Yamamura Haruo thought that he paid enough attention to Rao Guohua, but he obviously still underestimated him. In other words, he did not expect that the scouts of the Xuebing Army would be so capable. Their every move was actually monitored. , attaches great importance to the role of reconnaissance vanguards. This originally originated from Ouyang Yun's love for special forces. Since the establishment of Langya, it has become a nightmare for the Japanese. The military officers of the Xuebing Army are deeply touched by the role of Langya. So they also began to form similar units in their own troops, and the scouts became the embodiment of this concept,
Twenty minutes later, the security team boarded the south bank smoothly. Yamamura Haruo couldn't calm down and immediately ordered the entire army to go to the ferry. For tonight's ferry, Yamamura had made sufficient preparations. The fishing boats collected alone were enough. There are as many as four to five hundred fishing boats. Such a large number of fishing boats is enough for him to carry all the more than 6,000 infantrymen of his headquarters there at once. As long as these 6,000 people can successfully board the south bank, then the Xuebing Army will definitely be defeated if it wants to regain Madang. More difficult than ever,
"The Japanese army began to board the ship. The number is about 5,000. Yes, they are all gathered in the No. 3 river section now." The scout's voice rang in Rao Guohua's ears. He stood up suddenly and picked up another microphone. The voice said: "Tu Bo, start."
On the artillery position, Tu Bo had been waiting for a long time. After hearing this, he immediately picked up a loudspeaker and shouted: "Brothers, fire."
The artillerymen had already been in their positions, and the shells had been stuffed into the barrels. Before he finished shouting, the impatient trainee had already pressed the firing button. Then, a ball of fire suddenly bloomed in the dark night, and then a ball of fire rose into the sky. It rose up and flew towards the boarding ground of the 13th Independent Brigade of the Japanese Army. This shell was like a signal. The sound of "duh duh" was heard, and the bursts of fire made the night sky above the artillery position red. Suddenly, one fireball after another rushed in the same direction. Wherever it passed, the night sky was blood red.
Haruo Yamamura stood on the embankment, looking at his watch from time to time with a flashlight, and kept urging: "Hurry up, hurry up, speed." Suddenly, he looked up to the southwest with a clear conscience, and then heard a dull sound. His face changed drastically when the cannon was fired, "Eight grids." He felt that his heart suddenly fell into the ice hole, and then he shouted heartbreakingly: "Stop boarding the ship, lie down and hide." At this time, it was finally The Japanese who boarded the boat first had already begun to cross the river. Because the wind was blowing from the northwest, they first heard the screams of the mountain village and then heard the sound of cannon fire. When they looked up, the fireball flying in the sky had already reached There were hundreds of them, and the nearest one had emitted a sky-piercing scream,
For the Japanese soldiers, there is no sound that frightens them more than this scream at this moment. The Japanese soldiers panicked and shouted: "Artillery attack." "The Chinese are firing at us." "Quick, hurry up. Row back." "It's over, it's over..." The shelling came too suddenly, and because the security group in front had successfully crossed the river, their once tense heartstrings had been completely relaxed. As a result, this round of shelling The psychological impact of the attack on them became even greater.
A shell fell on the river, flames burst out, and a "rumbling" explosion sounded. A fishing boat was overturned by the huge waves caused by the explosion. More than 20 Japanese soldiers were shot dead by shrapnel on the spot. Before they died, they let out a shrill scream. Others screamed and fell into the river. They were immediately shivering from the cold water. Many people lost their minds in fear and began to scream in panic.
Hundreds of artillery shells fell one after another, some directly hit the fishing boat, some hit the river, and some hit the crowd of Japanese at the boarding area. The fire spread into a sea, and explosions occurred one after another. The Japanese who were bombed Weeping for their fathers and mothers, those who were not hit by the explosion turned around and ran towards the embankment. Many people were knocked to the ground and were immediately trampled by countless pairs of feet. Their screams were blocked by the explosion, and many people were directly hit by the explosion. The living beings were trampled to death,
"Don't mess up, lie down, no, quickly lie down on the back of the river embankment." Shancun was still calm, but found that the Xuebing Army's artillery fire was too fierce, and realized that lying down on the river beach would mean being torn apart by artillery fire. His life was shattered, and he immediately ordered everyone to evacuate to the back of the river embankment. He was quite brave. In the face of the violent artillery fire, he ignored the dissuasion of his subordinates and stood in command. It was just because of the night that the effect of his command was not good. The exact geometry is debatable.
Suddenly, a scream came from far away, and he felt a shiver in his heart. Just as he was about to lie down, several men around him had pounced on him one after another, and then he felt a dazzling fire suddenly light up around him, and then his head hurt, and then he... lost consciousness,
This round of shelling lasted for more than forty minutes, and because there were scouts on the other side to help correct the ballistic trajectory, the accuracy of the attack was very high, causing nearly 4,000 casualties to the 13th Independent Brigade. Including those who were trampled to death and injured, the number of Japanese who finally left alive was less than 1,700.
Yamamura, who was not wearing a helmet, was hit by a shrapnel on his head. Although he was lucky enough to survive, he became an idiot from then on. This added a strange element to the Japanese retreat. When being carried away on a stretcher, the little Japanese sat on the stretcher and laughed. , fell on the ears of the Japanese soldiers who fled the No. 3 River Section like bereaved dogs, this laughter seemed to come from hell, making their hearts feel chilly, and their steps became faster.
Rao Guohua received the general report from the scouts on the other side, and his depressed mood finally eased a little. He knew that within a certain period of time, he could concentrate on thinking about the war without worrying about the reinforcements from the Japs.
Sawada Shigeru received the report a little later. The old Japanese sat there stupidly. The military coat on his shoulders fell to the ground without noticing. After Yamamura reported to him that he would cross the river tonight, he has been sitting in the office. Waiting, he originally fully expected to wait for good news, but what he expected in the end was such bad news.
Major General Sakurai Shozo, the chief of staff of the 13th Army, accompanied him to wait for the frontline battle report. Seeing this, he was a little worried. He stood up and walked behind him to help him pick up the general's coat and put it on again. He said softly: "Your Excellency, maybe we should give Nakamura Greater trust from the colonel."
Sawada Shigeru shook his head and said solemnly: "It seems that Madang is destined to be undefeated. Sakurai-kun, I have been dealing with the Chinese people in Hainan for a long time, and I have studied them quite a lot. When it comes to combat consciousness, The Chinese people are no worse than the imperial army. It seems that the base camp must be promoted to implement the Qinling Operation as soon as possible. I think this will be the only way for the empire to resolve the China incident."
This jump is a bit big, and other people can't understand it at all. Fortunately, as the chief of staff of the 13th Army, Sakurai has the right to know some relatively secret information. He still said softly: "Your Excellency, the Xuebing Army is really difficult to defeat. ?”
"It's really hard right now."
"But the empire's airborne troops are immature."
"You have to give it a try even if you are immature, and now is the best opportunity. As long as Nakamura and Uchiyama United can fight more resolutely in Madang, then this place will become the most concerned place for all Chinese people. At this time, the empire launches Qinling
In combat, it will be more effective as a surprise force. To deal with the student army, we can only use China to control China."
