Chapter 600 When arrogance meets more arrogance!
This is the battlefield that Li Shoushan and the Japanese major saw near noon!
On the three hills 800 meters away, facing their direction, there was nothing left but criss-crossing trenches.
No one could be seen in the field of view of the telescope, but both of them knew that once they approached the shooting range, there would be countless blazing bullets flying towards them.
This is no longer something that their nearly half-disabled infantry brigade and infantry brigade can solve.
Kunizaki, who was on the march, received a telegram for help from eight kilometers away.
"Baga! A bunch of idiots!" Kunizaki, who was riding a green horse, threw away the message in his hand angrily, picked up the telescope hanging around his neck, and looked at the captured Jiepai Village position hundreds of meters away.
The craters are densely covered, and the loess blown up by aircraft bombs can be seen everywhere, and blood that has dried to brown is sprinkled on it, fully demonstrating to the Japanese major general the brutality of this battle.
But so what? Li Shoushan had 5,000 troops, more than 20 cannons, and bomber formations dispatched by the navy to provide fire support, but he still could not annihilate a "beggar" army from the mountains.
Intelligence showed that the Chinese army blocking the path of his army came from Sichuan Province. It was a group of troops that the Chinese themselves called the "Beggars" Army.
In this way, not only did they block the first brigade of the Jing'an Army for two days, they also re-established a blocking position on the main highway in the rear.
Why is Li Shoushan not a fool?
Slowly put down the telescope hanging around his neck, and ordered in a cold voice: "Order Li Shoushan and Takahashi Nohito not to act rashly for the time being, dispatch reconnaissance troops to survey the battlefield environment, and wait for the arrival of the main force of our detachment.
At the same time, I request naval support from the headquarters to carry out indiscriminate bombing of enemy positions before our troops arrive. Based on yesterday's experience, I request the navy to improve the accuracy of bombing.
In addition, I sent a telegram to Lieutenant General Niu Dao of the 18th Division that our detachment has captured the enemy's Guangde County and will continue to advance westward tomorrow. Please urge him to urge the baggage supply team to speed up and join our detachment! "
After saying that, he clamped his legs on the horse's belly and shouted softly: "All troops, speed up the march!"
On the simple highway, a long yellow queue of more than 7,000 people sped up and sped up.
“You are so arrogant!” Ushijima Sadao, who was dozens of kilometers away, blushed so hard that he almost lost his breath and vomited blood.
Kunizaki was stunned by the message. The title was quite polite. He called him Lieutenant General, but the content was just that he was regarded as the captain of the baggage brigade.
But Ushijima was full of energy, but there was nothing he could do.
The Kunisaki detachment is not the same as the unlucky kid from the 36th Infantry Brigade. The 36th Infantry Brigade is affiliated to the Sixth Division and is considered the backbone of the Tenth Army. The dead ghost Hisao Tani is gone again. Even if he is the commander in name only, , they also have to obey orders.
But the Kunisaki detachment was different. They were transferred from the Fifth Division by the North China Expeditionary Army Headquarters, and they had the fat guy Seishiro Itagaki behind them. That man's influence in the army was not comparable to that of Ushijima Sadao, a scumbag-level army lieutenant general who was reactivated because of the war.
Ushijima Sadao failed to score against the arrogant Kunisaki, but that doesn't mean the Navy is afraid of him.
Japanese people are all extremely rigid. Although they knew that the words of their Majesty the Major General were quite inappropriate, the Signal Corps still sent Kunizaki's original words to the Tenth Army Headquarters verbatim.
Such requests for forward generals who need support basically do not need to be approved by Yanagawa Heisuke, and are basically forwarded to the headquarters staff.
The Third Fleet Staff Department naturally received this letter of deep ridicule from the senior army generals.
'Army Malu is a typical example of someone who eats someone else's peach and still dislikes the sour one! ' The naval officers of the Third Fleet Staff Headquarters had a collective intimate encounter with Kunizaki's 18th generation female relatives.
However, due to military orders, combat aircraft must be mobilized.
For the sake of the future of the empire, the General of the Central China Expeditionary Force personally went on board the ship and negotiated with the senior navy generals, requesting the navy to fully support the army in conquering the Chinese capital, and also sent a one million yen allowance and more than 100 yuan. A woman.
