Age of Rebirth

~- -~

As a professional artillery observer, Meng Xiaozhu knows what it means to accept the order of Zheng Yong, the supreme commander of the artillery. It means that he and his observation team will be the first to bear the heavy artillery fire as the benchmark for the artillery fire. And to correct the point, the first shot must land at the coordinates where he is.

To put it bluntly, maybe they will finish earlier than the little devils and be killed by their own artillery. This is not a correction point outside the shelling area. Meng Xiaozhu hesitated and replied loudly: "Report to the commander, and we will ensure that it is completed." The task, my observation team, will definitely report the point of the first shelling to the artillery group accurately and incorrectly."

Zheng Yong even said, "Okay, okay!" Putting down the phone, his face was solemn, and a staff officer asked: "Commander, do we have to do this?" Looking at the staff officer, he asked: "Do you have a better way?" Yes, can there be a better way? "Everyone bowed their heads.

No, the position of Meng Xiaozhu's observation team is exactly to the left of the center of the planned bombardment area. The assistant ordered: "You two, immediately enter the cave to hide. After I provide the first landing position and coordinates, immediately enter the cave to hide." [

The two assistants became anxious when they heard this, "Team leader, that's too dangerous, why can't we observe at the entrance of the cave?" Meng Xiaozhu didn't speak, but just smiled, "It's a novice after all, it's safe to observe at the entrance of the cave. , it’s just the situation directly in front, and the effect of the shelling on the left and right wings cannot be seen.” He didn’t know the size of the entire artillery group of the Independent Division, but he knew that his third artillery group alone had more than 800 artillery pieces of various calibers. The door, a salvo, is an overwhelming explosion.

At 45:15 a.m. on October [-], [-] Japanese troops from the six divisions of the first attack wave came out from the direction of Mogok under the cover of heavy fog. The first two divisions had already left Mogok. The valley is quite a distance away.

The battlefield is calm, the sky is full of fog, and no target can be seen clearly. Ito's hands are soaked in cold sweat, and his heart is beating uncontrollably. Give him another five or ten minutes, and the six divisions The imperial army of the regiment will appear in front of Tang Qiuli's troops without any warning, like a magic soldier descending from the sky, and launch a fatal blow that will change the entire situation of the Burmese war situation.

For the troops under sudden attack, the dense fog will increase the fear of the Chinese soldiers. They don't know how many imperial soldiers will jump out of the thick fog and stab the cold bayonet into their chests , This is a heavy fog that blesses the troops dispatched by the Empire of Japan in Southeast Asia, and it is the special favor of Amaterasu God for him Yansaburo Ito.

Chief of Staff Takemura's cold voice shattered the almost solidified atmosphere, "Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, I have a doubt, since the first attack wave of the imperial army is progressing smoothly and has not encountered any resistance so far, it has already approached Meng Why don't our second echelon in the Libao Grand Canyon line up the rhythm of the attack?"

"If the Chinese devil Tang Qiuli deploys troops on the front line of Mengmi far more than our troops in the first attack wave, the separation between this link will bring great danger to the imperial army, even the commander-in-chief's first The second echelon attacked, and the attack rhythm was blank for more than 40 minutes, which would cause all the soldiers of the imperial army in the first attack wave to be shattered or severely injured, and I hope that your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, can give you some advice?"

Ito could hardly help turning around and slapping him with a big mouth, "I've seen idiots, but I've never seen such pig-headed people. Even if Tang Qiuli deployed a million troops on the front line of Mengmi, the six divisions in the first attack wave would be encircled." , he has the ability to swallow 15 imperial soldiers in one hour?"

"Before the gunshots rang out, no one knew what would happen next. If the main force of the dispatched army was thrown into it rashly, the big trap of Mogok would be more terrifying than this thick fog. If something unexpected happened, I, Ito, would lose Losing all the capital, my current tactical configuration is a two-way strategy of advancing, attacking, retreating and defending."

Ito didn't have the patience or disdain to say these words to Takemura in detail. He couldn't even take a look at this guy, so Ito didn't look back, and said in the same cold tone: "Chief of Staff, about It is not your turn to dictate the details of the campaign command, besides, Mr. Takemura has never been to a real battlefield."

