Cross Yalu River

As a highly educated Japanese middle- and senior officer, Iwamoto Nakasa has never believed in the so-called gods. In his eyes, the great god Amaterasu, who is widely circulated in the army, are all politicians and senior military officials who deliberately fabricated tricks to deceive grassroots officers and soldiers in order to win and boost morale of the troops.

Since there is no help from the gods, the artillery fire of the Ninth Army is so accurate. Then, there is only one reason that seems almost impossible to appear in my opinion: the artillery troops of the Ninth Army on the other side of the Yalu River have successfully mastered the deployment maps of all machine gun castles and artillery holes along the river through channels that they do not know...

What's more, in the back of their own, are hiding the eyes of countless Ninth Army artillery units. Through radio, the Ninth Army artillery units can be guided to the Ninth Army artillery units with more accurate artillery strikes.

The Ninth Army obtained the deployment map of the machine gun castle along the river defense line, and there was an observer of the Ninth Army's artillery behind him... Combined with the violent artillery fire attacks that the Ninth Army suddenly launched last night, but did not launch any conspiracy to attack troops. A huge combat idea suddenly came to Nakasa Iwamoto's mind, making him wake up from his shock and confusion.

Looking at the Chief of Staff in front of him, the rumbling cannons still sounded outside the command center. Iwamoto Nakasa said to himself in shock: "Yes, it must be like this... The Ninth Army must have secretly sent some elite troops across the Yalu River through last night's artillery bombardment to investigate our riverside defense line, it must be like this..."

"Your Excellency Commander. What you mean is that behind us is a large number of artillery observers of the Ninth Army..." the Chief of Staff asked incredible expression.

Iwamoto Nakasa nodded without comment and said, "This is for sure... Otherwise. Do you really think that the Ninth Army artillery unit has a joke like gods helping each other?"

Since the Ninth Army's artillery unit had a large number of artillery observers to assist in the artillery attack, the large number of secret machine gun castles built on the defense line along the river were no longer a secret for them.

Thinking of the only one who could rely on the machine gun castle in battle, he turned all of them into ruins under the opponent's precise shelling. A trace of fear suddenly appeared on Iwamoto Nakasa's face.

To the Chief of Staff, who had not yet reacted from his shock, he decisively ordered: "Chief of Staff, all machine gun castles and anti-aircraft holes along the river defense line are no longer safe for our warriors... In order to make the frontline infantry survive artillery fire as much as possible, to welcome the possible crossing attack by the Ninth Army, immediately issue an order to each department: all frontline troops should immediately evacuate the hidden machine gun castles and anti-aircraft holes, and should be quick..."

"Yes, Your Excellency Commander..." The shocked Chief of Staff rushed out of the command center.

Looking at the Chief of Staff who quickly disappeared from the command department, Iwamoto Nakasa subconsciously picked up a telephone on the table in front of him, dialed the phone to his superior directly under Shinyizhou, and requested tactical guidance.

The Kwantung Army's defense line along the river. Teams of Kwantung Army, Yu Iwamoto Nakasa, ordered: in the fire of artillery, they quickly rushed out machine gun castles and anti-aircraft holes that looked like graves.

Located behind the Kwantung Army's defense line along the river. Seeing the Kwantung Army soldiers forward, they rushed out of the machine gun castle. They were completely exposed to the fierce artillery fire of the Ninth Army. Several artillery observers hidden behind the Kwantung Army's defense line along the river flashed a deep murderous intent on their faces without any hesitation. They quickly passed the radio station and informed the various changes in the front line of the Kwantung Army to the artillery command of the Ninth Army on the other side of the strait as soon as possible...

"Order, all field artillery and mountain artillery, launch artillery attacks immediately. Use incendiary bombs and high-explosive bombs to kill the vital forces of the Kwantung Army along the river defense line..." The commander-in-chief of the temporary artillery of the Liaodong Corps of the Ninth Army ordered with an excited expression.

