Take Taobao to fight against Japan

At this time, in several field hospitals on the south bank of the Yellow River, thousands of doctors and nurses had already entered the state of battle, and had already made various preparations, just waiting for the frontline wounded to be sent to the hospital.

"Baga! It's such a pity. If we still have enough troops to launch a strong counterattack at this time, we will definitely achieve unimaginable results."

It was already past four o'clock in the morning, and the sky was getting a little numb. Standing on the top of the city wall, through the binoculars, Maeda Ji could fully see the shadowy figure in the distance illuminated by lights such as fires and flashlights.

Even if he thought about it with his feet, Osamu Maeda knew that this must be the Huben army cleaning up the battlefield and searching for the wounded. It must be extremely busy and chaotic at this time.

Although Maeda Osamu really wanted to "take advantage of the victory" and put all his wealth on it, he still lacked the courage to put all his eggs in one basket due to various reasons.

Nobuo Takaoka also nodded with great regret and said: "Yes, what a pity, the warriors of the Empire have made such great sacrifices and created such a good fighter, but our technical equipment has been completely lost, and there are no more. The ability to continue to attack."

"Baga, the warriors of the empire will not die in vain. It won't be long before General Ishihara will lead the most elite Kwantung Army of the empire to avenge them!"

Maeda Ji withdrew his gaze with infinite resentment, and then continued:

"Mr. Gao Gang, please immediately call all the generals above the head of the Imperial Association Army to come to the headquarters for a meeting. These Chinese troops have enjoyed a peaceful and happy life for too long. Now it is time for them to make due contributions to the Great Japanese Empire. .”

The old devil didn't close his eyes all night, but he was still full of energy at this moment, ready to spin around and prepare for tomorrow's defensive battle.

"Hayi! Raising soldiers for a thousand days and using them for a short time, it's time to let them bleed."

Gao Okano nodded heavily, then turned around and left immediately.

At five o'clock in the morning, the meeting room of the Japanese Army Command in Shanghe County.

After receiving the notification from the Japanese Army Staff Headquarters, the leaders of the puppet army, large and small, rushed to the Japanese Army Headquarters for a meeting as quickly as possible.

When Mei Xin, the brigade commander of the puppet army, walked into the meeting room, there were already a dozen generals of the puppet army sitting in the room, but no Japanese generals were present yet.

But at this moment, more than a dozen people in the room had bitter faces, and the atmosphere was extremely oppressive, filled with a chilling sense of sternness.

Therefore, Mei Xin walked to the meeting table with a smile and sat down, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, handed a cigarette to several people, and asked with a smile: "Commander Qu, you are always well-informed. You have a very good relationship with the Imperial Army, so you know what you are going to do with this emergency meeting today?"

"What?"

With Mei Xin's help, Qu Bao, commander of Shanghe County's city defense, lit a cigarette, took a puff of cigarette, rolled his eyes and said, "You're testing me, are you sure there's nothing wrong with it?"

"Commander Qu, you think highly of me too, how dare I test you!"

Mei Xin quickly apologized and said with a smile: "I really don't know what happened, you know, I've always had no big ambitions, I just want to make my wife and children hot on the bed, so I don't care if the sky falls or the earth cracks outside! "

Before Qu Bao could answer, Yan Zhiguan, the commander of the puppet army, snorted unhappily:

"Brigade Commander Mei, I think you're just pretending to be ignorant. There was such a big commotion yesterday and last night. I don't believe that I slept soundly at night. I don't believe that you don't know what happened!"

Ruan Cheng, another brigade commander of the puppet army, answered with a cold snort: "Needless to say, the Japanese can't stop the Huben army from attacking. They must push us to the front line as cannon fodder!"

"Ah? You want us to fight the Huben army? Are you kidding me? Even the imperial army can't beat them. Let us go up, so we can't even find the scum?"

Mei Xin immediately showed a frightened look, his body trembled and the burning cigarette in his hand fell to the ground.

Although it is said that thunder is deaf, how can Mei Xin not know about the fierce battle on the bank of the Yellow River that lasted for a day and a night, but he is not willing to face the reality, to be the cannon fodder of the Japanese, let alone to fight desperately with the Huben army .

