Feng....Three kilometers west of Tianyi, there is a relatively deep trench.

But many staff officers were busy, and Lin Tianchen used the visual map to perfect the deployment of Shengjing troops one by one.

At this time, a figure walked in from outside.

"Commander." Zhuzi's face was very serious, and he obviously knew the importance of this battle.

"How is the artillery position constructed?" Lin Tianchen asked straight to the point as he watched Yu Chengzhu coming.

"Be ready and await orders from the brigade commander at any time."

"In this battle, there are many places that require precise artillery fire. Not only Fengtianyi, but also many places in Shengjing that you need to keep an eye on. For example, in Fengtianyi, areas 044 and 045 must be fired at the same time." Lin Tianchen's tone was very serious, and he pointed at the map as he spoke:

"Also, in Shengjing City, area 065 could be a Japanese barracks. We must cover it. This area is their arsenal. If we bombard it and cause a secondary explosion, it will be perfect."

Although Lin Tianchen wanted to seize the supplies in the arsenal, the battle in Shengjing might not be easy. At least they could not threaten the location of the arsenal in a short time.

So, instead of becoming an ally of the enemy, it is better to just set off some big fireworks.

Lin Tianchen's tone did not hesitate at all. He paused slightly and spoke again:

"These punctuation marks mark the time. You must bomb these places according to the timeline. You need to cooperate with the special operations company..." Lin Tianchen then took out a map from the side.

He explained to Zhuzi in detail some important bombardment points, arranging them in clear order.

What is most needed now is to capture the Fengtian...Post Station train. Once the train station is captured, his headquarters will move forward and be located at Fengtian...Post Station. At that time, the location of the headquarters will cover the entire Shengjing and the location behind it.

"clear."

Zhuzi, who was standing by, had been following Lin Tianchen for a while. He listened attentively and wrote down the things he couldn't remember in his notebook. After all, the accuracy of the bombardment not only affected the offensive, but also caused accidental injuries.

"In one hour, you will start the battle first." Lin Tianchen solemnly handed a map to Zhuzi. He brought the 1st Regiment, the 2nd Regiment, the New 2nd Regiment, and the Artillery Regiment to such a close position. Naturally, the Artillery Regiment would launch the attack first.

This is the only way to maximize the advantage in the battle. Once the pillar's artillery fires, it will be the clarion call for all troops to charge.

"Brigade Commander, let's not talk about the artillery regiment, but as long as we have the punctuation marks on the map, we can definitely clear it out." Zhuzi's face was very serious. He responded seriously and then left quickly.

There was only one hour, which meant he didn't have much time left.

Lin Tianchen watched Zhuzi leave and couldn't help but glance at the letter at hand.

The war has been going on for three months, and a letter from home is worth a thousand pieces of gold.

Lin Tianchen understood how the ancients' poetic descriptions of these things touched people's hearts.

Feng Jianhai was alone in Shengjing, but he never gave up hope in his heart.

Feng Jianhai, who was lurking in Shengjing, was of great help to them. The Dark Tiger who obtained so much intelligence really gave their Tiger Brigade an extra eye. If it were not for the news sent back by the Dark Tiger, he really would not have thought that the Japanese would actually land from the sea.

But now, the unknown news of life and death is heavy and exciting for Lin Tianchen.

I hope Feng Jianhai is still alive in Shengjing and that our agreement can be fulfilled.

But now, Lin Tianchen withdrew his thoughts and his eyes became extremely determined.

"Fang Bailu."

"exist!"

"Telegraph to the Independent Regiment: When you meet the 3rd and 714th Regiments, the three regiments must reach the south of Dingbei County within three hours. The New 1st Regiment and the 35th Division must reach the south of Shengjing in two hours. Once they arrive, launch an attack."

Lin Tianchen's eyes were full of murderous intent. The 3rd Regiment and the 714th Regiment were breaking out, but they were not completely out of danger yet. After all, they had just left Jincheng. The Japanese reacted quickly and kept attacking the two troops.

In the process of breaking out to the east, which was the direction with the least troops, they still encountered considerable resistance.

"Yes."

............

...

The position of the artillery regiment of the Huben Brigade.

A white circle gradually rises in the eastern sky.

