Age of Rebirth

Chapter 520 Attacking Hebi

The battle broke out suddenly. Facing the sudden attack, the unprepared Central Army soldiers resisted in vain. They screamed and fell under the guns or bayonets of the Japanese army. A large gap was opened in the defensive position in an instant. Soldiers, along the gap, attacked in depth like a tide, leaving only a small number of troops, responsible for clearing the remaining Chinese soldiers on the position, and expanding the breakthrough for the follow-up troops. The leading eight Japanese tanks, breathing guns, roared and went straight to Anyang City .

As soon as the gunshots rang out outside Anyang, Xiaoshan arranged an ambush in the city to attack suddenly. The defense of the four gates of Anyang was guarded by the trusted officers of the two division commanders. The so-called vigilance is to put on a show, eat good food and drink soju every day, and forget what I do.

The Japanese army rushed into the barracks without any trouble, and when the cold muzzle of the gun was pressed against their foreheads, the officers and soldiers of the Central Army realized that something was wrong, and looked at the murderous Japanese soldiers in a daze. Man fell from the sky?With a cruel grin on his face, the commander of the Japanese army who led the team waved his hand, rushed to the two machine gunners, and fired mercilessly at the soldiers of the Central Army.

This is a naked massacre. The soldiers of the Central Army who woke up jumped up and ran towards their weapons. All of this was a futile struggle. This place has become a slaughterhouse. The pungent smell of blood and heavy gunpowder smoke fill the room. The Japanese commander has his own logic. It is the best and safest way to control a company of Chinese soldiers with less than 30 people. , is to turn these Chinese pigs into corpses. [

When Masao Koyama led two brigades of soldiers and rushed into Anyang City, the city was already in chaos. The sudden gunshots woke up the residents in the city. The two division commanders got up from the bed in panic, trembling. After carefully listening to the report of his cronies, he immediately made a decision, run!

Cleaning up the gold and silver, and ignoring the newly recruited concubine, they left Anyang Ximen with a dozen cronies. They judged very smartly that the Japanese must go south, and they can't be allowed to chase after their ass and leave the west gate. , and ran directly to Lin County, they never thought of resisting, and even reminded the Hebi defenders that they only wanted to leave this terrible place as soon as possible. As soldiers, their shameful behavior would definitely be punished by heaven.

When the officials ran away, the Central Army troops in the city immediately fell into a state of chaos, and the soldiers spontaneously organized resistance. They were the Japanese opponents like wolves and tigers, and Anyang City soon fell into the hands of the Japanese army. , On the tower of the four gates, the Japanese plaster flag was raised, and Anyang City was captured so smoothly, with less than a dozen casualties in the troops, and more than [-] prisoners alone, which was beyond Masao Koyama's expectations.

The captain of the Japanese army suggested that the troops should be deployed in the city immediately to control the situation and provide the necessary security environment for the follow-up troops. Xiaoshan looked at his former boss with disdain, and thought to himself, how did this guy climb to the position of captain?The next words surprised the Japanese commander.

"Everyone, we should take advantage of the victory and chase after the fleeing Chinese soldiers, continue to attack, take Hebi and Xinxiang, and go straight to Zhengzhou!" The Japanese army captain thought Xiaoshan was crazy, and with less than [-] troops, he occupied the Anyang, defended by two central military divisions and more than [-] troops, is already a great victory, taking advantage of the unexpected attack.

Can the gunfire in Anyang not disturb the Chinese defenders in Hebi?Where there are also two divisions, doing so is different from suicide!The captain of the Japanese army put forward his opinion without reservation, objecting to Captain Xiaoshan's risk-taking, he was making fun of the lives of the Imperial Army. Not too contemptuous, his opinion was also agreed by another Japanese army captain.

Masao Koyama grinned grimly, his eyes gleamed coldly, and reminded them unceremoniously that His Excellency the brigade commander authorized me to command the vanguard, and my determination will not waver. , responsible for the order of Anyang City, welcome the arrival of the main force of the brigade, and the rest of the troops, led by tanks, attack Hebi immediately, execute it!

After these hard words were spoken, the two Japanese army captains looked at each other. This guy is simply a lunatic, but he holds Shang Fang's sword in his hand. With the authorization of the head of the brigade, he can only accompany this lunatic on adventures. Xiaoshan has him He had the crazy idea to attack the Hebi defended by two whole divisions with the strength of two brigades. In normal times, even if Xiaoshan was stimulant and the emperor appeared, he would not have the courage to do so.

But now the situation is different, behind is the brigade's main force, and the 9-odd imperial squadron, no matter what, they can't be eaten by the Chinese squadron. , with eight tanks as the guide, when Katayama entered Anyang City, he himself seemed to be in a dream.

