Chapter 118: Crossing the Bright Sword
Taizhuo Town, Japanese Army Command Headquarters.
Yoshika Ryosuke, Nakajima Sadao and several other division commanders and chiefs of staff evacuated here in a hurry.
Standing outside the headquarters, watching groups of Imperial Army soldiers withdrawing one after another with low morale, Yoshika Ryosuke looked very ugly. He asked the Chief of Staff behind him in a deep voice: "Chief of Staff, how are the losses of the troops this time?"
Taku Toshio also said with a heavy face: "I have just received the news that the commander of the 13th Division, General Ogi Ryū, and the chief of staff, Colonel Saburo Teden, and other key officers have all died for the empire.
In addition, the 11th Division that attacked Qixia Mountain was also heavily bombarded by Chinese naval gunfire and suffered heavy casualties.
According to preliminary statistics, the four main divisions of the Imperial Army will lose at least half of their strength."
After hearing this, Yoshika Ryosuke roared very angrily: "Bagya Road, damn it! Damn Zhu Ziming!"
"Immediately order all land-based and sea-based aviation forces to dispatch and launch indiscriminate air strikes and bombings on Nanjing and its surrounding areas! I will raze the city of Nanjing to the ground!"
As a result, the Japanese army in Central China dispatched more than 200 fighter jets and bombers and began to carry out air raids and bombings on Nanjing.
Fortunately, the independent brigade now has seven air defense battalions and a joint land and sea air defense fire network composed of six cruisers.
The Japanese air raids and bombings were intercepted by the independent brigade air defense forces. The two sides launched an unprecedented fierce battle, and both the offensive and defensive sides suffered heavy casualties.
However, the Japanese ground attack was temporarily halted due to insufficient troops and heavy losses.
Xu Wen also took this opportunity and spent another 10 million points to exchange for a large number of military trucks and engineering vehicles for Nanjing City, and built more than ten steel pontoon bridges on the Yangtze River to assist the Nanjing Garrison Headquarters in evacuating the people.
Transfer materials.
With the help of Xu Wenhe's system, evacuation and evacuation operations have become much smoother and faster.
However, this situation did not last long. Three days later, the Japanese army added the 101st Division, as well as the replenished 3rd, 6th, and 114th Divisions, expanding its strength outside Nanjing to eight divisions.
Regiment, a heavy artillery brigade.
At the same time, the Japanese once again deployed troops in their homeland, as well as the North China and Northeast Fronts, to replenish the losses of the 9th, 11th, 13th, and 18th Divisions.
At that time, Japan was in its heyday, and its war mobilization capabilities were still terrifying.
In less than a week, more than 100,000 additional land troops, a naval fleet, and hundreds of land-based and sea-based aviation units were dispatched to the Nanjing area.
This greatly enhanced the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army. In the past week, Yoshika Ryosuke, who had received reinforcements from four divisions, once again commanded the army to attack Nanjing.
Xu Wen and Zhou Weiguo commanded the independent brigade, combined with other national armies, and launched a fierce and bloody battle with the Japanese army.
Relying on the powerful firepower of hundreds of tanks and armored vehicles, as well as the powerful firepower support of the cruiser gun group, the Japanese troops were firmly kept out of Nanjing.
As the Japanese army sent an additional 100,000 land troops, hundreds of fighter planes, and a naval fleet, the gap in strength between the enemy and ourselves further widened.
However, fortunately, in the past week, Commander Tang commanded the garrison in the city and had almost evacuated the people and important supplies in the city.
At this time, the time has come to 11:59 pm on December 12, which is only one minute away from the 13th day in history when Nanjing fell.
When it was just past midnight, the system immediately issued a prompt: "It has been detected that the host has completed the task of holding on to Nanjing for twenty days. Congratulations on receiving a 50 million point reward. The total number of host points is now 103,000."
In the past week, Xu Wen commanded his troops to fight more than a dozen bloody battles with hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops, so the points he earned had already exceeded 50 million.
Now that I have completed the task and received a reward of 50 million, my points have suddenly exceeded the 100 million mark.
However, before Xu Wen had time to be happy, the system prompted again: "Host, since the historical time has passed since the fall of Nanjing, you can go and show your sword."
"Then what will happen here after I leave?" Xu Wen suddenly felt a little reluctant.
"You don't have to worry about this. The weapons and equipment you left behind will be taken away by Zhou Weiguo and other national army generals who can take them away. If they can't be taken away, they will destroy them on the spot. They will definitely not leave them to the Japanese."
The system said: "Although you failed to change history in this Battle of Nanjing, you also caused huge losses to the Japanese army and severely damaged the Japanese army in Central China.
