The equipment of the National Salvation Army is very advanced. Chu Xiong knows that the individual quality of the soldiers of old divisions like the Fourth Division is very high. They are all old Japanese who have been trained for several years. They are very good at fighting grenades and infantry artillery. allow.
In the Battle of Siam, nearly 200,000 Japs were wiped out, and a large number of grenade launchers and infantry artillery were seized. In addition to being sold to other National Salvation Army units, the equipment given to the National Salvation Army was also quite arrogant;
They were equipped with machine guns and grenade launchers, and four infantry guns per group to make up for their lack of heavy firepower.
The grenade group of the Maori detachment fired very accurately. The Japanese machine guns on the opposite side only fired a few bursts before they were locked in. Two consecutive rounds of grenades sent them back to their hometown.
"Yoshi, kill the chicken and give it to me!"
Maori saw that he had lost the Japanese machine gun position and directed his detachment to continue the attack;
When they reached the location of the Japs' machine gun position, Maori saw that several Japs on the ground were still squirming. With a wave of his hand, two National Salvation Army soldiers rushed up with 38 caps and gave each of them a bayonet.
After confirming that all the Japanese were dead, they attacked another street.
In the battle just now, their team destroyed two Japanese machine guns, killed 9 Japanese soldiers, and suffered 4 casualties.
This is just a small-scale battle. Street fighting is a test for both sides. In the end, it will basically become a cruel war of attrition. The individual combat literacy of the soldiers on both sides is very high. In this regard, the National Salvation Army The advantage is obvious. With the 26th Division, which is mainly composed of reserves, we can basically achieve an exchange ratio of more than 2:1.
Gunshots were fired one after another in the city for a whole day. The two sides were already entangled, and it was not known who would win and who would lose;
After dark, Lieutenant General Sekihara sent the second regiment in again. With the addition of new troops, the gunfire in Nancheng District became more intense. This night was destined to be a sleepless night for them.
The commanders of the 26th Division, Lieutenant General Yamagata Suho and Lieutenant General Sekihara, were competing in the Nancheng District. Neither would give way to the other. Night battles and melees caused heavy casualties to both sides. It was up to them to see who could withstand it first.
The feint attack of the Second Division on the Eastern Front was much easier, more like soy sauce. Zhong Guoliang had already told the commander of the Second Division to be quiet during the attack and avoid the limelight of Lieutenant General Sekihara and the National Salvation Army.
The participation of the Sekiyuan Division in the war had a huge blow to the morale of the 26th Division. They called Sekiyuan and others Japanese traitors, and they hated them even more than the Chinese people, and wanted to peel off their skin and beat their muscles;
The same goes for the Sekigahara Division. They also need to survive, and they are fighting for their lives in order not to be demobilized. Their performance is not like the Osaka Division at all, but more like the Kumamoto Division.
They were very ruthless, killing all the wounded Japs without leaving a single one alive.
The 26th Division has a total strength of 18,000 people. In the previous bombing by aircraft and artillery, it suffered nearly 10,000 casualties. The remaining casualties including the lightly wounded were less than 13,000. In addition, there were about 1,000 seriously wounded. As many as 4,000 Japanese were killed in the bombing;
Such a casualty ratio would have collapsed long ago if it were a Western army, but in the East such casualties are bearable.
With these 13,000 men, the 26th Division fought fiercely for a day with the two regiments of the Sekihara Division, but the two sides still could not decide the winner.
In the headquarters of the 26th Division, Lieutenant General Shanxian, the commander of the division, looked sad and angry. They fought all day and night. Judging from the news that they were defeated in the city, their opponents were actually a group of people who had betrayed their ancestors.
"Bagaya Road, these Japanese traitors have completely disgraced His Majesty. They can't beat the Chinese. They beat our own people harder than anyone else. Their ancestors will be ashamed of them!"
Chief of Staff Colonel Makoto Okayama persuaded in a low voice:
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, please calm down. It's not worth it for these spineless people. The forest is big and there are all kinds of birds;
I heard that their commander was the former Lieutenant General Sekihara of the Fourth Division. His Majesty thought he was loyal to the country, so he specially reserved a very prominent position for him in the shrine and promoted him to the rank of general!
What would your Majesty think if he knew about this? The Fourth Division is unworthy of His Majesty's trust. They no longer deserve to be called footbath chickens. They are dogs of the Chinese people. "
Colonel Okayama's words simply added fuel to the fire, and Lieutenant General Yama Prefecture was so angry that he cursed:
"Bagaya Road, I must make them pay the price, and let everyone know that they have become dogs of the Chinese people and are helping the Chinese people to massacre our imperial warriors.
