I'm killing enemies with my sword and exploding equipment

Chapter 527 God is helping us, the little devils only have seven regiments!
Just as all the troops in northwestern Shanxi were preparing intensively to face the test of the 57th Division of the Little Japanese Liaodong Army.

The division commander, Lieutenant General Ito Shigo, was on a train, drinking wine and listening to vinyl records.

Sitting opposite him was Major General Akiba Ryuken, chief of staff of the 57th Division.

At this moment, he was holding a telegram from General Okamura and reading it to the division commander opposite.

Amidst the "bang, bang" sound of the train, Ito Shigang finished listening to the telegram and immediately sneered:

"That good-for-nothing Isamu Hiragaku was the most useless among our classmates back in mainland China!
Now, with the strength of a brigade, they were defending the city. In less than half a day, they were completely wiped out by Tubal Road, and the water spring was lost!

It is simply a disgrace to our Locust Army!

I, Shigo Ito, am so ashamed of our teacher!

It is a disgrace to His Majesty Tian Locust to teach such useless students! "

His words made Akiba Ryuken a little unable to accept.

After all, when he was studying at the mainland university, his grades were not as good as those of Akiha Ryuken, Hiraru Yufu!

After thinking for three seconds, Akiba Ryuken changed the topic:

"Your Excellency, Division Commander, we still have two hours to reach Shimen. Should we rest for half a day and continue our journey to Shuiquan tomorrow?

The captains of each regiment came to see me just now. They said that our warriors are very tired due to the long journey these days, and some even feel war-weary. "

"idiot!
Anyone who is timid and afraid of fighting should be handed over to the gendarmerie immediately!

The opportunity for our 57th Division to go south and make contributions is because of the trust placed in us by General Okamura, which we must not let down!

Tell the warriors of the Locust Army, the glory of the warrior, in this one move, you must not shrink from the difficulties! "

Shigo Ito's attitude is very determined.

He felt in his heart that although the journey from Liaodong Province was long, most of the time was spent sitting in the train. What was there to be tired of?
No matter how tired you are, won't your fatigue disappear as soon as you drink this little wine and sleep?

Little did he know that he was also taking a train, and that he was riding in a high-level officer's compartment. It was spacious, could sit and lie down, and had everything he wanted.

Drinking a little wine and listening to a little tune, it's so refreshing.

As for the ordinary soldiers at the bottom, there were hundreds of people sitting in stuffy tank cars. The air was so polluted that it was difficult to go to the toilet.

Although the food supply is sufficient, most of them are steamed buns and rice balls. There is no supply of vegetables and fruits at all, and the nutrition is not balanced at all!
Over the past ten days, many soldiers have fallen ill, which can be described as miserable!

Seeing how tough he was, Akiba Ryuken could only sigh and said:
"Hey, I got it!

I'm going to pass on the order from the division commander! "

"General Okamura ordered us to reach Shuiquan within three days, so we must arrive in three days, and we must not delay even a minute!

The military order is like a mountain!

Qiuye-kun, do you understand? "

"Hey! I understand!
The humble staff will order the train to speed up and try to reach Shuiquan in advance! "

Qiuye Ryuken nodded repeatedly.

He knew very well that the other party was not satisfied with being a lieutenant general division commander and wanted to make progress!

……

Under the urging of Akiba Ryuken, the boiler worker on the train was forced to shovel coal much faster, and almost died from exhaustion.

Finally, the steam train squeezed a little more speed, and finally arrived at Shimen Railway Station at around four o'clock in the afternoon.

A young Japanese captain who was responsible for guarding Shimen came to bring people to greet them.

"Dear Division Commander, your humble position is Kurokawa Satake, Captain of the Shimen Defense Regiment.

Your Excellency, the division commander, please go and rest as you are responsible for your humble duties. General Okamura has given orders in advance and the barracks and supplies have been prepared. "

Upon hearing the name of the alliance this man called himself, Shigo Ito curled his lips in disdain.

There is not even a formal unit number, which clearly shows that it is a temporary third-line guard force formed at Shimen, with no combat effectiveness at all!

He was too lazy to talk nonsense with this man and ordered coldly:
"Do not bother!

Immediately arrange for people to add coal and water to the train. We must continue westward immediately until we reach Shuiquan City! "

As soon as he heard this, Kurokawa Satake sweated on his forehead and said quickly:
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, it is no longer possible to pass the train to Shuiquan."

Shigo Ito thought it was the Eighth Route Army that destroyed the railway near Shuiquan, so he immediately nodded and said:
"Yo Xi, then sit down at Niangziguan!
I've seen the train schedule, and there is a train station in Niangziguan! "

Kurokawa Satake was sweating profusely and muttered:
"Division... Your Excellency, Division Commander, there is an unexpected situation at Niangzi Pass, and trains are currently unable to pass."

"Nani?
idiot!

Could it be that Tubal Road also captured Niangziguan? "

Ito Shigang was very angry and slapped the other person in the face——

"Snapped!"

