Among the shocked people, there was a small firecracker. He created such a result. He had never seen such a tragic and bloody scene. He was so scared that his face turned pale and he couldn't help vomiting!

Even Gao Dapeng, who was used to seeing the bloody scene, felt a slight spasm in his stomach. This kind of scene is probably a rare opportunity to see in his life!

The limbs were completely broken, and there was no way to see a whole, scarlet blood, pale brain, a wave of heat blew, and the smoke mixed with the strong bloody smell. Many soldiers vomited out the lunch that had not yet been digested!

Colonel Izo, the captain of the 7th regiment of the 6th Japanese Brigade on the other side, was stunned, and the floating bridge on the river was also shattered by the air waves.

"Baga, the Chinese army actually buried ** under its trench!" Colonel Izo's eyes turned red in an instant. This was simply crazy. They didn't know that if a shell hit deep enough and detonated it, would they all die without a burial place?

"These Chinese people are different from what we have seen!" Tadayan Anichiro also frowned slightly, remembering what Itagaki Seishiro reminded him.

I thought Seishiro Itagaki was a coward, but now it seems that he has dealt with this "Tong Zong", and his words are completely unreasonable!

This is a cunning and cruel opponent!

Of course, Wanichiro Tashiyo did not really take the "East Zong" to heart. As a veteran who has been in the army for more than 30 years, he has experienced many evil and bloody battles. Although these scenes are rare, they are definitely not unavailable, and they are much more tragic than this!

What's more, the Chinese army has been reluctant to use its heavy firepower, and the mortar position that was suddenly exposed has been cut off by itself.

Next, it’s time for the Chinese to taste the power of the warriors of the Great Japanese Empire!

"Order Colonel Izo to organize an attack immediately and defeat the enemy on the other side in one fell swoop!" Tadayan Anichiro calmly issued a combat order.

"Chief of Staff, attack at this time..."

"This is the best time to attack, the Chinese people have no artillery, and now their mortars are destroyed by us. They have been bluffing!"

"Hai!" What can the combat staff say? The Chief of Staff is a famous China Communications. Isn't it because of this consideration that the division commander and the Kwantung Army handed over the command of this battle?

"The Japanese are going to attack. Let Lao Xia retreat!" Bao Jinghua, who was observing the movements of the Japanese on the other side, said to the communications staff beside him.

"Retreat now?"

"Retreat, you can't drag it down any longer. The Japanese will inevitably take revenge fiercely next. This time we are not going to fight against the Japanese, and we cannot use the flesh and blood of the soldiers to force the Japanese steel cannons. In this way, even if we win in the end, we will be greatly damaged!" Bao Jinghua said.

This is also the strategy formulated by Lu Shan. First, then retreat, so as to avoid the retreat if the battle is to be defeated!

The strategy of luring the enemy into deep. The commander knows it in his heart, but the soldiers don’t know it, so the control of the rhythm of the battle depends entirely on the commander’s performance on the spot!

The victory of one or two battles will not change the Japanese army's overall view of the Eastern Region, but the effect of encouraging the morale of the Eastern Region is undoubtedly huge.

If you win a battle and retreat, you will undoubtedly become calmer and will not be distracted.

The Japanese's new round of artillery fire was ready. Xia Fuxing received Bao Jinghua's order and immediately conveyed the order to the companies and battalions.

No one understands why the battle was good, but he had to evacuate, but the order is the order. At the beginning of the war, obeying the order was emphasized at the military meeting. Whoever does not obey the order can implement battlefield discipline!

Therefore, although the commanders of the battalions and companies who received the order did not understand, they immediately took action to withdraw from the position.

This round of artillery fire covers much more violently than before. In just five minutes, the Japanese army tilted nearly a thousand artillery shells on the second position!

Not only did the position fall into a sea of ​​fire, but it was bombed beyond recognition, and basically no one inch of land was spared.

Such intensive shelling was the first time since the war started, and it was even more violent than when the attack was just now!

The 5th and 7th companies that were covering the retreat had just emerged from the trench, and the place they had just walked was buried in the explosion.

If this was a step at night, it would probably be buried alive by the soil.

Gao Dapeng pulled the pale face all the way, and the confused little firecracker ran along the passage in the trench!

The third defensive line is the last line of defense of the 202nd Regiment. If this line of defense is broken, the 202nd Regiment will have to retreat to Baijiagou.

"Appoint Xia Fuxing to resist for a moment, make a look of heavy casualties, quickly retreat to Baijiagou, and strengthen the defense of the Niulanpo highland!" Bao Jinghua ordered.