Quickly, generate electricity for the base camp, don't let them humiliate the warriors of all ages in the shrine! "
Lieutenant General Guanyuan did not know that Lieutenant General Shanxian was trying to harm him, but he was bent on wiping out the Japs in Nancheng District to show his loyalty to the Chinese people. Now he has no way out and can only go to the back.
The performance of the Guanyuan Division during the day was recognized by Zhong Guoliang. In order to reward them, they were given a late-night snack, each of them a can of luncheon meat produced by Yingjiang, which was all meat!
This made Guan Yuan a little flattered, and said that he would step up the offensive after dawn, capture Nancheng District in one fell swoop, and wipe out all the Japanese in the city.
The battle in the city lasted until early morning and ended. The battle had not yet decided a winner. Both sides were recharging their strength and waiting for daybreak to continue fighting.
That night, Lieutenant General Sekiyuan slept very soundly and had a very beautiful dream. He dreamed that he was returning home in glory and wanted people to bow down in front of him and lick his toes.
And he became the prime minister of the weaklings, inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people...
On this day, the National Salvation Army soldiers who had replenished a can of luncheon meat were in high spirits. Lieutenant General Sekihara also threw in the third regiment. Their strength exceeded the Japanese in the city, and the battle once again became fierce.
The chicken in the foot pot, the devil's palace, and the lustful roar were like the Great Kanto Earthquake. Lieutenant General Yamagata's call made him furious, and the first-class soldier Tojo shivered in fear.
“Bagaya Road, this bastard in the temple has a very bad conscience!
If it hadn't been for the call from Mr. Shanxian, I wouldn't have known that the Chinese had landed in Luzon!
Does he still have me in his eyes?
waste! Why did Mr. Terauchi give birth to such a second-generation son? The empire has been completely disgraced by him!
Hundreds of thousands of elite troops were defeated steadily by hundreds of thousands of expeditionary troops;
The jade is lost! Siam is lost! Annan is lost! ! Now it’s the turn of Luzon and Johor. "
"Bagaya Road, Guan Yuan, this trash, bastard, he actually took refuge with the Chinese people, worked as a dog for the Chinese people, and helped the Chinese people bite me!
I must make them pay the price. Now that the country is in crisis, this head cannot be opened;
Tojo-kun, go tell my subjects and my loyal and brave warriors what good deeds this bastard Sekigahara and those cowards of the Fourth Division have done! "
After Yujin finished speaking, a devouring light burst out from Yujin's eyes, and a monstrous murderous aura erupted from his body. The frightened upper class soldier Tojo did not dare to say a word of love for Sekigahara and others.
At this time, fellow Taoist is dead, but poor Taoist is not dead!
It is said that good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles. Lieutenant General Sekihara and the Fourth Division surrendered to the Chinese and helped the Chinese attack Jianpanji, leading to the defeat of the Southern Army. The news soon spread throughout the city, and the more it spread, the more evil it became;
The locals were defeated one after another, and the people's anger was suppressed. Yuren also felt it. It happened that something happened with Sekigahara and the Fourth Division. He cleverly diverted the trouble to the east, and under the guidance of thoughtful people, he took the responsibility for the failure. It was all blamed on the rebellion of the Fourth Division.
The people of Takumiji were completely angry. After an afternoon of fermentation, the people's anger completely broke out. They rushed into the home of Sekihara and others with samurai swords raised high, and chopped down everyone they saw!
First, they killed all the families of Sekigahara and several regiment captains. After the people tasted the blood, they could no longer control it. They then rushed into the homes of middle- and low-level officers and soldiers, and the entire Osaka was filled with blood...
Naturally, such a big thing could not be hidden from the eyes of the Chinese secret agents. The first one to know about it was the Tsing Yi Club. They had nails all over their feet;
Qingyi Club knew about it, Yanzhou also knew about it, and soon Chu Xiong also knew about it.
On the fourth day of the street fighting in Marilla, the street fighting in Nancheng District had reached a fever pitch. Guan Yuan was considering involving the Fourth Wing, and Zhong Guoliang sent someone to notify him.
After arriving at the headquarters, Lieutenant General Guanyuan felt uneasy. After three days of street fighting in Nancheng District, he had not yet won the victory. He was worried that Zhong Guoliang had lost his patience.
When he walked into the headquarters, he felt cold when he saw Zhong Guoliang's face, and he began to regret not investing the Fourth Wing earlier.
"Lieutenant General Sekihara, I want to tell you some sad news. You want to express your condolences..."
