Chapter 541: The Japanese Navy's Mistake

Seeing that the Japanese troops on the ground were setting fire to Chinese villages, the Red Alert soldiers on the aerial gunboats did not show any leniency to them.

The 100mm air force guns, 37mm rapid-fire guns and 30mm Gatling guns began to fire crazily at the Japanese on the ground from the sky.

After receiving the order, the Japanese army regretted arson deeply.

Now that they have recruited the Ping'an County Security Corps' air force because of the arson, these Japanese devils must be regretting their decision!
"Order the troops to evacuate quickly!"

"Run!"

Under the attack of the Red Alert's aerial gunboats, the Japanese infantry regiment, which had almost no air defense capability, was directly blown and fled in all directions.

At the same time, the naval base also dispatched a seaplane for firefighting to control the fire in Luyang Village.

Throughout the Shandong battlefield, the Red Alert's ground forces also began to clear out the scattered Japanese troops.

On the Yellow River defense line, the armored group also began to encircle and annihilate the last troops of the Japanese 19th Army.

"Baga! Order the artillery to stop holding back and immediately launch a counterattack against the Ping'an County Security Corps!"

"Commander, once the artillery opens fire, the Ping'an County Security Corps will definitely counterattack immediately!"

"Don't worry about whether to fight back or not. If this continues, the Ping'an County Security Corps will eat us all up. Even if only the artillery is left, can they stop the Ping'an County Security Corps?"

"Hai, General!"

At this time, the Japanese soldiers who had been forced to Qingdao by the Red Alert armored group were desperate. Behind them was the sea, and in the previous naval battle with the Red Alert, the Japanese soldiers had lost a large number of ships.

And most importantly, this operation is no longer carried out under the order of the headquarters, and it is impossible for the navy's naval fleet to come to support their army at this time.

Therefore, the Qingdao area was the last foothold of the Japanese 19th Army.

"I'll give it to you, Yasi!"

"Boom boom boom boom boom."

After nearly 20 minutes of command transmission, the artillery of the last brigade of the Japanese army finally began to fire at the troops of the Ping'an County Security Corps.

However, since the Red Alert Force was conducting an armored march at this time and the armored infantry were now in infantry fighting vehicles and armored personnel carriers, the Japanese artillery attacks did not cause too many casualties to the Red Alert Force.

However, under the coverage of artillery, a few unlucky Red Alert armored vehicles suffered heavy casualties from the artillery fire.

Even two armored vehicles were directly hit by the Japanese 150mm guns.

However, when facing the Japanese artillery attacks, the artillery units accompanying the Red Alert forces in the rear were also not idle.

In the internal organization of the Red Alert Force, the artillery aiming radar has been delegated to the company-level artillery units, so when the Japanese opened fire, the supporting firepower of the Red Alert Force immediately adjusted the artillery direction under the guidance of the radar.

"Good shot!"

"Good second shot!"

"Three shots are good!"

"Attention, all companies! Position: 267, 814, Altitude: 255, high-explosive bomb, time fuse 26 seconds, three rapid shots, fire!"

Less than a minute after the Japanese artillery opened fire, the Red Alert's artillery began its counterattack against the Japanese artillery.

Before the Japanese could fire a few shots, they were suppressed by more than a dozen 122mm howitzers of the Red Alert Force.

Then there were loud explosions from the Japanese artillery positions.

"idiot!"

Hearing the explosions from the artillery positions in the rear, the commander of the 19th Army of the Japanese Army could not help but curse angrily.

But at this point in the battle, the Japanese have been completely trapped here. If there is no support from the sea, the Japanese 19th Army will be completely wiped out here.

"Radio, no response yet?!"

"Commander, our radio is constantly calling out, but there has been no response from the navy so far."

"Bagaya road!"

Since the last remaining Japanese troops are now in a desperate situation, even though they know that the Ping'an County Security Corps is suppressing them electromagnetically, the Japanese still want to try their best to save the situation.

What if the electromagnetic interference of the Ping'an County Security Team is interrupted, do they still have a chance to survive?

However, the most important thing for them now is to block the attack of Ping'an County Security Group as much as possible.

