Anti-Japanese War: Plunder the devils to create a super army

"Brigade Commander! The Eighth Route Army troops outside the city have surrounded all the city gates!"

In Cangzhou city.

The Japanese brigade commander stood on the city wall, looking through a telescope at the Eighth Route Army troops who were building fortifications in the distance, and couldn't help but curl his lips.

"These damned creatures actually came to attack Cangzhou..."

The Japanese brigade commander put down the telescope in his hand and looked at his subordinates beside him with a firm gaze.

"Inoue, we must take the initiative and order the artillery to immediately bombard the Eighth Route Army's outer units! We must not waste this opportunity!"

Looking at the tense, smileless and extremely serious face of the Japanese brigade commander, his men couldn't help but feel a little hesitant and deliberate.

The subordinate lowered his head and said cautiously, "But... we only have a few artillery pieces left. Even if we fire them, I'm afraid it won't cause much real damage to them..."

After a brief pause, he added, "And doing so is very likely to provoke an even more violent counterattack from the other side."

When these words reached the ears of the Japanese brigade commander, the anger in his heart erupted like a volcano.

He just stared with his eyes wide open, his glare bulging with veins on his forehead, and roared loudly.

"Baga Yalu! How dare you, such a coward, say such depressing words!

He is simply a complete coward! He is a disgrace to the reputation and dignity of our Imperial Japanese Army! "

Before he finished speaking, "Pa! Pa! Pa!" a series of crisp and loud slaps suddenly rang out.

It turned out that the Japanese brigade commander, who was so angry that he was embarrassed, raised his right hand and slapped his subordinate's terrified face without saying a word.

After being slapped unexpectedly, the subordinate staggered and almost fell to the ground.

However, he did not dare to complain at all. He quickly stood up straight, then respectfully bowed deeply to the Japanese brigade commander and said in a trembling voice: "I'm sorry! General, please calm down!"

Seeing this, the Japanese brigade commander was still furious, but he suppressed his anger and shouted harshly.

"What are you still doing here? Take action now! I want to see results as soon as possible!"

"Yes!" the subordinate responded quickly, then turned around and trotted away to carry out the order.

At this time, the Japanese brigade commander looked into the distance and saw the Eighth Route Army soldiers busy digging fortifications.

The corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a sinister and cunning smile.

Not long after, several deafening artillery roars were suddenly heard in the city.

In an instant, flames shot up into the sky, smoke filled the air, and the entire battlefield fell into chaos...

Dozens of cannons instantly spewed out tongues of flames, and shells were fired at a rapid speed, attacking the Eighth Route Army's positions.

"Artillery fire! Take cover!"

The Eighth Route Army soldiers reacted quickly and rushed into the fortifications that had been carefully dug as agilely as cheetahs.

In an instant, "Boom! Boom! Boom!" Sharp and piercing explosions came one after another from beside them, as if to tear the world apart.

The powerful explosion caused the ground beneath their feet to tremble violently, as if the end of the world had come.

The raging fire generated by the explosion instantly engulfed the entire position, and the scorching flames licked every inch of the land.

"Damn you little devils! Just wait and see how I kill you!"

The commander of the 388th Brigade stared with his eyes wide open at the horrific scene of continuous artillery fire and smoke outside, and the anger in his heart had burned to the extreme.

He secretly swore that he would make these hateful Japanese devils pay for their crimes with blood and completely erase their names from the book of life and death in his hands!

Time passed minute by minute, and after about ten minutes, the terrifying sound of artillery fire finally subsided.

However, the Eighth Route Army's position was in a mess at this time. The billowing smoke rose up like a ferocious beast, covering the sky and the sun, almost completely obscuring the entire position.

"Artillery! Prepare to counterattack! Hit them hard! Destroy all these damn bastards!"

As the commander of the 388th Brigade roared with anger and determination, the artillery in the rear immediately went into combat mode.

The loader skillfully loaded shells into the barrel, while the gunner focused his attention on the Japanese positions on the distant city wall.

There was a loud "bang" and the gunner decisively lowered the firing device. Shells whizzed out of the cannon like arrows.

They drew graceful arcs in the air, carrying endless anger and hatred, and smashed straight into the Japanese positions on the city wall with the force of thunder.

The huge explosion directly destroyed the Japanese position, and flames shot up into the sky, engulfing everything in flames.

The continuous and intense bombing made it impossible for the Japanese army to raise their heads.

The machine gun position that had just been set up was hit by a shell and all the people were killed.

"Bagayalo! These damn Eighth Route Army soldiers, their artillery shells are even more powerful than ours!"

"Don't look up! Save your strength! Wait until they attack before we open fire!"

"Ahhh! Stop firing! I'm going crazy!"

……

The entire Japanese position was in chaos.

There were screams and wails everywhere, and the ground was covered with bodies and rubble shattered by shells. There was almost no intact place.

"Brigade Commander! The Eighth Route Army's artillery fire is too fierce! Our troops on the city wall are about to collapse!"