They were lined up in a row, separated by some distance, and covered with white coarse cloth. Under the white coarse cloth, some soldiers were warming up the cannons.

The first thing Zhuzi saw when he returned was a group of people who had been waiting here for a long time.

"Captain."

"Captain."

"All gunners, gather here quickly. I will assign tasks."

Zhuzi waved his hand, signaling everyone to take their positions, and in front of a cannon, he pulled out several maps from his arms.

"The current attack order for the entire brigade is for our artillery regiment to fire. This battle is very stressful. We are facing an enemy several times our number, and Jincheng may even send reinforcements. Accuracy must be impeccable, so we must inflict the greatest casualties on the Japanese in the shortest possible time and eliminate the main firepower points! The telephone lines to the artillery positions of each unit must not be disconnected. Do you understand?"

Zhuzi said this in a serious voice, glancing at the commanders of the various regiments in front of him.

As the words fell, a low voice was heard.

"understand!"

"understand!"

The soldiers of the entire artillery regiment responded in low voices, and the combination of these voices sounded like the low cry of a wandering dragon.

"First Battalion, you are responsible for areas 044 and 045. Attack both locations simultaneously."

"Third Battalion, Area 067, you are responsible."

"The bombardment of Shengjing will be postponed for half an hour. Please make sure to time it well to coordinate with the Special Operations Company's attack."

Zhuzi spoke one sentence after another, his eyes full of seriousness, while each artillery commander was recording.

As tasks were issued one after another, the gunners left the pillars one by one, quickly returned to the artillery area they were responsible for, and began to adjust the muzzles.

Zhuzi also helped coordinate some of the gun muzzle angles. This busyness did not last too long. After all, these were the gunners he had carefully trained.

Then came a long wait, waiting second by second. Taking out the pocket watch, Zhuzi watched the movement of the pointer intently.

As time got closer to the agreed time, Zhuzi became more and more excited and slowly raised his hand high.

Along with the ticking sound of the pointer, the raised hand was seen by everyone. The soldiers of the entire artillery had serious expressions and performed their duties. Long-term training made them proficient in every movement.

As the pointer jumped, the pillar suddenly roared.

"fire!!!"

Inside the artillery position, in the silent night, this sound instantly spread across the entire back of the hill, followed by a series of dull roars.

Violent artillery sounds rang out, and the snow on the gun barrels fell off. Before the snowflakes fell, flames shot up into the sky, and beams of artillery fire imprinted the entire mountaintop.

The huge explosion sounded like a dragon's roar, and the whistling sound drowned out the sound of the north wind. At this moment, the sound between heaven and earth was heard.

From a distance, the sound was no different from the beat of drums. The shells arced eastward and disappeared into the snow.

As soon as one shell was fired, another one came in an instant. At this moment, the entire artillery regiment was pouring artillery fire on the troops in front.

............

......

Shengjing.

It is a Western-style building with white porcelain floor tiles. There are also many corresponding sculptures placed on both sides of the gate and around the snow-covered fountain in front.

The overall layout is high-end and grand, and it is obvious that it was built only a few years ago. The architectural style tends to be island-like.

Although it was late at night, the lights were on and the stoves in the four corners were burning brightly, providing warmth. The temperature difference between inside and outside caused some frost to form on the windows.

At this time, the atmosphere in the entire combat command room was completely different from before.

Telegraph operators were walking back and forth, and some staff officers had smiles on their faces all the time. Even at this time, many people were talking and laughing happily.

"If the Chinese break out to the east, won't that put them in a dead end? Our troops in Shengjing haven't been mobilized yet."

"There's no need to wait until tomorrow. We can capture Jincheng now and target the Tiger Brigade. We'll definitely annihilate them. They're already at the end of their rope."

Some Japanese soldiers were chatting there, and the lights shone on their faces. The smiles on their faces were perfunctory, real, and flattering.

However, the fact that Jincheng was taken back did make many people feel a little relieved.

Sitting in a corner of the command room, Yuta Kishibe looked at this scene and felt inexplicably familiar. The feeling was very subtle, but for a moment he didn't know what was so subtle about it.

Especially when Yuta Kishibe looked at the people surrounded by him, looking at the map and "showing off his power", it seemed like his former self.

After a brief hesitation, Kishibe Yuta still approached Tanii Mijiro. After all, the other party had appreciated him again.

