Renta Nonaka is a veteran. He was born in an ordinary rural area in Tokyo and has been in the army for ten years. Looking at the mighty troops around him, he can't help but think of his former comrades. The First Division is
The headquarters of the Imperial Faction was originally guarded in Tokyo. During the battle between the Imperial Faction and the Control Faction, the Imperial Faction misjudged the situation and launched the February 26th Incident. Among them was the First Alliance of the First Division.
More than a thousand members of the regiment and the third regiment. Although the first division successfully suppressed the rebellion, it was still transferred to Manchuria at that time. Renta Nonaka, who was still a squad leader at the time, came to China at that time.
Renta Nonaka couldn't help but sigh, if those rebellious comrades had not rebelled, they must be enjoying the supreme glory of conquering China just like himself.
Nonaka Renta shook his head and dismissed these memories of the past. Now, he is already a captain and the pride of the village. What he needs to do now is to defeat all the enemies in front of him and seize this huge China to present to His Majesty the Emperor.
.
"How far is it to Qinglong Town?" Nonaka Renta looked at the sky and asked. It was almost three or four o'clock in the afternoon. Winter evenings came early, and before reaching Qinglong Town, the troops had to camp again.
"There are still four or five miles, we will be there soon!" The person who spoke was a puppet soldier. Nonaka Renta didn't like such a person, but after all, he could help the great cause of the empire, so Nonaka Renta opened his eyes and closed them.
At this time, a "bang" explosion was suddenly heard.
"What's the sound? What's going on in front? Is it a guerrilla from the Chinese Army?" Renta Nonaka heard the explosion and immediately stood up and dismounted and asked.
"Report, it's a landmine. Someone stepped on a mine in front." A soldier on horseback ran over and said.
"Nani? Landmines? The Chinese army can only do this. Immediately send engineering teams forward to clear mines. Others, be on guard and rest." Nonaka Renta immediately made the most correct choice. He only saw a dozen carrying
The minesweeper engineer walked to the front, held the minesweeper against the ground, and slowly swept up the mines.
At this time, the unlucky guy who stepped on the landmine was carried down. In order to show his concern, Renta Nonaka stepped forward and took a look. He only saw the soldier howling in pain. When he opened the sheets, he only saw him.
Both legs were bloody and bloody, and it looked like he could not be saved. Renta Nonaka took a breath and felt silently for this soldier. Such people are useless people. Even if they save one life, they will not be able to return to the country.
What kind of happy ending will there be? Dragging down the family and causing family misfortune will be a reflection of his life for the rest of his life.
"Captain, my leg, my leg can still be saved, right?" the wounded soldier cried, holding Renta Nonaka's hand and said.
Renta Nonaka was about to comfort the soldier when he suddenly heard several more "bang" explosions. He quickly stood up and asked, "What's going on? What's going on ahead?"
The squadron leader at the front stammered and said, "Our engineers have stepped on a mine."
"Baga, Baga." Renta Nonaka slapped the squadron leader several times, then rode his horse to the front. He only saw four or five wailing wounded soldiers lying on the ground, and the Japanese troops around him cowered.
He didn't dare to go to the rescue.
"Baga, what are you doing? Why don't you hurry up and save people?" Renta Nonaka pushed an engineer forward. The engineer was holding his minesweeper cautiously and mumbling something. He found that there was no response all the way in front of him.
Then he slowly walked forward, everyone held their breath, watching him step by step to the side of the wounded soldier, carrying the wounded soldier on his shoulders, Nonaka Renta nodded and said, "Look, just be careful.
, nothing will happen, the troops will continue to clear mines, and others will be on guard."
Just as the other engineers continued to pick up the deminers, before they had gone ten meters forward, there was another explosion, and a leg flew into the air and flew right in front of Renta Nonaka, who was so frightened that Renta Nonaka almost fell down.
"Baga, what's going on with you? Don't you need to be careful?" Renta Nonaka shouted quickly.
"Your Excellency, Captain, something is wrong. Our minesweeper seems to have no response to this mine. It has been so long and we have not found any mines. We only found out when we stepped on them." The leader of the engineering team said anxiously.
"Nani, are you saying that the empire's minesweepers can't detect China's mines yet?" Renta Nonaka said in disbelief.
The engineer team leader nodded, and then an engineer shouted, "I found it."
