The Rehe mountains are high and the emperor is far away. No matter what he does, Lao Jiang is beyond his reach.

  Besides, now that I have a propaganda team in the direct line, they are promoting the will of the supreme commander every day, and those who are not in the direct line are beginning to be bewitched.Moreover, the treatment of his soldiers is higher than that of the national army, and the food is even higher than the international standard. This is something that Lao Jiang can't match at all. It would be strange if he was deceived and left.

  Tang Qingyu thought for a while, and sent a telegram to accept the establishment of the 35th Army of the National Revolutionary Army, but it was impossible for Tang Qingyu to hand over power.Now he is full-fledged/full-fledged, and his speech is full of toughness.

  It's really tough, other troops need Lao Jiang's support, but he, Tang Qingyu, doesn't need it at all.

  In this way, the current Jagged Army has become the 35th Army of the National Revolutionary Army externally, and it is still the Jagged Army internally.

  He is learning from Yan Xishan now. As the commander-in-chief of the second war zone, Yan Xishan was still not infiltrated by Chiang. of success.

  ------

  Without mentioning how Tang Qingyu and Lao Jiang played games, let's talk about Huludao first.

  The Ninth Division and the First Armored Division have advanced mightily to the surroundings of Huludao.

  Regarding the fall of Jinzhou and the annihilation of the 102nd Division and the 14th Mixed Brigade, the Japanese base camp was shocked collectively. It may be lucky that the first division was wiped out, but the second division was also lucky. ?

  The two major battles caused the Japanese army to lose nearly 60,000 people at once, 60,000 people, this is not a small number,

  In Japan's base camp, both the navy and the air force began to despise the army, clamoring for the incompetence of the army, especially the victory in the Battle of Taierzhuang some time ago, which made the army fall to the bottom and became the object of contempt of other services. talk about things. .

Chapter 149 Can this also be called the Marine Corps?

  Huludao is stationed by a fleet belonging to Hasegawa Kiyoshi. It has more than [-] marines, which is equivalent to the strength of an army wing.

  As early as the Meiji Restoration period in Japan, the Japanese Navy had formed a force similar to the Marine Corps.

  The Japanese Marine Corps is a specially organized force temporarily organized by the Imperial Japanese Navy for landing operations, and it belongs to the Japanese Navy.Because the Navy does not pay much attention to the preparation of ground forces, the equipment of the Japanese Marine Corps is not as good as that of the Army, so the Japanese Marine Corps is not the elite unit as imagined.

  The ground forces of the Japanese Navy are an unpopular part, just as the ground forces of the Nazi German Army are mainly the Army and the SS, and the air defense units, air force field divisions, and paratroopers are rare, but they also fought bravely to the death If you don't surrender, you won't give up much more than the army.

  Although the equipment of this more than [-] marines cannot be compared with that of the army, there are a large number of gunboats, destroyers and cruisers docked near Huludao, more than [-] large and small ships. force.

  Huludao is a very strategic location, so with the long-term presence of the navy, as a naval military station, it can support the Yellow River battlefield and monitor movements outside the pass.

  But soon, Huludao no longer belonged to the Japanese Navy.

  …………

  Huludao Naval Base.

  In the command post, Matsuzaka Shintaro is the highest officer of the Huludao base, with the rank of major general!He had just received the telegram, and he was taunting in the command post, while the chief of staff and the commander of the little devil were chatting and laughing.

  "Haha, that fellow Sakamoto Taiga is a stupid pig, oh no, not even a stupid pig, a majestic division with more than [-] people was beaten to pieces by the Chinese soldiers, it's really laughable, it's sad, It's a pity, the empire just raised a group of stupid pigs from the army for nothing, and our marines are better than those stupid pigs!" Matsuzaka Shintaro sneered the most.

  Chief of Staff Yoshikawa Shoma echoed from the side: "Yes, the army is getting worse and worse now, the war cannot be advanced, and the combat effectiveness is in a mess. The empire allocates so much military expenditure to them every year, which is simply exorbitant!"

  "That's right, that's right..." The other little devil's commanders echoed with their heads bowed.

  But the ridicule is ridicule, Matsuzaka Shintaro paused, put away the mocking application, and then said: "The loss of 60,000 people in the two wars of the army is a great loss for the empire, and it is also a shame for the empire, so this time , we want to wash away this shame for the empire!"

  "Hi! Your Excellency, Commander, we must take a look at the Chinese people this time. Our navy is not the crooked melons of the army!" Shoma Yoshikawa said coldly.

  Matsuzaka Shintaro suddenly said sharply: "It's time to give the Chinese army a hard blow, Yoshikawa-kun, where are the ninth division and the first armor of the Chinese?"

  Yoshikawa Shoushin said: "Your Excellency, Commander, we have arrived at Huludao two hundred miles away, and we can arrive here tomorrow."

  Matsuzaka Shintaro nodded: "Yaoxi, order the Marine Corps to set up a forward position 400 meters in front of Huludao. All ships are ready for the battle. We must wipe out the Chinese army tomorrow."

