Liuhe County, the headquarters of the Japanese Far Eastern Army.
A communications staff officer walked into the war room and reported: "Your Excellency, Commander, Liangjiang Town has been lost!"
"Baga!" When Yamashita Fengwen heard this, the muscles on his face twitched violently, because the fall of Liangjiang Town meant that the main force of the new regiment had broken through the blockade!
Asaburo Kobayashi waved his hand, and the communications staff officer retreated.
Then Kobayashi Asaburo said to Yamashita Tomofumi: "Commander, don't worry. Although Liangjiang Town was lost, the troops stationed in Liangjiang Town still held off the New Regiment for nearly two hours. This has bought time for the aviation corps. As long as Once the aviation regiment's bombers arrive, the new regiment can't even think of crossing the river again!"
"Yes, the Aviation Corps!" Yamashita Fengwen heard the words and immediately roared loudly, "Baga Yalu, it has been more than two hours since the order was issued. Why haven't the attack aircraft groups of the Third Aviation Regiment arrived at Liangjiang yet? town?"
After a pause, Yamashita Fengwen turned around and shouted at the leader of the Third Flight Regiment, Shiga Zhongji, behind him: "Shiga-kun, what's going on with your Third Flight Regiment? Why haven't you been able to reach Liangjiang after so long? Town? They were flying airplanes, not bullock carts. After such a long time, they should have crawled to the battlefield of Liangjiang Town, right?"
He Zhongzhi was so angry that his face was livid, but he did not dare to refute a word.
…
Two attack aircraft squadrons of the Third Flying Regiment have actually flown over Liangjiang Town. However, due to some delays in communication, the Japanese Far Eastern Front Headquarters has not received the news yet.
This attack squadron is led by ace pilot Shima Katsuzo.
Shima Shengzo was originally a Zero fighter pilot, but the Zero fighter squadron he led was severely damaged in Fengtian. This defeat directly affected his flying career. He was transferred to the 3rd Flying Regiment as the squadron leader. , and now he is leading his flying squadron to Liangjiang Town for tactical guidance.
When Shima Katsuzo's flying squadron arrived over the battlefield of Liangjiang Town, the Japanese defenders in Liangjiang Town had been completely wiped out. The troops of the first battalion of the New Regiment had even begun to clean the battlefield, and the regiment headquarters was organizing supplies and wounded people to cross the river. , Shima Shengzo could clearly see the busy scene on the dock through the port window of the attack plane.
"Baga!" Seeing this scene, Shimo Shengzo's lips immediately revealed a sinister smile.
The next moment, Shima Shengzo gave instructions to his wingman through the porthole, and pushed the control stick again, and the Type 96 dive attack aircraft under his seat immediately dived down with a fierce force.
Under the dual effects of gravity and engines, the attack aircraft's descent speed became faster and faster. The fuselage and wings had violent friction with the air, and continued to emit an extremely harsh roar. Through the porthole, Shima Shengzo could clearly see I saw that the Songhua River, which was originally like a streamer, was rapidly enlarging.
The boats and figures on the river are also rapidly enlarging.
Shima Shengsan clearly saw that the crowd on the pier had fallen into a commotion.
In an instant, the smile on the corner of Shima Shengsan's mouth became more and more ferocious. Let's make a riot, let's make the riot more intense!
The next moment, Shima Shengzo pushed the control stick slightly, aimed the dive direction at the densest crowd on the pier, and then opened the throttle to the maximum. At this time, the fuselage of the Type 96 attack aircraft even began to vibrate violently. , it really makes people worry that this thin body may fall apart at any time, but Shima Shengzo doesn't care at all.
In the blink of an eye, the attack plane was less than a hundred meters away from the ground!
This was already a very dangerous height. Only then did Shima Shengzo push the joystick fiercely and pull up the Type 96 dive attack aircraft under his seat. Then, almost at the same time as it was being pulled up, two twenty-meter missiles were fired. The five-kilogram aerial bomb had already fallen off from the belly of the attack aircraft and continued to dive downwards under the influence of inertia.
"Ooo~~" The aerial bombs continued to dive downwards at the same high speed as before. In the blink of an eye, they landed on the pier, and then exploded. Shima Katsuzo looked back during the lifting process, looking past the attack aircraft's aircraft. When you reach the tail of the plane, you can just see two huge mushroom clouds rising from the pier on the west bank of the Songhua River.
"Haha!" Seeing these two huge mushroom clouds, Shima Shengzo immediately burst into laughter.
"Nisuchi!" Shima Katsuzo laughed almost maniacally, "Shina, Nisuchi! Die!"
Shima Katsuzo's bombing was just the beginning. Immediately afterwards, attack planes swooped down one after another, launching rounds of violent bombings at the docks on the east and west sides of Liangjiang Town and even the ferries on the river. After dropping the bombs, there were another dive and strafing attack. In the blink of an eye, the entire Liangjiang Town was engulfed in raging flames.
…
On the dock, it was already a mess.
"Be careful, the Japanese bomber is swooping down again, get down quickly!"
"Xiao Tian, the packhorse of the Propaganda Department has escaped. There are important documents and a mimeograph machine on it. Go and get it back!"
