However, Jindo Inoue had already been brainwashed by the Bushido spirit. What he needed was military merit and honor!
Now that he had the support of General Shouyi, as long as he could behead the commander of the Chinese army, the series of mistakes he had made would be written off. He might even be promoted and put in an important position by Shouyi!
Thinking of this, Jintu Inoue was so excited that his entire body trembled.
"Faster, faster, faster!”
Jintu Inoue shouted at the chariot driver.
"Ha Yi!"
The chariot driver bowed deeply and increased the horsepower of the chariot to the maximum. The bean chariot let out a deafening roar and sped forward.
However, the good times didn't last long. The chariot had only traveled for a short distance when a loud sound came from ahead.
Then, the chariot came to a stop with a creak.
"What happened up ahead? Where did the explosion come from?"
Jintu Inoue suddenly stood up and said angrily," Why did you stop?”
The Japanese soldier who was observing the situation in front of the observation hole immediately turned around and reported,""Commander, the bridge in front has been blown up by the Chinese army. Tank 7 has sunk into the river.”
"Nani? The bridge was destroyed?"
When Jintu Inoue heard this, he could not help but burn with anger.
The Chinese were crafty and cunning. They wanted to delay time by blowing up the highway bridge so that their main force could retreat!
"We can't let the Chinese people succeed!”
Inoue Kanto pushed open the car door in exasperation and hurriedly got out of the car. He strode to the river and saw that the bridge that was originally built over the river had been blown up. A bean tank had flipped into the river, and the driver of the tank was struggling to climb out of the roof.
The air was still filled with the smell of gunpowder after the explosion.
Suzuki got down from a Type 95 light tank and said anxiously,""Your Excellency, what should we do now?”
The 5th Brigade and the 140th Brigade fought fiercely in Liujiaxing Town for three days and three nights. Suzuki was very familiar with the terrain in this area.
Suzuki didn't need to look at the map to figure out the terrain around Liujiaxing Town.
The highway bridge that had been blown up was the only large bridge into Liujiaxing Town. Other than this highway bridge, the rest were all wooden bridges.
The wooden bridge could only allow people to pass through, but chariots could never pass through.
More importantly, if the Chinese army blew up the highway bridge, would they leave the wooden bridge behind for them?
As expected, just as Suzuki finished speaking, two loud explosions sounded not far away. Two wooden bridges not far from the highway bridge were also blown up.
Seeing this scene, Jintu Inoue was so angry that his face turned ashen. He gritted his teeth and cursed.
However, after cursing, Jintu Inoue was at his wit's end. He was not a god, so he naturally could not make his chariot and army grow wings and fly over.
He immediately ordered the engineers to repair the bridge. At the same time, he ordered Suzuki to send an infantry squadron across the river. They would hold back the Chinese army at all costs. Firstly, they would ensure the safety of the command center. Secondly, they would not let the Chinese army retreat.
This time, he was determined to completely destroy this Chinese army!
Until now, Jintu Inoue still didn't know that his command center had been destroyed.
In the distance, outside the Japanese's headquarters on high ground, more than a dozen 75mm field cannons were lined up.
Feng Jinsong squatted in front of a 75mm field cannon and turned the wheel on the cannon seat. With a creaking sound, the muzzle that was originally pointing in the air slowly lowered.
He closed one of his eyes and stretched out his right thumb, gesturing at the Japanese tank squadron in the distance, measuring the distance.
When Lin Feng saw Feng Jinsong's stance, he had an idea.
Without using a ruler and only using one's fingers to measure, one would not even think about it if they did not have a few years of artillery experience. Otherwise, the shells would fly to their grandmother's house.
After measuring the distance between them and the Japanese, Feng Jinsong shouted,"What are you all standing there for? 32 degrees, target the Japanese convoy in front.”
Following Feng Jinsong's shout, several officers began to shake the wheel on the cannon seat. Soon, all the muzzles were adjusted into position.
Feng Jinsong quickly adjusted each cannon and then shouted without looking back,"Cannonball, give me a reload!”
Before he could finish shouting, a 75mm explosive bomb was loaded into the barrel. Feng Jinsong turned his head and saw that it was Lin Feng who was loading the bomb." Officer Lin, why are you loading the bomb for me?"”
"Why can't I be your reloading player? As long as you hit accurately, I'll even wash your feet!”
Feng Jinsong naturally knew that Lin Feng was joking, but his heart was warm. At this moment, more than ten field cannons had been loaded. Feng Jinsong pulled the firing rope hard, and the cannon let out a deafening roar.
The front of the cannon barrel spat out a burst of flames. In the dawn, it was extremely dazzling and dazzling!
Boom!
Feng Jinsong was indeed an old artillery soldier who had received professional training from a German instructor. This round of artillery was accurate and landed on Jintu Inoue's command vehicle, exploding with a bang!
With a loud bang, the American Dodge sedan that Jintu Inoue was in flew into the sky. The few Japanese soldiers standing around the car did not have time to react and were instantly blown up into a bloody mess.
The Japanese had a weak industry and did not produce jeeps alone. Other than a batch of Dodge sedans imported from the United States in the early days, they could only ride sidecars, motorcycles, and trucks.
Kanto Inoue had gotten out of the car to check on the blown up highway bridge and luckily escaped death. However, he was directly flipped over by the shock wave of the explosion and fell to the ground in a daze.
"Baka!"
Inoue Kanto crawled up from the ground with a face covered in dust. He gritted his teeth and cursed," What happened? Were the artillery blind? Where were they firing at?”
Inoue Kanotsu was stunned by the explosion. He did not react for a moment and thought that the cannon was fired by his own artillery by mistake.
Not far away, Suzuki rushed over and shouted,""Your Excellency, quickly hide. This is not our artillery, but a field howitzer fired from the direction of the command center!”
"Nani?"
Jintu Inoue gasped when he heard that. His expression changed drastically." A field howitzer from the command center? Could it be that the Chinese army has already occupied our command center?”
In an instant, Jintu Inoue remembered that there were still field cannons in the command center that were ready to be transported to the Changzhou frontline.
Could it be that the bombardment just now was the Chinese army using their field howitzers?
Suzuki said bitterly,""I'm afraid so."
"Baka!"
All the hair on Kanto Inoue's body stood on end. He turned around and shouted hoarsely," Pass on my order. Evacuate! Evacuate!"
