Chapter 236 The Emperor Isn't So Afraid of Death
Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang were emotional for a while, and then quickly ordered the troops to dig foxholes and build fortifications to prevent the Japanese army from attacking, but they were surprised that they did not see the Japanese army attacking them after waiting for more than an hour.
In fact, what the two of them didn't know was that the damage done to the Tenth Wing by this air strike had far exceeded their estimates.
Today Gao Hongming sent a total of 33 planes. Although the wave 2 planes were originally just a trainer plane, letting them bomb was purely to catch ducks on the shelves, but planes are planes, and no matter how bad each plane is, each plane can carry three One hundred kilograms of bombs, the bombs carried by the entire fleet are close to ten tons.
Especially the wave of napalm bombs dropped by the last six Bo-2s was a devastating weapon for the unsuspecting Japanese army. Any Japanese army stuck to the napalm bombs would lose their combat effectiveness even if they did not die.
According to the statistics of the Tenth Wing, in this bombing, the Tenth Wing lost more than 800 people, which is almost the strength of a brigade. In addition to the loss in the hand-to-hand battle with the Independent Regiment just now, this calculation, Their alliance has lost more than 300 people, and half of the alliance's strength is gone.
Such a heavy loss made Colonel Akashiba Yaezo feel so distressed that he almost vomited blood. Seeing the wounded soldiers howling everywhere after the bombing and the charred corpses everywhere, he had no choice but to give the division commander Sasaki a visit. A lieutenant general sent a telegram requesting tactical guidance.
As soon as Sasaki received the telegram, he was furious at first, and then became worried. At this time, the large troops of the Tenth Division were still hundreds of kilometers away from the Tenth Regiment, and there was no time to support them. In desperation, he could only Neng sent a telegram to the headquarters of the First Army, requesting the First Army to send troops to reinforce the Tenth Regiment.
"Your Excellency, Commander...the Tenth Division received a call. Their Tenth Regiment was stubbornly blocked by the Eighth Route Army in Xiaolongling. The incendiary bombs caused heavy losses to the Tenth Wing, requesting urgent tactical guidance."
When the telegram asking for help from the Tenth Regiment reached Yoshio Shinozuka, Yoshio Shinozuka was throwing a banquet in honor of Neiji Okamura, the commander of the Front Army who came from afar, accompanied by the Chief of Staff Naozaburo Okabe, Osamu Yamamoto, and Neiji Okamura brought Ichiro Miyamoto, the combat staff.
When the communication staff who rushed over finished reading the telegram for help, the originally pleasant atmosphere in the restaurant suddenly froze.
Shinozuka Yoshio felt dizzy when he received the telegram from the communications staff officer. He turned his head and asked Naozaburo Okabe beside him: "Okabe-kun, which is the nearest unit to Xiaolongling?"
Naozaburo Okabe thought for a while: "It is the 14th Regiment under the No.187 Brigade stationed in Dazhi County. It is about 20 kilometers away from Xiaolongling. If it is supported by a forced march, it is estimated that it will arrive in two hours. .”
Shinozuka Yoshio said without hesitation: "Immediately order the 187th Regiment to send two brigades to rush to assist the [-]th Regiment, and then order Linfen Airport to urgently dispatch the [-]th Regiment of the Air Force to provide air support.
Let the Fourteenth Brigade go to Ping'an County immediately to prevent any changes in the Liantai militia. "
Naozaburo Okabe was stunned for a moment: "Your Excellency, Linfen Airport is far from Xiaolongling Taiyuan. Even if you can barely reach Xiaolongling, the time spent in the air will not exceed 10 minutes. Moreover, the [-]th Brigade stationed in Xiaoqiushan was originally He is monitoring Ke Nanpo, if he is suddenly transferred away, will Yan Xishan have a different mind?"
Shinozuka Yoshio slowly shook his head: "I don't need them to stay for long, as long as they can appear in Xiaolongling and let the Tenth Regiment see it. As for the transfer of the [-]th Brigade..."
Speaking of this, Shinozuka Yoshio showed a sarcastic smile on his face, "If there is a disagreement after the No.14 brigade is transferred, he is not Yan Xishan."
Naozaburo Okabe thought for a while before he understood Yoshio Shinozuka's meaning, with a look of admiration on his face, he took out a pen and paper to draft a telegram and handed it to Yoshio Shinozuka for signature.
After the communications staff left, Ning Gangcun, who had been silent all the time, said, "Mr. Xiaozuka, I'm sorry about the Tenth Division. Although this is not an order from me, I can understand your feelings.
I think that the base camp's handling of this matter is inappropriate, but as senior generals, how we handle this kind of thing needs to test our wisdom.
I think your treatment just now is very good. When Yan Xishan was studying in the empire, he was notoriously indecisive. Such a person will not be able to accomplish great things.But I still don't understand how you transferred the [-]th Brigade to Ping'an County.
As far as I know, there is already a regiment stationed there. Is it necessary to transfer another brigade there? "
Shinozuka Yoshio sighed: "Your Excellency Gangcun, you have been stationed in Wuhan for a long time these years, commanding the No. 11 Army to fight against Jiang's elite troops in the Changsha area. You may not know much about Gao Hongming. The empire does not have the slightest reverence for the imperial army, which can be seen from the encounters of the No. 40th Division, the [-]th Division and the [-]th Division since last year.
And I can be sure that the aircraft group that bombed the Tenth Wing just now was definitely sent by Gao Hongming, and only he can hate the empire so much. "
Neji Komura closed his eyes for a long time and said nothing. Although he was far away in Wuhan a few days ago as the commander of the No.11 Army, he still heard about things in Shanxi. It took him a while to open his eyes. , Seriously said to Shinozuka Yoshio: "As for Gao Hongming, you must pay all your attention to him, and eliminate him at all costs. It would be terrible if he was allowed to develop."
Shinozuka Yoshio smiled bitterly and said, "I understand what your Excellency Commander means, and I have thought of many ways, but now that Gao Hongming is full-fledged, Liantai County has been managed like an iron bucket by him.
We also thought about sending a spy to get rid of him, but this man was extremely cautious.Moreover, his style of life is very strict. Apart from working in the regiment headquarters, he stays at home on weekdays. He never accepts any banquets. The spies and killers we send have no chance to get close to him. "
"Then can we assassinate him in the middle of his trip?" Okamura Ningji asked.
"It's useless." Kazuki Yamamoto answered this question for Yoshio Shinozuka. Gao Hongming is too cautious. Every time he travels, he is in a convoy. No one knows that he is in a convoy except his personal guards. what vehicle.For a little further distance, he will even travel in a chariot! "
"Nani?"
Even Gangcun Ningci, who had been a soldier for most of his life, was also stunned.
It took a long time to say, "Even His Majesty the Emperor is not so afraid of death?"
