I thought I was the little scumbag who was pinned underground by me with a blaster, and I could do whatever I wanted.
In the end, the little scumbag threw a stone and hit himself black and blue. Seeing the extremely precious observation balloon become a free fall, Hisao Tani almost spit out a mouthful of blood.
The furious commander of the Sixth Division naturally knew how valuable this thing was, but it was accidentally damaged due to his own reasons. It is strange that Yanagawa Heisuke did not scold his eighteenth generation ancestor behind his back.
If you want to make up for it, you can only attack Songjiang City in one fell swoop to prove that you don't need to do so much work to deal with the Chinese, and that's it.
Hisao Tani, who actively mobilized troops and generals, had this confidence not only because of how powerful the Sixth Division was.
But Songjiang's seemingly hard walnut had its hard shell broken by the blows of large-caliber heavy artillery. All he had to do was break open the broken shells and eat the delicious walnut kernels.
Half an hour after the heavy artillery brigade's bombardment, it can be seen with the naked eye that the city wall surrounding Songjiang City that once seemed extremely strong and even towering now looks like a dead snake covered in bruises. Huge gaps can be seen everywhere, proving the power of the 240MM heavy artillery.
power.
Even the 30-meter-wide moat surrounding Songjiang City was cut off by artillery fire, and the river bed was even exposed in some places.
What only made the Japanese army scratch their heads was that the blasted river embankment released water into the wilderness. That was exactly where they needed to run and attack, turning it into a muddy land.
However, these small difficulties are minor in Hisao Tani's view. As long as the Chinese position is blown to pieces, what does it matter if the heroic Imperial Army is covered in mud?
Therefore, while the Kunisaki Detachment and the 114th Division in Xicheng District are still arguing over who can enter the neighborhood that has been destroyed by more than half, the Sixth Division in Dongcheng and Nancheng is already ready, waiting for the heavy artillery brigade's bombardment to end.
, the infantry followed the division's artillery fire and attacked Songjiang City.
To this end, Hisao Tani specially invited Major General Moritake Tanabe, the chief of staff of the Tenth Army Headquarters who came to supervise the front-line operations, to go with him to the front-line headquarters that he spent an afternoon building to observe the battle.
Moreover, Hisao Tani, who has always been arrogant, took the unprecedented step of personally riding a horse to greet the Major General Chief of Staff, who was one rank lower than himself.
"The war is currently going on, and I have to spare your busy schedule to receive him. Tanabe is terrified!" The Major General Chief of Staff of the 10th Army, who was riding a horse, saw Hisao Tani coming in person. Without the restraint of a superior, he jumped off his horse first.
, showing more humility in his words.
We can't blame Tanabe Moritake, the military-level chief of staff, for being such a scumbag. In fact, the Tenth Army headquarters was temporarily established and its presence was not strong. However, the three major regiments and a brigade-level detachment under the Tenth Army were.
Most of them are troops with great military exploits.
The Kunisaki Detachment is the main force of the 5th Division known as the 'Steel Army', the 18th Division is known as the 'Double Wall of the Empire', and the 6th Division has the reputation of 'black skin, bright red blood'.
Moreover, the short Lieutenant General division commander in front of him was difficult to get along with. He did not get what he wanted when holding military meetings. Even Lieutenant General Yanagawa Heisuke, the commander, would be criticized by him.
For such a lieutenant general in the army, he personally traveled five or six miles to greet his soy-bodied major general chief of staff. This was no longer a matter of giving face, it could even be said to be flattering.
Could it be that he is so handsome? This unrealistic thought even appeared in Tanabe Moritake's mind.
But soon, Major General Tanabe realized that he had really thought too much.
Hisashi Tani, who is a dog in nature, is not worthy of being a human son.
Soon after, the major general finally found out that it was because of this impatience that the tethered balloon used for reconnaissance was beaten into a rag by the Chinese anti-aircraft artillery. The major general and chief of staff found the answer. No wonder Hisao Tani was so polite. How dare you?
He did something stupid.
The Tenth Army came to the southeast this time, and they only brought two of these 'high-tech' troops with them. One of them had been lying in bed for a long time and was unusable, and the other one was still destroyed by him. So why did they look for Chinese artillery positions?
Are you staring with big eyes?
Hisao Tani just means that I have given you face, and you have to repay me. At least don't give me eye drops at the military headquarters.
I have to say that those who have managed to get to this point are very thoughtful. Even Hisao Tani, who you may think is headstrong and arrogant, and who should use tricks, will never be used because he can't save face.
