Yang Jihong sat on the military vehicle with his eyes closed and recuperated, his slightly fat body swaying from side to side with the truck.Please search and read the most complete, updated and fastest novels Since he became the commander-in-chief of artillery, his superior life has made him a lot fatter, and even a double chin has appeared."
Commander-in-chief, the Fifth Division has just cleared a county town ahead, and we can pass safely," said an officer who leaned over his car window at this moment.Yang Jihong opened his eyes slightly, nodded and said, "Then let the convoy speed up, the chief of staff has already taken Hengyang, and we can't delay time on the road." ”"Yes, go and deliver your order immediately" The officer jumped out of the car and went to convey Yang Jihong's order.The speed of the convoy soon increased, and the road leading to Xiangtan was full of heavy trucks with artillery hanging on them.One after another, like a long queue, filling the entire road.This time, under the protection of the Fifth and Sixth Divisions, Yang Jihong took the lead in advancing in the direction of Xiangtan in order to achieve the goal of a two-pronged approach.Whether it was Yang Jihong or the two division commanders, they all knew the importance of this operation.Only by surprise, and with an advantage in speed, can they really catch the Japanese off guard.After a morning of rapid marching, a report came from the front that they were not far from Zhuzhou County.As long as you pass Zhuzhou County, the following are the two places of Zhuzhou and Xiangtan.The Fifth Division had already rushed to Zhuzhou County, where the defenders were pitifully few, and it would not be long before all the enemies there could be cleaned up.Just as the army of the People's Liberation Army was urgently advancing, Okamura Ningji, who was in Changsha, was distressed by the battlefields in Changde and Huaihua.The national army launched a general offensive from both sides, and the total number of troops invested was close to 700,000, which can be described as an unprecedented major battle.The Japanese side invested a lot of troops, adding up to 500,000, almost half of the troops in Okamura Ninji's hands at the moment.If it had been before, the Japanese would have invested so many troops.Not only can you hold your position, but you can also counterattack the past.But now, with the help of the Americans, the national army has greatly improved its weaponry and the quality of its soldiers.Coupled with the air assistance of the Americans, it was already a great thing that the Japanese were able to hold their positions, not to mention a counteroffensive.What gave Okamura Ningji a headache was that the national army seemed to have eaten gunpowder, and they didn't play anymore when they fought.His troops were gradually showing signs of becoming unentrenched, and if they continued like this, it would not be long before his line began to shrink backwards.Okamura Ninji tapped his head, trying to calm himself down.After coming to China, he has fought for so many years, and he has never been so distressed as he is now.In the past, he only had 120,000 troops under his command, but at that time, he was able to fight the Chinese army running around.But now he has more than a million troops under his command, but he is being attacked by the Chinese army on both sides, and he is struggling to survive in this small area.He is now as aggrieved as he wants to be, and he has a million troops and is still beaten like this, if this is spread out, he will be looked down upon.Just when he was in a hurry, several of his subordinates hurriedly ran in and shouted in panic: "Sir, the people of China have captured Hengyang."
General Ogasawara and his subordinates are all shattered, and the tens of thousands of troops in Hengyang are all finished" Okamura Ninji heard the news and almost fainted without taking a breath.Several of his men immediately stepped forward, supported him, and put him back in his chair safely.Okamura Ninji gasped heavily, as if he had just undergone some intense exercise, his head was covered with cold sweat, and his whole person looked like he was about to collapse."
Your Excellency Commander, Your Excellency Commander, you must think about it, anything can be solved" The chief of staff and others who rushed to hear the news immediately comforted Okamura Ningji, at this time, if Okamura Ningji fell, they really had no backbone."
Hengyang is lost, and the people of China must be approaching Changsha.They will travel from Hengyang to here, at most three days" Okamura Ningji's brows furrowed tightly: "Even if the troops we sent from Jiangxi can arrive in time, the people of China will have already reached Changsha by then."
All our forces are on the front line to fight the national army, and as long as the PLA attacks from behind us, we will be finished" Everyone present actually understood the seriousness of the situation, and they all looked at Okamura Ninji, hoping that he would have a solution.After a while, Okamura stood up helplessly and walked to the map, as if he had aged several years in an instant.He stared at the map for a long time, and when the group of men behind him was about to wait any longer, he finally turned around."
The troops from Jiangxi, you can let them stop, just pick us up and go back along the way" Okamura Ningji said word by word: "As for the troops on the front line, let them immediately retreat slowly and make a posture to shrink the defense line" The devils around were startled, and the chief of staff took the lead in asking: "Your Excellency Commander, if we shrink the defense line, we may not be able to keep the whole of Hunan."
