Chapter 1028 The offensive of the Northeast Field Army
After the decisive defeat in the decisive battle on the Chinese battlefield, the Japanese military government headed by Tojo Hideki put all its sights and hopes on the Pacific battlefield where it had high hopes and was related to the fate of the entire Japanese nation.
However, even so, as China, Japan's only rival in Asia, even if the Japanese government completely withdraws from the Chinese battlefield due to failure, it has not given up its penetration of Chinese intelligence. In addition, some of the remaining foundations of the Japanese intelligence department have been left over from the war of aggression against China over the past few years.
, the entire Japanese intelligence network covers almost half of China.
Shanghai, as the only metropolis in Asia, and with a large number of foreigners living in the city, the intelligence power deployed by the Japanese here can be said to be the strongest in all of China.
A large number of American ships have joined the Chinese Navy, and countless American aircraft, artillery, and tanks have been continuously shipped out of the Shanghai Navy Port to refit the hundreds of thousands of Chinese Expeditionary Forces outside the city. I originally dismissed the Chinese Expeditionary Forces' cross-sea combat capabilities.
The Japanese intelligence officers who thought this was simply a delusion soon discovered that the whole thing was beyond their imagination.
Ever since, one piece of information after another, like snowflakes, was sent to the Japanese Intelligence Department.
At the same moment, the Northeast Field Army led by Commander-in-Chief Liu Bocheng had completed its assembly in accordance with the orders of the Military Commission. A total of three combat corps and an army of 300,000 people were quietly lurking on the west bank of the Yalu River like tigers ready to attack.
Because the Northeast Field Army has the advantage of Fengtian Arsenal, the proportion of large-caliber artillery, light and heavy machine guns, and even tanks among the 500,000-strong army is the highest among all armies in the country. The 300,000-strong army has the highest proportion of equipment.
The West Road Assault Corps, under the personal command of Mr. Liu, assembled a total of 1,500 artillery pieces, large and small, aimed at the Japanese defense positions on the east bank of the Yalu River.
At the temporary headquarters of the Northeast Field Army, Mr. Liu was standing in front of the huge combat sand table with an expectant look on his face, listening to the final report from the combat staff.
"Commander-in-Chief, according to the order, six heavy howitzer regiments, three heavy cannon regiments, nine light howitzer regiments, 12 field artillery regiments, two rocket launcher regiments, plus the mountain artillery units directly under each ministry, totaling 1,500
All the remaining artillery pieces have entered the position and are ready for battle." The combat staff responsible for contacting the artillery unit reported with excitement and expectation. After all, the cluster firing of more than 1,500 artillery pieces is the most important thing for the Chinese government.
Something that has never happened since the team was founded.
"Where is the Air Force? How is the Air Force prepared?" Mr. Liu nodded, his eyes never leaving the combat sandbox in front of him, and continued to ask.
"The aviation division assigned to us by the central government, including two fighter regiments and a bomber regiment, are also on standby and can take off for combat at any time." The air force liaison staff said immediately.
"Is there any movement from the kid opposite?" Mr. Liu continued to ask.
"Because the enemy and our armies on both sides of the Yalu River have always been in a state of combat readiness. In addition, various deployments of our army are carried out at night. Therefore, the entire combat plan has not been leaked. According to the report of the special operations team members who lurked in the past. The little devil
The defense force deployed opposite us is still one division after another, totaling 40,000 people, and there is no change..." the intelligence staff reported.
"The special operations division did a good job. It seems that in this operation, the contribution of our special operations division cannot be erased. Not only did they obtain the Japanese army's defense map along the river, they also acted as the eyes of our artillery group... Forty thousand Japanese troops,
Tonight, we will eat all the 40,000 Japanese troops without leaving a single bite, as an appetizer for our complete annihilation of the Japanese troops in Korea..." Mr. Liu, who already knew himself and the enemy, sighed with excitement.
Immediately, a look of seriousness and anticipation before the battle appeared on his face. He gave a very decisive order to the waiting combat staff in front of him.
"Order: All artillery groups of the entire army shall launch artillery bombardment on time at the scheduled shooting target at one o'clock in the morning. All assault troops shall be prepared to seize the beach and land..."
"Yes, Commander-in-Chief..."
An hour of waiting passed by in a blink of an eye. More than a thousand artillery shells of various calibers were stuffed into the black hole of the artillery barrel at almost the same time. At the same time, a famous gunner was also ready to fire...
"Artillery position No. 1 is ready... Artillery position No. 2 is ready..."
"Order, all artillery positions, fire immediately... fire..."
“Rumble…”
Just as the order from the headquarters was issued, a series of deafening roars sounded from the artillery position behind the headquarters. More than 1,500 artillery shells and rockets of various calibers were fired like one after another, with huge roars.
Sound, flying towards the Japanese positions on the other side of the Yalu River...
"Boom, boom, boom..." In less than ten seconds, a thunderous explosion of artillery shells came from the other side of the Yalu River. At the same time, under the reflection of the orange-red fireballs, the Japanese defense positions on the other side of the river were
The sky above was also dyed red in an instant...
