Chapter 457 We Have No Choice This Time
Yamaguchi took the message. After reading it carefully, he stood up with a slight smile on his face. "Let the troops prepare for the attack."
Attack...
Shangjing's fingers trembled as he picked up the command pole. "Now?"
Have you forgotten that the enemy's deployment on the opposite side and their scattered anti-aircraft machine guns are probably intended to attack your side? If you attack at this moment, how many lives will be lost?
One thousand or two thousand, or maybe more.
"Yes, attack." Yamaguchi handed the message to Kamii; "You will understand after reading this.
Four aviation squadrons launched continuous bombings, and this time, his independent regiment was doomed.
Ueda Kanekichi recalled the telegram sent to him by the Chief of Staff and felt full of confidence.
Two days ago, the staff came up with a plan. Since it was impossible to blow up their transport vehicles and bridges, there was only one way to do it. After the 74th Army Independent Regiment entered the position, they would gather superior air force and bomb it fiercely, using steel to destroy this force.
As long as it is the location of the independent regiment, they will bomb it several times, and it just so happens that this time they are located in the Yamaguchi Brigade.
The Yamaguchi Brigade was famous for its bayonet fighting. Taking advantage of the bombing, they quickly rushed up to them and fought with bayonets, thus annihilating them.
"Have the air forces been dispatched?" Ueda Kanekichi put down the cigarette in his hand and turned to ask the adjutant standing next to him.
The adjutant nodded. "The first echelon of the aviation force was dispatched half an hour ago, and the second echelon also set off ten minutes ago."
"Okay." Ueda Kanekichi put out his cigarette in the ashtray and sneered twice; "This time, I will make sure that his independent regiment will not be able to escape even if they have wings."
"General, this is a brilliant plan. His independent regiment probably never dreamed that our ground forces were just finishing off the enemy. The ones who really attacked them were actually our aviation forces."
"Don't be careless. Have the air force prepare another squadron. Also, notify the air force that I want to personally fly to the battlefield to witness the destruction of this unit. At the same time, have the reporters follow me. If we can take them down, we will have the commanding heights."
"Hi." The adjutant replied and turned to leave. After Ueda Kanekichi and the other adjutants left, his eyes fell on the location marked with the Independent Regiment. The three bright words "Independent Regiment" made him more and more annoyed. He used a pen to erase them and said, "It's time to erase you."
Boom… Boom… Boom… Boom…
Tutu... Tutu...
Batch after batch of bombers bombed the independent regiment's position so hard that it was impossible to see the situation clearly from a distance of ten meters.
"Are they planning to kill us with bombers?" Zhou Weiguo arrived at the bunker and found that he could not observe the situation outside. He turned to the map and circled the location of the independent regiment with a pencil.
Ichiro Kuroki nodded slightly. "It's very likely. I asked the friendly forces on both sides not long ago, and they didn't encounter any air raids by the aviation forces."
"It seems that the opponent's goal this time is very clear. They want to use air force to destroy us." Sano Tadayoshi also made his own judgment.
Using air force to destroy a regiment was unheard of since the founding of the empire. It seemed that the Independent Regiment cast too big a shadow on them.
Otherwise, the other party would not do this.
"This is the nth wave?" Zhou Weiguo asked with narrowed eyes.
"It's the second wave." Asaka Hiderei was calculating.
There can’t be a second wave later.
"Awen." Xiao Ya came over and handed him a telegram. "This is from my fourth brother. Four air squadrons have been dispatched from Wuhan, and another is gathering."
"Damn it." Zhou Weiguo threw the message on the map; "How despicable."
"This is bullying us because we don't have an air force." Ono looked up at the gray sky with a look of despair.
He swore that if he had known that the Independent Regiment was so hated, he would definitely treat the bodies of the Japanese soldiers gently. At least he would give them some respect and not strip them down to their underpants.
"Lao Zhou, we won't die..."
"Shut your stinky mouth." Asaka Hiderei grabbed the candy and threw it at Ono.
Damn it, this guy is just asking for trouble. At this time, why should he die?
"If you keep talking nonsense, I'll throw him to the front line." Minamizō Akiko also threatened, gritting her teeth.
Ono quickly hid behind Xiao Ya. Although Xiao Ya would sometimes attack him, it was safest to be by her side if something really happened.
"Takeshita, stop smoking and tell me your analysis. After all, you are an outstanding student of the NCO Academy."
Takeshita Shun glanced at Zhou Weiguo and said, "I have never learned how to fight in my own regiment. What I learned was the squadron combat that you, the damned one, tricked me into doing."
What can he say about the mismatch between his major and his job? He just opens his mouth and says that the thousands of people in the independent regiment will probably let him fall into the trap.
At this time, his best decision was to keep silent.
Miyamoto Shigeru blinked beside him, looked at Takeshita Shun, and then his eyes fell on Zhou Weiguo; "Captain, I do have an analysis."
"Speak freely." Zhou Weiguo grabbed the cigarette on the table and threw it over.
Miyamoto took the cigarette, lit it, and then came to the map; "The enemy is targeting our independent regiment, and opposite us is the Yamaguchi Brigade, which is famous for bayonet fighting. I think they will definitely attack us after the air force is finished."
"What do you mean?" Zhou Weiguo had a flash of inspiration, but he didn't grasp the key point.
Miyamoto pointed at the map. "I don't know much about the air force, but my friend is in it. It's impossible for the air force to come one after another. There must be a time interval in between. If we can take advantage of this gap and fight with them, their air force will be useless."
"The bayonet saw blood." Fang Shengli swallowed his saliva. To be honest, he felt a little guilty about this. No, not only he felt guilty, but everyone present felt guilty. Bayonet fighting was not the strong point of the independent regiment.
I learned it, but it's not very useful.
"Xiu Ling, have you estimated how long it took them to connect?" Zhou Weiguo turned his head and asked Zhao Xiang Xiu Ling. As for the others, they were doing other things just now, and probably didn't pay attention to this matter.
The corner of Fang Shengli's mouth trembled. Lao Zhou asked this, which meant that he probably had been convinced by Shigeru Miyamoto.
"Are we really going to fight them to the death?" Fang Shengli came up to him and asked. Seeing Zhou Weiguo taking out a cigarette and lighting it, he said, "If we fight to the death, we won't have any advantage. I'm afraid the 33rd Combat Team won't be able to perform well."
It's easy for others to pick on you if you use your skills.
Zhou Weiguo sighed, looked into the distance, lit a cigarette, squinted his eyes for a long time and said, "We have no choice this time."
