Chapter 160 Annihilate the 56th Division! (First update!)
Basically the entire Lashio was bombed into rubble, and the intensity of the so-called street fighting also dropped significantly.
In particular, the Sichuan Army Corps is still fully armed. In addition to tanks, it can call for artillery support at any time.
It can be said that the attack went very smoothly, and they easily captured one third of Lashio without encountering any decent resistance.
Such a rapid attack caused a trace of doubt in Cun Yun at the rear.
“Something is wrong, something is very wrong.” Cun Yunsheng looked at the map in front of him and frowned slightly based on the feedback from the battlefield.
Although the Japanese army was frightened by the heavy artillery bombardment, it was not defeated so quickly?
There is obviously a problem.
But what the specific problem is, Cun Yunsheng has not figured out yet.
“What’s wrong?” Meng Fangliao asked in confusion as he didn’t understand what his family members were muttering about.
“The attack speed is really too fast.” Cun Yunsheng said with a sigh.
“The little devils are not the natives. Something is obviously wrong. Can’t you see it?”
Hearing this, Meng Fanlao thought about it and found that it was true.
In less than half an hour, one-third of Lashio was captured. This attack was too fast.
You must know that the 56th Division of the Japanese Army has more than 20,000 people.
Excluding the two regiments and the troops stationed in various places, there were tens of thousands of Japanese troops in Lashio.
The three front lines of defense amount to only about four to five thousand Japanese troops.
Excluding these, there should still be half the Japanese army in the city.
Even if half of them were killed by the heavy artillery bombardment, there would still be at least two to three thousand people in the city.
The results of it?
In half an hour, the total number of Japanese troops eliminated was only three to four hundred.
This number is really too small.
This aroused Cun Yunsheng's suspicion.
“Tuanzuo, something is indeed wrong. I compiled the battle report. In the past half hour, the total number of Japanese troops we destroyed was only more than 400.” Meng Fangliao said seriously.
“Well, it seems that Masao Watanabe is planning to play some tricks.” Cun Yunsheng nodded.
On paper, the Sichuan Army was invincible and won consecutive battles, but it eliminated very few effective forces.
“Are they preparing to retreat?” Meng Fangliao guessed.
"I don't rule out this possibility. I even suspect that he is planning to engage in some conspiracy." Cun Yunsheng nodded at first, and then said suspiciously again.
“When people are crazy, they can do anything.”
“You know, the honor of the 56th Division has been completely shattered by us. If you were him, you would definitely want to take revenge, right?”
Following Cun Yunsheng's analysis, Meng Fangliao couldn't help but nod.
“So what you mean is that there is a trap ahead.” Meng Fanxiao exclaimed as if thinking of something.
“Yes, it seems that Masao Watanabe should be waiting for our troops to arrive in front, so he abandoned so many blocks so quickly.”
“What a pity, he is reluctant to put out bait. How can he fish if he is reluctant to make a nest?” Cun Yunsheng sneered.
"Whenever he uses a thousand people as bait, I will take advantage of him."
Hearing this, Meng Fanlao couldn't help but roll his eyes.
How dare you think of a thousand people?
"Isn't the air force panicking? Let them touch the bottom of the Japanese army. I want to see what the Japanese army wants to do."
“In addition, each battalion and company will suspend the attack and defend the current defense line. After the artillery battalion has completed its rest, the artillery fire will be extended immediately.” Cun Yunsheng thought for a while and immediately made a reasonable arrangement.
“Yes.” Meng Fan replied, seeming to remember something, and asked doubtfully.
“What if the other party is covering the retreat of the main force?”
"Retreat? Where to retreat? Don't forget that Dong Dao from the reconnaissance camp and Xue Tian from the guard camp have never shown up. You might as well guess where they went." Cun Yunsheng glanced at the other party and spoke calmly. said.
Hearing this, Meng Fanxia understood instantly and gave a thumbs up at the same time.
“Tuanzuo, you still have far-reaching thoughts.”
Meng Fan was originally confused as to why these two most elite troops did not appear on the battlefield. Now that he heard this, he instantly understood that they must be waiting for the Japanese army on the only way to retreat.
On the other side, the rhythm of the attack in the city stopped, causing Masao Watanabe, who was hiding in the ruins, to frown.
“Has it been discovered?”
Since the street fighting plan has gone bankrupt, it is necessary to stop the Sichuan Army's attack and cover the retreating troops.
The best way is to lead the enemy into an ambush circle that has been laid out in advance.
In order for this plan to succeed, he personally sent half of his troops to various neighborhoods in order to lure the soldiers of the Sichuan Army into being fooled.
The results of it?
The offensive has stalled!
This makes me feel a little bit bad.
His understanding of the Sichuan Army has always been limited to a local motley crew with strong firepower.
Not much is known about its commander.
