Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 667: Tianjin succeeds

Japanese Tianjin garrison commander Ono Ichiro felt that the troops defending Tianjin were insufficient. The eastern area of ​​Tianjin was rapidly attacked by the Japanese Army Division troops from three directions. The troops sent to block the attack were weaker in strength and firepower than those of the Chinese Army.

The situation in the direction of Ninghe River was better. The defenders and the Chinese ** Corps fought to a draw and successfully curbed the offensive of the Chinese ** Corps. The front line was stabilized in the Renfengzhuang area south of the Ninghe River.

The situation in the direction of Bamiancheng and Beitang was in danger. The 3,000 reinforcements respectively could not stop the advance of the Chinese Army and were forced to retreat step by step. Ono became anxious and issued a death order to block the attack on the spot.

Allowing the Chinese ** Team to take another step forward, he also knew that for the troops in these two directions, it was difficult to carry out such an order. They could only use their flesh and blood to suspend the Chinese ** Team's offensive and fight for their own adjustment of deployment.

time.

After receiving the order, all the Japanese and puppet agencies in Tianjin, who had anything to do with the Japanese, were mobilized. Several large arsenals were opened, and there was a long flow of people queuing up to receive guns and ammunition. There was a chaotic and tense atmosphere.

At this time, those who can take the initiative to go to the front line, except the Japanese, are all die-hard traitors of the Japanese. Tens of thousands of people gathered in several places with great momentum. After every five hundred people received guns and ammunition, a military policeman immediately

Take them to the defense line in northwest Tianjin.

Here, there are soldiers from the Special Operations Unit and the Quick Response Brigade of the ** Division. The soldiers from the Special Operations Unit speak fluent Japanese and can easily sneak in. The soldiers from the Quick Response Brigade are all locals, pretending to be traitors or traitors.

He was a fake official, not a problem. Ono only wanted to mobilize, but he didn't know that he gave the lurking troops an opportunity.

The battle in eastern Tianjin started, and the troops lurking in were gearing up and waiting for the signal to start the general offensive. The sound of gunfire continued for most of the day, but the division commander refused to give orders. He looked at the chaotic Japanese and traitors running around in the streets, and gathered them into a few big ones.

In the arsenal, guns were taken away one by one. The five special operations team captains and two regiment commanders who led the team were anxious and their eyes were on fire.

A few clever soldiers were sent to investigate the situation. When the soldiers came back to talk, a few people used their brains and got together to discuss. They decided to send two special operations units and two battalions of the quick reaction brigade to pretend to be Japanese expatriates or pseudo-employees.

, simply sneak in, and when the time comes, a front-line defection will have a much better effect than in the city. The rest of the troops will continue to carry out the sabotage plan in the city.

It must be said that the organizational efficiency of the Japanese is quite high. Three hours later, a temporary combat team of nearly 60,000 people arrived at the defense area in northwest Tianjin. Among them, there were Japanese who were determined to die, and some

The soldiers of the Jing'an Army in North China, whose eyes were darting around, and the officers of the pseudo-officials who deliberately fell behind.

The Japanese at the front were in an impassioned manner. Some of the Japanese were in their fifties, jumping more joyfully than anyone else, and even had silk ribbons tied on their foreheads, talking about "must win" or something like that.

I wrote a bunch of things in a mess, carrying an old samurai sword in its scabbard behind me,

Shouting the slogan "Kill all the Chinese pigs" seemed to bring back the feeling of the Russo-Japanese War or the Sino-Japanese War of Sino-Japanese War. The soldiers who had blended into the crowd of people who didn't know whether they were dead or alive laughed secretly and took a few steps to catch up with these old Japanese bastards.

, when the fight starts later, I will let you take a bullet first.

The Japanese were very proud. Under the leadership of the Yamato national warriors, the cowardly Chinese people also became brave. They patted the soldiers on the shoulders, extended their thumbs, and repeatedly said, "Want to the west, want to go to the west." Ono Ichiro learned about the temporarily formed militia,

Arriving at the position so quickly, my eyes were shining with excitement. This is the spirit of the Yamato nation. In addition to pride and pride, I also felt greatly relaxed.

A counterattack can be organized. Xianxian and Suning's troops cannot be counted on. The Chinese army is fighting fiercely wherever it is, and the Kwantung Army cannot be completely relied on. There is only four or five days to enter the pass. The only thing we can count on is our own troops.

, if we don’t counterattack the Chinese troops that broke into the eastern suburbs of Tianjin, it will pose too great a threat to Tianjin’s defense line.

Ono Ichiro issued an order to mobilize 13,000 troops from the defensive positions in northwest Tianjin to launch a full-scale counterattack against the Chinese army from Bamian City, Ninghe, and Beitang at the same time. It must be before dark.

The Chinese soldiers retreated to the east of the Ning River and restored their original defensive positions in eastern Tianjin.

The ferocious attacks by Yu Guanghan's troops forced Ono Ichiro to repeatedly send more troops to eastern Tianjin. On the northwestern Tianjin defense line, there were only more than 12,000 Japanese regular troops, plus less than 60,000 militiamen, including two

Thousands of soldiers from the Army Division sneaked in. Such a defense line looked like a large number of soldiers. It was a ragtag group of people who were good at pulling the bolt. In fact, they were in a chaotic position. The embankment of sand piles reduced the combat effectiveness of regular troops.

The frequent mobilization of the Japanese army and the chaotic entry of the civilian army into the position all fell into Tang Qiuli's eyes. Yu Guanghan did a great job, and finally reduced the Japanese defensive strength to the lowest point, and the army's battle plan was more concealed than ever before.