"Yes! Who said otherwise? We were forced to seek refuge with the Japanese not because we wanted to survive, but the Japanese didn't treat us as human beings at all!"

Ruan Cheng sighed, and said with a fierce look on his face: "Now we are going to die, why not go with them..."

Chapter 1239

"Shut up, don't you know what it means to have misfortune come from your mouth, don't you know what it means to have ears on the wall?"

Qu Bao glared at Ruan Cheng, and said in a low voice, "Do you think that today's meeting is here to ask for our opinions? Do we have a choice? If you don't want to die right away, just keep your mouth shut!"

"Cough, cough, cough!"

"this,……"

After these words, Ruan Cheng and others immediately became silent, and looked around nervously.

Although they couldn't find any clues of being monitored and monitored, Qu Bao's words just now made everyone wake up suddenly. They only dared to smoke heavily and dared not talk about these "sensitive topics" anymore.

Don't look at the devils who usually put on a friendly attitude between China and Japan, and talk with a smile, but they are not three-year-old children, who don't know the ferocious nature of the Japanese, who don't know that in the eyes of the devils, they are simply a group of pigs and dogs. s things.

Especially some time ago, the Huben army on the other side of the river made great publicity to expose the true face of Unit 731. They all saw the heinous pictures and materials very clearly, and they knew the cause and effect of the whole incident clearly.

Therefore, except for a few loyalists, most of these puppet generals had different thoughts, and all their only illusions about the Japanese disappeared.

Especially when the intelligence personnel sent by the Huben Army secretly contacted them, their minds became more active, and they were already in Cao Ying and their hearts were in Han.

Of course, they were originally a group of people who were greedy for life and afraid of death. It was definitely not an easy task for them to risk their lives and turn their backs on the dark under the eyes of the devils.

Because not only their lives are in the hands of the Japanese, but many of their families are also in the hands of the Japanese. It is impossible for them to put aside all their scruples before reaching the last moment.

But at the same time, no matter what means the devils use, they really think too much if they want these puppet troops to become cannon fodder to fight the Huben army.

These puppet troops can bully ordinary people, and they can make do with the guerrillas with simple weapons and equipment, but they are going to fight the famous Huben army, even they can't believe it.

Ding ding dong dong, not long after, there was a burst of crisp footsteps in the corridor outside the house.

Without making these puppet generals wait too long, Maeda Osamu led a few devil officers into the conference room.

"In the past day and night, the warriors of the Great Japanese Empire have inflicted unbearable heavy losses on the Chinese Huben Army. They are already at the end of their strength.

Moreover, the most elite Kwantung Army of the Empire is already on the way, and within three days of hard work, the Imperial Kwantung Army will be able to rush to the territory of Shandong.

These arrogant and ignorant tiger army, they are doomed to end in disastrous defeat from the very beginning, they will only be wiped out in front of the imperial chariot! "

Without too many opening remarks and deceptive words, Maeda Ji said straight to the point: "It's just that the injured beast will always struggle before dying, and we need to fight side by side in the next battle!

The so-called raising soldiers for a thousand days and using them for a while, you are all true friends of the Great Japanese Empire, presumably you will all help out at a critical moment, right? "

Speaking of this, Maeda Zhi paused deliberately, and scanned the more than ten puppet officers in the conference room with sharp eyes.

"What General Maeda said is absolutely true!"

"The Huben Army is our common enemy!"

"The Imperial Japanese Army is invincible in every attack!"

"The Huben army doesn't know what is good or bad, so it will definitely die an ugly death!"

Qu Bao, Mei Xin, Ruan Cheng and others immediately began to flatter their horses, expressing their determination impassionedly, just like a group of loyal pugs.

However, almost everyone is cursing in their hearts: I believe you, you bastard, you old man, if it is true as you said, would you still force us to be cannon fodder now?

It's just that everyone knows that there must be no noise at this time, otherwise most of them will be killed as an example, and they will be dragged out and shot for 3 minutes.

"Very well, the Imperial Army of Japan will never treat my friends badly. As long as everyone cooperates sincerely, the Imperial Army of Japan will definitely give you enough glory and wealth!"

