Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 1,140 Fierce Battle with Wu Bin (Part 2)

In the morning in the Baldwin Mining Area, it was originally a place with fresh air and green trees, a typical subtropical scenery. Before the sun had risen, the tall trees were plump, with drops hanging on their broad leaves.

There are crystal clear dew drops, and a thin layer of mist floats in the forest, which is like a dream. Only the crisp chirping of the early birds adds a lot of vitality to the quiet mining area.

But at five o'clock in the morning on July 5th, this tranquility was broken. A huge roar suddenly rose, and in the sky, there was a piercing scream, from far to near, and birds jumping on the branches.

My son, frightened by the scream, spread his wings and flew high in haste. Countless little black dots, trailing tail flames, flew rapidly from the sky.

Then, he plunged into the ground covered with green grass and trees, and exploded into a ball of fire wrapped in black smoke. The quiet morning in the Baldwin mining area was rudely awakened. The Japanese army started the attack on time. Ito used all his weapons.

artillery

, the density reached seventy-three per kilometer. In front of the Japanese artillery position shrouded in a burst of light blue smoke, there were Japanese tanks roaring deeply and emitting black smoke, and Japanese infantry formations with cold bayonets.

.

The fire was shining, the smoke was filling, shrapnel was flying, the ground was shaking, tall trees were broken in half, and the remaining half of the tree stumps were uprooted by the shells. Almost all the buildings on the ground were under this fierce artillery fire.

Bricks and stones were flying everywhere, dirt was flying, and the Japanese artillery fire was so fierce and intensive.

On the ground, there were one explosion point after another. Soon, they could no longer be distinguished. All they saw were rows and layers of earth waves, constantly rising and falling, just like the waves of the sea.

, Ito Yanzaburo put down the telescope and nodded with satisfaction, "Kaname! Let me help the troops that Tang Qiuli brought out to die," Ito turned to Chief of Staff Koizumi and said proudly.

On a mountain peak about ten kilometers north of Wubin, Tang Qiusheng was holding a cup of water while listening to the Army Chief of Staff Chang Feng read a telegram from Yu Guanghan who was monitoring the Japanese army. After reading the telegram, Chang Feng's face changed.

It is somewhat unnatural. If we still follow our own battle plan, the Japanese army's devastating bombardment alone will cause the casualties of the two brigades to reach more than one-third.

Tang Qiusheng glanced at him, smiled slightly, and said nothing. Chang Feng asked: "Deputy division commander, the Japanese army attacked the Baodwen mining area. Such artillery fire will also be used in Wubin, and our troops are on defensive positions."

The troops will be much denser, and I'm afraid the casualties will not be small."

Tang Qiusheng smiled and said: "Our troops spent one night to establish two blocking lines in Wubin. The ground fortifications had no time to reinforce, and a lot of anti-gun holes should have been dug. Besides, our artillery is no better than

The Japanese army is weak, and in a fight, the Japanese artillery will pose much less of a threat to our infantry."

"Since Ito wants to use artillery to clear the way, let's have a large-scale artillery battle in Wubin. Also, our ambush troops on the way can cause a certain amount of damage to the Japanese army and will also slow down the Japanese army. Chang Feng, immediately

To reach Aviation Commander Le Yiqin’s radio station, it’s time for planes to appear.”

Chang Feng suddenly realized. After a while, he communicated with Le Yiqin. Tang Qiusheng dictated the message: "Commander Le, the Southern Flying Group of the Aviation Force, dispatch all bombers to focus on bombing the Japanese artillery positions and tank units. I will be at the forefront."

Position, set up an air liaison radio station to indicate the target for you. Currently, no Japanese aircraft have been found over the battlefield. The specific bombing plan will be reported as soon as possible after it is drawn up."

The Japanese army's crazy bombardment lasted for an hour, plowing every inch of land in the Baldwin mining area with steel. Ito's mood improved greatly. Under such a fierce bombardment, how many Japanese soldiers could survive?

It was a miracle. After the bombardment stopped, Ito suddenly pulled out the chrysanthemum saber with the golden steel handle from his waist and the Japanese royal family emblem. He pointed the tip of the sword forward and shouted: "Give me the murderous intention!"

This appearance stunned Chief of Staff Koizumi. What happened? The dignified commander-in-chief actually did the work of captain of the Colonel-General, commanding the troops to charge. This was unprecedented, but Ito didn't think there was anything unusual about it.

, he needed a way to vent the depression caused by being harassed by a small group of troops from the ** Division last night.

The Japanese tanks rumbled and roared, with a puff of black smoke coming out from behind their buttocks. They rushed out with their heads and tails swaying, and the turrets kept spitting out streams of fire. Behind them, there were rows of Japanese infantrymen who were shouting crazily and holding bright bayonets.

With murderous intent soaring into the sky, and with bloody ferocity, they rushed towards the Chinese soldiers' position where they had suffered so much yesterday.

Ito sat relaxed on the canvas camp chair and glanced around a few times as if unintentionally. He saw Miss Okoko's slender waist and her hips that were even thicker because of her crotch. The person in her fifties suddenly became distracted.

