Bright sword, I have a red police base car

"Deputy Chief of Staff, Armored Group and First Rapid Reaction Battalion report that all the Eighth Army troops deployed by the Japanese army in the western section of the Yellow River have been completely wiped out except for the 203rd Division and other attached troops."

"According to the report from the First Rapid Reaction Battalion, the Japanese's Yellow River defense line has collapsed?"

"Yes, Deputy Chief of Staff!"

After receiving a positive reply, Zhao Han immediately issued an order: "Order, the troops in the middle and eastern sections of the north bank of the Yellow River to launch a full-scale feint attack on the Japanese army, creating the illusion of our army's full-scale attack and attracting Japanese troops. The troops in the western section will immediately cross the river and merge with the armored cluster Comet, and launch an attack to the east as quickly as possible!"

"Yes!"

After finalizing the combat plan, the Red Alert Force immediately began frantic mobilization.

The reason why the troops in the middle and eastern sections launched a feint attack was mainly because they were afraid that the Japanese would escape.

After all, the Japanese army did not act in the best way as the Red Alert had expected and sent a large number of troops to reinforce the Eighth Army.

Now that the Japanese Eighth Army has been completely wiped out, the other troops will certainly realize that the size of the Red Alert force is not something they can resist.

And after the Yellow River defense line was breached, they no longer had the protection of the natural barrier of the Yellow River, and the remaining combat operations would definitely be aimed at retreat.

Therefore, the Red Alert Force asked him to completely wipe out these Japs. In addition to ordering the armored group to launch an attack as soon as possible, he also had to let the troops confronting each other across the river launch a feint attack on the Japanese army.

At the same time, Yoshio Shinozuka, who was at the Nanjing Command Center, finally received news from the Eighth Army. However, by the time the messenger passed the information back, the Japanese Eighth Army had already been wiped out.

Yoshio Shinozuka felt indescribable pain when he read the farewell message from the Eighth Army.

He lost the bet after all.

However, the severity of the consequences of losing this bet is beyond their ability to bear!
However, at this time, Yoshio Shinozuka could no longer care about anything else. Now it was a matter of life and death for their Shan Ge Army. Any hesitation would only result in greater casualties.

Yoshio Shinozuka knew too much about the Ping'an County Security Corps.

When the other side was fighting, there were not too many fancy strategies, and they all won by strength.

Their overall command is not very delicate, but with their strong combat ability, they can still give the feeling of "heavy sword without edge, great skill without effort".

When fighting against the Heian County Security Corps, Yoshio Shinozuka discovered that the other side would often expand their advantage after gaining a little advantage, until they were crushed with their absolute strength.

Moreover, in terms of tactics, the Ping'an County Security Corps' fighting style is as flexible and changeable as that of the Eighth Route Army. Compared with the Eighth Route Army, the Ping'an County Security Corps seems to have no bottom line.

When they fight, they really just kill as many as they can and rarely give anyone a chance to make peace.

So after a brief but careful consideration, Shinozuka Yoshio directly issued an order: "Order the 19th Army and the Independent 3rd, 4th, and 8th Heavy Artillery Divisions to hold the entire Yellow River defense line and block the Ping'an County Security Corps. The rest of the troops will immediately complete the assembly and turn to the east China!"

"Hai, your Excellency, Commander!"

Under tremendous pressure, Yoshio Shinozuka now has no choice but to abandon the 19th Army and the three heavy artillery divisions.

Now he only hoped that these troops could fight longer under the pursuit of the Ping'an County Security Corps, so that as many of their troops as possible could be transferred to the East China direction.

At the same time, Yoshio Shinozuka also informed Iwane Matsui who was in Shanghai about the situation here.

At this time, Matsui Iwane, who was at the Shanghai Command Center, was busy and overwhelmed.

After arriving in Shanghai from his homeland, Hirohito's health had recovered to a certain extent at first, but as time went on, his physical condition became increasingly serious.

The disease is showing signs of being out of control.

In order to diagnose the illness of old Biyang Hirohito, the Japanese invited a large number of doctors to diagnose him, but doctors in Shanghai and even Jiangsu were unable to determine what disease old Hirohito had.

At first, only the Japanese military doctors treated him, and only when they were helpless did they invite Chinese doctors.

However, due to the sensitive identity of Hirohito, the old devil, all Chinese doctors who were unable to treat the disease were brutally killed by the devils.

