" China Government: First, apologize to the Imperial Army, hand over the officers involved in this incident, and allow the citizens of the Empire to freely enter Chahar.”
"Two, the 29th Army must withdraw from the area within ten days.”
" Three, compensation of 100,000 USD."
Looking at the announcement in his hand, Yang Xin was furious. The Japanese were really too much. They were simply too arrogant.
"Bastard, this is too much. Do you really think that I, Yang Xin, am a coward?”Yang Xin was so angry that he tore the notice into pieces and shouted loudly.
"Wang Rusong, send a telegram to Zhao Menghai and tell him that he must teach the Japanese a lesson. Surrender? Get lost!"
"Yes, sir!" Wang Rusong immediately replied.
The entire country was shocked when the electricity was released. The Kwantung Army command was furious and ordered the independent 79th Brigade of Rehe to immediately send troops to occupy Chahar.
Although the Japanese base camp had been ordered not to act rashly, the Kwantung Army headquarters, which had long been angered, did not care about the attitude of the base camp.
At this time, the Guandong Army was known as a million-strong army. It was considered a self-contained system. They no longer cared about the headquarters. Moreover, they had long wanted to expand their territory. Yang Xin just gave them an excuse.
"Order, the 78th Regiment will immediately attack. We must take down Chahar in the shortest time possible. I will have the aerial units scout.”Major General Yoo Mizukawa held the telegram in his hand and said happily.
In his opinion, a mere local militia dared to be so arrogant. It seemed that these Chinese people had forgotten the fear that the imperial army had brought them.
As for failure? That was even more impossible. The capital city of Rehe under his feet was taken down by the 128 cavalry. These Chinese troops were completely vulnerable.
"Hi." The chief of staff replied loudly.
The one in the most difficult position was Lieutenant General Zhang Zizhong of the 29th Division. On one hand, the higher-ups ordered him to retreat immediately, while on the other hand, his subordinates requested to fight.
"Sigh, where did this Yang Xin come from? He actually dares to be so bold.”Zhang Zizhong sighed helplessly.
"General, I think this kid has a backbone. If he can't make it through this hurdle, he can be recruited into our 29th Division. In a few years, this kid will be a tiger general.”Colonel Huang Weigang said with a smile.
"En, this kid has a backbone. He ordered all troops to enter the camp and not to open fire without my order.”After pondering for a moment, Zhang Zizhong ordered.
"Yes, General, but what if the Japanese take the initiative to provoke us?”Huang Weigang asked.
"Hmph, then beat them back. Do you really think the 29th Division is weak?”Zhang Zizhong said murderously.
"Yes, sir!"
On the other side, the vanguard of the 78th regiment of the Japanese army had already fought with the 1st battalion.
" Wuuu…" A grenade launcher shell smashed into the 1st Battalion's position, stirring up a pile of sand.
"Wu Mingyi, quickly get rid of that grenade launcher.”Wang Dahai, the first squad leader, spat out a mouthful of sand and shouted.
"Bang!" With a crisp sound, the Japanese grenade launcher not far away was shot down. However, the deputy next to him was about to pick up the grenade launcher when he was shot dead again.
"Nicely done. After this battle, I will treat you to a drink.”Wang Dahai praised loudly.
Wu Mingyi silently added a number on the sniper rifle. Those who were careful would notice that there were already four words on it, which meant that he had already killed twenty people.
Ever since he killed the captain of the Japanese cavalrymen, he had been chosen as a sharpshooter. At the same time, he was rewarded with a K98 sniper rifle.
At this moment, the 78th Regiment had already launched three attacks, but the enemy's firepower was too powerful. Other than leaving behind corpses on the ground, they had not obtained anything.
This made the Japanese regiment commander very angry. Since when did the Chinese army have such powerful firepower, especially the enemy's large number of Maxim heavy machine guns. They were simply devils.
Their Type 92 heavy machine guns and crooked machine guns were no match for it at all. As long as the imperial army's machine guns sounded, the enemy's heavy machine gun bullets would come crashing down like hail. They had no way to defend themselves.
In just half an hour, he had lost more than half of his First Brigade, which made his heart ache.
Seeing the sky getting dark, the commander of the Japanese regiment decided to stop the attack and wait for the arrival of the artillery fire.
There was no other way. Without artillery fire, his troops could not break through the enemy's position at all.
In the command post of the 1st Battalion, Zhao Menghai looked at the results of the battle with a smile."Not bad, not bad. We killed at least 500 Japanese today, but we only lost less than 50 people.”
The deputy battalion commander also said with a smile,"Yeah, the moment our heavy machine guns opened fire, the Japanese instantly cowered.”
"However, we can't be careless. Before we left, the regiment commander personally told us that the Japanese would definitely take revenge. Tomorrow, their artillery and planes will come, and we won't have a good time.”Zhao Menghai shook his head.
"Yeah, but the Japanese didn't expect us to have a plane too. Hahaha.”
