Rebirth of the Republic of China: The Rise of China

Across the Yalu River

As a highly educated Japanese middle and senior military officer, Iwamoto Zhongzuo has never believed in the so-called gods.In his eyes, Amaterasu, who is widely circulated in the army, is a trick deliberately fabricated by some politicians and high-level military officials to deceive grassroots officers and soldiers in order to win and boost the morale of the troops.

Since there is no help from the gods, the artillery fire of the Ninth Army was so accurate.Then, there is only one reason that seems almost impossible to me: the artillery unit of the Ninth Army on the other side of the Yalu River has successfully mastered the deployment plans of all the machine gun bunkers and anti-bunker holes along the defense line along the river through channels that I don't know... >

What's more, in his rear, the eyes of countless artillery units of the Ninth Army are hiding.Use the radio at any time to guide the artillery units of the Ninth Army to guide more accurate artillery strikes.

The Ninth Army got the deployment map of the machine gun bunkers along the defense line along the river, and the artillery observers of the Ninth Army were hidden behind them...>

Looking at the chief of staff in front of him, he heard the rumbling cannons outside the headquarters.Lieutenant Assistant Iwamoto, with shock, said to himself: "Yes, it must be like this...>

"Your Excellency Commander. You mean behind us. There are a large number of artillery observers of the Ninth Army hidden...>

Lieutenant Iwamoto nodded noncommittally, and said, "That's for sure...>

Since the artillery unit of the Ninth Army has a large number of artillery observers to assist in the shelling, the large number of secret machine gun bunkers they built along the defense line along the river are no longer a secret to them.

Thinking of one by one in the battle, the only bunker that can rely on machine guns will be turned into ruins under the precise bombardment of the opponent.A trace of fear immediately surfaced on Zhongzuo Iwamoto's face.

Facing the chief of staff who hadn't reacted from the astonishment.Decisively ordered: "Chief of Staff, all the machine gun bunkers and anti-bunker holes along the defense line of the river are no longer safe for our warriors...>

"Yes, Commander...>

Seeing the chief of staff who quickly disappeared at the entrance of the command department, Zhongzuo Iwamoto subconsciously picked up a telephone on the table in front of him, dialed the number leading to the superior directly under Sinuiju, and asked for tactical guidance.

The Kwantung Army's line of defense along the river.Teams of the Kwantung Army, under the order of Zhongzuo Yu Iwamoto, braved the artillery fire and rushed out of the machine gun bunkers and artillery holes that looked like tombs.

It is located behind the Kwantung Army's defense line along the river.Seeing the soldiers of the Kwantung Army rushing forward, they just rushed out of the machine gun bunker.It was completely exposed to the fierce artillery fire of the Ninth Army.A group of artillery observers hiding behind the Kwantung Army's defense line along the river flashed a strong killing intent directly on their faces.Without the slightest hesitation.Quickly through the radio, the various changes in the Kwantung Army's front line of defense were immediately notified to the artillery headquarters of the Ninth Army on the other side...>

"Order, all field artillery, mountain artillery, launch shelling immediately. Use incendiary bombs and high-explosive bombs to massacre the vital forces of the Kwantung Army along the defense line along the river...>

Another ear-piercing roar sounded in the air, and more than 100 rounds of incendiary bombs and high-explosive bombs, like an airtight bomb net, quickly enveloped the Kwantung Army's defense line along the river.

The shells exploded, and the fragments of the shells flew along the defense line along the river, plundering and harvesting all the soldiers of the Kwantung Army standing around them.The incendiary bomb exploded, with the point of impact as the center, within a radius of ten meters, no matter it was the soldiers of the Kwantung Army or the weapons in the hands of the Kwantung Army, they were all engulfed in a sea of ​​flames without exception...>

Round after round, in less than five minutes, the Japanese army's defense line along the river, which stretched for one or two kilometers, was completely shrouded in thick gunpowder smoke and fire.As for the more than 5 Kwantung Army soldiers defending this line of defense, except for more than a hundred people who were lucky enough to withdraw from the battlefield, the rest of the soldiers were all dead or injured and fell on the ground, their lives and deaths unknown.

Raindrops of shells kept pouring into the Kwantung Army's defense line along the river on the other side of the Yalu River.Jiang Baili, commander-in-chief of the Liaodong Corps, Zhou Xingguo, former commander-in-chief of the enemy, and Zhang Zizhong, chief of staff.The three of them also stood on the high ground at the entrance of the command department, holding up binoculars, and smilingly admiring the feast of gunfire in front of them.

