Netizen Upload Chapter 66: Fighting the Philippines (6)
.Eighty kilometers south of San Jose.
Although it was just the afternoon when the earth was the most prosperous in the day, the sky was gloomy. The air pressure covering the iron stream on the road was so low that it could silence a man five feet tall.
This is not sensational. It should be noted that the heavy sense of depression and shock that thousands of iron-blooded soldiers with stern faces and heads down can produce is really something that ordinary people can withstand!
The brothers of the New One 70 Master were in a bad mood, but there was definitely a reason to hold it in!
The other brother divisions of the same army all fought against San Jose with joy, but they didn't have their share! It would be fine if they were surrounded by other Japanese troops in San Jose, and they would just be considered as our men to carry forward their style! But this time they missed the past seven years. Every Chinese with blood wanted to eat their flesh. Let's talk about the beast army that was sleeping with their skin. After the sixth division was surrounded at the end of last month, there was another one in the 170s division, and they didn't want to boast about it in front of others in the future. I was the revenge of my fellow citizens who died in Nanjing! That way, they went south to restrain them.
The bastard who harassed the main force of the Japanese army came to order. If someone asks in the future: You are also from the 48th Army, then you are there when you fight the 6th Division. They have to answer: Our division did not participate in that battle. We went to fight Quezon with the Japanese and went to fight Malani. What the hell is this! The unspeakable depression also ruled Ma Siyuan's thinking. He even envied Xing Yu, who was fighting for the troops, was born: Just destroy the troops first like Old Xing, and how could he get a reserve team!"
"Boom... rumbling, boom... rumbling." The sound of cannons from the legend in front not only stopped the huge convoy immediately, but also caused the team to be depressed to make a big turn of emotions in an instant. Whether it was hurriedly shouting, pushing the officers of his subordinates, or the soldiers who had just come back from half-awake, everyone's eyes were filled with a strong sense of fighting.
"Teacher! Commander-in-Chief Hojo calls to report. Their vanguard of the Peace Army was raided by Japanese artillery ten kilometers ahead!" A young lieutenant, with a terrifying head, ran to the small jeep on which Ma Siyuan reported loudly.
Ma Siyuan, who had judged from the caliber of the roaring artillery of the Peace Army, had a large number of Japanese troops blocking the road, shouted with great enthusiasm: "The entire division is divided into two routes, and I will take a detour and encircle it!"
When the 170th Division and the Japanese Heihe Army were lying under the 15th Brigade of the Japanese Army, the 6th Division of the Japanese Army wanted to divide the main force into multiple groups to carry out drilling attacks to break through the encirclement, which was also shattered by the Japanese Philippine Front Command!
The Central Plains did not know that the risk of Lieutenant General Kanda was extremely high, but it was actually the last bit of vitality of the Sixth Division. It could be strategically considered (if the Sixth Division was destroyed too quickly or partially annihilated and broke through, it would inevitably lead to freeing up four Chinese divisions to attack the Japanese army's security corridor in central Luzon!). The Central Plains had to reject Kanda's request.
The moment he received the order to defend himself, Kanda's face was ashes!
Kanda does not lack the courage to fight to the death. But the problem is that the Sixth Division is almost gone for the strength to fight the trapped beasts.
The Sixth Division, which has been in power for decades, has been in a state of pain for more than half a month. It has been bombarded for more than 20 days and blocked the iron wall. Not only has the Sixth Division lost a large number of troops. It is even more terrifying that the logistics personnel have insufficient estimates of the US Air Force bombing. When the Sixth Division set out from Manila, most of the large amount of grain stored in stocks was burned by napalm bombs. San Jose is just a small town with less than 10,000 residents. It is obviously unrealistic to rely on robbing grain on the spot to feed the belly of a division.