Renta Nonaka nodded and said, "Where is it? I'll tell you, how come you can't find it?"
The engineer said with a cry, "Under my feet, I feel like I stepped on something."
Renta Nonaka looked at the squad leader and waved his hand. The squad leader stepped forward helplessly and slowly pushed away the soil around the soldier. He only saw a small green box, which seemed to be no bigger than the palm of his hand.
"It's a model I've never seen before!" the squad leader shouted loudly. At this time, the soldier didn't know whether he was afraid or his legs were weak. He moved his feet slightly, and saw the green small box jump up suddenly, and then
There was an explosion, and countless steel balls flew in all directions. The steel balls with huge inertia happily flew around and smashed everything on the road, whether they were bones or flesh and blood.
Nonaka Renta stared dumbfounded at the two men lying in a pool of blood. He no longer dared to call anyone forward casually, but quickly reported to the captain.
When the commander of the regiment learned that it was just a few small landmines that forced his troops to stop on the road, he immediately expressed deep doubts about Renta Nonaka's ability. However, as it was getting late, he did not bother to scold him and instead organized the entire coalition to
The engineers of the team stepped forward to clear mines and asked the cavalry to find other roads.
On the other side of the hill outside Qinglong Town, Lin Sanhu looked at the map on the wall. A communications soldier riding a fast horse quickly dismounted, came to Lin Sanhu and said, "Report to the division commander, the Japanese army was blocked by landmines in Qinglong Town."
About three kilometers away. Our scouts saw that the Japanese engineers had no way to deal with this mine. Every one who went up to it died. Now the Japanese army does not dare to move at all."
"Okay, this gadget is really so useful." Nie Rongzhen admired as he played with the anti-infantry mine in his hand.
Lin Sanhu smiled slightly and said, "Don't underestimate the Japs. Although the Japs engineers can't detect this mine, the Japs still have tanks. The steel balls in our mines can't deal with their tanks."
Nie Rongzhen said disapprovingly, "Isn't there a big one? If the small one doesn't work, just go to the big one. I don't believe it. This big one can't deal with it either." He pointed to a big sesame seed-like mine in the corner.
Lin Sanhu asked, "Has the artillery team directly under the headquarters arrived at the designated position?"
The staff officer next to him immediately stood up and replied, "Report, we have arrived at Caijiagang and can cover the entire preset battlefield."
Lin Sanhu nodded and said, "Now let's see how many of our friends can come?"
Nie Rongzhen asked, "How many do you hope to come?"
Lin Sanhu took out a handful of soybeans and put it into his teacup, sat down slowly and said, "Han Xin orders troops, the more the merrier!"
After paying dozens of lives, the Japanese army outside Qinglong Town finally gave up the method of using engineers to clear mines. The cavalrymen who went out were also blown up by the mines planted outside. Now the Japanese army understood that the mines looked
They were buried everywhere, and there was no way to go on this road until they were completely solved. I only saw a few Japanese Type 89 tanks lined up in a row, slowly driving forward along the road, and the infantry
Walking hanging behind.
Honda Masakai, who had already come to the front, looked at the tank and slowly drove forward, nodded and said, "Very good, take a look, you have to use your head more. It's just a small box, how much explosives can it hold?"
Once the tanks of our Imperial Japanese Empire crush us, everything will be solved."
Sure enough, under the weight of the tank, those anti-infantry mines detonated one after another, but those steel balls posed no threat to the Japanese Type 89 tanks. Everyone laughed happily, and the sound of Japanese soldiers imitating the explosions was amusing.
Everyone laughed.
Suddenly, there was a huge explosion, and everyone quickly looked around, only to see that an 89 tank that was still majestic just now had been blown up and smoke was rising, and the tracks were blown away.
After a while, the tank crew climbed out desperately, fearing that it would explode. Fortunately, the smoke emitted for a while but nothing happened.
"Baga!! My tank!" Masato Honda saw that his beloved tank was destroyed like this. He was so angry that he wanted to find a few people to behead him to vent his anger. Now he was embarrassed. The infantrymen suffered heavy casualties again, and the tanks
, I really can’t bear to part with it.
Honda weighed the situation for a long time but found no solution. At this time, the puppet soldier who had just spoken to Nonaka Renta stepped forward and said, "Taijun, don't worry, these Chinese troops are cunning and cunning, but I have a way."