Another harsh whistling sound of the air broke through the air sounded in the air. More than one hundred incendiary bombs and high-explosion bombs were like an airtight bullet net, quickly covering the Kwantung Army's defense line along the river.

The shells exploded, and the flying shells broke, and they harvested all the Kwantung Army soldiers blocking their surroundings from the defense line along the river. The incendiary bomb exploded, with the bomb point as the center. Within a radius of ten meters, whether it was the Kwantung Army soldiers or the weapons in the hands of the Kwantung Army, they were all shrouded in a sea of ​​fire...

Round after round, in less than five minutes, the Japanese defense line along the river, which stretched for one or two kilometers, was completely shrouded in thick smoke and fire. As for the more than 100 Kwantung soldiers defending this line, except for the more than 100 people who were lucky enough to withdraw from the battlefield, all the remaining soldiers fell to their positions, either dead or injured, and their lives were unknown.

When the raindrop-like artillery shells continued to pour into the defense line along the Kwantung Army across the Yalu River, Jiang Baili, commander-in-chief of the Liaodong Corps, Zhou Xingguo, commander-in-chief of the frontier, and chief of staff Zhang Zizhong. The three of them also stood on the high ground where the command department was at the entrance of the command department, holding a telescope, and admiring the artillery feast in front of them with a smile.

Among them, the most shocking thing is undoubtedly Zhang Zizhong, who had just joined the Ninth Army. Looking at the Kwantung Army's defense line along the river in the telescope, which was completely covered by artillery fire. Commander Zhang Zizhong couldn't help but sigh: "I really didn't expect that in my lifetime, I could see that the ** team for me could have such a strong artillery force. The large Japanese army had no room for fight back..."

Commander-in-chief Jiang Baili responded with a smile: "Team Commander Zhang, the strength of my Ninth Army is far more than what I see on the surface. Over time, all kinds of secrets will slowly be exposed to you. You must know that the development goal of my Ninth Army has always been not to dominate the country. Instead, it is to strengthen China's national defense power and fight against the Japanese government as its ultimate goal. Therefore, I can tell you with certainty that choosing the Ninth Army is definitely the wisest choice in your life. And this choice can also make you famous throughout your next military career..."

Zhang Zizhong's face, as Jiang Baili's words, slowly showed a hot expression. A burst of rapid footsteps quickly rang out from behind. Before the three of them could turn back, the communications and staff members were anxious. It was already heard: "Report to Chief: The Frogman Squadron Called, all dangerous targets in the Kwantung Army's defense line along the river have been cleared. The troops can start attacking."

Suddenly, the commander-in-chief of the front enemy, Zhou Xingguo and Chief of Staff Zhang Zizhong, quickly shifted to Jiang Baili, waiting for the order of commander-in-chief of Jiang Baili.

In two seconds, after just under two seconds of waiting, a decisive expression appeared on Jiang Baili's face. He said in a firm tone to his two subordinates: "Teacher Zhou, Commander Zhang, next is the time for you two to show off..."

"Now I order all participating troops to launch an attack immediately according to the scheduled plan..."

After saying that, a pair of sharp eyes swept across the two of them directly. He spoke with a majestic look on his face: "Team Commander Zhou, Commander Zhang, I, Jiang Baili, are at the command center, waiting for the good news for you two. Let the Kwantung Army on the opposite side try again the unstoppable powerful combat power of my Ninth Army..."

The two men's feet suddenly closed together. After saluting Jiang Baili, they loudly promised: "Please rest assured. The Liaodong Corps guarantees to complete the task and win the first battle. Teach a lesson from the Kwantung Army on the other side..."

On the Yalu River, more than ten small boats carrying all the officers and soldiers of the 1st Battalion of the 223rd Regiment were already lined up. They stopped by the river, waiting for the arrival of offensive orders.

Looking at the darkness of the Kwantung Army along the river on the other side of the Yalu River, the defense line along the Kwantung Army was shrouded in a blink of an eye. All the officers and soldiers of the battalion showed expressions of expectation and excitement on their faces. Because they were confident that under such fierce artillery fire, their next attack would definitely win.

