Others show their swords, I show my missiles!

After escaping from the Beast-Exterminating Valley, the Japanese thought they had finally gotten rid of the People's Liberation Army's pursuit.

They generally believe that the terrain in the Beast-Exterminating Valley is rugged and complex, with gullies crisscrossing. For heavy infantry fighting vehicles, such terrain is undoubtedly a huge challenge and extremely difficult to pass.

Therefore, they naively thought that the People's Liberation Army would not pass through the Beast-killing Valley and pursue them here for a while.

Outside the Beast-Killing Valley, the Japs began to count the casualties.

The scene before them was shocking: the once mighty team had now become devastated, with nearly half of its personnel lost. There were corpses and broken limbs everywhere, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.

Despite the heavy losses, the Japs still did not dare to stay for too long.

Still with lingering fear, they continued to retreat, hoping to escape from this horrible place as soon as possible.

However, fate did not seem to give them this opportunity.

Just as they were moving forward in a panic, the rumbling sound of engines and deafening artillery fire suddenly came from the head.

The Japanese looked up in horror and saw dust flying in front of them and a well-equipped army approaching rapidly.

This unit is none other than the first battalion of the first regiment of our army's independent brigade. Their entire battalion is equipped with 30 ZTZ-41A main battle tanks and more than one hundred heavy infantry fighting vehicles. It is majestic and powerful.

Looking from a distance, you can hardly see any human figures, only rows of steel behemoths galloping towards you in the smoke and dust.

The Japanese soldiers were immediately frightened out of their wits. They had not expected that outside the Beast-Exterminating Valley, they would encounter such a powerful PLA force in their rear.

The People's Liberation Army that had just defeated us was also very powerful, but at least they had people, unlike this army: it was composed entirely of armored vehicles!

Now the Japanese only have rifles and machine guns, and they don’t even have many grenades left. How can we fight this war?

The Japs had no intention of resisting at all. They fled in panic, trying to avoid this powerful enemy.

However, the soldiers of the first battalion of the first regiment of our army had already prepared for battle.

They quickly deployed their formation, and tanks and infantry fighting vehicles rushed towards the Japs like a steel torrent.

Artillery fire roared, bullets whistled, and the entire Beast-Exterminating Valley was instantly engulfed in a sea of ​​fire.

Because the software system is still incomplete, the heavy armored combined battalion adopts "extensive" firepower coverage.

In fact, the combat effectiveness of the heavy armored combined battalion cannot be fully utilized.

Even so, the Japs were still unable to fight back under this fierce attack. They were beaten to pieces by the tanks' artillery fire and the infantry fighting vehicles' machine guns and were completely defeated.

Soon, most of the devils fell in a pool of blood, and only a few survivors escaped back to the depths of the Beast-Exterminating Valley in the chaos.

The remaining Japanese soldiers thought to themselves: If we had known earlier that there were such fierce PLA troops behind us, why would we have retreated? We should have given it a try and fought to the death with the PLA troops in front of us!

Of course, no one would tell these beasts in advance that the People's Liberation Army behind them is more powerful.

In just one day, several urgent telegrams piled up on Hata Ushichi's desk, each of which was full of battle conditions and developments on the front lines, and each of which made his mood fluctuate.

When the first telegram arrived, the words revealed the joy of victory.

The telegram mentioned that the Sixth Division had successfully crossed the legendary Beast-Slaying Valley without encountering any significant resistance during the entire process.

The most dangerous section of the road has been successfully conquered, and the road ahead seems bright, heralding the dawn of victory is about to come.

However, with the arrival of the second telegram, the situation began to change subtly.

The telegram stated that the division encountered stubborn resistance from the People's Liberation Army on its advance.

In order to break through the enemy's defense line, the division used the powerful Long-legged Cat cannon to launch a fierce bombardment on the enemy's front-line positions and achieved remarkable results.

A third telegram further described the intensity of the artillery battle.