Maeda Zhi nodded with a smile on his face, how could he not know the true thoughts of these puppet generals, but so what?

In the face of bullets and bayonets, these guys who are greedy for life and death have to obediently go to the front line as cannon fodder. Even if they can't stop the attack of the Tiger Army, they can at least slow down the attack of the Tiger Army and consume a certain amount.

As for how many of these puppet troops can survive and what they will think before they die, Maeda Osamu doesn't care at all, and even made two-handed preparations. Once these puppet troops dare to retreat or turn back, they will be killed together. Light.

At the same time, Maeda Osamu did not have any cards to play, so he could only bite the bullet and "drive the dog to kill the tiger"!

Chongqing Huangshan Villa.

Chairman Jiang has always had the habit of waking up early for morning exercises, and this morning was no exception. However, just as he walked out of the villa with a few out-of-favors and was about to go for a walk in the forest path, Dai Li hurried over.

Seeing that Dai Li came in a hurry, Chairman Jiang frowned and said, "Yunong, you are in such a hurry, is there something serious going on?"

"Commissioner, I do have something important to report to you!"

Dai Li nodded, and continued: "Commissioner, the Japanese 21st Army and 22nd Army launched a massive counterattack last night, mobilizing a total force of more than [-] troops and using more than [-] tanks and chariots.

The Huben army held the bridgehead position on the north bank and launched a life-and-death battle with the Japanese army. The fierce battle lasted for nearly four hours,..."

"Annihilate 6 or [-] Japanese aggressors in one night? Well, the fight is good, the wicked should be punished by the wicked, and the devils in the country should be beaten up!"

After listening to Dai Li's narration, Generalissimo Jiang could not help but smile. Although after discussion, most people did not agree to go to the muddy water at this time, but this did not hinder the attention and good mood.

Dai Li went on to say: "In addition, we also uncovered the urgent telegram sent by the Japanese army base camp to the Kwantung Army. The Japanese army base camp urgently dispatched the Kwantung Army to go south to participate in the war, encircling and annihilating the Huben Army."

Generalissimo Jiang snorted coldly: "Hehe, it seems that Little Japan has been hurt and anxious this time, and finally he is willing to transfer the Kwantung Army to Shandong to fight desperately with the Huben Army."

Zhang Zhizhong, who was standing on the side, seconded: "Yes, the Tiger and Ben army's offensive was too sharp, and it took only half a day to gain a firm foothold on the north bank of the Yellow River, tearing a big gap in the Yellow River defense line that the devils have painstakingly managed for a long time.

In this way, the entire Lubei Plain was exposed to the muzzle and artillery range of the Huben Army. If it was not done well, the Lubei Plain would fall completely, and it would even further threaten the North China Plain. Can the devil not be impatient? "

Chapter 1240

At five o'clock in the morning on October 10, the defense line along the north bank of the Yellow River.

The rising sun crossed the sea level, spreading its red light to the world, gradually dispelling the darkness that shrouded the earth, and slowly, the sky was finally dawning.

Song Guoqiang stood blankly on a trench on the north bank, looking at everything around him silently.

The battlefield was preliminarily cleaned up last night, and all the wounded and dead bodies of the Huben Army were transported to the south bank.

At this moment, all that remained on the battlefield were the corpses of the devils, the wreckage of tanks, flesh and blood tissues scattered all over the place, and various damaged firearms and artillery.

Looking around, there are signs of fierce fighting everywhere, even if Song Guoqiang did not come to the scene last night, but from everything in front of him, he can still clearly feel that the brutality of the battle last night reached unimaginable heights!

"Cough, cough, cough!"

The gunpowder smoke had cleared away, but the heavy bloody smell was still extremely strong. When a cold morning wind came, Song Guoqiang felt the fishy smell rushing into his nose and itchy throat, making him uncomfortable.

"report!"

At this moment, a young staff officer came to Song Guoqiang, saluted and said, "Deputy Commander Song, the statistics of our army's battle situation have been released."

"Read!"

Song Guoqiang nodded with a heavy heart. He didn't have the courage to reach out and take the report to check it himself, but he had to face what he had to face.

"Yes!"

