After graduating from Huangpu, he rose to prominence as a regiment leader.
Chapter 279: Facing the New 1st Army, the Kwantung Army’s real trump card?
"Damn it! How did things develop to this point?" Umezu Mijiro roared angrily.
We thought we could destroy that heavy firepower unit with certainty, but who knew that the Army Aviation Brigade was led to the anti-aircraft artillery array and never returned!
Although the Kwantung Army had a complete structure, an aviation brigade could not be lost at will. Umezu's heart was bleeding!
"And...and General Umezu!"
"The origins of this Xia army have been thoroughly investigated!" the deputy said stiffly.
"speak!"
"Ha Yi! General Mei Jin! According to intelligence, this armed force of the Xia Kingdom is indeed the New First Army!" the deputy reported with a pale face.
"We have all been deceived by the New First Army! The New First Army did enter the pass, but they only sent out a portion of their troops. The rest of the troops are hiding outside the pass!"
"After the war broke out, these troops began to gather and finally entered the country in full force!"
"I suspect that the New 1st Army has completely taken root in Fengtian in a short period of time, otherwise we would never have missed them. It's too late to say anything now!" said the deputy with a bitter look on his face.
Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for such a large number of troops to remain undetected.
But since the New First Army captured Fengtian, it seems to have suppressed the influence of their Kwantung Army to the lowest point and established its own power in this area.
In addition, the matter of the Kwantung Army entering the pass was very urgent, and the attention of the Kwantung Army and even the entire Xia Kingdom was attracted. Naturally, no one paid too much attention to the outside of the pass.
"Damn it! How do you explain the military strength?" Umezu Mijiro said with a grim face.
"Replying to General Mei Jin! This new First Army should be an integration of the original Northeast Army!" said the deputy, taking a deep breath.
"Are you talking about the armed forces in the three provinces of Kanto?" Umezu Mijiro suddenly remembered something.
In his impression, the Xia State armed forces, which were basically equivalent to guerrillas, were not a force to be reckoned with and posed no threat to their Kwantung Army.
"Yes, General! Our troops discovered a large number of former Northeast Army troops during the battle!" The deputy swallowed and said.
Those soldiers of the Northeast Army were extremely fierce in fighting and each of them was ready to die.
These armed forces that were originally scattered across the three provinces of Kanto have become an extremely powerful fighting force after being brought together!
Originally, the New First Army had only tens of thousands of troops, but now it has jumped to over 200,000!
Among them, the number of troops of the Northeast Army that were reorganized reached more than 100,000!
"Bagayaru!!" After his deputy finished speaking, Umezu Mijiro was furious like a volcano about to erupt!
Now the whole story is very clear, which means that the New First Army has already made full preparations!
From the moment the Fengtian area was captured and the clear-text telegram was sent, this action was not directed against the Kwantung Army.
Rather, it was to create momentum throughout the three provinces of Kanto in order to lay a solid foundation for their substantial expansion!
Originally, the Northeast Army had a large force, but its quality was mixed, making it difficult to quickly transform it into combat effectiveness. However, now the combat effectiveness of these Northeast Army troops has made a qualitative leap, which is obviously impossible to achieve in a short period of time.
From this we can see that this new army must have been planned in advance!
What a pity that until just now, he had not faced this opponent squarely, thus giving them precious time for development.
Even though this New First Army had a strength of 200,000 troops, it only sent one army group into the pass. Its intention was obvious.
As the commander of the Kwantung Army, Umezu Mijiro was reduced from a planner to a chess piece on the board!
"General Meijin! What should we do next?" the deputy asked hesitantly.
"Pass on my order! All the Kwantung Army aviation units are dispatched!" Umezu gritted his teeth and said, "Also, order the 3rd Heavy Artillery Brigade and the 19th Field Artillery Regiment to gather all their firepower and suppress the firepower of the New First Army. Destroy their rocket artillery positions at all costs!"
When he went out of the customs before, he did not dispatch all the army aviation units.
There is also the Kwantung Army Aviation Command in the three provinces of Kanto, with more than 50 airports and more than 200 aircraft. This is the trump card in his hand!
This time he really underestimated the New First Army and the opponent's supreme commander Qin Feng.
But now, the New First Army obviously has no idea how terrifying the Kwantung Army’s strength is.
This time, he would completely destroy the Xia army that dared to block the imperial chariot torrent, and Qin Feng must also be eliminated!
Giving your all is the greatest respect to your opponent!
"Ha Yi!" the deputy responded loudly.
......
"This! All of this?" Xue Yue couldn't help but take a deep breath and forcefully suppressed his emotions.
Standing on top of the Taipei City Gate Tower, they had a basically unobstructed view of the front.
The densely packed army green uniforms look uniform and neat, and the visual effect is extremely shocking!
Even though Xue Yue and others already knew the true strength of the New First Front Army, they couldn't help but gasp after seeing the overwhelming scene before them.
With just one glance, they can understand the combat effectiveness of this unit!
They were all standard weapons, and the gun in each soldier's hand looked very different from ordinary rifles, simply because this weapon was capable of firing continuously. In terms of individual soldier firepower, it was many times stronger than the Japanese Type 38 rifle!
In addition, there were a large number of assault soldiers armed with submachine guns, with full magazines and grenades on their waists.
In just one encounter, the Kwantung Army's line was torn apart!
And in the rear, powerful machine guns are firing alternately and continuously, with a clear division of labor in the battle!
At the same time, the artillery formations in the rear never stopped, and the continuous artillery support accurately bombarded the main units of the Japanese.
The people present were all top commanders of the Xia Kingdom. To them, this unique scene was a textbook-like interpretation of a large battlefield!
"Deputy Commander, what do you think Qin Feng is going to do?" Xue Yue couldn't help swallowing.
Judging from the battle situation, the New First Front Army completely suppressed the Japanese and was divided into two parts, north and south, which encircled the Kwantung Army, and the two armies were in a siege!
But the problem is that the Kwantung Army has several times more troops than the New First Army. How dare Qin Feng surround these 600,000 Kwantung Army?
This can no longer be called half-cooked rice; this is simply an attempt to swallow an elephant with a snake!
"This should be a preparation to cut off the battlefield and annihilate them by dividing and destroying them!" The deputy commander-in-chief also took a deep breath.
"Will this work?" Du Yuming asked with a grim expression.
Complete range of light and heavy firepower!
Grenade launcher!
Mortar!
What’s even more terrifying is that these troops are all elite soldiers who have been baptized by the battlefield, and they are not rookies at all!
This was completely beyond his imagination!
"Pass on my order! All members of the Eighth Route Army muster up immediately and join the battle!"
"Cooperate with the New First Army to launch the Battle of Beishi. We must kill the Kwantung Army's manpower to the greatest extent possible, and not let any of them go!" the deputy commander-in-chief gave the order decisively.
