I am helping

Chapter 752 Li Yunlong is really cunning!

Datong City Wall.

Putting down the binoculars, Colonel Aiko Suzuki looked very ugly.

The 1st Division can't beat the Eighth Route Army's Xinyi Regiment.

The head of the 1st Division and the chief of staff above did not even have the courage to resist, and Suzuki Aixiong could understand.

After all, Suzuki Aixiong didn't want to fight the Eighth Route Army's Xinyi Regiment either.

The good news is that the Suzuki Regiment has become a Division A unit, and everyone from the soldiers to the officers feels awe-inspiring.

But the bad news is that the Suzuki United Team has to face the pressure of the Eighth Route Army Xinyi Regiment to fight Datong at any time.

The main force of the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army may soon arrive in Datong.

Although his Suzuki Wing has incorporated many broken soldiers from the original 1st Division, its combat effectiveness has been greatly enhanced.

The combat effectiveness of today's Suzuki Regiment is not much worse than that of the infantry regiment of the real Type A division.

but.

He was close to the 1st Infantry Battalion of a Type A division regiment, and the entire army was wiped out with just one encounter, which made Suzuki Aixiong furious.

From the field of vision of the telescope, it can be seen that the 1st Infantry Brigade has been wiped out, torn to pieces, and there are not many wounded.

There are huge craters all over the place where the shells wash the ground.

This is at least the heavy artillery firepower of an artillery division, and only the artillery firepower possessed.

The enemy's artillery fire came really suddenly just now. The charging Japanese soldiers heard the sound of explosions and machine guns, not even the sound of shells whistling.

Then, less than half a minute before and after, the 1st Infantry Battalion, which was charging, was covered by artillery fire.

There was no bunker, and there was no movement to get down. The 1st Infantry Battalion was just blown up by hundreds of heavy artillery shells.

This was completely beyond his expectations, and his soldiers didn't even have time to react.

"Your Excellency, Captain!"

Fujita Hidehachi, who had escaped back, came to the city wall, bowed his head to Suzuki Aixiong, and lowered his head very low: "My brigade was attacked by at least one heavy artillery division of the Eighth Route Army, and suffered heavy casualties. Please give me another one, sir. Infantry brigade, I will definitely wipe out the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army outside the city..."

Before Hidehachi Fujita finished speaking, Suzuki Aixiong slapped him hard on the left cheek.

but.

After all, Fujita Hidehachi was the captain of the Type A Division. He had been on the battlefield for a long time, and his physical fitness was higher than that of ordinary soldiers. Not only did he remain motionless, but he even said hi.

"Baga, you idiot!"

Suzuki Aixiong slapped Fujita Hidehachi and was still angry, he slapped the right cheek with his backhand, raised his leg and kicked him in the chest, kicking Fujita Hidehachi to the ground.

This Fujita Hidehachi relied on himself as the captain of the Class A division, and he was often unconvinced by Suzuki Aixiong on weekdays.

Fujita Hidehachi felt that his military level and tactical command ability were superior to Suzuki Aixiong.

Therefore, on weekdays, Fujita Hidehachi did not fail to overcome.

Suzuki Aixiong endured him for a long time, but there was no way. Fujita Hidehachi was the candidate for the 1st Infantry Battalion designated by the head of the division.

This time, Suzuki Aixiong finally got the chance, and naturally he wanted to ruthlessly repair Fujita Hidehachi.

"Hi!"

With blood on the corner of Fujita Hidehachi's mouth, he got up and nodded heavily.

"The cavalry of the Eighth Route Army has already run away, you trash, stupid pig, how did you become the infantry captain of the 1st Division?"

"Can't even try to attack?"

"Only the artillery bombards the infantry?"

Suzuki Aixiong couldn't help yelling.

But Fujita Hidehachi didn't dare to say a word, his expression was full of bitterness, and he didn't dare to restrain himself anymore.

The 1st Infantry Brigade was the capital for him to gain a foothold in the army. The 1st Infantry Brigade was almost wiped out, and he was no longer a good captain.

I was fooled, the Eighth Route Army had already deployed extremely powerful artillery firepower in the distance, and was waiting for the 1st Infantry Brigade to rush up to send it off.

