Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 2522 The cannon fodder in the eyes of Meizu Meijiro

The words of Colonel Fukuzawa, the commander of the new First Corps of the Kwantung Army, were no joke. They were very intimidating. The Manchurian Japanese soldiers around him were so silent at that time that they jumped up and ran away. This guy not only killed

From Manchuria*

*Soldiers are not merciless, even when they treat their own compatriots, they are still ruthless. A squad leader, who is also a purebred Japanese, just because he was a few minutes slow in executing the order, the result was that the captain killed him with one shot.

It collapsed!

Well, after seeing the ferocious Manchurian Japanese soldiers, how could I dare to complain at all? I didn't even dare to hesitate. Slow down a little, and the horse whip comes up. It's good, it doesn't open your eyes, and it's waiting to be eaten.

Go for it, even if you have a belly

Eight generations of ancestors were scolding little devils, but the wind was blowing on their legs. They were running all the way. They might be tired from running, but if they didn’t run, they would definitely become dead. More than 90,000 people were driving in from multiple roads, and the wind was rolling up all over the sky.

The dust comes from the direction of Anton!

Menacing but not necessarily murderous, the newly formed First Corps and Second Corps of the Kwantung Army, with Manchurian soldiers as the main body, lack most of all the fighting will of the Imperial Japanese Army soldiers who are not afraid of death.

The commander, General Yoshijiro Umezu, knew this very well. Therefore, in his heart, he had no sympathy for these more than 90,000 cannon fodder. Otherwise, he would not have issued strict orders one after another without even giving him time to breathe.

!

This is true for the First Corps, and it is also true for the Second Corps behind it. A total of 256,000 cannon fodder can be used. General Umezu Yoshijiro's plan is to use the numerical advantage to pile death across the Yalu River.

The extremely threatening independent division, if the Kwantung Army's First Corps and Second Corps were to inflict heavy damage or even annihilate most of the independent divisions at the cost of annihilation, he would definitely be congratulated and excited!

Therefore, in his order to the two captains, in addition to marching desperately, he also specifically mentioned that when attacking Anton, the tactics used by the newly formed First Corps and Second Corps must be those of the Imperial Japanese Army.

tradition - hand-to-hand charge! Fight a human wave tactic!

General Umezu never felt sorry for the death of more than 200,000 Manchurian Japanese soldiers. In other words, although the Manchurian Japanese soldiers were nominally allies of the Kwantung Army, they were still Chinese people at heart. Let the Chinese people fight against each other.

Killing, to gain a breathing space for himself and the Kwantung Army, is what he is happy to see, and he is even more willing to use harsh methods to carry out it!

The newly formed First Corps of the Kwantung Army, which had all its hopes pinned on General Umezu Yoshijiro, had more than 90,000 people. It marched in from multiple routes. Under the threat of Japanese officers' whips and pistols, the troops marched extremely fast. Umezu Yoshijiro, who was stationed in Liaoyang,

The general continued to receive reports from the commander-in-chief, Colonel Fukuzawa, "So far, the troops have advanced smoothly, and there has been no obstruction by the independent division troops along the way. The headquarters can reach the attack location designated by the commander-in-chief's order on time!"

After Colonel Fukuzawa finally reported the situation to the Kwantung Army headquarters, less than twenty minutes later, the independent division aviation bomber group and fighter group appeared in the sky like dark clouds!

Bombers roared and dived, countless bombs poured down like raindrops from the sky, fighter jets shuttled back and forth, and the airborne machine guns screamed "clack!" incessantly, covering more than 90,000 people in the newly formed First Corps of the Kwantung Army.

In a hail of death bullets!

Fires were flashing, clouds of gunpowder smoke were rising, and shrapnel was flying across the sky. The Manchurian soldiers were completely exposed to the metal storm. They were unobstructed and endured blows from the air. The soldiers' broken limbs, broken arms, broken flesh, and blood were scattered everywhere.

, even though the Japanese officers cursed fiercely and shot the panicked soldiers mercilessly, they could not stop the troops from causing chaos!

Captain Fukuzawa hid under a rock, his face turned pale as he watched the bombs roaring down from the sky, and the independent division planes raining bullets in the sky. With trembling lips, he ordered the radio soldiers to immediately report to Commander Yoshijiro Umezu.

The commander sent a telegram to report the situation encountered by the First Corps, "Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, our Corps was suddenly attacked by bombers and fighter jets from the Independent Division on its way to Andong!"

"The density of enemy bombings is unprecedented. Now, the troops' advancement is blocked across the board and there are heavy casualties. The headquarters sincerely requests the Commander-in-Chief to allow our troops to avoid air attacks before advancing. Otherwise, the First Corps will inevitably suffer casualties due to excessive casualties.

It is too big and loses its combat effectiveness, let alone the ability to attack Anton!"

After receiving the urgent telegram from Colonel Fukuzawa, General Umezu Yoshijiro's face turned livid, and the corners of his mouth twitched violently, "It's the damn Independent Division aviation again! These damn China pilots always appear in the most critical places!" He muttered to himself.

His words and heart were almost filled with anger, hatred and helplessness.

The independent division aviation, this group of murderers who massacred the soldiers of the Imperial Japanese Empire, shrouded the mind of Umezu Yoshijiro like a nightmare. The hardships he suffered and the losses he suffered made him both resentful and helpless. Previously, he had lost all the Kwantung Army's 1st Air Force.

