The Republic of Heroes

The meeting lasted for four hours, from noon to night, the two sides argued endlessly, and finally Wu Xiaoliang made the decision. For the time being, according to Fang Qidao's intention, after helping Malinovsky to drive away the Japanese, don't act rashly for now.And that night, he sent a report to the Second Division who had arrived at Temple Street, ordering Liang Yuchun to restrain his subordinates, restrain his emotions, and not to conflict with Malinovsky's people.

At ten o'clock in the evening, after Liang Yuchun received a telegram from the headquarters Yu Suidong ship, he finally let go of his hanging heart, and immediately ordered to attack the defensive measures built by the Japanese army after landing.Li Zejun's cavalry regiment took the lead and inserted from the flanks. Since the Japanese army deployed the main defensive forces in the direction of Temple Street where Malinovsky gathered a large number of troops, they were caught off guard by the Suidong Army's attack. In their view, it is said that this This army was a leaky fish intercepted by the navy, and it was already a lost dog. In addition, the Japanese army had always looked down on the squadron, so they didn't pay attention to Liang Yuchun's second division and Li Zejun's cavalry regiment.

Not long ago, Miyake Miyake, who was known as the youngest general of the empire, became a disgrace to the entire empire, and even the Imperial Navy suffered disgrace because of the capture of the Hanoi. Are those stupid Chinese people really so powerful?He believes that all of this is just a smoke screen released by the Soviet Russian army, and its real purpose is to divert the attention of the empire's revenge.

At this time, the supreme commander of the landing Japanese army was the 23rd Brigade of the Army Infantry, and Major General Nobuyoshi Muto, head of the brigade. , Considering security factors, the Ministry of the Army decided to only let him boost morale by name. The actual front-line commander is the army's new cutting-edge Major General Muto Nobuyoshi.

On the other hand, the 11th Infantry Regiment of Shigeru Honjo was on the defensive flank to monitor Malinovsky's movements. Li Zejun's cavalry regiment ran into these people, but they did not charge directly as usual, but stationed behind their horses. , Called the fire support of the artillery regiment of the division headquarters, and the hail-like 75mm Siyishan artillery shells plowed Honzhuang Shigeru's position like a plow.Li Zejun led his cavalry regiment and charged away roaringly.

Dazuo Benzhuang was stunned by the hail-like shells of the Four Mountain Cannon. Since when did the Chinese army like to use artillery?In all the descriptions of the Chinese army in the army, they are a group of cowards who are afraid of death. Their cannons are all decorations, and the shells are all used by the officers to eat their salaries. Why is the Chinese army in front of us different from the description? It seems that there are endless shells. Originally, his wing was only performing the task of monitoring the Soviet Russian army on the flank. The fortifications were extremely simple, but now it is very difficult for the Chinese army to take it as the main attack direction.

What surprised him even more was that after the rain of shells, the cavalry of the Chinese Army charged towards the Imperial Army like a gust of wind sweeping fallen leaves. This is unscientific. How dare cowards charge against the invincible Imperial Army?However, in the ensuing exchange of fire, he immediately realized how unreliable the description of the Chinese army he had obtained in the army before was.

It's just that he realized it a little late, and the cavalry regiment led by Li Zejun had already broken through the two lines of defense of Fan Zhuang with lightning speed.Attacking the position with cavalry was originally a suicidal attack, but the Suidong Army Cavalry Regiment used fast to fight slow, attacking them unprepared, and the Japanese army had several rivals in love, so the balance of the battle situation undoubtedly fell to Li Zejun.

"Immediately request artillery support from the brigade headquarters. We must intercept the follow-up troops of the Chinese. If we don't disturb their attack rhythm, the 11th Regiment will be in danger!" Realizing the seriousness of the problem, Ben Zhuangfan immediately ordered The staff officer sent power to Nobuyoshi Muto and asked for artillery support.To allow it to have a breathing space, and to counterattack.

However, at this time Muto Nobuyoshi has no mood to fight here. He has just received the last telegram from the Settsu: The fleet is all broken, I hope you can take care of yourself, long live the emperor!

What's happening here?Nobuyoshi Muto couldn't accept it for a while, and sent several telegrams in succession to inquire about the specific situation, but the radio waves seemed to sink into the sea, and there was no reply after waiting for a long time.Only then did he wake up, realizing that the situation of the entire 23rd Infantry Brigade had become extremely dangerous, so he immediately rushed to hold a secret meeting with the staff in a small area to discuss the next step of the brigade.

Due to the annihilation of the entire fleet, the local fleet has become a distant water that cannot quench their thirst. Now they have become a veritable solitary army.The second is to retreat to avoid the Russians.

An officer stood up and saluted, and said in a low voice: "The Imperial Japanese Army only fought to the death, and did not flee. If unfortunately defeated, our 23rd Brigade should break the jade to thank His Majesty the Emperor! We must not humiliate the Empire like Major General Miyake!"

The Miyake Regiment had become a symbol of shame for the empire, and he served as the captain of the Regiment with the rank of major general. It was rare in the army to have a high rank and low rank, which fully showed the respect and high expectations of the chiefs of the Ministry of War for him.It's a pity that even Yu Sui didn't have the courage to become a prisoner of the Chinese, which is an unprecedented shame and humiliation.Muto Brigade must not repeat their mistakes.

After the officer said that, he immediately won a lot of voices of support, but the voices of opposition were also quite harsh.

"When the backup is cut off, it is so stupid to do so, even more stupid than the Chinese people!" Another officer with the rank of lieutenant assistant spoke fiercely, and he was Ishida Shinichi attached to the staff of the 23rd Infantry Brigade.

"In the current situation, we can strategically give up the attack on Temple Street temporarily, and instead cross the Heilongjiang River to the north to avoid the Soviet Russian army. After the headquarters sends additional reinforcements, we will then go south in a large scale to respond to the reinforcements, and the event will be settled !"

Ishida Shinichi's plan is indeed tempting. It not only does not use jade pieces, but also preserves the honor of the Muto Brigade.

However, after a lot of rhetoric, the main fighting faction quickly took the upper hand. Most of the officers advocated taking down Temple Street, using the long-wave radio station in Temple Street to ask for help from the mainland, and then holding on to help.

At this moment, Honjo Shigeru sent a telegram asking for help, Muto Nobuyoshi read the content, and slammed the telegram on the table.Shinichi Ishida, attached to the General Staff Department, was on his left, and he picked up the telegram, looking at it with chills.

Ishida Shinichi and Honjo Shigeru are both graduates of the Imperial Army University, and they know their temper well, so they would not send this tense telegram for help unless it is absolutely necessary.How did the Chinese dare to attack the Imperial Army? Previously, the chiefs of the Ministry of War analyzed that the defeat of the Miyake army was likely to be caused by the Russians behind the scenes. Now that Temple Street is in danger, the cowardly Chinese should run away with their heads in their hands. , How, faced up to the difficulties and gave the Russians a helping hand?

Originally, Nobuyoshi Muto was leaning towards the strategy of capturing Temple Street and standing by for help, but now that the damned Chinese people have successfully launched a surprise attack on the flank of the brigade, the plan to successfully capture Temple Street is suddenly full of variables.

"Nobuyoshi Muto, Nobuyoshi Muto, how do you choose?" Muto brigade leader asked himself in his heart.
