Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 658: Hitting a wall

The Japanese army's giant artillery blasted the third line of defense in Huangyadong, causing trees to fly away, rocks to collapse, and being riddled with holes. What the senior Japanese army officers saw through their telescopes was that this piece of land was constantly being destroyed by violent force.

Twisted, beaten, and with a loud noise, a rock was blown up and a tree was brought up. No one could survive under such bombardment. (Baidu search,)

The soldiers in the firepower point were suffering great pain. The ammunition boxes piled up like a hill shook and collapsed, almost burying several soldiers underneath. Although the division commander had a way to resist the shock wave, the huge sound wave

Still mercilessly getting into the ears of the soldiers, the soldiers lying on the thick cotton quilt were like a boat bumping in a storm, which could capsize at any time, their hearts were beating violently, and they were extremely depressed.

However, that's all. After the soldiers got over the initial discomfort, they gradually settled down. All the firepower points and bunkers on the third line of defense were modeled after natural caves and were artificially transformed to form an underground transportation network extending in all directions.

The network can quickly mobilize troops to support various firepower points.

The mountainsides of several mountains were almost hollowed out, and an airtight crossfire formed on both sides. The depth was several kilometers, and the tops were nearly a hundred meters thick of rock and soil. Such fortifications and bunkers could maximize the

To play its role, Tang Qiuli considered at the beginning of the design that if Huangya Cave was besieged by heavy Japanese troops or was besieged for a long time, all designs were carried out in accordance with this principle.

The combat team leaders at each firepower point stayed at the observation holes and closely monitored the movements of the Japanese troops. These were veterans who had experienced hundreds of battles. Most of them served as squad platoon leaders and constituted the main body of the combat effectiveness of each unit of the ** division.

personal

They all have a record of killing enemies. In the trenches in the field, they would not even blink when facing the charging Japs. What's more, they were beating the Japs in the hidden area where the shells could not collapse and the Japs could not climb out.

It's as easy as smoking a cigarette.

The leader of the combat team guarding the first entrance is Hao Jinjia. He is a veteran who has been in the army for more than two years. He is only in his twenties this year. He serves as the platoon leader in the second battalion of the third regiment of Ma Chaoyang Brigade. He attended high school for several years before joining the army.

He is considered an intellectual among the ** division troops and is extremely smart in fighting. His platoon is well-known throughout the brigade, and the regiment already intends to promote him to the position of company commander. Otherwise, he will not be guarding the throat of Huangyadong.

An important import task was entrusted to him.

The Japanese shelling stopped. Hao Jinjia looked up at the situation outside, dusted himself off, and called to the soldiers, "Get up, it's time to work." The Japanese troops rushing into the valley should be the size of a brigade, wearing khaki military uniforms.

, a stream of sewage flowed across the bottom of the valley, and he was happy. In such a narrow terrain, so many people rushed in at once, weren't they just waiting to be beaten? They said that the little devil was cunning, so why did he follow the donkey so stupidly now?

Similar.

This is not to blame Okamura Neiji for not being able to command the battle. With the experience of the previous two times, the soldiers rushed to clean the battlefield and occupy the position. This time was no exception. He thought more carefully and looked at the terrain around Huangya Cave.

Look, this should be the last line of defense. Neji Okamura does not expect that the giant cannon can kill all the more than 50,000 Chinese soldiers inside. If he sends a small group of troops in, the Chinese soldiers who are trapped and fighting will be surrounded by counter-attacks.

causing unnecessary losses.

Therefore, Okamura Neiji deployed a brigade of troops at once to deliver the final fatal blow. After rushing into Huangya Cave, sporadic battles were inevitable. Sufficient troops were the prerequisite for victory. This was how he fought against all levels of his subordinates.

What the officers said made them gasp in amazement. Your Excellency, the Commander, was really cautious and not careless in the face of the remnants of the Chinese troops who had lost the ability to resist. After reviewing myself, I became more and more aware of the foresight and foresight of Your Excellency, the Commander.

Being admired and flattered by his subordinates is a very useful thing, and the calm and ruthless Okamura Neiji is no exception. The red light on his face has already shown his mood at this time. He has a chance to win. It was originally planned to be three days.

It only takes a day and a half to end. Unexpectedly, the next target of action is Tang Qiuli's troops outside Shijiazhuang, another main force. Neji Okamura's thoughts have already left this and he doesn't need to worry about it anymore.

battlefield, and began to plan the next battle plan.

Hao Jinjia stopped the soldiers who were about to throw the grenade. Looking at their puzzled looks, Hao Jinjia said: "If you don't have any brains, we are the first point of fire. As soon as they hit, the little Japs will retreat. When the fight starts later,

When the little Japs can't stand it anymore and retreat, let's close the door tightly so that no one can escape." The soldiers suddenly realized.

Seeing that all the Japanese troops had entered the valley, and there was no gunfire behind them, Hao Jinjia couldn't help but feel a little anxious. He piled hand grenades beside him, and prepared two heavy machine guns and three Czech light machine guns for firing. He gave each heavy machine gun

Three ammunition handlers were equipped to ensure uninterrupted firepower, and bundles of ammunition were pulled out with fuses.

