Traveling through 1937, starting from the Battle of Songhu

Chapter 406: Mushroom Cloud Rising from Gaojia Town

Boom boom boom......

At six o'clock in the morning, with the first explosion in the Japanese supply camp, followed by a chain of violent explosions, all the Japanese in Gaojia Town were alarmed.

Flames shot up into the sky and explosions rang out in the Japanese supply camp, shocking the Japanese who rushed over.

why?

This question arose in the minds of all the devils.

"Bakayaloo, where's the cannon going?"

Inside the tent, the old Japanese soldier Matsuura was so scared that he almost lost his soul. His eyes were wide open. After a while, he woke up from the shouting of Colonel Nishizono.

"Bakayaro, what's going on?" Matsuura asked anxiously.

Xiyuan said in a distraught voice: "Your Excellency, the supply battalion, all our supplies are gone."

Before he came in, he saw the flames rising into the sky. Even Aunt Amaterasu couldn't save them, let alone the soldiers, so all their food was destroyed.

Zhao Ziqing will not be polite to the Japanese. The longer he stays in the Japanese camp, the angrier he becomes. How could he let these Japanese go?

In fact, the process was very simple. He first asked the blasting team to bury explosives, and then set fire to the Japanese food. After everyone evacuated, the blasting team members detonated the explosives to cause chaos, and then took advantage of the chaos to evacuate, and the mission of burning the Japanese food was completed.

Of course, Zhao Ziqing's mobilization could not have been just for the Japanese supplies; their 106th Division's mountain and field artillery regiment was also one of his targets.

Zhao Ziqing was so familiar with the Japanese army's layout that it was as familiar as his own home. They quickly evacuated from the Japanese army camp and then arrived at the location of the radio station he had placed in advance.

A telegram was sent to the artillery, and the artillerymen began to take action.

The rocket artillery has a range of 8.5 kilometers. Half an hour after their teammates took action, the artillerymen advanced six kilometers one after another. This was also arranged in advance.

whoosh…

Shell after shell was fired from the muzzle, aiming directly at the Japanese artillery regiment hidden in Gaojia Town.

Boom boom boom!

Shells exploded one after another as they landed on the ground, soon setting the surrounding buildings on fire. The raging fire made it seem as if it was dawn.

The artillery regiment of the 106th Division was in a terrible state. They had no time to react before they were triggered by a chain reaction explosion of 48 grenades. All the Japanese soldiers on guard around them were wiped out, and the Japanese soldiers from the 6th Division who had just joined them were also implicated.

Mizukawa Kita was secretly happy when he saw the miserable state of the 106th Division's supply camp, but the explosion in Gaojia Town left him dumbfounded.

Although the baggage of his 6th Division was not in that location, his mountain and field artillery was there. Isn't this really bad luck?

The supplies prepared by the Japanese commander were too abundant. The desperate preparations ensured that several divisions had sufficient artillery shells, which ultimately led to the explosion in Gaojia Town lasting for five or six minutes.

The entire area was blown into a deep pit, and not a single living thing or even a complete corpse was left around it.

A few kilometers away from Gaojia Town, Zhao Ziqing looked at the mushroom cloud rising in the direction of Gaojia Town. His mouth felt like it could fit an egg. The power was beyond his imagination.

Although he was familiar with the place, the 6th Division had just arrived, and he didn't know that the 6th Division's mountain and field artillery was also in the same place, otherwise he wouldn't have felt strange.

It must be said that Zhao Ziqing was lucky or had a good plan to achieve such an effect by using four 107 rocket launchers.

"Captain, how on earth did you do that?"

Xiao Wu's admiration for Zhao Ziqing at this time was simply astonishing. He had never seen anything like this before.

Their special forces team is strong, but if they want to make such a big noise at once, even if Gu Changfeng were to lead the team, he wouldn't be able to do it...

"Let's talk about it when we get back. Changfeng should be waiting."

Zhao Ziqing had no intention of explaining at this moment. The real thing was to hurry back to Xianyaling.

