"Send a report to the Front Army Command, requesting reinforcements."
"Hi."
The major said respectfully.
In the morning, 99:[-] sharp.
Outside the city of Zhengzhou, the vanguard of the 26th Army was less than ten miles away from the gate of the city.
All the soldiers got out of the vehicles, changed their formation on the spot, and advanced forward in a tactical formation.
A jeep suddenly drove into the front.
"Brigade Commander Sun."
A major staff officer stopped the brigade commander of the 133rd brigade in the vanguard.
"The military department ordered that after your troops arrive outside the city, don't rush to launch an attack, build simple fortifications on the spot, and wait for the large troops to come up before launching an attack."
"understood."
Brigadier Sun looked at the faintly visible city head in the distance, and a sense of pride rose in his heart.
26军乃是王牌中的王牌,他的133旅是26军的王牌,此番作战,军部仍以他的133旅为先头部队,这是133旅全体官兵的荣誉,也是他个人的荣誉.
For this hard-won honor, he has made the determination to die for his country.
"Brigade, stop advancing, build fortifications 285 on the spot, and immediately go to the right to build artillery positions."
"Look for a favorable position, send flag commanders, and guide our fighter planes to complete the bombing of Zhengzhou City."
Chapter 443 Ace Army, Attack
Doi,...yuan came out of the headquarters, and saw bombers roaring over the gloomy sky.
"Your Excellency, Commander, you are a bomber of the Chinese Army."
The Major's voice just fell.
A shell landed on the compound of the command headquarters, and there was a bang, and the waves created by the explosion of the shell threw Doi, Yuan, Shao Zuo and other officers not far away into the air.
"Your Excellency, Head of the Protection Division."
The major roared, and several junior officers dragged Doi,... Yuan from the ground, and dragged them into the headquarters hall.
Doi...was only stunned for a short time. After a while, he woke up leisurely under the shouts of the officers.
"Your Excellency, Commander, the fighter planes of the Chinese army frequently bombed the city and our troops on the top of the city suffered heavy losses, and half of the city's fortifications were destroyed."
The major was busy reporting the military situation.
Doi...Yuan was stunned for a moment, then gradually came to his senses, and hurriedly asked, "Did the Chinese army attack?"
"Their infantry are building fortifications outside the city. Large troops are arriving one after another. It is estimated that the Chinese army will start attacking the city in a short time."
Shao Zuo said.
"Which army of Zhina Liang Xiao is outside the city?"
Doi,... Yuan asked.
“看旗帜应该是支那No.20六集团军下属No.20六军,该军乃是京沪杭地区的王牌军,也是支那名将梁萧的嫡系部队,该军在淞沪战场一战成名,先后参加过大小战役20多次,金陵战役,沪上战役,吴松口战役,万家岭战役等等...,都是该军的成名经典战役,该军战斗力之强,乃支那国军之一流,万家岭战役期间,该军一举歼灭106师团,活捉106师团指挥部所有军官,名声大噪,有常胜军的赞誉.”
Shao Zuo introduced.
"26 Army"
Tu Fei,... the original eight-legged mustache flashed a smile: "Yaoxi, very good, the 26th Army, the ace army of Liang Xiao's direct descendants, wiped out this ace army, and broke the fantasy of the Chinese people. service."
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, with all due respect, our army's current strength and combat effectiveness cannot compete with the No. 20 Sixth Army. We should call the Front Army Command for reinforcements."
Shao Zuo said.
"It doesn't have to be."
Tu Fei,...Yuan waved his big hand and said, "Send the order down, attack."
"Hi."
Shao Zuo didn't dare to say more, in the highly hierarchical army, the orders of the superiors are not allowed to be questioned by the subordinates.
......Outside the city.
No.20 Zhou Shiji, the commander of the Sixth Army, stood outside, holding a telescope to inspect the Japanese firepower equipment at the gate of the city.
"Military seat, the group army headquarters has received a call. The enemy of the Japanese army in Kaifeng has been dispatched. We ordered our troops to launch an attack on Zhengzhou City immediately. The more aggressive the attack, the better."
The telegrapher reports.
"It seems that even the siege of the city has been saved. The little devils in Kaifeng were transferred out so easily and rushed to reincarnate."
Zhou Shiji muttered.
"Army seat, this is our 26th Army's first battle in the Central Plains, we must show off the prestige of our 26th Army, let the little devil see, the combat effectiveness of our 26th Army is not...they... ...Short-legged oriental devils can compare."
Chief of Staff Liu Quanyou said with a smile.
