Chapter 219: The Might of Thunder
Guo Xunqi grinned and said, "Brother Yu, give us an estimate."
"About when will the little devils launch their Landing Operation?"
"So we can make arrangements early."
Yu Hua held the Command Stick and pointed toward the Jinshanwei Sea Area.
"Gentlemen, according to tidal patterns."
"Every morning between five and six o'clock, the tide rises significantly."
"Therefore, I speculate that the little devils will arrive between five and six o'clock."
"Commander!"
"Hasegawa-kun, you decide."
"That is excellent; order the troops to storm the beach and land between five and six in the morning."
Because the Divisions in the hands of these two men had only just been formed back home.
On the Aircraft Carrier where Yanagawa Heisuke was, the main high-ranking officers of the Japanese Tenth Army were all gathered together.
Especially Tani Hisao, that old devil, who was simply arrogant, "Your Excellency, Commander."
Ushijima Sadao and Suematsu Shigaharu, however, did not dare to express themselves to Yanagawa Heisuke like Tani Hisao did.
The bombardment of the little devils' Naval Gun.
"Banzai!"
"According to the meteorological department's calculations, the tide will rise significantly between five and six in the morning."
A large number of planes arrived over Jinshanwei.
He had no choice but to grit his teeth and agree.
Everyone had to suppress their excitement about fighting the devils.
"Use this to cover the landing of the follow-up troops."
Now, quite a lot of it had been bombed and collapsed by the devils' planes.
"I hope that when you report back to me in five hours."
"Hai..." the little devils all lowered their heads in response.
The Jinshanwei Coastal Defense Works had basically been destroyed.
Zhao Gongming grinned and said, "Thank goodness!"
In the sky!
Hasegawa Kiyoshi smiled slightly: "Yanagawa-kun, you are too worried."
"Upon arriving in the Songhu Region, my 6th Division will still be the same."
He grinned and said: "Yanagawa-kun!"
If they were to go head-to-head with the devils, the Sichuan Army would truly suffer a great loss.
After the Sichuan Army arrived, they had reinforced it again.
Hearing Hasegawa Kiyoshi's cold tone, Yanagawa Heisuke could only swallow his pride.
"The Republic of China Army is nothing but a motley crew."
"Rest well so that we can fight the devils later."
"Fleet, bombard Jinshanwei!"
They patted their chests one after another, assuring Yanagawa Heisuke.
Tani Hisao, Kunisaki Noboru, as well as Suematsu Shigaharu and Ushijima Sadao, these few old devils.
"This time period is very suitable for the Imperial Army's Transport Ship to penetrate deep into the Jinshanwei sea area."
"Otherwise, if a Regiment of brothers had gone in, I reckon only a Platoon would be left now."
"The fleet firing at full power to bombard Jinshanwei is purely a waste of the Imperial Army's shells."
The roar of the planes was like thunder tearing through the sky.
"I ask that you consider the Imperial Army's Holy War and let the fleet fire at full power."
Now the Japanese Tenth Army had chosen to launch their landing from here.
But, thinking that he was in the Army, he could not interfere with the Navy.
Of the fifty planes, only four were Fighter Plane, and the rest were all Bomber.
These little devils' planes were truly damn powerful.
The little devils' first wave of planes consisted of a full fifty aircraft.
However, the Republic of China Air Force still had twenty or thirty Hawk Fighter that could fly.
The devils' fleet in the Hangzhou Bay sea area.
"During this period, we need to transport as large a volume of troops as possible."
"These Jinshanwei Coastal Defense Works have already been bombed and collapsed quite a bit."
"Gentlemen!"
After Hasegawa Kiyoshi received the call from Yanagawa Heisuke.
Yu Hua, Guo Xunqi, and the others were also secretly observing the little devils.
Speaking of this, Yanagawa Heisuke looked at his Wristwatch.
Inside the Tenth Army command post, the little devils were all waving their hands.
Upon hearing this, Yanagawa Heisuke's gaze sharpened, "Yosh."
"Chief of Staff, rest assured."
As for these four Fighter Plane, they were also sent by Yanagawa Heisuke just to be safe.
Time passed second by second!
Five o'clock in the morning!
"Along the Jinshanwei line, Republic of China Army forces are very sparse."
