Chapter 78: Fortification and Bombing

With the Japanese's order, the common people around Shuozhou were in big trouble. The Japanese and some imperial troops rushed into their homes.

They stole all the food and warm clothes, and burned down the houses of these people after they left.

The Japanese were deliberately creating a humanitarian disaster. When the 78th Army arrived at these places, their first thing was not to look for the Japanese.

Instead, a huge amount of manpower and material resources are needed to resettle these hungry, frozen and dying people.

In order to save military rations, the Japanese drove all the people of Shuozhou out of the city and even stripped them of their clothes.

Of course not all the people did. Some who were determined to follow the Japanese and the families of the Imperial Army still lived well in Shuozhou.

Nearly 10 people suddenly lost their homes and livelihoods, which made Wang Chun and other members of the 78th Army extremely hate the Japanese devils' cruel, despicable and shameless behavior.

Fortunately, Wang Chun can gain gratitude and a lot of attention by helping these homeless people, although it cannot make up for the massive consumption he needs to pay.

At least there can be some subsidies. Even without these, Wang Chun still has to save these people. He can't just watch them starve to death or freeze to death in the wilderness!

This time the attack on Shuozhou had to be temporarily stopped. The Japanese's inhumane behavior once again pushed themselves into the abyss.

Just when the Japanese army learned that the 78th Army had temporarily stopped its military operations and instead focused on rescuing the homeless poor Chinese people.

30 Stuka dive bombers carrying 500 kilograms of incendiary bombs visited the Japanese military camp in Shuozhou City.

Anyway, there are only the Japanese devils and those guys who are determined to be traitors in Shuozhou City now.

At present, the Great Piaoliang has not yet broken through the absolute defense circle set up by the Japanese in the Pacific Ocean, so those incendiary bombs have not yet landed on their homeland.

Today, the city of Shuozhou experienced the terrifying scene of fire falling from the sky.

At 8.30: in the morning, the Japanese troops stationed in the city had finished their breakfast and started their daily training.

Just as they were conducting infantry drills, the sound of airplanes buzzing in the sky to the south.

"Attention to air defense! Attention to air defense!" The shrill air defense alarm sounded in Shuozhou City.

"Master! Didn't you say that if I followed the Master, I wouldn't have to worry about this or that anymore? How come it's only been less than two years and now our family is going through another bombing!"

The wife of Zhang Cheng, the commander of the 13th Division of the puppet army, hugged her son's bag tightly, which contained all her belongings and gold and silver jewelry, while complaining to her husband breathlessly.

They were originally the National Army, and were bombed by the Japs every day. Now they have surrendered to the Japanese, and now they are being bombed by the National Army in turn. What is this!

"Okay, stop complaining! Who the hell knew that the Japanese were so powerful a few years ago, how come they are so powerful now? Let's just hide in the cellar and wait it out!"

Commander Zhang and his family, young and old, hid in a cellar built outside the house that was originally used to store vegetables in the winter.

"Boom boom boom" the rumbling sound of artillery fire has begun to be heard, but the Japanese do not have many anti-aircraft guns, only twenty or thirty, which do not pose much threat to the Stuka fleet in the sky.

Looking at the Chinese fighter planes flying arrogantly overhead, they began to drop aerial bombs on targets such as military camps, warehouses, and division headquarters.

Shimizu Kiji and a group of officers from the 41st Division team did not look very happy.

"Baga! Where are all the Empire's fighter planes? Have they all hidden in women's crotches?"

Colonel Shinichi Kamiki of the 48th Infantry Regiment cursed the incompetence of the Japanese Army Air Force.

This was not the first time that Chinese planes had flown over Shuozhou City, but since the appearance of Chinese fighter planes, Imperial planes had only appeared once.

That time, in front of the eyes of the whole city, three Empire Zero fighters were actually driven away by the Chinese fighters.

The last one was shot down, one was damaged and forced to land, and another was forced to flee, but the Chinese fighter plane did not lose a single hair.

Since then, fighter planes of the Imperial Army Air Force have never appeared in Shuozhou City again, but the anti-aircraft guns and anti-tank guns that were requested to be allocated to the 41st Division have not been seen to this day.

As a result, China's fighter planes became more and more unscrupulous. Today, they simply did not send out any fighter planes, but directly sent out these thirty Stuka bombers of their German allies.

When the Japanese soldiers mentioned the Stuka, they became angry again. Germany, the ally of the Empire, actually stabbed them, the Great Japanese Empire, and sold some weapons to the Chinese. The Empire had been trying to buy these weapons from them, but they refused to give in.

"Boom boom boom" continuous explosions exploded in several important places, but this time the sound of the explosion was not loud, which made some Japanese officers feel strange.

But what happened next scared them half to death, because although the explosion was not powerful, it was an incendiary bomb thrown by the Chinese.

A black slimy incendiary bomb, and it's the kind of hellfire that can't be extinguished.

Many soldiers accidentally got stained with the black slime while fighting fires, and then tragedy happened. Just a tiny spark could splash onto the soldiers.

It will keep burning all the way to the bones, and it will not stop until all the mucus is used up. The key is that this mucus is also highly toxic. Even if the soldiers who are burned by it are rescued, they will still die from wound infection within a few days.

Of course, these were only discovered afterwards, as the raging fire enveloped the entire bombed area.

Thick black smoke covered the entire city. This fire could not be put out, and many soldiers sacrificed themselves while trying to put it out.

In the end, all the Japanese soldiers could only watch the fire continue to burn and spread. The fire burned for a whole day and only began to slowly go out in the early morning of the next day.

This battle caused nearly 1300 casualties, but after counting the injured, it was found that most of them were dead.

The bombing did not stop. Although the 78th Army outside the city was anxious to rescue the people, the air force was very idle!

Anyway, General Wang said that they should just practice their flying skills. Almost every day, veteran pilots would take new pilots to bomb Shuozhou City.

Later, some veteran pilots felt that there was no challenge and began to target the anti-aircraft artillery positions.

The newly exchanged B17 bombers also began to join in. The bomb load capacity of such aircraft is not comparable to that of the Stuka.

The entire Shuozhou City suffered a disaster. The Japanese devils and traitors were retaliated by the 78th Army because they robbed and drove away the people.

And the revenge was so brutal, bloody and shocking.

Drop incendiary bombs today, switch to ordinary bombs the next day, and then drop some chemical bombs. Anyway, the people in the city now are all Japanese devils and traitors.

No one would be sad if they all died, it would be a pity for the city of Shuozhou, but there is nothing that can be done!

War definitely comes at a price. At worst, we can just tear it down and rebuild it, and then ask the Japanese dog emperor to reimburse the expenses later.

If they don't reimburse them, they will capture the queens, princesses, and royal consorts to make money. Anyway, the Japanese are best at the flesh trade.

After nearly ten days of bombing, the Japanese 41st Division was almost going crazy.

They sent out telegrams requesting tactical guidance one after another, and the response they received was always that reinforcements were on the way and asked them to hold on.

It is true that the reinforcements were planning to go to reinforce, but after they had gone halfway, they were bombed by five B5s in the air.

The Japanese 22nd Division from the Mengjiang Corps immediately withdrew to Datong (Tong). No matter how they were urged, they kept refusing on the pretext that they had suffered heavy casualties from the bombing and needed to rest.

The 41st Division was in trouble! The puppet troops in the city could no longer bear it, and every night some of them would secretly climb down the city wall and escape.

The 41st Division finally had to send out military police to patrol the city day and night, and execute anyone caught on the spot!

But it still couldn't effectively prevent the Imperial Army from escaping. Qingshui Guiji decided not to defend the city anymore. They needed to take advantage of the fact that the Imperial Army had not completely lost control. Fortunately, they had more troops than the two sides.

No matter how you look at it, the force ratio in this battle is 60,000 to 30,000, so I have the advantage in this battle! They want to take the initiative to attack!