The order of "Start the attack..." did not make the officers and soldiers of the first battalion wait for too long. Zhou Xingguo, commander-in-chief of the front enemy, quickly moved closer to the defense line along the river with excitement and expectation, and was preparing to cross the river with the main force. His offensive order had been transmitted to the battalion commander of the first battalion through radio.

After receiving the order, the battalion commander of the first battalion was quickly covered with an excited expression. Without giving any speeches to hundreds of subordinates, he directly picked up a signal gun that had been prepared long ago, pulled the trigger in front of the sky...

Three signal flares of different colors flew into the sky with a whistling sound. Finally, three crisp explosions were made at the highest point of the entire flight trajectory.

As three gorgeous fireworks unfolded in the dark night, more than a dozen small boats loaded with officers and soldiers of the Ninth Army were like swords left, quickly sailing towards the other side of the Yalu River.

At this moment, under the cover and blocking of more than 100 artillery artillery of various caliber in the Liaodong Corps, the entire Kwantung Army's defense line along the river, and the more than 100 Kwantung Army soldiers who still survived were unable to see the situation on the Yalu River.

More than a dozen small boats loaded with soldiers of the Ninth Army easily crossed the center of the Yalu River and rushed towards North Korea without any resistance.

"Machine gun cover... Brothers, prepare to land..." A loud shout rang out in the middle of the boat. Each boat spewed at least three tongues of flame forward.

Each boat had three flames, and the more than ten small boats were all added up, which was only about forty flames. Forty hot flames were lined up in a row, quickly swept across the Kwantung Army along the river defense line on the other side of the Yalu River. More than ten small boats loaded with officers and soldiers also quickly moved closer to the shore under the cover of these flames, just like unstoppable swords.

"Hearing... A huge friction sound sounded from the bottom of the boat. The boat driving at high speed rushed directly to the beach under the action of inertia, and finally stranded on the bank of the river. As long as the officers and soldiers squatting in the boat jumped off the boat, they could directly land on the shore to launch an attack.

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

Another loud shout came out from the battalion commander of the first battalion. The battalion commander took the lead. While jumping off the boat he was riding on, he picked up a submachine gun hanging around his neck. He shot a hot tongue of flames at the closest Kanto Army defense line along the river...

"Dadadada..." It was almost like a battalion of submachine guns or semi-automatic rifles, and in just a few seconds, it shot at least thousands of bullets at the frontier positions of the Kwantung Army, which were completely covered by gunpowder smoke.

The rain of bullets like a splashing water came down, and the defense line along the river stretched for two kilometers, after the fierce artillery fire just now, even if the surviving Kwantung Army was still hit by such a dense rain of bullets.

The officers and soldiers of the Ninth Group Army, holding submachine guns and semi-automatic rifles, were like tigers going down the mountain, quickly rushed towards the Kwantung Army's defense line along the river after the baptism of bullet rain...

Until this moment, following the commander-in-chief Nakasa Iwamoto, he luckily avoided the more than 100 remnants of Kwantung Army who had just been bombarded. He had the opportunity to see the first wave of offensive troops of the Ninth Army that had successfully landed on the shore and rushed to his defense line along the river...

The defense line along the river is lost. It is certain that the rank of colonel who is about to be obtained will definitely be lost. At the same time, facing the responsibility of lying about military information and results, my military career will also be lost.

Thinking of this, Iwamoto's Nakasa's face suddenly turned pale. He also secretly swears in his heart that no matter what, no matter how much the price he pays, he must guard the defense line along the river...

Thinking of this, a strong murderous aura suddenly enveloped Iwamoto Nakasa's face. He ordered mercilessly to the more than 100 subordinates who still survived in front of him: "Baga, why are you still stunned here... The Chinese have already landed. Now I order you to launch a counterattack immediately, and you must drive all the Chinese who landed in the landed into the Yalu River..."

"Start a counterattack now. Kill and give it to..."

