Chapter 267: A fatal blow(1/2)
"Charity, charge!"
Although batches of soldiers fell down, Ichiro Tojo felt extremely painful.
But, he can't stop.
If you cannot succeed in one blow, once the army is surrounded, it will be completely wrong.
Therefore, Ichiro Tojo could only endure the pain and deliver the soldiers one by one.
After all, the soldiers' continuous charges have achieved results.
That is, the weapons on the enemy's frontier positions have increased temperatures due to continuous shooting and the fire density has been reduced.
Like conventional light machine guns, the barrel needs to be replaced frequently.
If the temperature of the cannon chamber is too high, the cannon must be stopped to cool down to prevent the chamber from exploded, etc.
Therefore, taking advantage of the reduction of the enemy's firepower density, constantly charge, and constantly narrow the distance between the enemy's frontier positions, there is hope for breaking through.
As long as you get close, the Emperor soldiers can take advantage of their melee combat.
However, the firepower density has been reduced, which is only relative.
A heavy machine gun with superior performance is different and can continue to shoot.
With the strafing of heavy machine guns, most soldiers fell under the muzzle of heavy machine guns.
Such a large casualty will be a heavy blow to morale.
The Japanese soldiers were fine, but they were brainwashed with the Bushido spirit and were still charging forward without fear of death.
But the Imperial Army is different. They used to surrender to the Japanese, and many of them also wanted to survive.
Now being forced to die is contrary to their original intentions.
Even though Ichiro Tojo was threatened first, even though their families were still held by the Japanese, the ants were still alive, let alone people.
In this case, a large number of passive slacking off begins to occur.
Either they deliberately slowed down their pace with the charge of the Imperial Army soldiers, or they hid in the corpse and pretended to be dead, or even someone retreated directly, etc.
But everything was futile, and Ichiro Tojo released the supervisory team.
The gunshots of the supervision team kept ringing, and the soldiers of the Imperial Army who were passively slackened were shot and killed.
Speaking of which, it is also ridiculous.
There was obviously not much ammunition, but the Japanese Supervisors still had ammunition to shoot and kill their own people.
"Damn it, I've been a bloody disaster for eight lifetimes."
"We just want to rebel now, and there is no possibility. We have no ammunition."
"Dog gods, I really don't treat us as human beings."
...
Resentment spread rapidly in the Imperial Army's ranks.
"Commander Hiroshi, Ichiro Tojo is taking a desperate bet." Through the telescope, watching the scene of the devils rushing over to die on the front line, a staff officer smiled at Hiroshita.
"If Ichiro Tojo doesn't break through with this aura, it will be impossible for him to break through later." Hirosaki's expression was calm, and Tojo Ichiro had no choice at all.
"Commander Bo, until now, the Japanese planes have not appeared. Does the Japanese military headquarters really want to give up the Tojo Ichiro army?" The staff officer questioned.
"It's not easy to say until the end." Bo Zuoyi said that although the 18th Army had air defense weapons, Bo Zuoyi would not dare to be absolutely sure that the Japanese would not send planes until the end.
"Commander Bo, the weapons and ammunition in the frontier positions are consumed too quickly and reinforcements are needed." Someone came over and reported to Bo Zuoyi.
"I have sent someone to send him here." Bo Zuoyi calmly. Not only did he send someone to deliver ammunition, but he also had to replace the combat troops and replace them with new troops.
After all, the troops are also very tired when fighting continuously.
Facing the attack of Ichiro Tojo, in order to maximize the morale and combat effectiveness, we must give full play to the advantages of wheel battles as much as possible.
The troops took turns to rest.
"Commander Bo, I have a new idea." The staff officer observed the battlefield and found a scene where a large number of soldiers of the Imperial Army were shot and killed by the Japanese supervising team.
"Do you want to instigate the Imperial Army in the last battle?" Bo Zuoyi smiled directly.
"That's right, Commander Bo, the Imperial Army was forced to die, and was passive and slacking off. In this case, if we are willing to give them a chance, a large number of people will definitely surrender." The adviser said.
"Don't worry." Hirosaki waved his hand, "I'm not too late to do this when Ichiro Tojo's tricks are finished."
Hirosaki Yoshi of course knew that as long as he could instigate the Imperial Army, Tojo Ichiro's troops would soon fall into internal strife.
After it is done, maybe the battle can end sooner.
But now is not the time.
The Japanese Supervisor Team is still shooting and killing the Imperial Army and is still intimidating.
At this time, the Imperial Army had no chance.
It will take until dark before the Imperial Army will have a chance.
At that time, even the Jinsui Army needed to instigate the rebellion, and the soldiers of the Imperial Army themselves would find opportunities to come and surrender.
Moreover, you have to be on guard against the fact that you can make a move.
What should I guard against?
That is to prevent the Japanese soldiers from sneaking into the surrendered Imperial Army. If the trouble is not good, it will be bad if the Japanese soldiers make a bloody path.
...