"The equipment of the little devils in the 106th Division is average, and it is the equipment of a regular division. Compared with the 26th Division in Wanjialing, they are much worse. Even the Tenth Army of Yanagawa Hirasuke in the Jinling Defense Battle is much worse. Even if they want to block the footsteps of our [-]th Army, it is just a dream."
There was arrogance in Zhou Shiji's eyes.
"You can be proud. Who doesn't know that our 26th Army is equipped with all German weapons. The military headquarters has mountain artillery, mortars, and infantry artillery. Each division also has their own artillery. The entire army has more than 3000 light and heavy machine guns. , basically a class is equipped with a machine gun, a submachine gun, and a 98 Mauser rifle. In terms of equipment, no one in the Central Army can compare with us. Fortunately, the chief is the proud student of the committee, otherwise, we would not be able to get it Such good equipment."
Chief of Staff Liu Quanyou laughed.
"You know shit."
Zhou Shiji was only restrained in front of Liang Xiao. In front of his subordinates, he always slapped the table and scolded his mother, even... the chief of staff, Liu Quanyou, was also often scolded, but the chief of staff also knew that he had such a bad temper , and do not compare with him.
"When we set off, I asked for some iron lumps from the chief. After a while, I let these iron lumps cover the infantry attacking the city, and notified the air force bombers to throw shells vigorously on the city. Within three hours, at three o'clock in the afternoon: 3: In the past, the flag of our 26th Army was to be planted on the top of the city.”
Zhou Shiji said proudly.
"Military seat, before the iron bumps attack, let's let the mountain artillery group feed the little devils some breakfast, and let them experience the artillery of our 26th army."
Chief of Staff Liu Quanyoudao.
"According to what you said, call the Shanpao position and order them to fire and blow up all the Japanese fortifications at the gate of Zhengzhou City."
Zhou Shiji said.
"I'll call the Shanpao position myself."
Chief of Staff Liu Quanyou left with a smile.
5 minute later.
A few kilometers away, I suddenly remembered the sound of swishing.
Immediately afterwards, a round of shells exploded at the gate of the city, like an earthquake, overwhelming mountains and seas, and the momentum was quite spectacular.
Intensive artillery shells hit the gate of the city, and the Japanese fortifications only persisted for a short while before they were destroyed by fierce artillery fire into ruins.
The mountain artillery troops bombarded the city gate continuously for more than 20 minutes, almost destroying even the city tower.
The cannonball stopped.
Under the cover of armored vehicles and tanks, the vanguard of the 26th Army began to attack.
On the top of the city, seeing that the national army had begun to attack, the Japanese army hurriedly pulled their infantry artillery up to the tower, aiming at the bottom for bombing.
The 26th Army under the city has rich experience in cooperating with infantry and tanks. Three people form a combat team, and they stand separately to cover the charge of tanks and armored vehicles.
The [-]nd infantry artillery of the Japanese army was quite powerful in close combat. After a few volleys were fired, a section of the track of a tank was blown off, and it was paralyzed on the spot.
at this time.
The mountain artillery position of the national army fired again, aiming at the heavy rain of shells on the tower. Fry to the sky.
The [-]nd infantry artillery of the Japanese army was damaged, and the light and heavy machine guns opened fire immediately.
Below, the national army's offensive formation is very loose, most of the bullets hit the tanks and armored vehicles, and they couldn't hit the soldiers behind them at all.
Chapter 444 Red Flower Mountain, 66 Army Ambush
Honghua Mountain is famous for its safflower fruit.
There are safflower and fruit trees all over the mountains and plains.
These.........fruit trees belong to wild fruits. It is the beginning of June at this time, and the brightly colored fruits are hanging on the trees. When the sun shines down, they are bright red, which is very pleasing to the eye.
The two divisions of the No.60 Sixth Army were ambushing on the ridges on both sides of Honghua Mountain. The fruit trees on the mountain were luxuriant, and there was no abnormality at all below.
The remaining troops of the 66th Army were all in Xiaoyehe, ten miles away. Because they were carrying heavy equipment, it was inconvenient to come to Honghua Mountain for an ambush. Therefore, only two divisions participated in the ambush this time.
The composition of these two divisions is complex, with the Cantonese Army as the base of soldiers, the Whampoa soldiers as the backbone, and some officers of the special warfare division are also mixed in.
Commander Sun Bingyuan is the commander of the Special Warfare Division, and is best at mountain warfare and blitzkrieg.
Therefore, he is good at laying ambushes.
