Hundreds of millions of cloud explosive bombs were fired at the beginning, and horses were riding on

Malan Town.

Sato Brigade.

Jun Sato has been listening to the sound of gunfire in the distance.

I was very anxious, because this intensive artillery fire was not something the Suzuki Alliance could produce at all.

That must be the large force of the First Independent Division!

When the sound of gunfire disappeared, Jun Sato had already realized something.

So the communications soldier was quickly called.

"How about...Did anyone from the Suzuki Alliance send a telegram?"

Jun Sato asked.

"Your Excellency, General, there is no news about Colonel Suzuki."

"It's been more than two hours..."

The communications soldier said honestly that he had been staying in front of the radio for fear of missing any news.

After hearing this, Jun Sato knew what happened.

"Then I guess...the Suzuki Alliance is in danger."

"The round of shelling just now lasted too long, and the sound was so loud that it may have even reached the level of artillery fire coverage..."

"If I guess correctly, thousands of soldiers will die without preparation!"

"I didn't expect that the artillery fire of the First Independent Division was really so fierce. We underestimated the enemy."

Jun Sato has already imagined that scene...

Only by firing hundreds of cannons can the effect of the explosion just now be achieved.

He had already thought that the First Independent Division had a lot of artillery, but he heard the continuous sound of artillery.

Sato Juncai realized that there were not many cannons, but very many.

Even more than all the cannons of the Fifth Division combined!

In fact, what Sato Jun didn't know was that these were just two brigades plus half an artillery brigade.

The real salvo is yet to come.

"Wait another hour and see if there is any news from Suzuki United..."

"And send a reconnaissance team to conduct reconnaissance..."

The most important thing now is to know quickly whether the Suzuki Alliance has been annihilated.

If the Suzuki Regiment is really wiped out, it will be really difficult for the Independent Division to fight, and my plan will be ruined!

This is an extremely terrible thing.

"In addition, immediately send a telegram to General Asakamiya, saying that the Suzuki Regiment is likely to be completely wiped out..."

"The Sato Brigade is resting in Malan Town!"

Jun Sato ordered.

"Hi! General!"

"Your Majesty General, what should we do next?"

asked Hashimoto Yamaichi, the captain of another infantry regiment of Sato's brigade.

"Keep waiting, it will get dark soon."

"It's not advisable to march. Let's wait until tomorrow morning."

"If the Suzuki Regiment is eliminated, the First Independent Division will definitely not let us go..."

"Malan Town will be their first choice!"

Jun Sato has already thought about this problem. The First Independent Division is not a fool. The reconnaissance plane just now may have discovered his position.

"Order all soldiers to prepare for battle and send more sentries..."

"Prevent night attacks by the First Independent Division!"

Night fighting is what the Eighth Route Army is best at.

Now that they are deep in the territory of the First Independent Division, they must be more vigilant.

If the Independent Division makes a sudden attack, they will become flesh and blood!

.....

As soon as Long Wenwen left, the situation in Malan Town made new progress.

Zhang Yunqing had already received the information from the reconnaissance aircraft squadron.

"Division commander, the people from the reconnaissance squadron came back and reported that they have not discovered the large forces of the Fifth Division yet. They are all scattered."

"Currently, one is in the Malan area and the other is in the Hanzhuang area."

Third Brigade Commander Wang Shaoan had already appeared in Zhang Yunqing's room at this moment.

Zhang Yunqing looked at the map on the wall.

"Ma Lan... Hanzhuang is exactly the place we set up. This little devil has a pretty good sense of smell. He knows that Hanzhuang is also the key to taking Xiyang County..."

"But isn't this exactly what we want?"

"The Japs in Malan Town are probably from the brigade of the infantry regiment that Dabiao and the others defeated..."

"I originally wanted to lure us out, but unexpectedly, we were directly annihilated..."

"I don't know what they are going to think now."

Wang Shaoan also smiled and looked at Zhang Yunqing.

He also wanted to participate in the battle, but the division commander had already assigned tasks to the first and second brigades.

And they became the reserve team of Hanzhuang area.

"Division Commander, according to your opinion, the Japs in Malan Town are likely to have only one infantry regiment plus some other troops."

"The Hanzhuang area is where the main force of the Fifth Division is located..."

"Then what should we do now?"

Today, only the first and second brigade troops are stationed near Shangzhuang, Malan Town.

The troops of the third and fourth brigades sent some people to slowly rush to the Hanzhuang area.

But the number was not large, with only two groups of three to four thousand people.

"Take the initiative and fight back step by step!"

"Since they want to lure the snake out of its hole, let's catch them off guard!"

"Order, the first and second brigades slowly advance towards Malan Town!"

"Your third and fourth brigades will march towards the Hanzhuang area at 4 o'clock tomorrow morning!"

Zhang Yunqing wants to have a surprise battle. Now that he knows the location, he will take the initiative!

They are all located in Xiyang County. With the mechanization level of the Independent Division, it takes less than an hour to reach the Hanzhuang area!

By then, this will be the death day of Prince Asaka Palace Masahiko!

"All tanks of the armored force are dispatched!"

"The 16st Heavy Artillery Battalion of the Artillery Brigade rushed to the Hanzhuang area with 105 mm caliber howitzers..."

"The Second Heavy Artillery Battalion carries 12 150mm caliber howitzers..."

"The Third Heavy Artillery Battalion carries 12 152mm howitzers..."

"Mountain Artillery Battalion 32 Mountain Artillery..."

"The field artillery battalion has 32 75mm field guns...."

"Infantry artillery battalion 32 Type infantry guns..."

“轰炸机大队20架B29轰炸机、10架野马战斗机、5架伊尔10攻击机、5架猫头鹰侦察机全部做好准备.....”

Zhang Yunqing will dispatch more than 400 artillery pieces, including mortars, of the First Independent Division in this battle.

Come to a real artillery-covered feast.

He wants to wipe out all the devils of the Fifth Division in the Hanzhuang area!

More than 200 cannons fired together, which was much more spectacular than the bombing scene!

As soon as Wang Shaoan heard that his teacher had revealed all his wealth this time, he knew that this was a big war.

Annihilating the Fifth Division is extremely possible!

"Tomorrow, I will turn Hanzhuang area into a sea of ​​fire!"

"Even if it becomes ruins, we can still rebuild!"

"But the fifth division must all be left to me!"
