Let’s talk about Kunizaki Ton.

The old devil is already in a much better mood. He is discussing with Nami Toshiro and Usa Mitsuru and where to go? Of course, it is the way to Nanjing!

Usa Mitsunobu pointed to the map and said, "Captain, you can completely divide the troops into two groups, along the Shanghai-Hangzhou Highway and the Shanghai-Hangzhou Railway at the same time. Infantry and lighter equipment marched along the road with the baggage corps, and heavy equipment was promoted along the railway line through the captured rail cars, which could save at least half of the time!"

Na Jian Minro nodded and said, "The most conservative estimate is that I can arrive in Jiaxing in three days!"

Usa Mirō continued: "After arriving in Jiaxing, we can turn the road north to advance towards Pinghu, pass Pinghu, and then attack along the south bank of Taihu Lake to Wuxing. All of this can be maneuvered from the highway!"

Namiji Toshiro agreed deeply: "This way the marching speed can be greatly accelerated!"

"Soga." Kunizaki Ton nodded slightly and said, "But Na sees you and Usa Mikun, have you ever thought about it? This speed of marching has greatly accelerated, but can the supplies keep up?"

"Hayi!" Usami said with a heavy blow, "I have thought about it."

"Nani, have you thought about it?" Usa Mirō's answer surprised Kōzaki Dora a little, and he asked again, "Then Usa Mirō, do you have any good solutions?"

"Hayi!" Usa Mirō paused and replied, "Let the baggage corps reduce the carrying amount of food and various consumables, and free up all the transportation capacity to carry ammunition."

Na Jianminro said, "So how to solve the rations?"

Usa Mitsuru had a fierce light flashing in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Cook it on the spot!"

"Yo Xi!" Kunizaki nodded happily and asked again, "But even if all the transportation capacity of the baggage corps is freed up, I can only carry the ammunition needed for the detachment for half a month or a large-scale battle. Is this enough?"

"Hayi!" Usa Mirone said, "The ammunition required for a large battle is enough!"

After a pause, Usa Mirō said again: "From the current perspective, even if the main Chinese forces on the Songhu battlefield are not surrounded and annihilated by the Imperial Army, they will definitely suffer a major defeat. Therefore, on the way to march towards Nanjing, our detachment will not encounter too much resistance, and the consumption of ammunition is almost negligible."

"Yo Xi!" said Kunizaki Dora happily, "that is, our detachment will only be subject to resistance from the Chinese army when the final attack on Nanjing. In this way, the ammunition reserve required for a large-scale battle is indeed enough!"

Speaking of this, Guozaki's eyes suddenly showed strange excitement, and he had no doubts anymore.

After pausing, Kōzakito said again: "Then now, there is only one last problem left, that is, after dawn, eliminate the Chinese soldiers in Jinshan City as soon as possible..."

However, before the words were finished, fierce gunfire suddenly sounded outside.

"Hmm? Where did the gunshots come from?" Kunizaki Tok couldn't help but be stunned.

Usa Mitsuru listened for a moment and replied: "Captain, the gunshots come from the city!"

"Inside the city?" Kōzaki Denton's face changed slightly at the time, and he immediately shouted in a low voice, "Baga, the Chinese army is going to break through!"

"Don't worry, the Chinese army cannot break out!" Na Jian Minro said coldly, "Not to mention that the 3rd Infantry Battalion has surrounded the positions of the Chinese army. Even if the Chinese army breaks through the defense line of the 3rd Infantry Battalion, there are still towering city walls waiting for them on the periphery, and they cannot escape!"

"Even if this is the case, you still cannot be careless!" Kunizaki Ton said in a deep voice, "Order."

Natsuro and Usa Mitsuru quickly straightened their bodies, then closed their feet and made a loud bang.

Kunizaki Ton said again: "Usa Mikun, the 1st Infantry Battalion must guard the north and south city gates and the gaps in the city walls. The city walls must also send troops to garrison. The Chinese army will never be allowed to cross the city walls!"

"Hayi!" Usami bowed his head solemnly.

...

The 367th Regiment's breakthrough battle has officially begun.

The breakout route chosen by Zhong Yi was very tricky, which happened to be the junction of the two Japanese infantry squadrons. There was a long distance between them to go straight, so the advancement was very fast.

But in order to pursue speed, heavy equipment has to be thrown away, such as war defense cannons.

The mountain cannon was very reluctant to let go, holding his beloved 37mm caliber war defense cannon, and refused to blow it up.

"Commander-in-chief, take the cannons away for me!" Shanpao begged, "It would be a pity to blow up such a good combat defense cannon. If you can take it back, it will be of great use in the future!"

Zhong Yi didn't say much nonsense, and directly untied two grenades from Xiao Anzi's waist, tied them with a strap, and then wrapped them on the cannon barrel of the war defense cannon, and pulled the fuse without hesitation.

The mountain cannon could only run dozens of meters away with tears in his eyes.

The next moment, an explosion came from behind.

I looked back quickly and saw that the gun barrel of the war defense gun had been blown into a mess.

"Damn it!" Shan Cannon cursed, threw the backpack full of shells on his back to the ground, then pulled the fuse of a grenade, stuffed it into the backpack and ran forward.

The cannons are gone, what's the use of carrying shells?

A few seconds later, a huge earth-shaking explosion came from behind. The mountain cannon looked back while running and saw a huge cloud of mushrooms soaring out of the gate of the Yao family courtyard.

Several Japanese soldiers who rushed over from the thorns were immediately bombed.

Zhong Yi shot a random shot and shot a Japanese man who rushed out of the alley on the right. He turned his head and said to the mountain cannon: "Don't be sad, I'll turn around and make a better American war defense cannon for you!"

"Commander-in-chief, this is what you said!" Shanpao said anxiously, "Don't cheat."

"I keep my word!" Zhong Yi said, "In addition to combat defense cannons, there are also large-caliber howitzers!"

"Large caliber howitzer?!" Shan Cannon's eyes lit up, and he didn't fly away because of the frustration caused by the bombing. He asked with anticipation, "How big can it be?"

Zhong Yi asked back: "How big do you want?"

Shanpao replied: "Can it have a 105mm caliber?"

"Can 105mm be considered a large caliber? It's far from it!" Zhong Yi laughed and said, "No matter how much you want it, you need a 150mm caliber! I'll get you a howitzer regiment in the future!"

Shanpao was happy when he heard this and said silly: "Then I won't become the leader?"

"This is a must." Zhong Yi said, "Shan Cannon, listen to me. In less than three years, you will definitely become the most powerful artillery commander in the history of the National Revolutionary Army!"
