my bright sword career

The violent explosion was so loud that even the Dongzhimen headquarters a few kilometers away could hear it clearly.

Lieutenant General Miyajima Yongtaro, head of the 110th Division, stood at the entrance of the command department and looked at Xiaogushan covered in thick smoke with a solemn expression.

Seeing Miyajima Yongtaro's frown, the chief of staff took a step forward and comforted him: "Your Excellency, Commander, Kasai Masahiro is an excellent regiment commander, and he will definitely be able to defend Xiaogushan."

"Is that so, I hope so?" Miyajima Yongtaro said lightly, but there was no relief in the frown that was tightly furrowed.

The chief of staff also knew that even children might not believe what he said.

Judging from the degree of shelling by the Chinese, it is at least the size of an artillery regiment, and all of them are heavy artillery with a caliber of 100 mm or more.

Coupled with the bombers circling in the sky, trying to defend Xiaogushan with the troops at hand by Kasai Masahiro is tantamount to nonsense.

But what can he say? You must know that the 110th Division is not only defending a place in Dongzhimen, but also a large area in the city. Lieutenant General Eitaro Miyajima has the courage to send an infantry regiment to defend Xiaogushan. up.

It's just that Eitaro Miyajima didn't expect that the 79th United, which he had placed high hopes on, would show signs of collapse after only one day of persistence, which made him doubt Neiji Okamura's judgment.

In the face of such a powerful combined air-ground attack, can Taiyuan City really be defended?

"Buzzing..."

Just when Miyajima Yongtaro was worried, there was a sudden low roar in the sky. Out of the sensitivity of soldiers, Miyajima Yongtaro looked towards the sky in the direction of the sound and found that it was flying from the northwest direction. an airplane.

The plane was flying towards Taiyuan, and the huge fuselage was still clearly reflected in everyone's eyes even though it was thousands of meters away.

"This... This is the heavy bomber of the Chinese people. Where is it going to bomb?"

Seeing this huge bomber, Eitaro Miyajima was taken aback. Heavy bombers have always been known for their huge bomb load and long range. Now this heavy bomber is near his home, no matter who he is, he will feel trembling.

"Could it be that they are heading for the west gate or the south gate?"

When Miyajima Yongtaro was thinking wildly, suddenly a plane left the formation and flew towards him. As the plane got closer, the figure of the plane became bigger and bigger.

At this time, there were sparse gunshots on the ground one after another. It was the air defense forces firing, but the Japanese army's ground air defense firepower was all tears.

It stands to reason that it is standard for Western armies to equip each division or even regiment-level unit with an air defense unit.

At the beginning, the Japanese army was no exception. They equipped each brigade level and above with an air defense brigade or even a wing.

But with the passage of time, Japan found that the Chinese people on the opposite side were too poor, not to mention the planes, and even saw few sparrows.

In this way, the status of these expensive air defense forces is a bit embarrassing.

Let's continue to maintain the existence of this army, let's not talk about the money, but this army that has cost a lot of money rarely fires a single shot all year round. The hearts of the Japanese are really painful.

As the war progressed, the national army's aircraft were almost consumed. When it was difficult to see the national army's aircraft in the sky, the Japanese finally decided to withdraw all the air defense units attached to the divisions and brigades. There were only a few standing divisions. This position is still reserved, but unfortunately, 110 does not belong to this sequence, and the huge division has only one air defense brigade.

Just when Yongtaro Miyajima was panicking, he saw a black object suddenly fell off from the belly of the huge plane and fell towards Xiaogushan.

"boom!"

The Japanese soldiers on Xiaogu Mountain only felt the ground shaking. Even the Japanese soldiers hiding in the air-raid shelter could see the dust flying from the roof of the bomb-proof shelter.

Commander Yang, who was three kilometers away from Xiaogu Mountain, could hardly believe his eyes when he saw a huge cloud of yellow smoke rising up to one kilometer into the air a few kilometers away. Staring at the yellow mushroom cloud in disbelief, he muttered to himself, "My dear!"

In fact, it was not just the Japanese soldiers on Xiaogushan, even Miyajima Eitaro, who was several kilometers away from Xiaogushan, felt that the mountain was shaking for a while, and the ground under his feet was also shaking.

The entire city wall was also swaying non-stop, and flying stones like raindrops accompanied by billowing smoke instantly enveloped the city gate tower.Eitaro Miyajima sat down on the ground.

"Your Excellency, Commander... Your Excellency..."

The chief of staff at the side saw his head of the division suddenly fall down, he panicked and rushed forward to help him up.

"Cough, cough."

Miyajima Eitaro, who was coughing violently due to the dust and smoke all over the sky, stood up desperately from the ground.

"Quick... immediately order all Dongzhimen troops to withdraw into the city, Dongzhimen... Dongzhimen can't take it anymore!"

The Chief of Staff was shocked when he heard the words: "Ah... Your Excellency, Division Commander, what if you blame the Commander for doing this?"

"Commander Okamura, if you want to blame him, you can blame me."

Miyajima Yongtaro's attitude was resolute with a hint of bitterness, "Just now the Chinese people dropped a super-heavy bomb, I estimate it weighed at least three or four tons, such a powerful bomb dropped, do you think the emperor on Xiaogushan Can the army survive?

If you want to survive, retreat into the city. There are still tens of thousands of Chinese people in Taiyuan City today, which means that they will not throw bombs at Taiyuan City. "

The chief of staff stopped talking. An explosion of the most common grenade can cause harm to people in a radius of more than ten or twenty meters, not to mention the explosion of a three to four ton super heavy bomb weighing several tons.

In fact, Miyajima's guess was correct.

The bomb that fell was exactly the giant bomb nicknamed "Goblet Bomb" studied by the British in another time and space.

The bomb weighs 5443 kilograms, is 6.4 meters long with fins, and has a maximum diameter of 0.965 meters. It is filled with 2 kilograms of aluminum powder-D359 explosives.

Needless to say the power, it was just this one that was thrown at the top of Xiaogu Mountain just now.

The explosion of this bomb alone sent the remaining Japanese troops in Xiaogushan to the west, and then the 686 regiment occupied Xiaogushan almost like a march.

As expected by Eitaro Miyajima, after occupying Xiaogu Mountain, those Chinese people did not stop at all, but came directly towards Dongzhimen. Judging from their posture, they probably wanted to take down Dongzhimen in one fell swoop.

Miyajima Yongtaro gave the order to retreat on the spot. Today's Dongzhimen can no longer be defended by relying on reinforcements or artillery support. Now the best way is to withdraw into Taiyuan City and mix with the common people. As long as Gao Hongming If he wasn't crazy, he wouldn't dare to throw bombs at the heads of his own people.
