Chapter 323 The artillery units of two divisions were bombed
After seeing that the forward troops of the Japanese Sixth Division were ready to attack,
He Feiyang, who had been in the Purple Mountain area to receive information on the battle situation on the front line, immediately dispatched his flying troops to blow up the Japanese artillery troops who were once again preparing for follow-up artillery bombing.
Because of the first round of Japanese artillery bombing, many Nationalist officers and soldiers of the 74th Army in the Chunhua Town and Niushou Mountains were killed and wounded, and even some of the Sichuan Army troops dispatched by Liu Xiang to He Feiyang were killed.
There were casualties from the bombing.
Therefore, in order to prevent the artillery units of the two Japanese division groups from uniting again to carry out violent and lethal artillery coverage bombing, He Feiyang must get rid of the artillery units of these incoming Japanese units and make them without heavy firepower.
Weaponry of the toothless tiger,
Then the next battle will be much fairer.
As for the national army, they don't have to suffer so many casualties. At most, they will engage in fierce street fighting and fighting in the mountains and forests.
As long as the Japs are allowed to fight without heavy firepower weapons and equipment, the battle between the two armies will be much less stressful.
Japanese Sixth Division,
The division commander, Lieutenant General Hisao Tani, and the chief of staff, Colonel Shimono Ichiho, once again held up their military telescopes and observed the battle situation after the front-line artillery fire covered the bombing.
When they saw that the National Army and the Sichuan Army had suffered many casualties on the front lines in Niushou Mountain and Chunhua Town, they all smiled happily.
I feel very comfortable,
"Yo Xi! Yo Xi! I have told you that these Chinese troops have no ability to withstand the artillery fire of our two divisions. Moreover, I am personally in charge of the artillery troops of the division on our side. So,
bombing!"
"It seems that this time we attack Niushou Mountain and Chunhua Town, which are held by the Chinese Army, and we can completely capture them in less than two hours!"
"Your Excellency, Division Commander!"
Looking at the Niushou Mountain and the front lines in Chunhua Town, there was gunpowder smoke everywhere, casualties of Nationalist officers and soldiers, and bombed and destroyed defense fortifications.
And Chief of Staff Shimoichi Huo Dazuo, who had supervised the completion of the first round of artillery bombardment, immediately became full of arrogance and said with a confident smile.
"Hahaha! That's of course. We are the most powerful combat force, not the 16th Division and the other divisions behind us!"
"Except for the combat effectiveness of the Third Division, I have yet to admit that there is another division that can fight as bravely as us!"
"Of course, our powerful combat effectiveness is not comparable to that of other divisions!"
As the confident and arrogant laughter of Chief of Staff Shimono Dazuo fell,
The division commander, Lieutenant General Hisao Tani, was also in a good mood and laughed heartily.
"Your Excellency, Division Commander! You are so right!"
"Now, it's time for our Imperial Army to launch an attack. I believe we will soon be able to put our Empire's military flag on the Niushou Mountain and the Chinese Army positions in the Chunhua Town area!"
Chief of Staff Shimoichi Huo Dazuo quickly flattered.
"Yo Xi! That's for sure!"
"Okay! Let's take a look at the offensive situation of our troops now!"
"All tanks and combat vehicles have been dispatched to the front line for combat!"
"I hope that our troops can defeat all the Chinese troops blocking them within an hour and capture everything here, because my goal is to be the first imperial troop to enter the capital where the Chinese troops are holding, and take our first
The military flags of the Sixth Division are placed on every building and street there!!"
"And our Sixth Division will also become the most glorious army in the empire because of such a record, and will be recorded in the history of our empire!"
After being flattered and echoed by Chief of Staff Shimoichi Huo Dazuo, the division commander Lieutenant General Hisao Tani immediately became inflated and felt that he was invincible and arrogant to all.
For him, it is simply a piece of cake to defeat the national and Sichuan troops who are defending Niushou Mountain and Chunhua Town.
He simply ignored the stubborn resistance of the national army.
He believed that as long as his infantry troops, accompanied by the charge of a large number of Imperial tanks and chariots, would be able to easily capture all fronts and achieve the final victory.
As for the combat effectiveness of the national army, it is a joke to him.
You must know that since the Battle of Songhu, the Japanese army has become stronger and stronger, while the national army has become more and more demoralized and defeated.
Even the strength of a regiment under his command dared to pursue and attack two divisions of the national army.
Moreover, the two national army divisions were beaten until they fled without even any decent resistance.
It is also because of this,
This led to the fact that the division commander, Lieutenant General Hisao Tani, and the chief of staff, Colonel Shimono Ichiho, as well as the senior generals of various Japanese troops, were all equally arrogant and looked down upon the combat effectiveness of all national troops.
But just when the division commander, Lieutenant General Hisao Tani, and the chief of staff, Colonel Shimono Ichihuo, were planning to fully occupy Niushou Mountain and Chunhua Town within an hour,
He Feiyang dispatched the flying troops to attack again, and they were also on their way here.
And at this time,
Japanese 16th Division,
Lieutenant General Nakajima Imago, the commander of the 16th Division, and Colonel Kishiida, the chief of staff of the 16th Division, also held military binoculars. On a high ground behind the Sixth Division, they stood in front of a group of guards.
Under the escort, they were observing the battle situation on the front line.
"Yo Xi! It seems that the artillery troops we dispatched coordinated with the artillery troops of the Sixth Division to conduct a carpet-type artillery fire coverage attack. It was very successful. I have seen that the Chinese Army suffered a lot of casualties!"
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, should we also take the opportunity to dispatch troops to encircle and suppress the Niushou Mountain and the Chinese Army on the front line in Chunhua Town, so as to regain some achievements? Make some achievements?"
"Otherwise, I feel that we will lose money, because we provide free artillery support for the operation and let the Sixth Division perform meritorious service! And we get no credit at all!"
"That's not fair!"
After seeing the good results of the artillery bombardment on his side,
Colonel Kishiida, Chief of Staff of the 16th Division, also suggested.
He was a little jealous that the Sixth Division had taken away all the credit for their assistance in the artillery operations, so he reluctantly made a proposal to the division commander, Lieutenant General Nakajima Imago.
"Well! It depends!"
"Let's first take a look at the results of the Sixth Division's infantry and tank troops' offensive!"
"Although we all know that the final victory will definitely belong to our imperial army!"
"This is something beyond doubt. Just like we attack cities and occupy territory along the way, we will be the final winners!"
Lieutenant General Nakajima Kongo, the division commander, nodded in agreement.
"Hai!"
Chief of Staff Colonel Kishiida also nodded in agreement.
Then the two of them raised their military binoculars again and continued to observe the battle situation on the front line.
Be prepared to send troops to attack at any time and strive for some achievements to make achievements.
