Chapter 2030 Back to the light and back to the light
Xu Rui was under a lot of pressure, but Ishihara Wan'er was actually under even more pressure, because at least at this time, the Japanese Seventh Army's losses were far greater than those of the Chahar Independent Regiment, especially the losses of the aviation corps, which made Ishihara Wan'er bleed even more.
Just a moment ago, Ishihara Kanji also took Yano Otonzaburo, Koizumi Senzaburo and several senior officials to the rooftop of the small foreign building where the headquarters is located. Since there are no tall buildings or mountains within dozens of miles, so
The view from the top of the small foreign building is very wide. Even without the help of a telescope, you can see the fighting situation in Fengtian.
Seeing the cloud of shells fired by the enemy's anti-aircraft guns almost covering the entire night sky, and the ballistic trajectories of the enemy's anti-aircraft machine guns weaving a dense fire net in the night sky, several old Japanese soldiers couldn't help but breathe in the cold air. This was already
This was not the first time they had seen the Chahar Independent Regiment's anti-aircraft firepower network, but last time it was during the day, this time it was at night, so the visual effect was not as intense as this time.
Ishihara Wanji could not imagine how many anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns the Chahar Independent Regiment deployed in Fengtian City to build such a dense air defense firepower network! Baga, this guy Xu Rui is really
They are willing to spend money and would rather weaken the firepower of the combat troops than make any compromise on the air defense network.
It must be admitted that Xu Rui is still very far-sighted, and his persistence has paid off handsomely!
In just over half an hour since Kanji Ishihara and the others went up to the rooftop, at least sixteen fighter jets or attack aircraft have been shot down by the air defense fire network. They watched one after another aircraft flying in the night sky.
It bloomed into a ball of fire. Even though Ishihara Wan'er was used to seeing big scenes, the muscles on his face inevitably twitched violently!
The loss was too great, the loss was too great! According to this method of loss, after one night of fierce fighting, the Third Flying Regiment would have lost at least nearly one-third of its aircraft. Even in the Wuhan air battle that year, the losses of the Japanese aviation force were also
It's not that big. Ishihara Wan'er can't imagine how to explain it to the base camp after this battle is over.
Yano Otonzaburo was also frightened. He endured it for a long time, but finally couldn't hold it back. He stepped forward to persuade Ishihara and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, Commander, carry out low-altitude bombing against the dense air defense firepower network of the Chahar Independent Regiment. It will cost you a lot."
It’s too big! In just this moment, the Third Flight Regiment has lost nearly twenty aircraft. If the bombing continues for another night, I can’t imagine how many fighter jets and attack aircraft will be lost in the end?”
Junzaburo Koizumi glanced at Ishihara Wanji and wanted to persuade him but did not dare to speak.
Koizumi Junzaburo has always disliked Yano Otozaburo and regarded him as an obstacle to his promotion. However, regarding the air raid on Fengten, his views were consistent with Yano Otozaburo's. They both believed that such a reckless low-altitude bombing was too crazy.
Okay, this is simply a big gamble with the Third Flying Group.
If you can win the bet, that's all. What if you don't win?
As the old saying goes, nine times out of ten you bet, you lose, nine times out of ten you bet, you lose!
Seeing that Ishihara Wanji did not respond, Yano Otonzaburo once again advised: "Your Excellency, Commander, it is still too late to stop now, because the Imperial Army still has an absolute advantage, regardless of armor, aviation or infantry, the Imperial Army still has
Occupying an absolute advantage, if it stops at this time, the Chahar Independent Regiment will never be able to leave the city to pursue it. Therefore, the imperial army can calmly withdraw to Xinjing under the cover of the aviation and armored divisions..."
"Then what?" Ishihara Wanji interrupted Yano Otonzaburo rudely and said angrily, "Then what? Will Fengtian and the entire Liaoning Province be given to Xu Rui? Yano-kun, you don't know that Liaoning is the only
It is the essence of Manchukuo, and Fengtian is the center of Manchuria. Are we going to hand over Fengtian and Liaoning Province to Xu Rui?"
Yano Otonzaburo sighed: "Your Excellency, Commander, it is not that you have to grow up the ambitions of others and destroy your own prestige because of your humble position, but with the current situation, the best result can only be to give up Fengtian and most of Liaodong. Doing this will at least help you."
We can protect the area north of Xinjing and the entire Liaodong Peninsula, but if we continue to spend more time in Fengtian and the Chahar Independent Regiment, once all the main forces of our Seventh Army are exhausted, and the Chahar Independent Regiment gathers the periphery again, it will already be tens of thousands of times.
If one hundred thousand civilian armed forces launch a counterattack, then it will not be Liaodong Province that falls, but the entire Manchuria!"
After hearing this, Junzaburo Koizumi nodded subconsciously and fully agreed with Yano Otozaburo's analysis.
But unfortunately, Ishihara Wanji couldn't listen to it at all. Now all he could think about was how to capture Fengtian in the shortest time, and how to defeat Xu Rui, the emperor's mortal enemy of the empire. He
Just like a desperate gambler who is desperate to lose at the gambling table, he is desperate!
"Order the Third Flying Regiment, the bombing cannot stop!"
After saying that, Ishihara smiled and turned around and went down to the rooftop, leaving behind Yano Otonzaburo, Koizumi Junzaburo and several senior advisers from the headquarters. Koizumi Junzaburo stared blankly at the bright night sky ahead in the direction of Fengtian for a while.