Among them, the most shocking one was undoubtedly Zhang Zizhong, who had just joined the Ninth Army.Looking at the telescope, the Kwantung Army's defense line along the river has been completely enveloped by artillery fire.Master Zhang Zizhong couldn't help but let out a sigh of emotion: "I really never thought that in my lifetime, I could see the Chinese army and have such a powerful artillery force. The big Japanese army didn't have the slightest room to fight back...>

Commander-in-Chief Jiang Baili responded with a smile: "Master Zhang, the strength of our Ninth Army is far more than what you see on the surface. After a long time, all kinds of secrets will be slowly exposed to you." You must know that the development goal of my Ninth Army has not been to dominate the country. It is to strengthen China's national defense force and fight against the Japanese "government" as the ultimate goal. Therefore, I can tell you with certainty that the ninth The army group is definitely the wisest choice you have made in your life. And this choice can completely make your name last forever in your military career..."

When Zhang Zizhong's face slowly revealed a fiery expression because of Jiang Baili's words.A burst of hurried footsteps sounded quickly from behind.Before the three could turn their heads, the communications staff spoke anxiously.It has already sounded: "Report sir: Frogman Squadron has called, and all dangerous targets along the Kwantung Army's defense line along the river have been cleared. The troops can start attacking."

Immediately, Zhou Xingguo, the former enemy commander in chief.Chief of Staff Zhang Zizhong.The two pairs of fiery eyes quickly shifted to Jiang Baili, waiting for the command of the commander-in-chief Jiang Baili. [

Two seconds, after less than two seconds of waiting, a resolute expression appeared on Jiang Baili's face.Facing the two subordinates, he ordered in a firm tone: "Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhang, next. It's time for you two to behave... >

"Now I order that all the troops participating in the war will launch an attack immediately according to the predetermined plan...>

After finishing speaking, a pair of sharp eyes swept across the two of them.He opened the mouth with a dignified face and said: "Master Zhou, Master Zhang, I, Jiang Baili, are at the headquarters, waiting for the good news from you two. Let the Kwantung Army on the opposite side try again the unstoppable and powerful combat power of our Ninth Army...>

The feet of the two people suddenly came together.After paying a military salute to Jiang Baili, he promised loudly: "Please rest assured, the Liaodong Corps promises to complete the mission and win the first battle. Teach the Kwantung Army on the other side..."

On the banks of the Yalu River, more than a dozen small boats carrying all the officers and soldiers of the 223st Battalion of the [-]rd Regiment had already been lined up.Stop by the river, waiting for the order to attack.

Watched a few minutes ago.It was still pitch black on the other side of the Yalu River, and the Kwantung Army's defense line along the river was enveloped by intense artillery fire in a blink of an eye.The faces of all the officers and soldiers of the first battalion.They all showed expressions of anticipation and excitement.Because they are confident: under the attack and cover of such fierce artillery fire, their next attack will definitely win.

"Going on the offensive...>

After receiving the order, the face of the battalion commander of the first battalion was quickly enveloped by an expression of excitement.Without making any speeches to hundreds of subordinates, he directly picked up a flare gun that had already been prepared, pointed it at the sky, and pulled the trigger...>

Three signal flares of different colors flew into the sky with a whistling sound.Finally, at the highest point of the entire flight path, there were three crisp explosion sounds.

As three gorgeous fireworks unfolded in the dark night, more than a dozen small boats full of officers and soldiers of the Ninth Army quickly sailed towards the other side of the Yalu River like a sharp sword off the string.

At this moment, under the cover and barrier of more than one hundred artillery pieces of various calibers from the Liaodong Corps.The entire Kwantung Army defense line along the river, the more than 100 Kwantung Army soldiers who still survived, could not see the situation on the Yalu River at all.

More than a dozen small boats full of officers and men of the Ninth Army crossed the center of the Yalu River easily without encountering any resistance, and quickly sailed towards North Korea.

"Machine gun cover...>

Each small boat has three tongues of fire, and the total of more than a dozen small boats has almost forty tongues of fire.Forty scorching tongues of flames lined up and swept across the Yalu River to the Kwantung Army's line of defense along the river.Under the cover of these flames, more than a dozen small boats full of officers and soldiers quickly approached the shore like unstoppable sharp swords.

"Chi Chi...>

Of course, the commander of the first battalion would not let go of such a favorable opportunity.