, the base camp Army Aviation Department has not yet had time to settle this account with itself.

Perhaps it was because the war situation in Manchuria was critical and they needed to turn the tide on their own. The senior management of the base camp understood this. Surprisingly, there was no telegram to deal with such a huge loss to the air force. Only in this way did General Umezu Yoshijiro feel even more unconvinced, even if he was scolding him.

Or it could be demotion or demotion, which are all expected. After all, he lost more than a thousand combat aircraft of the empire in his own hands!

But the base camp had no attitude. General Umezu Yoshijiro felt uneasy. He knew that this matter could not be revealed quietly. The calm on the surface heralded a bigger storm. Perhaps, after the war situation in Manchuria was stabilized, the storm would come.

time?

"This is what the Chinese people say, 'Are you going to kill the donkey?'" General Umezu Yoshijiro thought with bitterness in his heart more than once.

Now, the damn independent division aviation has come to destroy his last trump card. General Umezu Yoshijiro holds his head in his hands, gritting his teeth, his eyes gleaming fiercely, he hates and desires madly but has no intention of doing so.

There is no way, no ability to change the current situation. The sky in Manchuria is dominated by the independent division aviation.

Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Matsuda reminded: "Commander-in-Chief, the First Corps is facing huge losses. The headquarters should agree to Captain Fukuzawa's request and temporarily avoid air strikes. Otherwise, the plan to attack Anton will be seriously affected.

The impact!" His meaning was obvious. If the new First Corps suffered too many casualties, how could it still have the ability to attack Anton?

General Umezu Yoshijiro raised his head, his eyes gleaming, and said: "No! The First Corps cannot stop approaching Anton. Matsuda-kun, call Fukuzawa back and request rejection. Your troops must ignore casualties in order to complete the attack on Anton."

The sole purpose is to attack, and any external interference should not shake this decision, otherwise, military law will be engaged!"

"Also, order the Second Corps to speed up the march. If it encounters an air attack by the independent division aviation, it will also adopt the approach of the First Corps. Regardless of casualties, it must not stop advancing. If you shrink back and refuse to go forward, you will be executed on the spot!"

Chief of Staff Matsuda opened his mouth. He felt that Commander-in-Chief Umezu was a little crazy. Without strong anti-aircraft firepower and no air superiority, more than 200,000 soldiers in the two corps were exposed to broad daylight and endured the madness of the independent division aviation.

What is the difference between the bombing and strafing and the piles of live targets? Under such circumstances, even if we rush to the outskirts of Anton, can we still fight?

Seeing that Chief of Staff Matsuda did not immediately issue the order, but hesitated and hesitated to speak, General Umezu looked at him with a fierce look in his eyes and said in a conspiratorial tone: "Chief of Staff Matsuda, are you doubting my order?"

?”

Lieutenant General Matsuda was horrified by the Commander-in-Chief's eyes and hurriedly lowered his head, "Commander-in-Chief, the staff don't dare, go immediately to convey your order to the First Corps and the Second Corps!" After that,

He hurried away with sweat on his forehead.

As soon as Chief of Staff Matsuda left, General Umezu Yoshijiro was so weak that he leaned heavily on his chair and muttered to himself: "Matsuda-kun, you still don't understand my intentions. More than 200,000 Manchurian soldiers died in exchange for

More than 50,000 Imperial Army soldiers were safely withdrawn to Fengtian, it was worth it! - Very worth it!"

According to the orders of Liu Cuigang and Le Yiqin, the independent division aviation unit divided eighteen bomber regiments and twelve fighter regiments into three echelons, and attacked the newly formed First Corps of the Kwantung Army less than fifty kilometers away from Anton.

The newly formed Second Corps of the Kwantung Army hurriedly arrived and carried out all-round bombings. The bombs hit the ground and exploded into clusters of native flowers. Along the road leading to Andong, Manchurian soldiers were scattered with blood and flesh.

!

The aviation pilots who bombed were all surprised later, "What's going on? Under such intensive bombing, why don't the little devils on the ground take air defense measures? At least, they should find a safer place to hide for a while.

Hide? But these little devils are good. They are like wooden men. They braved the bombing and drove in. How evil are they? Are these little devils not afraid of death? "

The situation discovered by the pilots was immediately reported to Liu Cuigang, who was stationed at Incheon Airport on the Korean Peninsula and commanded the large-scale bombing. Liu Cuigang dismissed it with a cold smile on his lips and said to Chief of Staff Dong Ningxuan: "Aren't you afraid of death? Humph! Give it to the bombers.

The commander of the formation and fighter formation called back. There are ready-made live targets for you to bomb. Why, you can't do it? No, I'll move to the second echelon!"

The roads leading to Andong were filled with Manchurian soldiers, their broken corpses, the lush green ground, the craters scattered all over, and the mottled bloodstains all showed that the Kwantung Army's newly formed First Corps and the Third

What kind of blow did the Second Corps, more than 250,000 Manchurian Japanese soldiers, suffer!

The soldiers of the new First Corps of the Kwantung Army, who braved the bullets and bombs falling from the sky and marched forcefully, lost more than 20,000 people, and were numb to death, finally arrived at the line between Wulongbei, Side Gate and Baoshan. Here, the distance

Anton is less than thirty kilometers away.
