Chapter 98: In the midst of the catastrophe

Jinshanwei, Haiyuean.

Because the Sixth Division was advancing rapidly, it was approaching Qingpu, and the Kunisaki detachment had finally eliminated Zhong Yi's department entrenched in Jinshan County, Yanagawa Heisuke had a rare good night's sleep, and he finally got up until more than seven o'clock in the morning, and when he was about to wash, he suddenly heard a faint explosion.

"Huh?" Hearing the explosion, the old devil immediately turned his head to look north.

The explosion came from the north, and at a distance of at least twenty kilometers!

Twenty kilometers to the north is the county seat of Jinshan, is the battle not over?

Could it be that Noboru Kunisaki is lying? Zhong Yi's department was not wiped out by the imperial army?

Yanagawa Heisuke's brows furrowed, and a bad premonition faintly floated in his heart.

It's not that Yanagawa Heisuke thinks too much, it's really that Zhong Yi's opponent is too difficult.

At this time, Tetsujiro Yamada, chief of staff of the Tenth Army, hurriedly walked over.

Yanagawa Heisuke asked, "Yamada-kun, did you hear the explosion just now?" ”

"Hello!" Tetsujiro Yamada paused heavily, and said, "The explosion should have come from Jinshan County." ”

"Soga!" Yanagawa Heisuke's face became more and more gloomy, and he continued, "Yamada-kun, immediately call the Kunisaki detachment and ask what the explosion was just now?" ”

"Hello!" Tetsujiro Yamada turned around.

Seeing Tetsujiro Yamada leave, Yanagawa Heisuke was not in the mood to wash.

After a while, Tetsujiro Yamada walked back with a blushing face and reported, "Your Excellency Commander, something has happened!" The 6th Brigade of Field Heavy Artillery was attacked by the Chinese Army! ”

"Nani?" Yanagawa Heisuke's pupils suddenly contracted sharply, and he said urgently, "How is the situation now?" ”

However, before Tetsujiro Yamada could answer, a faint explosion was heard again from the north, and the movement was even louder!

Yanagawa Heisuke's face turned black all of a sudden, just listening to this movement, he could roughly guess that the situation was not good!

Sure enough, Tetsujiro Yamada shook his head and said with a solemn expression: "Your Excellency Commander, according to Matsushita-kun's report, the situation of the field heavy artillery brigade is very bad, I'm afraid it's ......."

Yanagawa Heisuke took a deep breath of cold air, tried his best to calm down, and asked, "What are you afraid of?" ”

"Hello!" Yamada Tetsujiro paused again, and then continued, "Although the 18th Division has rushed to Jinshan County for reinforcements, I am afraid that it will be too late in time, so the 6th Brigade of Field Heavy Artillery is afraid that it will be difficult to escape this time!" Being able to keep a tenth of the artillery is already a blessing! ”

"Nani?" Rao is Yanagawa Heisuke was already mentally prepared, but after hearing this answer, he still couldn't believe it, and said, "One-tenth of the artillery can't be saved?" ”

"Hello!" Tetsujiro Yamada replied, "I'm afraid so." ”

"Yaga!" Yanagawa Heisuke said in disbelief, "Which unit of the Shina Army attacked the 6th Brigade of the Field Heavy Artillery?" There is still a large force of government troops near Jinshan County? ”

Tetsujiro Yamada shook his head and said, "Your Excellency Commander, if I guess correctly, it was Zhong Yi's troops who attacked the 6th Brigade of Field Heavy Artillery!" ”

"Zhong Yi's troops?" Yanagawa Heisuke frowned and said, "Didn't most of Zhong Yi's troops be annihilated, and only a small part broke through and left?" How can they still be capable of attacking heavy artillery brigades? ”

Yamada Tetsujiro said: "The problem is that the Shina Army that attacked the heavy artillery brigade is only a few hundred people!" ”

"Nani?" Yanagawa Heisuke was dumbfounded, "A few hundred people dare to attack the heavy artillery brigade?" ”

