Anti-Japanese War: I have a million soldiers and you call me a division commander?

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

Against the backdrop of the night, the three red flares were so conspicuous that the Japanese and puppet troops who were laying mines were bewildered.

The officers and soldiers of the 1st Independent Division were shocked and tensed their muscles, waiting for the fireworks display to begin.

"Predetermined target, five rapid-fire rounds, fire!"

"Predetermined target, release!!!"

"Predetermined target, release!"

And at the artillery battalions of the artillery regiments directly under the division headquarters and various infantry regiments, ambushed at distances of ten kilometers, seven kilometers, and five kilometers, commands came one after another.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

"boom!"

"..."

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

At one moment, more than seven or eight hundred artillery pieces of various types gathered in the two counties and roared.

Shells ranging from as small as 75mm mountain artillery shells to as large as 914mm giant artillery shells flew out from the gun barrels, crossed several kilometers, and exploded within an area of ​​400 to 500 meters wide and one kilometer long at the north gates of the two county towns.

"Boom! Boom!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The Japanese and puppet troops who were laying mines were stunned by the violent explosion!

What's going on? Why did the Chinese troops suddenly start shelling?

But after being dumbfounded, they frantically wanted to retreat, but dense artillery shells fell quickly in such a small area. No matter how fast the Japanese and puppet troops were, could they be faster than the artillery shells?

In order to lay out dense minefields, the two counties sent nearly a thousand Japanese and puppet troops.

After each gun fired five shells, more than 2,000 Japanese and puppet troops were killed, and all the mines they had just laid were triggered and destroyed.

An attack channel four or five hundred meters wide was cleared.

When the artillery fire began to extend backwards, the troops quickly moved out and the engineering troops also followed suit.

However, the mission of the engineering corps was not to attack. Their only mission was to quickly repair a road for the assault artillery troops to pass through quickly.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

"Boom! Boom!"

"Boom!!!"

For a time, Yanggao County and Tianzhen County were filled with explosions and the flames of bomb explosions.

The Japanese and puppet troops were stunned!

The foreigners who returned to Yangyuan County were stunned!

"No, it's already dark, don't you guys want to rest?"

The foreign devils didn't even bother to eat. They cursed Chu Feng for being a bad son and secretly launched another attack. At the same time, they hurriedly started to put on their clothes, wanting to go to the battlefield to watch the battle.

But as soon as they stepped out, they were stopped by Major Yuan, who said with a smile, "Everyone, our troops are engaged in a battle, which involves military secrets. It is not convenient for you to watch. Please go back and rest and wait for our notification."

"?????"

After hearing what Major Yuan said, the foreigners had a lot of question marks on their heads.

"What do you mean?"

"If we can watch the battle today during the day, it won't be a military secret anymore. Will it be at night?"

Something is wrong! Very wrong!!!

"Could it be that the 1st Independent Division has more advanced weapons and equipment?"

"That must be it, cunning Chu Feng, damn it!"

The foreigners were not stupid either. They immediately realized that the 1st Independent Division might have a batch of weapons and equipment that could not be displayed to the outside world.

The weapons and equipment of the 1st Independent Division during the day gave them such a big surprise that they couldn't help but think in this direction.

Out of curiosity, the foreigners expressed their protests.

"Major Yuan, you can't do this! We're applying to watch the battle!"

"Major Yuan, we are all professional soldiers. Please trust our expertise!"

"Major Yuan, we are friends. Is this how you treat your friends?"

"Major Yuan, please tell General Chu that we, the Mao Bear Country, are very eager to watch the battle in person."

"..."

Faced with the foreign devils' various arguments, Major Yuan had only one sentence: "Sorry, this is an order from the division headquarters, everyone please go back!"

Seeing Major Yuan's stubborn attitude, the foreigners were very angry but could do nothing about it.

The foreigners also guessed some of it right, that's right! ~

This was another arrangement made by Chu Feng. He had quite a few secrets now, but not many in terms of weapons and equipment, such as assault tanks and flamethrowers. There was nothing else. Most of them were advanced manufacturing equipment and technology.

These things are not easy to expose, but Chu Feng did this just to bluff, making the foreigners guess and believe that he really has other good things in his hands.

He mainly plays a mixed game of truth and falsehood to confuse the foreigners, so that he can have more advantages in the subsequent game and the foreigners will never know how many cards he has.

On the other side, when the bombardment began, General Terauchi Hisaichi, who was relieved, was just about to eat.

But when he was about to put the first piece of meat into his mouth, the bombardment began.

The loud explosion made him stand up quickly, and the piece of meat in his hand was dropped.

"idiot!"

"What's going on? Are the Chinese attacking again?"

General Terauchi Hisaichi had a very ugly expression on his face. From the moment he learned that Chu Feng was going to take action until he arrived in Yanggao County this morning, he had been in a very happy mood.

But since then, all kinds of bad things have happened. Not only was a big hole in the proud city defense broken, but in order to avoid the bombing, he had to stay in the air-raid shelter for a whole day.

I wonder when Terauchi Juichi has ever suffered such injustice. After so many years of fighting with China, it was often their planes that wreaked havoc over the Chinese people's heads. When did they become the ones being wreaked havoc?

"Your Excellency, Commander, Your Excellency, Commander!"

Just as General Terauchi Juichi was anxiously waiting for news, he saw a major general rushing in, his face full of horror: "The Chinese have launched an attack. They have not only mobilized hundreds of artillery pieces for bombardment, but also sent out armored tank units."

"The troops we sent to lay mines were also wiped out in the artillery attack just now."

"Right now, the Chinese troops, under the cover of tanks, are rapidly approaching. Our troops are suppressed to the point where they can't even raise their heads. They should be entering the city soon."

Upon hearing the report from the Japanese major general, General Terauchi Hisaichi's expression froze.

Just as General Terauchi Juichi was about to say something, his chief of staff hurried in and said, "Commander, Tianzhen County sent a telegram saying that the Chinese have also launched an attack. They have dispatched tanks. Our troops are unable to stop them. The city defenses have been breached."

Hearing the bad news that came at the same time without any particular order, General Terauchi Hisaichi seemed to be struck by lightning and just stood there in a daze.

"idiot!"

"what is this?"

"We've been preparing for months, spending nearly 10 million yen, and yet we can't even withstand a single day of attack from the Chinese?"

"I clearly had the advantage, so why did we fail?"

"When I came here this morning, I saw so much life, everything flourishing. How come it all went down so suddenly? Damn it!"

"I don't understand, I don't understand!!"

General Terauchi Hisaichi's mind was a little confused. He couldn't figure out what went wrong.

"Commander, this place is too dangerous. Please retreat first!"

Looking at the dazed General Terauchi Hisaichi, the Chief of Staff of the North China Front Army couldn't help but speak.

Yanggao County and Tianzhen County can be lost, and at most they will find more people to take the blame, but once Commander Terauchi Hisaichi dies here, none of them will be able to escape.

Hearing the Chief of Staff's words, General Terauchi Hisaichi also came to his senses. His expression was a little ferocious. He said, "Baga, order all troops to immediately defend on the spot and rely on advantageous terrain. We are going to fight the Chinese in street battles."

"Tell our warriors to be determined to die, it's time to pledge allegiance to the Empire of Japan and His Majesty the Emperor!" At this point, General Terauchi Hisaichi became so angry that he passed out.
