The Iron and Steel Frenzy of the Republic of China

In fact, Zhu Bin's thoughts are no longer a secret. He has made similar remarks intentionally or unintentionally on different occasions, but most people treat them as a joke.

It is understandable when you think about it, although the struggle for power and profit these years has caused chaos in the world and the people are in dire straits, and it is impossible to count how many people died. Things are moved, and it is not easy to make waves.

But after all, there is a degree and a difference.Most of the time, the deaths they saw or caused were their own people, and most of them were helpless and worthless civilians and big soldiers. In the eyes of many bigwigs, their lives were not as good as their own. The dignity of a pet dog, isn't it all numbers when it dies?

But Zhu Bin said that he is Japanese, so it is completely different!

Don't accuse them of adoring foreigners and being boneless. These days, foreigners and Japanese don't take Chinese people seriously. You can be a member of one party, a party-state elite, noble enough to be like Wu Peifu, or Wang Jingwei. Waiting for political leaders, the Japanese dare to use it for medical experiments without psychological pressure, and they deserve it if they are killed--under such a serious gap, the so-called human dignity is really far away from ordinary Chinese!

That was the case at least a decade ago.

Now, although there is a clear sky propped up by Zhu Bin, most of the Chinese people feel that it is really different, but for thousands of years, the common people have no dignity and freedom, the slavery rule of the Qing Dynasty for hundreds of years, and the last hundred years. The bullying and oppression of the great powers has already made the people numb.Don't just accuse and ridicule them like some literary giants who stand up and talk without back pain, because these upper-class people who have drank foreign ink and eaten white rice have no idea that hundreds of millions of grassroots civilians are buried in the genes of life heavy sorrow!

For thousands of years, I have never had the opportunity to think about my own destiny and dignity, and I have never enjoyed the light and warmth brought by the so-called civilization and kingly way.How could it be expected that they would wake up naturally, people who didn't know a single word, and hadn't even traveled fifty miles, would suddenly become enlightened like the Sixth Patriarch of Zen?nonsense!

Subconsciously, almost everyone in China unconsciously puts themselves in a lower position than foreigners.Including those hot-blooded young revolutionaries, don't they still praise foreigners in their hearts?

Naturally, they value the lives of foreigners more than their own.So no one dared to believe what Zhu Bin said.

That's Japan!The third strongest naval power in the world!The powerful nation that has defeated China several times!Even though Big Boss Zhu defeated them a few times occasionally, but his background is still there, and his overall strength is so strong, wouldn't he still make a comeback in the end?Let people die, this joke is not funny at all!

Yes, they don't believe it.Not confident either!Besides, taking ten thousand steps back, even if Zhu Bin really has that ability, can you do it?There are 7000 million Japanese, half of whom are men?No matter how the dead light has to be more than 3000 million... What a cruel executioner can do this shit!

Today, Zhu Bin repeated the old saying, but the faint smile on his mouth looked extraordinarily creepy, reminiscent of the strategies and tactics that have been going on for a long time.Whether Yan Laoxi or Song Zheyuan.Whether Fu Zuoyi or Jiang Baili, suddenly realized: "This guy is not just talking! He is actually doing it!"

The evidence is right in front of you!

At the beginning of the war, he asked 170 million troops to go up in turns on the grounds of running in the troops.Instead of rushing forward by surprise, they used the battlefield of two thousand miles of mountains and rivers to squeeze the Japanese defense line little by little. Almost every kilometer advanced, a large number of Japanese troops fell on it!

Start with the Great Wall defense line.Until the invasion of Liaoning, it caused more than 30 Japanese main forces, more than 20 Korean and puppet troops, 20 Taiwanese soldiers and puppet Manchukuo soldiers!To put it bluntly, 1 people will fall down at a depth of one kilometer!

Most of the entire battle was carried out between the mountains and fields, and the fights and fights were dense and scattered. I don't know how many numbers can't be counted, and it lasted as long as four or five months. It turned again!