It has greatly consumed their war potential, which is very beneficial to the overall situation of the subsequent war of resistance, so there is no need to worry too much."
"Well, that makes sense." Xu Wen nodded happily and said: "Then help me turn on the time-travel function. I will show my sword in the target world. I want to go to Li Yunlong to brag and drink! Marching and fighting every day during this period is so damn tiring!"
During this period, Xu Wen was really tired after being busy marching and fighting all day long.
The system asked: "Aren't you going to say goodbye to Zhou Weiguo and the others?"
"No need, I have to say goodbye after a long journey. Besides, I don't belong to this world. It's good to come quietly and leave quietly!" Xu Wen understood that with the talents of Zhou Weiguo and Chen Zhenglun, even if he was gone, they would
Those who properly take over the entire independent brigade will naturally retreat on their own after all ammunition and equipment are used up.
As the saying goes, if you are not in your position, you will not seek to govern. If you are about to leave, don't worry about it.
The system said: "Okay, host, please go to a place where no one is around, and I will activate the time travel function for you."
At exactly this time, the Japanese heavy artillery brigade and artillery unit opened fire on the national defense line again.
The artillery shells came roaring with a piercing scream, and struck hard on the national army positions, exploding violently, including the hilltop where Xu Wen was.
Xu Wen excused himself to relieve himself, turned around and left the headquarters, arriving at a deserted place.
The system asked: "Do you want to enable the time-travel function?"
"Yes!" Xu Wen nodded happily, and looked back in the direction of the headquarters, thinking: "Goodbye, Weiguo."
The system immediately said: "Ding dong, the host has spent 100 million points and successfully enabled the time-travel function. The target is the sword world. Now the time-travel begins..."
Following the system prompt, Xu Wen felt a white light flash in front of his eyes, and his whole body suddenly lost his will.
The next second, a white light shot into the sky, and a cannonball landed exactly where Xu Wen was, with a loud bang that turned the mountain top into a sea of flames.
That night, a piece of extremely unexpected and sad news for Zhou Weiguo and others was sent back to the headquarters. Brigadier Zhu Ziming was accidentally hit by Japanese artillery fire. His body was not found, and he died a heroic death for his country!
When Xu Wen regained his will again and opened his eyes, he found himself on a battlefield filled with gunpowder smoke. The sky was now gray, and the choking gunpowder smoke seemed to be mixed with a disgusting smell of blood.
.
Xu Wen found himself lying down, so he got up instinctively.
As he stood up, he completely saw the scene around him.
The place where he was sitting turned out to be a trench that was narrow at the top and wide at the bottom. Not far from him, there was a small black artillery piece. Xu Wen recognized it as a 60mm Japanese mortar.
Because he had seen it more than once in the snow leopard world.
At this time, a deep voice came from my ear: "Zhuzi, are you alive?"
"Pillar? Damn, what's going on?" Xu Wen raised his head and looked at the sound in confusion, only to see a strange guy in a gray military uniform squatting in front of him and looking at him with a concerned look on his face.
At this moment, the system responded to Xu Wen: "Congratulations to the host for successfully traveling to the world of Liangjian. The place you are currently at is Cangyun Ridge. Your current identity is Wang Chengzhu, an artilleryman of the New Regiment of the Eighth Route Army. Currently, the New Regiment is captured by Sakata
The coalition was besieged on the hilltop..."
"I'm a fool! He was dressed as Wang Chengzhu! He was the unlucky boy who killed the Bantian Regiment Headquarters with two cannons, then stood up and wandered happily, only to be beaten to death by Japanese machine gun fire." Xu Wen was shocked again.
Happy again.
At the same time, he secretly said: "This time I must grow up in a wretched way. I will make sure that the excitement of the Northern Shanxi Iron Triangle is up!"
The system teased: "Host, do you want to drink sweet potatoes? If you want, just have a good sex..."
"Damn it, you've learned a lot about the system! But I'm sure I'll drink the sweet potato roast this time!" While talking to the system, Xu Wen also absorbed Wang Chengzhu's original memory, so he recognized the soldier in front of him as the regiment.
Hu Zi, the guard of Chang Li Yunlong.
Huzi was still looking at him with concern, so Xu Wen ended the conversation with the system, shook his head at him and said: "I'm fine, I was just stunned by the Japanese cannonball!"
"That's good!" Seeing Wang Chengzhu answer him, Huzi felt relieved, patted Xu Wen's shoulder and said: "You are really lucky, even the Japanese cannonballs can't kill you."
Xu Wen grinned and asked, "By the way, what do you want from me?"
"It's the captain calling you." Huzi put away his smile, his face became a little solemn and said: "Maybe we are going to attack!"
Chapter completed!