  "Your Excellency, Commander, it's just us. The other side has nearly 10,000 people soldiers and more than [-] tanks. Do you want to contact the aircraft carrier battle group in Shanghai?" The little devil's chief of staff, Shoma Yoshikawa, said palely.

  There are only these ships in Huludao. As for the aircraft carrier, they are all wandering around Shanghai. In preparation for the next battle, all kinds of carrier-based aircraft are ready.

  "The strength of a mere division and two hundred broken tanks are frightened by you. Can the tanks of the Chinese people block the bombardment of our gunboats?" Matsuzaka Shintaro said sharply: "Don't think that the tanks of the Chinese people will defeat the tanks of the Kwantung Army." If they are crushed, their tanks are powerful, that is the incompetence of the army, this time we must let them come and go!"

0 ask for flowers

  "However, Commander, according to intelligence, many of their tanks have 88mm tank guns and 75mm tank guns. The armor is also good. Are we being too hasty?" Yoshikawa Shoma reminded.

  "Baga, Chief Yoshikawa, are you as timid as the army? I have decided how to achieve great things without any responsibility. With my current military strength, I can completely deal with the Chinese soldiers who are dying here. Don't say any more! "Matsuzaka Shintaro cursed at Yoshikawa Shoma with an angry face.

  The next morning, at eight o'clock.

  The vanguard of Tang Qingyu's tank division, ten Tiger tanks and thirty Leopard tanks were advancing along the road, with the humming and rumbling of engines, raising dust all over the sky.The tanks were full of infantry, and each tank had more than a dozen people, hundreds of them.

 …  

  There is a motorcycle squad in front of the tank, about seven or eight vehicles, basically three-wheeled military motorcycles, each motorcycle has three people sitting on it, and a large-caliber collar is placed on the extended seat on the right. The machine gun, this machine gun can even penetrate the aircraft.

  These are all the troops that the tank unit had previously explored, and these motorcycles were used for the exploration.

  At this time, on the 001 Tiger tank, Eagle Fairclough was receiving a telegram from the headquarters, which said that the reconnaissance plane had found out that the Japanese army in Huludao was prepared, and ordered his tank to strike forward Wait for a tentative attack first.

  At the same time, the second telegram came again, which showed the deployment of Huludao's military forces in great detail, including how many ships there were and how many people were on board.

  As for why it was so detailed, Eagle Fairclough didn't bother to ask. Anyway, the information of the Iron Blood Army is very detailed. It is estimated that the information is top in the world.

  After seeing all the details of the little devil's military power, he crumpled up the telegram and threw it into a corner, then ordered to set off and head towards the weak point of the Marine Corps arrangement...

Chapter 150 A small-scale raid

  "Marines?" Eagle Fairclough shook his head and mocked, "With this equipment and strength, you dare to call it the Marine Corps. It's far worse than the Yankees, and even the Japanese army is inferior." Come on, the uncle will beat you up today!"

  Eagle Fairclough was looking forward to one thing in his heart, which was to have sex with the little devil's ship!He has no interest in the Marine Corps, and dares to challenge the armored division without even an anti-tank gun.

  The only thing that threatened Eagle Fairclough were the forty or so ships, and the guns on the ships were not given for nothing.

  Next, it is who is more powerful, tanks or ships.

  Since its first armored division was equipped, no matter which battlefield outside the pass, it has been invincible every time.

  Eagle "[-]" Fairclough knew in his heart that the armored forces mainly caused by the little devils were really not very good. The little devils focused on the navy and despised the army, so this equipment has never been able to keep up, and the tanks are all brittle. Pi, don't mention it.It would be impressive if his Tiger and Panther tanks took out Japanese ships.

  ------

  After half an hour.

  The cannon that shook the sky rang out.

  Eagle Fairclough led dozens of tanks, and in one charge, this group of marines lost hundreds of people, and then locked on two gunboats, and beat them indiscriminately. The 88mm and 75mm main guns , directly sank the two gunboats, and retreated quietly before they could react.

  Announced to Little Japan the arrival of the armored division of the Jagged Army.

  Fairclough was not in a hurry to attack, but retreated. The lone army went deep without the cooperation of other arms, and could only end up being targeted by the gunboat. He was not so stupid yet.

  The marines defending the outlying positions were the farthest away from the Huludao position. Dozens of tanks suddenly attacked and left suddenly, so fast that Little Japan didn't even have time to react.In the base, when a few young Japanese officers were still complacent, the sound of shelling suddenly came from the sky. Many officers looked at the sky and saw dozens of shells shooting directly in parallel.

  They were still thinking, how could there be shells, and the marines were guarding the front, and the tanks rushed over?

  They obviously regarded the Jagged Army's tank division as their tank, that poor ballistic distance.I don't want to believe that the Jagged Army's tanks can shoot so far, the result is obvious.

