The sound of guns and guns resounded under the green hills. Before the Japanese army had time to adjust and shoot at Zhuyuan, the shells smashed down. The scene-looking up, the black and heavy shells made the Japanese army who was launching the attack couldn't help but look pale. Everything has changed, I didn't expect the enemy's firepower to be so strong.
Eighty mortars, plus one hundred and twenty grenadiers, plus sixty light and heavy machine guns, what kind of concept is this? It is stronger than the firepower of many divisions of the National Army. If all members of the 13th Brigade are launched , there can still be forty cannons, thirty tanks, twenty armored vehicles, and countless ammunition. Even if it is compared with the Japanese army, it will not be weaker than the troops of the Type A division.
? Projecting from a high altitude is much farther than hitting upwards, and it has more advantages. Kato originally wanted to bully Chinese soldiers who often do not have heavy firepower, but this time he encountered a hard stubble.
Without time to think too much, the many artillery shells exploded in the Japanese army group. The rumbling sound of the artillery enveloped the Japanese army positions in gunpowder smoke, and four or five hundred Japanese troops were blown away by a burst of artillery shells.
Kato's face changed drastically. He thought it was a great achievement, but he didn't want to bite on the bone and gritted his teeth.
"Withdraw back¡ª" Disregarding any credit, Kato yelled, and called back all the Japanese troops who were still desperately attacking. The enemy's firepower was too strong, and such a strong attack would only cause trouble for himself.
The Japanese army also breathed a sigh of relief. Just as they rushed to the foot of the mountain, they suddenly withdrew back. They did not give Xiucai a second round of bombardment, thanks to Kato's quick response.
Let's talk about the 105th Division, biting the Japanese soldiers and chasing after them, but it was very difficult to catch up with them. They ran faster than rabbits, and they were going farther and farther south.
It is said that the rabbit that has been chased so fast runs so fast, it is not easy for him to catch up, and the brothers are all tired, if they continue to chase like this, they can only be exhausted, but so far, the Japanese army has Hundreds of corpses were left behind. Counting nearly 5,000 people from the two regiments of the Japanese army, only 2,000 people actually escaped here.
The loss was heavy, but Master Wang was still dissatisfied, but he didn't know when he would be able to wipe it out if he kept chasing like this. It would be better to go back and surround the Kato United Team with the 13th Brigade, and the same is true for destroying the Kato United Team.
"Prepare to retreat¡ª" commanding the troops to slow down a bit, and slowly distanced themselves from the Japanese army. Master Wang thought about it, but left a battalion to continue chasing, and let that battalion continue to send out scouts , if you're lucky, the little devil won't be able to find out, I'm afraid he won't know where he's going to be kicked out.
Following the disappearance of the little devil, the 105th Division transferred its team and killed it from Xinchao Qingshan, leaving a battalion with the Japanese army hanging behind it.
Master Wang didn't know that it was this division that chased the Japanese army all the way to the border of Lishui, killing hundreds of people along the way, but less than 200 of them were killed or injured.
Kato was hesitating. He didn't expect the enemy's firepower to be so strong, and a strong attack was not an option. Did he have any other ideas for a while, which delayed him instead.
Master Wang knew that the 13th Brigade had encountered the Japanese army and was suppressed at the foot of the green hill. It was not meaningful to go to the green hill by himself.
There are two flowers, one for each. As early as when Inaba Shiro attacked Zhenjiang City, the 41st Division also rushed to Suzhou, but since entering Weitang Town, they have been discovered by the security forces' spies.
Kou Huairen got the news from the start of the 41st Division, and naturally told Yan Biao, Yan Biao began to prepare, calculated the 41st Division's only way, and began to lay an ambush on the only way, such as It is said to plant landmines on the main road, adopt a detonation method, and then send a small group of troops to ambush.
Along the way, Yan Biao didn't know exactly how many landmines he had laid. In short, the little devil had laid a lot of landmines on the way, just waiting for the arrival of the 41st Division.
Since entering Weitang Town, the 41st Division has tasted the landmines of the Security Army. Originally, Mori Tanabe's soldiers were divided into three groups, but unexpectedly, all three groups were plotted against by the Security Army. Although not many died, they were injured. There were six or seven hundred of them, and they had to divide their troops to take care of the wounded.
Yan Biao also mobilized the guerrillas and militias in the Suzhou area. Instead of fighting the Japanese army head-on, he just drew cold guns from behind or from the flanks, and ran away after two shots.
And Yan Biao also made preparations in Suzhou City. According to his own ideas, Yan Biao planted landmines in places where the Japanese army might camp. He didn't expect to kill many Japanese soldiers.
Anyone who is attacked along the way, but still can't catch the enemy, will hold his breath, and Moritake Tanabe is no exception, and such constant tossing, the Japanese army will inevitably be very tired, unable to rest at night, When they arrived in Suzhou, the Japanese army was exhausted.
In addition, Yan Biao built a large number of dark forts in the city. The 41st Division dragged here.
