Speaking of which. 【. com text] Uemura Toshimichi waved his hand, stopping Takano Naomitsu Daisa's move to continue persuasion and said: "Takano-kun, after ordering the troops to cross the river, do not rest, and go straight to the front line of the Quartet with the degree of forced march. The opponent still thinks that we are marching slowly on the Diaolong River, so we will surprise them. ”

"Tell your troops, after crossing the river, take the squadron as the base to open up the march. Put more scouts in front. They were given a radio station, and the cavalry of the search wing was dispersed to the left and right flanks to closely monitor the movements of the left and right flanks of the marching group. ”

Just as Uemura was about to continue his confession, a sudden burst of cannon fire rang out on the west bank of the river and completely interrupted his conversation. Accompanied by this sudden burst of cannonballs, a burst of shells, although not dense, but extremely accurate, fell on the east bank of the river to the Japanese army waiting to cross the river.

The queues that had been lined up on the east bank of the river and were waiting to cross the river were instantly torn apart by the shells that hit them in the face, and the shrapnel swept down the Japanese troops in pieces. The rafts in the middle of the river, which were marching in a dense formation to the center of the river, were also blown up by the shells, and the people were turned on their backs.

Since Uemura Toshimichi was surrounded by the largest number of guards, and the campfires lit around him were also the largest, the target was naturally the most obvious. He also had the most shells falling from his side. If it weren't for the quick reaction of the guards around him, he pushed Lieutenant General Kamimura into the pot helmet river in front of him, allowing him to survive, and Li Mingfeng's hard battle behind him could have been avoided.

When the sound of the cannon subsided, he was quickly pushed by the guards around him into the river and climbed back onto the riverbank. No longer has the so-called general demeanor of the past, and angrily said to the first captain of the search wing beside him, Kawada Jing Shaozuo, after a big mouth: "Baga, didn't you say that there are no enemy troops on the other side?" Could it be that the cannonballs smashed on the opposite side grew out of the ground? Your damned Wing Commander, call him to me right now. ”

Kawada Jing Shaozuo, who had suffered an unwarranted disaster, endured the burning pain on his face, pointed to a half-mutilated corpse on the side of the river embankment that had been blown up by a cannonball, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Excellency the division commander, that is our wing commander. He's this, this, I'm afraid he won't be able to come to see you. ”

I thought that the division commander would let him go when he told the captain of the sù joint that he was dead, but he didn't expect it, and the division commander in anger turned his head to look at the corpses in one place and the mutilated corpses in the river after the shelling, and he slammed his head and face: "You go and find out those damn anti-Manchurian forces for me immediately, now, immediately." ”

Looking at Lieutenant General Uemura Toshimichi in a rage, Kawada Shosa, whose left and right faces were pumped like a freshly baked bread, did not dare to delay in the slightest, and immediately concentrated his two cavalry search squadrons and a chariot wing that were still left on the east bank of the river, and immediately braved the shells from the opposite side from time to time, looking for a place to wade and immediately extend to the opposite bank.

As a result, as soon as I went ashore, I realized that my thoughts were too naïve. Originally, I thought that the other side did not make any kind of attack, but only suppressed it with machine gun fire for a few days, and had built relatively completed field fortifications, and the scene of the vanguard squadron that would not have any major events was even worse than that on the east bank of the river.

The vanguard squadron, which had been formed in the early stage of crossing the river, was suppressed by several machine guns fired by crossfire, and could not even lift its head in the fortifications. The fortifications were littered with severed limbs and severed arms from bullet hits. Looking at the tragic situation in the fortifications, Kawada i gasped. What kind of machine gun is this, even the sack full of earth that has been built into a fortification has been lightly pierced by it.

Just when Kawada Jing Shaozo was preparing to use several Type 92 cavalry chariots to cross the river to cover the vanguard squadron to fight to the death, at least he had to find out the opponent's troop allocation. However, he now has spent a lot of effort to cross the river in the rain of heavy mortar shells from the other side, and the light chariot, which was almost invincible on the battlefield of China before, but has now become a key target, was actually beaten into a colander under the strafing of the opponent's machine guns.

Several tanks had just crossed the river, and before a single shot could be fired, they were lost. This made Kawada Well Shaozo angry for three points, plus seven points for fear. Whether the cavalry he brought can play a role, he really can't guarantee it. But as soon as he looked back and remembered the angry demeanor of the division commander, Kawada Jing Shaozo gritted his teeth and took advantage of the pause in the opponent's firepower to sneak back under the river embankment.

With two squadrons of cavalry, along the path opened by the vanguard squadron on the embankment by the river, rushed up. The division commander ordered to find out the enemy situation in front of him, but now that the opponent had obviously launched, he could only make a tentative attack if he wanted to find out the enemy situation. In any case, at least rely on the impact of cavalry to break through the opponent's first-line defensive position.

