The leader of the Japanese brigade almost collapsed.

The previous rocket attack had doubled its pressure.

Unexpectedly, now, the number of heavy artillery in the Chinese army has suddenly increased. It seems that there are hundreds of heavy artillery firing.

Angry and anxious.

Frightened again.

Immediately report to the division headquarters.

Kenji Doihara looked livid when he received the report.

Very bad.

Falling into the enemy's trap.

Tai'erzhuang is an encirclement set up by the Chinese.

The Chinese are determined to encircle and annihilate the two Japanese divisions here. Their plan is huge.

"Your Mightiness……"

The chief of staff was also very anxious.

Zoucheng was captured by the Chinese in just two hours.

An infantry regiment, with more than 3,000 people, is missing. It is obviously in danger. That is an infantry regiment!

According to the Japanese army's combat effectiveness standards, one regiment can fight against one Chinese army.

As a result, they were defeated by the Chinese in just two hours?

Incredible. Absolutely impossible to be true.

"Report!"

A staff officer carefully probed.

The chief of staff went out and took the telegram over and looked at it carefully.

The telegram was sent by the Japanese troops near Zoucheng. It indicated that some Japanese troops had reached their positions.

It is said that it suffered an unprecedented heavy artillery bombardment and suffered heavy losses.

Zoucheng has indeed been captured by the Chinese. Naturally, the Jinpu Railway has also been cut off.

"Unprecedented artillery fire?"

"Are they all heavy artillery?"

The chief of staff was very puzzled and couldn't believe it.

Where did the Chinese find so many heavy artillery? Did the Soviets give them to them?

However, the information didn’t say that!

Is it a failure of the intelligence services?

A dozen heavy artillery regiments are hundreds of heavy artillery pieces!

Don’t you even know this? Someone must commit seppuku!

"Your Mightiness……"

"Report immediately to the Second Army Headquarters."

"Tie."

"The entire army attacks southward. Zoucheng must be recovered."

"Tie!"

The chief of staff went out to deliver orders.

Doihara Kenji's face became increasingly gloomy.

He can't ignore death.

The siege of the Fifth Division and the Tenth Division is definitely not a trivial matter.

In the history of the Japanese army, there has never been a precedent for two divisions being surrounded. If they were completely annihilated...

Then he shook his head.

This is impossible. Absolutely impossible.

It is impossible for Seishiro Sakagaki and Rensuke Isotani to be completely wiped out.

Even if they suffer heavy losses, they will find a way to break out.

If they want to break through, it's impossible for the Chinese to stop them. Absolutely impossible.

The 14th Division must attack southward with all its strength to open the passage and support Seishiro Sakagaki and Rensuke Isotani to break through.

Right now, defending Yanzhou is the most critical.

Yanzhou must not be allowed to continue to fall.

"Someone is coming!"

"Tie!"

"Order the Yanzhou garrison not to take a single step back! Anyone who violates this will commit hara-kiri!"

"Tie!"

"Order the heavy artillery regiment to speed up south and enter the battle."

"Tie!"

The chief of staff rushed to deliver the order.

The Chinese army has so many heavy artillery, which is a very deadly threat.

The heavy artillery regiment of the 14th Division must also hurry up and get to the front line.

The 105mm heavy cannon equipped by the Japanese army has a long range and can effectively suppress the Chinese howitzers.

…

"Boom boom boom..."

"Boom boom boom..."

Zhang Yong held up his telescope to observe the effects of the bombardment.

It's a bit unsatisfactory. It's much worse than the Zoucheng side. The main reason is that the Japanese invaders have more fortifications here.

Yanzhou was considered one of the strategic locations in ancient times. It has always had troops stationed there since the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

Various fortifications have been repaired repeatedly and intermittently. They have been accumulated until now.

There are many places that can still resist 107 rocket launchers.

One of the shortcomings of the 107 rocket launcher is its insufficient ability to destroy fortifications.

What it is best at is killing unprotected targets on a large scale. Mainly infantry. If it is a solid fortification, it will be bad.

"superior!"

"superior!"

The infantry began to advance.

Under the cover of artillery fire, the battle for position began.

The fortifications of the Japanese invaders' outer positions were not that strong, and the rockets had a slightly better ground-clearing effect.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Intermittent gunshots were heard.

There are not many remaining Japanese invaders. Of course they are no match for the national army.

After the overwhelming bombing, many Japanese invaders were still alive, but their consciousness was not very clear and they were confused.

The artillery fire began to spread.

Mainly because I'm worried about hitting one of my own people.

After all, the accuracy of rockets is relatively random and has a large error.

"Chirp chirp chirp..."

"Chirp chirp chirp..."

The sharp and harsh sound made the army officers and soldiers very excited.

With the bombardment of rockets, their morale was high, and they rushed forward bravely to eliminate the remaining enemies.

"Grab it!"