By the way, is it possible to take advantage of this opportunity to counterattack the Japanese?

Zhao Ziqing thought to himself and quickened his pace.

At Xianya Ridge, Gu Changfeng, who was also awakened by the explosion, left the room in a hurry without even putting on his clothes.

At this time, Zhou Qianli, Huang Zhengkui, and Yang Zhenhua all looked equally stunned. They looked at each other and hurriedly looked in the direction of the explosion.

Xianya Ridge is very high, the explosion in Gaojia Town was very violent, and the mushroom cloud that rose was also very conspicuous, so everyone was confused.

Gu Changfeng looked at Luo Xiong who was on duty. Seeing him shaking his head, he couldn't help but say, "Is this the devil being punished by God?"

They didn't take action, and the Eighth Route Army was even less likely to do so. If Wu Mazi took such action, he would definitely report it. Wouldn't that be a punishment from heaven?

At this moment, Gu Changfeng didn't think of the special forces.

The main reason was that he hadn't asked the special forces about the specific operation before, so he naturally put the matter behind him, and he certainly couldn't remember it now.

"Could it be Old Zhao?" Zhou Qianli asked thoughtfully.

Zhao Ziqing has been in the Japanese army camp all the time. Everyone above the battalion level knows this, so it is not difficult to guess.

Huang Zhengkui was about to speak when Gu Changfeng spoke first: "Whether it is true or not, we should take action."

"Order the artillery camp to march towards the Japs. Except for the fourth battalion that remains at Xianyaling, all others will advance towards the Japs."

This opportunity is rare, and the two parties are not far away from each other. It is the time to cause trouble, and he does not want to miss this opportunity.

In fact, when Zhou Qianli reminded him, he already had a guess in his mind that it must be the special forces.

Zhao Ziqing was indeed very good at hiding himself, making such a big noise secretly. Gu Changfeng was surprised and smiled bitterly in his heart. It was really...

In Gaojia Town, the temporary command post, the old Japanese soldier Song Pu seemed to have aged a dozen years in an instant and looked even more aged.

The blow was too great. They were ready to take down the independent regiment in one wave, but they didn't expect that an accident would happen on their side first.

The baggage was gone, the mountain and field artillery was gone, and even the 6th Division was lost. He must be feeling so frustrated at this moment.

After a while, Matsuura, who had managed to cheer himself up, spoke: "Gentlemen, tell me, how should we deal with this next."

He was too embarrassed to report to the headquarters at this time. It would bring shame to the entire military. He probably wouldn't be able to hold his job as division commander anymore after this battle.

"General, I think we should think about how to deal with the independent group's counterattack next."

"If I'm not mistaken, the Independent Regiment will be right in front of us and attack us in an hour at most."

Mizukawa Kita said with a gloomy expression.

He didn't want to join in the fun, but was forced to come and ended up with such a result. Isn't this just bad luck? Wouldn't it be better to use this time to wipe out the independent regiment in the mountains?

"Your Excellency, Division Commander, General Mizukawa is right. We should quickly organize the warriors for defense."

"It's not like we don't have the strength to resist. Some of the 26th Division's field artillery and our heavy artillery are still outside Gaojia Town."

Seeing the gloomy expression on his division commander's face, Colonel Nishizono couldn't help but remind him.

Hearing this, Matsuura perked up and nodded in satisfaction, saying, "Yoshi, Xiyuan-kun, please contact them quickly and ask them to provide support as soon as possible."

"Also, telegraph to headquarters: the independent regiment has launched a counterattack against us, requesting tactical guidance from the flight formation."

He was indeed stunned. When Kobayashi Ichisan left, he did not take all the mountain artillery with him.

Of course, the main reason was that they had to cross mountains and rivers and could not carry so much.

In fact, if Matsuura knew that when Kobayashi Ichizo left, he left behind Zhao Ziqing as a hidden danger, I wonder if he would have died of anger in the headquarters...