Now the national army is gaining momentum, if they are given a chance, the consequences will be out of control" Okamura Ningji sneered: "Until now, do you still think that you can keep Hunan" "If we don't retreat now, wait until three days, when the People's Liberation Army attacks the Xiangtan area, we will regret it too late" "Anyway, now that we have opened a gap from Ganzhou, the next step, we will withdraw from Hunan, enter Jiangxi, and enter Guangdong from there" "The order given to us from above was originally to give up Hunan and Jiangxi.This day is just coming early" Okamura Ningji sighed in his heart, in fact, the order given to him from above was that under the condition of keeping Jiangxi and Hunan, reinforcements would cooperate with them to seize Guangdong.If the situation is really bad, you can give up Hunan and Jiangxi first.However, now it seems that the situation is so bad that it cannot be worse, and it is necessary to abandon these two huge territories to ensure that they can survive the remaining Japanese troops.Seeing that the devils around him were silent, Okamura Ninji coughed and began to arrange the next combat mission, "Immediately order, all the troops in the Yongzhou area, including the Imperial Alliance Army, to retreat quickly to the Changsha area."
Then order our front-line troops, slowly shrink the front, do not give the national army any chance, and immediately withdraw troops to the Changsha area" Okamura Ning sighed with a long sigh: "Our era in Hunan has ended, and it is time to open up a new era" The devils in front of him bowed their heads together, although their faces were full of unwillingness and grief.But they know that China, which has risen, is no longer an opponent.No matter how unwilling they are, when it is time to fail, they must admit defeat, otherwise, they will all perish.Okamura's order was quickly conveyed to the front-line troops, and the Japanese troops in the Yongzhou area began to withdraw quickly.Before the national army reacted, it transported all the supplies and advanced to the Changsha area.The Japanese troops reinforced from Jiangxi stayed in the border area between Hunan and Jiangxi, scattered over a strip of more than 20 kilometers.They were ordered to receive the Japanese troops who had withdrawn from Hunan and smoothly enter the border of Jiangxi.At this time, the Fifth and Sixth Divisions, escorting artillery units, had already arrived in the area of Zhuzhou.At this time, the devils in Xiangtan and Zhuzhou were packing up their things and preparing to evacuate directly to Pingxiang.The devils in Zhuzhou suddenly saw a large number of PLA troops appearing in front of them, and they were so frightened that they hurriedly hid in the city.Even many devils began to flee to the Xiangtan area and directly left Zhuzhou behind.Seeing the devils trembling in Zhuzhou City now, Yang Jihong was in a good mood."
I said commander-in-chief, I'll leave it to you.The task of our bodyguards has been completed, it depends on how you play" The fifth and sixth division commanders walked over and said with a smile.Yang Jihong smiled at the two: "You guys are ready, take your troops into the city, Zhuzhou, as long as the shelling lasts for two hours, you can launch a full-scale general attack" "This is true" The two division commanders hurriedly asked."
Of course, our artillery never speaks," Yang Jihong said proudly."
Okay, with your words, we'll go and prepare" The two turned around excitedly and left.The next moment, Yang Jihong ordered all artillery to prepare to establish artillery positions.The artillerymen busily unloaded the artillery from the trucks, and then circled the city of Zhuzhou, making a semicircle, covering all the territory of Zhuzhou within the scope of the artillery bombardment.All this was done under the noses of the devils.frightened many devils and began to regret why they didn't run away in time, and now it's impossible to escape."
Hey, hey, I'm Shibata Dazuo stationed in Zhuzhou, we are all Shibata troops here, and there are a lot of artillery" "Yes, it's the Shiba army, I didn't talk nonsense, we did come, we did come" Shibata Dazuo yelled desperately, but on the other end of the phone, his superiors didn't believe it at all.Because they received the news that the People's Liberation Army had just taken Hengyang.Unless the other party can fly, it will be at least two or three days before they reach Zhuzhou, how can there be an army to reach Zhuzhou now."
Hey, hey, hey, you have to believe me" Shibata Osa was almost crying, but the phone line was suddenly interrupted, and there was no sound at all, obviously the line was cut off.Immediately after, the rumbling of artillery rang out outside, and the entire command trembled."
Quick, get ready to evacuate, get ready to get out of here" Shibata Osa rushed out of the command and shouted in horror.But it was impossible for the Japanese to escape.More than 800 artillery pieces blocked all sides of Zhuzhou, and little by little from the periphery began to encroach on the interior of Zhuzhou.The devil's position and bunker were reduced to pieces in an instant, and the sky and earth were full of blazing fire.Yang Jihong looked at Zhuzhou, which was bombed indiscriminately, and said with a smile: "It won't take two hours, and an hour will be about the same." ”aa2705221:
