Draw the sword and cure the fear of insufficient firepower

In Taiyuan city, the Japanese army camp was already in a state of chaos.

The Japanese had never seen such a scene before. They shouted in panic. Everyone picked up their weapons and prepared to fight back. The artillery in the city hastily set up their cannons.

When they saw clearly the direction from which the shells came, they were stunned. It was clearly a fire net!

However, the commotion in the Japanese barracks gave Wang Chengzhu a reference.

The lights in the Japanese barracks were originally off, with only a few scattered lights. Wang Chengzhu and his men almost mistook the barracks for a residential area and did not dare to fire blindly.

Now the Japanese are going to fight back, so we have to turn on the lights in the middle of the night, and all the searchlights should be turned on at the same time, shining them madly in all directions.

When the light came on, Wang Chengzhu and his men were so amused that they thought who else could be there with the searchlight except the Japanese. They adjusted their guns and fired at them!

The Japanese were crying for their parents due to the unprecedented fierce artillery fire, and various units made frantic calls for help to the headquarters.

And Shouzai Saburo also held two telephones and called Peking for help with trembling hands.

So far, the enemy's artillery bombardment has not stopped, but there is no sign of the enemy.

All you could see was dense flames crashing towards Taiyuan city.

"Commander-in-Chief! Connect me to the Commander-in-Chief!" Saburo Sushiarai was shouting hysterically while holding the phone. Suddenly, more than a dozen 107mm rockets hit the yard of the headquarters. The aftermath of the explosion blew off the tiles on Saburo Sushiarai's roof, which fell to the ground with a crackling sound.

"Ah! Hurry up, the commander-in-chief is sleeping?! Hurry up and wake him up, Taiyuan is under attack! Taiyuan is under attack!! The enemy has tens of thousands of artillery pieces, yes! Tens of thousands!"

"How many troops? One hundred thousand! The enemy must have one hundred thousand!!"

Shouzai Saburo was so frightened by the sudden explosion that he hid under the table holding the phone.

In response to the inquiries from the transfer personnel at the North China Front Army Headquarters in Peiping, Hisashi Saburo answered in panic.

The Japanese who transferred the call were confused. Tens of thousands of artillery pieces? One hundred thousand enemy troops? The total number of artillery pieces in China probably didn't even reach ten thousand, right?

Although such words were ridiculous, the Japanese did not dare to be careless. From the panicked voice of Shouzai Saburo with a hint of crying on the phone, they could tell that if Taiyuan was not in crisis, Shouzai Saburo, as the head of an army, would still have to maintain at least some dignity.

The Japanese immediately uploaded the message layer by layer. Ten minutes later, in Okamura Yasuji's dormitory, a Japanese general knocked on Okamura Yasuji's door with heavy steps.

"Nani?!"

"One hundred thousand troops?! Where did the one hundred thousand troops come from?!"

"We have people in the Central Army. Their military deployment cannot be hidden from my eyes!"

"The Shanxi-Suiyuan Army was badly damaged in the last battle. It is impossible for them to gather a hundred thousand troops to attack Taiyuan! Unless Yan is crazy!"

"Eighth Route Army? It's even more impossible! The Eighth Route Army is now in a fierce battle with the Locust Army in Ping'an County. It is impossible for them to have spare troops to attack Taiyuan!!"

"what on earth is it?!"

After listening to the description of the general beside him, Okamura Neiji was shocked. He could not imagine who was attacking Taiyuan at this time.

"General! I wonder if it's the First Division of the Eighth Route Army?"

"According to what Shouze-kun said, the enemy only fired artillery fire and did not launch a charge!"

"Looking at the density of firepower, I can't think of a second unit other than the division with a large number of rocket launchers!"

"But according to intelligence, there are only about 4,000 to 5,000 people in a division. It's impossible for them to have so many artillery pieces. Shou Xijun must be exaggerating!"

The Japanese general leaned forward and spoke in a deep voice.

"Yeah! That makes sense!"

"If this is really the first division, then this will be a great opportunity!"

"Order the locust army to quickly support Taiyuan, surround the enemy forces near Taiyuan, and quickly annihilate them!"

"It just so happens that the advancement in Ping'an County is not going smoothly. After annihilating the first division, the reinforcements will not stop and will quickly move towards Ping'an County to encircle and annihilate the main force of the Eighth Route Army!"

"This battle will determine the fate of Jin Province!!"

Okamura Neiji was a very cunning man. Based on the analysis of his subordinates, he immediately worked out a complete battle plan.

This plan can be said to be flawless. No matter how powerful a division is, the number of people is always a shortcoming. The Japanese can mobilize an army several times or even dozens of times larger to besiege a division, nibble away at it step by step, and gradually consume it. Even if they just use a brute force to outnumber the enemy, they can still win.

Then the army took advantage of the victory and attacked Ping'an County. The Eighth Route Army in Ping'an County had been fighting hard with the Japanese for days and must have been exhausted. At this time, if a large army launched a fierce attack, the Eighth Route Army would definitely be annihilated.

Without the Eighth Route Army, the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army is no match for the Japanese, and the Central Army does not have many troops, so Shanxi Province will completely become the Japanese territory.

Orders were sent out from Peiping to the surrounding areas, and the Japanese in Hebei Province quickly set out.

At the same time, all the fighter planes in the three Japanese airports near Taiyuan took off, and the roar of the engines was very harsh in the silent night sky.

After receiving the order from Peiping, Shouzai Saburo finally breathed a sigh of relief. More than 90 fighter planes on his side were already heading towards Taiyuan, including the fighter planes he had previously sent out to bomb Li Yunlong, which were also called back. Lin Tian could be said to have saved Li Yunlong inadvertently.

No matter how powerful the Eighth Route Army was, it could not withstand the repeated attacks of fighter planes and bombers. Moreover, they also had biological weapons...

"Report to the commander, Liu Zhenhua has been ordered to lead the First Division Air Force to arrive! Please give your instructions!!"

Lin Tian, ​​who was standing on a high slope admiring the sea of ​​fire, suddenly heard Liu Zhenhua's excited voice on the radio.

"Oh? Great! Sweep away! You can fly over the heads of the Japanese and identify where the Japanese headquarters is!"

Lin Tian also became excited and gave the order excitedly.

They had been bombing for a long time but still had no idea where the Japanese headquarters was. Now, once the air force arrives, they will definitely be able to find the Japanese headquarters by strafing at low altitudes.

Everything will be easy as long as we know the coordinates of the Japanese headquarters.

Since Liu Zhenhua's MiG-15 fighter formation has arrived, it means that the B-29 bombers will be arriving soon.

Now outside the city of Taiyuan, there are thousands of artillery pieces on the ground and two B-29 bombers in the sky. Lin Tian doesn't believe that he can't wipe out the Japanese headquarters in one fell swoop.

Sometimes decapitation operations do not require special forces to carry out.

Whether you cut off the Japanese commander's head with a knife or chop it off directly with a machete, the outcome will be the same.

A cat is a good cat whether it is black or white as long as it catches a mouse.

"Hahaha, Commander, just wait and see, we're going to find the location of the Japanese headquarters!"

"Comrades, three fighters in a group, fly in formation, and take turns strafing!!"

Liu Zhenhua's hearty laughter came from the radio, and then the MiG-15 fighter jets were heard swooping down...
