    "Huh?" After hearing what Chief of Staff Xin Xiguo said, Tang Qiuquan's eyes sharpened. "Be more careful?" he said.

    Xin Xiguo said: "According to reports from fighter pilots, after the bombing, they found many Japanese military communications troops repairing telephone lines leading to various Japanese military positions. At first, the pilots were angry because they thought it was Japanese military medical personnel rescuing the wounded.  Soldiers, but after closer inspection, we found that it was not the case, because those Japanese soldiers carried large rolls of telephone wires, and the movements of the Japanese communication soldiers started from one point and spread to all directions! "

    Tang Qiuquan¡¯s eyes flashed and he asked: ¡°Are you sure that the people operating on the Japanese army¡¯s positions are communication troops and not others?¡±

    Xin Xiguo replied very definitely: "It is certain that the fighter pilots risked being hit by Japanese ground anti-aircraft fire and conducted close-in reconnaissance at ultra-low altitude. They confirmed the situation. It was from this location that the Japanese communications troops began to check the line.  "Yes!" Xin Xiguo pointed out a location on the map.

    "Bang bang bang!" Tang Qiuquan's finger pointed hard at this position, "This illustrates a very real problem. First, this position must be where the Japanese Army's highest headquarters in Lushunkou is located, the Japanese army's command center.  Right here, secondly, the Japanese communications troops are eager to repair the phone lines, which means that the command system of the Japanese defense system has not been completely destroyed. In other words, our first round of bombing did not cause much damage to the Japanese army!  "

    "If the Japanese troops on the position are almost dead, there is no need to repair the phone lines. Combined with the intelligence from the Intelligence Department, it is certain that a large number of Japanese troops have escaped our bombing because they are hidden in underground fortifications.  ! ¡ª¡ªThe first round of bombing only scratched the surface of the Japanese army!¡±

    Xin Xiguo felt ashamed at the commander's last words.  It was a criticism of his optimistic assessment of the bombing effect just now, "Commander, I!" He didn't know what to say?

    Tang Qiuquan waved his hand, "Don't worry, it's not time to review the mistakes. Now, the second round of bombing must be carried out. Combined with naval guns to destroy the Japanese coastal defense guns, do it at the same time! Order the aviation bomber group to carry out the second bombing! Especially!  The fighter pilot provided the coordinates as a key bombing area, especially the area where the Japanese command center is located," he said decisively.

    Xin Xiguo reminded: "Commander, as we currently have complete control of the air, it is not a problem to carry out several rounds of bombing, but the key question is, will the bombing have a greater effect? ??What effect will aerial bombs have on the Japanese troops hiding underground?  There is nothing we can do about the fortifications!¡±

    Tang Qiuquan smiled.  He smiled very cruelly, "Xi Guo, you are confused. Have you forgotten that the land-based aviation force has a big killer, the 'Buddha's Light' napalm bomb! Our carrier-based bombers should also be equipped with some of them, since they are ordinary bombs. But what?  If you can¡¯t defeat the Japanese underground fortifications, then use napalm bombs!¡±

    Xin Xiguo's eyes lit up, "Yes, Commander, why did I forget that big killer weapon? After the napalm bomb explodes, the burning gasoline penetrates everywhere, even if the little devil is hiding underground, there will be no escape.  ! Okay, I'll give your order to the second echelon of the aviation bomber group, the carrier-based fighter group!"

    Colonel Kiyosaki¡¯s thoughtful words.  It still played a big role. Soon, the phone contact between the shore artillery wing and the army headquarters was finally restored. After receiving the report, Colonel Kiyosaki immediately called the commander of the Seventh Army, Yokoyama Chu.  General, he pretended to be deaf before and hung up the call of the Commander. Now that the bombing is over, he has not called again to report the casualties and losses to the military headquarters. If Lieutenant General Hengshan is blamed, then it will be  No joke!

    "Your Excellency, Commander, I am Captain Kiyosaki of the Shore Artillery Regiment!" Colonel Kiyosaki said respectfully on the phone. Although the other party was just a communications soldier from the military headquarters, Colonel Kiyosaki did not dare to neglect.

    Hearing the staff officer say that Colonel Kiyosaki, commander of the Coast Artillery Regiment, had called, Lieutenant General Yokoyama's eyebrows jumped, but he did not show any dissatisfaction. He picked up the phone and said, "Kyosaki-kun, you guys  What are the losses of the Coast Artillery Regiment? All units on the forward positions have reported their casualties, but there is no news about your Coast Artillery Regiment! "Is it inconvenient for you, Kiyosaki-kun?"  No anger.

    But in the ears of Colonel Kiyosaki, it was even more uncomfortable and uneasy than scolding him. He knew the temper of Commander Yokoyama very well. He was a person with a bad temper and would curse at every disagreement.  A rude person who is used to being direct and direct, but now he talks to me in such a sinister tone. How can he not make his hair stand on end and be terrified?

