Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Chutian took more than 20 team members to the position of the 51st Regiment of the Japanese 103rd Division. Colonel Takajiro Takajiro, the commander of the regiment, warmly received him at the regiment headquarters.

    Colonel Takataka's enthusiasm was largely due to the order of the division commander, Lieutenant General Morie Kenji, and partly to the face of Colonel Nishihashi, leader of the military field inspection team.  An imperial envoy of the military department, otherwise, as Captain Fujino, a small squadron leader, he would not be able to afford to go out of his way to welcome him at the wing headquarters.

    However, Fujino is now lucky enough to serve as Captain Nishihashi's guard. His worth immediately changes. Respect for a captain is tantamount to respecting Nishihashi. Therefore, Colonel Takataka is not because of  Chu Tian's military rank and position, but looked down upon him.

    Originally, Chu Tian was planning to bring all the team members over, but the puppy Major refused to agree to anything and insisted on leaving half of the troops to be at the disposal of Colonel Xiqiao at any time. Chu Tian could not insist on it, but  He felt very relieved about the detachment leader and the remaining team members. They were all veterans. Since joining the special operations detachment, he had spent more time dealing with the Japanese army than in his own army, and he couldn't speak Japanese at all.  .

    Colonel Takajiro Takajiro is a typical Japanese officer. He has a short and stout body and a face of perseverance and coldness. His right hand with a white glove is pressed on the handle of the command sword wrapped with gold wire, just in front of the wing headquarters.  In the open space, behind him were several staff officers and guards, waiting for Chu Tian and others to emerge from the traffic trench.

    Arriving in front of Takako, Chu Tian stood at attention and saluted, and said: "Reporting to Colonel Takako, captain of the military field inspection group guard, Captain Fujino, has been ordered to lead his troops to come to your headquarters to observe the operation. Please give me guidance, Colonel!"

    Chu Tian also knew that with his current disguised identity, he was an insignificant role among so many Japanese troops.  Therefore, he behaved respectfully but not humbly, and adhered to the etiquette of superiors and subordinates. It was just right, and he won the favor of Colonel Takako.  Be calm and polite.  There was also a hint of contempt, which was replaced by a friendly smile.

    Takataka said: "Fujino-kun, you're welcome. It's been a hard journey. Please go to the wing headquarters to rest!" After that.  He made a rare gesture of invitation, which made several other staff officers look at each other. It was the first time that His Excellency the Colonel, who always had a high level of ambition, was so polite to a young captain.

    Chutian observed carefully.  Takako's regiment headquarters is less than three kilometers away from the U.S. military position opposite. It is said that the U.S. military's 155 mm caliber howitzer is an artillery gun with a caliber of several tens of millimeters. A single shell can destroy Takako's headquarters.  Sending it to the west, according to the rules.  A regiment-level headquarters is so close to the front line. Either it doesn't take the U.S. military on the opposite side seriously, or the commander lacks basic military common sense.

    And the location of this headquarters is definitely not the best hiding place.  It was completely exposed to the firepower of the US military on the opposite side. What was even more bizarre was that there was a flagpole standing in the open space in front of the hidden part of the wing.  A coalition flag with pale lines of the sun was fluttering in the wind.  Are you afraid of the American troops on the opposite side? Do you know this is a headquarters?

    Chu Tian couldn¡¯t understand, is this Colonel Yingxiao ignorant or not afraid of death?  But judging from his performance, both possibilities were slim. Colonel Yingxiao also saw the confusion in Chu Tian's eyes, smiled conceitedly, but did not explain anything, and took the lead in walking ahead.

    At this moment, in the sky, there suddenly came a scream of metal projectiles flying at high speed, piercing the air, from far to near, pressing over head-on. A guard shouted: "The enemy is shelling, commander of the regiment, hurry up!"  Hidden!" As he said this, several guards rushed towards Yingxiao and covered him with their bodies.

    As soon as he finished speaking, more than a dozen small-caliber artillery shells exploded violently all around. The huge explosion echoed around, and the splashed mud and dust flooded the open space. A roaring artillery shell hit the flagpole.  The flag of the Sun, which had been arrogant just now, was like a piece of torn diaper, swirling and submerged in the smoke.

    Naturally, Chu Tian and his twenty-odd team members would not stand idle and be bombed. When the shells were in the air, they had already quickly found hidden objects. Therefore, these dozen or so shells did not cause any harm to Chu Tian and the others.  A little hurt.

    After the smoke and dust dispersed, Chu Tian's eyes widened. Colonel Yingxiao didn't even make any move to lie down. He just stood upright in the smoke with the command knife in his hand.  Several guards gathered around him tightly, but the staff officers got up in a miserable state, covered in mud. Two of them had blood on their bodies, and they were obviously unlucky people.

    Regarding the performance of Colonel Ying Xiao, Chu Tian could only say two words: "I'm convinced!" Are you really not afraid of death?  Compared to this little devil Colonel, the performance of myself and my team members was a bit life-saving, and there was no big day.?The imperial army officer is brave and not afraid of death, but Chu Tian will never imitate this guy like a fool and use such a stupid way to show his bravery!

