Chapter 263 There are spies in the city
Teng County 122nd Division Headquarters.
Liang Shanhao was checking a military map in the command room.
At this time, a communications soldier hurriedly ran in.
After giving a military salute to Liang Shanhao, the communications soldier shouted: "Reporting to the commander's seat, a large number of Japanese have been discovered on the Jiehe front line!"
His eyes suddenly froze, and Liang Shanhao shouted: "Approximately how many troops there are!"
The signal soldier shouted in response: "A squadron!"
The chief of staff on the side shouted: "Master, it seems that although the 10th Regiment was attacked by us, their combat power has not been reduced at all!"
Without a trace of emotion on his face, Liang Shanhao shouted: "The 10th Regiment is known as the Ghost Chichai Regiment and has always been the elite of the 10th Division. It is expected that they will attack us so soon!"
After a pause, Liang Shanhao shouted: "Signal Corps, order all troops in the Jiehe River to guard and defend to the death, and pay attention to preserving their effective forces! Don't let the little Japs cross the Jiehe River defense line even half a step!"
Raising his head towards Liangshan Haoyi, the communications soldier raised his voice and responded: "Yes!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of bomber engines could be heard in the sky.
The sirens in the county town rang.
His face suddenly darkened, and the chief of staff shouted: "Commander, the Japanese are launching an air attack! Hurry up and hide in the basement!"
Liang Shanhao shouted: "Why are you panicking?"
An aerial bomb exploded outside the command room door.
The two guards outside the door were blown to the ground.
The chief of staff pinned Liang Shanhao down and shouted: "Master, be careful!"
With a loud noise, the dust on the roof fell down and hit the chief of staff.
Shaking the dust off his hat, the chief of staff shouted: "Master, hide quickly! The Japanese seem to know the specific location of our division headquarters!"
Liang Shanhao cursed: "Dear me, there must be spies in our county!"
The chief of staff shouted: "Quick, the protection team goes into the basement!"
Three or five soldiers from the security company protected Liang Shanhao as he entered the basement.
Just as the door to the basement was closed again, a loud bang was heard, and three aerial bombs fell towards the command post again.
Rumble, rumble!
In a flash of lightning, most of the command room was destroyed.
Hearing the explosion on the top floor, the chief of staff suddenly gasped: "You damn little devil, are you targeting our 122nd Division headquarters?"
With a solemn look on his face, Liang Shanhao shouted: "The little devil must have set up spies in our city!"
The chief of staff asked in a deep voice: "Master, is this possible?"
After pondering for a moment, Liang Shanhao shouted: "Long before the Japs started the war, Japs spies were carrying out frequent activities in various cities in China. Teng County's strategic position is so important, it is not impossible for the Japs to send spies!"
"
With a shuddering look on his face, the chief of staff exclaimed: "There are Japanese spies in the county. So, every move we make is under the control of the Japanese. This is terrible!"
With a trace of murderous intent flashing across his face, Liang Shanhao shouted: "If the Japanese spies are not eliminated for a day, our trump cards will be revealed to the little Japanese! Chief of Staff, you are backgrounded in intelligence work, will you have no problem dealing with the Japanese spies?"
After a slight hesitation, the chief of staff shouted: "No problem, but..."
Liang Shanhao shouted: "But what?"
The chief of staff shouted: "Japanese spies are not ordinary spies. I don't know how to get started?"
After thinking for a while, Liang Shanhao shouted: "The Japanese planes bombed the headquarters so accurately, which means that the Japanese radio station is nearby!"
It suddenly dawned on him that the chief of staff shouted: "What the teacher means is that as long as we find the location of the radio station, we can find the Japanese spies lurking in the county!"
…
Tenth Regiment Headquarters.
Akashiba Juhazo is preparing the starting position to direct the reconnaissance battle.
At this time, a communications soldier ran over.
After saluting Akashiba Yazozo, the communications soldier shouted: "Your Excellency, the regiment commander, the division headquarters has sent a notice that the Imperial Air Force just bombed the 122nd Division headquarters in Teng County!"
With a hint of joy on his face, Akashiba Jubaso shouted: "Nani? Is this true?"
The signal soldier shouted: "Hai! The 122nd Division headquarters has been hit by at least 7 aerial bombs!"
The chief of staff on the side shouted: "Your Excellency, Wing Commander, the 122nd Division headquarters should have been severely damaged, and their command system must have been paralyzed! We should send more troops at this time and attack the boundary river defense line with all our strength!"
Akashiba Juhazo shouted in a low voice: "Yoshi! Order the First Squadron to withdraw!"
The 1st Squadron suffered a lot of casualties during the reconnaissance battle, so it was time to withdraw and rest!
After a pause, Akashiba Yaezo shouted again: "Order! The artillery squadron launches an artillery bombardment on the boundary river defense line!"
The artillery squadron leader bowed towards Akashiba Juhaizang and shouted: "Hai!"
After a while, 12 Type 92 infantry guns of the Chichai Regiment were aimed at the boundary river defense line!
As the signal flag of the starter was raised, rows of artillery shells roared towards the boundary river position.
Whoosh!
Rumble, rumble!
For a moment, the boundary river defense line exploded with bright red flames.
Although the 1st Squadron suffered heavy losses in the reconnaissance battle, the 1st Squadron had already identified valuable attack targets for the artillery.
Therefore, the artillery squadron's artillery fire was very accurate.
The two heavy machine gun positions of the 512th Regiment were destroyed one after another!
With a heavy sigh, the acting commander of the 512th regiment shouted: "Damn it, little devil, this cannon is accurate enough!"
Looking secretly at the heavy machine gun position that had been blown into a pile of scrap metal, a battalion commander shouted: "Hey! The enemy's attack just now was not an attack at all. Their purpose was to find our machine gun firepower points! The enemy can also win this battle.
It’s so vicious!”
Shaking his head slightly, the acting captain shouted: "I just woke up now, it's already too late! Fortunately, the master told us to leave half of the machine guns in the second defense, otherwise this battle would really be impossible to fight!"
While talking, a high-explosive bomb exploded nearby!
The two officers hurriedly fell to the ground.
After shaking off the dust on his helmet, the battalion commander called out: "Team leader, hurry up and hide in the bombhole?"
While running towards the artillery hole, the acting regiment leader shouted: "The observation post, has it been topped up?"
As soon as he bent down and got into an L-shaped anti-gun hole, the battalion commander raised his voice and responded: "Come on, don't worry! We've already been on top!"
The Japanese bombardment lasted for thirty minutes, and soon the Japanese infantry began to attack!
Amid the smoke, a bugler blew a rapid trumpet note.
Hearing the sound of the trumpet, the soldiers of the Sichuan Army who were bombed to pieces got out of the shell holes one after another and quickly entered the position!
Turning over and lying on a parapet, the acting captain stared at the Japanese in front of him with bright eyes.
800 meters ahead, the Japanese rifle group, machine gun group, and grenade group were taking turns to cover their advance.
Chapter completed!
