The headquarters of the Tianjin Dispatched Army and the commander of the Japanese Army Tianjin Dispatched Army Shirakawa are furious in the war room.

"Baga, an alliance imperial soldier, can't even win a Chinese army position defended by a regiment. You are all rice buckets, and they are all the shame of the empire."

When speaking of anger, Shirakawa pulled out his army knife and scared the guards next to him to stop him. As a result, the commander-in-chief was chopped on the sand table placed in the middle, just to defend the Southwest Army. Left-wing position was slashed with a knife.

The conference room trembled and scared Zorton suddenly, and no one would have thought that His Excellency the Commander-in-Chief, who is known for his elegance in the weekdays, has become a different person today.

Even the heads of the three divisions did not dare to look up, especially the leader of the fourth division, Kazuo Ida, who was in charge of attacking the three regiments, stood alone with his team leader, Kozachi Chiba. Put your head down to the minimum. And Chiba Koichiro's face was red, swollen, and swollen, and it seemed that he had been cordially greeted by the head of the division, Mr. Putian.

Shirakawa seemed to be out of breath as he was forced by the anger, breathing heavily, and walked in front of the two men, Puta and Koichiro Chiba. "Do you have anything to say about the shame of your two imperial soldiers?"

After a fierce reprimand, as the commander in chief, he still needed to give two people an opportunity to explain. Of course, perhaps any explanation was useless, the key is to see their attitude.

"Report to the Commander-in-Chief, without any explanation, we will use the most noble courage of the Imperial soldiers to launch a decisive charge, and we will certainly win the left-wing position."

Lieutenant General Putian, commander of the sixth division commander, did not have the slightest timidity at this time, held his head high, slammed his salute, and shouted his answer almost in a roar.

The same is true of Kochiro Chiba next to him. The attack was defeated. The head of the sixth division regarded him as a shame. In order to maintain the strength of the entire team, he decisively ordered the retreat, and then looked for a fighter. The head of the regiment, Mr. Putian, slaps his eyes in public and bluntly disposes of his military law.

At this time, Chiba Koichiro, the leader of the alliance, understood that in the eyes of the head of the Sixth Division and the dispatched troops in Tianjin, it was unrealistic to choose any strategic retreat. Just as when in the Army Sergeant School, there were always two opposing factions in the school, one of which advocated the supremacy of attack, and the other advocated the strategic and tactical supremacy.

However, as a soldier, he was not afraid of death.

"My Excellency Commander-in-Chief, I have no explanation. Then I will personally lead the wing assault and launch a decisive assault."

Shirakawa nodded, didn't say anything, then walked back to his seat, picked up a document, and sighed inconspicuously, then thought up: "Now read the combat order issued by the military."

"Pop" neatly and stand upright.

"Order, the fourteenth division and the sixteenth division must break through the front and right-wing positions of the Kuomintang army before the afternoon of May 12th, and must defeat these two units and drive them into Peiping.

Order, the 6th Division, which lost the battle, must destroy the left-wing Chinese army in the Langfang position before 10 am on May 12th, and it must be wiped out or captured ... "

After the meeting, Shirakawa left Mr. Putian alone.

"For the general attack three days later, what are your thoughts? Listen here. This is not a conference room. Don't evade it." Few people know that Shirakawa Yoshita scolded the **** dog ​​that the husband Putian had scolded at the meeting. Mr. Putian is his student.

"Please be assured, Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief, Putian will surely win the left wing position, without any thought." Putian Yifu gave a slight pause, and still answered the same.

Shirakawa shook his head and picked up the combat telegram sent by the domestic military. For this battle in Tianjin, his commander-in-chief decided too little. The domestic military had almost all the rights, and The staff officers of the dispatching army command have even controlled the command of the battle.

"Putian, as a division head, you should have your own independent thinking. Although the entire empire highly praises His Excellency Nogaki Nobunori, but at our height, we should both acknowledge the supreme heroism of Nogun and recognize Then, blindly relying on brute force can't win the war. Wasn't the same true for Naimu then? "

"This ... Teacher, what do you mean?"

Shirakawa took a deep breath and said to the student who he liked very much at that time, "We naturally want to implement the order of the military, but we also have to see some problems in it.

Some key military officials in the country are worried about the military presence in southwest China, especially after they announced that they would go north to fight against Japan. Many military officials even suggested that they launch an early attack in southeast China and drag them northward. On the other hand, His Excellency Lu Xiangnan Jilang presented to the emperor, believing that military operations must be limited to north of North China, in order to prevent excessive stimulation of the Chinese Southwestern government.

This is why the orders received by the sending forces are inconsistent. From the first aggressive attack and occupation of Tianjin to the next Langfang attack, the performance was also extremely brave, once defeating two Chinese so-called main divisions.

Then, when there was exact information showing that Chiang Kai-shek was preparing to mobilize his army for a major battle, the country ordered that the offensive rhythm be temporarily suspended, resulting in the Chinese army, which could easily be wiped out, and escaped by chance. The military wants to do its best in a battle and use greater victories to gain a say in the country for some people. Therefore, the subsequent two divisions assembled without any effort and were ready to board the ship. The military plan is that the strength of the five divisions will completely defeat the 100,000 miscellaneous army of Chiang Kai-shek.