Being able to go up or down, as long as you don't suffer a loss, such a person is actually more terrifying.
No wonder Hisao Tani looks down on the arrogant Major General Kunisaki. What's the use of just raising his chin to fight?
The frontline headquarters of the Sixth Division is about 1,000 meters away from the Songjiang City Wall, which is of course within the range of the Chinese defenders' artillery.
As the division commander, Hisao Tani came to such a close distance, so naturally he came to the front line in person, and came to boost the morale of the officers and soldiers of the Sixth Division who were about to engage in the offensive and defensive battle of the city.
‘The division commander is right behind us, and he wants to see us crush the Chinese positions with his own eyes!’ Is there anything else that could inspire the blood of those Japanese infantrymen who already hold steel guns more than this?
The Japanese infantrymen could only scream excitedly, but they did not know that the underground bunker where their division commander stayed on the front line was ordered by Hisao Tani to mobilize an engineering force of more than 100 people. It took a whole afternoon to rely on a native
The frontline headquarters built on the slope is so strong that even if ten 75-meter mountain artillery cannons are fired at it, it can still ensure his safety.
Pretending is a technical job, and if you want to pretend to look good but not be fooled, you really need enough wisdom. From this point of view, Hisao Tani can score at least 90 points.
Naturally, Tanabe Moritake knew this very well and accepted it happily.
If Hisao Tani's frontline command post is not strong enough, no matter how much face he is given, he will not accompany him to act foolishly.
His life is his own, mine is mine and not Hisao Tani’s! The Major General Chief of Staff, who also has a certain background, can tolerate the blushing of being retorted by Hisao Tani, but will not play with him in a game where he could lose his life at any time.
Now, it's very good. Even the people who come to the front line are pretending to be safe.
High-powered telescopes specially prepared for the two senior Japanese generals have also been prepared, which are enough for them to see clearly everything happening on the battlefield from a distance of 1,000 meters.
Without allowing the Major General Chief of Staff, who came to supervise the battle on behalf of Yanagawa Heisuke, to see clearly what happened on the battlefield, how could Hisao Tani show off the majesty of his subordinates with "black skin and bright red blood"?
The 60 large-caliber artillery pieces of the heavy artillery brigade threw a full 1,800 rounds of artillery shells at Songjiang City, almost plowing the entire Songjiang City with shrapnel and air waves.
Before the thick smoke had dissipated and the dilapidated Chinese city wall had not yet fully appeared in the eyes of the Japanese, the 48 artillery pieces of the artillery wing of the Sixth Division, which had been preparing for a long time, began shelling again.
The Sixth Division, which had been on truce for a whole day, finally waited for what Hisao Tani thought was the most suitable fighter plane.
Located at the forefront of Dongcheng District is the unit personally appointed by Hisao Tani, the 6th Infantry Brigade under the 13th Infantry Regiment of the 6th Division.
The reason why the Sixth Division is also called the Kumamoto Division is because the predecessor of the Sixth Division was the Kumamoto Town Station established in 1873. During the Southwest War, this unit was surrounded by the Satsuma Domain troops led by Saigo Takamori in Kumamoto.
Inside the city, they withstood Xixiang's tidal attack with strong will.
After World War I, the name of the Kumamoto soldiers' tenacity was resounding throughout the Japanese island. From then on, the Sixth Division used Kumamoto, Oita, and Kagoshima as its troop sources. Among them, the soldiers of the 13th Infantry Regiment were all from Kumamoto.
.
It can be said that the 13th Infantry Regiment is the foundation of the Sixth Division.
The Sixth Infantry Group under his command, perhaps with the same group number as the division number, was also exceptionally brave in combat and was highly appreciated by the generals of the Sixth Division.
Whenever he encountered a tough battle, Hisao Tani would fight with the Sixth Infantry Battalion, and the Sixth Infantry Battalion never failed to live up to Hisao Tani's love and always won the final victory.
On the North China battlefield, including the Battle of Baoding and the Battle of Yongding River, the 13th Infantry Regiment and the 6th Infantry Battalion were both brave and fearless.
Therefore, in order to show off the majesty of his Sixth Division, Hisao Tani no longer concealed himself as he did in the morning. When he made a move, he directly revealed the sharpest sword in his hand.
In Chinese words: Liang Jian! Oh, no, it’s Liang Jian!
The sharpest sword of the Sixth Division points at the broken city wall of Songjiang.
Before the sword arrived, the hairs of the Chinese defenders stood on end in the ruins.
The main reason is that the southeast wind is blowing and it’s a bit cool!…
