Chapter 624: Make a Big One
Although the air force's attack capability is now relatively limited and cannot inflict a large number of casualties on the enemy, they quickly showed their power in reconnaissance, harassment, and destruction of key local positions, and the movements of the little devils fell into control.
Either drop bombs to destroy the enemy's heavy artillery, or notify the artillery to bombard the enemy's assembly area, the little devil's heavy firepower was quickly suppressed by Shen Long's army, but on the other hand, the key to continuously bombarding the enemy army with heavy firepower is here.
The difference between this in and out is big, the strength of the little devils was originally inferior to Shen Long's side, and now they have lost the most important heavy firepower, their attack was thwarted as soon as it was launched, and they turned into a defensive posture, and the defense did not last long, Zhu Chuanwu led people to quickly break through their defense line and surround this little devil.
After the persuasion of surrender failed, the final attack was launched, and the little devils still wanted to win back a little bit through bayonet warfare, but they really found the wrong target this time, if it was about heavy firepower, although Shen Long's army was better than the little devils, it could not be compared with the armies of those European and American military powers, but when it came to bayonet hand-to-hand combat, then they dared to say that they were the first in the world.
Shen Long personally taught them bayonet skills, condensed the essence of the martial arts world, and figured out the routines, how could these little devils compare? Moreover, most of Shen Long's army were Shandong and Hebei people who broke into the eastern part of the country, and they were originally much taller than the little devils, and they had the advantage of long hands and feet, coupled with the world's leading bayonet technology, the little devils were not a child at all.
The little devils of this half division who attacked Fengtian City were quickly annihilated by Shen Long, except for a few who were lucky enough to escape, the rest either died on the battlefield or were captured, which made a good start with the first battle of the little devils.
When the news came out, the whole country was excited, and people kept pouring in from the Guannei, wanting to join Shen Long's army and jointly resist the attack of the little devils, and Shen Long's prestige rose again.
The little devil was furious when he heard the news, and immediately mobilized his troops to launch a more fierce attack, at this time, the assembly of Shen Long's army had also been completed, and the elite troops that were originally distributed in various places had gathered on the front line against the little devils, or lured the enemy to go deep into the encirclement and annihilation, or the little devils attacked head-on and then pushed back.
In a short period of time, the results of Shen Long's more than 20 years of operation broke out, and the little devils were beaten back again and again, not only failed to occupy an inch of land in the northeast, but also lost a lot of the territory they originally occupied, and were pushed all the way by Shen Long to the bank of the Yalu River, and the Japanese army on the Liaodong Peninsula only had a few coastal ports left.
Those port fortresses have been in operation for many years, easy to defend and difficult to attack, plus the support of naval guns, it is not easy to deal with for the time being, Shen Long did not want his men to suffer too much losses, so he surrounded them on the periphery, and let the rear mobilize heavy artillery to start an artillery battle with them, wanting to exercise and train the artillery.
After the more than 30,000 people prepared by the little devils were defeated and returned to the peninsula, there were only a few thousand people left, plus the garrison originally stationed on the peninsula, barely enough to gather 30,000 people, and now they didn't dare to say that only three or two divisions could solve the northeast, so they had to ask for help from home and ask them to send reinforcements to support.
It was also difficult to ride a tiger on the islands, and I originally thought that after taking the northeast, I could alleviate the economic crisis, but now I was hit by a bloody encounter in front of Shen Long's army, not only failed to attack the northeast, but also lost so many soldiers and munitions, and the territory I occupied before was also lost, which is miserable.
But now it is even more impossible to cease the war, not to mention the public opinion that is constantly clamoring for revenge in the country, even the economy is almost unable to hold on, and if you don't find a way to get the spoils of war, the economy of the whole country will collapse; As a last resort, they gritted their teeth and scraped together money to transport more than 50,000 people to fight.
For this reason, from the dark card to the prostitutes who came back from the South Seas, they all reduced their consumption, squeezed out food and money to support these troops, and on the streets of the archipelago, there were queues everywhere to donate their own gold and silver jewelry, so that the country could exchange it for ammunition to attack the people in the northeast.
There was a frenzied glow on their faces, but there was no trace of the same war victims in the post-war island films.
Having squeezed out almost the last vestige of the country's wealth, 50,000 soldiers, with their families and friends and relatives eagerly awaited, lined up on the troop transports bound for the mainland, this time with no intention of dividing their forces, but planned to transport them to the peninsula first, and then assemble to launch a new offensive with unprecedented speed and speed to deal with the enemy in front of them in one fell swoop.
It takes some time from preparing military expenses to sending troops, Shen Long can't just sit there and wait, he keeps sending troops to fight against the little devils entrenched in coastal ports and on the banks of the Yalu River, wanting to take advantage of the precious opportunity to further temper his army, and his army has not disappointed expectations, with the progress of the war again and again, this team has become stronger and stronger.
At the same time, the peninsula suddenly lost so many troops, and the high-pressure rule of the little devils on the peninsula became more and more stretched, and the guerrillas supported by Shen Long launched an offensive inside the peninsula, although they could not compete with the large army of the little devils, but they could still destroy a few railways, burn down a few warehouses where grain was stored, and kill a few officials close to the little devils.
There is Shen Long's army pressing the border by the river, and the internal chaos is continuous, which makes the little devils on the peninsula embarrassed, and they are afraid all day long.
The United States was pleasantly surprised, Shen Long's strength had exceeded their expectations, they felt that they could make higher investments in him, and the economic crisis had no chance, so they continued to send him a steady stream of equipment and technical personnel, Shen Long's strength was not only not weakened by the war, but even had a tendency to grow further.
The little devil was so angry that he protested again and again when he saw these ghost animals of the United States behaving like this, but they didn't care at all, and the little devil didn't dare to attack the Americans' merchant ships, so he could only stare angrily.
On the day of the troop carrier's departure, Shen Long also received news from various channels, according to his judgment, if this support force was defeated, the little devil would not be able to launch an offensive on the mainland within a few years.
So, let's make a big one and pack up all these reinforcements! Shen Long has been commanding the battle with Guo Songling in the rear during this time, and he hasn't had a chance to go to the front line, and now that the battle by the river has been controlled, he can also take a step out to show the little devil a little bit of power.
So, let's start with this batch of reinforcements!