When the Chinese southwest government finally formed the 19th Route Army to go north, the military department ordered that a violent attack must be launched against the Southwest Regiment's station, testing their depth and destroying them.

According to the information I got from some friends in the military department in China, the military department wanted to test the fighting power of the Southwestern army, which was fascinated by the gods, and wanted to fight Zhang Shusheng by annihilating them quickly. After all, this area is the territory of Chiang Kai-shek. In their Chinese words, Zhang Shusheng's approach is to endure hardships and not to please the military. The Military Department believes that Zhang Shusheng is most likely to send troops for political purposes, not determined to resist Japan. The total elimination of this regiment is a form of follow-up. "

"That's the case. No wonder this battle has become strange since the rapid occupation of Tianjin. I didn't expect such a complicated situation inside, thank you for explaining." Mr. Putian is not a stupid person. The daytime battle has proved that this southwest The regiment is indeed well-equipped and can be said to be much better than the Imperial Army. "Teacher, I have also found that the Southwest Army is generally equipped with a fast-fire weapon between a hand-held pistol and a submachine gun. The amount is about 10 rounds, and it can fire at a very fast speed. Often the Imperial soldiers fire once, but they can fire two or three times. This is a terrible gap. In addition, their position has a strange artillery, both It can attack the sky and the ground. Of course, there is also a cannon that can be operated by a single soldier. The tail flame is like a fire dragon. I have never heard of such a weapon.

We will not talk about weapons. As long as there is enough money, the Chinese southwest warlord can also buy it from the West. However, what is most surprising is that their soldiers' training level is significantly stronger than that of Chiang Kai-shek's Chinese army. Compared with the Imperial army, it is not much different. "

Shirakawa nodded his head. He didn't know these things before. He didn't understand what happened until he sent a secret message to the military and informed him. "Today I will tell you something only for our division. Intermediate things. The military department actually conducted a deep exploration of the Chinese southwest early on. The results show that they not only established a modern industrial system in the past two decades, but also opened military schools and began training around 1916. Modern army. You also know the principal of their military academy, who used to study at the Imperial Army Sergeant Cai Cai.

In addition to modern military academies and modern military training, their modern industries have produced a series of advanced products, which are exported to Western countries. From cars to daily necessities, they produce everything. Although these products were hardly exported directly to the Empire, they were actually sold to the Empire by some Western merchants. Some imperial wealthy people in the Empire generally use these products with American or German labels in their homes, but they are actually products made in the southwest of the Chinese. Speaking of which, maybe you don't believe it. My wife just bought a washing machine last month. As a result, I found a few Chinese words 'Made in China' in the manual. "

"This ... Teacher, is it a Sakura brand washing machine?" Kazuo Puta was startled, suddenly remembering that a washing machine was also added to the house two months ago. His wife and daughter-in-law also felt very useful, saying that it greatly reduced family work. the amount.

"That's right." Shirakawa smiled bitterly. "Imperial products have fallen into a great dilemma in the Chinese market. Some of the spinning mills are constantly closing down. The products of Imperial are not sold in the richest southwestern China today, but also Commodities from countries such as Britain and France were excluded under the rule of the Nanjing National Government.

Relying on this powerful foreign trade, their strength is already very strong, and the trade of nearly two decades has armed them with a powerful army. Their main force has been generally equipped with a semi-automatic rifle named 'Chinese-style'. This new type of rifle between traditional rifles and assault rifles has not been equipped on a large scale even in western countries. It has too many advantages.

Moreover, their troops are already undergoing armored reforms, and the Air Force and the Navy have also made great progress. This can be seen from the British who can drive Hong Kong out. Not many, but all are elite. "

Mr. Putian was surprised, "Teacher, in this case, why haven't you heard of this information? The Chinese military strategy says that we know ourselves and we are victorious. How can we fight without knowing our opponents?"

"Some people in the Ministry of Military Affairs have withheld information and only a few people know it. Imagine that a so-called Chin, which has always been portrayed as a sick man in East Asia, will be greatly attacked by the authorities if it is recognized by the authorities as a powerful opponent. .

Some new recruits in the military department clamored to occupy the entire so-called Chinna. However, Her Majesty meant that the empire did not need southwest China, and the empire needed north of north China. Only by occupying the vast area north of North China can the empire develop in the long run. The entire armed forces are prepared for military use, and the military transport will last forever. "

"Thank you teacher for telling the students." At this time, Mr. Putian knew how powerful the battle between the high-ranking empire of the empire was, even the military headquarters, which looked like an iron plate, and had various voices. Only by invading China to gain benefits is their common goal.