"Hello!" Yamada Tetsujiro said, "They dressed up as the imperial army, and the heavy artillery brigade was caught off guard, and was successfully hijacked by Zhong Yi's subordinates, and then lowered the muzzle to fire directly at the rest of the heavy artillery, causing continuous ammunition explosion!" The explosion that Your Excellency Commander heard just now is the detonation of a cannonball! ”

"Yaga!" Yanagawa Heisuke said angrily, "Where is the Kunisaki detachment?" ”

"Hello!" Yamada Tetsujiro said, "The Kunisaki detachment is no longer in Jinshan County at the moment!" ”

"Nani?" Yanagawa Heisuke was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said, "The Kunisaki detachment has gone in the direction of Chuansha?" ”

According to the battle plan drawn up by the Japanese base camp, after the 10th Army captured Songjiang, it would then divide its troops into two routes, one way to attack and advance in the direction of Chuansha and Pudong, and cooperate with the main force of the Shanghai Dispatch Army to defeat the main force of Guojun in the Songhu battlefield, and the other way to go north to Qingpu and Kunshan, and cooperate with the 16th Division that landed at Baimaokou to cut off the back road of Guojun!

It is precisely because of this that Yanagawa Heisuke thinks that the Kunisaki detachment has killed Benkawasha overnight.

However, Tetsujiro Yamada shook his head and replied, "The Kunisaki detachment didn't go to Chuansha!" ”

"Didn't go to Chuansha?" Yanagawa Heisuke frowned and asked, "Where did the Kunisaki detachment go?" ”

"Jiaxing!" Tetsujiro Yamada stretched out his hand and pointed to the map, and said, "Judging from the time, the Kunisaki detachment should be almost outside Jiaxing City!" ”

"Yaga!" Yanagawa Heisuke's face immediately fell again, and he said angrily, "Noboru Kunizaki dares to disobey the orders of the base camp and the legion headquarters, it's simply unreasonable!" Is there a base camp in his eyes, and is there still me as a commander? ”

After a pause, Yanagawa Heisuke said again: "Yamada-kun, call the Kunisaki detachment and order them to stop advancing immediately!" ”

Tetsujiro Yamada shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Your Excellency Commander, I'm afraid Kunisaki-kun won't obey orders. ”

Yanagawa Heisuke was immediately silent, because the officers of the Japanese army had always had a tradition of following the restraints.

After a moment of silence, Yanagawa Heisuke gritted his teeth and said: "Yamada-kun, you still send a telegram to the Kunisaki detachment, telling Kunisaki Noboru about the attack on the 6th Brigade of the Field Heavy Artillery, and let him ask for more blessings, if this attack on Jiaxing cannot achieve the expected results, I will definitely send him to a military court!" ”

"Hello!" Tetsujiro Yamada.

……

At this time, on the Shanghai-Hangzhou Highway.

A convoy of more than 200 trucks is marching towards Jiaxing.

Following the convoy, there were also devil infantry on both sides of the road, and there were tens of thousands of people!

The armored car in which Noboru Kunisaki was riding was in the center of the convoy, and in the compartment, Noboru Kunisaki was closing his eyes and recuperating.

Suddenly, Kunisaki Noboru heard a cheer outside the carriage, and immediately approached the lookout hole, opened the cover again, and saw the officers and soldiers marching along both sides of the highway cheering with emotion.

Kunisaki Noboru looked in the direction of the officers and soldiers' attention.

At this time, the sky was already bright, so the sight was good, and Kunisaki saw a large castle emerging on the horizon in front of him at a glance!

Seeing this, Kunisaki Deng's eyes also flashed with joy.

Needless to say, the big city ahead must be Jiaxing City!

At that moment, Kunizaki Noboru turned around and said to Usamitaka who was in the same car: "Usami-kun, there is Jiaxing City in front, and our journey has officially begun!" ”
