A convoy towing 105mm artillery guns drove out of the Shadow Regiment.
Zhang Erpao was sitting in the car, excited and excited.
Before he became a bandit, he served as the artillery squad leader in the artillery department of Baoding Military Academy.
Since the last time he pulled eight field guns to bomb the Angang River position, he felt like he hadn't touched a cannon for a long time.
Just now.
Ye Anran added five field guns and 1,000 rounds of artillery shells to his artillery battalion!
This increased his artillery battalion from eight field guns to thirteen.
You know, his former teaching director Lei Suisheng and artillery brigade commander only had 15 field guns before!
After the artillery brigade set off, Sun Maotian's infantry battalion and Li Yukui's cavalry battalion were also preparing to leave for Wuxing.
Sun Maotian is waiting for the logistics support troops to load supplies.
He looked at the mask with a glass cover and looked at Ye Anran in confusion.
"Captain, what's the point of bringing this thing with us?"
Ye Anran: "That thing is called a gas mask. Just wear it. Don't ask about the rest."
"yes!"
Sun Maotian didn't ask any more questions. He saluted Ye Anran and Ma Jinhai and then broke camp and left the Shadow Regiment's station.
It's four o'clock in the morning and it's still dark.
All telephone lines of the communications support force were connected.
The wires and radios of the signal corps were used to conduct communication tests to the forward command.
Ma Jinshan's forward headquarters is set up at Ang'ang Creek, together with the 3rd and 2nd independent brigades of the 101st Division stationed at Ang'ang Creek.
Five o'clock in the morning.
The 102nd Division and the 103rd Division arrived at the battle position and pretended to be on standby.
At half past five, the shadow regiment's infantry and cavalry battalions arrived in Wuxing, and the artillery battalion quickly deployed artillery positions at Duonai Station.
The 9th mixed infantry company was in position along with it.
nine in the morning.
Apart from the guards maintaining public security and the logistics support troops on standby transporting ammunition through traffic trenches, Hecheng City was like an empty city.
Residents walked the streets and looked at soldiers running with ammunition boxes on their shoulders.
An indescribable feeling of tension arose spontaneously.
In the Dazhong Daily office, Wang Qingguan opened the door.
An hour ago, he received a call from Ma Jinshan. The last three press releases from Dazhong Daily were to be released.
"Ma Jinshan leads the frontline soldiers to inform the whole country of electrification!"
"Tell the residents of Hecheng to get electricity!"
"Send power to the three eastern provinces!"
He gave the reporters and editors who were present a day off.
Everyone is asked to stay away from the center of Hecheng City!
Xia Qiancheng looked out the window at the soldiers walking in the traffic trench. She waited until Wang Qinghai finished his breakup meeting, and then trotted all the way to the provincial capital.
She was stopped by guards in front of the provincial capital gate.
"I'm sorry, ma'am, the whole city is under martial law. Please go home immediately!"
"I, I would like to ask, where can I meet Vice Chairman Ye?"
Xia Qiancheng held a pair of cloth shoes behind her back and looked at the empty provincial capital building.
Oh my God!
There were tens of thousands of them, but there was no sound when they left.
Guard: "I'm sorry, ma'am, Crane City is currently under wartime management, so I have no comment!"
Xia Qiancheng took a step back nervously.
She bowed deeply to the guard.
The guard gave her a military salute.
Xia Qiancheng's eyes were moist. She held her shoes in her arms and jogged towards Dongxing Hospital.
Before becoming a reporter, Xia Qiancheng studied medicine.
War needs soldiers to guard the territory, and it also needs doctors.
She is going to the front line!
Zhao Fangyu of Dongxing Hospital received a notice that all field doctors trained in his hospital have returned to the team!
At the same time, Dongxing Hospital was temporarily changed to Hecheng Rear Field Hospital.
All doctors and nurses are not allowed to take vacation.
Doctors and nurses who are on vacation will be recalled!
