Bright Sword: Start with Ding Blast Bridge, Homemade Sweet Potato Cake

The sudden movement of the two columns' firepower startled Fukutaro Nishiyama.

Immediately return to the front line of command to investigate the situation of the Eighth Route Army.

Several defensive fortifications deployed on the front line were destroyed by firepower, and more than 120 Japanese and puppet troops stationed there lost their lives.

The casualties were not heavy, and compared with the casualties in previous battles, they could only be described as minor.

"General, the firepower of the Suirecha Military Region has become stronger. Multiple artillery positions have been deployed on the front line, which can provide fire coverage for our defense area."

This kind of thing still needs to be reported to the staff. Nishiyama Fukutaro is not stupid and can tell it by the sound of artillery fire.

The Third Column had six mountain artillery positions firing at him. If he heard the sound correctly, it was the sound of the Type 6 and Type 41 mountain artillery.

The former is not worth mentioning. It is an old-fashioned artillery with a maximum range of only 6500 meters. Compared with other 75mm artillery, the range difference is obvious.

New mountain artillery generally has a range of 8000 meters. For example, the Bofors mountain artillery has a maximum range of 9000 meters.

The Third Column was equipped with both old mountain artillery and the Japanese's new mountain artillery, with a maximum range of 8300 meters, posing a great threat to the positions of the 23rd Division.

This is nothing. The 8 artillery shells in Ding Wei's hands were seized from the First Army, of which 2 to 3 were mountain artillery shells.

This means that the enemy's artillery reserves are sufficient, which greatly increases the threat posed by this Eighth Route Army unit.

With cannons, bullets, tanks and planes, Ding Wei's Suirecha Military Region is about to be turned upside down.

Both columns had a strong desire to attack, and they relied on the artillery positions they had built to create firepower suppression.

The 23rd Division must find a way to bring two more field artillery regiments over to suppress the supporting artillery fire in the mountainous area.

The headache was that the defensive front was too long, stretching from the north to the east of Rehe, almost the entire Yanshan area, covering the troops of both sides.

Even if two field artillery regiments were dispatched, they would not be able to conduct mopping-up operations in the mountainous areas.

Does it mean that Ding Wei's two columns will involve the entire 2rd Division, plus two field artillery regiments?

In the Xilingol area, the cavalry column's attack has never stopped.

After advancing into the eastern mountainous area to suppress bandits, they faced the Japanese fortress area and pressed into the western part of Tongliao.

On the surface, there are only three columns with a total strength of only 23 to troops, which is similar to the strength of the rd Division.

However, the guerrilla forces were increasing, and the Northeast Anti-Japanese United Army also launched frequent attacks. The shadow of the Eighth Route Army appeared in Manchuria, and the villages on the edge of liberation were quietly being liberated.

With Yanshan area as the core, multiple guerrilla forces radiated outward.

These guerrillas consisted of 20 to 30 people at most and only seven or eight at least.

They seized weapons and ammunition from Ding Wei and rushed directly into the mountainous area to carry out the revolution.

A single spark can start a prairie fire. In order to deal with the guerrillas, the Japanese need to deploy more puppet troops and more security forces.

The Kwantung Army withdrew 8 divisions to support the Pacific War and transferred the elite Type A divisions away.

The information given by the Army Headquarters was not enough, far from enough. It was planned to withdraw 44 elite divisions and deploy them to the Pacific battlefield between 45 and 10.

This made Nishiyama Fukutaro afraid to fight and dare not take the initiative to attack.

The actions of the first and third columns were unusual, and Ding Wei's intentions were not yet guessed.

They were able to detect the company-level forces of the Eighth Route Army and try to advance towards the enemy's garrison area.

The artillery fire was fierce and the offensive was relatively fierce. The casualties of the puppet troops and Japanese devils responsible for the front-line defense quickly exceeded 300 people.

Can’t figure out what Ding Wei means?

The main force of the 23rd Division joined the defense and withdrew part of the guard and puppet troops to the rear.

During the confrontation, Nishiyama Fukutaro had puppet troops and guards guard the front line. After noticing the offensive of the Sui-re-cha military region, he pushed his own troops forward.

It's pretty cruel. The casualties of the puppet army are not counted. Then the 300 casualties counted are only those of the Japanese?

According to conservative estimates, more than 300 Japanese soldiers and more than 800 puppet soldiers were killed.

The number of injured people is not included in the statistics.

The artillery fire continued to press forward, and high-explosive grenades exploded, raising huge clouds of dust.

But the Japanese would never have thought that the offensive of the two columns was a feint to create opportunities for the special forces.

The Japanese focused their main energy on the Chifeng and Chaoshi front lines and on the two columns of Zhang Dabiao and Gao Qing.

However, they ignored the small group of elite troops led by Duan Peng, who went straight to the rear and infiltrated into the Fuxin area.

Zhou Zhujun is here to provide support. There are a large number of anti-war alliance members in the Fuxin security team who can provide support.

They entered the urban area easily. Disguised as the main force of the Japanese army withdrawing from the front line and as wounded soldiers of the 23rd Division, they entered the Fuxin city hospital.

The aviation personnel who were injured some time ago are also receiving treatment here.

All I could hear was the sound of something falling in the room.

"Is this for human consumption? Damn it."

The food conditions of the Army Air Force were better, but the food standards of ordinary soldiers were already appalling. Even the Kwantung Army, which had relatively abundant supplies, had problems with logistics.

We must tighten our belts and save money to cope with Operation No. 1, leaving the saved supplies for the combat troops.

These guys from the Army Aviation don't care about the logistics situation or not, and they are using stuff that even dogs wouldn't eat to fool the wounded soldiers.

As soon as Duan Peng entered the hospital, he saw this group of arrogant guys who had made the hospital a mess.

There was actually alcohol in the ward.

It takes no effort at all.

Pretending to have a leg injury, Duan Peng limped in on crutches and closed the door.

"Asshole, who told you to come to my room? Get lost, this is the captain's private room."

Damn it, Duan Peng suddenly staggered forward and slapped the other person in the heart.

The Japanese captain, who was already injured and unable to move, had his ribs broken by a slap in the face.

The sudden pain made his eyes bulge and he couldn't breathe.

His neck turned red and veins were exposed. After struggling for a few times, he fainted.

The broken rib had pierced into the heart, and the wound could not be seen from the outside.

Easily solve one and search for the next target.

The special forces disguised themselves as wounded soldiers, frequently going in and out of the pilots' ward, and killed all 47 injured people.

The hospital was filled with the smell of disinfectant and blood.

After the disinfectant alcohol was overturned, a fire ignited the floor.

Duan Peng and others retreated to the stairs.

Seeing the room on fire, the aviation personnel who were resting nearby came over to help transfer the wounded, and the two groups met on the stairs.

The gunshots were crisp, with bursts of fire.

The Army Aviation pilots who rushed over were shot one after another.

The special forces team had very strong combat effectiveness. After emptying their magazines, they pulled out daggers and other close-range weapons and attacked the Japanese soldiers who were not yet dead.

Fires were everywhere, gunshots rang out, and the special forces decisively emptied the magazines. In the chaotic battle, they quickly ended the killing.

Evacuate through the back door.

Zhou Zhujun was already there to coordinate at the back door, personally leading the way, and sending Duan Peng and the others out of Fuxin before the city was sealed off for search.

The communications personnel hurried to the 23rd Division Headquarters and whispered something in the ear of the division commander.

"What? All killed?"

Nishiyama Fukutaro was shocked, and the Fuxin Flying Group in the rear was assassinated in the hospital.