Then there was the second attack. In just one month, the combined Japanese and Korean troops had about 50 casualties. In addition to the results of the previous three battles at the Great Wall and Pingjin, the total number of casualties of the various armed forces of the Japanese army It has reached an astonishing 150 million!

What kind of concept is this!

According to statistics from the intelligence department, all the puppet, Korean, Taiwanese and Manchukuo troops in Northeast China are basically dead, and the death of pure Japanese elite troops is no less than 50!Later, there were hundreds of thousands of recruits casualties, which means that almost all the original standing divisions were disabled!Change it again!

In today's narrow area, there are still at least 50 Japanese troops crowded together to fight desperately. Depending on the situation, their demise is expected.Then after this war is over, the total casualties caused to the Japanese army will reach a terrifying 200 million!

In addition, during the half-year-long war, the Japanese civilians who moved to the Northeast suffered heavy casualties. Those who were too late to withdraw or went to the front line to work as civilian husbands were killed by shells.Today, most of them are crowded in several battlefields centered on Fengtian and Yongji, and some of them fled to North Korea early. It can be predicted that after the brutal battle, hundreds of thousands of casualties will not be a big deal.

People with discerning eyes like Yan Laoxi and Jiang Baili were even keenly aware that Zhu Bin's mopping-up strategy was to drive these people crazy, and then the 40 elites and thousands of tanks he deployed on the front line went to Tens of thousands of cannons and two thousand fighter planes can be used calmly and confidently. As a result... I am afraid that the black soil in the Liaohe Plain will turn red!

Do you want to be so ruthless... There seems to be no such big enmity between China and Japan!

The old men couldn't help but feel a little sour.Although what Japan has done in the past few decades is very dishonest. After being on the shoulders of the old suzerain, it has tossed unscrupulously and added a lot of humiliation. A lot of advanced Western knowledge came in, and these elites either went to study abroad directly or were influenced by it.There is a little bit of the Japanese brand on my body, so I have a little bit of daring.

As far as they think, no matter how China and Japan do not deal with each other, it is a brotherly dispute. In the past few thousand years, the Chinese elder brothers have always been bullshit.The little Japanese brother is outrageous!I have tossed and learned a few times.In recent years, it has been reversed, but it will be reversed soon!

Great China, it has a mind and a magnanimity.As long as there is a new distinction, Japan admits its mistake, and they can still go hand in hand!No matter how you say it, it is also a cultural lineage, with a strip of water....

What they represent is the mainstream view. If there is no Zhu Bin, it may be in the next hundred years.Both the top officials and the cultural circles had similar ideas. Although Japan had already caused tens of millions of deaths and incalculable damage to China at that time, the far-sighted upper-level figures still gave up the pursuit.It is estimated that in their view, doing so is beneficial to the long-term national policy facing the future, and it is not worth worrying about temporary conflicts.After all, China is a big country with a long history, and the time node is at least 60 years since Jiazi, and it has experienced many times in hundreds of years.Well that counts!

Well, they take the long view.Broad-minded.But Zhu Bin couldn't understand that kind of thing for the time being.He is a cosmic trash guy, and he never dreamed of leading the historical destiny of a country or a nation, nor did he have the ability to see through history and look a hundred years later, nor did he have that kind of thought at all.

The bosses who were stunned by his rhetoric didn't know how to persuade him for a while, it seemed that it was too late to change course at this time!Zhu Bin has completed all the deployment he wanted!

April 4.After completely repelling the Kwantung Army's second counterattack, the defense line on the right bank of the Liaohe River was finally fully opened. From the upper tributary to the vicinity of Yingkou, hundreds of pontoon bridges transported more than 21 elite soldiers. Fried thawed soil.Facing the mighty Kwantung Army's last lair --- Fengtian!

In Liaozhong County, the headquarters of the No.12 Division, which is in charge of face-to-face defense operations, and the dilapidated bank building, there are only two or three big cats and kittens left, and the tense and intensive telegrams and telephone calls are almost completely silenced. Looking for traces, even if there are combat staff officers and communications officers who come in and out from time to time, they all lower their voices, for fear of disturbing them, they are standing by the broken window, staring blankly at the gray sky through the sandbag and iron edge window. Division head, Seitaro Uemura.

