    Although Okamura Neji¡¯s order was to fully support Anyang and Xingo, Kenkawa Heiichiro did not take this order to heart.

    He has already thought about it and is preparing for a long battle.

    At nine-thirty in the morning, Kenkawa Heiichiro's vanguard force, a reorganized regiment, had entered Dongling Town together with the artillery unit.

    A Japanese cavalry squadron detoured from both wings and conducted a general reconnaissance of the Airborne Division's defense in Dongling Town.

    One thing they can be sure of is that this enemy has no reinforcements or artillery.  They are basically infantry, with a very small amount of cavalry.

    This allowed the Japanese army to no longer have to worry about its attack on Dongling Town.

    Kentaro Tokura, a member of the 68th Regiment of the Japanese Army, used a telescope to look at the defense line composed of trenches and barbed wire built by the Airborne Division.

    Although this line of defense is simple, it has a very good defensive effect against large-scale infantry attacks and cavalry attacks.

    Within the defense line, you can still see a large number of civilians, busy with the soldiers of the Airborne Division.

    "They mobilized the common people, so the defense line was built very quickly." The staff officer next to him said to Kentaro Tokura.

    Kentaro Tokura nodded and said: "Yes, these Chinese are just unfamiliar dogs! How good we are to them, protecting their safety, but now they have turned around and helped these Chinese troops."

    ¡°After all, they are also Chinese people and cannot help us.¡± The staff officer said.

    Kentaro Tokura lit a cigarette with some depression, and then said: "I heard a long time ago that Xia Yang's troops are very powerful. Today I want to see how powerful they are. Order the troops and prepare for battle  !!At the same time, call the rear artillery to bombard the enemy's position with firepower."

    "Your Excellency, Wing Commander, I think we should not be in such a hurry. Our main force is still behind, and the enemy has a lot of troops. It is better for us to be more cautious." The staff officer said.

    But Kentaro Tokura did not change his arrogance.

    He had been in South China, fighting against the Kuomintang troops.  Later, he was transferred to the southeastern region of Shandong Province, where he conducted public security operations and encircled and suppressed the guerrillas of the New Fourth Army.

    After a period of time, although the guerrillas made him feel overwhelmed, he was always determined about one thing, that is, the guerrillas and the national army never dared to confront them head-on.

    As long as it is a frontal battle, Kentaro Tokura is fully confident that he can defeat any Chinese army.

    This confidence comes from his brilliant record on the battlefield in South China.

    He has never lost in more than thirty battles, large and small.

    "These guys are nothing more than a group of sheep with better weapons and equipment."

    After saying this, he took the cigarette butt and threw it to the ground.

    "Get ready for battle!!"

    His sharp voice echoed over the Japanese troops.

    The 68th Regiment of the Japanese Army began to prepare for combat before it had time to repair itself.

    This Japanese army is mentally exhausted.  But on the way here by train, I was repeatedly encouraged by Kentaro Tokura.

    This is a powerful force, but their 68th Regiment has never been defeated by the Chinese army in a frontal battle.

    Therefore, the existence of the Fourth Army made these Japanese troops who had been fighting in South China for a long time feel that they had encountered an opponent.

    The most discussed thing among the Japanese soldiers in this unit on the train was that the combat effectiveness of the Japanese troops in the North China Expeditionary Force was declining so quickly that they were repeatedly defeated by the Chinese army.

    "In fact, they even lost Shanxi, which they had already occupied.

    "The brother troops in North China boasted the Fourth Army to great heights. I think this is because of their long-term lack of training, which has led to a sharp decline in combat capabilities. Otherwise, how could the elite troops of our Imperial Japanese Army be defeated?  Where are those Chinese troops?¡±

    Before the attack started, Kentaro Tokura shouted in front of the soldiers.

    The Japanese soldiers also shouted one after another.

    "Defeat them and let them know how powerful our Imperial Japanese Army is!!"

    ¡°These Chinese troops are just a bunch of bugs!!¡±

      Those Japanese soldiers were shouting, as if they had already rushed to the airborne division's position and broke through their defense line.

    In Dongling Town, the two regiments of the Airborne Division, as well as the logistics force temporarily formed by ordinary people, are ready for battle.

    Liu Hong, commander of the Airborne Division, touched his increasingly white hair and looked at the Japanese troops in the distance.

    "A regiment of troops, but they seem to be launching an attack on our army before the main force arrives." said the Chief of Staff of the Airborne Division.

    Liu Hong looked solemn and said: "You are so arrogant! You really don't take our airborne division seriously."

    "Then let them suffer a little!" the chief of staff said, having already pulled out the pistol from his waist.

    Liu Hong snorted coldly: "A little pain is not enough. This time I will make them regret using such an attitude towards our airborne division."

    "What?" the chief of staff looked at Liu Hong strangely and asked.

    "Call the air force in the rear and hope that they will use bombers and fighter jets to bomb the Japanese camps. At the same time, order the troops to pay attention to the signal. When the green signal flare is launched, they will launch a counterattack against the Japanese army." Liu Hong ordered.

    "yes!!"

    The soldiers and civilians in Dongling Town all entered trenches to protect themselves from shelling.

    According to Liu Hong¡¯s understanding of the Japanese army, they will inevitably launch artillery bombardment before attacking.

    Sure enough, before the Japanese infantry troops advanced from three directions, the Japanese artillery troops began bombarding Dongling Town.

    Basically, the three brigades of the Japanese army were thrown into this attack by Kentaro Tokura.

    They attacked from three directions at the same time, hoping to break through the enemy's defense line as quickly as possible.

    This Japanese army did not take Xia Yang's troops seriously.

    The so-called ignorant people are fearless. These Japanese troops are still using the national army troops encountered in South China as a reference standard to measure the combat effectiveness of Xia Yang's troops.

    Soon, they will pay the due price for their ignorance and arrogance.

    Accompanied by the roar of artillery, the Japanese reinforcements from the Shandong area began their first battle with the Fourth Army.

    For this Japanese army, they will taste defeat for the first time after having been on the Chinese battlefield for several years.  And it was a disastrous failure.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