But now he always feels that this commander is not simple.
“Your Majesty, Division Commander, what should we do now?” A major asked respectfully, looking at Masao Watanabe.
"Keep waiting..." Masao Watanabe hadn't finished his words yet.
There was a roar in the sky, and four fighter planes were seen rushing towards this side.
The dive accelerated, and machine gun bullets fired wildly at the suspected building.
Da da da!
The machine gun bullet hit the Japanese soldier and broke it into two pieces.
Machine cannon fire, parents raised in vain.
If it is just a strafing attack, it may be an enemy reconnaissance.
After all, the Japanese army would also use this method.
As a result, the fighter plane turned in one direction and continued to straf the area.
Seeing this scene, Watanabe Masao's face was extremely ugly. He knew that he had been discovered.
“What a keen sense of battlefield.”
If the strafing from fighter planes is just an appetizer, then the falling shells are a feast.
The area where Masao Watanabe was located was severely attacked by heavy artillery.
The shells fell one after another, with a radius of destruction as large as a football field.
Although the buildings withstood some of the shock waves, as one building after another was destroyed, the lethality continued to increase.
More and more Japanese troops were beaten to death, and some booby traps were also detonated by artillery shells.
Boom, boom, boom!
For a time, the sound of explosions in this area resounded throughout Lashio.
He Shuguang couldn't help but clicked his tongue at the Sixth Battalion Death Squadron not far away.
“Damn, the little devil is so insidious. How many mines have been laid. If a large army rushes in, it will definitely be doomed.” He Shuguang was frightened for a while.
Had it not been for the sudden suspension of the attack, I am afraid that their suicide squad would have already penetrated.
What awaits them is a dense array of mines, and they will all be finished by then.
"The little devils are no longer cunning. You have to be more careful when fighting with them. This is what the regiment emphasizes. You must be careful. When you see a corpse, don't worry about anything and replenish your gun first." With that, Ma Yuan He shot at a corpse not far away.
Boom!
Maybe a booby trap was found, and the body was blown to pieces.
Seeing this scene, He Shuguang's scalp was numb. Even though he had experienced hundreds of battles, he was still a little scared at this moment.
As for those who play dirty tricks, even little devils are good at it.
Ma Yuan, who was next to him, was also startled. He was just trying to demonstrate, but he accidentally detonated a booby trap.
Feeling a chill on his back, Ma Yuan swore that the next time he saw a corpse, regardless of whether it had broken limbs or arms, he would shoot him twice.
“Be more **** careful.” Ma Yuan swallowed and said carefully.
"Yes." The members of the death squad did not dare to take it lightly. They were nervous and moved toward the area where the Japanese troops were.
Originally, they could wait until the bombardment was over, but the temptation of Masao Watanabe was too great.
As the saying goes, wealth can be found in danger!
It would be a great achievement if we could defeat the Japanese division headquarters and capture Masao Watanabe alive. Relying on the judgment of the impact point of the artillery shell, the death squads continued to advance forward with the help of the explosion of the artillery shell.
When you encounter a building with a closed door, throw a grenade directly through the window.
Wait until the smoke clears, then point the flamethrower directly at the door and pull the trigger.
There was a pitiful wailing sound coming from behind the door.
"You son of a bitch, you are so treacherous. You are hiding behind the door. How did you know?" He Shuguang was sweating coldly. He didn't expect that the little devil was so treacherous that he was hiding behind the door.
Hearing this, Ma Yuan casually replied, Tuan Zuo compiled the key points of street fighting.
That is, be careful that there will be enemies ambushing you behind the door, or there may be booby traps or the like.
To deal with this, the flamethrower is the most direct weapon.
After all, they are all wooden doors at this time. The instantaneous high temperature can burn the wooden doors to pieces in a short time, and the enemies behind them will also let out shrill wails.
If you don’t have a flamethrower, blow up the wall and never take the main entrance.
The shock wave of the wall explosion will cause the enemies behind the door to have a short period of stasis.
If you rush in at this moment, you can easily destroy the enemy.
“Well, can you let me feel this flamethrower?” Finally, He Shuguang couldn’t help but asked.
Hearing this, Pyro looked at each other in surprise.
Are you trying to compete with him for a job?
“I just want to give it a try.” He Shuguang scratched his head and said sheepishly.
"Okay, let's try it." Ma Yuan thought for a while and motioned to the Pyro to hand over the flamethrower behind him to He Shuguang.
With a resentful expression, the Pyro handed the weapon to the opponent and replaced it with a Thompson submachine gun.
After putting the flamethrower on his back and feeling the heavy feeling behind him, He Shuguang showed a satisfied smile on his face.
right!
That’s what it feels like.
“Continue to search and move forward.” Ma Yuan waved his right hand, signaling to continue moving forward.
