I want to ruin the country

Kurosawa also tried to rush out, but as expected, he failed. Not only could not a person fly out, not even a fly could fly out.

Kurosawa also thought about surrendering, but no one paid attention to him.

Kurosawa Akira even wanted to commit suicide. I can't beat you, but why is it so difficult for me to surrender?

How could he know that Cai Hemin was just using him as bait, and his life or death was no longer important.

Having tried every possible means, Kurosawa gave up and could only wait for reinforcements to arrive with an empty stomach.

Today, my subordinates came to report that the Chinese had withdrawn, and he raised his hand and slapped his subordinates in the face. Damn, is he so hungry that he is confused?

His subordinates didn't even have time to protest and hurriedly asked him to go to the city to take a look.

He went to the top of the city wall and saw that there was no one there.

Just when Kurosawa Na was hesitating whether to open the city and escape, he saw dust flying in the distance, covering the sky and the sun. It was obvious that a large group of people had arrived!

As I got closer and looked at the flag, I found that it was our own people, reinforcements had arrived!

Kurosawa Na cried. Reinforcements really did arrive. No wonder the Chinese ran away. They were scared!

Kurosawa Akira quickly opened the city gate and went out to greet them.

Ii Yushin led his army into the city and met with Kurosawa Akira. Kurosawa Akira's first words were,

"General Ii, is there anything to eat?"

Ii Yushin hurriedly asked his men to bring cold rice balls, and Kurosawa Akira took them and started to eat them ravenously.

When Ii Arisunubi saw this, he was shocked and wondered how a general could be so hungry. He wondered how many days had he not eaten?

Soon after, Matsui Gogen's 50,000 troops also arrived.

After the three men discussed it, they decided that Ii Arinobu's 50,000 men would enter the city, while Matsui Gogen's 50,000 men would be stationed outside the city, so that they could take care of each other.

In the evening, the generals had a good meal and drink. Everyone was very tired after the long march, so they had a good rest and would talk about the battle tomorrow.

That night, Kurosawa Akira slept very soundly. He was not anxious and had a full meal, so of course he could fall asleep!

The next day after breakfast, the men came to report in panic,

"Report to all generals, we are surrounded!"

Matsui Gogen was not panicked. Now they had an army of 100,000 strong, so who would be afraid of being surrounded?

Kurosawa Akira, Ii Yushin and Matsui Gogen led dozens of their senior officers to the city wall and watched into the distance through binoculars.

Sure enough, the city was full of enemy troops and they were surrounded by Chinese troops again.

Cai Hemin deliberately let Ii Arinobu and Matsui Gogen in.

Otherwise, they are scattered here and there, and it would be very troublesome to look for them everywhere.

According to everyone's advice, we should have just killed him that night.

Cai Hemin refused to do it.

"Don't worry, just finish the work and go to work calmly after breakfast tomorrow!"

Today, the soldiers finished their meal early and began to make preparations.

Cai Hemin stood on a high place, staring at the top of the city wall with a telescope.

Beside him, there are twenty PBP172 120mm heavy mortars.

This mortar has a combat weight of 170 kilograms, uses ordinary shells, and has a maximum range of over 8 kilometers.

Using extended-range ammunition, the maximum range reaches about 9.8 kilometers.

Sure enough, he saw a group of people climbing up to the top of the city wall. Judging from the way they were surrounded and their attire, they were a group of generals of all ranks.

Cai Hemin pointed at the top of the city wall and asked the observer,

"You see the top of the city!"

"Report to the commander, I saw it!"

"I order you to fire at the city walls together. Make sure to eliminate those people with the first round of artillery fire!"

"Yes!"

Cai Hemin's strategy this time is to capture the leader first, knock off their heads, and the rest will be easy to deal with.

And his goal was to capture them, not to blow them all to death!

Since the emperor wanted prisoners so much, he would bring more prisoners back to him.

Prisoners don't need to be paid for their work, just provide them with food. It also saves ammunition, killing two birds with one stone.

Twenty observers observe and adjust the shooting parameters separately. The advantage of this is that it is impossible for all the first shots to be accurate, but it is also impossible for none of them to be accurate. There will always be one shot that will be accurate.

Just one 120mm shell would kill all these people.

When everyone is ready,

"Get ready, let go!"

"Bang bang bang bang!"

Twenty mortar shells flew towards the target one after another.

Boom boom boom boom!

After a series of explosions, the entire city wall collapsed, and the people who were originally standing there disappeared without a trace.

Twenty mortars aimed at one target, the consequences can be imagined.

Everyone has seen the TV series "Bright Sword", in which Li Yunlong ordered Zhuzi to destroy the Japanese headquarters with one shot. This theme is true and has a source.

On November 1939, 11, during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, during the Battle of Huangtuling in Laiyuan County, Hebei Province, the regimental commander Chen Zhengxiang of the Eighth Route Army under Yang Chengwu ordered 8-year-old soldier Li Erxi to fire four shells from a 18mm mortar, killing Abe Nobuhide, known as the "flower of famous generals" of the Japanese army.

He was the highest-ranking Japanese general killed by the Eighth Route Army during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression.

How can the power of 75mm mortar shells and 120mm mortar shells be compared?

During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the caliber of the Japanese mountain artillery was only 105 mm.

Such artillery caused huge casualties and pressure to the National Army and the Eighth Route Army.

Twenty 120mm mortar shells reduced the entire city wall to ashes.

Until their death, Kurosawa Na, Ii Arinobu, and Matsui Gogen did not understand where the shell that killed them came from.

The sound of the mortar here is equivalent to the order to open fire, and then all kinds of shells fly towards the enemy.

The rumbling sounds of explosions rang out one after another, and suddenly, the enemy troops inside and outside the city fled in all directions.

But where to escape? Even the buildings in the city can't withstand the shells.

After twenty minutes of shelling, Cai Hemin ordered a stop.

Then, someone shouted through the loudspeaker,

"Surrender your weapons and you will not be killed. Surrender and you will be spared death. If you still don't surrender by sunset, we will continue the bombardment!"

After the artillery fire, the soldiers were on high alert, being on guard against these Japanese soldiers who might act desperately.

In fact, Cai Hemin was worrying too much!

They wiped out all the high-ranking generals of the Japanese, and now the highest-ranking officer left is the captain.

A brigade consists of twelve squads, and each squad has forty people.

These captains can only command one of their own brigades and cannot manage others.

Some captains were panicked and didn't know what to do. They didn't have the courage to organize a fight, and they were afraid of being shot if they organized a surrender.

Several team leaders got together to discuss the issue, but they couldn't come up with a good solution.

The most pitiful ones were the more than 2,000 people under Kurosawa Nakamura. They had been hungry for so many days. They originally thought that they would not starve with the arrival of reinforcements, but they did not expect that they had only a full meal last night and had no food again today.

They asked the later troops for it, but they refused to give it to them.