Another shout came from the mouth of the commander of the first battalion.The commander of the first battalion directly took the lead.While jumping off the small boat he was on, he picked up a submachine gun hanging around his neck.Facing the Kwantung Army's line of defense along the river, which is close at hand, "shot" a hot tongue of flame...>

"Da da da...>

The rain of bullets poured down like water, and the defense line along the river stretched for two kilometers.At this moment, he had already been beaten into a hornet's nest by such a dense rain of bullets.

The Ninth Army officers and soldiers holding submachine guns and semi-automatic rifles are under the cover of such powerful firepower.Like a tiger descending the mountain, it quickly rushed to the Kwantung Army's defense line along the river after being baptized by bullets...>

And until this moment.Following behind the commander-in-chief, Zhongzuo Iwamoto, he was lucky enough to escape the more than 100 remnants of the Kwantung Army who had just been shelled.Only then did he have the opportunity to pass through the thick gunpowder in front of him.Seeing the first wave of offensive troops of the Ninth Army who have successfully landed and rushed towards their defense line along the river...>

The line of defense along the river fell.It is certain that the rank of Colonel, who is about to be acquired, will definitely be lost.At the same time, facing the responsibility of lying about the military situation and the results of the battle, one's military career will also die because of it.

Thinking of this, Lieutenant Iwamoto's face suddenly turned pale.I also secretly swear in my heart, no matter what.No matter how high the price is, I still have to defend the line of defense along the river... >

Thinking of this, a trace of murderous intent immediately enveloped Iwamoto Nakazuo's face.Facing the more than 100 subordinates who were still surviving in front of him, he ordered mercilessly: "Baga, what are you still doing here...>

"Immediately launch a counterattack. Kill it... >

Amidst the roars of several officers, even if they knew that they were going to attack now, they would definitely die in battle.However, in the face of the almost harsh military discipline within the Kwantung Army. More than 100 Kwantung Army soldiers, still holding their bayonet-mounted rifles with the despair before dying.Shouting and rushing towards the defense line along the river which is close at hand...

"Warriors of the Great Japanese Empire, for victory. Kill to... >

"Warriors, the Chinese are cowards. Go to the battlefield and drive them into the Yalu River to feed the fish..."

All kinds of roars, roars before death, catharsis... >

The battalion commander of the first battalion was like discovering a new continent in the vast ocean. He pointed to the more than 100 Kwantung Army soldiers who were getting closer and closer to him, and shouted with bright eyes: "You son of a bitch, it's a little devil, there are still little devils here!" ...>

"Brothers, don't be polite to me, all the bullets, give me hello to the little devil...>

When the order was issued, hundreds of flames and hundreds of bullets, like rain, quickly enveloped more than 100 Kwantung Army troops.The more than 100 Kwantung Army who had sensed the imminent death were cut to the ground in pieces without even having time to react.

Of course, Lieutenant Zuo Iwamoto, who held his position at all costs, was also among these Kwantung Army soldiers.In front of bullets, the principle of equality for all was directly manifested in this almost unilateral massacre.Facing the dense rain of bullets, even if several guards wanted to block the bullets from the front.However, there were still several bullets that hit the chest of Nakasuke Iwamoto fiercely...>

"chi chi chi...>

"This...>

The last force in the hands of the commander-in-chief, Zhongzuo Iwamoto, was wiped out by the first battalion. There was no longer an organized Kwantung Army along the entire defense line along the river, which could stop the first battalion from attacking...>

In less than 10 minutes, the Kwantung Army's carefully built defense line along the river was completely under the feet of all the officers and soldiers of the first battalion of the 223 regiment.

"The camp, all the little devils in the camp have been wiped out...>

After a short period of excitement, the commander of the first battalion quickly calmed down.Facing the deputy battalion commander, he decisively ordered: "Old Wang, next, our first battalion still has a lot of things to do... >

"All the troops directly under the battalion headquarters are all left to you, stick to the defense line along the river, and wait for the follow-up main force...>

"Three infantry companies are directly divided into three, and the frogman squadron responsible for intercepting the Kwantung Army's Sinuiju reinforcements is quickly reinforced...>

The order was issued, and the three infantry companies under the first battalion were quickly divided into three.Along the direction where the sound of gunfire sounded from the rear, he quickly rushed out of the defense line along the river and disappeared into the vast night.

At this moment, Zhou Xingguo, who had already visited the riverside, received the signal from the First Battalion's successful landing in a very timely manner.

Seeing the three colored "color" flares flying off the other side of the Yalu River, a confident smile suddenly shrouded Zhou Xingguo's face.Facing the commander of the 223 regiment beside him, he ordered with a serious face: "Commander Wang, I will give you 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, all officers and soldiers of your 223 regiment must cross the river...>

"Yes, Master...>
