"What, Chinese?
Yo West, I didn’t expect the Chinese to actually send troops. They couldn’t even protect themselves, and Yaxing also sent troops to the Emerald Kingdom to help John Bull fight!
Yo West, finally a decent opponent has come. The three-legged Asan, the Jade Natives and the Australian Lobster who are like scumbags all day long are really no challenge. For the imperial army, a battlefield without opponents is lonely. "
The captain of the 112th Regiment, Hashimoto Ryujiro, pretended to be cool just right and won the admiring eyes of all the officers in the Regiment Headquarters;
Since landing on the southern continent, the 112th Regiment, under the leadership of Colonel Hashimoto, has conquered and won every battle. It has made those arrogant Westerners run away with their heads in their arms, and has established a god-of-war authority in the entire regiment.
The Western powers are no match for them, let alone the beggar-like straw-shoe army.
Major Jusanro Ono, senior staff officer of the regiment, sincerely praised:
"Your Excellency, Captain, I have seen from you the style of the God of War Oda Nobunaga during the Warring States Period. You are truly a blessing to the members of our 112th Regiment. I implore you to lead the warriors of the entire Regiment to the Bronze Ancient City and annihilate the Chinese in the city in one fell swoop. The elite division."
Colonel Takamoto nodded with satisfaction, and then ordered:
"Order the first brigade to attack Tonggu City. The main force will follow up. I heard that there are many Chinese flower girls in Tonggu City. They are beautiful and big, and they are not comparable to the monkey-like natives. Take the Tonggu City before dark and lift it. In one day of military discipline, I will have a carnival with you all in the ancient copper city!"
As soon as Colonel Takamoto finished speaking, the regiment headquarters cheered again, like a group of wild beasts howling.
Piyouhe, 200th Division defensive position
Li Guodong's regiment is working hard to repair the fortifications. He divided the troops into two parts. The 1st Company of the 598th Infantry Regiment relied on the position built by the British front army, backed by the bridge, as a forward position and also responsible for the task of luring the enemy;
The main force of the 1151st Regiment was ambushing in ambush positions on both sides of the Piyou River Bridge. Li Guodong was cruel and buried all the explosives on the bridge, preparing to surprise the Japanese.
The Second Regiment of the British Army, who was afraid of death, was not very good at fighting, but its fortifications were built to a pretty standard. Officer John Bull, who had experienced the brutal trench warfare in Europe during World War I, was more professional at repairing trench fortifications than the Chinese army;
The barbed wire fences and trenches all over the position excited the first company commander Yang Baozhong. He graduated from the Second Corps of the 16th batch of the Central Army Officers School. He graduated just over a year ago and is now a captain.
It wasn't because he was promoted quickly because of his outstanding military exploits, but because his previous company commander died quickly, half a year after graduation. He took over the company commander's seat not long after he became the platoon leader.
Huangpu has graduated tens of thousands of students so far. In addition to the first seven periods, which have caught up with the good times and are now in high positions, with much fewer casualties, the students in the following years must be lucky in addition to being able to fight. good.
Captain Yang was the lucky one because he survived one year.
"Brothers, before the Japs come, reinforce the position. You can save your life at this critical moment -"
"Chirp——"
As soon as the experienced Yang Yuzhong heard the sound of the artillery shell breaking through the sky, he knew that this was the Japanese 75mm mountain artillery shell, and shouted:
"The Japanese are coming! Anti-gun!"
After shouting, he rolled into the trench, almost chasing his ass. More than a dozen artillery shells fell into the position of the first company, and after the explosion, the sky was filled with dust.
Before the Japs arrived, the artillery arrived first, giving the first company a disarming blow.
"Damn it, the cannon was so accurate that it almost sent me back to my hometown!"
Captain Yang, who was lucky enough to escape the disaster, spat out a mouth full of sand and asked for his mother's greetings.
It's a pity that the Japanese didn't hear it because they were drowned by the continuous explosions.
