Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    As a professional artillery observer, Meng Xiaozhu knew what it meant to accept the order from the artillery supreme commander Zheng Yong. It meant that he and his observation team would be the first to be covered by fierce artillery fire as a benchmark for artillery bombardment.  And the correction point, the first shell must land at his coordinates.  //.//

    To put it bluntly, maybe they will be finished earlier than the Japs and be blown up by their own artillery. This is not correcting the impact point outside the shelling area. Meng Xiaozhu hesitated and replied loudly: "Report to the commander and ensure that the mission is completed."  "My observation team will definitely report the impact point of the first shelling to the artillery group accurately."

    Zheng Yong said, "Okay, okay!" He put down the phone and looked solemn. A staff officer asked, "Commander, do we have to do this?" Everyone present was a professional veteran and knew what it meant. Zheng Yong turned around and stared at  Looking at the staff member, he asked: "Do you have a better way?" Yes, is there a better way?  "Everyone lowered their heads.

    No, the location of Meng Xiaozhu's observation group was just a little to the left of the center of the planned bombardment area. In other words, when the Japanese army passed their observation point, both the left and right wings would tell the Japanese army's passing area. Meng Xiaozhu put down his walkie-talkie and spoke to the two  The assistant ordered: "You two, immediately enter the cave to hide. After I provide the direction and coordinates of the first impact point, you will immediately enter the cave to hide."

    The two assistants became anxious upon hearing this, "Team leader, that's too dangerous. Why can't we observe at the entrance of the cave?" Meng Xiaozhu didn't say anything, just smiled, "You are a novice after all, so observing at the entrance of the cave is certainly safe. What can be observed  , It¡¯s just the situation directly in front. We can¡¯t see the effect of the artillery fire on the left and right wings.¡± He didn¡¯t know the size of the entire artillery group of the ** division, but he knew that his third artillery group alone had eight artillery pieces of various calibers.  More than a hundred doors, a single salvo, is an overwhelming explosion.

    It¡¯s 4:45 a.m. on October 10th.  The 150,000 Japanese troops of the six divisions of the first attack wave poured out from the direction of Mogok under the cover of heavy fog. The first two divisions were already quite far away from Mogok.

    The battlefield was calm, and the sky was filled with heavy fog.  No target is clearly visible.  Ito's hands were soaked with cold sweat, and his heart was beating uncontrollably. If he was given another fifty minutes, the six divisions of the Imperial Army would be like divine soldiers descending from heaven.  Appearing in front of the Chinese demon Tang Qiuli's troops without warning and launching a fatal blow would change the entire situation of the Myanmar war.

    For the troops who were suddenly attacked, the heavy fog in the sky would increase the fear of the Chinese soldiers. They didn't know how many imperial soldiers would jump out of the thick fog and stab their cold bayonets.  Stabbing into their chests, this is a heavy fog that protects the Japanese Empire's Southeast Asia Expeditionary Forces.  It was Amaterasu's special favor for him, Ito Genzaburo.

    The cold voice of Chief of Staff Wu Cun broke the almost solid atmosphere.  "Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, I have a question. Since the first attack wave of the Imperial Army is progressing smoothly and has not encountered any resistance at present, it has already approached Mengmi. Why don't our second echelon within the defense line of Libao Grand Canyon?  The rhythm of connecting attacks?¡±

    "If the forces deployed by the Chinese devil Tang Qiuli on the Mengmi frontline far exceed the troops of our first attack wave, the separation at this stage will bring great danger to the imperial army, even if the commander-in-chief's first  The second echelon attacks, and the attack rhythm is blank for more than 40 minutes, which will cause all the imperial soldiers in the first attack wave to be shattered or severely damaged. I still hope that your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, can give me some advice?"

    Ito almost couldn't help turning around and slapped him with a big mouth, "I have seen idiots, but I have never seen such pig-headed people. Even if Tang Qiuli deployed a million troops on the front line of Mengmi, the six divisions of the first attack wave would be surrounded.  , is he capable of swallowing up 150,000 imperial soldiers in one hour?"

    "Before the gunshots were fired, no one knew what would happen next. They rushed all the main forces of the dispatched army into it. I am afraid that this big trap in Mogok will be worse than this thick fog. If something unexpected happens, I, Ito, will lose."  After losing all the capital, my current tactical configuration is a strategy that can advance, attack, retreat and defend. "

    Ito had no patience or disdain to elaborate on these words to Takemura. He didn't even have the mood to look at this guy. Therefore, without looking back, Ito said in the same cold tone: "Chief of Staff, regarding  It¡¯s not your turn to dictate the details of battle command, not to mention Mr. Takemura has never been to a real battlefield.¡±

    Takemura was so angry at Ito's words that he was livid. He was angry after being slapped by Ito. At this moment, the flames in his heart started to roar. He was about to lose his temper when he saw everyone in the headquarters.  The officer's unkind eyes made him realize that he was alone on Ito's territory. If the stalemate continued, there would be nothing good to gain.