The long-legged cat cannon engaged in a desperate battle with the enemy's artillery, and the artillery fire from both sides was deafening.

In this artillery battle, the enemy artillery had no time to pay attention to the front-line positions, which provided the 6th Division with a valuable opportunity to break through the enemy's defense.

However, the good times did not last long.

The fourth telegram brought depressing news.

The Long-legged Cat cannon suffered heavy losses in the continuous artillery battles and was almost completely lost.

The enemy's artillery re-aimed at the front line, our army suffered heavy losses, and the situation suddenly became serious.

The fifth telegram made matters worse.

The telegram mentioned that the enemy's firepower suddenly increased and our army was forced to move towards the Beast-Exterminating Valley.

This meant that the previous victory was wasted and the division was once again in trouble.

The sixth telegram brought the latest situation after the division's transfer.

Most of the division has successfully moved to the rear of the Beast-Exterminating Valley, but the price paid was heavy.

More than half of the division suffered casualties and morale was low.

Despite the difficulties, the division decided to continue moving eastward to look for new opportunities.

When he received the seventh telegram, General Hata Ushichi's mood had fallen to the bottom.

In this telegram, Guidi Waizhong requested tactical guidance, which undoubtedly questioned his ability as a commander.

Hata Ushichi's mood was like Xiaobai Xiaobai going down the stairs, sinking from the clouds to the bottom of the valley.

It knew very well that the battle had become extremely difficult and it needed to make a decision as soon as possible, not to reverse the situation, but to pull out the remnants of the Sixth Division.

"Which divisions are located closer to the Beast-Slaying Valley and can provide quick support?" Hata Ushichi asked nervously, frowning.

A staff officer immediately replied, "Commander, after analysis, the 9th, 13th, and 18th Divisions, as well as the 5th Division, which has suffered heavy damage but is still capable of fighting, are relatively close to the Beast Extermination Valley."

"Okay, act now!" Hata Ushichi gave a decisive order, "The Sixth Division is now in crisis. Order these divisions, including the Fifth Division, to immediately reinforce the Beast Extermination Valley. We have only one goal, and that is to rescue the Sixth Division at all costs!"

"Yes! I'll arrange it right away!" the staff officer responded, turned around and walked away quickly, ready to execute the order.

However, despite such arrangements, Hata Ushichi still could not calm down.

It is well aware that changes on the battlefield are unpredictable, especially when facing a tenacious opponent like the People's Liberation Army.

It thought doubtfully: According to common sense, after the Omanriks bombed Panlong, the PLA's logistical supply should have been seriously affected, and their combat sustainability should have been greatly reduced.

But the facts before us were completely the opposite. Not only had the PLA troops near the Beast-Exterminating Valley been fighting continuously without any reduction in their combat effectiveness, but they even had the spare capacity to send out troops, cleverly bypassed the 6th Division and surrounded it.

There must be some secret hidden in this.

Thinking of this, Hata Ushichi decided to further investigate the truth of the matter.

It ordered: "Let Chaozuoke take action immediately and carefully investigate the effect of Omanrek's bombing of Panlong! I always feel that there is something fishy here.

Why was the PLA's logistical base attacked, but their firepower continuity and density were not affected at all? There must be a secret that we have not yet discovered. "

However, the intelligence officer replied with difficulty: "Commander, I am afraid that the Chaozuo Department has run out of strength in Jin Province.

In the liberated areas, they did a very thorough job of identifying spies and special agents, and it was difficult for our spies to lurk there for a long time without being discovered.

Moreover, they also set up some very clever codes to test our spies.

For example, there was a question asking, "What kind of wine is in the 180-yuan cup?" Just this one question exposed the identities of more than a dozen of our outstanding spies.

What’s worse is that we still don’t know what the correct answer to this question is!”

After hearing this, Hata Ushichi remained silent. His worries grew even more serious and he was filled with deep helplessness.
