Traveling through 1937, I came to fight against the Kwantung Army

Wang Jian looked at his watch and said,

"The general offensive will begin tonight! It is now 4:10 pm. Twenty minutes later, the artillery fire will begin for an hour. Thirty minutes after the artillery fire, that is, at five o'clock, you will set out to cross the river. You must clear a passage through the minefield on the south bank of the Imjin River within thirty minutes!"

Zhang Baocai never stopped talking.

While eating the dinner in the lunch box with big mouthfuls, he nodded frequently!

Four thirty!

The sound of whizzing through the air continued to be heard!

Rockets were like angry fire dragons, with long tails of flames, cutting through the gray sky and rushing densely towards the British positions on the south bank. They shrieked and tore through the air in an instant, and the strong airflow entrained by the projectiles made the surrounding grass and trees sway wildly.

Soon after, the 150mm heavy artillery was not to be outdone. The huge muzzle spewed out orange flames, and the shells whizzed out with tremendous force.

The gun barrel shook violently due to the powerful recoil, raising layers of dust from the ground. Every time a shell landed, several meters of earth and rocks were lifted from the British positions, and the flames from the explosion instantly engulfed a large area of ​​the fortifications.

The British positions were already engulfed in flames, fortifications were blown away by the air waves, barbed wire was twisted and deformed, and panicked figures were everywhere on the positions. The roar of shells and explosions intertwined, deafening, and the earth was shaking under the continuous firepower.

Zhang Baocai had already eaten all of his lunch box. He wiped his mouth, threw the lunch box onto the ammunition box, and shouted to the engineers in the platoon,

"Everyone cheer up, it's our turn soon!"

It's time to set off.

After crossing the river,

Zhang Baocai and the soldiers lay on the ground, holding the three-meter-long demining rod firmly in both hands, exploring inch by inch. Every time they cleared a mine, it was like racing against time with death.

But the mine array laid by the enemy was as dense as a spider web. In the blink of an eye, the demining rods they carried were blown to pieces and turned into flying wood chips.

Looking at the minefield ahead, there was still at least half the distance and no demining poles were left, while the artillery fire behind was becoming more and more intense!

Zhang Bao realized that the artillery unit's final rapid fire was coming, and he estimated that they still had ten minutes!

With a "bang", the bullet tore through the air, and a soldier's head exploded instantly, and red and white objects splashed onto Zhang Baocai's face. Then, several more gunshots rang out, and several figures fell one after another, and blood quickly dyed the cold snow red.

The enemy's snipers hid in the dark, treating the soldiers as living targets. Every time they pulled the trigger, they took a life.

Looking at his fallen comrades, Zhang Baocai's eyes instantly became bloodshot, and grief and anger surged in his heart. He knew that if the mission failed and the mines were not completely cleared, the large army would suffer heavy losses and more comrades would be sacrificed.

A scene that surprised the soldiers appeared!

Zhang Baocai clenched his fists, hugged his head suddenly, and rolled forward resolutely!

As soon as he rolled, a mine exploded instantly, and the huge impact force threw him up and smashed him down again. Zhang Baocai's back was torn apart, his military uniform was torn into rags, and blood gushed out, leaving a shocking trail of blood on the ground.

The sniper's bullets whizzed through the air. But Zhang Baocai was completely unaware. He gritted his teeth, his mouth full of blood foam, and relied on his tenacious will to move forward inch by inch. Every time he rolled, the sound of mines exploding rang out one after another, and the ground was shaking.

Seeing this scene, several soldiers, with tears in their eyes, shouted and followed suit, rolling towards the minefield together!

Boom, boom, explosions sounded continuously!

I don’t know how long it took, but with the last dull bang, everything returned to calm.

The engineers successfully opened up a bloody path, but Zhang Baocai was already dying, with not a single piece of intact skin or flesh left on his body!

It was dark.

The charge finally sounded.

Zhang Baocai closed his eyes with relief!

The assault troops of the 116th Division rushed towards the south bank of the Imjin River like an arrow from a bow.

In just 8 minutes, the 116th Regiment of the 346th Division broke through the Imjin River defense line and advanced deep into the enemy territory!

Under the cover of night, the Volunteer Army’s 2nd Pontoon Bridge Regiment began to quickly build a rutted bridge on the river!

The tanks of the 39th Army have arrived at the riverside, waiting for the pontoon bridge to be built!

South Bank, on Highland 193,

The battle is over!

Chen Chao, the head of the 346th Regiment, looked at a group of British prisoners of war holding their heads on the ground, thinking about the strange order that the division commander had just given.

"The third battle aims to destroy the British and Australian troops!"

How come our opponents have changed from Americans to British? But the British are too weak!

A correspondent ran over and saluted.

"Report to the regiment commander, our regiment's tanks have crossed the river and are in position. The division commander has ordered us to quickly penetrate into Yuzhong (place name) according to the predetermined plan! Divide and encircle the British troops!"

Kalimantan Island,

presidential palace,

Yin Xinjun was smoking a cigarette leisurely.

On the table in front of him, there was a glass of beer with ice cubes!

Minister of the Interior Tang Junping reported:

"According to the latest statistics, the number of people who have registered as Haizhou nationals has reached , half of whom are from China, and all local Chinese have registered.

There are also about 3500 Chinese who came from Kuching City, but after verification, only half of them migrated here. The rest did not live in Haizhou! "

The city of Kuching is much larger than Haizhou, and the number of Chinese there exceeds 20!

Yin Xinjun said,

"Whether or not they live in Haizhou, all Chinese will be approved. Sooner or later, this island will be our territory!"

"What about other non-Chinese people?" Tang Junping asked!

Yin Xinjun had already considered this issue.

"It doesn't matter. We welcome it. From now on, Haizhou's schools will only teach one language, Chinese! Haizhou's government and the public can only use Chinese!"

Tang Junping nodded silently!

Then he took out a few more telegrams.

"President, here are some telegrams from home!"

Yin Xinjun picked up the first telegram, which was sent by Tang Yantian. He couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"Today, the Volunteer Army launched its third campaign!"

"The morale of the Volunteer Army is high now, and Yan Tian's 1st Assault Group is strong and powerful, so there should be no problem!"

"Bullets don't have eyes. I've reported this to the country, and I'm planning to transfer Yan Tian here in the near future! Call him back, and report to me immediately if you encounter any danger!"

"Yes, President!"

After the first two battles, the Volunteer Army had annihilated nearly 200,000 enemies without much loss on its own side. However, as the battle line lengthened, the dangers they faced also increased!

The United States' industrial strength is still far stronger than China's, and the number of its aircraft is far more than that of the Volunteer Army. This is the biggest problem that always faces them!

Yin Xinjun picked up the second telegram, which was sent by his wife Sai Mulan, asking about his situation in Southeast Asia!

Yin Xinjun and Sai Mulan agreed that within a year at the latest, when conditions here start to improve, he would bring all his family members to Haizhou!
