Age of Conquest Reborn

When the six regiments of the Han Railway Troops on the Wulongbei, Bianmen, and Baoshan lines in the north of Andong launched a full-line counterattack against the newly formed First Corps of the Kwantung Army, they retreated from the direction of Zhuanghe in the Tangchi and Longwang Temple lines south of Andong.

The 107th Division of the Japanese Army that came down was also blocked by the First Brigade of the Southeast Mobile Corps. The independent division troops who were waiting in full formation, as soon as they took action, beat the Japanese army that had lost all fighting spirit and stopped it from moving forward.

Han Tie did not devote too much energy to the battlefield of chasing the newly formed First Corps of the Kwantung Army. The one-sided battle was nothing worthy of attention. What Han Tie was really concerned about was the Japanese army that retreated from the central part of the Liaodong Peninsula. In Han Tie's view

, that is the real devil. Although it is a lost dog, such a dog will bite people more fiercely. In addition, it is eager to escape, so why not fight with its life?

The battle began, but the situation reflected in the phone call from the frontline commander made Han Tie unable to guess. The Japanese attack was not violent, nor did they launch ferocious attacks again and again, eager to open the enemy blocked in front.

The independent division troops are in position, and there are not many troops. Compared with previous expectations, the battle is very easy!

Han Tie was puzzled. Anton was the only way for the Japanese 107th Division to escape to Fengtian. Although the 107th Division was attacked repeatedly and suffered heavy casualties, judging from all aspects of the situation, there was no way left.

With about 10,000 troops spread across various blocking areas, there must be one or two thousand little Japs anyway, right?

"The fight was very easy? Are the little devils not in a hurry to escape, or do they have other plans?" Han Tie said to himself doubtfully, "Chief of Staff, ordered the blocking troops from all places south of Anton to not take it lightly and to strictly guard their positions.

Without receiving orders, we will never allow unauthorized counterattacks. No matter what tricks the little devils play, we will always say 'defend!' The little devils are not in a hurry, and I can afford it!" He told Chief of Staff Wang

Dongshan said.

Judging from this stable deployment, Han Tie is well versed in the use of troops. If he were to face the newly formed First Corps of the Kwantung Army north of Andong, he would not hesitate to order the troops to counterattack.

The remnants of the 107th Division that came down were very cautious. They faced different situations of Japanese troops and adopted different combat methods. Generally speaking, Han Tie's strategy for defending Anton was to attack from the north and defend from the south.

When a small number of troops of the 107th Division carried out a small-scale attack on the blocking positions of the independent divisions on the front line of Tangchi and Longwang Temple, the remaining 107th Division, about 7,000 people, followed the instructions of the Kwantung Army Commander-in-Chief Umezu

Following General Meijiro's order, he turned around and headed west, heading towards Gaizhou, Han Tie in Andong City. Not knowing the situation, he had no way of knowing that General Umezu Meijiro had made a mistake.

To the north of Andong, six regiments of the Korean Railway Forces attacked across the Wulongbei, Lianmen, and Baoshan front lines. More than 180 tanks opened the way. Behind them were more than 30,000 murderous independent division soldiers, chasing and holding them.

The newly formed First Corps of the Kwantung Army, running in the direction of Fengtian with all its might

Sixty to seventy thousand people fought hard. On the way to pursue, the corpses of Manchurian soldiers could be seen everywhere. The wounded soldiers were abandoned on both sides of the road. They stared with empty and frightened eyes as the tanks of the Independent Division rumbled past.

Looking at the soldiers of the Independent Division, a hurricane blew past them.

There were more Manchurian soldiers who couldn't run anymore. Their hearts were beating so fast that they were in their throats. Their eyes were turning black. They simply threw their rifles to the side, sat down on the ground, and took a big gulp.

Breathing heavily and assuming a posture of waiting to be captured, these Manchurian soldiers also thought about it. If they kept running like this, they would be killed by the bullets of the independent division soldiers, or they would vomit blood and die from exhaustion!

Simply, forget it and become prisoners, maybe there is still a way to survive. We can't compare with those Japanese. If the Japanese don't run away, they will die. We can be considered Chinese after all. At first, only a dozen or twenty people did this.

Soon, more Manchurian soldiers chose to be prisoners.

Wherever the troops of the Independent Division went, they saw Manchurian soldiers slumped into a ball everywhere. Their rifles were thrown far away, and they were all panting out of breath. Later, it even affected the pursuit speed of the troops.

.

Therefore, the commanders of each regiment immediately reported the situation to the headquarters. Han Tie was thinking about the strange behavior of the 107th Infantry Division that had retreated from the Zhuanghe line. Chief of Staff Wang Dongshan put down the phone and said,

He reported the situation encountered by the counterattack troops.

Han Tie clicked his teeth and said, "Oh! Weird things happen every year, and there are so many today. The real Japs in the south are fighting lukewarm, and the two Japs in the north are waiting to be taken prisoner. Damn it! The troops are now counterattacking.

How far is it?" He asked Chief of Staff Wang Dongshandao.

Wang Dongshan replied: "Now we have chased nearly 20 kilometers and reached the Dongtang, Yangshuichuan, and Maodianzi lines. According to the reports of the leaders of each regiment, it is estimated that there are at least 40,000 prisoners waiting for us to deal with!"