In fact, since the sixth month, Kanda has ordered the daily ration of soldiers to be reduced to 300 grams, and in recent days it has been less than 200 grams. What Kanda cannot understand most is that his troops have fluctuated so quickly. In fact, this is not surprising. The Japanese army has been increasing day by day in recent years. The main combat troops like the Sixth Division, which often take the lead in battle and chew bones, have a speed of replenishment and change of combat personnel a little faster than their peers. To put it bluntly! Although the Sixth Division today still treats the people in the occupied areas, its real combat power is
It is no longer the same as the Kumamoto Division, which was rampant in the early stages of the Sino-Japanese War. Moreover, the increasingly mixed personnel and the steady decline in the quality of the troops gradually weakened the fighting will, obedience, discipline and confidence in the victory of this war. Before, although the Sixth Division had minor setbacks, it was still in good times, so there was no big problem. However, in this desperate situation, these hidden dangers that cannot be seen or touched on weekdays suddenly emerged. While making General Kanda busy, the Sixth Division became increasingly internal and external.
It may sound a bit panicked. At this moment, Kanda was very grateful to Cheng Jiaji. If the other party did not sentence all the officers and soldiers of the 6th Division to death, but instead surrounded and cracked down like the Yongchuan Detachment, or treated differently by not participating in the Nanjing Massacre. Kanda really didn't have much confidence in whether he could always control the troops.
It is precisely because of this that the new and old generals of the Beast Corps have been united around Kanda in order to find some compensation for their soon-to-be-dead lives in the Chinese army.
Unfortunately, Kanda and his subordinates were terrible.
The deep hatred for the Beast Division was not only not inferior to Cheng Jiaji's rationality, but instead vowed to kill all the evil beast soldiers without missing a single one. He was much more cautious in his actions than before. It was also one of the key points that Cheng Jiaji pursued. Cheng Jiaji knew very well that no matter how weak the Sixth Division was, it was an army with a determination to die, and he would not be taken lightly at all.
Of course, being cautious and being safe does not mean shrinking your hands and feet, and you should not be confused with cowardice!
The New 100th Division, the New 188th Division and the New 212th Division used the following three steps. The first step is to concentrate the land and air firepower, and the firepower is chaotic in front of the Japanese army. The second step is to use the thick skin and thick flesh to make the Japanese army's active weapons basically powerless, accompanied by the infantry artillery fire, forcibly separate part of the Japanese army from the main force; the third step is to dispatch all armored vehicles. With the cooperation of assault infantry and flamethrowers, the Japanese army was squeezed into a group and crushed back and forth with the chariots until they were crushed into meat paste!
The Japanese army was unable to resist head-on and had to launch a suicide counterattack. However, most of the Japanese soldiers rushed up with explosives, they were beaten into funnels before they approached the target. They were burned into roasted pigs. Although they occasionally broke the lucky ones' tracks of the Chinese chariot. But that was finally a drop in the bucket and was not in the way of the war!
It can be said that the Japanese army was defeated at the beginning of the official battle. In just half an afternoon, the remnants of the Japanese Sixth Division lost one-sixth of its troops.
After being unable to support Kanda, he ditched several squadrons with no power, his defense area was greatly reduced. The Chinese army advanced step by step and quickly stuck it again. Overnight, there were three such people!
Before dawn, the Japanese army retreated into the city of San Jose.
Since the environment has changed, the few houses left in the city have become the primary target of the Chinese army. In Wen Songyuan's words, this place is not Chinese anyway, and it is not a pity to erase it from the map!
With artificially creating a wide terrain, the Chinese army picked up the tactics outside the city again. The Japanese army's density increased sharply, which helped the Chinese army kill and injured their land more effectively, and also resulted in a much more reserved force in the Japanese army.
After eating several times, the Japanese army was hit by the ground with too deep insertion, the Chinese army's ground fighting style became a simple tasting, focusing on killing and not occupying land (except for key points.).
He opened his eyes and watched one squadron of his own troops disappear. Kanda, who could not use force, could only pray in his heart that the general attack of the Chinese army would arrive soon. In that case, the Sixth Division might have a chance to give the enemy a heavy blow!