He also turned around and left, followed by several senior advisers, but Yano Otonzaburo stayed on the rooftop until late at night before finally leaving.
When Yano Otonzaburo left the headquarters rooftop, the Third Flying Regiment had already lost more than a hundred aircraft. Yano Otonzaburo could not imagine that if the low-altitude bombing of Fengtian City continued until dawn, the Third Flying Regiment would eventually be
How many fighter jets and attack aircraft were lost?
However, this is not what worries Yano Otonzaburo the most.
What Yano Otonzaburo is most worried about is the entire battle situation.
Commander Ishihara Wanji has obviously stepped into a corner. For the sake of his personal reputation and honor, or for his personal future, he has done whatever it takes, even risking the entire 7th Army and the entire 3rd Flying Group. But as a
The Chief of Staff of the Seventh Army, Yano Otonzaburo, felt that something must be done.
Therefore, after coming down from the rooftop, Yano Otonzaburo sent a telegram to the Japanese base camp and the Kwantung Army headquarters in Xinjing respectively. In addition to reporting to the base camp and the Kwantung Army headquarters, he reported the latest situation of the Battle of Fengtian, and also
His worries were also expressed.
However, what Yano Otonzaburo never expected was that when his telegram was sent to the Japanese base camp, Kanin Miya Zaihito happened to be hospitalized due to overwork recently, and Army Minister Terauchi Juichi was sent to Kansai to inspect the reserves.
Nagaoiso Kuniaki was present, but the old Japanese did not take Yano Otonzaburo's telegram seriously. He also said that Yano Otonzaburo was reporting Ishihara Kanji's black case to the base camp because of Ishihara Kanji's distrust.
However, the commander of the Kwantung Army, Umezu Yoshijiro, took the report very seriously. In view of the seriousness of the situation, the old devil decisively forcibly took back more than 300 T-34 tanks stranded at Xinjing Railway Station to the Kwantung Army, and at the same time moved Xinjing
The several tons of diesel oil that the gendarmerie had just seized were also intercepted and not handed over to the Seventh Army.
…
Let’s go back and talk about the Fengtian battlefield.
Ishihara Wanji's death-defying tactics not only caused a large number of self-inflicted wounds to his own troops, but also caused almost the same amount of damage to the Chahar Independent Regiment, because the aerial bombs falling from the sky did not distinguish whether you were a Japanese or a Japanese.
For the Chinese, their killing effects are completely equal.
But faced with the same casualties, the Chahar Independent Regiment will definitely be the first to be unable to hold on.
As a Type 96 dive attack aircraft passed by at low altitude, another fifty-kilogram aerial bomb fell, and exploded immediately. The air wave generated by the explosion instantly swept across a radius of fifty or sixty meters, and was at the barricade.
He Shuya, who was directing the battle from behind, was also affected by the edge of the air wave and was immediately thrown away.
He Shuya flew at least ten meters in the air before hitting a house on the street and falling. Fortunately, the impact site was on his back. If it were on the neck, it could directly lead to a broken neck and end his life! But even so,
He Shuya was still shaken to pieces by the violent impact and couldn't recover for a long time.
In a daze, bombs kept exploding, and rockets dragged their long tail flames past the sky above. However, there were bullets whizzing past the top of the head, pulling out bright streaks in the night sky.
In addition to ballistics, there were huge fireworks one after another, bursting into flames in the night sky.
Then, He Shuya saw Tieniu appearing in front of him.
Tieniu's face was full of anxiety, his mouth opened and closed, and he seemed to be shouting.
However, He Shuya couldn't hear at all, and his head was even dizzy and he was confused.
It wasn't until almost ten seconds passed that He Shuya finally regained consciousness, and then various sounds flooded into his ears, and at the same time he heard Tieniu's voice.
Tieniu shouted loudly: "Batalion Commander, how are you doing, Battalion Commander?!"
"It's okay, Tieniu, I'm okay!" He Shuya patted Tieniu on the shoulder and asked, "What's the situation now?"
"It's terrible!" Tieniu said sadly, "Including you and me, there are less than fifty brothers left in the whole battalion, but the Japanese sent another group of people up, at least one infantry squadron, and
There are four tanks!”
After finishing speaking, Tieniu stretched out his hand and pointed. He Shuya looked in the direction of Tieniu's finger and saw that on Beimen Street, which was littered with corpses of soldiers from both sides, another group of Japanese soldiers were approaching with bayonets.
In front of the group of Japanese soldiers, four tanks were lined up. The only good news was that the tanks coming up this time were no longer T-34 tanks.
At this time, He Shuya was still able to laugh out loud, and said while laughing: "It seems that the Japs are about to run out of gas. You see, the Japs no longer have T-34 tanks, or even Type 97 tanks."
All are gone, but we can only dispatch the Type 95 light tank with the thinnest skin. Hehehehe, the Japanese can't stand it anymore."
But Tieniu complained bitterly: "The problem is, even if it's just the 95th style, it's enough to deal with us."
The current situation of the Second Battalion is very bad, even the Type 95 tanks are enough to crush them.
However, at this moment, the officers and soldiers of the Second Battalion heard the roar of an engine that was both familiar and unfamiliar.