He knew in his heart that with his firepower, none of the little devils could even think of running back. After his work was done, he leaned comfortably against the stone wall and closed his eyes to take a nap. The silent valley became furious, and the steep and knife-like rocks on both sides

Countless small black dots suddenly appeared on the wall, rolling and falling like black birds all over the sky, with ominous white smoke and "chichi" sounds, which continued to expand in the frightened eyes of the Japanese soldiers.

"The enemy is attacking quickly, disperse and hide!" the Japanese commander yelled at the top of his lungs. In time, a brigade of men and horses were all crowded into a valley. Throwing a stone at random can hit their head, not to mention a grenade.

Do you know which smart warrior it is?

After the fire, there was a delay of a few seconds before throwing it out. The grenade exploded in the air, and the hot shrapnel rotated into the bodies of the Japanese soldiers. The helmets did not work at all. The brains of the Japanese soldiers at the center of the explosion burst, and the headless corpses were still running for a few seconds.

After a few steps, he collapsed.

At this time, the soldiers all woke up and followed suit. Black smoke exploded above the heads of the Japanese soldiers. Shrapnel roared, covering all the space. There were no blind spots. No matter how the Japanese soldiers ran, they were everywhere.

It's the hand that explodes in the air

Thunder, and bundles of tumbling and falling bombs. The explosive power of this thing is many times greater than that of a single grenade. Where the bomb exploded, the Japanese soldiers were turned into a pile of minced meat, with their internal organs mixed with blood.

Splashed on the faces of the soldiers around him.

In the valley several kilometers long, huge explosions echoed continuously, and the sound was muffled. Although it was not as majestic as the Japanese cannon, it was extremely lethal. The sudden explosion woke up the wandering Okamura Neiji, and he picked up his telescope.

, observing the situation in the valley, I couldn't see anything clearly except for the smoke of gunfire. I didn't see a single imperial soldier withdrawing. Could it be that they exchanged fire with the remaining Chinese soldiers in Huangya Cave?

He suspiciously ordered the communications team to immediately call Kurosawa Shota, the commander of the brigade leading the attack, to find out what was going on inside and whether follow-up support was needed. Why was there such a violent explosion but no gunshots? Things were so weird.

, the communication soldier called loudly, but there was no movement at all on the walkie-talkie. Okamura Neiji ordered without looking back, "Keep calling," and a feeling of uneasiness suddenly arose in his heart.

The commander of the Kurosawa Shota brigade can no longer answer the questions in the heart of the commander. He may be the most unlucky Japanese major general brigade commander in the Battle of Huangyadong. He followed the second regiment of his headquarters and rode on

Standing on a tall horse, wearing snow-white gloves, and a golden general's star, setting off his arrogant and cold square face, this is an extremely bloodthirsty Japanese general. During his military career, he was famous for his bravery in combat and his love of killing.

He especially liked to torture and kill young women from occupied countries. From North Korea to the Northeast, he tortured and killed at least more than 300 women. He once set a Kwantung Army record of killing eleven women in one day. His subordinates discussed privately,

Your Excellency, the Brigade Commander, seems to have a morbid hobby for women's blood. Such a murderous maniac, when he first arrived in North China, he couldn't wait to start committing crimes. Many Tianjin women were murdered by him.

.

Now, his golden Major General collar badge has become a reminder. There are at least dozens of sniper rifles aimed at his head, but Kurosawa Shota has no idea and is still urging his subordinates, "Hurry up!" Chang Feng ordered

, while the overwhelming grenades were still rolling in the sky, Kurosawa Shota became the first target to be hit. It was not a shot, but dozens of high-explosive bullets from sniper rifles, which simultaneously hit his short, stubby figure.

body.

Kurosawa didn't even have a chance to scream. Dozens of blood holes appeared on his body. His whole body was torn apart. He was shot at least three times in the forehead. His white brains followed the shattered skull and splashed all over the guards around him.

With his head and face covered, Kurosawa’s body is not there yet

After falling to the ground, at least four or five grenades exploded in the air, destroying the mangled body of this evil guy again. Kurosawa Shota and the Ocean horse under him turned into a rain of blood in the sky and could never be found again.

Evidence that it once lived.

This was also the second senior Japanese officer at the major general level who was killed after the Battle of Huangyadong. After the war, dozens of snipers believed that the Japanese major general was killed by one shot. They couldn't argue and the lawsuit went on forever.

Chang Feng, the division chief of staff, also had a headache. Every sniper could find witnesses, so he had to report the situation to the division commander Tang Qiuli.

Tang Qiuli simply decided that all the snipers who participated in the battle and killed the Japanese Major General Kurosawa Shota were awarded fourth-class merit and were awarded the honorary title of sharpshooter. Each of them was awarded two hundred yuan. In the Dingbian Daily and Evening News,

Publish their large photos and heroic deeds,

This was so extraordinary that the sharpshooters with accurate marksmanship were so excited that they tried their best to trade the heads of the Japanese soldiers for honors. This gave rise to the desire of the Japanese soldiers to practice their marksmanship, and a wave of

A large number of special shooters made the Japanese soldiers miserable.

The Japanese communications soldier shouted hoarsely, but failed to contact the commander of Kurosawa Brigade. Okamura Neji did wait for the Japanese soldiers. However, they did not return in triumph, but fled. Seeing their panic, Okamura

Ningji was speechless for a while.