    Colonel Kiyosaki had a cold sweat on his forehead.? He said more and more respectfully: "Your Excellency, Commander, the Coast Artillery Wing suffered minor losses during the independent division bombing. Three coast defense guns were destroyed, and two other coast defense guns were slightly damaged.  It has been repaired and can be put into battle. The Coast Artillery Regiment is waiting for the commander's instructions to ensure that the invading Chinese troops will be buried on the beach of Lushunkou!"

    Colonel Kiyosaki was very smart. He knew that no matter how he explained his previous pretending to be deaf or his subsequent long-term loss of contact, Commander Yokoyama would not be satisfied or believe him, so he simply reported it directly.  Regarding the battle damage, maybe after hearing this, Your Excellency the Commander will feel happy and forget about it?

    Sure enough, Colonel Kiyosaki's bet was right. When Lieutenant General Yokoyama heard this, he was so happy that he shouted "Yo Xi! Yo Xi!" The shore artillery regiment suffered such losses under such intensive bombing by the Independent Division bombers.  The slightness was far beyond expectation.

    Lieutenant General Yokoyama knew very well that the first exposed position of the shore artillery was equivalent to putting himself under the nose of the independent division bombers. It must be a key bombing target. If someone is bombed, he will be turned upside down. That is lucky. Although there are strong hidden artillery  hole, but the loss will definitely not be small. Now, the loss is so slight, which naturally makes Lieutenant General Hengshan forget his previous unhappiness, "Kyosaki-kun, your shore artillery regiment is the backbone of the firepower of the entire Lushunkou defense line. Now, independent  The landing troops of the division are always lingering in the outer sea, with unknown intentions, but you must be prepared for bombardment at any time! These damn Chinese are so cunning!" he said fiercely.

    After hearing this, Colonel Kiyosaki breathed a long sigh of relief. General Yokota returned to his original temper, which meant that he no longer blamed himself. This was the real commander. Those strange words he just said made his whole body feel  Chilling, "Please don't worry, Commander! Since the Chinese bombers can't attack my shore artillery position, then Lushunkou is a place where Chinese soldiers are bloody and bloody!"

    Putting down the phone, Lieutenant General Yokoyama raised his telescope and observed the movements of the Independent Division's troop transport fleet on the sea. In the distance, hundreds of ships and warships were arranged regularly, moored motionlessly like silent rocks.  On the sea and in the sky, dozens of Independent Division fighter jets were circling boringly, while the huge landing force of the Independent Division was silent as they entered!

    Putting down his telescope, Lieutenant General Hengshan blinked his bull's-eyes and was puzzled. According to the rules of the cross-sea landing battle, he attacked one side and used powerful sea and air firepower to suppress the firepower of the defenders. After that, the landing ships and landing craft, as well as various  A kind of light landing ship will transport infantry and start to land on the beach. The most intense battles will occur during the beach grabbing period. Your own defense deployment is precisely designed for this situation.

    As for the landing force of the Independent Division, after dispatching bombers and indiscriminate bombardment, the infantry that needed to land the most did not move at all. This was not in line with the norm. "Cunning Chinese people, I don't know what they are fighting for."  An idea? Are you planning a larger bombing? But how effective will it be?" Lieutenant General Hengshan suddenly thought of this, and the battlefield was so calm that it was worrying!

    Although he thought so, Lieutenant General Hengshan did not issue any orders. Anyway, Lieutenant General, you have made up your mind that the imperial army will not open fire until the infantry of the independent division lands. This is what the Chinese people often say, "React without changing."  Ten thousand changes! "I, Hengshan, am not that stupid if I want to lure my soldiers and expose them to the enemy's superior air firepower!"

    More than half an hour has passed. The smoke from the Japanese position that was bombed just now has cleared, but not a single Japanese soldier is moving on the position. Looking from the sea, the Japanese position in Lushunkou is covered with smoke.  It was desolate, but beneath the desolation, tens of thousands of Japanese soldiers, holding weapons tightly in their hands, lurked in underground fortifications and stood ready. They were nervous, staring at the sea level in the distance with fierce eyes.

    After the horrific air raid just now, although the Japanese soldiers were still frightened and shocked by the unprecedented bombing intensity, their confidence in the fortifications was greatly increased. Under such a ferocious bombing by the independent division bombers, they themselves were unscathed. It seems that as long as  Relying on solid reinforced concrete fortifications, the soldiers of the independent division can't help themselves!

    In the distant sky, the roar of aircraft engines came again, but in the ears of the Japanese soldiers, there was no fear as before. Some junior Japanese officers even joked with each other easily, "Nakamura-kun,  Are you saying that the Chinese people's bombing was in vain? I guess the commander of the Chinese troops is also crazy, right?"

    "Takahashi-kun, this is a trick played by the commander of the Chinese troops. These stupid Chinese people want to use air superiority to shake the confidence of the imperial soldiers, but the Chinese people will know that we are hidden in solid underground fortifications.  Very good, just waiting to use the gun in his hand to beat the Chinese soldiers with corpses everywhere! ?Mr. Villager, after a fight breaks out, our two teams will compete to see which team can kill more Chinese soldiers!  "This Mr. Takahashi is quite confident.