Seeing that an army general almost "knelt down", the navy's top brass decided to keep a high profile and not be acquainted with these mainlanders for the time being. They gave up their prejudices and worked hard to fight for a better tomorrow for the empire.
Since the high-level officials have made the decision, it is not something that a group of assistant-level staff officers can refuse.
This military plane will be dispatched, but the number of dispatches is in the hands of these staff officers.
"The oil supply is extremely tight. The current oil storage is not enough to support the dispatch of a flying squadron. Then, dispatch a flying squad! The army and the mainland should be grateful to the great Imperial Navy." The colonel staff officer in charge of combat duty said lightly .
"Oh! By the way, by the way, tell the pilots about Army Malu's request for them to improve bombing accuracy! I think they know what to do." The four 96 bombers, under the personal leadership of Captain Nagano Toun, launched a menacing took off from the deck of the aircraft carrier.
Nagano Toyun was very angry.
What makes him angry is not that he failed to destroy the Chinese positions twice in a row, but that he was laughed at by the clowns of the Army Malu.
So, the most bizarre scene in the history of world war happened.
The huge roar of four fighter planes in the sky alerted the Hammer who was hiding in a tunnel in the mountain several kilometers away.
The red signal flares fired in the direction of the headquarters caused the soldiers in the three highland trenches to evacuate to the tunnels behind the mountain through the traffic trenches with their guns in hand. They only left four or five observation posts each to hide in machine gun bunkers made of hardwood and sandbags to look down the mountain. Make observations.
This caused most Chinese soldiers to miss a scene that made them jaw-dropping.
Japanese fighter planes circled two or three times at high altitude over the battlefield to determine the target they were about to bomb, but they did not lower their altitude to about 1,000 meters and start dropping bombs as usual.
Instead, two fighter planes were cruising at high altitude, and two fighter planes jumped into low altitude and performed a dive.
Of course, this is also a normal tactic.
The mountains in central Anhui are far less high than those in the south, with altitudes ranging from a few hundred meters to more than 100 meters.
For example, the altitude of Highland No. 1 is more than 300 meters, but Highland No. 2 and Highland 3 are much gentler, only half of the height of Highland No. 1.
The Japanese aircraft used the tactical action of diving to straf the battlefield easily with the airborne machine gun installed under its nose. Its diving speed was as high as 330 kilometers per hour, and the land-type heavy machine gun had a firing rate of 500 rounds per minute. There is no way to catch up.
Therefore, when the altitude of the Japanese aircraft dropped to about 400 meters, and the observation post hiding in the bunker could almost feel the roar of the Japanese aircraft and the airflow passing by, the Japanese aircraft's machine gun opened fire.
Four earth dragons formed by the bursts of fiery bullets are visible to the naked eye, extending on the ground.
The exclamations that erupted on the battlefield were clearly visible.
However, apart from being dull, the expressions on the Chinese observation post were not frightened by the machine gun fire.
The reason is very simple. The Japanese fighter planes were shooting wildly not at the top of the mountains.
Rather, there is a Japanese position that is still being excavated in full swing 600 meters away.
“Is this a camouflaged Chinese fighter plane? Or has our airport been captured? Or is the pilot crazy?” Li Shoushan and the Japanese major looked at each other in awe as they stood in the trench observing the battlefield with binoculars.
But these questions did not prevent the two professional soldiers from lying down in the trench regardless of etiquette, and were as disgraced as the other soldiers jumping around on the position.
This operation of accidental bombing has happened in Western countries.
But obviously, the Japanese army and mainland troops underestimated their fellow navy soldiers.
Looking at the panic on the ground, the two Japanese pilots in the flight cabin had satisfied smiles on their faces.
Four earth dragons disappeared into thin air more than 20 meters away from the Japanese army trenches.
“Army troops, how is the precision control of the glorious Imperial Navy?” Nagano Mizunun's voice sounded on the radio station.
The answer to him was laughter!
Two triumphant fighter planes showed off their control precision to a bunch of army buffoons, but they forgot that this was a battlefield.
The scar is healed and the pain is forgotten, which is the truest portrayal of stupidity.