Wu Cun was so angry at Ito's few words that his face was livid with anger. He was furious at first after being scolded by Ito, but at this time, the flames in his heart "huhu" sprang up, and he was about to lose his temper when he saw everyone in the headquarters. The officer with the unfriendly look in his eyes finally came to his senses. He was alone on Ito’s territory, and he was in a stalemate. There was no good fruit to eat. What he said just now was actually forcing Ito to send the troops of the second echelon, Putting it all in is a bit of an overreach, and he swallowed his breath abruptly, and replied with flaming eyes: If the supreme commander makes a mistake, causing heavy losses to the imperial army or causing the failure of the Burmese battle plan , I will truthfully report the situation to the base camp, please do your own thing, Commander-in-Chief! "

The last few words were already threatening, and Ito turned his head abruptly, his eyes were like poisonous snakes, he swept across Wucun's fair and thin face, and squeezed out the four words "you are welcome," and then he directly regarded Wucun as The air generally exists, without taking a second look, without ordering the guards to blast this pig-like idiot out, Ito has tried his best to restrain himself.

Just as Ito and Takemura were fighting each other, and the third artillery group of the independent division artillery was ready for shelling, Zheng Yong said succinctly to the phone: "Let's start!"

A loud noise like thunder suddenly sounded in this dense fog in the early morning. The screaming sound from far to near, tearing the air and penetrating the dense fog, came suddenly, "Boom, boom, boom!" The sound of the explosion In the dense fog, Meng Xiaozhu spat out the dirt in his mouth and grinned, "The artillerymen were very accurate, and the cannon almost hit him on the back."

Although the fog was thick, the fire when the cannon exploded was like lightning in the clouds, instantly illuminating the surrounding space. Meng Xiaozhu caught it at a glance from the artillery mirror, and he could not help but let out a low cry , "Good fight!" "The artillery group, the artillery group, [-] to the left, [-] azimuth, all-round coverage," After reporting these numbers, put away the artillery mirror, like an agile monkey, Get into the cave.

If you don't run, you will be blown to pieces by your own guns. He knows too well what will happen next after the time reports these numbers. Thousands of artillery salvos, high-speed flying metal pellets, tear the air, Breaking through the dense fog, it came roaring with a sharp howl, and then, in the flash like thousands of golden snakes swimming, a huge and continuous explosion echoed in the dense fog, and the shock wave agitated the dense In the fog, in the thick fog, there are countless metal fragments whistling, spinning, cutting, and destroying.

Ito, who was standing in the headquarters, suddenly felt his feet tremble, and there was a rolling low muffled sound, which made his heart beat violently. Ito immediately grabbed the binoculars, and in the lens, there were lines like swimming in the clouds Ito's heart sank, the artillery of the independent division was shelling, did he find out that he was attacking the intention of the advertisement, or was he conducting a tentative shelling?

Due to the limited angle of the observation post, it was impossible to see the whole picture of the battlefield. Ito turned around and ordered: "Find out the situation immediately, and the attacking troops will report their current situation!" The staff officer who accepted the order has not yet left.Another staff officer hurried in, "Report to Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, they received a report from the first attacking wave of troops. They were heavily shelled, and the troops were suppressed in place. They cannot continue to attack!"

Ito turned around sharply, and almost roared, "Baga, can't you report it? Whether it was shelled locally or across the board, was it a random shelling, or was the shelling on the offensive route of our imperial army, quickly find out, "Ito is not confused. If it is a local area or a few points that have been bombarded, it means that it is a routine artillery reconnaissance by the front troops of the Independent Division, and has not yet discovered his own large-scale attack.

Of course, Ito didn't really believe in such a coincidence, but when his troops launched an attack, Tang Qiuli's troops carried out artillery reconnaissance. Didn't the electrified guns hit in the thick fog, and the devil Tang Qiuli It's not enough to chat like this, and what he is most worried about is that his offensive intention will be seen through, and the opponent will answer him with countless cannonballs. [

A few minutes later, Ito's premonition became reality. He was still the staff officer, but he was even more panicked than before, "Report to the commander-in-chief and the attacking troops to report that all offensive routes have been violently bombarded. Type of bombardment! The artillery of the Chinese covered the entire area from Mogok to Mengmi."

Ito swayed suddenly, and the staff officer beside him rushed to support him. The staff officer's words showed a terrible result. The imperial army troops of the six divisions in the first attack wave were ambushed by the artillery of Tang Qiuli's troops. The artillery shrouded 15 imperial soldiers in a sea of ​​death and flames.

Mogok is indeed a huge trap. The artillery of the independent division must have delineated the bombardment area in advance, but how could Tang Qiuli know that the imperial army troops hidden in the fog, and the bombardment target precise?

The plan to use the fog to conceal his attack attempt obviously failed, and the failure was reversible. The 15 imperial soldiers became lambs waiting to be slaughtered under the heavy rain. With the help of God and the favor of God Amaterasu, he gave himself Field of fog.

The only attack that can control the initiative on the battlefield, it has not started yet, it will end, Ito is not reconciled. ~- -~
