In Zhangjia Town, on the north bank of the Taizi River, groups of Japanese soldiers marched on foot, and a team of more than 20,000 people marched north along the South Manchurian Railway.

The commander of the 20th Division, Kaneji Murao, stood at the foot of a high slope, looking at the fighter planes of the Shina people hovering in the sky, and his heart could not calm down for a long time.

When did the people of China on the other side of the sea also have such advanced fighters? Why had they not been captured at the Mukden airfield before?

When he heard that the Changchun's army had many advanced fighters and tanks, and that the three brigades of the Army Aviation and the second brigade of the tanks had been completely annihilated, he inquired about the list of seizures when he captured the Mukden Arsenal, and did not find information on the advanced fighters and tanks on it.

The answer seems to be on the horizon.

The red empire in the north seems to be a haze that has always pressed on the Yamato soldiers, even if they were defeated twenty-seven years ago, but now that almost thirty years have passed, Lucia must have changed a lot.

"Your Excellency Division Commander!" a shout came from behind him, and Murokenji looked back to see his chief of staff, Koji Koyama, hurrying over with a telegram. 457

Koji Koyama bowed and said eagerly: "Your Excellency the division commander!

"Nani!" The sudden news made Murokanji froze for a moment, frowned slightly, and said strangely: "Haven't they been defeated by the Shina army and then retreated to the train station in Lighthouse County?"

It was precisely because of this that the Lushun General Headquarters sent an urgent telegram to his 20th Division to support the 8th Division, while the 19th Division, which was besieged in Fengtian City further north, was afraid that it was already more than lucky.

"Your Excellency the division commander, the Chinese army launched a chariot unit assault on the railway station defense line of the Eighth Division, and easily broke through the defense line of the Eighth Division, and now, the Eighth Division has been defeated, the division commander Xiyi is missing, more than 20,000 people are fleeing in all directions, the telegram is the 8th Engineer Wing, and the other wings are currently only in contact with the 8th Wing and the 4th War Hospital.

Koji Koyama lowered his head after saying the information heavily.

Room Kanji couldn't calm down for a long time, and his face was gloomy.

The Eighth Division, also known as the Hirosaki Division, was one of the six divisions formed by the Japanese army after the end of the First Sino-Japanese War.

Now he has been defeated twice in a row! and he was beaten by the Chinese army in a street battle in the town!

"If you count it up, the people of the northern China have already defeated our three divisions?" said Murojiji suddenly.

Koji Koyama nodded: "Yes, Your Excellency the division commander, including the Second Division, the Nineteenth Division of Changchun, plus the current Eighth Division, our three divisions have been defeated......"

It's not that I don't know, but I'm shocked, even if he is already a lieutenant general, he can't help but swallow his saliva.

"Order the troops to stop advancing! Immediately build a defensive line!" ordered Muroji, in a loud voice.

"Hai!" Koji Koyama didn't dare to slack off, and immediately went to do so with a few staff officers.

Soon, more than 20,000 people from four infantry wings, one cavalry wing, and one field artillery wing of the 20th Division of the Japanese Army stopped advancing to the north and began to spread out defensive positions in the area around Zhangjiazhen on the north bank of the Taizi River.

Not only that, but considering that the enemy troops were all chariot units and the speed of the assault was fast, he immediately ordered the 9th Infantry Wing and the 80th Infantry Wing under the 40th Infantry Brigade closest to the railway bridge to quickly move towards the south bank of the Taizi River, and the 26th Field Artillery Wing also immediately crossed the river to build artillery on the south bank

If the 39th Brigade in the north is lost, an army will block the north of the Taizi River!

Because the Murokanji who came from Yingkou is very clear, except for the Kanto continent in the south...... There are no more large-scale army garrisons!

The sound of artillery from the north became more and more sparse, and the fighters, sensing the Japanese movement, began to dive and fire one after another, harassing the Japanese deployment positions.

This made Murokanji stick to the plan in his heart, and going north to encounter the chariot troops on the endless plains was the most fishy! He must not make the same mistake as Nishiichi!

However, in order to better understand the situation in the north, Murokanji also sent a thousand cavalry of the 28th Cavalry Wing to disperse to the north, with small teams and units, if they encounter the Chinese army, they will mainly come back safely to pass on information!

An hour later, the position was basically completed, and although it was only the simplest position, relying on the 150-meter-wide Taizi River and the railway bridge, Murokanji was confident that he could stop the army that had defeated his three divisions here!

At 4:50 p.m., only half of the cavalry wing that had been sent out returned, and the people who saw it were heartbroken.

But the information he got also made him more anxious.

The Eighth Division has been completely defeated, and the Northeast Plain is full of the remnants of the Eighth Division, which have been chased and crushed by the extremely fast tank units of the Chinese people, countless soldiers have laid down their weapons and knelt on the ground to surrender, and few of the Eighth Division can escape here.

At five o'clock in the afternoon of January 30, the positions constructed by the 20th Division welcomed the first batch of defeated troops.

The Sugida Brigade of the 17th Infantry Wing of the Eighth Division, a brigade, had less than two hundred people left.

"Your Excellency the Commander of the Division!" Yuichi Sugita did not expect that it would be the commander of the Twentieth Division, Murokanji, who greeted them, and bowed his head in shame.

Seeing that this defeated army of 200 people was disgraced, and even brought a dozen wounded soldiers, Murokanji sighed: "You guys go down and rest well, don't be discouraged! I have no cowards with the imperial soldiers!"

"Hai!" Sugita Yu shouted loudly: "Please give us a chance, Your Excellency the Division Commander! We want to regain the honor of the Eighth Division! Even if we fight here!"

Listening to his accent with a bit of Akita Prefecture country dialect, and looking at his resolute eyes, Murokenji seemed to think of his younger samurai brother, nodded, and said to a staff officer, "Take them to the south bank." "

Then he turned his head to Sugida Yu: "There is an old saying in Shina, sharpening a knife is not a mistake for a woodcutter, take a rest first, and then a fierce battle, you should be ready to fight at any time." "

"Haiy, thank you, Your Excellency, Commander!"

Yuichi Sugida followed the staff officer with the remnants of his troops.

"What a good soldier, even on the way to escape, he tried to bring wounded soldiers and weapons and equipment as much as possible. Room Kanji sighed.

Suddenly, he frowned, and felt that something was wrong, this defeated army seemed to have a complete set of weapons, but ...... Can you run so fast in a rout, and can you carry such perfect weapons and equipment?

"Your Excellency the Division Commander! The Chinese army has appeared!" a shout made Murokanji give up what he had just thought about and immediately rushed to the front line.

On the Tohoku Plains, the dust is shouting, and even if they are a few kilometers apart, Murokanji can see those fast-moving tanks with the naked eye!

"What a speed!" Murokenji took a breath of cold air, he had also seen the training of the tank brigade, but he had never seen such a high-speed tank.

"Order the troops to prepare for battle!" Murokenji ordered.

Bang! Bang!

Da Da

Boom! Boom!

Suddenly, a rapid burst of gunfire and grenade explosions rang out, and Murokenji said angrily, "Which unit is shooting!"

At such a distance, and the troops under him are not recruits, how can they not know when to shoot?

But then, Murokanji realized that something was wrong, the sound of gunfire and explosions...... It looks like it's coming from behind.

The soldiers on the front line also seemed to notice it, and they all looked left and right.

"The division commander is not good!" Koji Koyama ran from the rear, panicked, and gasped for breath: "Yuichi Sugita has defected! With more than 200 people attacking the railway bridge!"

"Nani !!" was stunned, his expression changed suddenly, and his eyes were hideous!
