Chapter 496: "War General" VS "God of War"

??

Hua Zhenzhong took the 160 main peak of Dongguling to change the defense of Leng Xin's 52nd Division.

On the position with the smell of corpses, the two saluted together, Leng Xin's expression was serious, and said: "Master Hua, I will leave it to you here, the 52nd Division seems to have retired." ”

Hua Zhenzhong was smiling, giving people a very easy-going feeling, he smiled: "It is indeed a successful retirement, and I admire the 25th Army very much." ”

"Where, it is the honor of a soldier to sacrifice one's life for righteousness in the face of national calamity!"

Leng Xin had a somewhat ambitious tone, and he didn't seem to have enough fun in this battle.

After speaking, Leng Xin turned around and introduced: "They are falcons, and this battle has helped my 52nd Division a lot." Now they are willing to stay and continue to help you. He is very familiar with the area of Dongguling, and if you don't understand, you can ask him. ”

"Oh~" Hua Zhenzhong's expression changed, slightly excited, and said: "They are the famous falcons, and they have really admired the great name for a long time." When I was in Nanjing, I didn't have a chance to see each other, but today I finally got my wish. ”

Shao Fei took a step forward and said modestly: "The generals have won the award, they are all Chinese soldiers, and it is within their duty to kill the enemy and serve the country." When we were in Nanjing, we were in Yuhuatai, and after returning to the city, Nanjing also fell. ”

Hua Zhenzhong's 66th Army of Ye Zhao is unknown to ordinary people. When Nanjing was lost, due to the failure of Tang Shengzhi's communication and command system, other troops chose to break through from the crowded riverside, so the losses were extremely heavy.

At the moment of the great enemy, only Ye Zhao's 66th Army and Deng Longguang's 83rd Army dared to blaze a trail and fought their way out of the front without hesitation, tearing a hole in the Japanese encirclement, but as a result, they broke through safely and systematically at the minimum cost, and the combat effectiveness of Ye Zhao's 66th Army can be seen from this.

Shao Fei was very surprised when he saw the equipment of the soldiers of the 160th Division, all of which were Japanese-style equipment. 38 big covers, crooked handle light machine guns, 92 heavy machine guns...... Shao Fei is a blind person, how did he know the past of the 160th Division.

Leng Xin felt like an outsider on the side. Also, after we sang you, it was your turn, and now it was the turn of the 160th Division to sing the leading role. So he said: "Since you all have fought in Nanjing, and you are also acquaintances, I will leave it to you here." ”

"Okay, I will call the 101st Division to see the strength of the 160th Division!"

Immediately, Leng Xin took the remnants of the 52nd Division to leave Dongguling and go to the pass to join other troops to prepare for a new round of blocking battles.

And Shao Fei took Hua Zhenzhong to Dongguling to introduce the situation here in detail. Based on Shao Fei's account, Hua Zhenzhong quickly ordered the troops to rebuild their positions and set up a defensive line. Now Yujin Mountain and Xiguling have all fallen into the hands of the enemy, and the main peak of Dongguling is their last position.

Shao Fei didn't know Hua Zhenzhong yet, and he had never even heard of this person's name. How did he know that Hua Zhenzhong was not only known for being able to fight tough battles, but also his qualifications were even more staggering.

The average division commander is a major general, but his military rank is a lieutenant general. It is unbelievable that he graduated from the sixth phase of the Baoding Military Academy, and Zhang Fakui, Xue Yue, and Ye Ting were classmates at the same time.

The reason for this is that he is too capable of fighting a war to be politically sensitive, and he always makes mistakes all his life, and in his military career, merit and fault always increase in proportion.

???

Hua Zhenzhong is a well-known "general" of the Guangdong army because of his seniority and ability to fight tough battles, and the generals at all levels of the Guangdong army respect him for three points. His relationship with army commander Ye Zhao is even closer to that of a brother, and because of this special relationship, his division is slightly superior to other units in terms of personnel and weaponry.

Ito's 101st Division ran into Hua Zhenzhong's 160th Division, and his good calculations came to an end. And his military career will come to an end here.