    Yingxiao dusted himself off as usual. If you look closely, there was a sneer of disdain on the corner of his mouth. But when he turned around, he saw that the broken flagpole was still mostly buried in the soil. It was dirty.  The face of the Sun Army Flag suddenly changed. Annoyance was mixed with anger. In Chu Tian's view, it was as angry and sad as if his family's ancestral grave had been dug up.

    A cold light appeared in the eyes of Colonel Takataka, and he said to a staff officer who ran over: "Convey my order, the field artillery battalion of the wing, immediately lock the coordinates of the location of the US artillery position, and use the most violent artillery fire to attack those who dare to offend the Emperor of Japan."  Completely destroy the dignity of the US artillery! Also, contact the division's heavy artillery wing immediately and provide artillery support if necessary!"

    The reaction speed of the Japanese artillery was very fast. In just a few minutes, the sound of counterattacks was heard from behind the 51st Regiment's position. Groups of artillery shells flew across the sky. A part of the US military position was immediately engulfed in a burst of flames.  Amid the smoke and gunfire, the bombardment continued for thirty minutes, but strangely, there was no sound of U.S. artillery returning fire.

    It seems that the shelling just now was just a show of force by Chu Tian and the others. Chu Tian was surprised and felt useless. Could it be that this American knew that he was coming and specifically attacked him?  Fortunately, none of the team members had even a scrape of skin. If any of the team members had fallen under the gunfire from the US military, Chu Tian would have thought of committing suicide!

    Chu Tian only saw that Colonel Takako showed the so-called bravery and fearlessness of an officer of the Imperial Japanese Army, but he did not know that Takako was extremely angry in his heart at this moment.

    Since the confrontation with the U.S. military in the Calais Mountains, Takako's wing headquarters has always been located here. Not to mention the American artillery shells, not even a bullet has fallen. It's not that he underestimates the U.S. troops on the opposite side.  , multiple attacks, only their own regiment launched first, and the Americans could only defend passively. If it were not for the strict order of the division, they would not be allowed to capture US positions and launch attacks, mainly killing and wounding US soldiers in large numbers.

    Colonel Takataka believed that with the strength of his own regiment, he could break through the blocking position of the U.S. Fifth Infantry Division on the opposite side. Moreover, without much effort and casualties, Takataka had seen through the U.S. military in the past few days of fighting.  Incompetence and fear of war, hiding behind fortifications, passively being beaten, that is, the artillery fire is more powerful, but what's the use?

    No matter how good the equipment is, it still requires brave soldiers to operate it. Just yesterday afternoon, Takako saw the most incredible scene since he joined the Imperial Army. He sent two squadrons of troops to attack the enemy on the opposite side.  In the U.S. position, the imperial soldiers just started to charge. The Americans came with overwhelming artillery fire, but most of the shells actually fell on their own position, causing the U.S. soldiers to flip over and howl like ghosts!

    As a result, the casualties of the two squadrons of imperial soldiers were only more than forty. But through the telescope, he saw hundreds of corpses carried down by the US military, not including the wounded. Takataka could not believe that this would happen.  Bizarre things happened, and as a result, he despised the combat effectiveness of American soldiers to the extreme.

    Therefore, his regiment headquarters stood arrogantly in front of the US military position, and it was always safe and sound. After receiving the order from the division commander, Takataka's plan was to organize a brigade-scale attack to let Captain Fujino  Look at the combat effectiveness of the 51st Regiment. Of course, this is not the main purpose. The goal I want to achieve is to convey the brave image of myself and the 51st Regiment to the military through Captain Fujino¡¯s mouth and eyes.  go.

    But today, the uncharacteristically courageous US artillerymen dared to fight back. They boldly bombarded the regiment headquarters and blew up the regiment flag that the Imperial Army regarded as their honor and life. This made Colonel Takataka furious.  , humiliated in front of the captain of the imperial guard of the military headquarters, how can you swallow this breath?  The place must be found!  Moreover, Americans must know that they will pay a heavy price for their ignorance!

    Entering the wing headquarters, Takako ordered with murderous intent: "The wing field artillery battalion will cover the artillery fire. The first and second battalions will attack and seize the American position on the opposite side. Then, all the troops will withdraw. I will let greed lead to fear."  Dead Americans, pay the price!¡±

    Then, with a confident smile on his face, he said to Chu Tian: "Fujino-kun, just stay at the observation point of the wing headquarters and see how our Imperial Japanese Army soldiers beat up the American soldiers on the opposite side, forcing them to flee and lose money."  Tragic! My two brigades will capture the US military position within an hour and a half!"

    Chu Tian also saw that this little devil Colonel had lost face and became angry right now. Of course he hoped that the Japanese and Americans would fight to the death, so Chu Tian said: "Your Majesty Colonel, I  We are looking forward to the brave and fearless performance of our soldiers of the Imperial Japanese Army.??!  "