Since the Japanese Army of the Southern Front annihilated nearly 100,000 John Bulls and captured a large amount of their equipment in the battle of Lion City, they had plenty of artillery shells for the war, as if they were free of charge.
This was very painful for the officers and soldiers of the company. They could only lie on the ground and silently bear the ravages of Japanese artillery fire. Those who were unlucky would be taken away by the artillery fire.
Suddenly a sharp whistle sounded on the position, which was the observer's warning whistle. Upon hearing this, Captain Yang immediately shouted loudly:
"Brothers, the Japanese infantry are coming up, let's go fuck them!"
As soon as Captain Yang got up from the trench, he saw a squadron of Japanese soldiers rushing up with guns in hand.
He made a preliminary estimate of the distance, and unknowingly he was within a hundred meters by the Japanese. This group of Japanese soldiers used infantry and artillery to coordinate their tactics very well.
"Brothers, fight!"
Following Captain Yang's order, the officers and soldiers of the First Company fired fiercely at the Japs. In an instant, there were more than a dozen of them. The other Japs fell to the ground and started shooting at the First Company;
The 55th Division was the second-class division of the Japanese. It was originally a four-regiment system. An infantry regiment was left behind when they went out from the mainland to form a new division. Therefore, only 3 infantrymen arrived on the southern battlefield. regiment, but also includes an artillery regiment, a baggage regiment, an engineering regiment, and an armored regiment rarely seen in China.
Equipped with 36 150 field guns and 40 tanks and armored vehicles, this is only the firepower of the division. The regiments and brigades also have dozens of 75mm mountain and field guns, more than 200 mortars, and a total strength of 20,259 people;
It can be said that the Japanese troops and firepower are far superior to the 200 Division that adheres to Tonggu, and they can also receive support from three aviation groups. The air supremacy is completely in the hands of the Japanese.
The Japs put in a squadron of Japs in the first round of exploratory attack. They were tenaciously blocked by a company. The two sides shot at a distance of tens of meters, causing casualties on each other.
Since the Japanese invested more troops than the first company, which put a lot of pressure on the company's defense, all the heavy firepower of the first company was exposed to the Japanese from the beginning.
Seeing that the fire reconnaissance effect had been achieved, the captain of the Japanese No. 1 Battalion ordered the field artillery brigade accompanying them to carry out precise attacks on the company's position after the attacking troops withdrew. In just a few minutes, one gun The Maxim heavy machine gun was blown up, and 2 light machine guns were also lost;
The heavy firepower of the company suffered heavy losses and suffered a big loss.
As soon as the Japs' artillery fire extended, six to seven hundred Japs, under the cover of several armored vehicles, attacked the company's position.
Captain Yang saw that there were hundreds of Japs, and the fish he caught this time was big and fat enough. A hunter-like smile appeared on his face, and he shouted loudly:
"Brothers, you can't stand it anymore, retreat!"
They fled towards the bridge in a panic. When the Japanese saw the Chinese people escaping, they screamed excitedly.
"Kill the chicken and give it to me!"
Led by armored vehicles, the Japanese army rushed towards the bridge. The one who ran to the front was an infantry team, which opened the way for the armored vehicles.
They fled in a very embarrassed manner, abandoning their helmets and armor. The Japanese did not pay attention to the Chinese people at all. The small group of Japanese soldiers marched straight in and quickly crossed the bridge.
Then, several armored vehicles and dozens of Japanese infantrymen also boarded the bridge. Captain Li Guodong saw that the fish was hooked and decisively ordered the detonation.
They used a Black Bear electromagnetic detonation bomb. After receiving the order, the demolition crew decisively pressed the detonator.
A huge explosion was heard, and the entire bridge was blown up. The four armored vehicles and dozens of accompanying infantrymen on the bridge all fell into the river...
"beat!"
Following Li Guodong's order, the guns and artillery in the ambush position fired wildly at the Japanese on the other side of the river, mowing down a large group of Japanese in an instant...
"There is an ambush on Bagaya Road!"
