang Sen laughed.
Yang Sen became more and more satisfied with his direct division commander.
While the two were talking, a fierce quarrel suddenly broke out in front of them.
Yang Sen frowned and said, "What's going on before? What are you quarreling?"
A guard immediately stepped forward to report: "Reported that the people from the Intelligence Department caught a Burmese spy."
"Catch a spy?" Yang Sen's expression darkened and said coldly, "Take it up, I want to see it. After eating Xiongxin, I dare to go to my territory."
A few seconds later, two Chinese students in Zhongshan suits escorted a dark-faced young man to Yang Sen and Li Yueshen.
One of the Chinese students saluted Yang Sen and said loudly: "Wei Yong, captain of the Ninth Operation Team of the Military Intelligence Department of the Chief of the Myanmar War Zone, has met Commander-in-Chief Yang."
Yang Sen nodded and said: Captain Wei, is this a matter of the matter?"
Wei Yong reached out and pointed to the young man with his hands behind him, and said coldly: "This dog pretended to be a Chinese and sneaked into Xidang City in the name of a stretcher team. He secretly collected information from the city and drew it into a simple picture, ready to give it to the Japanese outside the city!"
"I didn't pretend, I'm just a Chinese, I was wronged by them!" The young man shouted to Yang Sen, "Sir, you must be fair to me!"
Yang Sen frowned and asked, "Captain Wei, do you have any evidence?"
"Of course, if there is no evidence, how could it be easy for us to arrest people?" Wei Yong sneered and said to the young man, "Then let you see the evidence we have so that you can give up."
After a pause, Wei Yong stepped forward and tore off the young man's dress.
"What are you doing?" exclaimed the young man, "What are you doing?"
General Wei Yong turned over his dress and then sent it to Yang Sen, saying, "Chief Yang, look at it."
When Yang Sen looked closely, he saw a simple picture in the dress. After looking at the simple picture carefully, he found that it was really a simple defense picture in the city.
Even the positions of the artillery battalion were marked out.
"Son of the Turtle, he is really a spy." Yang Sen was furious and immediately took out his pistol and pushed it against the young man's forehead.
The young man was shocked and roared: "You can't kill me, you dare not kill me, my uncle is Bamo!"
"Who is Bamo?" Yang Sen asked, turning his eyes to Wei Yong, but the gun still pointed at the young man's forehead.
"Bamo is considered the Prime Minister of the Myanmar Colonial Government." Wei Yong said, "is a puppet supported by the British."
"It turns out that it's just a puppet." Yang Sen groaned and pulled the trigger immediately. The young man immediately snorted in pain and fell to the ground.
After shooting the spy with one shot, Yang Sen said to Wei Yong again: "Captain Wei, thank you for this time."
"This is nothing." Wei Yong waved his hand and said embarrassedly, "This is what we should do."
Yang Sen nodded lightly and continued: "However, I doubt there are Burmese spies in the city, so you will continue to strengthen the investigation in the next time."
"Yes!" Wei Yong said solemnly, "Please ensure that the task is completed."
Watching Wei Yong leave, Yang Sen said to Li Yueshen: "When did the Intelligence Department come to Xidang City?"
"I just came here three days ago." Li Yue said in a deep voice, "But this Wei Yong is indeed very capable. He found a spy when he came. If it weren't for him, we would be in trouble."
"Yes." Yang Sen said, "Once the Japanese get this simple picture, and then mobilize artillery and the air force to carry out targeted bombing of our main fortifications, that's all."
While the two were talking, the alarm suddenly appeared in the building ahead.
"Alert bell?" Li Yuexing said sternly, "Master, it must be the Japanese who have arrived!"
"Go up and go up and take a look." After Yang Sen said that, he should go to the building ahead first.
In a moment, Yang Sen and Li Yueshen climbed to the rooftop of one of the buildings.
Li Yueshen's division headquarters is located in this building, and he also set up an observation post on the rooftop of the building.
Because Xidang City did not have a wall built, you can clearly see the terrain of more than ten kilometers outside Xidang City from the observation post on the rooftop.
Through the telescope's field of view, you can clearly see it.
The black Japanese soldiers were driving along the railway.
Following the Japanese infantry was a rolling traffic, including armored vehicles, tanks, and a large number of trucks. Many trucks were dragging howitzers behind them.
The howitzer's barrel pointed diagonally into the sky.
It's like the fangs of giant beasts!
The main force of the Japanese 25th Army finally came to the city!
The battle to defend Tin Dang is finally officially beginning!
Chapter completed!
