Sword of Light: I Can Summon the Fourth Disaster

Chapter 241 Seeking Stability in Chaos

With obstacles in front and pursuers behind, Wu Zhisheng acted decisively, harassing the enemy in front and taking the opportunity to withdraw from the battlefield.

But who could have imagined that before Wu Zhisheng's order was conveyed, the Japanese were bombarded.

Watching the shells fall into the Japanese formation and explode a large area, Wu Zhisheng swallowed his saliva.

"What a large caliber artillery shell this must be!" Wu Zhisheng muttered as he held up the telescope.

"Commander, should we retreat while the Japanese are stretched thin?" Wu Zhisheng's adjutant suggested.

Hearing this, Wu Zhisheng shook his head, put down the telescope, and pointed at the Japanese soldiers howling in the artillery fire on the road.

"Look at these devils. They have been bombarded for so long and have not escaped the coverage of the artillery fire. You should know that those large-caliber heavy artillery are not far behind us."

"But the distance is not that far. To be able to project it so accurately into the enemy's formation, there must be artillery observation posts nearby that provide them with coordinates."

"If we suddenly appear, there is a high possibility that we will be identified as enemies by their observation posts. If we are bombarded at that time, it will be a disaster for us."

After listening to Wu Zhisheng's analysis, the adjutant flattered him and said, "The division commander is indeed a top student from the artillery department. He was able to guess the location of that mysterious artillery group."

"But Commander, the enemy's outer line has now spread out to the reed marsh where we are hiding. What can we do to avoid the large-caliber artillery from bombing us?"

Wu Zhisheng narrowed his eyes, looked at the Japanese soldiers who were fleeing in panic, and said coldly: "What else can we do? We should shoot them first and drive them back to show our attitude!"

"I understand!" Upon hearing that Wu Zhisheng's words made sense, the adjutant immediately arranged for a messenger to notify the troops under him.

After Wu Zhisheng's order was passed on, many cold gun muzzles were exposed in the originally peaceful reed marsh.

Whenever there were Japanese soldiers who panicked and ran into the reed marshes, bullets would burst out from the gun muzzles and pierce their chests.

The players not far away watched this scene with a meaningful smile on their faces.

Khakass Big Dog: This group of puppet troops is really interesting. They didn’t unleash all their firepower, but just let the precision shooters eliminate the remaining Japanese troops.

Innocent Little Turkey: Hey, the leader of this group of puppet troops is quite interesting.

Spicy Little Turkey: Be careful, the puppet army must have guessed our existence and are afraid of being affected.

God Loves Crazy Dance: Not only that, when this group of puppet troops moved, we followed them all the way. Their advance and retreat were quite methodical. It seemed that the leader of this group of puppet troops was a military academy student.

Khakass Big Dog: This group of puppet troops has only more than 3,000 people. Isn't it a waste of talent for the Japanese to use a military academy student as a regiment commander?

Spicy Little Turkey: More than 3,000 people are a division-level unit in the puppet army. Plus, the puppet army was disbanded by us in Wuhu before, so I guess it should be a division-level unit.

Innocent Little Turkey: How about we take a gamble and bet that these puppet soldiers dare not attack us? I think the commander of the puppet army likes him more and more. It’s time for us to capture some prisoners to expand the army.

Spicy Little Turkey: Don’t be stupid, kid. Although we have a conversion policy for prisoners, generally speaking, none of the puppet soldiers at the regimental level can pass the interrogation of the Fengxian Section.

Khakass Big Dog: Indeed, all puppet army cadres above the regimental level are already on our list of traitors to be eliminated.

Innocent Little Turkey: Let’s not talk about it anymore, that group of devils are about to run away!

God Loves Crazy Dance: You can’t run away. We have a regiment moving quickly towards this side, which can just block the enemy’s retreat.

Just as God Ai Fengwu said, Sato Shotaro was preparing to move in with an infantry battalion of the 18th Regiment. He had just turned around and walked a short distance when he saw machine guns already set up over there, waiting for him to fall into the trap.

Wuhu Wuhu Column Headquarters

Mr. Yu Shanqiao looked at the telegram in his hand with some surprise.

"A blocking battle and an encounter battle was turned into an annihilation battle by those guys?"

Taoist Tianmen frowned and said, "Although it was a battle of annihilation, it was only after the artillery launched a surprise attack on the enemy's formation that our infantry regiment pushed back and ate up the enemy."

"The infantry regiment we have has suffered heavy losses. The Japanese fired a lot of poison gas bombs when they were breaking out. If our soldiers hadn't been equipped with gas masks, I'm afraid that regiment would have been destroyed."

Yu Shanqiao thought for a moment and asked, "The specific casualties have not been reported yet. Tell us what you know."

Taoist Tianmen shook his head and said, "I don't know much, but there are quite a few wounded soldiers at the field hospital. I heard that one company was directly hit by a poison gas bomb, and everyone from the company commander to the soldiers was hit."

Upon hearing this, Yu Shanqiao slapped his belt angrily and said, "These inhumane beasts! Order all the troops in the column to keep as much distance as possible during the battle and use our artillery advantage to deal with them!"

"Yes!"

Capital

After the fall of the capital, the troops responsible for the attack on the capital, 237 officers and soldiers from Zhang Zonglin on down, were transferred to the First Bakery in the capital by a transfer order from Huang Zherang. From then on, the defense of the capital was handed over to Zheji Chensha.

At this time, in the temporary municipal government of Beijing, Zheji Chensha was handling the work at hand.

After entering the city some time ago, they wiped out the remaining Japanese troops and drove out the foreign embassy troops stationed in Dongjiaomin Lane.

However, the situation in the capital was still not optimistic. Although he had ordered his soldiers to check the household registration and clear out the remaining enemy forces in the capital, the effect was not very good.

Just last night, the commander of the Fifth Division, Feng Lingdu, had just entered the capital when he was assassinated on the street by a group of Japanese spies.

If Feng Lingdu hadn't brought a company of guards with him, he would have probably been killed by the Japanese.

Zhejichensha knew that now the spies, traitors, secret societies, local chambers of commerce, old men and young people as well as the remnants of the Japanese pirates in the capital all wanted to disrupt the capital.

However, due to the limited manpower at hand, Zhejichensha was unable to hire anyone to handle these matters.

Fenglingdu entered the city just because they wanted to mobilize a security police team from the Fifth Division to enter the city before they failed, but that incident happened right after they entered the city...

Just when he was filled with sorrow and worry, Feng Lingdu's loud voice rang out outside the door.

"Old Lu! Where is Old Lu? You have to give me an explanation!"

Zheji Chensha opened the office door helplessly and invited Zheji Chensha to come in.

But Zhejichensha looked reckless and looked like he was going to cause a scene in the city government!

“Feng Lingdu, you have to know that I am not only the acting mayor of the capital, but also the head of the Fengxian Department of the Chen Hubai Corps. Are you sure you want to make a scene here?”