The defense line along the river was instantly shrouded in dense and fierce artillery fire. Each bunker, like a toy, was torn into pieces in an instant in front of the large-caliber artillery shells that looked like eyes. Each Japanese machine gun position was shattered by the explosion of the artillery shells.
In the middle, even the man and the gun were lifted into the sky in an instant, leaving behind a pile of machine gun parts and the broken limbs of the little devil...
Just as tens of thousands of elite Japanese troops were being ravaged by more than a thousand artillery pieces along the entire defense line, the headquarters of the Japanese defense line along the river, located a few kilometers away, also became chaotic due to the sudden attack.
"Baga, haven't we contacted you yet? What do the communication soldiers do? Use the transmitter. Use the transmitter to contact you immediately. I want to communicate with the forward position as soon as possible. Hurry..." The Japanese commander said to a group of people.
The panicked subordinates roared loudly...
A few minutes later, while the commander was waiting anxiously, a voice of surprise finally sounded in the headquarters.
"Your Excellency, Commander, I have contacted...the telegram for reinforcements just sent from the front...The entire forward position is being attacked by at least a thousand large-caliber artillery pieces of the Chinese Army. The troops have suffered heavy losses, and we are requesting reinforcements..."
"Nani... A thousand large-caliber artillery pieces, Baga, what does the intelligence department do? Such a large-scale artillery group of the Chinese Army has not found anything... Quickly, order the reserve team to set off immediately.
The front line. No matter what, we must block the offensive of the Chinese *** team, and we must not let them cross the Yalu River smoothly..." The commander with a look of astonishment roared loudly.
"Hayi..."
"You, immediately report the news that our squadron has launched a sudden attack and our army has suffered heavy losses to the North Korean Governor-General's Office, requesting tactical guidance as soon as possible..." The commander, who was still not at ease, continued to order.
In Tokyo, Japan, as various resources in the country become increasingly scarce, the entire streets of Tokyo, except for the dim lights of the arsenal that still makes the roar of machines, have long been shrouded in darkness.
And on this dark street, Tojo Hideki's car, like a sharp sword lifted from a string, quickly drove towards the general staff headquarters, which was already in chaos.
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, you are here..." As soon as the car stopped, the deputy chief of staff with the rank of lieutenant general on his shoulders opened the door anxiously and said earnestly...
"Hmm... Let's talk after we go in..." Tojo Hideki nodded and walked directly into the staff headquarters...
Quickly walking into the chaotic war room, where the atmosphere became increasingly solemn, Tojo Hideki asked straightforwardly.
"Let's talk about the specific situation first, one by one..."
"Ha Yi... This is the General Staff Headquarters that has just received a telegram from the North Korean Governor-General's Office asking for help. At one o'clock in the morning, the Chinese Army, which assembled at least a thousand large-caliber artillery pieces, suddenly launched a violent bombardment on our defense line along the river. By the time we arrived,
So far, the shelling is still continuing. Because the offensive of the Chinese ** Team has not officially started, the North Korean Governor-General’s Office does not know the specific troop strength of the Chinese ** Team. However, according to the latest battle report received by the Governor-General’s Office,
Under the unprecedented artillery attack of the Chinese ** team, more than half of our defense line along the river has been lost, and the entire defense line along the river has been completely destroyed under such a fierce attack. According to the current situation, the entire defense line can only last for one day at most.
Time. And in one day, my troops stationed in the interior of North Korea cannot reach the battlefield at all..." The deputy chief of staff of the lieutenant general said with a solemn face.
"That is to say, tonight, the Chinese ** team will definitely break through our army's Yalu River defense line, and the troops will go directly deep into North Korea..." Tojo Hideki, who was a soldier, certainly knew the content hidden behind this telegram, with a solemn expression on his face.
asked rhetorically.
"Ha Yi..." The deputy chief of staff of the lieutenant general replied directly and affirmatively without hesitation.
"Baga, the cunning Chinese really know how to take advantage of the situation. They actually took advantage of the favorable opportunity when our Empire of Japan was preparing for the Pacific War and had no time to look eastward to attack us...bastard..." Tojo Hideki held on tightly.
He raised his fist and cursed loudly.
However, anger cannot solve the problem. In less than a minute, a solemn look replaced the anger on his face, and he asked directly to the lieutenant general and deputy chief of staff in front of him.
"With the strength of the North Korean garrison, can it stop the offensive of the Chinese army and keep our last colony in Asia? It must be clear that most of the domestic resources now come from North Korea. If North Korea also loses it, then we will
The Empire of Japan will completely lose its source of resources..."
"It's very difficult... The total strength of the entire North Korean garrison is less than 200,000, and more than two-thirds of them are new recruits. Coupled with the losses along the Yalu River, during the battle, we can really take advantage of
The main force only has one or two combat divisions... and with the strength of the Chinese Army, especially the Northeast Field Army, we can assemble at least 300,000 troops to attack our Korean garrison..." the deputy chief of staff, Lieutenant General, said with a look on his face.
He replied bitterly.