Success, the Japanese commander would never have thought that when they

Not far away, troops from six field infantry brigades and three artillery brigades were ready to attack. Looking at the time, Tang Qiuli smiled slightly. If nothing happens, Tianjin will fall at dawn tomorrow.

In my own hands, it was a full forty-eight hours ahead of schedule.

In the precious two days, many battles can be deployed calmly. Chen Feng, the director of the communications department, sent a telegram. Tang Qiuli laughed. It was so interesting. There were more than two thousand of his own soldiers on the opposite position. Okay, order.

Going down, each unit pays attention to identification signs and does not accidentally injure its own people. Twenty minutes later, a general attack will be launched across the entire front.

No matter how tight the fighting in the east was, he was not in a hurry to attack. No matter how far the Japanese army went, it was too late to turn back. But at this time, Ono Ichiro's mood was completely different. The arrival of the second batch of reinforcements allowed the Japanese army to gradually gain control of the battlefield.

Taking the initiative, Yu Guanghan's troops, according to the division

Under the command of Chang Tang Qiuli, he took the initiative to retreat more than ten kilometers to the starting position of the attack, giving the Japanese some sweetness. Ono believed that he had reversed the situation on the battlefield and gained the initial initiative. Fortunately, Tianjin finally crossed

After the initial crisis, everything was fine.

Before Ono had time to laugh out loud, a burst of earth-shattering gunfire made the window glass rattle and made him jump out of his chair. What happened? A staff officer ran in with a look of panic on his face, "Report to the commander."

Your Excellency, the Chinese army launched a sudden attack in the northwest of Tianjin. It is initially estimated that the number of troops is about 100,000, and the artillery firepower is the size of three brigades. The forward positions were severely bombarded."

Ono rushed over nervously, grabbed the collar of the staff officer, and shouted with a fierce look: "Baga, what nonsense, did the Chinese army fall from the sky?" The staff officer was frightened by the fierce appearance of the commander.

There was a short circuit in my head. I forgot that I still had the telegram in my hand. I stared with frightened eyes, not knowing how to answer.

Ono grabbed the telegram and glanced at it quickly. His first reaction was that the scheming commander of China had been fooled by the scheming commander of China. In fact, the Sulu Mobile Corps had attacked the northwest periphery of Tianjin and still had positions.

Ono's more than 50,000 troops would not be able to support him for long. Tang Qiuli did not want to waste too much time and minimize casualties, so he adopted the tactic of attacking in the east and attacking in the west.

"Hurry up and immediately order the troops to reinforce Jindong, return to the urban area of ​​Tianjin at full speed, and establish street fighting positions along the route." Ono ordered hoarsely. The staff officer ran out like a leader. Ono slumped in his chair. He was finally not completely

Chaos

He still knew that street fighting would take place in the urban area, but he knew that it was too late. Since the China commander had adopted the strategy of attacking from the east and attacking from the west, he would not let the troops in eastern Tianjin return to the urban area. A wave of despair came to Lieutenant General Ono Ichiro.

heart.

The overwhelming artillery shells fell on the Japanese positions, and those yawning pseudo-North China Jing'an Army, pseudo-officers, and traitors were immediately exposed for their true colors. Their faces were pale and their calves were trembling. They were expecting to steal and take advantage of others.

, I had to make a good impression in front of the Japanese, and then I arrived at the outer positions of Tianjin where there were no bullets flying around. If I were to go to Jindong, I would not go there even if I was beaten to death. I never imagined that this is not an easy place to mess around. If I had known this, what would I be pretending to be?

Big clove of garlic

Watching the artillery shells fall, the Japanese who were roaring just now turned into a pile of minced meat in the blink of an eye. Oh my God, nothing is as valuable as heads and melon seeds. The soldiers mixed in the crowd took the opportunity to shout: "No!"

Already, middle

The Central Army's planes and artillery are coming. Run if you want to live." This shout added to the terrifying atmosphere. With a whoop, more than 40,000 people of the 60,000-strong civilian army suddenly ran away, including many companies.

The Japanese also ran down.

The so-called "defeat like a mountain" has just begun. The ** Division's artillery salvo has not ended yet, and the Japanese defensive positions are in chaos. The soldiers caught in the fleeing crowd are not idle, and they are looking for opportunities.

, shoot at close range, or simply speak with a bayonet

, the Japanese who had long been disliked were called out one by one, and the troops were in chaos. No one noticed this. Each soldier killed at least three or four before following the flow of people and ran to the city. If he didn't run away, his own people would be killed.

The cannonball is about to land on top of the head.

There are only more than 12,000 regular Japanese troops left in Tianjin's northwest defense line. In addition to the die-hard Japanese military police and expatriates, there are only more than 30,000 people. How can they withstand the full bombardment of thousands of cannons from three artillery brigades?

On the position, mud flew up, smoke billowed, and flesh and blood flew everywhere. The nearly 100-kilometer defense line had no troops and it was impossible to establish a deep defense. Attacking one point would cause the entire line to collapse. What's more, Tang Qiuli wanted to attack across the entire line.

An hour after the bombardment, a string of red signal flares slowly rose into the sky on the front of the attack. More than 80,000 soldiers from six infantry brigades jumped up and swept over like a violent wave. They stepped on the still warm soil and swept over with a wave.

, the remaining Japanese troops' weak resistance was immediately submerged in the torrent.

As the setting sun put away its last glow, the troops passed through the suburbs of Tianjin and poured into the city. Tang Qiuli walked out of the hiding place, took a comfortable breath of air containing gunpowder smoke, and said to the mountain tiger beside him: "Huzi, enter the city.

"An attitude of eagerness to try.
