Republic of China: Our great warlord has many children and many blessings

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud bang!

A shell fell next to Mitsui Tomita, commander of the Japanese 18th Army Division.

Mitsui Tomita's body was directly blown away by the air wave, his hands were blown off, and he was beyond recognition.

Before he died, Mitsui Tomita was wondering who the other party was.

Why is their artillery fire so intense?

"General Mitsui Tomita, the division commander, is dead!"

This news was like a hurricane, blowing to the entire battlefield. The Japanese army completely collapsed after hearing the news.

So, they carried Mitsui Tomita's body and quickly retreated.

Everyone began to retreat, unwilling to fight.

Seeing the Japanese retreat, Chu Yunfei He looked confused.

This first line of defense only had the strength of one regiment. Facing a Japanese division with nearly 40,000 people, Chu Yunfei originally thought that he wouldn't be able to hold on for long.

But he didn't expect that the opponent was so weak. He had a new understanding of the Japanese army's combat effectiveness, which was simply a few versions behind them.

After this battle, the Japanese army would definitely become cautious, and it would be impossible to lure the enemy deeper.

Thinking of this, Chu Yunfei regretted that he had already You know, you shouldn't be so fierce and should retreat.

However, the Japanese cavalry are a bit annoying. If you don't kill them, they will bite you in turn. You can't outrun him.

Chu Yunfei said:"Clean the battlefield and count the number of casualties. Discovered that the Japanese army did not want to be left alive"

""Yes" won the battle again, which made other soldiers excited

"Victory!"

"Victory!"

Everyone was cleaning the battlefield happily. There were still many injured Japanese soldiers left on the battlefield. Chu Yunfei's order was to leave no one alive.

Therefore, sporadic gunshots were heard from time to time.

In about an hour, the battlefield was cleaned.

"Reported to Commander Chu that 4,320 enemies were wiped out and 40 Japanese 75mm guns and field guns, 50 mortars and two 150mm projectile cannons were seized.

400 war horses and more than one million rounds of bullets;

60 Type 92 heavy machine guns, 5,000 38 rifles, as well as various grenades, command knives, pistols, etc."

Chu Yunfei said:"Yes, I understand, be careful. cling to"

"What about our casualties?"

"More than fifty people were injured, most of them caused by bomb fragments, and 13 people died."

Hearing this, Chu Yunfei nodded, this battle damage ratio is acceptable to him.

"General, there is a command sword here."

Chu Yunfei took the command sword, his eyes suddenly lit up and he said excitedly:

"The handle of the knife is actually made of ivory, and the tassel of the rope is golden. This is a command knife that only Japanese generals have. It seems that we killed a big fish this time."

Yu Qingfeng said doubtfully:"Just a command knife can figure it out?"

Chu Yunfei said excitedly:"Japanese sabers have levels.

The command knife worn by non-commissioned officers has an aluminum handle and no rope.

The rope is only worn by officers above the rank of lieutenant.

The command knife worn by the lieutenant has a copper handle and a blue tassel.

The handle of the command sword worn by the (college) sergeant is silver, and the tassel on the rope is red.

The general's sword has an ivory handle.

Of course, there are still some members of the Japanese royal family whose sword handles are made of jade.

So, a big fish must have been killed today.

You should search the battlefield immediately and take a look."

""Yes, Commander."

Soon, a soldier hurried over and said,"Commander, I found an epaulette."

Chu Yunfei took a closer look, his eyes lit up and he said with joy,"It's the rank epaulette of Army Lieutenant General. Sure enough, it exploded.""A big fish died, but I don't know who it is."

After receiving the news, Chu Yunfei immediately called Shen Hao.

At the same time, the news of the death of Mitsui Tomita, the commander of the 18th Army Division, also reached Navy Vice Admiral Tomosaburo Kato and and Army Lieutenant General Shibagoro.

The two looked at Mitsui Tomita's body and stood there in a daze, without saying a word for a long time.

Their hearts felt like they were struck by lightning!

They couldn't believe that a mere Wanwan Island could cause them to lose money. It was so tragic.

Even in the attack on Qingdao, less than 500 people died, and the largest officer was a colonel.

In Wanwan, a division commander, a lieutenant general, was killed. This is like a college student being killed by a first-year elementary school student. They were beaten to death.

But the try was right in front of them, so they couldn't help but not believe it.

Army Lieutenant General Shiba Goro was so angry that a lieutenant general died at the beginning. Not only was a cavalry regiment gone, but more than four thousand soldiers died. , this is simply a shame, how can he explain it to the cabinet.

He roared:"Baga! Tell me what happened."

A wing captain slowly explained:"The enemy we encountered this time was very powerful. Not only were they equipped with heavy Maxim machine guns, but they were also equipped with artillery regiments.

Moreover, the opponent's artillery fire was very intensive.

Twice as fast as our artillery fire.

Moreover, the other party’s technique is powerful." (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Bang!

Before he finished speaking, Shibagoro slapped him.

"Baga, how could the other party be so strong?"

""General Shibagoro, the facts said by his subordinates"

Kato Yusaburo didn't believe it in his heart, but so many people died, so he had to doubt it.

"Since you said their tactics are great, what are their main strengths?"

"Their trenches are very unique. They withstood one round of our shelling with no casualties.

Not only that, the Maxim heavy machine guns they arranged were not arranged in a straight line as usual, but in a triangular cross arrangement.

And it's very well concealed and camouflaged.

This cross-firing method has a wider field of view and can also prevent our shelling. The fire suppression is more than twice as strong as the straight line.

I have observed that the enemy does not even deploy heavy machine guns on the front, and relies entirely on the crossfire of heavy machine guns on the sides.

Even if we attack an area of ​​one kilometer, the opponent can easily shoot at us, and the bullets are very dense.

Although this arrangement has changed the position, the hit rate has been greatly improved.

Moreover, the opponent also has a lot of Maxim heavy machine guns.

An average of one tower is arranged every 50 meters."

"Are you sure you can stand up to 50 meters?", Kato Yusaburo said in disbelief;

""Yes, General."

Hearing this, Kato Tomosaburo and Shibagoro both took a breath.

The density of Maxim's arrangement was even greater than that of the German army.

The German army was already terrifying at 100 meters.

The key is how many bullets would be wasted..

If this statement is followed, then the opponent's firepower is stronger than theirs.

For a moment, Shibagoro felt that this opponent he had never met before was really too powerful.

Then wouldn't Shen Hao behind these people be even more powerful!

Thinking of this , Shibagoro's heart became more and more shocked.

He and Kato Yuzaburo looked at each other and could see each other's thoughts.

Without saying a word, the two hurriedly reported the situation here to the cabinet.

The other party is now like a lion eating a hedgehog, helpless. Come on.

If they don't cooperate with each other in a naval battle, there is really nothing they can do against each other.

And the news of the death of Mitsui Tomita, the commander of the 18th Army Division, also spread.

When Shen Hao learned the news, he was also a little surprised. He did not expect that this first battle It was so awesome.

So he immediately sent a telegram to express his praise.

At the same time, he sent the news to Jin Ruizhi and asked her to publish it in the newspaper.