"Xiao Liang, you people in the Publicity Department should stop rushing across the river and evacuate. Evacuate quickly. Don't crowd the pier anymore. This will easily lead to the shooting of the little devils!"
"The wounded, all ships give priority to ensuring that the wounded cross the river!"
"Damn it, are you crazy? Come back all, hide the boats, don't rush to cross the river now!"
"Hurry up, hide the ship quickly, the enemy's bombing is too intense, we can't cross the river like this!"
Wang Husheng stood at the pier on the west bank of Liangjiang Town, jumping to his feet in a hurry and giving loud instructions. Suddenly, another aerial bomb roared down from the sky. It landed less than 20 meters away from Wang Husheng and exploded. A high-speed sputtering fragment instantly exploded. A bloody gash was opened on Wang Husheng's cheek, and the air wave generated by the explosion knocked him to the ground.
Tian Yan, who had just brought back the pack horse from the Propaganda Office, rushed forward and dug Wang Husheng out of the mud.
"Political Commissar, are you okay? Political Commissar?!" Tian Yan was so anxious that his tone changed. If the political commissar had any shortcomings, he would be really shameless, and the regimental leader would not let him go.
Fortunately, Wang Husheng was not seriously injured, he was just knocked unconscious by the shock wave.
Tian Yan roared twice, and Wang Husheng woke up faintly. However, he was feeling sluggish. Since leaving Fengtian, Wang Husheng has been in a state of high-intensity work. He was actually very tired. He just relied on a The qi was forcibly supporting him, but now that the qi was released, the person immediately became sluggish.
Although he was extremely depressed, Wang Husheng still missed the troops crossing the river.
At that moment, Wang Husheng said: "Xiaotian, please send someone to find Staff Officer Du and ask him to evacuate the troops quickly. Don't cross the river yet."
"Xiao Yang, go find Staff Officer Du quickly and ask him to come back to direct the evacuation!" Tian Yan raised his head and shouted, "Xiao Liu, you and I will carry the political commissar to the woods over there, and then find Dean Junzi. .”
One guard flew away in an instant, and another guard hurried over. Together with Tian Yan, they carried Wang Husheng to the woods not far from the dock, and then rushed to find Director Junzi of the field hospital. Wang Husheng Tian Yan repeatedly said no need, but Tian Yan didn't listen at all, thinking that the political commissar had the final say in this matter.
…
In Liuhe, the headquarters of the Japanese Far Eastern Army.
On this occasion, Tadashi quickly walked into the war room with a saber in his hand.
Compared to just now, Shiga Tadashi's face looked much better, because his third flying group did not disappoint him. Although it arrived at Liangjiang Town a moment later than scheduled, it blocked the new group's crossing of the river as soon as it took action. Action, just now, the new group's river-crossing operation had completely stopped.
He Zhongji quickly walked to Yamashita Fengwen, paused and reported: "Your Excellency, Commander, the frontline troops report that the new regiment's river crossing operation has been completely stopped!" He paused, and then said proudly, " Under the full bombardment of my third flying regiment, it is impossible for the new regiment to cross the Songhua River!"
"Yo Xi!" Kobayashi Asaburo said happily, "Liangjiang Town is the burial place of the new group!"
"You still can't be careless!" Yamashita Fengwen waved his hand and said, "The Third Aviation Regiment must carry out uninterrupted reconnaissance of Liangjiang Town and the rivers within a hundred miles upstream and downstream at all costs to prevent the new regiment from taking advantage of our aviation forces' unpreparedness. Stowaway! In short, we must not let the main force of the new group cross the river from Liangjiang Town before dark!"
"Hai!" He Zhongzhi nodded solemnly and said, "Commander, don't worry, at least before dark, the new regiment will never be able to cross the Songhua River!"
"Yo Xi!" Yamashita Fengwen nodded happily and said, "Congratulations, please!"
"Hai!" He Tadashi nodded solemnly and said, "It is an honor for every samurai in the Empire of Japan to be able to serve the empire and be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor!"
Yamashita Fengwen nodded and asked Kobayashi Asaburo: "Kobayashi-kun, where is the 57th Division?"
Asaburo Kobayashi pointed to the sand table and said: "I just received an urgent report from the 57th Division. They have passed Antu County. It should be no problem to reach Yanji County before dark!"
"Yo Xi!" Yamashita Fengwen nodded happily and said, "What about the 38th Division?"
Asaburo Kobayashi added: "The 38th Division has passed Fusong County and is only half a day's journey from Liangjiang Town! If nothing else happens, we will definitely be able to catch up with the main force of the new regiment before dark!"
"Yo Xi!" Yamashita Fengwen nodded happily and added, "As long as the aviation regiment can block the river near Liangjiang Town and prevent the main force of the New Regiment from crossing the river before dark, the New Regiment will immediately be passive across the board! By then! Even if we barely cross the river, there will be pursuers behind us and interceptions in front, and we will be destroyed in one day or another!"
"Hai!" Asaburo Kobayashi paused and said, "From the current point of view, the destruction of the main force of the new group is inevitable. Xu Rui's wild wish to attack Wujiashan Fortress as his stronghold is just wishful thinking! Even if he takes After descending Wujiashan, the main force of his new group will not be able to reach Wujiashan Fortress!"
