Chapter 202 Mine Array (Wish you all a Merry Christmas)
"After night, we can carry out beach landing operations, so now we still need to sail slowly in the open sea, so during this time, Your Excellency, Commander, you also need to take a good rest and recuperate your army troops!
"
"Especially since we suffered a despicable sneak attack by a submarine group with unknown origins yesterday, which resulted in a lot of casualties among the Imperial officers and soldiers, as well as military supplies, so we must rest and recuperate our troops before landing operations!"
After the commander, Lieutenant General Yanagawa Heisuke, finished speaking, the commander of the Japanese Fourth Fleet, Lieutenant General Hosoo Gokoro, also immediately interjected.
"Of course! Because my troops suffered a lot of casualties! This is also a shame for our Imperial Army!"
"We were attacked by a submarine group and died on the sea before we even landed. It's really abominable. Although I don't know which foreign country is assisting the Chinese army to attack us, I can be sure that this matter is absolutely
It will have something to do with the China Army!"
"So I will definitely use the blood of the Chinese army on the Jinshan Guard side to wash away the shame of our fallen warriors!"
"I want to command the troops to Nanjing City, the capital of the China Army, and capture it!"
"Only in this way can we avenge our fallen imperial warriors!"
In response to the reminder from Lieutenant General Xixuan Goshiro, the commander, Lieutenant General Yanagawa Heisuke, had cold eyes and stared at the distance where Jinshanwei was.
However, since their fleet is still quite far away from Jinshan Guard, it is still not possible to see it visually.
Even military telescopes cannot see it.
Therefore, the chief of staff who was always by his side was Major General Moritake Tanabe. After staring with military binoculars for a long time, he still found nothing.
Apart from the vast sea, there are only seagulls and some fish that can be seen, and there is no shadow of Jinshanwei.
"I believe that your Excellency, Commander, will be able to do what you said!"
"Then I won't bother you anymore. I will continue to deal with the navigation of the naval fleet, because I will never allow those damn submarine groups to sneak attack or escape again!"
"We, the Minister of the Navy, have already taken responsibility for this incident and will find out as soon as possible which foreign country colluded with the China Army to do it!"
"When the time comes, we will definitely make this foreign country pay a certain price!"
The commander, Lieutenant General Yanagawa Heisuke, responded in a very unhappy mood.
However, Lieutenant General Xixuan Wuzilang did not continue to speak, but turned and left.
When he left, he only showed a sarcastic smile, but it was fleeting.
not easy to notice,
"The tone of this naval commander is really not very good. His tone is very provocative!"
"Although he was reminding us on the surface, I felt like he was laughing at us!"
"If their naval fleet hadn't been so cowardly, it wouldn't have caused our Imperial Army to lose so much military supplies and suffer heavy casualties!"
"Even if the base camp provides us with supplies, it's too late now, it will take time!"
After Lieutenant General Xixuan Wuzi has completely left,
The chief of staff, Major General Moritake Tanabe, said very dissatisfied.
"Well! Don't worry about him!"
"As long as we capture Nanjing, the capital of the China Army, no one in the world will dare to laugh at our power!"
"As for these naval generals, I don't take them seriously at all!"
"What's more, our relationship has not been very good!"
After listening to the chief of staff's complaints about Major General Moritake Tanabe, the commander waved his hand to Lieutenant General Yanagawa Heisuke, indicating that he didn't have to worry about going on the road.
"Hai!"
The chief of staff, Major General Moritake Tanabe, nodded and said nothing, waiting for the commander, Lieutenant General Yanagawa Heisuke, to continue.
But the commander, Lieutenant General Yanagawa Heisuke, remained silent.
He didn't say anything, but he just raised his military binoculars to observe the surrounding seascape, thinking deeply.
When night falls on the earth,
The Japanese Fourth Fleet has also arrived in the offshore area of Jinshanwei.
"We still have to wait until the high water level rises after 2 o'clock in the morning before we can carry out landing operations, and we need to carry out landing operations in batches!"
"Because the coastline here is not very wide, we can only use landing boats and landing craft to send the marines one by one to the beach closest to the coast for landing operations!"
"It's really a waste of time, so once the landing is successful, all the Chinese troops in Jinshan Guard will be left alone, including the Chinese people in the villages around Jinshan Guard!"
"Also, contact our intelligence agents at Jinshan Guard to find out what the current situation is like there!"
The sea is covered with fog and the waves are calm.
In the night sky, there are no stars, only mist.
The commander, Lieutenant General Yanagawa Heisuke, once again appeared on the deck of the flagship battleship "Kashima". He held up a military telescope and looked at Kanayama Guards in the distance for a moment.
He then issued combat orders to the chief of staff beside him, Major General Moritake Tanabe, and the Japanese officers.
"Hai!"
"Hai!"
All the Japanese officers quickly agreed in unison.
Immediately, everyone was ordered to go and carry out the eve arrangements for the beach landing operation.
So all the Japanese officers and soldiers of the 10th Army became nervous.
Of course, there are also those who are excited and want to make more achievements in battle to get promoted.
But there are also many Japs who are anxious and miss their hometown.
In short, all expressions of life are reflected in the faces of these Japanese soldiers who are about to land for battle.
When the time finally reached after 1 o'clock in the morning,
The Japanese Fourth Fleet also began to approach the Jinshanwei area.
During the day, they had also dispatched the aviation force to conduct air strikes on the defensive positions and villages in the Jinshan Guard area, including Jinshan Guard's bunkers.
When the Japanese officers and soldiers were hoisted off the landing craft and boats one after another, they were very busy and felt a bit busy, because the landing craft and boats had a sense of balance in the sea water that was completely different from that of ships and merchant ships.
smooth.
So when people were released from the merchant ship, they were always rocking back and forth.
But in the end, the Japanese's first batch of landing troops were successfully put on the landing craft and boats.
"Hey! Tonight is the occasion for us to make great achievements, so all the warriors, cheer me up and go all out to make the landing successful. We will kill all the Chinese troops in Jinshan Guard without leaving a single piece of armor behind.
!”
"As long as we land successfully, we will become the heroes of the empire!"
"So let's go!"
"Warriors of the Empire!"
When the first batch of Japanese soldiers were all transferred to the landing craft and boats,
The respective Japanese commanding officers softly spoke their own morale-boosting speeches.
"Hai!"
"Hai!"
"Hai!"
All the Japs immediately agreed softly.
So they held their breath and began to sail quietly towards Jinshan Guard in the landing craft and boats.
It's just that what these Japanese officers and soldiers couldn't even dream of was that before they had sailed far,
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
One explosion after another, explosions continued to occur at the landing craft and boats of the first batch of Japanese soldiers who were conducting landing operations.
"Hiss! Baga Yalu! It's a mine! These damn China troops actually deployed a large number of mines here!"
"Everyone, don't continue to move forward, retreat quickly! We must let the minesweepers deal with the mine array here!"
"But we have entered the mine array now, what should we do? It is also dangerous to retreat. Yamada-kun, Tanaka-kun and others were bombed and sunk when they retreated, and the landing craft and the people sank together!"
"Bagaya Road! Then stop everything where you are, don't move, notify our fleet immediately, tell the Commander, that there are many mines here, and many of our warriors have entered the mine position and cannot get out.
, let them immediately send minesweepers and minesweeper troops to come and rescue us!"
Amidst the continuous explosions and the miserable howls of the Japanese,
The Japanese officers who also led their troops into the minefield also looked very bad and shouted loudly to command the Japanese soldiers who had lost their composure.