"Junzuo, the two Japanese regiments coming out of Kaifeng are marching lightly, less than [-] kilometers away from Honghua Mountain."
Staff said.
"It seems that the 26th Army's offensive is very fierce. The little devils in Kaifeng dropped their heavy equipment and moved forward lightly. Presumably the enemy's [-]th Division gave them a death order. This shows that Zhengzhou is in danger."
Chief of Staff Feng Shi'an said.
"I know Zhou Shiji. He commands the ace army of the 26th Army. He is crazy. He is going crazy. The little devils in Zhengzhou may not last long. I hope this kid doesn't take Zhengzhou so quickly. Otherwise, he will come out of Kaifeng." If the devils in the city learn the news of the fall of Zhengzhou, they will definitely turn around and go back. In this way, our 66th Army will have to pay a heavy price for attacking Kaifeng."
Sun Bing said.
"The military seat makes sense. In my opinion, when the battle starts, we can let the armored vehicles surround us from behind and block the rear of the little devil's troops. In this way, the little devil who is advancing lightly is our 66th Army." The turtle in the urn in the pocket, we can eat whatever we want."
Chief of Staff Feng Shi'an laughed.
"Old Feng, this time the chief commander went north to fight, and we brought our 66th army with him, which shows that in the eyes of the chief commander, our 66th army is still his direct confidant, and our troops are now all replaced with all German equipment. It’s not much worse than his 26th Army, and when the fight starts, tell the two division commanders not to save ammunition, beat me hard, don’t take prisoners, just corpses.”
Sun Bingdao.
"Junzuo, just look at it. If his 26th Army can capture Zhengzhou, our 66th Army can capture Kaifeng. We will never lose to them."
Feng Shi'an said.
"This is the first battle of our 66th Army, we must show our momentum and let other national army troops see how we fight. His mother sees us and throws the great rivers and mountains to the little devils in vain. .”
Sun Bingdao.
"Military seat, if the generals in the first war zone hear this, they will only jointly impeach you, and then it will be difficult for the chief seat to be a man."
Feng Shi'an vaguely reminded Sun to let him be merciful, after all the generals of the group army are not easy to mess with, even Liang Xiao, the commander of the Beijing-Shanghai-Hangzhou Garrison, can't afford to mess with so many people.
"There are only people from our [-]th Army here, and people in the First War Zone can't hear it."
Sun Bing sneered: "When we conquer Zhengzhou and Kaifeng, people in the First War Zone will still have the face to impeach us."
"That's what I said, but we should be careful. After all, we are in the Central Plains now, and this area is under the jurisdiction of the Northern Bureau of the Military Intelligence Bureau. Unlike us in the Beijing-Shanghai-Hangzhou area, even if we say something wrong, the Southern Bureau will just stay open." Close your eyes, it's different here, before we set off, the chief officer has explained, let us just fight the war, don't say what we shouldn't say, don't think what we shouldn't think about."
Chief of Staff Feng Shi'an said.
"Stop nagging, just don't talk."
Sun Bing looked at the mountain road below with a binoculars, and said with a smile: "I asked the guards to bury a lot of explosives on the boulders on both sides of the mountain road, and after a while... the army among the devils came over and blew up the... mountain, it's so big When a mountain falls, the boulders in the valley alone can kill a large number of devils below."
"Military seat, isn't it too bloody? Now everyone is advocating humanitarianism. If you do this, if the chief finds out, he will definitely scold you for being too violent and bloody."
Feng Shi'an laughed.
"The boss wants me to do this, he said, as long as it's killing devils, it doesn't matter...
No matter what method, as long as it can be killed, even if it is... pulling a carload of dung to smoke the devil to death, it can be regarded as an effort for the war of resistance."
Sun Bing laughed.
"It's nonsense, the chief executive wouldn't say such a thing, it must have been fabricated by you again."
Feng Shian is a member of the Cantonese Army. He was able to stay as the chief of staff thanks to the recommendation of General Zhang Wenbai, who was also from the Baoding Clan. When General Zhang left Shanghai, he was recommended to the 26th Army as the chief of staff of the 66th Army. After the war, he was transferred to the garrison headquarters as a senior officer, which meant that his military power was emptied. With the recommendation of General Zhang, he was able to return to serve in the 66th Army.
Coming back this time, he is assisting Sun Bing, the military commander, as the chief of staff.
So in many things, he just turned a blind eye and closed his eyes. After all, Sun Bing is the chief confidant. He is a general of the Cantonese Army. It would be nice to have a place in the 66th Army.
"Order to go down, get ready, the devil's leading motorcycle scouting team is here."
