Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 1000 Liu Zhi comes to take advantage

When the first round of artillery shells and bombs fell, Lieutenant General Tomomi Yamashita, commander of the Japanese 15th Army, was almost carried by a few loyal guards and carried into the cave in front of him. The huge explosion shook the cave.

There was a shaking, the shock wave carried the soil, and it crashed into the cave.{}

As if an invisible giant hand slapped them hard, the Commander and several guards rolled like gourds on the ground and did not stop until they reached the radio station deep in the cave. The few guards did not care that they were fainting.

His head was swollen, and his whole body was burning with pain from the bumps. He quickly helped the commander up.

After all, Yamashita Fengwen was older and couldn't compare with those young guards. He fell hard and his nose unfortunately touched the ground directly. He kissed a protruding stone hard on his forehead and looked at his face.

It was blood, and the commander turned his eyes white. Several guards were frightened, thinking that the general had died a heroic death for his country.

There is an unwritten rule in the Japanese army. If a commander dies in battle and his personal bodyguard is still alive, it is a dereliction of duty and he failed to protect his superior. It is a huge sin. If you are lucky, you will be deprived of military status and sent to prison.

Go to the atonement camps in remote and difficult areas to reflect on your mistakes and atone for the commanders who died in battle.

Those who are unlucky will go to a military court, or be ordered to commit suicide by caesarean section. No one wants the person they are guarding to just kick their legs and have fun. Several guards are busy, some pinch the person, and some perform chest compressions.

I hope I can regain my temper. Yamashita Fengfumi, who was fine at first, almost lost his temper.

Opening his eyes, he cursed with unclear words: "Baga, what are you doing?" Hearing that the commander could still curse, the guards felt relieved. The commander is not dead, so we don't have to follow him and finish him alive.

It feels so good.

Yamashita Fengwen was completely awake, but his legs were weak and he could not stand up. Hearing the violent explosions outside the cave and feeling the numb and numb vibrations under his buttocks, his spirit and will completely collapsed. How could a Chinese person do this?

There are so many planes, so many cannons, and the absolutely terrifying kind of strange cannonballs with long tail flames that cannot be named.

More than 50,000 loyal and brave soldiers of the Japanese Empire were plunged into a death vortex composed of a sea of ​​fire and shrapnel in the blink of an eye. They did not even see the shadow of the enemy soldiers. The brave and capable 15th Army collapsed. Yamashita Fengfumi

Only now do I realize how ridiculous and ignorant I was for mocking Tang Qiuli for not knowing how to use troops. This Chinese devil had no intention of engaging in a head-on battle with the imperial army. He wanted to use overwhelming air and ground firepower to bury the 15th Army.

.

The Fifteenth Army and its own life are about to come to an end. Under such artillery fire and bombing, there are still a few surviving soldiers. There is also an encirclement of the *** Division on the outside. The rescue troops are still in the hundreds.

It's many kilometers away. When they arrive, they should collect the body for me.

Thinking of the reinforcements that were coming, Yamashita's ashen face turned sickly red, and his eyes became slightly lively. In any case, this was the only chance to save his life. "Quickly, send an emergency telegram to the commander-in-chief," Yamashita Fengfumi

He sat on the ground and said hastily.

"Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, at 8 o'clock this morning, the Chinese devil Tang Qiuli's headquarters that surrounded our army launched a joint air-ground three-dimensional attack on me. Thousands of artillery pieces and hundreds of aircraft have completely destroyed our army's defensive positions.

, our unit has suffered heavy casualties, and we sincerely request the Commander-in-Chief to urge the rescue forces to speed up their march. Then Yamashita Fengfumi and all the officers and men of the 15th Army will be extremely grateful to you, Commander-in-Chief, and Yamashita will fight to the death for you."

Looking at the telegram sent by Yamashita Fengfumi, the commander-in-chief of the Southern Expeditionary Forces in Guiyang, Juichi Terauchi, looked miserable. Based on his understanding of Yamashita Fengfumi, he would not beg so humbly unless he was at the end of his rope.

Himself, this shows that the 15th Army has fallen into an extremely dangerous situation.

"Order that the troops marching eastward to Duyun must break through the four passages of Kaimen, Jiangzhou and Pinglang before noon today at all costs to rescue the 15th Army in critical juncture," he thought.

Thinking about it, Juichi Terauchi added another sentence: "If the tenth

The entire fifth army has been shattered, and the body of Lieutenant General Yamashita Fengfumi must be brought back." Terauchi Shouichi has already made the worst plan, and can make the arrogant Yamashita Fengfumi plead with him to rescue him. If it is not a matter of life and death, this

Guys would never do that.

Then, Shou Yiyou in the temple issued a second order, "Assemble the troops from Nanning and move north immediately. At any cost, open the road from Dushan to Duyun to meet the breakout of the 15th Army." Regarding the reinforcements along the way, the temple

There is not much hope in Shouyi, the journey is too long, but Yamashita Fengwen cannot die so quickly. The bait is gone, and there are more than 500,000 troops on both sides. Why go to Duyun in such a hurry?

The joint air-ground fire attack on the Japanese Fifteenth Army under Xiyun Peak has ended. Le Yiqin's aviation group Southern Flying Group has also returned. Before leaving, Le Yiqin did not forget to tell Zheng Yong, "Commander Zheng

Officer, the battlefield is too small and there are too few imps. We can't decide the winner this time. When there is a big battle, we will see whether your artillery is more effective or our aviation is more powerful." After saying this, Zheng Yong didn't wait.

He replied and simply turned off the intercom.

