Looking at this 70-ton metal lump, Li Hu couldn't help but be shocked!
Too mighty!
It was a steel monster!
"Other than the artillery, leave a battalion to guard the artillery position. Everyone else, follow me to Jinzhou City!”Li Hu said.
"Yes, Guild Leader!"
Some of the 4,000 clone soldiers got into trucks, while others walked directly toward Jin Zhou City, which was 8 kilometers away.
At the same time, 10 Tigerking tanks were also heading towards Jin City as the vanguard.
They were discovered by the Japanese patrol team when they were five kilometers away from Jinzhou City. After all, the engine of the Tiger King tank and the truck made a lot of noise.
After all, this place was very close to Jinzhou City, and there were quite a number of ghost scouts.
……
It was past four in the afternoon.
Jinzhou City, the devil's headquarters.
When Matsumoto Kotaro heard his subordinates report that they had found traces of the enemy five kilometers outside the city, he was completely shocked!
"What is it? How many people? How are the weapons?" Kotaro Matsumoto quickly asked.
"It's about a brigade's strength. The troops look well-equipped, and there are also ten heavy tanks leading the way!”
"A brigade?"
" And ten heavy tanks?" When Matsumoto Kotaro heard this news, he felt terrible!
A brigade's strength was more than four thousand men!
How many people did he have in the city now?
There was only a single infantry battalion of 800 people, and with the other miscellaneous forces, there were only slightly more than 1,000 people. Even with the addition of the 1,000-strong Imperial Association Army, there were only 2,000 of them!
The enemy was coming at them menacingly!
"There's a high chance that this enemy exploration team wiped out two of our teams. Even if they're not, they're definitely a team.”Kotaro Matsumoto already had a guess.
"Send a telegram to the regiment commander immediately!" He knew that the enemy had a brigade in Manchuria. He had to report this information to the higher-ups, and he also needed help!
……
Shen Yang City.
8th division headquarters.
"Nani? An exploration team appeared outside Jinzhou City?”Kudo Ichiro frowned when he heard the news. He was about to send troops to the Chen Family Village to see what was going on, but he did not expect to hear such shocking news!
A brigade of enemy soldiers!
In the past four to five years, it had not appeared in Manchuria!
However, he knew that this was not the time to study where the enemy had come from. He immediately ordered,"Send two regiments and a team of cannons to support Jinzhou!”Kudo Ichiro immediately gave the order.
His 8th division had a total of 4 infantry regiments! External processing, cavalry, artillery, Lu each a regiment, a total of 8 regiments.
The previous regiment was stationed in Jinzhou City, which was Matsumoto Kotaro's regiment.
Shenyang City was the other three infantry regiments and four auxiliary regiments.
Now that they had sent out two infantry regiments and four other regiments, it could be said that they had sent over 70% of their forces.
About 11,000 troops went to support Jinzhou.
The reason why Kudo Ichiro had sent so many troops over was mainly because the enemy of Chentun had wiped out two infantry battalions of Matsumoto Kotaro and one squadron of Chentun.
To be honest, he had never encountered such a level of combat power in his long time in Manchuria!
This also made him, who was already cautious, feel that the enemy's combat strength might be unprecedentedly strong!
That was why he sent so many troops to support and check on the situation!
The sudden appearance of a brigade of enemies made him wary!
At the same time, he reported the news to the Guan Dong Army headquarters.
……
5 PM.
Rumble…
The sound of the Tiger King tank's powerful engine reached the top of Jinzhou City.
At this time, Kotaro Matsumoto was already standing on the city wall of Jinzhou, quietly waiting for the arrival of the enemy!
"Hiss…What kind of tank is this? Why haven't I seen it before!" When he saw the ten steel monster Tiger King tanks two kilometers away, he was so shocked that he couldn't speak!
He had never seen such a huge tank in his life!
"It's a heavy tank! I've never seen a heavy tank before!”Kotaro Matsumoto was a little frightened. Their Empire's tanks were like babies in front of these tanks!
If their Empire's tanks encountered such tanks, they probably wouldn't even have the chance to fight back!
"Commander, we don't know if our anti-tank cannons will work on such heavy tanks!”Staff officer Yoshizawa-kun's face turned pale.
Their current anti-tank cannon was the newly developed Type 94 37mm anti-tank cannon.
Although they had never tried it before, they felt that their anti-tank cannons were probably useless against such heavy tanks!
"Hmph, they only have 10 tanks. Don't give in without fighting. As long as they don't break through our walls, they won't be able to do anything to us! When our reinforcements arrive, we'll attack them from both sides. They won't be able to escape even if they have wings!”Kotaro Matsumoto was indeed the regiment commander. He was still very calm.
"Commander, you are right. I was the one who lost my composure.”Yoshizawa-kun's face flushed red.
Just as they were talking, the sound of artillery shells suddenly came from the sky!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
There were only the sounds of four or five artillery shells breaking through the air.
Kotaro Matsumoto knew that this was the enemy's trial firing! Find a position!
"Lie down!"
One by one, the Japanese soldiers quickly lay down.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Out of the five cannonballs, only one hit the city. The other four either missed or couldn't reach the city.
After the artillery shell, Kotaro Matsumoto looked back into the city and saw a huge crater in the ground!
His pupils constricted.”
"Everyone, hide well. The enemy has heavy artillery! Get the artillery squadron ready to fight back! Baka, damn it!" Kotaro Matsumoto cursed in his heart.
The enemy had heavy artillery!
It seemed that this group of enemies in front of him must be the same group of enemies who had killed two of his battalions!
Half a minute later.
Li Hu's trial firing was observed and corrected by the people in front. Finally, the first round of salvo began!
