Age of Rebirth

The attack on the independent division's blocking position north of Anton failed, and almost none of the more than 200 Kwantung Army officers and commandos were killed. The commander of the new Kwantung Army's second corps, General Yokono, trembled with distress and was annoyed at The officers of the Manchurian Army flinched before the battle, became murderous, and shot more than [-] officers of the First Division of the First Army of the Manchurian Army who were disadvantaged in combat, from the division commander to the platoon leader, all of them were killed!

Collectively shot more than 200 Manchurian Army officers. Among all the officers of the Kwantung Army, Colonel Yokono was the first. General Meijin, the commander-in-chief of the army, would not blame himself. He just wanted to use such extreme and cruel methods to intimidate the soldiers of the Manchurian army and arouse their courage. To be precise, they dare not risk their lives to fight!

Apparently, Colonel Yokono's goal had been achieved, and the more than 3 Manchurian soldiers were thinking, "Perhaps, after the battle is over, there is still a way to survive. If you don't work hard, you will definitely die. The Japanese and us Don't dare to provoke them, they are all soldiers of the Chinese Independent Division, don't they dare to fight? How was the Anti-Japanese League back then?"

Of course, most of these soldiers from Manchuria are still afraid of the bloody methods of Colonel Yokono. They know that the Japanese are all ruthless. Hit, did you see, those officers of the Kwantung Army were staring at them with red eyes, they shot themselves down, just raising their hands, they didn't even have the qualifications to be tied up!

Colonel Yokono saw more than 3 Manchurian soldiers.Everyone was silent like cicadas, and there was fear from the heart in their eyes.I am very satisfied with my move. Of course, the combination of kindness and strength is the only magic weapon to deal with these Manchurians. Colonel Yokono knows this well. He changed his tone and said: "Those who don't fight bravely, this is the end. After capturing Anton, we You will be rewarded for your merits and deeds, the officers of the Empire of Japan. They will be at the forefront! They are your role models!"

After finishing speaking, Colonel Yokono said to the staff around him: "Convey my order, and the artillery will immediately start shelling, high-density shelling the position of the independent division. After the artillery fire starts to extend, everyone is ready to attack!"

The artillery fire of the newly formed Second Corps of the Kwantung Army once again bombarded violently. The six heavy artillery regiments of the Hantie Army, not to be outdone, immediately fired back. The artillery shells criss-crossed back and forth in the air. .From Wulongbei to Baoshan, the dust was blowing up.Gunpowder smoke filled the air, rumbling explosions rang out, and the air was filled with a choking, burning smell.

The artillery fire of the Japanese army began to extend, and the newly formed Second Corps of the Kwantung Army was dispatched to launch a fierce attack on the independent division's blockade line in the north of Andong. More than 8 Manchurian soldiers were waving their command knives and shouting "Great Japan!" Empire, allegiance to His Majesty the Emperor!" Driven and led by officers of the Kwantung Army at all levels with slogans, they rushed up all over the mountains and plains.

The artillery positions of the Hantie Army, the artillery shells fired, continued to fall to the ground and exploded into a wall of fire. Where the smoke and dust rose, the flames splashed, and the shrapnel flew across, blowing up countless human bodies. I dare not talk to the Japanese The soldiers of the Manchurian army are full of energy when they fight against the independent division.

The blocking troops of the six regiments of the Independent Division fired with intensive firepower, but the soldiers of the Kwantung Army's new second corps were knocked down as if they had been drugged, and another group rushed up, blood splattered, and their bodies were lying on the ground. Chen, but the teacher did not retreat, the roar of light and heavy machine guns, the clear and crisp bursts of submachine guns, the whistling sound of mortar shells, and the series of explosions of grenades were intertwined, and the battlefield once again ushered in a fierce battle. In the bloody battle, Wulong went back to Baoshan's front-line blocking position, and was under unprecedented pressure.

The front line of Wulongbei, the position of the [-]st Regiment of the [-]th Brigade of the Marine Corps, is the key offensive area of ​​the [-]nd Corps of the Kwantung Army, and the fighting is more intense than anywhere else. Bandages, carrying a submachine gun, leading a regiment of guards, throwing themselves into the fight, appearing in the most dangerous places.

Miao Wanlei was very puzzled. If it was a real kid, it would be normal for him to fight so fiercely, but he saw that they were all soldiers from Manchuria. Miao Wanlei didn't believe that the army had such fighting power, but he had to believe everything he saw.

The positions of the third battalion and the first company were in an emergency, so he immediately rushed over with the company of guards. As soon as he arrived at the position of the first company, he saw hundreds of Manchurian soldiers, led by officers of the Kwantung Army, rushing to a distance of less than 50 meters from the trenches. , One-third of the soldiers in the company suffered casualties, and the firepower was obviously sparse.

Miao Wanlei's eyeballs were on fire, and he yelled wildly, talking about the submachine gun in his hand, it was a fan shooting. The guards even had more than 100 submachine guns, roaring like a torrential rain, and the bullets rained over, hitting the Kwantung Army in front of the position. More than half of the soldiers of the new First Corps died, and the rest were immediately pressed to the ground and could not move.

