After half a day of flattery, Tada Shunya finally got back to the topic.
"Your Excellency, Commander, I think we can immediately order the frontline troops to launch an attack today. At the same time, we can ask the warriors of the Special High School to carry out some special activities in the Laiyang area to disrupt the sight of the Chinese troops."
The famous colonel stood up and faced Tada Shundao.
"Yoshi. Good advice."
"Your Excellency, Commander, I suggest that since the Chinese Air Force has been abolished, we should use our superior strength to conduct sea, land and air operations to completely cripple the Chinese people, take back Laiyang, and demonstrate our great Japanese empire.
of bravery.”
"Yes, we can indeed say hello to the Air Force and Navy."
"Your Majesty Commander, I suggest..."
…
At noon and 12 o'clock on April 11, 1939, the Japanese launched an attack on Laiyang and the surrounding areas.
Gan Xinda looked at the Japs not far from the position and smiled. He always felt that this time, the Japs would suffer another big loss. After getting the information that the Japs were going to attack Laiyang, the troops stationed in various places began to reinforce it again.
Their fortifications were used to deal with the enemy's aircraft and artillery.
Soon, Gan Xinda heard the buzzing sound. Sure enough, the Japanese couldn't bear the loneliness. Gan Xinda immediately said to the soldiers around him, "Let all the brothers hide."
"yes!"
Then, huge shells fell one after another, landing on the defensive position of the 1st Regiment, kicking up the soil, and shaking the heads of the soldiers of the 1st Regiment.
…
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, the Chinese have not counterattacked at all." A Japanese major general put down his binoculars and said to the Japanese lieutenant general.
"Yo Xi, now that the Chinese don't have an air force, of course they can only tremble under the majesty of our imperial army's air force." The Japanese lieutenant general laughed. Originally, he thought he would be like this in his life, but he didn't expect it.
, the country continues to recruit troops, and at the same time, troops need to be used in the Laiyang area, and what is even more gratifying is that the North China Front Army has already had a plan to deal with the Laiyang Independent Division. In other words, they came here purely to establish meritorious deeds.
"I never thought that I, Takahashi Suzuyan, would be able to fight against the Laiyang Independent Division again, and that I would have a chance to avenge my past humiliation."
"Hey, I think the previous soldiers will also be very pleased." The Japanese Major General also sighed and said. They were the second Japanese army that was defeated by Zhou Weiguo with Croton. They were a division commander and a chief of staff. They originally thought
, the two of them would never have the opportunity to use it because of such a defeat, but what they didn't expect was that not only would they have the opportunity, but it would also happen so quickly. The most important thing is that they seemed to have seen the independent division being trampled under their feet, and for
The former soldiers seek revenge.
"After the air force leaves, let's continue bombarding China's positions." Takahashi Suzuyan said, "I want them to know what real bombardment is."
"Hi!"
…
Gan Xinda looked at the retreating Japanese plane from the air-raid shelter without any reaction, and said, "Continue to let the brothers take cover. It is estimated that there will be artillery fire from the enemy on the opposite side."
"yes!"
Ten minutes later, artillery shells roared from the Japanese position.
"boom!"
"boom!"
A huge explosion once again hit the 1st Regiment's position.
Most of the soldiers in the bomb-proof cave had cotton stuffed in their ears. After all, although there were fortifications, the loud sound was no joke. If you are not careful, it may cause deafness.
Gan Xinda put down the telescope and frowned, "How much do the Japanese on the other side hate us? The attack frequency and speed of these artillery shells are too desperate, right?"
"I don't know." The soldier next to him replied, "Commander, tell me, could it be the time we used Croton?"
"It's hard to say. According to intelligence analysis, some contradictions have begun to emerge in the Japanese country." Gan Xinda said, "Last time, the Japanese wanted to surround us, but we defeated them with Croton. It can be said that we are very aggrieved."
"Tuanzu, what kind of contradiction is this?"
"Distribution of vested interests." Gan Xinda said, "It can be said that the war started by the Japanese was saved by the people across the country through frugality. After all, Japan is an island country with a shortage of resources. However, under the war,
, the Japs have no income for civilians, and even many families have been destroyed because of the war. These are all contradictions. In order to divert these contradictions, the Japs can only continue to open battlefields, carry out wars, and plunder resources."
The soldier next to him was silent for a moment and said, "Although I don't understand it very well, to put it bluntly, it's equivalent to uneven distribution of the spoils."
Gan Xinda thought of Laixi and nodded, "It is true. Every time the Japanese attack our independent division, a lot of resources will be spent. But we can drag the entire Japanese country into the quagmire of war. Fighting for resources,
Even if they risk their lives, the Japanese will certainly not be able to defeat us."
After Gan Xinda finished speaking, the Japanese shelling almost stopped.
"Okay, brothers, you can retreat back." Gan Xinda said immediately.
"yes!"
Subsequently, most of the soldiers of the 1st Regiment retreated from the fortifications.
…
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, the Chinese people seem to be retreating?"
Takahashi Suzuyan also put down his telescope and laughed loudly, "Order the warriors to attack. The Chinese people no longer have the courage to fight us."
"Hi!"
…
"Kill me!"
"Rush forward, kill the Chinese pig, and avenge the warriors!"
"Long Live His Majesty the Emperor!"
Crazy shouts rang out, and more than 10,000 Japanese soldiers chased Ganxinda in the direction of retreat.
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, the Chinese people showed no resistance at all!"
"Yoshi, order, warriors, step up the pursuit and don't let the Chinese escape!"
"Hi!"
Under such circumstances, the Japanese soldiers did not even have time to rest, so they listened to the command and kept rushing forward.
…
Soon, Gan Xinda's regiment retreated to Xiagezhuang Town.
"How's it going? Have the Japanese followed?" Gan Xinda asked.
"Commander, follow us. The leading Japanese troops are only 5 miles away from us."
"Okay, let the brothers get into position and get ready."
"yes!"
Xiagezhuang Town was the place where the 1st Regiment first defended. The defenses here were even much stronger than those in Lingshan Town. The 1st Regiment gave up the position in Lingshan Town, and the Japanese didn't even think about it, and just chased them all the way. And Gan Xinda
, artillery has been arranged outside Xiagezhuang Town. Once the devils arrive at this location, their regiment of artillery will let the devils know what is the real artillery and what is the real truth. In the artillery
within range.
"Tuanzuo, the Japanese are here."
"Okay, let Commander Zhang Feng do what he wants. I only have one request, that is, after the shelling stops, at least half of the Japs in the field must fall down, and then let the brothers of the Chariot Regiment block the Japs' retreat.