"Oh, it does n’t matter the occasional loss. I know you very well about Jun Tian. When you are old, you have to learn a few words when you meet a former student.” Shirakawa Yoshi finally said the subject, “I think you also Seeing the short ribs of this Southwest Regiment, they lack artillery and lack of air power. Be brave to attack, I will mobilize more artillery and aircraft for you, of course, in order to satisfy some people in the military, to shape Yamato soul, and develop In the spirit of Bushido, Chiba Koichiro's decisive charge is still needed, and it may not be possible to achieve a direct victory. "

It was only then that Mr. Putian realized that some people in the military department still wanted to see the spirit of Bushido like that of His Excellency Nogi Noki. "Teacher rest assured, I will definitely win the Chinese left-wing position."

Until Mr. Putian left, Shirakawa stood still by the window. He felt that he might be really old. Just because Putian was his beloved student, did he tell him these things that should not be known to him? Maybe it's another reason. It was a long time before he sighed, "Some people are destined to sacrifice."

Langfang, the station of the Third Regiment of the Southwest Army.

During the daytime battle, the loss of the Third Regiment was not small. Dozens of wounded soldiers lived in the battlefield hospital. However, because the single-arm medical kit is very effective, the death rate of the injured soldier is very low, unless it is fatal or bleeding on the spot. Too much, basically saved his life, and only sent to the rear when his condition improved.

These people were basically injured when the Japanese shelled and the 45th Infantry of the 6th Division Commander launched the offensive. Although the battle loss ratio was very pleasing, they still made the three regiments feel hatred.

When dealing with the Japanese army in the front, the troops played well. It was not until the Japanese 45th wing of the Japanese army launched the offensive that they felt great pressure. At that time, the Japanese army gave up the final charge, and only fired at a distance with a third group of soldiers, using the number to make up for the gap in individual weapons.

However, overall, a great victory was achieved.

Today, in addition to assisting the two divisions in defending Langfang, the three regiments mainly wait for the arrival of the main force of the third division and allow officers and soldiers to accumulate more experience in combat with Japan for subsequent combat forces.

The heavily guarded regiment bunker ushered in an officer dressed in ordinary southwestern military uniforms. Judging from his rank, he was only a second lieutenant.

"Say salute to Dai Anlan, head of the three regiments."

"Special forces, He An."

Dai Anlan moved into the bunker's temporary office, and came to an unusual person, dressed in ordinary second lieutenant uniforms, but it was hard to imagine that he was a major general in the Southwest Army.

Dai Anlan has also been fascinated by the special forces of the Southwest. Unfortunately, he confessed that his ambition was not in the field of special forces operations. Otherwise, he might have decided to enter the Longya Special Forces Brigade or the Tiger Special Forces Brigade like some military academy students.

He An in front of him felt that he had no momentum of battlefield killing at all, and it was not like a soldier who had haunted the battlefield for a long time, but an ordinary person who had been dealing with flowers and plants for a long time.

Normally, even if the hat was removed, no one would think that the second lieutenant was fake. He An, in his thirties, looked even a little short, 167, with a thin face and a thin figure. No one would associate him with the captain of a special forces major general.

There are no soldiers in all battles. Dai Anlan suddenly thought of a sentence he had read, saying that if he can be repeatedly killed, he will be a soldier in World War I, a general in Ten Wars, and no soldiers in 100 Wars. He Already a soldier after sublimation.

Such soldiers are even more terrible. If it is a battlefield commander, such a famous historical person is enough to swarm the world and accomplish a great cause for the king. If they are soldiers, such people must be killing machines. On the battlefield, there is no such enemy.

As an officer of the special forces, one can imagine how horrible his combat power is.

"Because the main force of the Third Division has not yet arrived, the Military Department asked us to help the three regiments to block the Japanese's advance attack." In the last three sentences, even this kind of handover work is very concise.

Dai Anlan also knew the opponent's style and ability, so he turned on the lights on the head, walked to the map on the table, briefly introduced the fighting situation in the past few days, and also described the difficulties facing the third regiment Once again, in order to better conduct defensive operations, these issues need to be resolved. At this time, the arrival of special forces is really too timely.

"At present, the main difficulties we encounter are the Japanese artillery, which has caused us a lot of threats. A considerable number of casualties were caused by artillery. We lack the counterattack force. I do n’t know what Major General ’s troops are. Can I help you? "

"No problem ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ He An replied straightforwardly. When Dai Anlan analyzed and introduced him, he had already considered it quickly. These problems are the problem for the Third Regiment. In their special forces, It's just a daily training subject, and it's not a big problem. "Tomorrow you'd better launch a countercharge, so that the artillery experts under me can roughly determine where the Japanese artillery is. "

Dai Anlan nodded. As an excellent commander, of course he knew that the Japanese army hoarded the Langfang area step by step, and the special forces did not have so much time to detect and reconnaissance. While the Japanese army attacked Langfang with the strength of three divisions, the artillery unit was certainly not uniformly and centrally arranged. It was necessary to find key targets before it could operate.

"Tomorrow I will let a battalion's unit launch an anti-assault attack against the 45th Infantry of the 6th Division and induce Japanese artillery. The battalion leader of our three regiment artillery battalion is also an old artillery, and we can assist the special forces at that time Expert. "

"well."

The two agreed on a plan that the three regiments would launch an assault the next day to induce enemy artillery fire.

At dawn, the counterattack began. ()