Honda Masato glanced at him and said, "What's your name? If you have a way, I will definitely reward you greatly."
The traitor hurriedly nodded and bowed and said, "Ah, ah, Taijun Domeng is very interested in me. My name is Li Jinlong, and I am very loyal to our Empire of Japan. Look, Taijun, there is something in our common people's homes.
After we found the stone mill for grinding wheat, we put it together with our chariot and used the stone mill to press the road. In this way, the small mines would not be able to blow up our imperial army. The big mines were only used to blow up the stone mill, which was harmless.
,what do you think?"
Honda Zhengcai's eyes lit up when he heard this and he said, "Your good citizen, I will reward you heavily. Okay, come here, go find Shimo immediately, and then do what this person named Jin does.
immediately!!"
A group of Japanese soldiers found the nearby village chief, only to see that the village was already quiet and no one was around. The Japanese soldiers walked into the village entrance. After taking a few steps, an explosion suddenly occurred at the feet of the Japanese soldiers walking in the front, scaring the Japanese soldiers behind.
I quickly got down and looked for the enemy everywhere. I found that the Japanese soldier's legs in front had been blown off and he was lying on the ground wailing. Then I realized that it was the mine again.
"Baga!! Why are there mines everywhere? How many more mines are there?" Several Japanese soldiers were dizzy after being bombed, but the engineer's minesweeper could not find the mines and could only keep cursing the Chinese army.
, and occasionally scolded the suppliers of inferior minesweepers for who knows how much money was spent to buy them.
The Japanese army spent hundreds of legs to find enough stone mills, installed them, and started to advance again, the sky was already getting dark.
The troops behind had already arrived here. Thousands of Japanese troops were in a dense darkness. Looking at the vaguely shadowed town walls, the Japanese troops were angry and anxious. They had to wait for the tanks in front to clear mines.
The four to five mile road actually only takes ten minutes for the Japanese tanks to drive, but the explosions along the way took almost three hours, and the stone mill to roll the road cost thirty or forty yuan. This is also in the north.
, the locals all eat noodles, and almost every household has a stone mill, so they can collect so much.
When Honda saw Qinglong Town, he was almost moved to tears. It was not easy. Who put these damn landmines? There are nearly two hundred wounded soldiers with broken legs in his army.
Such casualties would hardly occur when fighting with a Chinese army group. I immediately sent someone to investigate, but were told that it was empty and no one was there.
The Japanese army entered the city with torches and found that the city was indeed empty. Honda sat down in the town government and waited for dinner. A staff officer came in and said, "Report, the whole city has been searched, and there is no one. And
It looks like we left not long ago, but there are still a lot of mines planted outside the city, and some of our sentries were killed. There are still a lot of supplies that have not been moved away."
"Oh? There are supplies? What are they?" Masato Honda asked with interest.
"It's a large amount of roughage, including some straw and corn straw. We also found a lot of open coal in several warehouses at the gate of the city. It should be used for the arsenal not far away." The staff officer said.
"Straw? Why are there so many straws? Logically speaking, a town wouldn't have that many straws. Have you searched for anything? Is there anything underneath those straws?" Honda asked in confusion.
road.
"There is nothing. We found documents abandoned by the Chinese army. This was originally the station of two cavalry divisions, so there was so much fodder. This is an abandoned document. It was found in a haystack."
With that said, he handed over a dirty document.
Honda frowned and looked at it, nodded and said, "Well, it seems that the Chinese are using the cavalry as a force to break up the rear. Do you think we can't catch up? Huh, I'll have to take a look. When we get to Taiyuan, they
How to run? We are only one day away from Taiyuan now. Let the soldiers have a good rest and then work together to capture Taiyuan!"
At this time, the cooking team came up with hot meals. Honda Masai looked at the food and nodded and said, "Okay, remember to keep the sentries out. The one who can lay such mines must be a strong army. Maybe there are some nearby."
Their guerrillas, don’t give them any chance to take advantage of them. How do the troops rest?"
The staff officer said, "We have more than 5,700 troops. More than 4,000 are stationed in the city, and a thousand are stationed outside the city along the wall to coordinate with each other."
Honda then waved his hand with relief and asked the staff officer to go out. After finishing the meal, he fell asleep peacefully.
When the Japanese army fell asleep, countless eyes were staring at Qinglong Town.
