Seeing a group of East Resistance soldiers in gray military uniforms rushing towards the gap in the city wall like a tide, Miyamoto, who had not yet stood still, screamed in horror!
The Japanese army responded quickly enough, but at this moment, the third regiment of the 106th Brigade also launched a frontal attack to suppress the Japanese firepower on the city.
Suddenly the sound of gunfire suddenly became fierce!
Except for the North City direction, the First and Second Regiments from West City and East City, plus the artillery company, reconnaissance company, engineer company and other combat units directly under the brigade headquarters all pressed forward!
"Sir, the Chinese have launched a general offensive"
"Baga, hurry up, block the gap, hurry up, fire" Miyamoto shouted at the top of his lungs with red eyes.
"Commander Lin, we succeeded!" Squad leader Hu, who was helping Lin Fang to fire the cannon, said excitedly to Lin Fang.
"Yes, we succeeded!" Lin Fang was also a little excited. He did it. He destroyed the city wall with only two cannons and successfully opened a gap, giving the attacking troops a chance to break into the city!
"Squad Leader Hu, how many shells do we have?"
"There are seven more, right?" Squad Leader Hu said, "We have a total of ten shells, three of them have been used, and there are still seven left!"
"Come and do me a favor, let's aim the muzzle in that direction!" Lin Fang saw a lot of Japs on the city gate tower, including some with samurai swords. He thought to himself, this should be a Japs officer, and said The headquarters may be located there!
"Commander Lin, this is at least three kilometers away. Can our artillery hit it?" Squad leader Hu asked suspiciously.
"Let's try it. Didn't we reach the limit just now? This time we put more gunpowder so that we can shoot farther. If we can kill the enemy's headquarters or commander with one shot, then we will have the credit. Let's go!" Lin Fang also longed for military exploits in his heart. Having military exploits meant that he could be promoted and lead troops independently. He was not willing to be an artillery staff officer all his life. He wanted a higher position and a bigger stage!
"How about we move the cannon forward and lift it up?" Squad Leader Hu suggested.
"That's fine. This way I'm more confident!"
"Brothers, help Staff Lin!" Squad leader Hu shouted, and five or six soldiers came over quickly. They quickly tied up the cannon weighing a thousand kilograms with ropes, then lifted it up and headed forward despite the hail of bullets. Speed ??away.
"That's enough, it's right here. There is a bomb crater here, let's shoot the little devil here!" Lin Fang walked while looking for a location to set up the gun. A crater with a diameter of five or six meters appeared in front of his eyes. He was overjoyed. , hurriedly asked Squad Leader Hu and others to carry the artillery over.
Everyone scrambled to fix the gun position. After Lin Fang's measurement and adjustment, he finally found an optimal elevation angle.
Having cooperated several times, Squad Leader Hu and Lin Fang have quite a tacit understanding.
"Squad Leader Hu, prepare to reload!" Lin Fang entered the command state with a sense of majesty, and Squad Leader Hu also knew that the stakes were high. Accept his command gladly.
"Squad Leader Hu, this time you light the fuse!"
"I. Staff Lin, is it true?" Squad Leader Hu was excited.
"It's you, it's you, don't you want to give the little devil a shot?" Lin Fang encouraged.
"Yes, give the little devil a shot!" Squad Leader Hu said excitedly as he took the torch from Lin Fang's hand.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
The strong air wave lifted Squad Leader Hu, Lin Fang and others away. The amount of gunpowder loaded this time was one and a half times that of before. The propulsion generated can be imagined.
"Sir, what is that" The orderly standing next to Miyamoto Tokuichi pointed to a small black spot on the horizon!
Miyamoto took a look out of the corner of his eye, and the experienced man was immediately frightened out of his wits: "Quick, get down quickly"
How fast cannonballs go, at least two human legs cannot compare, so running is the stupidest thing to do, and the only reaction is to lie down!
Boom!
There was a loud noise, and Miyamoto felt that his body was thrown up by a strong force, and then fell hard. Then his vision went dark, and he lost consciousness!
"Haha, Staff Lin, I hit, hit" Squad leader Hu was ecstatic, and the first shot hit the city gate tower. This was a big hit.
???????????????????????????????????
"Squad Leader Hu" Lin Fang and other soldiers were shocked and quickly supported the fallen Squad Leader Hu.
"Commander Lin, I hit, hit" Squad leader Hu spat out blood from his mouth, and the smile in the corner of his eyes was still there.But the breath of life is getting weaker and weaker.
"Captain Hu, stop talking, the doctor will be here soon!" Lin Fang stretched out his hand to press the wound that was bleeding out, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't stop the blood from seeping out.
"Squad leader" The surrounding soldiers burst into tears.
"I'm leaving first, brothers, fight the Japanese and avenge me!" Squad leader Hu slowly closed his eyes and passed away.
"You bastard little devils, Deputy Wan, get ready to reload. I must kill these bastards today!" Lin Fang hugged the deceased Squad Leader Hu and roared angrily!
"yes!"