He was eager to make contributions, and he directly suppressed the entire infantry brigade without probing and attacking.

But then again, even if it is a trial attack, the final result will definitely not change.

No matter how powerful the tactical command ability is, another person will fall into the tricks of the Eighth Route Army.

If you want to blame it, you can blame the Eighth Route Army for being too cunning, actually resisting the shells with their bodies, and attracting Japanese soldiers to be fooled.

ding ding ding-

The phone on the city wall rang, and a ghost phone soldier picked it up: "Moxi, Moxi..."

Afterwards, the ghost phone soldier covered the phone and looked at Suzuki Aixiong: "Your Excellency, the regiment commander, it is the call from the division headquarters, asking what happened to us."

Only then did Suzuki Aiko stop cursing and beating Fujita Hidehachi, and quickly walked towards the telephone soldier.

……

In the city of Datong.

The 1th Division Headquarters.

Chief of Staff Yoshio Noguchi put down the phone and reported to Division Chief Mitsuo Nakazawa: "Your Excellency, Division Commander, I just asked Mr. Suzuki. The 1st Infantry Battalion launched an attack on the Eighth Route Army cavalry outside Beicheng, and was attacked by heavy artillery fire from the Eighth Route Army. , the 1st Infantry Battalion was almost... wiped out."

Before calling the Suzuki Wing, Yoshio Noguchi called the 6th Heavy Artillery Wing first and asked if the 6th Heavy Artillery Wing fired at the Eighth Route Army outside the city without authorization.

The Eighth Route Army's 12 Katyusha rocket launchers and 192 rockets were all fired within 10 seconds.

Many rockets exploded almost at the same time, and the movement was so loud that it sounded like the explosion of a 240mm heavy howitzer.

Although the Katyusha rocket is as powerful as a Soviet-style 152mm cannon, it is not as powerful as the Japanese 240mm heavy howitzer. After all, the difference in caliber is nearly 100mm.

With the movement just now, the whole of Datong seemed to be shaking.

Both Yoshio Noguchi and Mitsuo Nakazawa thought that the 6th Heavy Artillery Regiment was firing at the cavalry positions of the Eighth Route Army outside the city.

"Nani?"

"The entire 1st Infantry Battalion was wiped out?"

Sanfu Nakazawa's face suddenly changed when he heard the words, and his pupils shrank slightly.

"Hi!" Yoshio Noguchi continued, "Master Suzuki said that the Eighth Route Army used artillery division-level heavy artillery firepower, and the 1st Infantry Battalion was wiped out in one encounter."

"Heavy artillery firepower at the artillery division level?" Mitsuo Nakazawa's face changed drastically.

An artillery division-level heavy artillery firepower, at least 120 heavy artillery pieces with a caliber of 150 mm or more, opened fire on the 1st Infantry Brigade in unison.

You know, even the largest heavy artillery unit of the Japanese army is nothing more than a heavy artillery brigade.

The two heavy artillery regiments form a heavy artillery brigade, which has 60-80 cannons with a caliber of 150 mm or more.

Only two heavy artillery brigades can form a heavy artillery division, which has 120-160 cannons with a caliber of 150 mm or more.

So far, the Japanese army does not even have a heavy artillery division.

A bad feeling suddenly rose in Mitsuo Nakazawa's heart, which made him feel chills down his spine.

Even if the 1st Division wants to leave now, I'm afraid it won't be possible.

Outside the city is the heavy artillery unit of the Xinyi Regiment of the Eighth Route Army. Once his 6th Heavy Artillery Regiment leaves the city, it will inevitably be bombarded by the Eighth Route Army heavy artillery unit.

Mitsuo Nakaze immediately ordered: "Order the 6th Heavy Artillery Regiment to deploy immediately and launch shelling on the cavalry positions of the Eighth Route Army outside the city!"

"Your Excellency, Division Commander," Noguchi Yoshio reported, "The cavalry of the Eighth Route Army has withdrawn from the position."

