During the Battle of Shanghai, the largest caliber cannon of the G Army was only the 150mm Krupp Heavy Cannon.
Now that they saw the 180mm cannon, not only Old Hu, but the 200-odd artillery soldiers behind them were also dumbfounded.
These people were recruited by Old Hu from the defeated soldiers who had come down from the W-Han army. After several consecutive battles, each unit did not have many cannons. Now, they had almost lost all of them. The artillery had either become cooks or infantry. When they heard Old Hu say that Lin Feng of the 24th Division had cannons, many people were skeptical.
Now that they saw such a large caliber howitzer, how could they not believe it? Everyone stared at these big guys in a daze, not knowing what to do.
"F * ck, you're embarrassing me here…It's all the ladies getting on the sedan chair, and you still want me to carry you over!”
Old Hu ran over angrily and smacked one of them on the head.
"Old Hu, I'm impressed by you…I didn't expect to hear you speak the truth in my lifetime! Brothers, it's time to let the Japanese have a taste of our flower family's cannon!”
A man who looked to be in his thirties seemed to have known Old Hu since a long time ago. He was beaming with joy as he ran over to touch the smooth body of the cannon as if he was touching a peerless beauty.
"Brothers, let's do it!"
"Let's go…"
"Kill the Japanese!"
"Let's see how I'm going to shove the cannonball into the Japanese's eyes this time!”
……
More than 200 people excitedly rolled up their sleeves and rushed over. Other than the four 180mm Krupp heavy cannons, there were also 12 80mm Krupp howitzers.
These people were enough to blow up the small Tongcheng County into ruins.
" Regiment commander, this time is different from the time at Xinqiang Town. We are now under the eyes of the Japanese. I'm worried that if the Japanese plane comes…"
Old Hu's mind was distracted. He quietly moved to Lin Feng's side and voiced his doubts.
Lin Feng smiled and said nothing. He patted Old Hu's shoulder and said,"Don't worry. Just beat up the Japanese. You don't have to worry about anything else!”
……
On the side of the road from Tongcheng County to Yinyang, Ma Tianxiang had finally arrived with the second and third echelon troops. These two troops were formed from battalions and were also Lin Feng's assets.
"Commander, didn't you say to attack Tongcheng County? Why do you want us to block the road to Yinyang?”
Feng Erniu hid in the Barley and asked suspiciously.
Ma Tianxiang frowned. He also did not understand why Lin Feng arranged the main force to ambush here. Although the Japanese's 13th Regiment had lost a regiment in Xinqiang Town, there were still two fully loaded regiments, at least 10,000 people.
Could it be that Di Zhou Li Bing, this old fellow, would retreat towards Yue Yang's side? Impossible!
"Cut the crap. Guild Leader said that we should guard this place. Also, how many times have I told you not to call me senior!”
"Yes, Commander, oh no…Battalion Commander!”Feng Erniu mumbled.
"Hehe, do you not understand why you are here?”
A burst of laughter came from behind them. The two of them quickly turned around and saw that it was Lin Feng who was smiling.
"Regiment Commander, the Japanese will definitely attack us. We should concentrate our main forces and set up defenses southeast of Tongcheng. We should rely on the two mountains to deal a head-on blow to the Japanese!”
Ma Tianxiang had been a division commander before, after all, and was still very proficient in terrain utilization and tactical arrangements.
"The Japanese will attack, but Gu Hai and his 300 men are enough. On the other hand, I'm worried about you... Do you think I want to kill the 13th division?”
Lin Feng looked at Ma Tianxiang and Feng Erniu with a mocking smile.
"Guild Leader, you mean…"
"Surround the area and attack the reinforcements!"
Lin Feng patted Ma Tianxiang's shoulder and continued,"Right now, Commander Xue and the others are already in a state of chaos. If we make a move here, the Japanese will definitely send troops back to help. We'll set up an ambush here and give them a good beating!”
"But just the 13th Regiment alone has more than 10,000 people. We only have about 1,000 people. Will the Japanese really come back to help?”Feng Erniu was puzzled.
Ma Tianxiang understood what Lin Feng was thinking. He slapped his thigh and said," Good strategy. The Japanese know that their logistics line has been cut off, so they will definitely come to their aid with light equipment. This is the perfect time to give them a hard blow!" Not only could it effectively attack the Japanese, but it could also relieve the pressure on Commander Xue!”
"Do you understand?"
Lin Feng asked with a smile.
"I understand!"
Ma Tianxiang grinned foolishly, but in the next second, he revealed a worried expression and said,"But regiment commander, once the battle starts, the pressure on Gu Hai's side in the southeast will be very great. The Japanese from the 13th division will definitely attack with all their might..."
"F * ck, now all of you know how to worry about others! [Are you the regiment commander or am I the regiment commander? I'll personally defend the area. No Japanese can get through. You can just stay here and ambush them. If you don't do well, I'll teach you a lesson!]”
Ma Tianxiang was now 200% obedient to Lin Feng. He stood at attention and said,"Yes, Guild Leader!"
……
It was past five o'clock in the morning, and the sky was already starting to brighten. The lieutenant general of the Dizhou Army stood in the command center of the 13th division in Tongcheng County, frowning as he stared at the sand table in front of him.
Not long ago, his Songdao United Army had raided Xinqiang Town, intending to cut off the retreat of the G Corps from Wu Han to Chesha. However, they had been completely surrounded, and the entire 4000-plus men of the United Army had been crushed, making him the laughing stock of the Wei Nation.
As a result, the 13th Regiment was placed at the rear to ensure the supply of supplies during the attack on C Sha.
"This is simply a great humiliation. My dignified A-grade division has actually been assigned to the rear to carry out the mission of the B-grade division!”
Dizhou Libing angrily slammed the table.
"Sir, don't worry…I think it won't be long before the general of Georgopol will transfer our 13th Regiment back to the front line!”
Ando Rikichi said calmly, looking like he had a successful career.
"Oh…why do you make such a judgment, Atani-kun?”
Ando Rikichi was the Chief of Staff of the 13th Division. He had served in the cabinet in his early years and was also of noble birth. He touched his bald head and smiled mysteriously."General Ning Ci of G Village chose to open up a path to attack C Sha in Yyang. He has clearly fallen into Xue Y's trap. The river channels near the Laodao River are densely packed, which is not conducive to large-scale marching. Furthermore, Xue Y is very good at setting up ambushes. I think…hehe.”
Ozu Ribei's eyes narrowed. He naturally understood the meaning behind Ando Rikichi's words. Although he did not wish for General Yoshiji of Gokura to be in danger, if the battle in Yeyang reached a stalemate and the 13th Regiment was transferred to the front line as the main force, then the destruction of the Songdao Regiment could be completely wiped out. The 13th Regiment could even become the hero of the Japanese Empire.
As he thought of this, a surge of warmth suddenly surged in Dizhou Libing's heart.
Boom!
