"My second division of the war zone has taken the lead in launching an attack today, and the 40th Division took the initiative to attack at 9 o'clock!"

At 9:00 on October 10, the "National Day Offensive" officially kicked off.

With the 40th Division as the main force, supplemented by the 98th Division, 171st Division and 173rd Division, launching a fierce attack on the Fifth Division opposite. At that time, almost all the assets were taken out in the second division.

However, the island army had obviously been on guard against it. Its wings were centered on the Fifth Division, and the left and right wings were the Ninth and Eleventh Divisions.

On the 9th, the second war zone launched continuous attacks, but the results were not significant. By the evening, the offensive dropped sharply and retreated to the attack launch area and stood on standby.

This further verified the judgment of the Island Army Command that all the main forces of the Chinese army have gathered in the second war zone and attempted to reverse the situation on the battlefield in one fell swoop.

It was day and night, the commanders of the divisions of the Island Army received orders at the same time to calmly respond to the attack of the Chinese army and destroy their spirits. Then, each line launched a counterattack at the same time, completely laying the foundation for the victory of the imperial army in China.

But the Island Army Command never expected that the "Battle of the Eastern Front" would be staged again that day. The only difference was that this time the attack was not launched at any point, and the Island Army once again stepped into the same trap.

On October 11, the real attack in the third war zone of China began!

At 6 o'clock, in addition to the second war zone, the five major war zones exposed their ferocious minions at the same time, and opened the bloody mouths that devoured the invaders. The five major war zones attacked at the same time!

The first part of the commander-in-chief of the Tieding Kingdom, the third part of the commander-in-chief Ouyang Ping, the fourth part of the commander-in-chief Lin Weidong, the sixth part of the commander-in-chief Situ Tianrui, and the fifth part of the commander-in-chief General Xue Yue personally served as the commander-in-chief. On this day, all the forces of each sub-chief were put on the battlefield.

At 6:30, just half an hour after the general attack started, the first war zone commanded by the Tieding Kingdom quickly defeated the 101st Cavalry Brigade of the 101st Division, killed the squad leader Colonel Oshima Hikata, and completely annihilated the cavalry brigade.

The first victory in the battle was awesome!

After the second, each sub-station attacked rapidly, fighting continuously regardless of casualties. The commands, divisions and brigades of each sub-station were all arranged at the forefront of the battle, and all the commanders to the brigade commanders of each division below were all implemented.

At the same time, the New Fourth Army, affiliated to the Third War Zone, and the various detachments of the Zhongyi National Salvation Army, also launched operations on the same day, attacking the island army's grain transport team, destroying the enemy's traffic barriers, and cooperating with the frontal counterattack on the battlefield!

Political and intelligence teams frequently appeared in enemy-occupied areas, instigating the puppet troops and security teams in enemy-occupied areas, and inciting the people in enemy-occupied areas to resist. They turned the world behind the island army, greatly restraining the enemy's frontal battlefield operations.

During this day's battle, the Third War Zone launched 126 major and large battles, annihilated more than 2,900 enemies, killed one colonel, captured one colonel, and seized several chariots and artillery.

After the launch of the "National Day Offensive", all walks of life flew to the Third War Zone like a flake in the snow. Although the telegram from Mr. Wu Hao, deputy minister of the Political Department, was not long, it was the most representative.

"I'm happy to hear the counterattack of the Third War Zone, the whole country is boiling and the nation is inspiring. I resist the enemy's iron army and the pillars of the country. I continue to work hard, attack the Japanese invaders, exalt our country's power, and strengthen our country's soul!"

Although the offensive launched on the 11th day was awesome, the soldiers of the national army also paid a huge price for it.

A regiment leader named Qian from the 36th Division suddenly became seriously ill the day before yesterday when he launched the general attack, but gritted his teeth and insisted that he pulled out his gun and threatened his subordinates not to report to his superiors. After the general attack was launched, he took his seriously ill body to the battlefield and personally led the commando team to contact and launch several assaults.

By the afternoon, the commander Qian was seriously ill and could no longer hold on. He had always admired General Xing Yachuang, who sacrificed his life for the country. He followed General Xing Yachuang's example and ordered his subordinates to tie him to a stretcher to continue commanding the battle. Until the end of the battle on the 11th, the commander Qian commanded the battle for several hours on the stretcher.

That night, Captain Qian died after failed rescue and was the first senior officer to die since the launch of the "National Day Offensive".

Commander Qian was originally a Sichuan military officer with a wealthy family, but when the government sent condolences officials to his home, he found that only two acres of thin land were left. His wife was busy with farm work in the fields with her young sons. The officials were surprised and asked after asking. Only after they found out that Commander Qian had already sold his wealthy property before leaving Sichuan, and donated all the money they earned to the cause of the Anti-Japanese War.

Under the official's questioning, Captain Qian's wife just smiled faintly.