The young staff officer responded, holding the document and reading softly: "As of now, our army has suffered 2042 casualties, 1245 serious injuries, 57**** minor injuries, and a total of 9076 casualties.

Up to now, the loss of our army's weapons and equipment is as follows:

48 heavy tanks, 72 medium tanks, 24 armored vehicles, 9 helicopters, 12 self-propelled artillery, 17 self-propelled rocket launchers, 155 16mm heavy artillery, 22 anti-war guns, 98 rocket launchers, and other field artillery and mountain artillery There are 198 guns in total, more than 7200 guns of various types, more than 150 million bullets of various types, more than 3.7 shells, and more than 100 tons of bombs..."

"2042 people were killed, 1245 were seriously injured,..."

Song Guoqiang silently read the casualty data and heaved a sigh of relief. The casualties cannot be said to be small, but they are still within the tolerable range, and it is not too much of a loss.

As for the loss of technical equipment and weapons and ammunition, there is no need to think too much about it. Although the loss is huge, it is worthwhile to use them in exchange for the lives of more soldiers.

After a pause, Song Guoqiang changed the subject and asked, "How's our army doing?"

The young staff officer quickly replied: "According to preliminary statistics, so far our army has annihilated more than 35 people from the 60th and 1.9th Divisions of the Japanese Army, destroyed more than 260 Japanese tanks and chariots, and more than 400 artillery pieces of various types!"

"Good! Good! Good! It's equivalent to that we have killed a division of the devils, and the blood of the brothers has not been shed in vain."

Song Guoqiang yelled three good words again and again, not a minor injury, and he was able to achieve a casualty ratio of 1:6, which is indeed enough to be proud of.

"Old Song, I knew you were here!"

就在这时，梁健良带着第8军军长吴茂宁、第8军参谋长向亮新、第15师师长郝刚致、第16师师长岑树康等第8军高级将领来到北岸战场。

"Old Liang, Old Wu, Chief of Staff Xiang, Master Hao, Master Cen, you are all here!"

Song Guoqiang forced a smile and nodded politely. He naturally knew what Wu Maoning was here for.

Just half an hour ago, Song Guoqiang had just received a call from Miao Dadong, asking all members of their 2nd Army to retreat to rest and replace them with the 8th Army to continue the attack.

At that time, Song Guoqiang was so excited that he almost scolded his mother. He couldn't understand why Miao Dadong replaced their 2nd Army so quickly, and hurriedly explained to Miao Dadong that their 2nd Army only had half a division's strength damaged. With nearly 4 active forces, we can definitely make persistent efforts!

Song Guoqiang, who was eager for revenge, would be willing to withdraw like this, and repeatedly assured Miao Dadong that their 2nd Army would definitely conquer Jiyang County and Shanghe County within the stipulated time according to the original plan!

However, Miao Dadong did not change his mind because of this. After explaining a few words, he asked them to execute the order in an orderly tone, and was ready to switch defenses with the 8th Army after dawn.

So until now Song Guoqiang is still very resistant, and he still can't figure out why they just replaced their 2nd army like this, why not replace the other 3 armies?

Speaking of casualties and attrition, the other 3 armies don't seem to be much lighter than our 2nd army?

Seeing that Song Guoqiang was not in a good mood, Wu Maoning walked up to him with a smile and said, "Old Song, I know that what you want to do most now is to avenge your dead brothers. I can completely understand your feelings.

But you have been fighting continuously for a day and a night, not only the casualties of the troops are not small, but also the technical equipment is almost consumed, the next battle will definitely be difficult!

And what we need now is a quick battle and a quick decision. We must grab a foothold in the Lubei Plain before the Devils Kwantung Army arrives in Shandong, so we must be quick, precise and ruthless! "

What Wu Maoning said was sincere and very reasonable, but at the moment Song Guoqiang couldn't listen to these words, and his face was still not very good-looking.

"What? Your 8th Army is going to replace our 2nd Army? Why!"

"We haven't lost the battle yet, so why not let us fight?"

"No, absolutely not! We are determined not to agree!"

"None of our 2nd Army is a coward, even if they are going to die, they will die on the way to charge!"