With more than a dozen casualties, he won the northern gate of Henan, which was heavily defended by China, and it took less than two hours. This guy Xiaoshan is really good!He looked for Xiaoshan everywhere, and really wanted to hold him and bite him hard to express his appreciation for him. After asking the Japanese military officers who stayed behind, he found out that Xiaoshan led less than two brigades of soldiers to attack Hebi. up.

Katayama was also shocked, and hurriedly climbed up the tower without even seeing the shadow of Xiaoshan's troops. If the Japanese were like him, conquering China would not be difficult.

Now that Xiaoshan has already rushed towards Hebi, Katayama can't just stand by and watch, not to mention, he can't let his confidant general fight alone. , tens of thousands of Japanese troops did not stay in Anyang, they chased the buttocks of the Katayama brigade, tanks roared, their footsteps were chaotic, and they rushed towards Hebi like a tide.

In Katayama's later praise of Koyama Masao, a major commander commanded more than 9 imperial soldiers, which is also a miracle in the military history of the empire.

When Xiaoshan attacked the outer positions of Hebi, he encountered a nail. The fierce gunshots in Anyang were heard by the forward observation post of the 53rd Division, and he immediately reported the situation to the division commander Liu Zhaoyu. Zhuzhu came down immediately, and the Japanese really started to attack Anyang. He knew what kind of goods the two divisions defended there, and they couldn't stand it for three hours.

He immediately ordered the troops to enter the position. The well-trained soldiers of the 53rd Division quickly entered their combat positions according to the combat plan. Liu Zhaoyu picked up the phone again and informed Cao Guangtu of Xinxiang about the battle situation in Anyang, asking him to tell Legion commander, a battle broke out in Anyang.

Then, he reported the situation to the 48th Division of his neighbors. Wang Guangpu, the commander of the division, sneered after hearing what he said: "Mr. Liu was too worried. If Anyang and the Japanese exchanged fire, the army headquarters would have come to order. As you and me Soldiers, the most important thing is to be calm, general demeanor, don't listen to the wind and rain, and worry unnecessarily, how can there be two elite divisions." After finishing speaking, before Liu Zhaoyu could say anything else, he hung up the phone with a snap.

Wang Guangpu put down the phone and smiled contemptuously. You, Liu Zhaoyu, are the only ones who can fight, and the regiment commander didn't move. Does that mean you?He knew in his heart that the two teachers in Anyang were his good friends, they usually called him confidantes because they were like-minded, and they were both Tang Enbo's favorites. If the Japanese broke in, would they not tell me?

The gunshots in Anyang were also heard by his soldiers. When the report came up, Wang Guangpu was playing mahjong and caught a good set of cards. His interest was disturbed and he was extremely annoyed. He cursed the officer on duty and ordered that Sleep, sleep, don't be so fucking poor, the officer on duty got a bad nose, got scolded, and felt angry, the teacher spoke, what are we doing so carelessly?

Wang Guangpu judged that it must be the subordinates of those two guys who blocked the armed smuggling gang, and they fought each other. These two guys worked tirelessly to make money. The phone call, can he have a good tone? [

Here, Liu Zhaoyu was holding the phone, stunned for a while, and then angry, are you deaf, Wang Guangpu?The gunshots in Anyang can be heard in Hebi. What did you say to me about the demeanor of a general? Bah, you just wanted to drop the phone when you thought about it. Suppressing the anger in my heart, I had to call the headquarters of the 49th Division again.

This time it was more straightforward. The officer on duty replied to him that the division commander had already rested. If there is any important matter, we can talk about it tomorrow. Liu Zhaoyu shouted furiously: "Tomorrow! Wait for the Japanese to hit the door tomorrow, you and I will lose our heads! "The other side simply hung up the phone, Liu Zhaoyu felt sad and silent for a long time, grabbed the submachine gun, led the guard battalion, and went directly to the battlefield.

When he arrived at the position, he could already hear the roar of tanks. In the night, with bright lights and eyes like poisonous snakes, the Japanese tanks had already appeared in sight, followed by a large group of Japanese soldiers. Liu Zhaoyu let out a painful cry , Anyang is over, it's less than two hours, and the two divisions collapsed like this?Why didn't the defeated soldiers escape?His heart was full of doubts.

Masao Koyama's actions were too sudden and fast. The Central Army of the two divisions in Anyang were all blocked in the city. Except for some who were killed, the rest were captured by the Japanese. The two division commanders were not good at fighting. Good player, slip fast, otherwise, you will become the first senior Chinese general captured by the Japanese army since the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War.

The vanguard of Xiaoshan quickly entered the defense line of the 53rd Hebi Division. Liu Zhaoyu shouted: "Fire!" In an instant, a burst of rain poured on the Japanese soldiers. Masao Koyama's feverish head suddenly cooled down.
