Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 1128: Degang Raid Battle

Everything was calm, the annoying rain was still falling slowly, and only the fish belly white gradually appeared on the other side, indicating the arrival of another dawn. Lieutenant General Nagumo Taro woke up from the haze.

He didn't sleep well that night, not because he was worried about anything, but because Commander Ito's order was still making noise in his heart.

If there had not been an order to stop the advance immediately, then he should be sleeping in Inywa Town at this moment. Last night, he declined the kindness of his subordinates to get two local flower girls, and generously gave the two crying flower girls to

He killed his guard captain and guard soldiers. Looking at the ecstatic expressions of his subordinates, Nanyun shook his head.

It's not that Lieutenant General Nagumo has a high moral standard, but that he has a very high vision. In his opinion, the local flower girls are very low-class, with dark skin, short stature, not to mention they don't understand the style at all.

, compared with the local geisha, they are not on the same level at all, especially Miss Hanako, whom I met in Ginza, Tokyo, before I went to Cochin China. She was called a **.

After thinking about Miss Hanako's plump and white breasts, Nayun then considered the current matter. Perhaps, today he should receive an order from Commander Ito and the troops should continue to advance towards Myitkyina. Suddenly, he had no trace of anything.

Feeling sleepy, I simply got up and stood in front of a large military map to deduce the route I would take.

On a hillside ** kilometers north of Degang, four rocket launcher battalions directly under the corps have entered the artillery position. The artillery commander Zheng Yong picked up the phone and said, "Is this the division commander? I'm Zheng Yong, rocket launcher battalion. I've already done this.

Good artillery preparation, just wait

"The division commander's order," Tang Qiuli nodded slightly. Zheng Yong gave himself a surprise. He originally thought that it would be great to have one battalion rush to the battlefield. Now, Zheng Yong unknowingly pulled four battalions.

Come up, this battle will be much easier.

He said to Zheng Yong: "Zheng Yong, at four o'clock sharp, the shelling will start on time. Can you guarantee that the first round of shelling can cover the Japanese camp?" Zheng Yong hesitated and replied: "Division Commander, if you don't consider civilians

Targets, our four rocket launcher battalions can completely cover all targets at once," Tang Qiuli said without any emotion: "With all-round coverage, the first round of shelling will kill more than a quarter of the Japanese army's effective forces."

Zheng Yong has this ability. Four thunder rocket launcher battalions are sixty thirty-two rocket launchers. One salvo fire is nearly two thousand large-caliber rockets. Five minutes later, a second salvo of thirty can be carried out.

The artillery fire was rapid in a minute, and after six rounds, there were more than 10,000 rockets, which was more powerful than 50,000 to 60,000 howitzer shells.

If it were not for the private houses in Degang, Zheng Yong would not have asked such a redundant question. For a place as big as a pigsty, a rocket launcher battalion can wipe it off the map. "Each battalion, please pay attention to the shelling range. Degang

Cover all directions, firepower will attack in thirty minutes. After my order, the bombardment will begin." After Zheng Yong gave the order, he secretly smacked his tongue, "Damn it, this time, I will have to be a butcher for a while!"

At 3:50, Tang Qiuli said to Chief of Staff Yang Ketian: "Ketian, confirm the positions of each brigade again." Yang Ketian picked up the phone, shook it violently, covered the phone with his hand, and said: "Commander, join the attack.

Each of the brigades has arrived at the designated position. The commander of the tank unit asked for instructions whether to put the subsequent tanks into the battlefield?"

Tang Qiuli thought about it and said, "Tell them that after the battle begins, all the arriving tanks will be thrown into the assault. We must deal with this Japanese force as quickly as possible."

At four o'clock in the morning on June 30, Tang Qiuli looked at his watch and said to Yang Ketian: "Start!" Several staff officers holding telephones shouted into the microphone at the same time: "The attack begins!"

At the rocket artillery position, following an order from Commander Zheng Yong, a flame suddenly burst into flames in the pre-dawn night. Two thousand rockets were fired, trailing a long tail flame, with a color that was obviously different from ordinary ones.

The screams of shelling cut through the raindrops and reached the target area instantly. In Tang Qiuli's telescope, a sea of ​​​​fire immediately appeared in Degang.

Five minutes later, another hail of bullets flew past. The destructive power of weapons like rocket launchers on targets was undoubtedly astonishing. Degang's house collapsed like a toy amid an earth-shaking loud noise, and flames burst out.

It actually turned the raindrops into wisps of white mist.

Lieutenant General Nagumo Taro was in the headquarters, and his mind was filled with the question of how the troops would advance after dawn. Suddenly, a different scream came from the sky. Nagumo raised his head suspiciously and looked at

If the rain outside the window was a bombardment, based on his experience, he would react immediately, but this sound was too unfamiliar.

There was a loud noise, and several rockets fell from the house where Nayun was resting. The moment the flames bloomed, Nayun's mind was filled with questions. Then, this ambitious and arrogant Japanese Army Lieutenant General commanded seven

The commander with tens of thousands of troops turned into ashes that no one could find in the heat of thousands of degrees.