Han Tie curled his lips and said dissatisfied: "Oh! Don't say more than 40,000, even more than 80,000. We don't care about it. If it is a real Japanese, more than 100,000 is not too much. However, these more than 40,000 Manchu*

*Prisoners are also a big problem. Okay, order the troops to stop as soon as you see fit. Stop the counterattack immediately, retreat to the original position, and continue to pursue. It’s time to meet the newly formed Second Corps of the Kwantung Army. There are hundreds of thousands of people.

, let’s not suffer that loss!”

"Also, order the artillery unit. If the newly formed Second Corps of the Kwantung Army launches an attack, follow the prescription to grab the medicine and hit him with shells. Coupled with the bombers and fighter jets in the sky, maybe we can launch a counterattack right away.

Yes! Hahaha!”

Without the roar of the tank engine, without the shouts of the pursuers, and without the shells and bullets fired from behind, the Kwantung Army's newly formed First Corps finally escaped the fate of annihilation and defeated thirty soldiers in one breath.

A few kilometers until I can run fast

They fell apart, their throats felt salty, and their legs were as soft as cotton. Only with less than 15,000 troops left did they stop. Whether they were Japanese or Manchurian soldiers and policemen, they all followed.

Like a dead dog, he lay on the ground breathing heavily.

Among the remaining more than 10,000 people, there are more than 6,000 Japanese officers at all levels. The rest are hard-core traitors who are dedicated to serving the Japanese. In addition, there are the Puppet Manchukuo police who usually do many evil things. In addition to following the Japanese,

There was no other way out. They also knew that based on the evil things they usually did to the people in Northeast China, they would not be good if they fell into the hands of the soldiers of the Independent Division, so they simply ran down with the Japanese.

Captain Fukuzawa, who was defeated by the commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army, General Umezu Yoshijiro, and Major General Xu Yi, was lucky enough to survive. Part of it was because he was trapped by the defeated troops, and part of it was because he cherished his own life.

I don't want to die here either.

After panting for a long time, his heart jumped in his throat and finally fell back into his stomach. Colonel Fukuzawa struggled to support his body and sat on the wet mud floor. He looked around at the lying areas and didn't want to move his fingers.

The subordinates were speechless for a while. The First Corps was completely finished. There were more than 90,000 people before departure. Now, looking at this, there are less than 20,000 people left. The most important thing is that they failed to break through the blocking position of the independent division.

Failed to attack Anton!

"Both of the two tasks were not completed, but the troops were dispersed. How should I explain to Commander-in-Chief Umezu? Can the Commander-in-Chief spare me?" Captain Fukuzawa felt confused and frightened, and was beaten without any fighting spirit.

, can the First Corps, with less than 20,000 people, still muster up the courage to fight back? He himself has no such idea.

At this time, the Major Chief of Staff of the Corps, limping with the support of the hurried guards, came over with a telegram and said: "Report to the Corps Captain, I received a telegram from the Commander-in-Chief, asking our department if there has been a breakthrough.

Seize the independent division's position to block the troops and launch an attack on Anton on time?"

This is a telegram like a reminder. Now that the First Corps has almost been wiped out, what kind of attack will it launch? If the independent division troops continue to pursue it, I am afraid that not even one of the 20,000 people will be left. Previously, General Umezu Yoshijiro's

Captain Fuze clearly remembered the telegram. If he could not complete the task of occupying Anton, all the officers of the First Corps from top to bottom would commit suicide by disembowelment as apology!

Captain Fukuzawa did not receive the telegram, and said to the Major Chief of Staff: "Chief of Staff, please write a telegram yourself and immediately report the current situation of the First Corps to the Commander-in-Chief. Waiting for the Commander-in-Chief's order, I will contact you.

A quiet place for some quiet time!"

After saying that, he staggered into the woods beside the road without taking any guards with him. The Major Chief of Staff cursed in his heart, "How damn cunning. You are the captain, but you let me, the chief of staff, take over the First Corps."

If I report my current virtue to Commander-in-Chief Umezu, won’t I be allowed to bear the Commander-in-Chief’s wrath? You are also the first commander-in-chief to commit suicide by caesarean section!”

This telegram was not easy to write. The Major Chief of Staff was in a dilemma. If it was to report the news of the occupation of Anton, he would have a lot to say, but... this is such a dilemma! More than 20 minutes passed, and the telegram showed

, or still blank.

At this time, a captain officer, with a pale face, ran over in a panic, "Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, something serious has happened! Captain Fukuzawa committed suicide by caesarean section! It's in the woods ahead!"

"Hani?" Major Chief of Staff trembled in shock, jumped up suddenly, and the telegraph newspaper fell to the ground. Under the leadership of the captain officer, he stumbled into the woods. Sure enough, Colonel Fukuzawa leaned against a stone with a painful expression.

Under the big tree, a command knife was inserted deeply into the stomach. There was a large pool of solidified blood on the ground, exuding the pungent smell of blood. The person had long since run out of breath!

The Major Chief of Staff grinned, his scalp numbing, "Colonel Fukuzawa was very cruel to me. Not only did he insert the command knife into his stomach, but in order to die quickly, he even pulled him sideways several times, and his intestines were broken!"

Looking at the dead-faced Colonel Fukuzawa, the Major Chief of Staff's calves began to tremble. According to the rules of the Imperial Japanese Army, Captain Fukuzawa committed suicide by caesarean section. Next, it was his turn as the Chief of Staff!