Kurokawa Satake was beaten and he didn't dare to fart.

After all, I am just a small lieutenant general, and the other party is the commander of the division, a high-ranking lieutenant general!
He could only explain shakily:
"Just this morning, the 9th Independent Brigade of the Shanxi-Sui Army captured Niangzi Pass.

At present, the subordinates have insufficient troops, so they can only stick to Shimen according to General Okamura's request, and cannot attack to retake Niangzi Pass. "Nani?"
The 9th independent brigade of the Jinsui Army?
Which army is this?

I heard that the Jinsui Army was beaten to a pulp by our Locust Army before?

Even the hometown of Jinyang City was captured.

Now you are so bold that you dare to attack Niang Guan? "

Shigo Ito couldn't believe it.

"Your Excellency, Division Commander, this Independent 9th Brigade is a newly formed unit of the Jinsui Army. It was originally upgraded from the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army.

Their brigade commander was named Chu Yunfei, who was born in the fifth phase of Huangpu and was a rare Huangpu general among the Jinsui Army. "

Kurokawa Satake explained.

"Yo Xi, Huangpu Phase 5?

Looks like a character!
Then use his head to appetize the warriors under my command! "

Ito Shigang said with a ferocious smile.

That gloomy and terrifying look made Kurokawa Satake feel a little numb.

"Immediately mobilize all the cars in Shimen to transport my warriors to Shuiquan!

On the way, I will help you deal with Chu Yunfei at Niangzi Pass! "

Shigo Ito shouted an order.

"Hi!"

Kurokawa Satake didn't dare to say "no" and quickly agreed loudly.

……

The train could not move forward, and the soldiers of the 57th Division could only get off the train and prepare to transfer to cars.

When they learned that they could finally get off the dirty train, the soldiers at the bottom cheered and jumped out of the train like rabbits.

However, these infantrymen were happy, but the soldiers of the artillery regiment were miserable. It would take a lot of effort to get their 48 heavy artillery pieces from the train.

Chief of Staff Tatsuken Akiba quickly suggested to Shigo Ito:

"Your Excellency, Division Commander, why don't you leave the job of moving equipment to Kurokawa-kun!
Let our warriors rest for a few hours! "

Ito Shigang thought about it and felt that his warriors were used to fight the enemy, not as porters.

It is suitable for Kurokawa Satake's waste garrison to be used as porters.

So he immediately nodded and agreed.

Kurokawa Satake heard that another task fell on him, and he felt naturally a little unhappy.

He thought to himself: My warriors are used to defend the city, not as porters!

As soon as he rolled his eyes, he saw the two leaders of the Locust Association following him like dogs, and he immediately had an idea.

Immediately order these two people to take their Locust Alliance troops to work.

When the two Japanese Army leaders heard this order, they didn't have any objections. Anyway, as long as they didn't go to fight with Master Ba, that would be fine.

Immediately, he took two groups of nearly 2000 people and went to the train station to work.

With their help, all the artillery had not been moved off the train. Information about when the 57th Division arrived at Shimen, the total number of troops, and how many heavy artillery pieces were quickly passed to the intelligence personnel of our army.

And then pass it up layer by layer...

……

Soon, Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang, who were stationed in Shuiquan, received the information from the brigade commander.

When Li Yunlong saw the intelligence that the 57th Division of the Liaodong Army had arrived in Shuiquan, a fully equipped B division with 36 75mm mountain guns and 12 105mm howitzers, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Although this division has 7 regiments and more than people, it is obviously much easier to deal with than the Type A division with more than people.

He immediately said to Zhao Gang:
"Old Zhao, it seems that God is helping us. This little devil's division only has seven regiments!"

Hearing this, Zhao Gang wanted to roll his eyes and thought to himself: Are you talking humanly?
What do you mean there are only 7 alliances?
If these words are heard by other brothers in the army, they will beat you up!
How many troops, faced with a large group of Japs, would immediately withdraw into the mountains to fight guerrillas?
Let alone a coalition!

That is a powerful force that every brigade must avoid if it encounters it!
But now, Li Yunlong is actually lucky that the enemy has "only" seven regiments!
Forcibly restraining the urge to quarrel with him, Zhao Gang replied:

"Old Li, the seven regiments are not easy to mess with. Let's synchronize the information to all the regiment leaders!
Especially Captain Yang of Barley Valley, they will face the greatest pressure. "

"Well, just ask the telegraph operator to send the report.

I went to Hutou Mountain to check the gun positions of Zhuzhu and others. This commanding height of Hutou Mountain is very important and cannot be careless! "

……

Yang Yuanshan of Damaigu received a report from the telegraph operator, saying that what arrived at Shimen was the B Division of the Little Japanese Liaodong Army, with a strength of 24,000, so he naturally felt a little more at ease.

It is always easier to fight against type B divisions than against type A divisions.

But he immediately began to worry about Wei Dayong's special operations company. They were on their way to bombard Shimen Airport. Wouldn't they just hit the muzzle of this division's guns?
