Sword of Light: I Can Summon the Fourth Disaster

"But if you don't cooperate, then just wait for the players to attack you."

"The players are not easy to deal with. They destroyed a Military Control Station before, and the Air Force even sent out bombers."

"The Military Control Commission saw Wang Zizai's attitude and they didn't dare to say anything. They could only accept Wang Zizai's words."

"Since then, all the military commanders in the areas under our actual control have changed their affiliations and are now surnamed Wang."

At the end, Wang Guangru couldn't help laughing.

Hearing this, Xiao Zongmin also smiled and said, "These military intelligence officers are good at gathering intelligence, so Wang Zizai has made a profit. But once or twice, it is also unfair to Wang Zizai."

Wang Guangru also said with some emotion: "The areas we actually control are only Shanxi, Hebei, Shandong and Henan, plus a few enclaves such as Sanqin and Lin'an. The rest of the areas are either occupied by the devils, or the Kuomintang-controlled areas, and the rest are areas occupied by warlords."

"If we turn against the government, there will probably be huge public resentment, and the devils will also be happy to see us turn against the government."

"That's right. Although we have wiped out millions of the Japanese, they have not been seriously injured. They still occupy a large area of ​​our land. After arriving in Beijing this time, it is time to give the generals in the front a reassurance."

......

On the southern front, in Yaozhuang, the sound of gunfire was heard constantly.

The 9th Corps of the Jiangsu-Zhejiang Column bypassed the Japanese territory in Xiuzhou in advance and stopped a Japanese brigade and two Japanese detachments that were fleeing from Xiuzhou to Shanghai in this small village.

After a day and a night of fighting, the First Regiment of the Sixth Detachment of the Ninth Corps repelled more than a dozen attacks by the Japanese and firmly held them here.

In the Japanese command center, several injured Japanese major generals gathered in front of a map to discuss how to break out.

The Yokota Detachment, which was responsible for the main attack, had been severely damaged in the day-and-night battle. Only one of the five infantry battalions was now able to fight.

The corpses of the Japanese soldiers were scattered all over Yaozhuang, and a large number of Japanese wounded were wailing on the battlefield. The Japanese were no longer able to rescue them.

Yokota bowed sharply to a Japanese major general and pleaded, "Mr. Okada, most of my detachment has been killed or wounded. I hope that Mr. Okada will take over my position and serve as the main attacker."

Okada nodded awkwardly and said, "Mr. Yokota, my detachment only has four infantry battalions. When attacking, please include Mr. Yokota's infantry in my attack sequence."

"That's enough. Next, my 11th Independent Mixed Brigade will take the lead in the attack, and the two infantrymen will join my attack sequence as support." Takahashi Shigemitsu, who was sitting next to him, interrupted.

"There are only two infantry battalions and one military police battalion in the Xiuzhou direction, as well as three divisions of the Locust Army defending. They won't be able to hold out for long against the enemy's powerful army."

"Now we can only break through the channel to Shanghai as soon as possible and withdraw the troops back to Shanghai, so that we have a chance to counterattack."

"Hai!"

After the 11th Independent Mixed Brigade took over the two Japanese detachments as the main attack force, a field artillery battalion launched a fierce bombardment at Yaozhuang.

Mo Sheng, the commander of the first battalion of the first regiment of the sixth detachment, felt the dust falling on his head and asked the commander of the first regiment in some confusion.

"Captain, why didn't you use cannons when the Japs couldn't be defeated before?"

The commander of the first regiment, Luo Weimin, said with a smile: "Old Mo, this is a different time. Previously, the Japanese thought they could quickly break through the defense line we built, so they used light infantry when they attacked."

"We have been fighting for a whole day and night, and their previous main attack force has not even been able to rescue the seriously injured. This means that they are already at the end of their strength."

"Now that the enemy has just started to attack with such heavy fire, it means that they are trying to break through."

"Lao Mo, pass on my order. Let our regiment's artillery launch a counterattack to suppress the enemy's artillery fire. After the artillery fire stops, the infantry will prepare for an assault. It's time to destroy these devils!"

"understand!"

“Boom boom boom…”

“Boom boom boom…”

After a regiment of artillery began to counterattack, the Japanese field artillery positions were hit by a wave of covering bombardment.

Under the fierce artillery fire, the remaining ammunition on the Japanese position began to detonate. The explosions continued one after another, and it was obvious that there were no living people on the position.

In the Japanese command center, several Japanese soldiers suddenly felt the earth shaking.

Hearing the continuous explosions coming from his own positions, Takahashi Shigemitsu roared with a livid face:

"Baga, the Dragons' heavy artillery! Order the infantry battalion to start alternating and covering the attack. Don't stop attacking until you break through the Dragons' defense line!"

"Hai!"

After the artillery fire stopped, the Japanese infantry began to attack the position of the first regiment from Yaozhuang.

At this time, Zheng Yong, the commander of the Second Regiment who had just arrived in Yaozhuang, looked at the corpses of the Japanese soldiers scattered all over the ground and said in amazement: "Damn it, it's still Lao Luo who is capable. He has forced the Japanese soldiers to this point."

The pressure from the regiment was too strong for the Japanese. The infantry of the 11th Independent Brigade started a desperate charge as soon as they arrived at the battlefield.

Li Hao, the chief of staff of the Second Regiment, made a brief observation and said with a smile, "It seems that the Japanese haven't discovered us yet. When the Japanese rush up, we will rush out from the side and catch them off guard, and then cooperate with the First Regiment to annihilate these Japanese."

Zheng Yong smiled and nodded: "If we can turn the encounter into a blocking battle, the casualties of the First Regiment must be considerable. We should also reduce the pressure on the First Regiment."

At this moment on the battlefield, the shouts of "Board!" came one after another. The Japanese infantry no longer relied on the earthen walls as cover, but rushed straight towards the position of the group.

The Second Regiment seized the opportunity and suddenly attacked from the flank, with the submachine guns in their hands continuously spewing flames, which immediately cut the Japanese charge sequence in half.

“Puff, puff, puff…”

“Da da da da…”

The sound of machine guns on the first regiment's position continued to ring out, and they fired at the scattered Japanese soldiers who had no way to advance or retreat, suppressing the Japanese in Yaozhuang.

After seeing the mortar battalion in place, Mosheng asked the signalman to notify the Second Regiment to withdraw from Yaozhuang.

This time, their first battalion had to break the defensive line they had built with their own hands and force the Japanese to engage in a field battle with them.

After Zheng Yong received the news, he led the Second Regiment to withdraw from Yaozhuang one after another with alternating cover. After being free of pressure, the Japanese soldiers of the 11th Independent Mixed Brigade rushed to the position of the First Regiment for the first time.

At this moment on the battlefield, the Japanese only saw a large number of discarded gun barrels and several thick layers of bullet casings under their feet.

The captain of the Maeda Battalion saw this and said with a grim smile: "Notify the brigade commander and tell him that the Longguo army has been defeated by our Maeda Battalion."

But before he could finish his words, mortar shells rained down on the position of a group of soldiers, and the dense shells blew the bodies of the Japanese soldiers everywhere.