"All of them, throw grenades!" Miao Wanlei yelled, and more than 100 grenades flew out, shaking the ground and shaking the ground. Finally, the Japanese army was dealt with. Suddenly, there was a sharp pain in his left arm, and warm blood, The sleeves of the military uniform were dyed red, Miao Wanlei shook it, and leaned against the trench. Turning his face to see, his arm was pierced by [-] bullets, and a hole was pierced. Fortunately, the little devil attacked again and was repelled. Temporarily stable.

Seeing that the regiment leader was injured again, the company commander of the guard company who had been closely protecting him was so regretful that he almost hit the wall, so he hurriedly supported him and shouted anxiously: "Captain, you are injured again, I will send you down to bandage him." !Military doctor! Come here quickly, the regiment leader is injured!"

Miao Wanlei grinned, "What are you yelling for? I still can't die. The little devil's [-]-point gun has enough penetration, but he will die. If he hits his body, there will be a transparent hole at most. When you shout, It's like something happened!"

The military doctor rushed over, bandaged Miao Wanlei's wound, and strongly urged him to go to the rear hospital. Miao Wanlei refused, "Are you kidding me? In this situation, I can go to the hospital and lie down at ease!" Seeing that he could not persuade the regiment leader, the military doctor Left helplessly, there are more wounded waiting for treatment!

The company commander of the guard company asked while pressing the bullets into the magazine: "Commander, why do I feel that something is wrong? It stands to reason that it is normal to fight with little devils more intensely than this, but the attacking ones are all second-rate soldiers." Devil, beat the real devil more fiercely?"

Miao Wanlei couldn't answer this question, but he knew that if the Kwantung Army's newly formed second corps maintained this offensive strength and frequency, his own troops would probably lose all their casualties. At this time, if there were reinforcements, even if it was A company is fine too!

Anton, Hantie's headquarters, the situation of the blocking battle at Wulongbei, Bianmen, and Baoshan in the north, has been continuously reported, and the situation is basically the same. middle!

Han Tie's doubts were similar to those of the regiment leaders on the front line. He didn't understand why the second corps with Manchurian soldiers as the main body was so powerful?Also, the line from Tangchi to Longwangmiao in the south of Andong, but the battle with the real devil is far less intense than in the north. Is this a bit of a wicked battle?

Han Tie was thinking about it when Chief of Staff Wang Dongshan came over and said, "Commander, the division commander sent a telegram to ask, what is the current situation on the Anton battlefield?"

Han Tie said without hesitation: "Truly report the battle situation to the division commander. The south is cold and the north is hot. The remnants of the [-]th Division of the Japanese Army in the south of Andong have weak offensive momentum. The newly formed Second Corps of the Kwantung Army in the north is extremely aggressive. We The blocking force is under enormous pressure!"

"By the way, why hasn't Liu Cuigang's bomber fleet arrived yet?" Han Tie asked suddenly.

Wang Dongshan reminded: "Commander, less than 10 minutes have passed, and the bomber fleet is still on the way!"

"Damn it! I'm really anxious. If I had enough troops, I would have fought back! Is it the turn of these two devils to be rampant?" Han Tie muttered to himself.

In the north of Andong, in the area of ​​Yangmuchuan, General Commander Yokono of the Kwantung Army's new second corps set up his headquarters on a high ground, from which you can overlook the whole battlefield in the direction of Wulongbei. In the binoculars, Colonel Yokono Seeing that the soldiers had pushed to the front of the position of the blocking troops of the Independent Division, they were only one step away, and several breakthroughs could be opened. Immediately, his heart jumped out of excitement, trembling all over his body like a ram's horn. ah!

"Order, the third detachment of the corps will go into battle immediately. It must maintain the intensity of the attack. Whether it succeeds or not, it will be done in one fell swoop!" Colonel Yokono's tactical skills are still good, and he immediately saw the opportunity, and took out a whole division of Manchuria* * Troops, all pressed in the direction of Wulongbei.

Dark figures emerged from behind a gentle slope, and then formed a line of skirmishers. Soon in the sight of the soldiers, they turned into Manchurian soldiers wearing uniforms of the same color as the Japanese army.

Miao Wanlei, who returned to the headquarters of the regiment, squinted his eyes, looked at the Manchurian soldiers rushing up from all over the mountains, and said in a low voice: "It's really exciting, damn it, don't give me a chance to catch my breath! Order the troops , prepare to fight!" he shouted to the chief of staff.

Then, Miao Wanlei picked up the phone, "Head Xu, I'm Miao Wanlei, I said dude, your big guy, don't bother fighting with the little devil's artillery, the second devil is here again, what's the matter?" It’s quite a lot, at least 2 people, and I really value my group, yes, block the shelling, coordinates and directions, I’ll give it to you right away, kill these two devils who look like chicken blood, next, I'm ready to fight too!"

Cannonballs flew towards them whistling, blasting up columns of smoke. Immediately, the Japanese artillery began to carry out suppressive shelling, while the charging Manchurian soldiers, still fierce, rushed forward regardless of the artillery fire. Miao Wanlei's heart sank, and he thought to himself : "This level, I'm afraid it will be sad!"