Mitsuo Nakaze said: "Then order the 6th Heavy Artillery Regiment to start shelling the Eighth Route Army's heavy artillery positions. The Eighth Route Army's heavy artillery must be destroyed, otherwise our 1st Division will not be able to leave!"

"Division Commander." Yoshio Noguchi asked, "What if we can't find the Eighth Route Army's heavy artillery position?"

"Then report this matter to the North China Front Army Command immediately." Nakazawa said, "Apply for the mobilization of fighter jets and bombers to destroy the Eighth Route Army's heavy artillery positions."

After a pause, Sanfu Nakazawa said again: "The heavy artillery position at the division level must be very large. As long as it is around Datong, it will definitely be discovered by the aviation."

"Hi!"

Yoshio Noguchi bowed his head suddenly, and immediately began to prepare a telegram.

……

at the same time.

In the sky about 20 kilometers away from Datong, two Japanese Type 2 reconnaissance planes lined up and flew north along the Tongpu Highway.

The Tachikawa Type 98 reconnaissance aircraft was the main reconnaissance aircraft of the Japanese Army Air Force during World War II.

Two reconnaissance planes swept past along the road at an altitude of 2000 meters.

Their task is to conduct reconnaissance along the road from northwest Shanxi to Datong, and report immediately if they find a large group of Eighth Route Army troops.

Today's weather is fine, the sun has not risen, the sky is blue.

Flying forward about 10 kilometers, the pilot of the lead plane, Lieutenant Tian Shoyoshi, suddenly saw dense figures appearing on the road ahead.

Nagata Shokichi hurriedly raised his binoculars to look, and couldn't help but gasped.

I saw at least tens of thousands of the Eighth Route Army marching northward on the road leading to Datong.There are densely packed steel helmets and crowds of people.

"Nagata-kun, I saw a lot of enemies..."

Takahashi Kuramatsu, the pilot of another reconnaissance plane, was calling to Nagada Shoyoshi.

"I saw."

"idiot…"

"There are heavy tanks and heavy artillery. This must be the main force of the Xinyi Regiment of the Eighth Route Army. Report to the headquarters immediately."

After observing for a while, Nagata Shokichi put down the binoculars and said in a solemn tone.

Due to the fast speed of the plane, it can fly at least 1 kilometers in one minute, so Nagata Shoyoshi saw the heavy artillery and heavy tank units of the Eighth Route Army.

As soon as the voice fell, Takahashi Kuramatsu exclaimed again on the radio channel: "My God, there are at least four artillery regiments. I also saw anti-aircraft guns. Let's stay away from the Eighth Route!"

At that moment, Nagata Shoyoshi held the receiver and microphone of the radio and shouted loudly: "This is Hawkeye 2, call the headquarters, call the headquarters..."

……

"Nani, the main force of the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army is less than 10 kilometers away from Datong?"

Beiping, Iron Lion Alley.

At the North China Front Army Headquarters, Okamura Ningji had an unbelievably shocked look on his face after listening to the communication staff report.

Although it had been expected, Okamura Ningji was still a little hard to accept the news.

Could it be that the information from the pangolin is false?
Tanabe Moritake and Arisue Seizo on the side also said that they were fooled.

It turns out that Xinyi regiment's attack on Taiyuan was just an illusion. Li Yunlong's real strategic goal was to eat up the 1st division!

The 1st Division is a veteran division of the Japanese army. If the 1st Division is eaten up, it will be a great blow to the morale of the Japanese army!
"Hi!" Kitani Chiao replied, "The reconnaissance plane saw at least four artillery regiments of the Eighth Route Army, including heavy artillery units, tank units, and anti-aircraft artillery units!"

"It must be the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army." Shengwu Tanabe said in a deep voice, "Li Yunlong is really cunning!"

Neiji Okamura also felt his head was a little swollen. Li Yunlong never played cards according to common sense. Even though Neiji Okamura was the best tactician in the Japanese army, he still couldn't keep up with Li Yunlong's thinking.

After a pause, Okamura Neiji looked at Kitani Chiao: "Kitani-kun, immediately give an order to the 1st Division by radio to abandon Datong and turn north!"

"Hi!"

Kitani Haruo suddenly lowered his head, turned and left.