The heavy artillery shells bombarded from the other side of the Liaohe River fell around from time to time. The loud noise and vibration caused by the explosion made the collapsed pieces of the reinforced stone building with the upper two floors destroyed keep rolling, and the sand and soil fell down along the cracks. , and even the accumulated raindrops dripped down the corners, beating out a messy rhythm.

There is faint thunder mixed with the sound of artillery, but the thunder in early spring is not enough to burst. Compared with the large-caliber shells that exploded nearby, the roar like landslides can make people's heart stop and short of breath. , It's too weak!However, the misty light rain is often rushed out of arc-shaped gaps by the round ballistic trajectory, which has no aesthetic feeling at all.

And that sky, rendered gray by the rising gunpowder smoke, was indeterminate. I really can't figure out where your Excellency, Division Commander, came from with such a good mood and looked at it with such enthusiasm.

"Division commander! The latest situation, the 24th brigade reported that their defense line was broken by the Chinese chariot troops, and they couldn't stop it. I'm afraid they couldn't stop the breach. Can you just move?"

The chief of staff came up to remind him with a dark face.

Uemura Kiyotaro was stunned for a moment, as if he just came back to his senses. After ten seconds of silence, he said in a hoarse voice: "At this point, we have no way to retreat! Behind is Fengtian, and this is the main road blocking China's progress .As long as there is a breath left, we must fight to the end! This is the destiny of being a warrior of the Imperial Army!"

"Understood! I'm going to convey the will of the lieutenant general!"

"Hmm! Go!" Uemura Kiyotaro nodded calmly and didn't say much.He believed that his deputy and the officers and soldiers below would understand his intentions.

The No.12 division is one of the six most elite divisions in Japan. It has been the permanent core since the empire set foot on the mainland to fight. Although it did not participate in as many battles as the third and sixth divisions, the honor is obvious.

What's more, the previous head of the division is the current commander of the Kwantung Army, Otozo Yamada. As his successor, he must stand up for the commander. The No. 12 division guards the gate of the Kwantung Army.In any case there is no going back.

But... Kiyotaro Uemura sighed secretly in his heart. In this case, the entire division, including himself, would probably be smashed to pieces on this fertile land!

The sharpness of the Chinese army's attack was unexpected! The No.12 Brigade's defensive force on the west bank of the Liaohe River was disabled after only holding on for three days!An infantry company that took the initiative to attack, and two artillery regiments, light and heavy.A joint assault force formed by a tank regiment was completely wiped out within twenty kilometers after rushing out. It was really tragic that there was not even a tenth of it left.

How did they do it?Uemura Kiyotaro didn't want to believe it at first, but now he does.Because just before, when he personally stood on the top of the city and looked from a distance, he could clearly see that the overwhelming shells fell wantonly like hailstones like money.Then the heavy tanks charged over, densely packed all over the mountains and plains, almost covering the field of vision, at least hundreds of them!

The sky was completely covered by enemy fighter planes. The roar of the propeller engines even covered the sound of thunder and explosions. The bombs dropped at one time blew up the forward positions of the 24th Brigade. A sea of ​​flames....

After the slanting wind and drizzle have passed.Broken chariots, twisted steel, and collapsed fortifications are everywhere.There are countless stumps and broken arms!

I don't know what shells and bombs the enemy used to blow out countless deep pits the size of ponds on the ground. Could it be that they actually carried the battleship's giant guns ashore?Even the tunnel five or six meters deep into the ground was directly pierced and blown up, and the one-meter-thick logs and one-meter-thick sandbags, plus the half-meter-thick reinforced concrete bunker were all blasted open.It's unimaginable.

"It's a bit unreconciled to lose like this!" Uemura Kiyotaro sighed silently.