Looking at the Kawada Jing Shaosa on the west bank of the river and the cavalry attacking, the east bank is now soaking wet, and Uemura Toshimichi, who was lying behind the river embankment in a wolf body, said to Takano Naomitsu Dasa beside him: "You immediately organize your troops and immediately launch a group attack on the west bank." Be sure to break through the defenses of the defenders on the opposite shore by early tomorrow morning. In addition, concentrate all the artillery and suppress the opponent's artillery for me. ”

Although he was able to evade the sudden shelling with his dexterity, his head was cut by scattered shrapnel and wrapped like a large cotton ball. At this time, Takano Nao, who was observing the battle situation on the west bank of the river, heard the division commander put down the telescope in his hand and said to Uemura Toshimichi beside him: "Your Excellency the division commander, since the battle has begun, it means that our tactical intentions have been exposed. ”

"And judging by the size of the opponent's artillery at least one brigade, we should have met their main force. Let's see if we're slowing down our march. At least we have to wait for the 50th Wing to come over, otherwise our strength here is not a little thin. ”

"One of their brigades has more than 10,000 troops, and they may have more than one brigade in front of us. And we are less than 6,000 here, and our main artillery force is still on the front line of the Diaolong River, at least we have to wait for the artillery to come over before making the next step. Your Excellency Division Commander, we cannot repeat the mistakes of the 6th and 11th Divisions. ”

Uemura shook his head: "Their main force won't be here, that's how I feel." I don't care if the intelligence of the military command is true or not, but my instincts can't be wrong. This is not the kind of deep mountainous area we are going to reach, it is all some shallow mountain terrain that cannot ambush a large army. ”

"Judging from their artillery firepower, it is at most the strength of a mountain artillery brigade, plus some heavy mortars. There was no heavy artillery on the report at all. No matter how confused the army field intelligence squadron is, it will not analyze the caliber of the wrong shell, right? So their main force is not here at all. ”

"Their main force is not with the 14th Division on the Western Front, but it should have secretly moved to the Eastern Front. No, it should be the 11th Division, which is waiting on the Eastern Front to take the bait to succeed the 8th Division. The terrain in that area is more suitable for ambushes. As for us, they have not yet put the 29th Division in their eyes. In their minds, the old standing divisions like the eighth and eleventh are their real opponents. ”

"They thought they would fool me by moving a part of their forces westward with a feint? They also underestimated the IQ of an imperial lieutenant general. Although the pressure on the front and left and right flanks of the 14th Division was great, only small units of the opposing side were moving behind them. Moreover, judging from the regular briefing of the army headquarters this morning, since this morning, their offensive on the Western Front has gradually begun to weaken. ”

"The casualties are too large, what a joke. The waste of the army's field intelligence team didn't even know how many troops the other side had, so they dared to say nonsense that the opponent's offensive weakened because the opponent had suffered too many casualties in the previous battle. The opponent has always planned and then moved, so if you don't have the strength to fight halfway, how can such a scheming person do something? ”

"After suffering so many losses, I still remember to eat or not, and I still haven't changed my opinion of underestimating the enemy in my heart. The people in the intelligence department are a bunch of ignorant, arrogant stupid pigs, a bunch of scrap that they don't have. None of the information that came down could be trusted. So for us at the moment, we can only rely on our own intuition and smell in battle. ”

"Takaya-kun, the essence of bushido is not only about bravery and fearlessness. He is more likely to learn to rely on his own head to solve problems. At that time, His Excellency Toyotomi Hideyoshi was able to go from a peasant boy to the post of general of the Japanese Empire and Sekihaku, who was in charge of the affairs of the Japanese Empire, and it was not achieved by bravery alone. ”

Hearing this, Takano Naomitsu was slightly stunned: "Your Excellency the division commander, why didn't you report this analysis to the army commander?" If the opponent's main force is really stealthily advancing eastward, then wouldn't it be very dangerous for the 11th Division? It would be better for you to inform the commander of the army, General Shigeichi Harata, of this situation. ”

Uemura Toshimichi waved his hand and said, "Lieutenant General Shigeichi Habata has always been overconfident. He wouldn't have believed it without solid information. Intuition is a thing that is very difficult to convince. Well, you have to show the spirit of a samurai, concentrate your forces and tear through the opponent's blocking line as quickly as possible, and stretch it out in depth. ”

"The Fifty Wing, when it's time for them to turn, they'll naturally turn around and head north. Your mission is to concentrate all the forces you can and break through your opponent's defenses. And the task of our divisions was to make a detour from the flank, make a breakthrough, and threaten the rear of their entire battlefield on the Eastern Front. In order to regain the initiative that we did not have in the first place. ”

Speaking of this, Uemura Toshimichi patted Takano Naomitsu Osa on the shoulder and said, "Takano-kun, take out your samurai spirit and don't worry too much." Go ahead, don't think too much, and do your part for the Imperial Holy War. After this battle, I will definitely recommend you to the base camp. ”