Amid the roars of several officers, even if they knew that they would definitely die in the battlefield when attacking now. However, facing the almost harsh military discipline within the Kwantung Army, more than 100 Kwantung Army still carried the despair before their death, holding the bayonet rifle, screaming and rushing towards the river defense line that was close to the close...

"The warriors of the Great Japanese Empire, kill them for victory..."

"The warriors, the Chinese are all cowards. They rushed to the position and drove them into the Yalu River to feed the fish..."

Various roars, roars before death, catharsis sounds... In the counterattack formation formed by more than 100 Kwantung Army, it suddenly sounded. On the battlefield filled with smoke, coupled with the cover of night, the officers and soldiers of the first battalion of the 223rd Regiment of the Japanese had not noticed this little Japanese. After hearing these "dog barking", they turned their attention to more than 100 Kwantung Army almost at the same time.

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 that were getting closer and closer to him, and shouted with his eyes lit up: "Damn it, it's the Japanese, there are Japanese here..."

"Brothers, don't be polite to me. I'll greet the Japanese devils with all the bullets..... Everyone has them. I will beat me hard, without leaving any one, quickly seize the Japanese defensive line along the river... and fight..."

The order was issued, hundreds of flames and hundreds of bullets, like rain, quickly enveloped more than one hundred Kwantung troops. The more than one hundred Kwantung troops who had already felt that death was approaching had no time to react, and they were cut to the ground in pieces.

Of course, Iwamoto Nakasa, who was defending his position at all costs, was also among the group of Kanto soldiers. In front of the bullets, the principle of equality for everyone was directly reflected in this almost unilateral massacre. Faced with the dense rainy bullets, even though several guards wanted to block the bullets shot from the front, there were still several bullets, and they shot them hard into Iwamoto Nakasa's chest...

"Shit and shit..." When a few bullets shot into the body, it was clearly heard and spread to Iwamoto Nakasa's ears. A trace of pain quickly spread throughout his body. Iwamoto Nakasa, as the commander-in-chief, could even clearly feel that his limited physical strength and energy were disappearing at a rapid speed.

"This... is going to die... No, I'm not willing to...." Thinking of the rank of colonel who had not yet obtained it, and his future. Iwamoto Nakasa, the highest commander of the Kanto Army's defense line along the river, stared at his eyes with the fear of death before his death, and fell on the road to counterattack without any regrets.

The last force in the commander-in-chief Nakasa Iwamoto was destroyed by the first battalion. There was no longer a built-in Kanto Army in the entire river defense line, which could block the first battalion's offensive pace...

In less than ten minutes, the carefully built defense line along the river by the Kwantung Army was completely at the feet of all the officers and soldiers of the 1st Battalion of the 223rd Regiment.

"Battlehouse, all the Japanese in the position have been cleared..." The deputy battalion commander of the first battalion, with an excited face on his face, rushed to the battalion commander and reported.

After a brief excitement, the battalion commander of the first battalion quickly calmed down. He ordered decisively to the deputy battalion commander: "Lao Wang, next, our first battalion has a lot to do... In this way, you immediately inform the front enemy command of the radio station that we have occupied the Kwantung Army's defense line along the river. I hope that the subsequent main force will cross the Yalu River as soon as possible..."

"All the troops directly under the battalion department will be left to you, stick to the defense line along the river, and wait for the subsequent main force..."

"Three infantry companies, divided into three directly, quickly reinforce the frogman squadron responsible for intercepting the Kwantung Army's Xinyizhou reinforcements... We will divide the troops immediately without waiting for me..."

The order was issued, and three infantry companies under the first battalion were quickly divided into three. In the direction of gunfire sounding sounded from the rear, they 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 a very timely signal from the successful landing of the First Battalion.

Seeing three colored signal flares that quickly took off on the other side of the Yalu River, a confident smile suddenly enveloped Zhou Xingguo's face. He looked at the commander of the 223rd regiment beside him and ordered with a serious face: "Captain Wang, I will give you twenty minutes. Twenty minutes later, all the officers and soldiers of your 223rd regiment must cross the river..."
Chapter completed!