"The Imperial Army has already routed the Republic of China Army and successfully taken their positions."
"Fine!"
Outside the town of Jinshanwei!
Putting down the Command Stick, "So!"
"Even the Coastal Defense Works were built long ago; there are simply no new Field Works."
The little devils' bombers, carrying 500-kilogram Aerial Bombs, conducted twenty minutes of bombing on the key town of Jinshanwei.
"Banzai!! ——"
"Chief of Staff!"
Jinshanwei!
This key coastal defense town, built during the Ming Dynasty, was used back then to guard against the Japanese pirates.
"Gentlemen!" His gaze swept across the command room.
"My 6th Division swept through the Pingjin Region and fought across the world without a single rival."
Hearing this, Yanagawa Heisuke was all smiles, "Yoshi!"
The remaining generals of the Sichuan Army, upon seeing this, also had lingering fears.
"There are still nearly five hours until morning."
Yanagawa Heisuke issued the order to attack.
After receiving the news, Yanagawa Heisuke immediately contacted the commander of the Navy fleet.
Upon hearing this, Yanagawa Heisuke felt ten minutes was far too short a time.
"We are the same; lead the Imperial Army to rout the Republic of China Army as quickly as possible."
Wang Dadan saw the Coastal Defense Works of Jinshanwei being destroyed by the little devils' airplanes.
"Adjutant Yu did not let us enter the positions just now."
"These little devils' airplanes are just too formidable, aren't they?"
"Advance and outflank along the Taihu Region!"
"What time period is most suitable to launch a Landing Operation?"
Once the Imperial Army goes ashore, they will surely slaughter the Republic of China Army until they are in total disarray.
"Imperial resources are tight; I think the fleet only needs to use half its firepower."
"A single regiment dares to chase and fight one or two divisions of the 1st Group Army under Liu Zhi of the First War Zone."
After the devil airplanes finished bombing!
The lead plane of the formation began to order a return.
"Weng weng weng!! ——"
Furthermore, the Army and the Navy could never get along in the first place.
Although he knew that Air Superiority over Songhu had already been seized by the Imperial airplanes.
Hearing Yu Hua say this, the Sichuan Army generals of the 144th Division finally suppressed their excited hearts.
"Your Excellency Commander!"
After hanging up the phone, Hasegawa Kiyoshi had the fleet use half its firepower to shell the key town of Jinshanwei.
Hearing Yanagawa Heisuke call his name, Tanabe Moritake immediately stood up.
"There is only ten minutes of time; I won't agree to any more."
If they encountered Hawk Fighters in the sky, the bombers would certainly be no match.
Next, the fleet should conduct saturation shelling.
All their actions were the same as the Wonu of the past.
The little devils' Naval Aviation had a large number of airplanes begin to take off from the Aircraft Carrier.
At the same time!
"We still have four or five hours of rest time now."
"Everyone, let the troops have a good rest first."
"According to the news sent by my Naval Aviation."
At the same time, the little devils' airplanes used radio to contact the fleet.
The Coastal Defense Works of Jinshanwei were still built back when guarding against the Wonu, using blue bricks, sticky rice, and other materials.
"Ensure that in the shortest amount of time, we transport a large number of troops ashore to establish a Beachhead Position."
Just how is the combat effectiveness of the newly formed division?!
Suematsu Shigaharu and Ushijima Sadao had no confidence at all in their hearts.
This earth-shaking sound truly frightened quite a few Sichuan Army generals.
"This matter is settled."
He was also shocked in his heart!
"My goodness!"
They bombed the former Coastal Defense Works of Jinshanwei!
However, the two of them still expressed their stance to Yanagawa Heisuke.
"Dispatch troops to launch a Landing Operation toward the Jinshanwei Sea Area."
Yu Hua really did not want to waste any more breath on the people from the Navy.
It would still be four or five hours before they could see the Japanese devils.
The Japanese devil infantry hadn't even advanced yet, and the fortifications had already collapsed quite a bit.
"Defeat the Republic of China Army in the Jinshanwei region."
"Hasegawa-kun, ten minutes it is then."
"In this battle, our Imperial Army shall strike with the force of a thunderbolt."
It was everyone's first time seeing the whistling of the Navy's Naval Guns.
Isn't this commotion a bit too loud?!