Although some new divisions began to have unsteady deserters and surrenders, the No.12 division still deserves her designation and honor.After the division commander's order to fight to the end was issued, there were not many cowards who broke down and cried bitterly, but the frontline soldiers who were slightly shaken.As if unloading the burden, facing the slowly advancing armored forces, they steadily grabbed their weapons and stood ready!

In the forest in the east of the city, the last heavy artillery regiment that has been silent, the Kurume 24th regiment tore off the camouflage. The four brigades have a total of 48 artillery pieces, including 24 75mm field guns, 12 105mm heavy cannons, and 12 American devils. Supporting m1 long-legged Tom 155mm heavy howitzer!

This kind of establishment is usually placed in the armaments directly under the army level. Because of the rich and powerful support of the Yankees, these permanent divisions fighting close to the center have suddenly become rich, but they have not played much role yet.

There is only one reason, fear of being beaten!

The Japanese army still hasn't figured out why as long as the cannons on their side are fired, they will be counterattacked by counter-fire within a few minutes, and the accuracy is so high that it is outrageous!Even some artillery positions that were so well camouflaged that it was difficult for the Japanese army to find them would all be hit by their ultra-long-range retaliatory bombardment, and they would be blown up to pieces. It's really... I don't know what to say.

Up to now, all the main artillery of all sizes and calibers produced by the entire Japanese Army have basically been blown up, and they cannot even be allocated 150mm cannons!Without the support of the Americans, I am afraid they will have to use all 75 small artillery to confront the rocket launchers and heavy artillery on the opposite side!

Uemura Seitaro is very tenacious and has hidden this last force until now. He is about to retreat across the board. If he does not move his nest, he may be discovered within an hour.

"Fire! Kill all the Chinese!"

Crazy shouts suddenly sounded in the dense forest, and suddenly there was a heart-piercing howl like a pack of wolves howling at the moon. Not long after, the 48 cannons that had been waiting for a long time were fired one after another, and shells of three calibers shot into the sky at the maximum elevation Get up and go straight to the Chinese troops who are lining up to attack on the bank of the Liaohe River!

The huge 155 grenade had just been unloaded for less than five seconds. The anti-battery positioning radars installed on the three 6x6 heavy trucks behind the main attack force responded almost simultaneously. The sharp warning sound reminded the radar soldiers to pay attention to the ballistic trajectory and data on the screen. The quick-sighted staff passed the result to the heavy artillery position on the other side of the river almost in the next second!

Taking turns to attack, there are always more than one-third of the ultra-long-range heavy cannons ready to fire at any time, staring at the battlefield area with a radius of 60 kilometers with a 152-fold barrel.As soon as the radar reconnaissance data arrives, the artillery immediately adjusts the firing angle of the artillery according to the calculated target coordinates. The thick [-]mm barrel is slightly raised, aimed, and fired!

The dull roar shattered the rain, and the thick gunpowder smoke spread close to the ground in the concealed artillery position. The precision-guided artillery shells specially used for anti-battery rushed out, killing the 30th Artillery Regiment of the Japanese Army in less than 24 seconds. Overhead!

At this time, the 105mm cannon had only fired four rounds, and the 155mm howitzer had only fired two rounds!The artillerymen who had just taken over the weapons were not even fully proficient in operating them, so the retaliatory artillery shells hit them!

quick!Desperately fast!High precision!It's so high that it's dumbfounding!

The 152mm high-explosive grenade landed in retaliation, and the coordinate error detected by the radar was less than 15 meters!In the face of the explosive power with a killing radius of more than 100 meters, it is almost like a direct hit! There were several loud bangs in succession, and several heavy artillery fell into a sea of ​​flames one after another!

This is just the beginning!Less than a minute later, a soul-stirring howl came over the top, and it was a block of rockets!There are hundreds of rockets, with the density of one launcher corresponding to one gun position, live and intensive bombardment with twenty or thirty rockets, one guy goes down, and a dozen explosion circles with a diameter of 1 meters flatten the ground Then, a group of mushroom clouds rolled and rushed to the sky!

Looking below, more than 20 cannons were completely submerged in the steel storm and sea of ​​gunpowder and fire! (To be continued..)