"yes!"

Bao Jinghua knew that the Japanese army was coming with great force, with large numbers and strong firepower, and Baijiagou could not defend it. If he fought hard, the more than 4,000 people under his command might be able to deal with the Japanese, but the Japanese would definitely suffer much less casualties than him.

Although the Japanese and puppet troops are suffering a lot of casualties now, they are all caused by underestimating the enemy's aggressive advance when they are not familiar with the warfare techniques of the East Column. Once the Japanese are familiar with the warfare techniques, with their powerful firepower, the East Column is simply unable to fight against the Japanese army without any advantage in all aspects!

This is the gap in his own strength. Bao Jinghua also feels that he is rogue, his country is poor and his military and political chaos.

This made him deeply feel the importance and urgency of some of the list of independent national defense industry and scientific and technological inventions proposed by Lu Shan!

This little brother, who is a few years younger than him, is really extraordinary. He is deeply impressed now.

Isn’t Bao Jinghua’s dream of abandoning his pen and joining the army under the leadership of such a person?

Colonel Izo personally led his men to the second front, but what he saw was a seriously damaged and collapsed position. He didn't know how much casualties the opponent had caused by the shelling just now, but now they have completely occupied this front!

"Yaoxi, Izojun is still so brave!" Major General Akiyama exclaimed.

"Report. The Chinese army is here. Here, a third line of defense has been established!" The intelligence consultant pointed to several small hills on the map and said to Major General Akiyama.

"Well, order the troops to cross the river immediately!" Major General Akiyama said, "At the same time, he reported to the Chief of Staff, saying that we have successfully occupied the east coast!"

"Hayi!"

A large number of Japanese troops began to move forward, and Japanese engineers were constantly repairing the bombed bridges. The pontoon bridge could not withstand the weight of cars and armored vehicles, so a solid bridge must be repaired to pass smoothly. Otherwise, some heavy equipment would not be able to pass.

The Japanese army began to tentatively bombard the air balloon, observe and calibrate the shooting elements for the artillery below.

The shells fell down one by one, and near the third defensive front of the 202nd Regiment. A violent explosion sounded, which filled the hearts of the soldiers hiding behind the sack with anger.

"***, if our artillery brigade was not there, would it be your turn to be so arrogant?"

"That's right, who made us not have artillery?"

"This battle is so frustrating...

"Okay, don't complain. The Japanese have ones, we will have them in the future, I've heard that. This time we snatched a lot of good things from the Japanese. It won't take long before we can build cannons and planes. It's impossible for the Japanese to bully us again!"

"Catch the Japanese back to their hometown!"

"Yes, go back to your hometown!"

"It seems that the Japanese are planning to take Meihekou today!" Bao Jinghua said to the two leaders of Xia Fuxing and Wendianjia.

"Hmph, it may not be that easy to take down Meihekou!" Wen Dianjia snorted angrily.

"Report, the headquarters call. Our anti-aircraft artillery battalion and anti-aircraft machine gun battalion won a big victory and beat off at least eighteen Japanese aircraft!" The communications officer rushed into the command center with a happy expression.

"Haha..." The three of them laughed happily when they heard this.

"I said why didn't the Japanese drive the plane? It turned out that they were going to our headquarters, but they didn't expect that we would have air defense weapons!" Bao Jinghua laughed.

"The headquarters said that this time it was a lucky victory. After the Japanese suffered a great loss, they would retaliate wildly. We asked us to be careful not to fight hard, and give up what they should give up. What the Japanese got was just empty cities!"

"I understand, reply to the headquarters, Bao Jinghua will definitely live up to the entrusted by Commander-in-Chief Lu!" Bao Jinghua said seriously.

"Yes!" The communications consultant went out after saluting.

"It seems that the Japanese will receive the news soon. I'm afraid this battle will be difficult to fight. Lao Xia, your regiment should not retain its strength. Beat the Japanese hard and then withdraw!" Bao Jinghua said.

"Okay, it will take a certain amount of time for the Japanese to attack. Their heavy equipment is still on the west bank of the river. It is estimated that half an hour will be left. Their armored vehicles and cars will be here. Their artillery positions are still on the other side. If I have a direct team in my hand, I will wait until it gets dark..."

"Old Xia, even if you have one, we cannot act rashly. Don't forget our mission, not to block the enemy, but to lure the enemy!" Bao Jinghua said.

"yes!"