  A certain Marine Corps showing defense was slaughtered by hundreds, and then the base was in chaos. When they lost two gunboats, when they reacted, the gunfire stopped again, and the opponent's tank disappeared like a ghost.

  "Baga, let me check, what's going on, the opponent's tank didn't respond when it came, what are the marines doing!" Matsuzaka Shintaro roared with a ferocious face.

  It's unreasonable, it's unreasonable, it's a shame for the Japanese navy to beat him face-to-face without any power to fight back!

  ………………

  A piece of corpses was left on a defense line of the Marine Corps, and huge potholes were left on the position. These potholes were obviously caused by shells, and the instantaneous explosive force of the shells produced huge craters. .

  There were corpses lying there in disorder.

  The little devil in the blue-tone Marine Corps uniform is cleaning the battlefield, dragging away the dead bodies and burying them.

  At the same time, the little devil's weapons and equipment were also carefully collected. Each of the marines had a three-eight cap, but there were no heavy weapons, only a few grenades.Obviously this is the result of the Japanese navy's contempt for the army.

  Can such equipment hold the position?

  Obviously it is impossible.

  Thirty kilometers away, Fairclough's tank group stopped there, waiting for the arrival of the army behind them.

  A lieutenant of a motorcycle squadron reported loudly: "Report to the division commander, our follow-up troops are already 10 kilometers away from here, and they will arrive in [-] minutes."

  Fairclough, who got out of the tank to breathe, relaxed his face when he heard the report from his subordinates. He nodded, saying that he heard the assembly of 0 large troops, which meant a large-scale attack.

  The order this time is very clear, that is, to destroy the Japanese army in Huludao at all costs, even if Huludao is razed to the ground.

  Huludao's strategic location is very important. Tang Qingyu is rich and powerful, even if it is razed to the ground, he will hold Huludao in his hands.The big deal is to rebuild afterwards, he has no shortage of materials now.

  With the continuous development of the mining industry, his energy points are extremely sufficient.In addition to opening the shipbuilding factory, it can also be exchanged for some acceleration items.

  This battle must be won.

  After the Jagged Army's tanks made such a fuss, Huludao's base was mobilized. Although they were extremely arrogant at first, they were all veterans who had experienced battles. They knew in their hearts that the Jagged Army's tanks suddenly attacked and broke through. The defense line of the Marine Corps must be extremely strong in battle, they put away their contempt,

  The machine guns and anti-aircraft guns on all the ships are all facing the direction of the Jagged Army, all the ammunition is loaded, and the battle is about to start.

  The radio facilities on board have all been turned on.

  These little Japanese are really belated. They didn't use these things at first, and they paid the price for their contempt.

  After all the ships were in place, Shintaro Matsuzaka began to be arrogant again: "Don't worry, everyone, as far as their 1.8 broken tanks are more than two hundred, they will only succeed once, and then they will fail."

  Is it really a broken tank? It is estimated that the Japanese army will definitely vomit blood when they hear this sentence.

  It's no wonder that Matsuzaka Shintaro is full of confidence, because Huludao has two 205-ton heavyweight cruisers.This cruiser has 10 127mm caliber main guns, six 25mm caliber anti-aircraft guns, four torpedo tubes, can park three aircraft, 48 900mm anti-aircraft guns, and a crew of more than [-] people.

  Both of these cruisers are docked here, so Shintaro Matsusaka is quite confident.

  Little Japan, which has recovered its strength, is ready to make the Jagged Army pay a heavy price. .

Chapter 151

  Compared with the loss of the two gunboats, Shintaro Matsusaka didn't care.

  Gunboat is a separate type of warship, characterized by small tonnage, a small number of heavy guns, almost no armor protection, low freeboard, low speed, mainly sailing along the coast or in inland rivers, and its main task is to bombard targets on the shore.Its very low freeboard is not suitable for going to the open sea, its maneuverability is very poor, it is equipped with only a few heavy guns, and it cannot withstand the bombardment of real warships.

  However, the advantage of the gunboat is that it can drill inland rivers. It has a simple structure, low cost, and is very easy to build in surprise.So gunboats belong to a separate category of ships and cannot simply be classified into any other category.

  There are more than a dozen gunboats in Huludao, mainly to reinforce the Yellow River battlefield, enter the Yellow River, and bombard the shore targets of the Yellow River.So Matsusaka Shintaro didn't care much about the damage to the gunboat. His real anger was the sudden attack of the tanks, which left them unprepared.

  The instant death of hundreds of Marines was like a decoration.

 11 ………………

  The men and horses of the Ninth Division came slowly and joined the First Armored Division. They were not in a hurry to attack, because with them alone, there was only one dead end!Fifteen gunboats, two heavy cruisers of the [-]-ton class, and the others are light and medium cruisers. This is a very large scale, and there are countless guns on board. Only relying on them to do it, only the entire army is wiped out!

  It was only by taking advantage of the sneak attack just now that it was lucky to win a match. Eagle Fairclough knew this truth deeply, so he did not act rashly.He can despise the Marine Corps, but not the entire fleet.
