    ??

    The reason why he did this was because he felt that many of the newly formed Japanese divisions were new soldiers. Although they had received training for several months, they would not be able to grow into outstanding soldiers without being tempered by the flames of war.

    ¡°Get ready to attack!!¡±

    ??Xiangzu Meijiro glanced at Guderian and issued a combat order.

    After he gave the order, the Japanese troops began to take action.

    Their artillery unit also began to make final adjustments to the artillery at this time, aiming the muzzles at the two highlands in the distance.

    In the Japanese port of Dalian, the whistle of the transport ship echoed on the wide sea.

    Troops of a Japanese division have begun to line up and board the transport ship.

    They have been stationed around Dalian Port for some time, just waiting for the order to fight.

    At this time, Xiangzu Meijiro's order was issued, and they immediately headed for the designated location non-stop.

    This Japanese army will land in the north of Shanhaiguan, thus surrounding the enemy troops at the two highlands of 4033 and 4032, or even wiping them out.

    Not only that, it¡¯s to the west of the two highlands.

    The two Japanese brigades were also conducting roundabout operations in the mountains.

    Mountain combat is not what the Japanese army is best at, but after realizing the power of the Fourth Army's mountain combat, the Japanese Kwantung Army intentionally strengthened its troops' combat training in mountains.

    Now, many of their infantry units are also capable of conducting operations in mountainous areas.

    However, the Japanese Kwantung Army did not know that their every move at this time was being watched by Xia Yang's eyes.

    The information was quickly sent back. Xia Yang looked at the information passed back with a smile in his eyes.

    "The little devil's battle is huge. They are fighting in circuitous areas in the mountains, and the enemies on the seaside are also approaching us."

    Wei Xing said, with deep worry in his eyes.

    His troops were already on their way to Shanhaiguan, and he himself arrived here in advance.

    Xia Yang looked at the map and said: "The little devils have strengthened their mountain operations. Before, they were unwilling to go to the mountains because the logistics could not be guaranteed.

    Now they are better, they know how to learn from our strengths, they have made progress, and they are beginning to pay attention to mountain operations.

    "However, these little devils still haven't learned the essence of us.

    The key to roundabout operations in mountainous areas is that the action must be concealed and unexpected.

    ¡°The actions of their troops are all under our surveillance, and it is wishful thinking to still want to play the role of a surprise force in this process.  "

    "I see, this Guderian is obsessed with pincer offensives. We also engage in pincer offensives here.

    However, before they launched pincer offensives, they used armored units as the spearhead to pierce the defense line.

    But now, he no longer has those armored units, and can only use infantry to implement their pincer offensive from the mountains and the sea.  "

    Wei Xing said.

    "However, the effect is not very good. They want to cut off, divide, and surround, but in fact they are unable to do these at all.

    We have too many ways to support our brothers on the high ground.  "

    When Xia Yang heard what Wei Xing said, he pondered and said, "Don't take it lightly. This time the little devil came prepared and showed us some tricks.

    Those tricks hidden by the little devil have not been shown yet.  "

    While the two were talking, a muffled sound came from a distance and echoed in their ears.

    When the sound reached them, it was already very weak, but it still penetrated through the gap in the headquarters window and reached their ears.

    This made Wei Xing and Xia Yang frown slightly.

    However, they did not walk out of the headquarters, but looked at each other, and saw the same meaning in each other's eyes.

    "The little devil's attack has begun."

    "It's started, but judging from the noise, it's not very violent."

    Xia Yang said this, lit a cigarette, and walked towards the window.

    From here, he could clearly see smoke rising from the distant horizon.

    Dozens of kilometers away from them, Japanese artillery fire has covered the two highlands of 4033 and 4032.

    In the highlands, all the remaining steel pipes and the young grass sprouting have turned into theseThe victims of the raging fire were blown into the sky together with the charred soil, and then fell like hailstones.

    In the tunnel fortifications inside the highlands, the expressions on the faces of the soldiers were mostly solemn.

    But behind this solemnity, there is a certain calmness.

    A kind of calmness facing something familiar to oneself.

    For these veterans, everything happening in front of them is too familiar.

    Not to mention anything else, the Japanese bombing of them at this time was all within their expectations.

    Even according to their expectations, the Japanese bombardment should be more violent than this.

    The current Japanese artillery bombardment is much weaker than they had expected.

    Zhang Shugen yawned and said, "I see, this bombardment by the Japs is probably just a test to see how good we are."

    Luo Xinghe, who was next to him, said: "Listen to the noise, the artillery used by the little devil may not be as many as those used to deal with Wu Anyu before.

    The first attack is most likely just a tentative one. Tell the hidden firepower points not to fire.

    Only after you get my order can you fire.

    ¡°Also, tell the artillery troops behind Shanhaiguan that they don¡¯t need to provide fire support to us. We are fully confident to deal with this first round of Japanese attack.  "

    As Luo Xinghe said this, a confident smile appeared on his face.

    At this time, most of the other soldiers in the tunnel were silent, lowering their heads to check their weapons and ammunition, waiting for the slogan to start the battle.

    Some recruits saw that the veterans were so calm and relaxed, as if they were on an outing rather than a bloody battle.

    Therefore, they all kept their facial expressions calm and did not show the anxiety and uneasiness unique to recruits.

    Most of the soldiers of the Fourth Army stationed at these two highlands are veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles.

    As for the new recruits, the number is not large, less than a thousand.

    And even these one thousand people were added here after careful selection.

    Xia Yang knew that these two highlands were very important. If they could resist the Japanese army and delay their attack, they could provide necessary help for their rear troops to conduct large-scale roundabout operations.

    It is precisely because of these considerations that when selecting defensive troops, he always uses these troops with more veterans and better weapons and equipment.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