Wave after wave of rockets continued to fly to the target area. Thirty minutes later, Degang fell into a sea of ​​​​fire. Tang Qiuli was about to give the order for the infantry to start the assault. Looking at the sea of ​​​​fire, he smiled bitterly.

, "It's really a cocoon. I forgot that the rocket shelling area does not apply to the area where our infantry is about to pass. In this sea of ​​​​fire, I am afraid that no Japanese soldiers will be seen. Most of my troops will be burned first."

He had no choice but to order: "Notify all brigades to attack again after twenty minutes." In fact, without him giving the order, several brigade commanders looked at the flaming Degang in the telescope and kept talking.

Brigade commander Chu Ziye put down the telescope and said to the chief of staff: "The division commander is very happy, but it also prevents us from launching an attack immediately. To be honest, the rocket launcher is too powerful!"

Twenty minutes later, as the flames burning in Degang gradually dimmed, more than 100,000 people from the directly affiliated corps rushed towards Degang Town from four directions. The battle progressed very smoothly, and the troops encountered almost no resistance.

, and occupied Degang, which was in ruins. Almost all Japanese soldiers were killed under thirty minutes of rapid artillery fire.

Liu Hongzhang, commander of the 1st Brigade, looked at the battlefield with rubble and smoke rising from the ruins. He grinned and said to Chief of Staff Ren Zhaoquan: "Zhaoquan, report to the division commander that the 1st Brigade successfully occupied the northern part of Degang.

When the Japanese resisted, all the little devils died!"

Then, Liu Hongzhang seemed to be unsatisfied and continued to say, "Is this the end? We ran dozens of kilometers of mountain roads overnight in heavy rain, without firing a single shot, and without seeing a single kid. This battle is over. I dare you to fight in the future."

Ah, let Zheng Yong's rocket artillery fight, we infantry will have nothing to do!"

Chief of Staff Ren Zhaoquan smiled and heard the sour taste in the brigade commander's words. For Liu Hongzhang, who was brave and good at fighting, he went to the battlefield but did not get the chance to kill the little Japanese. This made him feel uncomfortable.

, I was holding it in my heart, and the flames were jumping up and down, and I wanted to find a fight with that person.

Liu Hongzhang held a submachine gun and looked around, trying to find a few living Japanese soldiers, even wounded ones. The guy in his hand could also open meat, which made him very disappointed. In addition to the rubble everywhere,

, nothing.

Soon, Ren Zhaoquan came back and said to Liu Hongzhang: "The division commander ordered all brigades to search in opposite directions with Degang as the center. The number of Japanese tank units destroyed was inconsistent with the actual number. The division commander also emphasized that it was very dangerous."

It is possible that some Japanese troops escaped this bombardment. All troops are reminded to be careful when searching.

Liu Hongzhang waved his hand and said: "It's just a fish that slipped through the net. It's still necessary to mobilize the troops. Zhaoquan, order the first and second regiments to carry out search missions. The other troops are on standby!"

Northwest of Degang, only five or six kilometers away, there is a natural canyon, covered with dense woods and bushes, covering the space above the canyon. If you don't look carefully, no one will notice that the Japanese Central Route Army Staff Officer

Major General Chang Zhongze Jinxiong was hiding in a big cave.

Nakaze was completely lucky. Although Nanyun's residence in Degang Town was the largest house in the town, it could not accommodate the entire command organization. So Nakaze found a new way and found a large cave in this canyon, and

, there were many caves around, so Nakazawa ordered the entire 11th Division, most of the 15th Division, and the 3rd Tank Brigade that were sleeping in the wild to camp in the canyon.

This unintentional move by Nakazawa Takeo saved the lives of more than 30,000 Japanese soldiers and more than 200 tanks of the 3rd Tank Brigade. When the rocket artillery battalion directly under the corps launched a sudden fire attack on Degang Town,

At that time, Zhongze was in the cave, wrapped in a military blanket, sleeping soundly.

The earth-shattering explosion suddenly woke Zhongze up. He felt that the entire cave was shaking, and the sand on the top continued to "swirly" fall. He rushed to the entrance of the cave and was stunned by the scene in front of him. De

Gang Town was already a sea of ​​fire, and shells continued to fall with strange sounds.

Nakazawa immediately understood that the troops stationed in Degang were attacked, and it must have been done by the Chinese army. He immediately called Nanyun's residence, and there was a blind tone. He knew that Commander Nanyun was already in this overwhelming situation.

Amidst the artillery fire, His Majesty the Emperor was shattered. At this moment, the commanders of the 11th and 15th divisions and the commander of the third chariot brigade, etc., who saw the flames soaring into the sky in Degang Town, and more than a dozen

A Japanese commander came in with a panicked look on his face.

Needless to say, these senior officers of the Japanese army all knew what happened. The troop station was devastated by the Chinese army. Immediately, Nakazawa Jinxiong took over the command of the troop and immediately ordered Degang to be attacked. Commander Nagumo

The news of the broken official was reported to Commander-in-Chief Ito, and then Nakazawa held a short emergency meeting to discuss countermeasures.

Before the meeting was over, a major came in and said, "Report to your Excellency, Chief of Staff, that the Chinese army was found at the entrance of the canyon, with a strength of about one regiment. They are gradually approaching, but they did not find us. What should we do?"
