Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The radio operator from the Second Brigade was of course very strange and surprised. He had been with the newly appointed acting brigade commander for only eight or nine hours, but the second lieutenant, who was only in his twenties, felt that he had never experienced anything in his life.  Having seen and experienced such cruel but wonderful small-scale battles, he never understood how the acting brigade commander could accurately identify the Japanese militants hiding among the similar buildings and houses in Seoul.  Where is the location?

    The second lieutenant radio operator was secretly glad that he had followed a legendary brigade commander, which opened his eyes and gained a lot of knowledge. But in the blink of an eye, he heard a message that he wanted to resign. How could he not be surprised?  I even suspected that I heard it wrong!

    When Chu Tian asked this question, the second lieutenant radio operator felt embarrassed and hurriedly lowered his head to report. Chu Tian smiled and turned his gaze to the military jeep speeding in the distance. As expected, it turned out to be Colonel Huang Xiaosheng, the chief of staff of the Second Brigade, and the special commander.  Qi Hanzhi, chief of staff of the war detachment, and others.

    However, several jeeps still opened a distance. The first one was two or three kilometers ahead of the ones behind it. Chu Tian shook his head. It must be Qi Hanzhi. The others were not crazy about driving. Before the jeep stopped, Chutian shook his head.  Steady, Qi Hanzhi flew out of the car, ran neatly to Chu Tian, ??raised his hands and saluted, "Report to the detachment leader, Qi Hanzhi successfully completed the task of occupying all important targets in downtown Seoul, Qinghai detachment leader instructed!"

    Chu Tian smiled and punched Qi Hanzhi, "You Qi Hanzhi, you are quite good at making lies. The Seoul Military Control Commission and the Seoul Security Command are in your mouth. They were established all at once. If you hide behind  The Japanese at home know that the entire urban area of ??Seoul is controlled by less than 2,000 troops, and they are so angry that they are so angry! Tell me how they captured the radio station?

    Qi Hanzhi said concisely and concisely: "I don't know what the little devils were thinking. When they retreated, nothing was damaged. Seoul was intact! The same is true for the radio station, detachment leader. We didn't do similar work.  Ah, what¡¯s there to say?¡±

    Chu Tian interjected: "Do you think the little Japs are so kind? They planned to recapture Seoul soon. If they ruined it, the Japs feel bad!"

    Qi Hanzhi was happy and continued: "After we arrived at the radio station, except for a few concierges who opened the door, all the people at the radio station ran home. It was very simple, just sneak them back one by one, and then, I and I  Chief of Staff Huang jointly drafted a notice and broadcast it repeatedly in Japanese and Korean. I really didn¡¯t realize that Chief of Staff Huang¡¯s writing style was so good that it was his idea to issue the notice in the name of the Military Control Commission.  !¡±

    ????????????????????? Huang Xiaosheng's jeep also arrived, just in time.  After hearing the next few words of Qi Hanzhi, he did not dare to steal the credit, and hurriedly stepped forward and saluted Chu Tian, ??"Hello, brigade commander, Chief of Staff Huang Xiaosheng has completed the task assigned by the brigade commander and returns to you! Chief of Staff Qi, let's start the method  The two of them came up with it together!" He respected and admired Chu Tian, ??and he recognized the acting brigade commander from the bottom of his heart, so he directly removed the word "agent" when addressing him.

    Chu Tian returned the salute solemnly and said: "Thank you for your hard work, Chief of Staff Huang. I have ordered the troops to start entering the city. In addition, I also received a report from the peripheral troops. I heard that you gave them a special order. This is good. They are trying to escape."  All the Japanese militants were blocked back! The Second Brigade is a very good force!¡±

    "But don't call me brigade commander anymore. I have just submitted my resignation request to the Corps Headquarters, Theater Command, and Division Commander. I estimate that there will be a reply soon! You also know that I only  It¡¯s just a temporary role!¡±

    "What?" Huang Xiaosheng was as surprised as the second lieutenant radio operator, "Brigadier Commander! How can this be possible? The troops have not completed the task of fully occupying Seoul, and they still need your command. What's more, your command ability,  It has been recognized by the officers and soldiers of the Second Brigade! No, I want to state my opinion to the Corps Headquarters and insist on the brigade commander staying! "

    Chu Tian waved his hand and said: "Chief of Staff Huang, please spare me. I am not suitable for the position of brigade commander of the field force. I am aware of this. The troops are entering the city one after another. Let's go and command separately!"

    Huang Xiaosheng reluctantly said goodbye to Chutian and drove away. Qi Hanzhi said with a smile: "Is this right? Why do you want to be a brigade commander? You are more comfortable in our special operations detachment, don't you think so, detachment captain?"

    The main force of the Second Brigade, more than 16,000 people, was divided into more than a dozen groups. With neat military appearance and mighty military power, they drove into the urban area of ??Seoul. The rumbling engines of their respective vehicles and the neat footsteps of the soldiers echoed throughout Seoul.  On the main streets, it was announced that Seoul had changed hands. After a whole night of clearing, no Japanese militants who attempted to launch an attack showed up!