During this period of urgent shortage of medical personnel, Xia Qiancheng found Zhao Fangyu and expressed his determination to join the field medical rescue team.
Zhao Fangyu readily agreed.
What he lacks most now is people who understand medical technology.
Almost at the same time.
The security forces in the Tohoku Army City controlled Minako Minako, president of the Tsurujo Co., Ltd., and Taro Watanabe of the Fukubon Labor Union.
In accordance with the Northeast Army's wartime confidentiality regulations, all foreign companies except Guangchuan Automobile Factory, Arsenal, and Jingang Steel Group have entered a state of control.
15th Regiment Prisoner of War Camp.
Kawami Yoshiko held the big iron gate with one hand, and she looked out the window eagerly at the flowing troops.
hehe!
The locust army is coming to save her!
Ye Anran! !
I must use your head to pay tribute to the locust army who died on the Chinese battlefield! !
Noon on April 14th.
Ma Jinshan once again received a call from the Kwantung Army's headquarters, Shige Shige.
On the phone, Honjo Shige asked him when he would set off.
Ma Jinshan said he would set off soon!
Then he hung up the phone.
At the same time, Ye Anran was in Wuxing and also received a call from the leader of the Utsunomiya Division, Fu Liang Suzuki.
Ye Anran said the same thing as Ma Jinshan, saying he would leave soon.
Taonan.
At the base camp of the Utsunomiya Division, Domon Ergo and Suzuki Furayaki are ready to set off.
They received orders from Tianhuang to arrive in Xinjing in advance and hold a joint meeting to occupy Hecheng and expel Ma Jinshan.
"General Suzuki, what if Ma Jinshan refuses to attend the founding ceremony of Xinjing?"
Duomen Ergou got into the car and he had a fight with Ma Jinshan.
In his eyes, Ma Jinshan was very cunning and a rare war wizard.
If such a person could be brought under his command, it would definitely be much better for the Locust Army than reusing that piece of trash like Zhang Peng.
Fuyaki Suzuki got into the car.
There was murderous intent in his eyes, "Whether he goes to Xinjing or not, the result will be the same, he will die!"
"If this kind of person is alive, he will always be a hidden danger to the Locust Army!"
"General Suzuki is right!"
"Our army has stationed 100,000 troops to deal with the 16,000 people in Ma Jinshan. I really think highly of him."
"Hahaha!"
…
"drive!"
At Suzuki's request, the driver started the car and drove towards Xinjing.
Their convoy left under the front and rear cover of armored vehicles and infantry transport vehicles and headed straight for Xinjing.
Xinjing.
The servant wanted to wear a yellow robe and then ascend the throne in front of everyone.
However, this reason was rejected by the Japanese.
The Japanese asked him to wear the commander's uniform and ascend the throne. The servants were very unhappy about this.
The commanders of the Kwantung Army, Honjo Shige and Doihara, were staying in a lounge.
They had a heated discussion about whether Ma Jinshan would go to Xinjing to participate in the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China.
Doihara: "Commander, I can't keep Ma Jinshan, let alone Ye Anran beside him."
"If he comes to Xinjing this time, I will cause an accident and let him die quietly!"
"In this case, it won't cause large-scale panic!"
Doi was originally the head of the secret service, and he was a master at causing accidental deaths.
Now his mind is filled with scenes of Ye Anran scolding him.
Even before he met Ye Anran, he already wanted to kill Ye Anran.
Honjo Shige smiled, "Hehe", "It seems that Director Doihara has a strong opinion on Ye Anran!"
"Commander, you haven't heard what Ye Anran's grandson said. It's really annoying!"
"Okay, if they can really surrender to the Locust Army, it won't be a bad thing for us!"
"Hai!"
"If they don't surrender to Tianhuang, then we can only send them to see the Buddha!"
"Hai!"
Honjo Shige looked at the map and called the combat staff.