The Japanese engineers were sweating profusely to repair the bridge so that heavy equipment could cross the river. At least one infantry had already concentrated on the east bank of the river, and the command of the Seventh Regiment moved with him, but the brigade headquarters of the Sixth Brigade was still on the west bank. The brigade commander Major General Akiyama was studying how to attack with his subordinates.

"Report, the latest battle report of the command center!"

"Nani?" Major General Akiyama took the message suspiciously and asked in surprise, wondering, was it the guy Inoue to the 14th Division or the 18th Brigade?

But when he saw the content of the telegram, his eyes suddenly widened, and the Imperial Japanese Army Air Force actually suffered an unprecedented defeat!

He lost nineteen fighter jets at once, which was more than he lost during the Battle of Shanghai.

How did these damn Chinese people do it? Major General Akiyama thought gritted his teeth.

At this time, Tadayan Ichiro also received news that the Kwantung Army Flight Team suffered another crushing defeat. His face was not very good, but the Kwantung Army Flight Team had little to do with the Ninth Division!

The Imperial Japanese Army still can fight without planes and still tear the enemy to pieces. Tashiyo Wanichiro hopes to defeat the enemy in front of him as fast as possible and complete the first plan in his heart.

"Tell Akiyama not to interfere with this boring battle report, and make every effort to prepare for the attack. I will take down Baijiagou in one fell swoop and spend the night in Meihekou Town today!" Tian Dayan Anichiro gave the order calmly!

"Hayi!"

Taday Wanichiro did not take this battle report seriously, but the Kwantung Army was not good enough and was attacked by the Dongta Airport by the East Column. It can be said that he was unprepared. This time, the Sixth Air Wing, which had absolute air superiority, lost to the Chinese, or so many aircraft were shot down by ground air defense weapons!

Colonel Akino from the Sixth Air Force stood in front of Muto Nobuyi, and he didn't dare to breathe. After such a big defeat, he lost all the Kanto Flying Team. You can imagine what a bleak ending he would change next!

In Muto's Nobuyi's office, the newly-owned "Sakura Brand" electric fan was constantly blowing towards him.

But Akino couldn't feel a hint of chill. Instead, there were more and more sweat beads on his forehead and his back was wet.

"Akino, the first lesson of the General Staff has a top-secret task. If you can complete it, there is still a chance to wash away this shame. If you can't do it, then give it a piece of the stomach to thank the Emperor!" Muto Nobuyoshi did not angrily or scold him, but stared at him for nearly ten minutes and said calmly.

"Thank you, General. Akino will definitely live up to your expectations!" Akino was extremely ecstatic when he heard this.

"Go, take your plane to Fengtian to find Colonel Itagaki!" Muto Nobuyoshi waved.

"Hayi!"

Muto Nobuyi breathed a sigh of relief. He just now refused to get angry. At this time, even if he killed Akino, he could not recover the losses. It would be better to give him a chance to atone for his sins, so that he would definitely work hard for his future.

The Kwantung Army has suffered consecutive failures. Although he has just taken office not long ago, the board will still fall on his head after he is defeated!

The rash war has caused many domestic and international dissatisfaction. The League of Nations investigation team is still in Xinjing. Their Chinese representative comes to protest almost every day!

But they couldn't touch such a person, because the previous attempted assassination scandal had just passed. If something happened to Dr. Gu, the image of the Japanese Empire in the international field would be damaged again!

Although European and American countries have not yet emerged from the shadow of the economic crisis, they still need Japan, a huge market, to buy the products they produce, and to curb and fight against the Red Soviet Union. They all need Japan as an ally in terms of economic, political and military.

No matter morally speaking, or in the values ​​of the East and the West, no one dares to say in front of the world that "murdering" a diplomat in a country is a just act!

"Report, the base camp is in urgent need of electricity!"

"What's the matter?"

"The five countries of the United States, Britain, France, Germany and Italy submitted applications to the League of Nations, hoping that the five countries could establish a special military observation team to conduct on-site observations on this joint bandit suppression operation launched by the Empire and Manchuria!"

"What, this is so ridiculous, it is impossible. The Japanese Empire will never accept such a proposal to lose power and humiliate the country!" Muto Nobuyoshi said angrily.

"The Empire has solemnly refused. The base camp means to send the League of Nations investigation team away as soon as possible. They have been in Manchuria for a long enough time!"

"Well, I understand, let Masahiko Kasu come to see me!" Muto Nobuyoshi calmed down and ordered.
Chapter completed!