For Hirohito, the Japanese specially transferred a medical team of nearly 037 people from the Kwantung Army. However, when the first medical team was passing through the waters near Shandong by boat, they mistakenly entered the Red Alert Navy's warning zone and were sunk by the escort boat sent by the Red Alert Navy.

Therefore, the Kwantung Army could only send a second batch of medical teams to Shanghai, but due to the detour, the Japanese medical ships are still in the East China Sea and have not arrived.

Seeing Hirohito becoming more and more haggard, Matsui Iwane was worried.

Matsui Iwane, who was already in a bad mood, became even more furious when he saw Shinozuka Yoshio's telegram.

"Bakayalu! Who knows the Ping'an County Security Team best? They are all trash! All trash!"

"A million troops! A full million people! It's only been a few days and they've completely collapsed. It's like a million pigs on the Yellow River defense line. The Ping'an County Security Corps can't catch them all in a few days!"

A female staff officer nearby, seeing an unhealthy blush on Matsui Iwane's face, immediately stepped forward to comfort him.

"Commander, please take care of yourself!"

Comforted by the female staff officer beside him, Matsui Iwane let out a breath and then issued new orders to the troops on the Yellow River defense line.

"Order all troops to obey Shinozuka Yoshio's command and retreat to East China! Send another telegram to Shinozuka Yoshio, asking him to bring as many troops as possible back to East China. North China has already been lost, and East China cannot afford any more mistakes!"

"Hai, Your Excellency the Commander."

Although Matsui Iwane was very angry when he received the telegram from Yoshio Shinozuka, he understood the current situation very well.

Yoshio Shinozuka must be held responsible for the loss of the Yellow River defense line, but there are too few senior commanders around him now.

A thousand troops are easy to get, but a general is hard to find.

What’s more, there was a Japanese general who had fought with the Ping’an County Security Corps so many times and still survived?

Originally, the Japanese army had quite a few high-ranking generals, but after the Red Alert's decapitation operations, the number of generals began to decline sharply. Most of the current Japanese brigade commanders, division commanders, and even army commanders were newly promoted.

For the Japanese army, a general with rich combat experience is more important than an independent division.

Yoshio Shinozuka, who was preparing to retreat in Jinan, almost burst into tears after seeing the telegram from Iwane Matsui.

He originally thought that after Matsui Iwane knew the situation here, he would withdraw him as soon as possible, but he did not expect that Matsui Iwane trusted him so much.

"Call Commander Iwane Matsui back. I, Yoshio Shinozuka, will live up to your trust and bring back as many troops as possible!"

At this time, on the front line of the Japanese army, the Red Alert's artillery was firing crazily.

“Boom boom boom boom” “Bagayalu, the artillery fire of the Ping’an County Security Corps is too fierce, why don’t our artillery fire back?!”

"I heard from the artillery that their artillery's range can't reach the artillery of the Ping'an County Security Corps, and the Ping'an County Security Corps has no way to find the artillery's firing position the moment the artillery fires, so the artillery doesn't dare to fire at all."

"How can we give up? These idiots deserve to die. Are we going to be left alone to be bombarded by the Ping'an County Security Corps?!"

Under the attack of artillery fire, the troops of the Japanese 19th Army could only passively endure the bombing in the anti-artillery fortifications of the position.

Fortunately, a large number of personnel from the 19th Army have been withdrawn, and the density of personnel on the position is not high, so the number of casualties is not large.

As grassroots Japanese soldiers, they did not know that the 19th Army had become abandoned. At this time, the 10th Army and the 13th Army and a large number of direct-affiliated troops had already begun to evacuate.

At the same time, the armored cluster of the Red Alert Force also quickly headed towards Jinan in accordance with the combat plan with the river crossing troops.

On the way, all the troops encountered by the Red Alert were powerless in the face of the armored cluster.

However, before building the Yellow River defense line, the Japanese laid a large number of telephone lines here, so no matter where the Red Alert troops attacked, the Japanese troops in Jinan could receive the news at the first time.

"Commander, we have a call from Dongping. The attacking force of the Ping'an County Security Corps is expected to arrive in 20 minutes!"

"What?! They reached Dongping?!"

"Hai, the troops in Dongping are now adjusting their defense areas. Commander Matsuyama Heiichiro said they can hold Dongping for three days!"

