Chapter 1268 The 1st Brigade of Field Heavy Artillery attacks
Lieutenant General Susumu Fujita, commander of the Japanese 3rd Division, and Colonel Toshio, the chief of staff, were stunned by such an incredible scene. They originally thought that the Japanese 9th Division could easily occupy the entire Suzhou.
city, but who knew that now there would be a battle situation that was completely beyond their expectation.
Not only was the Japanese Ninth Division subjected to air raids and bombings by enemy aircraft of unknown origin, but it was also bombarded by heavy artillery units in Suzhou City. Not only was the entire artillery unit destroyed, but even the infantry and tanks operating in coordination with each other were destroyed.
A lot of Japanese infantry units and Doudin tanks were also bombed.
There were wreckage of tanks and chariots everywhere, as well as the corpses of Japanese soldiers.
Looking at such a shocking battle situation in front of me,
Lieutenant General Susumu Fujita, the commander of the Third Division, and Colonel Toshio, the chief of staff, could not help but shudder. They also felt that they were very lucky and did not compete with the Japanese ninth division to be the first to attack Suzhou City.
of meritorious service in battle,
Otherwise, it would be their third division's troops and artillery units that would be killed and injured by the enemy aircraft groups and heavy artillery units.
"Your Excellency, Division Commander! Should we use our artillery units immediately to knock out the heavy artillery units of the Chinese Army in Suzhou City? Otherwise, once the Ninth Division suffers too many casualties, there will be no way for our subsequent offensive operations.
Any benefit!"
But after coming back to his senses,
Chief of Staff Toshio Toshio immediately reminded the division commander beside him, Lieutenant General Susumu Fujita.
"Sou Ga! I want it!"
"A must!"
"Otherwise, once the Ninth Division is crippled by the enemy, then only our Third Division will be left to attack Suzhou City alone! Especially now we don't know who the defenders of Suzhou City are.
That Chinese army number!"
"Damn China Army, haven't all their main German troops been driven away by us? How come there is still China Army here that is resisting tenaciously?"
"So when we are assisting in the operation, we must immediately let our intelligence department collect all the information on the Chinese defenders in Suzhou City! We absolutely cannot engage in a full-scale battle with troops who do not know the details!"
"Especially for the China Army, which has a heavy artillery force, it is even more important to collect all its information!"
"This China Army stationed in Suzhou City is definitely the elite elite unit of the China Army. Otherwise, it would be impossible to have heavy artillery units to counterattack our Imperial Army!"
"The China Army only has a few heavy artillery units. We have already destroyed one or two heavy artillery units in the Songhu battle, so it shouldn't be difficult to find out their numbers!"
"Check it out for me!"
Regarding the proposal of Chief of Staff Toshio Toshio,
The division commander, Lieutenant General Fujita Susumu, not only readily agreed,
And he immediately issued new combat instructions to him.
"Hai! I will immediately ask the intelligence department to give us the information. In addition, I will personally urge them to speed up the reporting of information on the Chinese Army in Suzhou City!"
Chief of Staff Colonel Toshio Tian also nodded in agreement.
"Hey! Then let our 1st Field Heavy Artillery Brigade immediately conduct artillery bombardments on the Chinese Army's heavy artillery units in Suzhou City and knock out their heavy artillery!"
"Also, let our Imperial Air Force quickly support the operation. Although these damn enemy aircraft groups have already bombed the artillery positions of the 9th Division and the infantry and tank coordination positions, they are ready to leave!"
"But our Imperial Army is not so easy to bully. We must go back with revenge. I want to bloodbath the entire Suzhou City!"
Lieutenant General Susumu Fujita, the division commander, continued to give instructions.
"Hai!"
Chief of Staff Colonel Toshio Tian nodded in agreement.
Then he personally went to supervise the execution of the orders of the division commander Lieutenant General Susumu Fujita.
The division commander, Lieutenant General Susumu Fujita, also continued to observe the battle situation between the Ninth Division and Suzhou City.
Not long after,
The 1st Field Heavy Artillery Brigade of the Japanese 3rd Division, which consisted of the 2nd Field Heavy Artillery Regiment, the 3rd Field Heavy Artillery Regiment, and the 3rd Field Artillery Regiment, also immediately launched artillery bombing and counterattack operations.
Soon, an overwhelming swarm of heavy artillery shells began to bombard Suzhou City, carrying out retaliatory artillery bombing operations.
at the same time,
The 1st Flying Regiment, the 2nd Flying Regiment, and the 7th Flying Regiment, which supported the Japanese 3rd Division and conducted air operations, also hurriedly launched all Japanese aircraft groups to support the battle in Suzhou City.
At that time, the entire city of Suzhou was shrouded in the crisis of the Japanese army's retaliatory counterattack.
However, the main force of the national army that had evacuated from the Suzhou River and the remnants of the four German weapon divisions were full of shock. They stared at the sky full of war flames and thick gunpowder smoke in Suzhou City behind them, as if the earth was shaking and the mountains were shaking.
The rumbling sound of shelling and bombing kept ringing in their ears,
It was like a nightmare, frightening their panicked hearts.