In fact, the direction they were heading in was very close to Masao Watanabe's headquarters, almost only a hundred meters away.
“Captain, look? Is that an antenna?” A sharp-eyed team member pointed at the black antenna of a builder in the distance and asked doubtfully.
“It’s true, the Japanese army’s headquarters must be in front of us. If we speed up, we can catch a big fish.” Ma Yuan said excitedly.
Even He Shuguang couldn’t help but feel excited.
Moving forward much faster.
boom!
The horse walking in the front was knocked down by a shot!
Ma Yuan, who fell to the ground, wailed and felt the pain coming from his shoulder, which made him judge that it should be a penetrating injury.
"Don't panic, it's seven o'clock." Ma Yuan ordered through gritted teeth.
Da da da!
Browning automatic rifle, shooting rapidly in the distance.
At the same time accompanied by bullets from the Thompson submachine gun.
Intensive firepower instantly curbs the opponent's attack.
At this time, a team member stepped forward and prepared to drag Ma Yuan to the rear for treatment.
result!
There was another gunshot on the other side.
boom!
This team member was also knocked down.
"There is an ambush, be careful." At this time, He Shuguang also showed the qualities of a veteran and shouted calmly.
"smoke bomb."
"yes!"
Two smoke bombs were thrown out with a hiss.
White smoke appeared, temporarily blocking the Japanese attack.
Another team member tried to pull the player who had fallen to the ground, but the other team member endured the pain and roared.
“Save the captain first.”
Hearing this, the team member was stunned. Seeing the opponent's eyes widening, he subconsciously wanted to continue dragging him.
“Save the captain first, don’t you understand?”
At this time, the team members had no choice but to give up, turned around, grabbed the captain forward, and dragged him backwards.
The injured team member gritted his teeth and fired a burst at the front.
The Japanese troops on the opposite side obviously reacted and fired back.
boom!
boom!
boom!
The bullet came and hit the team member again, but the opponent still glared ahead, endured the pain, and continued to pull the trigger to cover the team's retreat.
“Old Li.” The team members behind him roared tragically.
“Leave me alone, save the captain first.” The team member known as Lao Li did not look back, but continued to yell to save the captain first.
The horse was dragged far away, and his eyes instantly turned red!
Hate myself secretly for being so careless.
When he got to a safe area, he tore off his clothes and found that it was just a penetrating wound, so he immediately bandaged it with gauze.
And the team member who called out to save the captain first had already been beaten into a sieve, and the ground was soaked red with blood.
“Kill!” Ma Yuan endured his sadness and grief, without saying a word, picked up his submachine gun and fired in the distance.
At the same time, several team members behind him also quickly opened the grenade ring and threw it into the distance.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
As an explosion occurred, the gunfire suddenly stopped.
Da da da!
“Kill!” Ma Yuan still rushed to the front, even if the blood on the gauze kept soaking red, he didn’t care.
He wants revenge!
Lao Li was his comrade in the 200th Division. Now, in order to save him, he fell on the charging road, which made him extremely heartbroken.
He Shuguang behind him also had moist eyes, and he rushed to the front bravely and fearlessly.
Any enemy standing in front of him will be devoured by a long fire dragon.
“Your Excellency, Division Commander, the enemy is right outside our headquarters. Please withdraw.” The major advised him hard.
Unfortunately, Masao Watanabe shook his head and rejected his proposal.
"I can't withdraw, I can't let the 56th Division bear the shame, I am the 56th Division's shame."
“Your Excellency, Division Commander.” What else did the Major want to persuade him to say.
“Get out.” Masao Watanabe glared.
“Hai!” There was no other way. The major had no choice but to go out and lead the remaining ten men to continue resisting the enemy’s attack.
The gunshots outside were getting closer and closer. Masao Watanabe looked at the map again. He didn't understand why he lost so completely.
But in order not to become a prisoner, he picked up the Southern Type 14 pistol that he had never used.
Checked it specially, and then shouted loudly.
“The Emperor is onboard!”
boom!
Then he drank all the bullets.
At this time, He Shuguang also rushed in. Hearing the gunshot, he subconsciously pulled the trigger.
A fire dragon rushed out of the barrel of the gun again and swept through the entire Japanese command post.
Fortunately, there was insufficient fuel, so the fire dragon could only hold on for a few seconds.
But looking at the devastated headquarters, He Shuguang broke out in cold sweat.
It seems that I have screwed up!
Ma Yuan, who was following closely behind him, turned green instantly when he looked at the burned-out headquarters. He cursed regardless of the fact that the other party was Master Yu.
“You **** thing don’t know how to take a look? This is the headquarters of the Japanese army? You’ve burned it to the ground, and you’ve lost all valuable information.”
He Shuguang did not dare to say anything when he was scolded.
I slept until four o'clock and couldn't fall asleep, so I just got up and coded to update!