Things on the battlefield are no longer needed

Don't worry about yourself. With this burst of artillery fire, when the soldiers went up, they probably could only see the broken limbs of the Chinese soldiers. Those soldiers who like to torture prisoners of war should be very disappointed, right? Their commander-in-chief did not leave any alive to the soldiers.

Chinese prisoners of war.

Chief of Staff Koizumi hurriedly walked into the tent. Ito frowned slightly. Koizumi still looked immature and seemed a little panicked about everything. A general of the Empire of Japan should be as stable as a rock. He was so panicked.

He was in a panic, which was unbecoming of a general.

Koizumi arrived in front of Ito, and before he could speak, Ito asked: "What? The artillery bombardment is not effective, and there are still stubborn Chinese soldiers?" Koizumi was stunned for a moment, and replied: "That's not true, Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, attack

The troops reported that they have occupied all the positions of the ** Division’s defenders, and our army has not encountered any form of resistance.”

Ito looked at Koizumi in confusion, with a dissatisfied look on his face. Koizumi hurriedly continued: "It's just that the position occupied by our army was empty, and not a single body of a Chinese soldier was seen. They thought

, the troops of the ** Division should have evacuated last night, and our soldiers who rushed to the position were killed and injured many by landmines laid in advance by the enemy."

"Honey?" Ito stood up suddenly. In other words, after careful preparation last night, today more than a thousand artillery pieces and nearly 100,000 shells were fired at the empty position of the ** division. Ito felt his heart pounding.

It was boring, like a punch punched with all the strength, but it landed in the air. The feeling of losing strength and being dodged almost caused a mouthful of blood to spurt out.

Ito believed Koizumi's report. No officer would dare to lie about such a thing. He groaned as if he had toothache, bit his cheek, and said in a hoarse voice: "Order the attacking troops not to stop, and to pass through the Baldwin mining area immediately.

Attack in the direction of Degang. The rotating troops will follow as the second echelon. The headquarters will set off immediately, a bunch of stupid pigs!"

I don't know who Ito was scolding at this, but he wouldn't scold himself anyway. The Japanese troops surged past like a turbid current and were still smoking. The Baldwin Mining Area, which was full of craters, hurriedly headed north. Behind it was

The second echelon was obviously unprepared and looked a bit messy. The two teams were about five kilometers apart.

Less than ten kilometers out of the Baldwin mining area, Ito, who was marching with the rear team, heard the fierce sound of gunfire. He couldn't understand what these Chinese commanders were thinking, leaving Baldwin with favorable terrain.

Not using the mining area, but blocking your own troops in a place in front that is not conducive to defense, is stupid and stupid.

Koizumi ran over from a car in front, "Report to the Commander-in-Chief, the troops in front reported that they were ambushed by the ** Division troops. The 18th Division and the 21st Division suffered heavy losses. The ambush troops

There are at least more than 50,000 troops in the ** Division. Please ask the commander of the troops for instructions on whether to deploy on the spot to surround and eliminate this group of Chinese troops?"

Ito suddenly had a headache. Could it be that small group of Japanese troops who were clinging to each other and annoying like flies? He suddenly became angry and shouted to Koizumi: "Stupid, order the troops in front to send out some troops to entangle them."

The main force of China's small force continued its march north to Degang without making any stops."

It is a pity that Ito miscalculated again. The remaining two Japanese divisions had just set up their posture and prepared for a big fight. However, the Chinese troops who had been pouring bullets just now suddenly disappeared. The situation was reported to Ito, and he also

I can't figure it out, what's going on?

Encountering this ambush, Ito lost his guard against Uhama in front. He believed that there would be no more ** division troops blocking the front. A large-scale blocking should be on the periphery of Tokugang, no more than

An area of ​​20 kilometers was both ambushed and blocked, which was not in line with the norm.

The Japanese troops who continued to march north to Degang left behind thousands of corpses and thousands of wounded soldiers. They stared at Degang with wide eyes. When they arrived at Wubin, it was already past nine o'clock in the morning.

The Third Division, receiving orders from Commander-in-Chief Ito, quickly passed through Uhama.

After listening to Chang Feng's report, Tang Qiusheng picked up the phone and said, "The 5th, 6th, and 7th brigades of the Directly Affiliated Corps, the 3rd, 4th, and 5th brigades of the Sulu Mobile Corps, and the 2nd and 3rd Tank Brigades will respond immediately.

When the Japanese army conducts a counterattack, they must take advantage of the unprepared opportunity to hit the Japanese army hard. Each unit must remember that the time from the start to the end of the battle shall not exceed one hour. After receiving the order from the headquarters, they must immediately withdraw to Wubin.

Defense lines, all artillery units, prepare for artillery fire."

The 13th Division, the vanguard of the Japanese army, never imagined that in broad daylight, the Japanese Army would launch an assault on the hundreds of thousands of Imperial Army troops that were marching hastily, and use them as hundreds of tanks.

, roaring, appeared in front of the Japanese soldiers, and when they collided head-on, the Japanese troops in the lead were immediately confused to an unprecedented degree.