"Where is the 6th Brigade now?"
"General, the 6th Brigade is still gathering and is expected to land at Ben Thanh Port within seven days."
"knew."
Honjo Shige continuously transferred Neon's domestic troops to the three eastern provinces.
He not only wants to occupy the three eastern provinces, but also consolidate the position of the Locust Army in the three eastern provinces.
3pm.
Tailai County.
Taosuo Security Army Headquarters.
The agent stood in front of Zhang Peng, "Commander, I always feel like something is wrong!"
"None of our spies who went out pretending to be ordinary people came back!"
Zhang Peng: "Don't worry."
"The time has come for the Locust Army to defy heaven and change its destiny."
"He won't be able to gallop around the mountains for a few days."
"How many flies have you seen that can live until winter? Ma Jinshan is that fly. Behind us is the field artillery unit of the Utsunomiya Division Commander."
"The nearby 20 to 30 kilometers are within his range."
"Even those flies in Hecheng don't need me to take action!"
"Commander, otherwise I would have to hang out with you! Transparent!"
Midnight, midnight.
The forward position of the Shadow Regiment.
Ye Anran and the brothers from Li Yukui's cavalry battalion slept all day.
At this time of night, they are more energetic than night owls!
The cavalry battalion put on the uniforms of the Taosuo Security Army and stood by in the trenches.
In addition to sabers, each of them is equipped with a trench assault artifact, a butter submachine gun.
Ye Anran called Li Yukui and explained the combat mission.
Tonight, he was going to pull out the artillery wing of the Utsunomiya Division.
After handing over the task, Ye Anran climbed on his horse and took advantage of the darkness to bypass the Taosuo security forces stationed in Tailai County and went straight to Jiejie.
Three o'clock in the morning.
The cavalry battalion arrived near Dongping.
The Japanese camped on the streets of Dongping, and most of their infantry artillery was not deployed.
Obviously, this force did not intend to stay in Dongping for a long time.
As an artillery unit, in order to avoid being saturated by enemy artillery at any time, they need to finish firing a shot and change places.
The goal of the 20th Regiment of the Utsunomiya Division Field Artillery was to attack the city.
In front of them, in Tailai County, there was the cannon fodder regiment Taosuo Border Security Force.
Behind is the 14th Regiment of Heavy Troops.
The vigilance of these Japanese soldiers was very lax, and it was three o'clock in the morning, which was the sleepiest time of the day.
Ye Anran was carrying a saber. In order to prevent the horses from making noise, he put muzzles on all the horses in advance.
The brothers in the cavalry battalion were extremely excited.
They haven't killed Japanese soldiers for a long time.
This kind of work that should be done by infantry is done by cavalry. How exciting!
Ye Anran pointed at the Japs on guard in front. They quietly touched them, covered the Japs sentry's mouths, and cut their necks with sabers!
Soon, they eliminated the sentries on guard outside the Japanese tent.
The Japanese did not set up high-altitude reconnaissance posts.
There are no searchlight posts either.
This was a good thing for the cavalry battalion's operations.
Of course, it is also a nightmare for the 20th Regiment of the Japanese Artillery.
The soldiers of the cavalry battalion quietly walked into the Japanese tent. The sabers in their hands were like death's scythes, harvesting the lives of the Japanese.
Five o'clock in the morning.
The 20th Regiment of the Utsunomiya Division Field Artillery was completely wiped out.
There was silence.
Ye Anran placed a grenade with the safety pin pulled out in the Japanese shell box.
In each shell box, grenades were placed in the cargo compartment where the shells were loaded.
Its sensitivity is very high. It is possible that the vehicle will catch fire or even a slight vibration of the car will cause an explosion.
At dawn, Ye Anran led the cavalry battalion, bypassing Tailai and returning to the Wuxing position.
The brothers who had been busy for half the night took off their puppet army uniforms and began to close their eyes to rest and sleep.
