Chapter 613: Another Fiasco

Rewind the time to a few minutes ago.

The four infantry wings that had been attacked had already squeezed the national forces in Hankow and Hanyang into a narrow area, and the battle would soon be over, and both Higashikurenomiya and Machijiri were happy.

Machijiri Liangji said with a lot of emotion: "Your Highness, from June 30 when the 10th Division came to Hankou City to today, two full months have passed, and we finally won!" ”

"yes, it's not easy to win." Higashikurenomiya said thoughtfully, "Not to mention the losses of Okamura Ningji's Eleventh Army on the Hunan and Jiangxi borders, just our Second Army suffered nearly 120,000 casualties in Wuhan!" Among them, more than 90,000 imperial soldiers are forever buried in Wuhan! ”

Machijiri said, "But fortunately, we still won the ...... after all."

Before the last word "Wuhan" was spoken, a cloud of smoke and dust suddenly rose in the direction of Hankou!

Almost at the same time, Higashikurenomiya Tsuruhiko also noticed the sudden rise of huge smoke and dust in the direction of Hankou!

Higashikurenomiya's eyes suddenly froze, and he said, "Machijiri-kun, what's going on with all this smoke and dust in Hankou?" ”

"This kind of smoke and dust is definitely not caused by the shells of the main tank gun or the battle defense gun, only the shells on the 150mm caliber or the aerial bombs above 50Kg have this effect!" Speaking of this, Machijiri said again, "It's broken, it must be another mine of the Shina Army!" ”

Before the words fell, clouds of smoke and dust rose from the direction of Hankou!

It was only at this time that the rumbling explosion finally came from Hankou!

Looking at the huge smoke and dust that bloomed one after another in the field of vision, the faces of Higashikure Palace Tsuruhiko and Machijiri Liangji immediately collapsed, because there was a lot of smoke and dust blooming this time, almost completely covering the central city of Hankou!

It is completely conceivable that the two infantry wings that have advanced to the central city of Hankou at this time will encounter at this moment!

After a long time, Higashikurenomiya Tsugahiko finally recovered from the shock, and said hatefully: "Damn, haven't we already reminded Shimizu Kishige and Ogisu Libing that when the attacking troops are advancing, they must pay attention to the surrounding environment to ensure that there are no buried mines!" Why do you still get hit? ”

……

Almost at the same time, Sun Liren went up to Turtle Mountain.

At this moment, the two of them are standing on the top of Yuwang Palace, overlooking the battle situation in Hanyang!

Sun Lidao: "Ziren, if I guessed correctly, at this moment, the veteran soldier of the East Kyuru Palace must be scolding, scolding the little devil who attacked so carelessly, knowing that we still have tens of thousands of mines converted from large-caliber high-explosive grenades in our hands, but they are still on our way!" ”

"Definitely!" Zhong Yi said, "If I am Dongjiu Gong Twisthiko, I will also scold!" ”

"That's right." Sun Liren smiled slightly, and said, "It's just that the East Kyuru Palace Twist Yan really blamed the devil troops who attacked this time!" These devils are actually very careful, and when they move forward, they will carefully inspect the ground, the houses and even the ruins on the side of the street to make sure that there are no buried mines underneath! ”

After a pause, he said: "But who would have thought that Ziren would start preparing for today's counterattack early half a month ago, and let the sappers bury the mines half a meter deep underground!" Unless the devil digs every street and alley to the bottom, it is impossible to find these mines! ”

Zhong Yi smiled and said: "The devils don't have time or can dig every street and alley to the bottom, so they can only be obediently blown up by our mines!" ”

Sun Liren also laughed, but soon the smile disappeared.

Sun Liren said again: "Ziren, but such a trick can be used once, and it won't work if you use it again!" Next, it's really desperate, can we fight to win? ”

Zhong Yi asked rhetorically: "Fumin, what do you think?" ”

"It's hard to say!" Sun Liren shook his head, and said again, "Ziren, the increase and reduction of troops you envisioned is very successful, and today, the devil must mistakenly think that we have less than 10,000 people left, otherwise we would never launch a general attack today!" But it is precisely because your increase and reduction of troops are too successful that the devils will attack with all their might! ”

"yes." Zhong Yi said, "Next, the devils will definitely launch a continuous onslaught!" ”

Sun Liren said: "Although there are still more than 50,000 people left in our Wuhan garrison, there are at least 110,000 devils on the opposite side, and once the devils start a general attack, their heavy artillery groups, aviation and chariot units will definitely be all kinds of weapons pouring out, and we may not be able to parry it!" ”

"You're right!" Zhong Yi thought so, and said, "But at least, we have won this battle, and the four infantry wings of the devil's attack this time are more than 13,000 people, and it would be good if they could escape half of them!" ”

……

An hour later, Higashikurenomiya Tsukihiko returned to the headquarters from the Toyoha Mountain observation post.

At this time, the four infantry wings that had broken into Hankou and Hanyang had already fled back, but when they entered it, they were four fully equipped infantry wings, with more than 13,000 people, and when they fled back, there were less than 7,000 people left!

In just one attack, the four divisions of the Second Army lost more than 6,000 people, and since the control of the battlefield fell into the hands of the Chinese army, these more than 6,000 people were basically the final death figures!

What made Higashikurenomiya Tsuruhiko even more annoyed was that a squadron of tanks and a squadron of anti-aircraft artillery that coordinated with the infantry attack could not escape back, and all of them were destroyed!

"Yaga!" In a hurry, Dongjiu Gong Twist Yan took out his saber and slashed the dwarf in front of him in half, and the sand table in the tent was stirred up again without subsiding from his anger!

Machijiri Liangji stood next to him, and he didn't dare to persuade at all.

Higashikurenomiya Tsuhiko was in a rage at this time, and if he said the wrong thing and was cut by him, it would be too wronged!

It took a long time for the anger in the chest of Higashikurenomiya to gradually subside, and then he turned around and said to Machijiri with a dark face: "Machijiri-kun, the situation is not quite right!" ”

After a pause, Higashikurenomiya said again: "Although the four infantry wings that attacked this time failed to find the mines buried in the ground by the Chinese army, they still learned the previous lesson, and did not use a dense formation, but the distance between the various infantry brigades and even the infantry squadrons was widened!" ”

"Therefore, the damage of landmines to the imperial army is not as serious as before!"

"However, the four infantry wings that attacked were still defeated by the Chinese army, and more than 13,000 elite imperial soldiers finally fled back less than 7,000 people!"

"What does that mean?"