The Japanese army is very elite, but once it enters street fighting, especially in the whole city, Yan Biao only needs a few people to hold back a squadron of Japanese troops. After all, the security forces are too familiar with the terrain, and tunnels are the fundamental guarantee for them to disappear .
Although not many soldiers were killed along the way, more than a thousand people were injured. The Japanese army was exhausted, so when they rushed to Suzhou, they chose to camp ten miles away, which was beyond Yan Biao's expectations.
However, upon receiving the news that the 41st Division had arrived, Yan Biao just sneered for a while, and then gave an order: "Open all the city gates, and everyone will go down the tunnels to deal with the Japanese army."
To talk about this tunnel, Yan Biao really worked hard. During this period of time, the people in Suzhou were mobilized to dig tunnels, and every household was required to dig and connect with each other. A large amount of drinking water and food were stored in the tunnels. Made a lot of organ traps.
The construction of these tunnels also benefited from the Civil Engineering Bureau of Xishan Island, which mobilized more than 20 professionals who knew about tunnel excavation in Suzhou. In addition to studying tunnel excavation, these professionals also studied how to set up traps and did a lot of work. Work.
It is precisely because of this that the tunnels in Suzhou are not inferior to those in Huzhou and Yixing. More than 200,000 people in Suzhou participated in the excavation of the tunnels, which almost completely hollowed out the bottom of Suzhou.
Since Liu Yang became independent, the Secret Service Battalion has been studying tunnel excavation and the layout of agency traps. In the past two years, how much progress has been made is far beyond the guesswork of those who don't know.
The whole tunnel is a labyrinth, with hundreds of movable doors, which can be used to confuse the enemy, often go in, as long as a door is closed, the enemy will turn around in a circle, it is difficult to get out, and sometimes there are two tunnels They are close together, only separated by a wall. Once they enter, the next door will launch wooden spikes, stringing this authentic enemy into candied haws.
It¡¯s not that Yan Biao didn¡¯t dare to fight tough battles with the Japanese army, but the difference in military strength was too great. Even if all the militias were mobilized and many young men in Suzhou were mobilized, there were only more than 10,000 people. Only the elite who had actually fought in the war were only the security guards. The two brigades of the army have no more than 2,000 people.
The rest of the people have only received training for a short time, they can only do auxiliary things, it is better to say that the engine is turned off, the entrance and exit of the tunnel are changed, and the entire tunnel network is activated.
But this is enough, following Yan Biao's order, the noisy city of Suzhou suddenly no longer sees people, it becomes like a dead city, but the four doors are wide open, quite a bit like inviting you into the urn.
Besides, while the 41st Division set up camp, they sent sharp soldiers to investigate. When the sharp soldiers touched the outside of Suzhou City, they saw that the gate was open, and the city was quiet. There were no enemies on the city walls, and no light in the whole city. .
The vanguard turned around for a while, but found nothing at all. After a final discussion, they sent a small team of vanguards and cautiously entered the city.
After turning around for more than an hour, it turned to nightfall, not only searched the street, but also searched some houses, but what surprised the soldiers was that there was really no one in Suzhou, as if dead, without a trace of life, everyone are gone.
Walking on such a street, the vanguard felt panicked and could hear their own footsteps. What was even more frightening was that there would be a few night owl calls from time to time, which made people feel panicked.
After checking about it, the vanguard retreated. Although no one was seen, the vanguard was sure that there must be enemies in the city, but they didn't know where they were hiding.
Soon the vanguard rushed back and reported the situation to Tanabe Shengwu, but the Suzhou people disappeared.
"Nani?" Moritake Tanabe was also stunned. Suzhou is a big city with hundreds of thousands of people. Where did you go?
Also, the enemy opened the city gate, but there is no one in the city. Could it be an empty city plan?
Moritake Tanabe, who originally wanted to carry out a night attack, decided to wait until dawn tomorrow before launching an attack on Suzhou after receiving the news. At that time, no matter what schemes the enemy had, Moritake Tanabe would rely on more than 30,000 people. Soldiers, turn Suzhou upside down.
It's just that you didn't stop this night. The guerrillas kept sneaking and fleeing at night, and they launched sneak attacks from all directions from time to time. They didn't ask how many people were killed, but only wanted to exhaust the Japanese army and prepare for the next battle.
Throughout the night, the guerrillas and militiamen never ceased to attack the camp from time to time, even when encountering vanguard troops, the Japanese soldiers would wake up every time. Don¡¯t even think about getting a solid sleep that night. After driving such a long distance, Another night of tossing and tossing the Japanese army will inevitably be very exhausted and powerless, so tomorrow's battle - (remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com)?? I stopped, and I sneaked up on the camp from time to time, just encountering the leading soldiers, and every time I woke up the Japanese army, I don¡¯t want to sleep soundly this night. After driving such a long way, and tossing the Japanese army for another night, it will definitely be very difficult Tired and weak, then tomorrow's battle¡ª(Remember this site URL: www.hlnovel.com