    The clearing up of Japanese militants in Seoul City?The morning had just ended, and the smell of gunpowder smoke and blood over the city had not yet dissipated. At the Mokpo battlefield at the southernmost tip of the Korean Peninsula, the sound of gunfire began to roar again.

    According to the original plan, the main force of the Southeast Mobile Corps on the Mokpo battlefield began to launch a full-scale attack on the second line of defense of the Japanese and Korean garrison in Mokpo. The intensity of the attack was greater than before. The Japanese commander on the position, the third  Lieutenant General Kaga, the commander of the 17th Division, also felt this. Just last night, reinforcements arrived one after another, which gave Lieutenant General Kaga a lot of confidence.

    Lieutenant General Kaga was determined to inflict heavy losses on the independent division troops on the second line of defense in Mokpo with his abundant troops. However, as soon as the battle began, Lieutenant General Kaga felt the pain. Today, the independent division troops launched an attack.  The scale seems to be larger, the offensive is more fierce, and the tactics that can be adopted are exactly the same as yesterday. It looks like the entire front is filled with tanks and infantry attacking by independent divisions.

    However, upon closer inspection, they are so dispersed that it makes one¡¯s teeth itch. The most effective weapon to deal with tanks covering the infantry attack is the concentrated bombardment of the artillery group. Of course, it would be even more ideal if you have control of the air. Bombers  Dropping a bomb and keeping the tanks of the Independent Division turned into piles of iron lumps, Lieutenant General Kaga knew that he was just thinking about it. There was not a single aircraft of the Empire of Japan among the tanks on the Korean Peninsula!

    Even using artillery, Lieutenant General Kaga was still hesitant. He had tasted the power of the independent division's ground artillery fire and sea naval gunfire yesterday. The two heavy artillery regiments were wiped out in less than forty minutes. Lieutenant General Kaga  He did not dare to risk the several artillery brigades that had been reinforced last night. Therefore, he could only order the infantry to enter the ground position and counterattack the attack of the independent division.

    As a result, yesterday's scene was repeated again. The attacking tanks and infantry of the independent division suddenly turned around and retreated when they were about to be within the fire range of the defenders. Lieutenant General Kaga's scalp tightened. He knew that what would follow  , it must have been artillery fire as ferocious as a volcanic eruption. The order to move to underground fortifications had just been issued. The artillery group of the Independent Division fired artillery shells like hail, covering the entire position.

    After more than forty minutes, the shelling stopped and the smoke dissipated. Lieutenant General Kaga's face was ashen. In just forty minutes of shelling, more than half of the troops deployed by each division on the ground were killed by the independent division's artillery fire.  , the casualties exceeded more than 7,000 people, and who knows the result of his battle?

    Lieutenant General Kaga was so angry that he was gnashing his teeth as he played the Independent Division troops almost roguely, but he was helpless. The best way to avoid being attacked by the enemy's superior artillery fire was to hide in underground fortifications. However, Lieutenant General Kaga did not  Dare to withdraw all the troops on the ground into underground fortifications, leaving no one behind on the ground!

    Lieutenant General Kaga was worried that once the cunning commander of the independent division changed this attack method into a direct breakthrough, the troops in the underground fortifications would not be able to fall out in time, and the Mokpo defense line would be lost, and then the independent division would  The main force of the division swarmed forward and blocked all ground exits. Hundreds of thousands of imperial soldiers would be like rats, trapped in underground fortifications. The results would be disastrous!

    Even though he knew that retaining troops on the ground positions would inevitably result in artillery fire from independent divisions, Lieutenant General Kaga decided that each division should retain at least two brigades of troops on the ground positions. This was what he could do.  Best tactics to reduce losses.

    Mokpo, at the Korean Peninsula Theater Temporary Headquarters, Ma Chaoyang laughed loudly, "Commander Tang, the little devil commander opposite, how worried are you now? The shell we just fired killed the little devil.  , If the fight continues like this, if the little devil commander does not leave any troops on the ground, we will turn the feint attack into an actual attack and block all the little devils on the second line of defense in Mokpo underground! "

    "Commander of the little devils, if you leave troops on the ground, no matter how many, we will greet you with artillery fire. No matter how little is too little, one or two thousand will do, tens of thousands is better, we will eat as many as we have!"

    Tang Qiuquan was also very happy and said: "The Japanese commander cannot crack the fixed tactics and fighting methods. To launch a counterattack, he does not have such a big capital. If he sticks to the defense line, he has to fight according to our rhythm. Even if Tanaka Shinichi knows, we  If you want to consume his troops, you have to fight hard at Mokpo. But Chaoyang, the amount of shells consumed by this kind of attack will be staggering. You urge the logistics department to ensure the supply of shells for the artillery! "

    Ma Chaoyang said confidently: "Commander Tang, don't worry. The Division Logistics Department has already considered it and specially arranged two fleets to travel between Shandong and Mokpo to be responsible for supplying Mokpo battlefield ammunition and military supplies!"

    Tang Qiuquan was relieved and saw Major General Xin Xiguo, Chief of Staff of the Fleet, and Colonel Xu Guangqi, Chief of Staff of the Southeast Mobile Corps, coming hand in hand.
