War of Resistance

Chapter 683 Lanfeng War (33)

What Song Xilian never expected was that Long Muhan really wanted to learn from Han Fuqu, and he couldn't run so fast.

What everyone in the No. 80 Eighth Division didn't expect was that after receiving the order from the military seat, Master Long actually ignored it, and even ordered the troops to speed up the retreat to the west.

"Master, if we retreat like this, aren't we afraid of being held accountable?" the chief of staff asked Long Muhan.

I saw that in the dark night, Long Muhan straightened his thin face and sneered: "It's a joke, how can we pursue it? Just rely on Song Xilian? We are both students of the first phase of Whampoa, so I don't believe him." Can you kill me?"

"It's ok... Teacher, I've heard that he shot Sun Yuanliang and Master Sun at the beginning. He shot them all. And he fired in front of the team directly under the 88th Division in Nanjing City," the staff officer said. Chang's face sank slightly.

"So what? Let's withdraw first!" Long Muhan had already made his decision, so he didn't want to change it easily.

Seeing that the persuasive persuasion was fruitless, the chief of staff simply stopped persuading him and just let him do what he wanted: "Yes. You are the officer. You make the decision, and I will obey it."

……

Looking at Lan Fengcheng, the gunshots had already started.

Countless bullets shot from the direction of the Japanese army towards the city wall, hit the bluestone wall, and then burst into flames.

Of course, the national army is not to be outdone. This is the second round of fire suppression after the first round of raids.

Six heavy machine guns, plus a dozen light machine guns, and seventy to eighty rifles, such a powerful firepower configuration, made the national army take advantage of the first round of confrontation—the Japanese army In the first round of confrontation, he was caught off guard, and nearly 70 soldiers were knocked down!

More than 70 soldiers, this is only the first wave of shooting!
But don't forget that the torches of those orders are the most eye-catching targets. As long as they hit the places where the torches are lit, they will always gain something.

Later, these little devils learned to be smart, directly threw down the torches, and then shot at the places where the fire was shining on the city wall.

Crackling gunshots sounded for a long time, but there was no explosion.

In addition to the objective reason that the Japanese artillery positions have not been set up yet, there is also the fact that the Japanese infantry did not get close to the city wall at all.

Since they were not close to the city wall, things like grenades and grenades probably had no effect.

"Quick! Quick! Quick! Pull apart the skirmishing line, don't gather together!!" The Japanese frontline commander Yamamoto Xingzhi yelled. In the battles that entered Henan, the casualties of the Japanese army were naturally very heavy. Yes, many of them were killed in battle, such as Lieutenant and Major.

People with the rank of Dazuo basically belong to the elite of the elite, and have relatively rich command experience, etc. If the situation is not particularly urgent, they basically will not send Dazuo to take command of small battles.

"Your Excellency Major, the troops in front of us have already suffered heavy casualties, and the enemy's firepower is very fierce. Is it necessary for us to apply for fire support or tactical guidance from the brigade commander?!" A Japanese captain ran over and reported to Yamamoto Xingzhi road.

I saw Xingzhi Yamamoto shook his head and said, "Maybe we can hold on a little longer! Now the artillery units in the rear are already preparing!"

"Hay!" The Japanese captain responded, and then hurried to command the frontline troops to continue the offensive.

Xingzhi Yamamoto looked at the back of the captain leaving, but his face became slightly gloomy: Now is this period, where will the brigade headquarters send you reinforcements?Even if you are defeated or killed in battle, you need to bear it silently.

The plan of the brigade department cannot be disrupted.Yamamoto Yukito murmured something in his heart.

However, what is the plan of the No. 20 Eighth Brigade of the Japanese Army?

The camera goes back to 10 minutes ago.

At this time, groups of Japanese soldiers ran past in front of them, but Takashi Sakai's command vehicle stopped beside the road, and a young Japanese officer with the rank of Major stood in front of him.

Takashi Sakai looked very dignified. He looked at Yukichi Yamamoto and said: "Mr. Yamamoto, listen carefully. Now our army has suffered heavy casualties, but we need your army to serve as the vanguard. No matter what is the situation in Lanfeng County, You, the army, must complete the test mission. For the survival of my brigade, win a chance!"

"Hay! If you have any request, please ask the head of the brigade to make it clear! As long as Yamamoto can do it, he will never refuse! Be loyal to the emperor!" Yamamoto Xingzhi also said very seriously.

"Earlier, there was information that the large forces of the Chinese Army had left Lanfeng. This is a good opportunity for us. If we can win Lanfeng, then our troops can rely on Lanfeng County to come We have resisted the attack of the Chinese army. We are waiting for the arrival of our reinforcements!" Takashi Sakai said seriously, but a trace of worry flashed imperceptibly in his eyes.

For Takashi Sakai, this Lanfeng County may be their best chance.

If Yang Guji had more than 4000 infantry combat troops before the surprise attack, they would still be able to fight.

But this battle of Yang Guji almost cost them nearly 600 people, and they also left some troops to carry out the rear.

This made Takashi Sakai's already "restricted" life suddenly become overwhelmed.

Therefore, Takashi Sakai could only take a risk.

"I absolutely obey orders! I am a warrior of the empire, and I will never back down!" Yamamoto Kotomo assured.

"Listen, this time, I want you to take a dissatisfied brigade, about 600 people, to Lanfeng County. No matter how powerful our enemy is, you must hold on! This is my duty to you. The only request!" Takashi Sakai said very seriously.

"Hay!" Yamamoto Xingzhi responded very solemnly.

However, after Yamamoto Xingzhi took the order and left, he didn't know that His Excellency, the brigade commander, had prepared an elite force. Their goal was to attack the North Gate!
In Sakai Takashi's view, Yamamoto Xingzhi's army was a feint.

But the real direction of attack is at the north gate!

If you want to ask why Sakai Takashi has such courage, it can only be said to be his crazy gambler mentality-he is betting that the news that the Chinese army has withdrawn from Lanfeng in large numbers is absolutely true!
A large number of Chinese troops have withdrawn from Lanfeng. Even if Lanfeng has troops, there are definitely not many left.

Ever since, Takashi Sakai gambled on this intuition-as long as Xingzhi Yamamoto's troops are still attacking desperately, they will be able to attract the few remaining Chinese troops in Lanfeng City to Ximen. The gate is empty of defense.

Only in this way can Takashi Sakai win the control of Lanfeng County as quickly as possible!

PS: Originally there were two updates today.

But I was too tired, too sleepy, and I couldn't bear it anymore. During this period of time, I almost lost seven or eight catties. If I continue to lose weight like this, my body probably won't be able to bear it!

So, there is only one update today, I am going to bed, good night, fellow book lovers!
