Soon, the tank also began to stop, and began to shoot at the strongholds and fortifications of the devils, and the infantry following the tank also began to quickly touch it.
It is relatively easy to fight a brigade, 6 regiments, and a few strongholds, because I don't want too many manpower damage, so the independent division has always wanted to crush the enemy with its own equipment, after all, not all fighters are members of the special combat team.
To the east, Chengkou Town, east of the Bohai Sea, Zhang Qian and a fleet had been waiting near here for a long time, just waiting for the news that Gan Xinda would give him a move.
Then, he received a telegram from Gan Xinda, so he immediately sent his marines to land in the town.
The town was not a strategic location, and the devils did not have too many troops to defend, and in general, the coastline, they left it to their navy to defend.
However, there is a watchtower built by devils by the sea, and the guards of this tower are only a small detachment of devils.
"Captain, captain, those are" A soldier with a telescope looked at the battleship on the sea, "the battleship of the Chinese people" The captain of the "Nani" Japanese squad also quickly picked up the binoculars, "Yalu, quickly report to the command headquarters, I found the Zhina people battleship on the surface of the Bohai Sea, and I am afraid that they will land and fight."
"Hi" Soon, the words of the captain of this squad were verified, and sure enough, from the bottom of the large battleship, small boats appeared that he did not recognize, and on the small boats, there were well-equipped soldiers of the independent division and an artillery piece.
From this alone, he judged that there was probably something big this time.
"Assemble urgently, everyone, evacuate the watchtower immediately and observe the enemy's movements covertly" "Hi" Soon, a small ship rushed to the beach, and the fighters sitting on it rushed ashore one after another.
"Team 1, speed search the devil's watchtower" "Yes" "Others, follow me and search everywhere, and don't disturb the people."
"Yes" Cangzhou, the Japanese military headquarters, was busy, the Japanese soldiers in the headquarters walked with the wind, and the phone kept ringing.
"Your Excellency the division commander, there is news from Cuikou Town and Chengkou Town, the independent division began to attack early in the morning, and now, the stronghold of Cuikou Town may have been defeated, and it will soon reach the territory of Cangzhou.
At the same time, the naval units of the independent division, and even the marines of the independent division, were also cooperated to carry out landing operations. ” "Nani" Japanese Vice Admiral had a calm face, he knew early on that they were at the junction with Shandong, and they would inevitably fight with the independent division in the future, but he didn't want to make contact with the independent division so quickly, you know, in the previous naval battle, the empire's navy actually lost, in the empire's position is so special, and so invincible, the navy actually lost to a navy that has been in the army for only a year, and lost the face of the empire, but even so, the strength of the independent division navy has been recognized by everyone.
Now that the independent division of the navy and land is fighting against Cangzhou, he is afraid that it will be difficult for him to stop it.
"Immediately, the relevant situation was compiled into a document and sent to the Tianjin Headquarters, requesting instructions and at the same time, ordering the troops on the side line to actively defend" "Hi" The Japanese lieutenant general was a little afraid, if he couldn't hold it here, would the independent division go straight to Tianjin Thinking of this, the Japanese lieutenant general even broke out in a cold sweat, and he knew who was there in Tianjin.
If Tianjin is lost, it will be tantamount to a big explosion, and what face will Japan have Tianjin, Tada Jun looked at the urgent telegram he had just received, and narrowed his eyes, "Immediately, summon the generals within ten minutes, and gather the headquarters" "Hi" So, the soldier took the order and left, and in the morning, many people had just gotten up.
When Tada Jun sat at the head of the command headquarters and watched the subordinates on weekdays arrive one by one, of course, the time did not wait long.
"Your Excellency Commander, why is it so urgent to gather everyone" Yoshikawa Nobu was the first to arrive, looking at Tada Jun, who was sitting on guard, and asked.
Tada Jun handed over the telegram, "What" Yoshikawa Shin was shocked, "The independent division actually attacked Cangzhou, and, perhaps, it was coming towards Tianjin" "What's wrong" Yukio Kasawara, who came in later, heard Yoshikawa Shin shouting, "The independent division has attacked" "Hi Your Excellency Chief of Staff, this is a telegram."
Yoshikawa handed the telegram to Yukio Kasawara again.
"How dare Yalu Zhou Weiguo attack like this" Yukio Kasahara was shocked, and he was about to say something, but was interrupted by a soldier, "Your Excellency Commander, Cangzhou Telegraph" Tada Jun took it lightly, looked at it, smiled, and handed it to Yukio Kasahara and Shin Yoshikawa.
"Nani Independent Division has taken Haixing County and is attacking the hinterland of Cangzhou" Yukio Kasahara said in disbelief, how long has it been since they knew the first news, and there have already been places lost, "How can the independent division break through so quickly with heavy defense on the Kanong sideline" "Take a closer look at the way the Independence Division attacked."
Tada Jun reminded that now, the independent division is calling the door, it is useless to be nervous, it is useless to be anxious, looking at the appearance of the independent division, I am afraid that it wants to solve it quickly.
After listening to Tada's reminder, the two calmed down a little and continued to read the details of the telegram.
The more they looked, the more frightened the two became, it turned out that where they were, is it so close to the independent division, think about it, the distance is no more than 100 kilometers, and if you drive, it will only take 3 hours to arrive.
In other words, Tianjin is critical.
Soon, the headquarters was full of people, most of the high-level officials, who had already arrived.
"Ladies and gentlemen, early this morning, the Independent Division launched an attack on the Cangzhou border, and as of now, the Independent Division is attacking the hinterland of Cangzhou.
I'm afraid it won't be long before the independent division will be in the city.
Tada Jun sat at the head and spoke.
"Nani" everyone was shocked, they never thought that the independent division would come to Tianjin, even if Tianjin was not far from Shandong.
"This is a telegram, let's take a look."
Nobu Yoshikawa and Yukio Kasawara sent the telegram down.
The first person to see it spoke first, "Your Excellency Commander, first immediately order Cangzhou to actively defend, be sure to hold off the independent division and immediately transfer troops to protect Tianjin."
"Your Excellency, Commander, I second" "Seconded below" "Seconded" For a time, everyone in the command agreed that although the Tianjin guard was strict, it was a little weak compared with the large-scale attack of the independent division.
If you don't transfer troops, I'm afraid you won't be able to hold it.
Tada Jun sighed, this is the high-level generals of the empire today, and no one wants to take the initiative to face the battle, they all have to deploy troops to defend, and there is a big difference between defense and taking the initiative to attack.
They have already tacitly acknowledged that their current strength is not as good as that of the independent division Everyone sighed when they saw Tada Jun, puzzled, "Your Excellency Commander, do you have any better ideas?"