Zheng Yong was furious. This guy was still holding a grudge. He didn't even have a chance to talk back. When he thought about it, he thought of the thunderous rocket launcher that had made a big splash. He felt very good at that time. He couldn't wait to go out to see these big guys and bump into the teacher head-on.

Tang Qiuli, protected by Shan Hu and several special guards, walked into the headquarters with his body spotless.

Zheng Yong was taken aback, and hurriedly greeted him. After saluting, he asked: "Commander, why is it you? Didn't I say that you are still more than 20 kilometers away from the Duyun battlefield? The battle here is not completely over yet. The remaining Japanese troops

It hasn't been cleaned up yet, it's very dangerous, just bring these few people, Captain Huang, you too, the safety of the division commander is more important than anything else, this is the rule of our army division," Zheng Yong couldn't help complaining about Shan Hu.

Tang Qiuli interrupted Zheng Yong with a smile and said: "Don't blame Shanhu. You, Zheng Dapao and Le Yiqin, are both cannons and planes. They are fighting fiercely, so you don't allow me to come forward to take command? Ten Thunders

I’ve given you the rocket launcher regiment, but you still can’t take down tens of thousands of Japanese soldiers. Don’t worry, I saw it along the way. With how fierce you and Le Yiqin are, there are only a few Japanese soldiers left alive.”

Zheng Yong smiled sheepishly. Just as he was about to mention the rocket launcher, Chen Feng, the director of the communications department, came in and said, "Reporting to the division commander, there is a call from the headquarters of the Southeast Mobile Corps located in Yulin, Guangxi. About 100,000 Japanese troops are gathering in Nanning."

"Based on their movements and the intelligence obtained by the special operations team, Commander Ma Chaoyang judged that this group of Japanese troops was most likely the troops heading north to rescue Yamashita Fengwen, and asked for instructions on the next course of action."

Tang Qiuli frowned, "Hey, the ambition of Shouichi in the temple is not small. He wants to counter-encircle the directly affiliated corps in Duyun. Together with the Japanese army coming from Guiyang, there are more than 500,000 troops. They want to fight at the foot of the mountain."

It really stoked a hornet's nest. Anyway, Nanning will be recovered sooner or later, and Guinan cannot be controlled by the Japanese army.

He looked at Chen Feng and dictated the order, "The entire Ma Chaoyang Corps immediately marched to the north of Guigang to block the Japanese troops at the Mashan line and block their way north. In addition, Feng Jiwu Corps' Sixth Army in Guangdong

A brigade is temporarily assigned to the combat order of Ma Chaoyang's Southeast Mobile Corps to participate in this battle."

"Chang Feng's two brigades in Dushan, together with all the tanks and artillery units of the directly affiliated corps, immediately went south and rushed to the Mashan line to organize and implement the Mashan Campaign with Ma Chaoyang. Chang Feng served as the commander-in-chief and Ma Chaoyang served as deputy commander.

Commander-in-Chief, please remind Chang Feng and Ma Chaoyang that Mashan is not as favorable a terrain as the west of Duyun, and they only have a Hongshui River as a natural barrier."

Chen Feng went out to convey the order, and Tang Qiuli called in the Chief of Staff Yang Ketian and said: "Ketian, you immediately convey my order. The 2nd, 3rd, and 4th brigades of the directly affiliated corps will rush to Kaimen and Jiang.

Prefecture, Pinglang line, together with the original four brigades, blocked the Japanese troops from Guiyang direction who were trying to approach Duyun. It is estimated that at this time, Touichi Terauchi must have issued a death order to this Japanese army."

"Also, the first brigade is left behind to clear out the remaining Japanese troops of the 15th Army. You can follow the troops to the west of Duyun and report the situation there to me at any time," Yang Ketian agreed and reported another situation.

"Division Commander, I just received a telegram from Guo Huawen, commander of the 19th Army Group of the Duyun Defense Force, requesting his troops to also participate in the mission of clearing the remaining troops of the Japanese 15th Army. You see..."

Tang Qiuli smiled knowingly and said to Yang Ketian: "Commander Guo can't stand his loneliness anymore. He wants to take the opportunity to beat up the drowned dog and call him back. The battle is coming to an end. If the original deployment is disrupted, the remaining Japanese troops may have a chance."

Can

"Come on, your troops can just hold tight to Xiyun Peak. Our troops will drive the Japanese troops in this direction." After that, he said to Yang Ketian, "Just do it like this. Guo Huawen can understand what I mean. The 19th Group Army is fighting hard."

, it’s time to take a rest.”

After reading Tang Qiuli's call back, Guo Huawen smiled knowingly. Vice Chairman Tang was really considerate. Soon, he stopped laughing and became extremely angry.

He received an order from Liu Zhi, commander-in-chief of the East Route Army on the Central Army's Qiannan Defense Line, "Commander Guo Huawen of the 19th Group Army, the Japanese 15th Army has been besieging Duyun for many days. Now, the critical situation in the direction of Guiyang has been resolved.

According to the Nationalist Government’s military

According to the deployment of the committee, the 11th Group Army will march out of Majiang and arrive at Duyun to take over the defense of your department. They will deliver a fatal blow to the Japanese army that has been rampant for many days and annihilate the enemy and the walls of Duyun City. Guo Hua's Ministry of Education will mobilize to defend Majiang.

Order Liu Zhi, commander-in-chief of the Eastern Route Army."

Looking at Liu Zhi's order, Guo Huawen was so angry that he almost spat out a mouthful of blood. Liu Zhi did this obviously to grab the credit.