"Sir, it is too easy to take Jincheng. Huben, you must be planning something." Kishibe Yuta expressed his doubts.

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere around them became quiet, but then many people began to refute them.

"Too simple? Over 30,000 soldiers perished, and that's still too simple?"

"Your lack of respect for the Imperial soldiers alone is enough to keep you at most the General Director of the Jin Region. And the reason you're at the helm of the Kwantung Army... could it be that the Tiger Brigade is planning to attack us again..."

Kudo Sanbon had a smile on his face, but that smile was full of sarcasm.

This statement was agreed upon by all the Japanese in the combat command room.

Even Mijiro Tani had a faint smile on his face after hearing this.

"He speaks with some elegance." Mijiro Tani muttered to himself.

Apart from anything else, Mijiro Tani still recognized Kudo Sanbon as his right-hand man.

After being confronted by Kudo Sanbon, Kishibe Yuta remained silent.

"Okay, the most important goal now is to annihilate the Tiger Brigade..." Mijiro Tani, the highest-ranking official, was trying to balance the atmosphere.

But before he could finish his words, there was a sudden loud noise, which made him stunned for a moment.

"Enemy attack!!"

"Enemy attack! Cover your retreat!"

"retreat!"

A voice came from the command room, but it was still covered by the sound of artillery explosions.

boom!

A mortar shell landed directly in the right lobby of the headquarters.

The rubble was scattered everywhere, the charcoal in the stove splashed everywhere, and a raging fire broke out in an instant. Many Japanese soldiers didn't know what was happening, but there was a lot of panic on their faces.

"The Tiger... The Tiger Brigade has arrived... They are really going to attack Shengjing..."

The one who reacted the fastest was Yuta Kishibe. At the moment the shell fell, he suddenly felt a sense of familiarity. Wasn't this the sudden attack he faced in Ping'an County?

The familiar scenes of artillery attacks in Ping'an County became the loud sounds that he was most afraid of after he escaped from Ping'an County.

Sometimes he would be awakened by the sound of footsteps.

But now, the Tiger Brigade is here again.

At this moment, Mijiro Tani's face looked extremely ugly. He quickly walked to the window and looked into the distance. Bursts of flames lit up from a distance.

"They attacked Fengtian Railway Station again..." Mijiro Tani said gritting his teeth.

Including this time, the Tiger Guards attacked Fengtianyi three times, and this time they directly bombarded Shengjing.

In the first battle with the Huben Brigade at Guiyang Mountain, they thought they could defeat the Huben Brigade, but in the end 30,000 Kwantung troops died at Guiyang Mountain.

In the battle of Changling Mountain, he thought his strategy was flawless and could wipe out a regiment of the Tiger Brigade, but in the end his own Guanjiu Division was completely wiped out.

After one defeat after another, the Tiger Brigade suddenly went beyond his expectations and chose to attack Shengjing directly, which made Mijiro Tani tremble.

Think about the Tiger Guards' northern expedition... 30,000 troops at Guiyang Mountain, the complete annihilation of Guan Jiu's division at the Battle of Changling Mountain, and this time at Pingtuo Mountain and Jincheng...

After Mijiro Tani made this calculation, he was filled with disbelief. The 700,000 Kwantung Army had suffered nearly 100,000 casualties without realizing it. Even if there were still wounded soldiers among them, they could not be deployed to the battlefield in a short time.

Moreover, the winter offensive launched by the Tiger Brigade was originally restricted in many ways. He tried his best to take the initiative into his own hands. However, the Tiger Brigade's three attacks on Fengtianyi made him very clear that this was the Tiger Brigade's response strategy.

And next to Fengtianyi is Shengjing, which means that Lin Tianchen’s destination is most likely Shengjing.

The continuous artillery fire and the loud noises from time to time made Mijiro Tani look very ugly. He watched a figure quickly enter with a document in his hand.

The person who came in took a quick look and finally set his eyes on Kudo Sanbon. His eyes lit up instantly and he ran towards him immediately.

Kudo Sanben looked at the person walking towards him and his face turned ugly instantly. The same look was also on Mijiro Tanii.

Bad news again... Mijiro Tani muttered to himself. Now he wanted to slap anyone he saw and hit anything he saw.
