    On the 22nd, gunfire rose again in Baocheng.  The Northeastern Army and the Japanese Army, both of which had received reinforcements, gathered their strength and fought again inside and outside Baocheng.  The artillery units of both sides bombarded the other side's charging troops and guarding positions with all their strength. The overwhelming crimson trajectory of the artillery shells criss-crossed in the air like a huge bloody net. The fighter groups of both sides fought fiercely in the air, and some planes clung to the hillside.  The forest swooped, and the treetops were broken by the strong wind stirred up by the wings; the bombers of the two armies carried out "carpet" bombings on the other side's positions; the light and heavy machine guns and the tanks of both sides roared together. After the wave of desperate fighting, Bao Bao  The city was a sea of ??corpses and blood, and several main streets and thoroughfares were filled and blocked by burning chariot wreckage and corpses.  The entire city was in shambles. The saplings, roads and newly built buildings that the local government of Baoshan County, South Korea Province had worked hard to plant in the city were destroyed beyond recognition by artillery and aviation from both sides, and all collapsed and collapsed.

    During the fierce battle, Wang Tiehan, commander of the 620th Regiment of the 107th Division, ordered: "Advance at any cost! Break through the Japanese positions with all your strength!" He took the lead and led the troops at the front of the regiment to attack and kill fiercely. The tanks of the armored forces were unstoppable and destroyed one by one.  The Japanese army fortified the bunker; some Japanese troops were nesting on the roof of the floor and fired fiercely from high above. The officers and soldiers used mortars to fight back. The artillerymen of the mortar squad did not use the gun mounts at all, but held the gun barrel with their hands and fired while advancing; several Air Force fighter planes  They also flew in to assist in strafing houses with Japanese firepower. The officers and soldiers made rapid progress and charged bravely.  During the attack, two of Wang Tiehan's guards were killed in the battle to protect him. Wang Tiehan himself suffered three minor injuries. After being simply bandaged, he still insisted on leading the charge. During the attack, a shell exploded a few meters away from him, and shrapnel hit him.  The steel helmet was almost to the point of breaking through.  The officers and soldiers launched a fierce offensive, using explosive packets and cluster grenades to destroy the dotted Japanese bunker fortifications, and gradually invaded the hinterland of the Japanese-occupied area.

    At noon, the Japanese army's position was crumbling under the fierce attack of the Northeast Army. Major General Moritaka Nakaji, commander of the Japanese 3rd Flying Division, sent more than a dozen aircraft to drop poison gas bombs on the charging Northeast Army.  Suddenly, the corrosive mixed chlorine gas rose up and floated among the Northeastern Army. The poisoned officers and soldiers fell down one after another with foaming at the mouth, and the Japanese army took the opportunity to counterattack.

    Feng Zhanhai, who was watching the battle from a distance, suddenly became furious and shouted sternly: "Order the Air Force bombing brigade to throw incendiary bombs at the Japanese army!"

    Today, more than a dozen zh-2a light bombers of the Northeast Army Air Force immediately appeared in the sky over Baocheng with murderous intent. With the roar of bombs falling, batches of orange-red sulfur incendiary bombs were dropped on the Japanese troops.  In the explosion, dragons roared, flames shone, and the mountains trembled. The Japanese soldiers hiding in the trenches were burned to death and suffered severe burns.  After being "inspired", the Japanese aviation forces immediately threw incendiary bombs, which were more powerful and lethal than poison gas bombs, at the Northeastern Army positions.  The dense rain of incendiary bombs from both sides immediately engulfed half of the treasure city in a sea of ??flames, burning trees, grass and houses. The sky was filled with flames licking the sky, and the air was filled with the pungent smell of gunpowder smoke and the stench of burnt meat.  The number of people burned to death by the Northeastern Army also increased sharply. In addition, the Japanese army resisted fiercely and refused to give up an inch of ground. The fierce fighting lasted until 1:00 pm. The offensive of the 118th Division and the 620th Regiment was blocked and they only advanced less than one kilometer in the city. Corpses were everywhere in the city.  The casualties were huge, and the battle was in a stalemate.

    "It's really a hard nut to crack!" In the 118th Division command post, Feng Zhanhai threw the marking pencil on the map and looked at this place like a fish bone stuck in his neck with hatred.  "Report! A suspicious person has been caught! He may be a Japanese spy!" the guard hurried in and reported.  spy?  Feng Zhanhai was confused, "Bring him in."

    An old man dressed as a mountain man was timidly brought in by two guards with a cloth bag in his arms. After seeing Feng Zhanhai's distinctive officer uniform, he knew that he was a high-ranking official and hurriedly gesticulated and started chattering,  All he said was Korean.  Feng Zhanhai couldn't understand it at all, and there was no translator around him who could speak Korean, so he immediately asked the guards to find two Korean soldiers from the army who could speak Chinese to act as translators.