"Old Qian said before leaving Sichuan that the capital is almost gone, so what else should the family do? As long as the Japanese are driven away, we have good hands and feet, are we still afraid that we will not be able to earn these possessions?"

The official felt like he wanted to cry in an instant, and he wanted to slap himself hard.

When he came, he quietly greedyed for half of the pension of the head of the group without his conscience. This was originally a practice in the officialdom. As long as the family members did not pursue the matter, no one would take care of it. Besides, even if the orphans and widows knew about it, why should they pursue it?

This guilt has not been around for a long time, but now it has risen strongly into his heart.

He made a difficult time telling the news of Captain Qian's death, and Captain Qian's wife fainted on the ground without a sound.

When she woke up, she found herself lying in the hospital, and the official bitterly put all the pension on the cabinet aside.

"Mrs. Qian, this is the pension of the Group Leader Qian, and the country has issued new regulations. You will be given a fee for the dead martyrs every year. Until the child of the Group Leader Qian grows up, I will supervise this matter in person..."

Mrs. Qian was crying. She didn't know when the country had this new regulation, but at least her life and her children finally came to an end.

As expected, a sum of money was sent to her home every year, which gave her the courage and strength to raise her children alone.

Two years later, the official unfortunately died in a car accident. The "dead martyrs' fees" that are received every year were suddenly cut off. When Mrs. Qian took her children to the local government for inquiries, she found that there was no such fee at all. For the past two years, the official has been paying for the help of the orphans and widows.

After clarifying the whole story, the official who received Mrs. Qian also shed tears. A few days after Mrs. Qian returned, a new "Martyrs' Fee" suddenly remitted to her home.

No one knows who sent it, but it doesn't matter anymore...

"I've been hit by Zheng Yong's trick again!" Asakagumi Kuchihiko sat down a little decadently, looking very tired and old.

"The old trap and the old trick, but I stepped in for the second time. Now several major Chinese war zones have launched attacks on me at the same time, and my main force is concentrated here and cannot complete the redeployment in a short period of time. Even if it is forced to move, it will inevitably cause great chaos!"

Suzuki Sosaki's eyes moved away from the map.

"Mr. Commander, I don't think this is a bad thing."

Asakamiya Hirohiko's eyes fell on the Chief of Staff.

Suzuki Sosaki threw away the pen in his hand: "Commander, Zheng Yong treats himself as bait in order to make us fool. Since that's the case, why don't we just eat this bait? Please see..."

When Asakamiya Hirohiko came to the map, Suzuki Sousaki pointed to it and said.

"Here, we have gathered almost all the elite troops of the Empire here, and it is entirely possible to break through the Second War Zone of China in the shortest time. This trap is an opportunity for the Chinese army, and it is also an opportunity for the imperial soldiers. When Zheng Yong designed this trap, he actually put his neck on the noose.

I suggest that all the Fifth Division, the Ninth and Part 16th Divisions, be commanded by Sakagaki Seishiro, attack the Second Division of China, break through the defense line of the Second Division of China, defeat the General Command of the Chinese Army, completely reverse the situation on the battlefield, let the Chinese suffer the consequences and completely disintegrate their fighting spirit!"

Asakamiya Hirohiko listened carefully, and after a moment he pounded the table hard.

"Shishiro Sakagaki, the Fifth Division..."

As Suzuki Szusaki said, when Zheng Yong designed this trap, he actually put his neck on the noose, and in fact he also put a big bet.

He was using his head to lure the island army to attack, and he was using his life to make a huge bet.

Before the attack, the General Commander-in-Chief to the Staff and the Commander-in-Chief were allocated weapons. Unexpected situations would happen at any time. At that time, everyone here was a soldier.

"Commander-in-chief, let's transfer another regiment here."

Tao Ping still insisted on his opinion: "After all, there are too many emergencies, and our war zone lacks troops, so it is very difficult to deal with the attack of elite Japanese troops..."

"Tao Ping, I have never heard you say this when we were in the Northeast. Why did this official become more courageous when he becomes a big official?"

Zheng Yong put down the book in his hand.

"When we were in the Northeast, there were only a few people, and all the division commanders and brigade commanders were sealed by themselves. When the Japanese were about to come up, we rushed up with weapons. When the Japanese retreated, they all lay down on the ground again."

"It was then, now it is now!"

Tao Ping stomped his feet and wanted to persuade him, but suddenly remembered Zheng Yong's stubborn temper, smiled bitterly, and stopped his mouth.

"I think the Japanese will concentrate their main forces on attack tomorrow." Zheng Yong put away his smile.

"Now all the war zones are launching attacks. We are the key here. We must defend it and order the troops to resist step by step. We are not allowed to give up any position. Now we have to fight the will of the Japanese, and no one can stand it."

As he said that, he seemed to be talking to himself.

"We have nothing, no planes, no warships, and the only thing we have now is human life. This is our greatest advantage and the advantage we least want to see..."

Advantages, it really makes people feel sad to say that such advantages.
