Chapter 153 The rage of Brigade Commander Major General Kanichiro Ueno
"what happened?"
When such a dense explosion sounded, all the high-ranking foreign officers immediately cast their eyes on Sihang Warehouse and exclaimed in surprise.
"It's the bombing of the mortar group, the bombing of the mortar troops on the Chinese side. They are bombarding the Japanese positions!"
"Hiss! How come the Chinese army in this warehouse has so many mortars?"
"So many mortars are more than the equipment of a regiment!"
"No! It's more than the configuration of a division!"
"Impossible! How could they have so many mortars firing at once?"
"How many Chinese troops are there in the Sihang Warehouse?"
"And what kind of weapons and equipment are they equipped with?"
After a salvo of more than thirty 20-year-old Republic of China 82mm mortars,
Immediately, the British commander Smartet was the first to lose his voice and exclaimed.
For the British army, just a few dozen mortars is certainly not a big deal.
But what really surprised him was that the defenders of a Sihang Warehouse suddenly used almost forty mortars to launch a salvo.
With his poor configuration of the national army, it is really incredible.
So he really wanted to know how many troops the national army had in Sihang Warehouse, and how many mortars were deployed at once.
You must know that many troops in the national army do not have mortars or artillery.
Even if the strength of a regiment is small, there are not many mortars.
So after so many mortar counterattacks suddenly appeared, the British commander Smallett's mind, while exclaiming, was also wondering whether the other party had deployed more than one regiment of troops in the Sihang Warehouse.
inside.
"Let someone investigate immediately, or ask the supreme commander of the Chinese army!"
"I don't want their warehouses to have weapons and equipment such as heavy artillery that can destroy gas tanks. Although heavy artillery is a very lacking weapon and equipment for the Chinese army, we still need to warn them just in case.
of!"
"Also, don't use it continuously, as it may cause the Japanese troops to launch a mortar bombing operation with heavy firepower counterattack!"
"I hope that both of them can limit the confrontation to rifles and light and heavy machine guns. This is for the benefit of other European and American concessions!"
"Once two large gas tanks are detonated, our concession will suffer!"
“At that time, we really don’t know how much property will be lost and how many casualties will be caused!”
French commander Tony Paca also responded nervously.
The commander of the American cavalry unit, Blas Pitt, has already begun to have people investigate this issue.
And he immediately raised the military telescope in his hand again and looked at the Japanese position at Sihang Warehouse, hoping to see the casualties on the Japanese side.
I saw the Japanese army's position, and there was smoke everywhere on that side, and there were bursts of wailing sounds, and there were also bursts of curses, all of which were the sneak attacks of the mortar group of the national army.
bombing.
There was also a Japanese medical team, which also rushed over to carry out rescue work.
Then there were some Japanese mortar units and grenade units, which were also hurriedly preparing for counterattack artillery bombing.
Then for a moment, the sound of mortar bombing in the entire Sihang Warehouse rang again.
"Tum! Tum! Tum!"
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
"Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom."
But after the artillery bombardment of the Japanese troops came down,
All the 82mm mortar units under He Feiyang's command had already evacuated early.
They had already evacuated towards the bank.
Because at this time, the tunnel on that side has also been dug,
And it is still connected to the Sihang Warehouse, so you can also go back to the Sihang Warehouse side from the tunnel on the bank side.
The reason why they did not withdraw directly to the Sihang Warehouse was to make the Japanese troops misunderstand that they would have a large number of troops hiding on the side of the bank.
Then they lured the Japanese army into dispatching a large number of troops to launch an attack on the bank. Then, after the Japanese army entered the bank, they could detonate the explosives inside and kill all the Japanese soldiers who entered.
The position of the 29th Japanese Infantry Brigade,
The brigade commander, Major General Kanichiro Ueno, had already left their headquarters with a group of Japanese officers early.
Arrive at the front line and conduct reconnaissance.
"Baga Yalu! Damn the China Army!"
"Why do they have so many mortars?"
"How much weapons and equipment have been left by the German Arms Division troops in this Sixings Warehouse, and how many weapons and equipment are there for the troops staying here?"
"The heavy firepower weapons and equipment they are currently equipped with are not at all the configurations of the China Army that we encountered before. Just these dozens of mortars alone are definitely more than the weapons and equipment of a reinforced regiment!
"
"Let the intelligence department find out how many Chinese troops are hidden in the Sihang Warehouse!"
"We are fighting with them now, and we will never allow their details to exceed our guess! Otherwise, this battle will not be easy at all!"
"Also, ask the 18th Regiment to give me all the mortars and grenades for counterattack!"
"These Chinese troops must know that our imperial army is not easy to fight against, especially since they dare to be so blatant and come out of the perimeter of Sihang Warehouse to fight with us. This is simply asking for death!"
"The Sihang Warehouse has strong defensive walls. Our ordinary guns and artillery are not lethal to them, but outside the perimeter of the Sihang Warehouse, that is our world!"
"Blow up all the Chinese troops who dare to come out to provoke us!"
"Also, prepare an elite force to capture the bank immediately after taking care of the Chinese troops on the periphery. I saw that quite a few Chinese troops have already fled in!"
"We may need relatively large heavy firepower weapons and equipment to attack the Sihang Warehouse, but we don't need much heavy firepower weapons and equipment to attack the bank next to the Sihang Warehouse!"
"Let the commander, Major Tetsuo Ito, command the troops well and take down the bank!"
"Otherwise, the face of our imperial army will be completely lost by the 18th Regiment commanded by him!"
"The troops of our Third Division are all the most elite troops, and they will never be allowed to be delayed for so long by such a small Chinese army!"
"If those damn foreigners hadn't allowed us to use heavy artillery and bombing, and the aviation force to conduct air strikes, they would all be dead! Dead!"
"And it was wiped out by our imperial army in a short period of time!"
After the brigade commander, Major General Kanichiro Ueno, saw the first round of exploratory attacks and felt that it was very unfavorable to his side, he was also very unhappy and said to the Japanese officers and order officers around him.
"Hai!"
The Japanese messenger officer quickly nodded and bowed in agreement.
Soon afterwards, Major Tetsuo Ito of the 18th Japanese Infantry Regiment received a strict combat order from the brigade commander, Major General Kanichiro Ueno.
In fact, at this time, his complexion and mood were also very ugly.
Although it is only a preliminary tentative attack,
But he still allowed his troops to suffer dozens of Japanese casualties in one fell swoop.
Although for him as the captain of the team, this is not a big amount.
But now it is not an ordinary war in peacetime, but it is being watched and paid attention to by all the major powers, and even all the journalists from the Japanese army.
Under such circumstances, once their troops failed in combat, they would lose the Japanese army's face overseas.
So for such a shame, if Major Tetsuo Ito of the 18th Infantry Regiment of the Japanese Army is good, then damn it.
"Bagaya road!"
"Get the most elite troops in the regiment ready for me! Follow my orders, and within an hour, capture the bank on the other side of the Sihang Warehouse and kill all the Chinese troops who evacuated in!"
"In addition, lock all the mortars and grenade launchers of the entire regiment and aim them at the Chinese Army positions on the opposite side. I want all the Chinese Army who dare to come out to fight on the periphery to be blown up to death!"
"Bagayalu! Get ready for battle right away!"
Immediately, Major Tetsuo Ito gave a combat order with a gloomy look on his face.