    After listening to the old farmer's story, the two Korean soldiers quickly said: "Report to the division commander, this fellow said that he is a local mountain man. When he just went up the mountain to collect medicine, he found a lot of Japanese on the pine forest slope of Qiu Mountain! There were hundreds of them!  So I rode a mule and came to report."

    Feng Zhanhai was taken aback. He stood up and rushed to the map. He stared at it for a long time and nodded: "This kid Tokusei Suzuki wants to attack me from behind!" He turned around and ordered, "Immediately ask the 570th Regiment to allocate a battalion to the pine forest.  Po blocks the attack! At the same time, he telegraphs the 4th Bomb Group to dispatch aircraft for bombing!" When giving the order, Feng Zhanhai secretly cursed himself for being confused.  At this time, because the Japanese army in Baocheng was too fierce, almost all the security forces responsible for defending the rear were deployed by themselves. Unexpectedly, Suzuki Tokusei could allocate another brigade to sneak attack on his rear at this time when the troops were stretched thin and the war was tight. Tsk tsk,  It is estimated that this is the last reserve force of the Japanese army.  Although hundreds of Japs are notThe minister came over slowly and said softly.

    Hirohito¡¯s heart skipped a beat, and a bad feeling came over him for no reason.  After a short pause, Hirohito hesitated and said: "Call."

    Prince Fushimi Miyahiro Ky¨­ge, a member of the royal family and chief of the Naval Command, Chief of Japanese Military Staff, Field Marshal Gen Sugiyama, and Minister of War, Army General Hideki Tojo came quickly. Tojo and Sugiyama prostrated themselves in mourning.  Weeping: "Your Majesty I have fulfilled your Majesty's holy orders I have come here to plead guilty and be punished"

    The suspicion in Hirohito's heart was suddenly confirmed, and he trembled: "What is going on?"

    "Your Majesty Hojo Castle fell again last night The Imperial Army's Suzuki Detachment and Ohno Regiment both fought bloody battles until all their loyalty was shattered They were unable to stop the Manchurian Army's attack" Hideki Tojo lamented as if he were mourning his concubine.

    Hirohito's heart was tight. He had been paying attention to the landing campaign in South Korea. Boseong was the main offensive route from the Gaoxing Peninsula to the interior of North Korea. Its importance is self-evident.  For the past three days, Hirohito had been paying attention to the war in Baocheng without sleeping or eating, but what he was waiting for was still the worst outcome. How could he not be sad.  In Hirohito's heart, he had to begin to accept the fact that on land, the Japanese army was no longer a match for the Northeast Army.

    After sighing for a moment, Hirohito asked in a calm tone: "It is said that the Northeast Army's army, navy and air force are very tenacious in fighting?"

    Prince Fushimi Miya Hiroyao, who served as the chief of the Naval Command Department, gave a wry smile: "Brother Hui, it's like this. Under the fierce attack of the Imperial Navy's large-caliber naval guns, the enemy's entire company and entire battalion were often destroyed. Among them, the enemy's 29th  Most of the brigade had been wiped out by the Imperial Navy, but the enemy troops on land still fought back fiercely regardless of casualties. Their bravery and sacrifice spirit were not inferior to that of the Imperial Army, which made it difficult for the Imperial Army to make progress. Its Manchurian Army Navy surface ships  Although unable to resist the imperial giant ships, they fought tooth and nail with aviation and submarines several times. Several battleships of the Imperial Navy were severely damaged, and two destroyers and dozens of transport ships were sunk During the Baocheng Raiders, due to important waterways,  Due to the dense mines laid by the Manchurian Army and the activeness of its submarine force, the Imperial Navy had little impact on the treasure city strategy" Prince Fushimi Miyahiro Kyo's voice became lower and lower.

    "Then the enemy is already advancing towards the Happy Peninsula now, right?"

    "Your Majesty, yes. General Tada is organizing troops to defend. The terrain of the peninsula is conducive to the Imperial Navy rushing to support the army, so there will be no mistakes." Tojo Hideki said respectfully.

    Hirohito was silent for a long time, and suddenly said calmly: "Let General Tada and General Yamamoto withdraw their troops."

    Everyone was shocked. This order was undoubtedly the last chance to give up the plan to return to North Korea.  But Hirohito did not explain any more, but stood up and walked slowly to the inner palace.

    Although the Emperor of Japan is only nominally the supreme commander of the Japanese army and does not hold real power, Hirohito's "holy metaphor" is still very weighty.  On October 24, just as the Northeast Army of South Korea was making full efforts to attack the Gaoxing Peninsula, the Japanese military ordered the Japanese army and navy to withdraw in full, and the Gaoxing Peninsula was directly handed back to the Northeast Army; by October 25, North Korea and China  The war situation in Japan returned to the state before October 10.  There were more than 10,000 casualties but nothing was gained. The Japanese army's large-scale landing and counterattack in Korea came to an end with the attention of all parties around the world.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
