Chapter 195: Postponement of the Attack
Chapter 195: Postponement of the Attack
As Keisuke Miura Kenjiro listened to the number of casualties reported by various troops at the Jincheng Command Center, his face became increasingly unsightly.
He had long known that the Independent Column had built an airport and had intelligence on several aircraft.
However, he also thought that the independent column had obtained old Soviet aircraft, which had no deterrent power at all, so he did not take it seriously.
In order to prevent infiltration by the Chinese, the troops were not gathered in Jincheng, but were placed outside the city for easy isolation.
Although this reduced the possibility of infiltration, it also allowed the independent column's planes to bomb without any scruples.
In just over ten minutes of bombing, he lost more than three thousand Japanese soldiers!
As time went on, the increasing death toll made him unable to hold back any longer.
Inside the combat headquarters, Kei Miura Kenjiro looked at the sparse Japanese officers and his face turned as gloomy as liver.
"Baka! Are you all dumbfounded by the bombing of Xu Li's column's planes? Why haven't any officers from the 59th Brigade arrived yet?"
"Reporting to the General, the commander of the 59th Brigade and the captains and squadron leaders of each independent infantry battalion have all become unconscious and dizzy! Moreover..."
Kenjiro Keiichiro's brows tightened, his face looked like it was crawling with worms, he clenched his fists, supported himself on the table and stood up with difficulty.
"Nani?"
"And according to the military doctor's diagnosis, their symptoms are the same as the soldiers the day before, and their condition is even worse. They are likely to be loyal to the emperor!"
Kenjiro Keiichiro's legs went limp and he sat down on the stool. His eyes went dark, cold sweat broke out all over his body, and he heard a ding-dong sound in his ears.
"Didn't Doctor Miki pat his chest and assure me that the matter had been resolved? Could it be that the officers of the 59th Brigade were..."
Kenjiro Miura has gone crazy now.
In particular, he said that he did not trust the Japanese officers of the 59th Brigade.
It would be better to say that he was unwilling to accept the despair of "dying before achieving success".
"Bring me Doctor Miki!"
"The field hospital where Doctor Miki was working was destroyed by a heavy aerial bomb, and dozens of doctors and nurses disappeared!"
"Baga! Then have all the officers of the 59th Brigade crawl over here! Even if they are dead, send their bodies over here!"
"Hayi!"
Seeing that their boss was extremely angry, these staff officers did not dare to say a word and directly implemented the policy of the Japanese devil Qing Sanpu to the extreme.
A long hour passed in the war room.
Suddenly, there was a flurry of footsteps outside the door, and dozens of stretchers came in one after another, turning the combat meeting room into a "field hospital".
Kenjiro Keisuke Miura took a deep breath and prepared to accept the judgment of fate.
Most of the dozens of Japanese officers on stretchers were dying, and some were even covered with white cloth.
"Baga! Have you figured out what's going on?"
"General, according to Dr. Miki, the poison they were poisoned with was ricin, and there is no specific medicine. We can only follow the method previously used by the Chinese veterinarians for treatment, but this time the dosage was too high, and the treatment did not work."
The actions of military doctor Miki have been exposed one by one by the captain of the gendarmerie, so even if the Japanese devil Miki does not turn into steam, he will be chopped to death by Kenjiro Kei Miura.
It was just a few hundred Japanese soldiers who were poisoned.
As a result, he rashly brought the Chinese to the military camp because he wanted to gain credit. This not only caused the death of hundreds of Japanese soldiers in the 60th Brigade, but also directly paralyzed the command system of the 59th Brigade.
Kenjiro Keiichiro waved his hand and drove away these dead fish-like Japanese officers.
"The attack has been postponed to ten days later. The 59th Brigade has lost its combat effectiveness. All soldiers will be transferred to the 60th Brigade. Implementation will begin immediately!"
"Hayi!"
It has to be said that Kenjiro Kei Miura was very decisive. The merger of the two brigades not only filled the troop gap of the 60th Brigade caused by the bombing, but also minimized the impact of the paralysis of the 59th Brigade's command system.
Then the ruthless Japanese soldiers led by Qing Sanpu drove out most of the people in Jincheng.
After the reorganization order, the entire 60th Brigade entered Jincheng, mingling with the local people while maintaining a safe distance.
The independent column's planes were also unable to cope with the situation.
In addition, after the 35th Artillery Regiment secretly marched to Jincheng, they also quietly mingled with the local people.
In addition, Kenjiro Keiichiro sold his face for the last time and borrowed the 35th Infantry Regiment of the 35th Infantry Regiment of the 219th Division and the 35th Armored Vehicle Squadron from Kaifeng.
With the 219th Infantry Regiment and the 35th Armored Vehicle Squadron expected to arrive in ten days, the troops under the command of Kei Miura Kenjiro will be restored to more than Japanese soldiers and more than puppet troops.
"General Shinozuka, if the Empire still loses this battle, I will commit seppuku to apologize!"
"General Kei Sanura, please cherish this opportunity and save your personal reputation and that of the empire! Please!"
"Hayi!"
Taking advantage of the ten days gained by the Aviation Division, the 1st Regiment, with the help of engineering machinery, built a large number of reinforced concrete fortifications on Gaomiao Mountain, Niu Mountain and Longding Mountain.
Inside the headquarters of the independent column of the military fortress, Li Yunlong looked at the intelligence sent from the front line and felt emotional.
"The Air Force Division has done a great job this time. If the Japanese really launch an attack within three days, our civil engineering works will not be able to withstand their heavy artillery!"
"Yes, I'll treat Lao Lu to a drink later! Wang Huaibao's artillery regiment also entered our fortifications behind the three mountains in advance, and then we can fight the Japanese heavy artillery regiment one-on-one!"
Li Yunlong was a little worried. In the past, the artillery regiment's large-caliber artillery bullied the Japanese mountain artillery and field artillery. This time it was different. The Japanese heavy artillery regiment was equipped with 12 105 howitzers.
Although the number of their howitzer shells is less than that of the artillery regiment, the quality of individual Japanese artillerymen is higher than that of the artillery regiment, so the Japanese are now able to compete.
"Remind Wang Huaibao not to be careless or get hit by the Japanese. Our guns and artillerymen are precious!"
"Yes! By the way, Commander, today Division Commander Dai has also arrived at the designated location. He wants to ask about the specific battle deployment. Is he prepared?"
Li Yunlong is still hesitating whether to place the armored division on the front or on the flank.
If placed in the front, the armored division's mobility advantage cannot be brought into play.
If it were placed on the side, Zhang Dabiao and his team would be under a lot of pressure.
It is a bit of a pipe dream for a regiment of more than 6,000 people to withstand the attack of more than 20,000 enemies.
"I'm still thinking about it, but I prefer to put the armored division on the flank. When the Japanese attack Zhenghuan, we can directly attack the Japanese from the flank, making it impossible for the guards to take care of each other!"
"I agree. The Armored Division is good at attacking! Let the First Regiment defend the position!"