"Avenge the old squad leader"
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
Under Lin Fang's command, all the remaining six shells were fired. Except for one that missed, all five shells landed on the city wall. The Japanese who exploded were like rats and wolves, and they were killed and injured. Favorably coordinated Yao Zishan's camp to break into the city!
This was the first battle after the reorganization of the 36th Division. The whole division was working hard. The 106th Brigade got the task of attacking Longhua, and the 3rd Regiment got the task of main attack. Yao Zishan¡¯s 3rd Battalion was the 3rd Battalion. The elite of the regiment were appointed as the sharp knives to break through the city.
"It's a pity that Lin Fang is a staff officer at the brigade headquarters!" Through the telescope, Zhou Zhendong saw Lin Fang's every move.
"When this battle is over, wouldn't you recommend him to go to a military academy for further studies?" Chief of Staff Wei Dake suggested with a smile.
"That's a very good idea, but he studied artillery. Do we have artillery as a major?"
"Not yet. But I don't think he needs to learn the professional skills of artillery. Commanding is what he needs!" Wei Dake said.
"You are still very smart!"
"Yao Zishan has already broken in. It's not a big problem to capture Longhua City before dark. We can finally explain it to the headquarters!"
"It's still early for the Japanese army to be defeated. We can't be careless and tell the frontline commanders that the first priority after controlling the situation is to clear out the enemies in the city!" Zhou Zhendong gave the order.
"Yes, Commander-in-Chief!"
"Oh. Did Zhou Zhendong and the others break into Longhua City?" Lu Shan was a little surprised when he received Zhang Zhongji's report, but it was also expected.
"Speaking of which, thanks to that eighty-year-old antique, two cannons destroyed the city wall. In addition, they also bombed the Japanese headquarters set up on the north city gate. The Japanese army was leaderless, so they allowed They broke in so fast!" Zhang Zhongji's face was red and he was extremely excited.
"Yes, sometimes old things can be used in new ways. Without such a cannon, we could have taken Longhua City. But the sacrifice would be hard to say!" Lu Shan nodded.
"Yes, this cannon is our cannon. I just don't know who left it. We should thank him very much!" Qin Shiyu said.
"Didn't you say that it was enshrined in Xiaotanggou Ancestral Hall? That has something to do with the owner of the ancestral hall. Can't we find out by asking?"
"Right!"
"Notice, we will leave for Longhua early tomorrow morning." Lu Shan told Feng Yundao.
"Tomorrow morning. Should we wait a little longer until the enemies in the city are cleared?" Qin Shiyu hesitated.
"There's no need. We've been here in a hail of bullets in the past two years. Are we still afraid of the remnants of the Japanese?" Lu Shan said.
"Okay, what about those foreign representatives?"
¡°Send someone to escort us, and we will go to Duolun early tomorrow morning, from Duolun to Zhangjiakou, and then return to the pass. The rest of it has nothing to do with us!¡±
"Okay, I'll let someone else arrange this!" Qin Shiyu nodded.
"I want to prepare a power-on statement. No one is allowed to interrupt without my order. Do you understand?" Lu Shan returned to his office and ordered Dejue.
"Yes, Mr. Lu!" Dejue asked, "Should I bring you dinner, or should you go and eat it yourself?"
"Send it over and tell Master Guo that two dishes are enough. Make it lighter." Lu Shan ordered.
"General, what should we do now? We are under house arrest. Will the Chinese detain us?"
"They shouldn't do this. If they detain us, everything they have done before will be in vain!"
"The Chinese people already know our plan. I'm worried that if they get the exact evidence, the empire will be passive"
Around Tojo Hideki, Nemoto Hiroshi and others discussed all kinds of things, but Tojo himself remained silent, not knowing what he was thinking in his heart.
"We all underestimated the influence of China's Nanjing side on China's eastern resistance. This is a fatal mistake!" Takekatsu Horita said.
"Horita-kun is a master of China. How do you think the current crisis should be resolved?" Major Nagatsubi asked.
"Now it seems that we can only look at the outcome of this battle. If the Chinese army fails to occupy Jehol, then we can take the initiative at the armistice negotiation table. If the empire loses, then we have to accept reality." Tian Wusheng said.
"If the empire wins, the general will be able to survive the danger. On the contrary, the general may be transferred back to the homeland. Whether it is hiding in the snow or being retired to the reserve force, it is all light!"
Tojo Hideki's eyes twitched. He finally reached the position of major general. How could he be willing to remain silent like this?
"But the reality is too cruel. No matter he wins or loses, he can't get any benefits. Someone has to bear the responsibility. He is too clear about the virtues of the corrupt officials in the base camp.
What he is more worried about is that someone will add insult to injury at this time. The struggle in the army is cruel. He has been on the bench for so many years. How can he not understand what it feels like?
"Mr. Tojo, please pack your personal belongings and complete the departure procedures. There will be a car to take you away tomorrow morning!"
"Send us off?"
"Of course, don't you want to stay and be our prisoners?"