The subordinates hurried to the command room and reported the situation on the front line to the Japanese brigade commander.

But at this time, the Japanese brigade commander was completely numb.

He originally thought that the Eighth Route Army's artillery would not be that powerful, and his own artillery could completely suppress them.

Who knew... that the situation would turn out like this...

At this time, there was continuous artillery fire and explosions outside.

Documents were scattered all over the command room, and all officers were contacting combat units at the front to resist.

But the fact is that the Japanese troops on the front line have been tortured to the point of being in agony by the artillery of the Eighth Route Army. They are simply struggling in hell.

There is a shortage of troops and medicines everywhere. It can be said that Cangzhou is now on the brink of collapse.

"Order... Soldiers, continue to resist..."

The Japanese brigade commander had no choice at this time. It could be said that Peking would not send reinforcements to them. After all, Peking was unable to protect itself, so how could it save them?

After the Eighth Route Army's artillery bombardment, cracks finally appeared in the Cangzhou city wall.

Immediately afterwards, the city gate collapsed with a loud bang, leaving a huge crack.

"Oh no! The city wall is broken!"

"The Eighth Route Army is charging! Quick, block the gap!"

"Quick! Back off! Back off!"

……

Seeing the city wall being breached, the Eighth Route Army soldiers immediately rushed into the city.

The four city gates were breached one after another, and the Eighth Route Army soldiers poured into Cangzhou City like a tide.

The defense line that the Japanese army had struggled to hold up was instantly broken by the attack, and they were completely powerless to resist.

Soon, a large force of the Eighth Route Army rushed into the inner city, only a few hundred meters away from the Japanese headquarters.

"Brigade Commander! The Eighth Route Army... are about to attack..."

At this time, the Japanese soldiers were as depressed as death. They looked at the Japanese brigade commander beside them and wanted to say something, but swallowed it back.

"what……"

The Japanese brigade commander stood solemnly in the command post, his weathered face filled with sorrow.

After taking a deep breath, he let out a long sigh, as if he wanted to spit out all the resentment and helplessness in his heart.

Then he slowly closed his eyes, as if trying to escape the cruel reality before him.

After a moment's silence, the brigade commander took out his pistol from his waist with trembling hands.

The cold touch of the metal made his fingers tremble slightly, but he still gripped the pistol tightly and pulled the bolt without hesitation.

The crisp sound echoed in the silent command room, sounding particularly harsh.

The subordinates on the side saw this scene and instantly understood what their leader wanted to do.

One of the officers stepped forward quickly, tears in his eyes, and said in a choked voice, "Sir! I hope I'll have the opportunity to fight and work side by side with you again in the future..."

However, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by a burst of fierce gunfire.

At the same time, the Eighth Route Army's large forces surged towards the Japanese headquarters like a tide.

The soldiers were in high spirits, their cries of fighting resounded through the air. After a fierce exchange of fire, the Japanese defense line was finally broken, and the Eighth Route Army quickly rushed into the command post.

The Japanese brigade commander who attempted suicide failed to achieve his wish and was eventually captured.

Before long, the news of victory spread throughout the battlefield.

The Eighth Route Army successfully broke through the Japanese headquarters and completely occupied Cangzhou City.

This victory not only greatly boosted the morale of our army, but also laid a solid foundation for subsequent battles.

The news spread like wildfire and quickly reached Wang Lin's camp.

Wang Lin, who was anxiously awaiting the battle situation, heard the signalman's excited cry: "Brigade Commander! We've taken it! We've successfully captured Cangzhou City!"

The signalman's face flushed red, he was so excited that he could hardly control himself, and he rushed into the tent.

He didn't bother to wipe the beads of sweat from his forehead, and hurriedly handed the telegram that had just arrived from the front line to Wang Lin.

Wang Lin couldn't wait to take the telegram, quickly glanced at the content, and immediately smiled.

As expected, the joint forces consisting of the 388th Brigade and the 385th Brigade performed well in this battle and captured the strategic location of Cangzhou in just a short time.

"Haha, well done! The combat effectiveness of these two brigades of new recruits really shouldn't be underestimated!

"We were able to capture Cangzhou City so quickly, good job!"

Wang Lin was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling and kept praising the heroic performance of the participating troops.

Excited, Wang Lin walked to the military map hanging on the wall and carefully examined the distribution of the enemy and our side's situation.

While studying the map, he was thinking about his next plan of action.

"Now we have taken Cangzhou, and we are one step closer to Beiping and Jinzhou, but this is not enough..."

Then Wang Lin set his sights on Bao City in the west.

"We're just one more away. With this one, we can encircle Peking and Jinzhou!"

It is obvious that Wang Lin’s next step is to take over Baoshi, which is very close to Beijing.

This is his next plan.

"Order all units of the special operations brigade to prepare their weapons and equipment. The next battle is about to begin."

"Brigade Commander...where should we attack next?"

Wang Lin looked at the communicator, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

"Baoshi!"