Dongguling couldn't be attacked for a long time, and Ito, who was forced to be helpless, had to make a desperate bet and played the last trump card, the 101st Division.

The 101st Wing of the 101st Ito Division was the most powerful trump card of the division, and the commander of the wing, Kunigoro Iizuka, was known for his ferocity, cunning, combat bravery, and flexibility.

There is a saying that "people are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong", and as soon as Kunigoro Iizuka went into battle, he was accompanied by Japanese war reporters known as the "pen troops".

"Pen Unit" is the abbreviation of the Japanese Army's War Correspondents' Corps, which was specially set up by the Japanese base camp for the propaganda needs of the war of aggression against China. The "pen unit" has a complete range of categories, including text reporters, photojournalists, and reporters from news documentary film crews.

The "Pen Army" followed the troops as they were, and truly recorded the "feats of bloody battles" of the "Imperial Japanese Army" on Chinese soil, so as to inspire these samurai to sacrifice their lives for the emperor, thereby inciting more Japanese nationals to join the army and participate in the war.

Kunigoro Iizuka was a member of the Japanese army, a "fierce general", so he was naturally sought after by the reporters of the "pen army". At that time, Japan's "Yomiuri Shimbun" reporter Su Teng brought a war special information team composed of four people, including Xiao Yukio, Yamanaka, and Higuchi, carrying a movie camera, and followed Iizuka inch by inch. Iizuka's every move on the battlefield was ingested by Suten's footage.

The image of Iizuka is indeed photogenic, and it is a bit of a "fierce general". Iizuka's extraordinary appearance overjoyed the reporters of the Field Special Intelligence Team.

Because of the hard fighting under the scorching sun, Iizuka was tanned all over, his eyes were bloodshot, and his thick beard had not been shaved for days, and he was fluffy and curly all over his face, looking hideous, and he had a "fierce Zhang Fei" image. Because of the hot weather, Iizuka was shirtless, revealing the well-developed chest muscles and arms of his upper body, and he was wearing a steel helmet on his head, which looked unusually fierce.

In today's words, Iizuka's appearance is indeed very visually impactful. Their keen professional vision tells them that they are lucky to have a big fish this time, and a blockbuster news documentary is about to be born in their hands.

In order to make the characters more vivid, Suten conducted a battlefield interview with Iizuka before the 101st Wing attacked Higashiguling.

Kunigoro Iizuka faced the camera and was not timid at all, he had seen a lot of this kind of scene. Iizuka is in a good mood today, in front of him is a camera that is turning on the camera "squeak", and behind him is the background of the Dongguling battlefield filled with gunpowder, and in the face of Suten's question, he talks eloquently.

"If the war is over, what are you going to do?" ”

Iizuka replied, "I love fishing, and after the war, if I am still alive, I will spend my days fishing quietly." ”

During the interview, Iizuka also told Suten one thing: his former wing commander of the 101st Wing, Jio Kana, was killed in the Battle of Songhu last year, and the battle was extremely brutal, when the 101st Division suffered heavy losses, and the entire division suffered 9,000 casualties, accounting for 80% of the total number of the division at that time. Most of his men were killed in that battle.

Despite the fact that it was an era known as the "Honorable War Death", there were still people in the country who hated Ghana so much that at night, Ghana's home in Tokyo was often thrown stones into his room. I don't want my family to be implicated and unsettled like Ghana.

From this point of view, Iizuka is still a real person. Facing the camera, he didn't sing a high note, nor did he say some bold words that should be said on such an occasion, but it was more like some complaints.

Su Teng didn't seem to have any objection to Iizuka's answer, after all, Iizuka has a good reputation, he is a well-known "fierce general", and a "god of war" in the eyes of the people. The next step is to shoot the image of this "god of war" on the battlefield, so that he can become famous all over the world!

Hua Zhenzhong was known as the "general" of the Cantonese army, while Kunigoro Iizuka was known as the "god of war" of the Japanese army. A bloody battle is about to start, and will it die in the end?