Headquarters of the 18th Army
"Lao Peng, this is the intelligence that the intelligence officer brought back from the Jinsui Army." The Chief of Staff handed the newly arrived telegram to the Deputy Commander-in-Chief.
The deputy commander-in-chief took it and looked at it, and smiled and said, "Ichiro Tojo does not have airplanes, cannons, tanks, what can he do to break through Hirozuoyi's defense line!"
"Yes, Ichiro Tojo cannot break through the powerful fortifications of the Jinsui Army without attacking weapons and ammunition. If he cannot tear open the defense line, he cannot leave." The Chief of Staff nodded, "Of course, the premise is that the Japanese planes should not send shells."
"Xiao Wu is waiting for the Japanese plane to come, but I guess Gangcun Cining will definitely not dare to send planes to take risks." said the deputy commander-in-chief.
"If the Japanese want to send planes, Ichiro Tojo and Hirosaki will have to send ammunition before the fight begins. But it has not arrived yet. I guess the Japanese Army is busy arguing now." The Chief of Staff also nodded.
"What is the situation of the two divisions trapped in the mud in the Japanese now?" asked the deputy commander-in-chief.
"They are hurrying to repair the bridge." The Chief of Staff said, "Every time the Japanese want to repair the bridge, they will be bombed by the Jinsui Army. As long as the bridge is not repaired well, the Japanese divisions will not come over, unless they take a detour. If they take a detour, it will take half a month. At that time, Ichiro Tojo will be cold."
"Now Yoshio Shinozuka's first army can no longer squeeze out troops, and Tojo Ichiro's army is also trapped. It is the fish on the Hirosaki chopping board. Now it is the time for us to carry out the attack on the Shota Line." The deputy commander-in-chief said, "After preparing for so long, the time is finally ripe."
"Yes, if we don't hurry up and break the blockade, we will be trapped in the mountains and sooner or later we will be in vain again." The Chief of Staff nodded.
"However, if the two Japanese divisions trapped across the river cannot handle it, when we launch the Zhengtai Line raid, they will attack us if they don't make a good deal." said the deputy commander-in-chief.
"Those are two Japanese divisions." said the Chief of Staff, "If our army forces to fight, it will inevitably be severely damaged and will not be able to engage in a sabotage battle."
"It seems that this must be..." Before the deputy commander-in-chief finished speaking, he saw Li Yunlong coming.
"Li Yunlong, if you don't stay with Xiao Wu, what are you doing in the headquarters?" The deputy commander-in-chief immediately looked solemn.
The sample gun of AK47 has been sent to the rear, and the leaders of the rear have given a very high evaluation and asked Xiao Wu to be transferred as soon as possible.
Although Wu Ze is very safe now, there are two brigades around him to protect his vigor.
But as the brigade commander of the New First Brigade, Li Yunlong should always stay where he should stay.
"Boss, don't be angry. Xiao Wu asked me to come." Li Yunlong explained.
"Xiao Wu asked you to come, what did you ask you to do?" The deputy commander-in-chief's tone immediately slowed down.
"Hehe." Li Yunlong laughed and said, "Xiao Wu said that now Ichiro Tojo's army is trapped, and Yoshio Shinozuka can no longer send more troops. Now it is the opportunity to take over the Taiyuan Arsenal and Copper Smelting Factory."
"I don't agree with this matter." The deputy commander-in-chief refused directly. "Although Ichiro Tojo's army was trapped, there were still two Japanese divisions. At this time, we went to attack the Taiyuan Arsenal and Copper Refining Factory. Even if we succeeded, the two Japanese divisions came over and how could we bring the things back?"
The deputy commander-in-chief of Taiyuan Arsenal and Copper Smelting Factory was of course jealous.
But there are two Japanese divisions here, so this job is not enough now.
"Are you just two Japanese divisions? They will fall down in a short while." Li Yunlong said lightly.
"Two Japanese divisions fell down by themselves?" When the deputy commander-in-chief and the chief of staff heard this, the two immediately smelled something, and 80% of them were Wu Ze doing something.
The two Japanese divisions could be knocked down at once. The Chief of Staff and the Deputy Commander-in-Chief looked at each other and almost rushed out: "Tell me quickly, what's going on."
Li Yunlong presented a document: "Xiao Wu has written it here, let's take a look at the two bosses."
The Chief of Staff and the Deputy Commander-in-Chief grabbed the document almost like a snatch, and opened it and took a look.
In an instant, the two of them had their eyes wide open: "This, this, this... can they do this?"
According to the description in the document, plague diseases will soon begin to spread among the two divisions of the Japanese.
Plagues have been the biggest taboo of military strategists since ancient times, and even the country's taboo.
The plague will take away countless lives, thousands of miles of naked land and thousands of miles of uninhabited people, which is common.
As long as the plague becomes popular, not to mention two Japanese divisions, even ten Japanese divisions will have to be abandoned.
Moreover, once these two Japanese divisions are infected with plague, they will be a hot potato.