Shinozuka Yoshio raised his eyebrows when he heard this, then sneered.

"Three days? Haha, the entire Eighth Army couldn't even hold out for a day, and their two regiments in Dongping County can hold out for three days? Well, I don't have time to listen to your jokes. Order the troops to march out immediately and head south towards East China!"

"Hai!"

Just as the Japanese 10th and 13th Armies and many of their subordinate units were retreating, satellites flying over the area immediately detected abnormalities in the Japanese army.

The Intelligence Department then conveyed the news to the Air Force and requested Air Force reconnaissance aircraft that were performing missions in the nearby airspace to conduct reconnaissance.

"Command Center, this is Sky Eye 93. We have discovered that a large number of Japanese troops are moving to the south. The initial estimate is that the number is over ! There are also Japanese troops moving in other directions. Please send more reconnaissance forces to search!"

"Command received!"

After the reconnaissance plane reported the situation, the Intelligence Department also summarized the intelligence sent back from the Japanese army.

After preliminary analysis, the number of Japanese troops retreating southward this time was definitely no less than 400,000!

Zhang Ning sighed when he heard this: "Fuck, with 400,000 troops, no wonder the reconnaissance range of a reconnaissance plane is not enough!"

Zhang Shijie: "Order Ye Fan and Wang Yu to lead the armored group to encircle and annihilate the Japanese army as soon as possible. The Japanese have a million people this time. I don't know when there will be such a good battle next time!"

"Yes, Chief!"

Under the command of the Red Alert Command, the Red Alert's armored cluster accelerated again.

However, among the attacking forces at this time, the one with the most advanced progress was not the armored cluster, but the Red Alert Force's First Quick Reaction Battalion.

As a unit adjusted and reorganized from a high-mobility force, the First Rapid Reaction Battalion's advance speed far exceeds that of the armored cluster's heavily mechanized forces.

The troops of the 1st Quick Reaction Battalion reached the city of Dongping County, which was occupied by two Japanese regiments, in less than fifteen minutes.

"Baga, how come the Ping'an County Security Team arrived so quickly?!"

Dongping County garrison commander Heiichiro Matsuyama was immediately disappointed when he saw the First Quick Reaction Battalion preparing its artillery.

Their troops have not yet completed their preparations. Now that the Ping'an County Security Corps has launched an attack, they don't know whether their defensive forces are sufficient.

"Order the artillery positions to fire immediately after the positions are built. Open all ammunition depots and pull out the 150mm howitzers inside!"

"Hai!"

Although Heiichiro Matsuyama of Dongping County had never fought against the Ping'an County Security Corps, he had heard of the reputation of the Red Alert Force. The reason why he was confident that he could hold Dongping County for three days was because the Japanese had a heavy artillery division-level ammunition depot in Dongping County.

In addition to artillery shells, this ammunition depot also contains some spare artillery.

However, when the Japanese went to the ammunition depot to pull the artillery, the artillery unit of the 1st Quick Reaction Battalion had completed its preparations.

After all, the rapid reaction force's artillery support firepower is a 105mm recoilless gun, which is installed on 212 jeeps by the Red Alert Force, and preparations before firing can be completed in less than 1 minute.

"put!"

"Boom boom boom boom."

As shells were fired one after another, the Japanese defense lines deployed on the city walls were directly blown to pieces.

Dongping is just a county town, and its city walls are naturally incomparable to those of important cities such as Taiyuan and Beiping. Under the attack of the Red Alert's 105mm artillery, it can only be said to be vulnerable.

When the Japanese saw the artillery shells fired at the Red Alert troops, they almost didn't react.

"What?! Can their artillery fire shells without any preparation?!"

Before the Japanese could react, the troops of the 1st Quick Reaction Battalion launched the next attack.

"Bagayalu, order the troops to rush to the west gate for reinforcements immediately, hurry up!"

After the city wall defense line was breached, the Japanese defensive forces on the periphery were basically destroyed.

Now in Dongping County, no one can stop the Red Alert troops from entering the city.

"What?! The Ping'an County Security Corps has entered the city?! What are their infantry troops doing?"

After hearing the news that the Ping'an County Security Corps had entered the city, the Japanese artillery commander was already frowning as he looked at the artillery positions that had not yet been completed.

This is the first time he commands so many artillery troops!

Can't the Ping'an County Security Team give me a chance? (End of this chapter)