At this time, the Red Alert troops were on the front line of the battlefield, using a coordinated combat mode of infantry, artillery and tanks to steadily advance towards the Japanese army. Although the Japanese had built a corresponding line of defense, they were still defeated under the fierce attack of the Red Alert troops.

Compared with the Japanese troops whose numbers were decreasing as they grew, the Red Alert troops, which continued to cross the river on a large scale after the defense line collapsed, had more and more troops.

As the strength of the troops increased and decreased, the Japanese 19th Army and other remaining troops were full of resentment towards the Japanese high-ranking officials.

After all, they are a group of people who have been abandoned, so naturally their perception of decision makers is extremely poor.

And under the attack of the Ping'an County Security Corps, they saw no hope of survival.

"Baga, why did you let us stay here instead of sending troops to support us? Do you want all of our 19th Army to die here?!"

Just as this group of desperate Japanese soldiers were complaining, a ship suddenly appeared outside the coastline held by the Japanese army. As the ship got closer and closer, the Japanese soldiers also saw the Rising Sun flag on the destroyer.

"Navy! It's a navy ship!"

"The navy is here, we are saved!"

After the Japanese destroyer came into sight, the Japanese soldiers suddenly rejoiced, and their originally low morale instantly rose.

Even the commander of the 19th Army stood up happily when he heard that the navy ships were approaching.

However, the Japanese Navy destroyers on the sea at this time did not know what the Japanese army on land was thinking.

This destroyer was ordered by the Japanese Navy to check out the current situation in Shandong. Shandong also has many naval mooring points. If the Ping'an County Reporting Corps has occupied this place, they will have to completely change their garrison position.

And in this operation, they only dispatched one destroyer.

With only one destroyer, what support can we give them?
Could it be possible that this destroyer could suppress the entire ground forces of the Ping'an County Security Corps?

"Captain, our radio station can no longer send out messages!"

"It looks like we have entered the radio interference range of the Ping'an County Security Corps."

Looking at the 19th Army position that was being covered by artillery fire, the captain of the Japanese destroyer also put down the telescope in his hand. "Turn left and conduct close reconnaissance!"

"Hayi, turn left!"

When the Japanese destroyers were planning to get close to scout the current battle situation, they were unaware that their movements had been spotted by the Red Alert's reconnaissance aircraft.

In addition, the reconnaissance aircraft of the Red Alert Air Force also sent a notification to the army troops on the shore as soon as possible.

"Armored group, this is Sky Eye 47, we have spotted an enemy destroyer approaching the exchange area, please take precautions!"

"Armored Group received. Are there any other Japanese ships around?"

"There is only one destroyer within 200 kilometers."

"Armored Cluster understands!"

After confirming that the Japanese only had one destroyer this time, the Red Alert troops immediately understood the Japanese intentions.

This is the Japanese reconnaissance ship.

However, even if it is a reconnaissance ship, the Red Alert force must respond.

Now the Japs are about to enter the effective range of the Japanese destroyers. If this reconnaissance destroyer relies on its own speed to harass the Red Alert forces, it would be a loss.

When threats are discovered, Red Alert warriors prefer to eliminate them in the bud.

So after determining the location of the Japanese destroyer, the artillery units of the armored group immediately maneuvered toward the coast and aimed the muzzles of the self-propelled artillery at the destroyer on the sea.

Since the firing rate of naval guns far exceeds that of land artillery, the Red Alert force dispatched an entire company of 152mm self-propelled howitzers to provide fire coverage on the Japanese destroyers.

The Japanese destroyer that was conducting close reconnaissance never expected that the Ping'an County Security Corps would send so many artillery to encircle it.

More than a dozen shells fell around the destroyer, splashing water on the hull. The shock waves generated by the explosion also caused strange noises in the underwater part of the hull.

After all, the distance was too close, and several shells were near misses.

Seeing that the Ping'an County Security Corps was bombarding them, the Japanese captain immediately ordered the ship to turn the rudder to disengage, and at the same time ordered the ship's guns to counterattack the Ping'an County Security Corps' land artillery positions.

However, when the Japanese destroyer was turning, two 152mm howitzers hit the destroyer directly, hitting the No. 2 turret and the torpedo tube respectively.