    What I just said was actually forcing ItoIt was a bit overstepping the authority to invest all the troops of the second echelon. He swallowed hard and replied with burning eyes: "If the imperial army suffers heavy losses due to the supreme commander's command error,  , or lead to the failure of the Myanmar battle plan, I will truthfully report the situation to the base camp, please take care of yourself, Commander-in-Chief!¡±

    The last few words were already threatening. Ito turned back sharply, his eyes like poisonous snakes, swept across Takemura's fair and thin face, squeezed out four words from between his teeth, "It's up to you," and then directly regarded Takemura as  It was like air. Ito did his best to restrain himself without taking another look or ordering the guards to blow this pig-like idiot out.

    Just when Ito and Takemura were quarreling and quarrelsome, the Third Artillery Group of the ** Division Artillery was ready for the bombardment. Zheng Yong said succinctly into the phone: "Let's start!"

    A loud thunder-like sound suddenly sounded in this foggy early morning. The screams from far to near tore through the air and penetrated the dense fog. Suddenly, "Boom, boom, boom!" The sound of the explosion  In the mountains and fields amid thick fog, Meng Xiaozhu spat out the dirt in his mouth and grinned, "The artillery fire was accurate enough. The shell almost hit his back."

    Although the fog was heavy, the fire when the shell exploded was like lightning in the clouds, instantly lighting up the surrounding space. Meng Xiaozhu caught the flying body fragments at a glance through the artillery mirror, and he couldn't help but let out a low cry.  , "Well done!" "Artillery group, artillery group, one to one three to the left, one to eighty in bearing, covering all directions." After reporting these numbers, he put away the artillery mirror, like an agile monkey,  Get into the cave.

    If he didn't run, he would really be blown to pieces by his own artillery shells. He knew very well what would happen next after the time reported these numbers. Thousands of artillery salvos, high-speed flying metal projectiles, tearing the air, tearing  Breaking through the dense fog, came roaring with a sharp roar, and then, in the flash of light like millions of golden snakes swimming, huge and continuous explosions echoed in the dense fog, and the shock wave stirred up the dense fog.  Fog, thick fog, are countless metal fragments, whistling, rotating, cutting, and destroying.

    Ito, who was standing in the headquarters, suddenly felt a tremor under his feet, and a low muffled sound rolled in. His heart jumped suddenly due to the impact. Ito immediately grabbed the telescope. In the lens, there were streaks of light that seemed to be swimming in the clouds.  With a flash of light, Ito's heart sank. The artillery of the ** division was shelling. Did they discover their offensive intentions, or were they conducting exploratory shelling?

    Because the angle of the observation post was limited and it was impossible to see the whole battlefield clearly, Ito turned around and ordered: "Find out the situation immediately, and the attacking troops report their current situation!" The staff officer who accepted the order has not left yet.  Another staff officer hurriedly ran in and said, "Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, I have received a report from the first attack wave troops. They were violently shelled. The troops were suppressed in place and unable to continue the attack!"

    Ito turned around suddenly and almost roared: "Baga, you can't report it? Is it a local or full-line bombardment? Is it aimless bombardment, or is it a bombardment on the offensive route of our imperial army? Quickly find out  ," Ito was not confused. If it was a local area or a certain point that was bombarded, that means it was a routine artillery reconnaissance by the forward troops of the ** Division, and they had not yet discovered their own large-scale attack.

    Of course, Ito didn't quite believe in such a coincidence. However, when his own troops launched an attack, Tang Qiuli's troops conducted artillery reconnaissance. Didn't the electrified shells hit the thick fog and hit Tang Qiuli, the devil of China?  It is not so boring, and what he is most worried about is that his offensive intention will be seen through, and his opponent will answer him with countless shells.

    A few minutes later, Ito's premonition came true. It was still the same staff officer, but he was even more panicked than before. "Report to the commander-in-chief, the attacking troops reported that all the offensive routes were under heavy shelling, indiscriminately and in all directions."  Covering bombardment! The Chinese artillery shells covered all areas from Mogok to Mengmi."

    Ito suddenly shook, and the staff officer beside him hurriedly supported him. The staff officer's words showed a terrible result. The first attack wave of six divisions of the imperial army was ambushed by the artillery of Tang Qiuli's troops. They used countless guns to  The artillery enveloped 150,000 imperial soldiers in a sea of ??deathly shrapnel and fire.

    Mogok is indeed a huge trap. The artillery of the First Division must have pre-demarcated the bombardment area. However, how could Tang Qiuli know that his imperial troops were hidden in the fog, and the bombardment target was like that?  accurate?

    The plan to use the heavy fog to hide their attack attempt obviously failed. It failed irrevocably. One hundred and fifty thousand imperial soldiers became lambs to be slaughtered under a hail of bullets. With the help of God and the favor of Amaterasu,  Causing myself a heavy fog.  The only attack that can seize the initiative on the battlefield is like this??It has to end without a beginning, and Ito is unwilling to do so.
