Liang Jian: Lao Li, I'm really not a military expert

Yoshio Shinozuka never dreamed that plans would never come as fast as changes. He originally wanted to take the opportunity to capture the Niangzi Pass position, but he didn't expect that not only would he not be able to capture the Niangzi Pass position, but he might even lose the position he was defending.

"Commander, the enemy has dispatched nearly a hundred bombers to bomb our frontier defenses, causing heavy losses to our frontline troops."

"The two heavy artillery battalions that were highly anticipated have already lost two squadrons. I've urgently ordered them to begin evacuating, but even so, there's no guarantee they'll be able to successfully evacuate."

"The third outer line of defense has been completely breached, and the second line of defense is currently experiencing heavy bombing by enemy bomber forces. Once the enemy armored forces catch up, the second line of defense will most likely fall."

"Once the second line of defense falls, our innermost first line of defense will most likely fall before dawn. By then, our 12th Army will have lost its true foothold."

"I request that the reserve troops be immediately mobilized to stop the enemy's attack, otherwise our 12th Army is likely to suffer a large-scale defeat."

Chief of Staff Ippei Mitsui pointed to the map on the wall and expressed his concerns. The current battlefield situation was even more dangerous than he said, and he was very anxious inside.

"Mitsu-kun, your concerns are not without reason. Once we lose our foothold, it will become very difficult to occupy the land beneath our feet."

"The enemy is equipped with a large number of rocket launchers, and the firepower they project exceeds that of an artillery division."

"We underestimated Li Yunlong before. We didn't expect that he would become a serious threat to us. I deeply regret giving him time to grow."

"We have no way to retreat now. The headquarters has issued a death order. Lord Tada just sent a telegram demanding that we hold our position at all costs and not retreat a single step. Otherwise, both of us will have to commit seppuku."

"Immediately give Aoki the order to lead the Aoki Division in a counterattack. Even if the entire division is destroyed, we must not let the enemy take our position."

"Also, send another telegram to Fujiwara Ichiro, requesting him to mobilize all available fighter planes to attack the enemy's Niangziguan position at all costs, to cover our 12th Army's defense of the position."

The newly formed independent division in northwestern Shanxi, under the command of Li Yunlong and Lin Zhenhua, launched a fierce counterattack against the Japanese 12th Army.

In just less than two hours, more than 10 artillery shells were delivered to the Japanese positions, and judging from the current situation, the firepower delivery will not stop in the short term, and it is very likely that the fighting will continue until dawn.

"College student, your new independent division designation has brought a lot of convenience to our command."

"All units launched a counterattack according to our orders. They have just completely occupied the Japanese's third line of defense and are advancing towards the Japanese's second line of defense."

"I've fought for so many years, but I've never been as wealthy as I am today. The number of artillery shells fired alone has reached 13. I never dared to dream of this before."

"Old Li, I've prepared 50 rounds of artillery shells for the Japanese this time. Let's see if they can handle them!"

Lin Zhenhua replied with a smile on his face.