Lieutenant General Kanda, who was in a panic, didn't know that what he was facing now was a general attack. Or, Cheng Jiaji never thought about fighting in close combat with the Sixth Division from beginning to end, and the opportunity to fight bayonets was to use fragmentary slaughter to drive the Japanese crazy, forcing them to jump out and seek death! Of course, it would be best to cut the Sixth Division to death directly!
But as soon as the battle started, Cheng Jiaji, who was already under the control of Zhizhu, also had his own troubles!
"...To sum up, a moderate existence that is friendly to the civilized world and developed economy will be very beneficial to the future world and future peace in Asia. Not only should we start from now on, we should prevent the situation where China is dominant in post-war Asia, but we should also see that one-seventh of the world's war-torn China has developed the habit of revenge by force, which is a very dangerous thing for the entire civilized world!" Qin Dongsheng listened to Cheng Jiaji's righteous thoughts. The Times in London published an editorial titled "Watching China".
Cheng Jiaji sneered disdainfully. The statement that the British, who had never forgotten the Asian hegemony in their hands, exposed the extreme weakness of the Saxons. If it weren't for fear that China would settle old accounts with the gentlemen who made their fortune by drug trafficking, drug manufacturing, trading people, and robbing the country, why should they jump out and speak for Japan, which is still its enemy country when the war is still in progress.
"...In addition to being shocked, we should also give a fuller understanding of General Cheng and his colleagues' extreme behavior. Think about what this Japanese army did in Nanjing, the capital of China! Think about how much harm Japan caused to the American people in the early days of the Pacific War!..." This article is a commentary article by the New York Times.
Cheng Jiaji smiled again, this time he had a happy smile. Cheng Jiaji believed that he could still grasp the psychology of the American people. Although these descendants of European immigrants who had a strong sense of superiority were willing to show their sense of fraternity and justice at the right time. However, this premise of compassion for the world is not a slight conflict with their own interests. Not to mention that the American people were keen on Japan at this time, it was because the Chinese army could save the lives of American youth.
The article is enough for most Americans to decide their position. Of course, this also requires appropriate guidance and publicity. For example, in the newspaper, take the Sixth Division as an example, and calculate carefully how many people can be injured and how many people can be killed if the US military comes to wipe them out. For example, disclose the secrets of tens of thousands of captured American soldiers falling to the guns of the Japanese who escorted them in the Bataan Death March. From the actual effect, the work of the Chinese Americans is still very good!
The US government has long announced that it will not express its opinion on this matter! Admiral Doug, who still needs the Forty-Eighth Army to do a lot of things for him, accepted the words "I personally think that this is a personal grudge between our allies and our enemies!" on this matter, and it was revealed that the US military's Ming's attitude of being tolerant to avoid it.
Cheng Jiaji also knew that if there weren't Americans who were in the forefront and thought they were the ones in the hands of the Supreme Government who were eating in the United States, this time they would not say anything heavily or put it down gently. Today, Cheng Jiaji would not have been so naive that he thought he was a serious punishment, so he could really take what he had done this time just to be a lie. If he said it seriously, he could rise to autocracy and kill the tyrant. He looked at my sins and cancelled the account. Needless to say, the Supreme Government had kept the account for Cheng Jiaji.
But Cheng Jiaji has no regrets about this!
The most surprising thing about Cheng Jiaji was the critical reports and comments made by some domestic non-official media, well-known social figures, and senators of the State Government on his feat. Although these accusations are different, there is only one core, that is, the 48th Army's actions violate the way of benevolence and forgiveness this time, turning people into beasts, and pulling the Chinese people who understand etiquette and shame to deviate from the inherent moral bottom line. According to this argument, Cheng Jiaji naturally became the eternal sinner of the Chinese nation!
Faced with these accusations, Cheng Jiaji couldn't raise any anger. He was in his heart and was only sad and heartbroken and a heavy sense of powerlessness: Is it the traditional virtue of the Chinese nation to be bullied, trampled, and to repay grudges with shame with virtue?
Fortunately, Cheng Jiaji has also learned from various channels that ordinary people in China are going to be full of evil for the Sixth Division, and cheering and cheering are the majority, which makes him feel a little relieved!