The entire No. 2 turret was directly blown into a pile of scrap metal by a delayed-action armor-piercing shell, and the shell that hit the torpedo tube took the life of the Japanese.

There are still four torpedoes in the Japanese torpedo tube!
Although this shot did not cause the torpedo to explode, it caused the torpedo's fuel to leak. If the Ping'an County Security Corps fired another shot, the torpedo that exploded would probably have directly blown the destroyer in two!

So under the order of the Japanese captain, the Japanese destroyer immediately turned around and disengaged.

Looking at the destroyer that was running farther and farther away, the Japanese soldiers of the 19th Army were dumbfounded.

"No. You just ran away like that?!"

The Japanese soldiers who were cheering in the last second were frozen in place in the next second.

The emotions are incoherent, okay?!

At this time, the smarter Japanese soldiers had already understood that this destroyer was not here to pick them up or provide them with support, it was just a reconnaissance ship!
Isn't this such a mistake?
Of course, this destroyer may have had some ideas of supporting them, but under the bombardment of the Ping'an County Security Corps, the Japanese chose to protect themselves.

So the destroyer turned around and sailed away in full view of the 19th Army.

The Japanese destroyers have left, and the remaining troops of the 19th Army are now in trouble.

As a military-level unit with a full strength of over 150,000 people, and reinforced by several independent divisions, the number of Japanese troops at this time was less than 20,000 under the attack of the Red Alert Force.

As for these little devils, the Red Alert Force immediately took action and ordered the armored forces to launch a final round of large-scale attacks, completely breaking through the last line of defense of the Japanese army and encircling and annihilating the remaining little devils.

After the defense line of the 120th Army collapsed, the commander was protected by a group of Japanese staff officers and left the precarious headquarters. Shortly after they left the headquarters, a mm mortar shell fell directly on the Japanese headquarters.

"boom!"

Several Japanese staff officers looked back at their previous command center and their faces turned pale.

If they had left a little later, they would probably have been covered by the explosion.

However, their relief did not last long, as another 120mm mortar exploded next to them, and the commander of the th Army was blown to ashes by the Red Alert's mortar without any warning.

The surrounding staff also suffered heavy casualties in the explosion.

"The commander is dead! The commander is dead!"

As a surviving staff officer shouted sadly, the Japanese soldiers around him suddenly lost their will to fight.

"Bakayalu! You, a idiot, are actually disturbing the morale of the army!"

A Japanese squadron leader who was deeply influenced by Bushido stood up immediately, took out his pistol and executed the staff officer directly, but when he looked back at his troops, he found that they had thrown their guns to the ground.

"Baga, what are you doing, put down your guns"

"Thumbs up~"

Before the Japanese captain could finish his words, the approaching Red Alert soldier used an automatic rifle to shoot him with a short burst, killing him.

The remaining Japanese soldiers all laid down their weapons and raised their hands in surrender.

Surrender is contagious. After the first Japanese soldier surrendered, the leaderless Japanese soldiers also began to raise their hands and surrender one after another.

"Reporting to the deputy commander, the remaining Japanese troops have all surrendered, and the Second Tank Battalion and the Second Mechanized Infantry Battalion are currently accepting the surrender!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Yu gave an immediate order: "Let the Second Mechanized Infantry Battalion deal with the surrendered Japanese soldiers, and the rest of the troops will all follow me to advance southward. If we don't get this done, Director Liu and the Deputy Chief of Staff will fight their way to Jiangsu!"

"Yes!"

After the armored troops began to turn around and head south, Wang Yu said to Ye Fan in the headquarters: "Old Ye, I will lead the troops south, but the logistics support for our armored group is not enough now. Time is running out. I will lead the troops to pursue south first, and you will support the logistics in the rear. How much meat our armored group can eat now depends on you!"

"Don't worry, Lao Wang, I will definitely provide logistical support!"

After completing the division of labor, Wang Yu immediately led his troops south, trying to snatch a bite of meat from Liu Huaqiang and Zhao Han's mouths.

However, what they didn't expect was that Liu Huaqiang and Zhao Han's troops didn't get much of a bite.

The Japanese were all broken up into small groups, and we could only defeat small groups of them along the way. (End of this chapter)
