The headquarters of the 30th Army is located in Daiwu, on the west bank of the Xidang River, which is also a midpoint station on the railway line from Yangon to Mandalay, northern Myanmar.

As soon as he returned to the headquarters, Wang Lingji convened four division commanders, including Gao Fengqi, Xia Chengwu, Ding Xiyao, and Lu Yukun, as well as four deputy division commanders, including Yan Jueshi, Liu Yimin, Yang Youquan, and Li Ruqian, for a meeting.

Wang Lingji is stubborn and has always been arrogant, especially with his subordinates.

"Damn it, I don't care what wish Wang Geng made for you, whether it's food or salary or organization, you must understand a basic fact." Wang Lingji patted his chest and shouted, "I am the commander-in-chief of the 30th Army, and your immediate superior!"

"Don't think about it."

"If you are honest and obedient, then everything is easy to say."

"If you dare to hook up with someone on your back, I will remove you from your post!"

"No, just dismissal is not enough. I will definitely send you to the military court!"

It was really scared for more than ten minutes before Wang Lingji sent Gao Fengqi and the others away.

After leaving the gate of the headquarters, eight division commanders and deputy division commanders got on the bus and returned to their respective division commands.

As soon as Gao Fengqi, the commander of the new 13th Division, got on the jeep, asked his deputy commander Yan Jueshi: "Brother Jueshi, what do you think about this command dispute?"

Yan Jue said in a careful manner: "In theory, the commander of the war zone crossed the Army Command and directly commanded our divisions, which was indeed inappropriate."

"But then again, Chief of Staff Wang made such a decision, which was helpless."

"This old guy Wang Lingji has no ability. It is absolutely difficult for him to command this battle."

"Leave it to the Chief Officer to command it. At least I have the chance, and I have no doubt about Chief Zhong's ability."

Gao Fengqi nodded and said, "Brother Jueshi, you and I have thought about it together. In short, no matter how Wang Lingji finds trouble afterwards, even if we are really dismissed from the two of us, we must strictly order the Chief Executive Officer's Office in this battle, otherwise Xidanghe would not be able to defend it."

While the two were talking, there was a sudden thunder outside the car.

A shell landed not far from the jeep, and the air waves generated by the explosion came violently, almost overturning the jeep they were riding on to the ground.

So the driver is an old car soldier and tried his best to control it.

When they opened the door and got out of the car, Gao Fengqi and Yan Jueshi saw that their new 13th Division's beach position on the west bank of the Xidang River had been blown into a sea of ​​fire by the Japanese artillery group!

"Son of the Turtle, the Japanese are starting to attack!"

"Damn it, the Japanese cannon group must be."

Looking at the new 13th Division position that was already in a sea of ​​fire in front of him, Gao Fengqi and Yan Jueshi were both worried and envious. Only two guards jumped out of the truck following behind, and pulled the two of them to hide without saying a word.

...

At this moment, the commander of the 1st Division of the Guards, Kiyoji Sasaki, also came to the front-line observation post of the Japanese army and observed the effect of the shelling through a telescope.

During this shelling, the 1st Guard Division gathered hundreds of cannons of all sizes!

Even though it was seven or eight kilometers away, and even if there was a tindon river in the middle, Kiyoji Sasaki could clearly feel the vibration of the ground beneath his feet.

This shows the destructive power of the shelling!

"Yo Xi!" Sasaki Kiyoji nodded with satisfaction.

Seiichi Yamada, chief of staff of the 1st Division of the Guards, also said: "Secretary Commander, the simple fortifications built by the China Army on the other side cannot bear the strength of such artillery attacks."

"If nothing unexpected happens, the fortifications of the Chinese Army will be plowed all over!"

"There are also casualties of the Chinese army, and they will definitely be severe!"

"Yes." Sasaki Kiyoji nodded lightly and said, "But even so, we should not be careless. Through the battles of Shidang City and Paben and Dakun, it can be seen that the Chinese army in Myanmar this time expedition can be said to be very resilient and more tenacious than any Chinese army we have encountered before!"

"That's for sure." Yamada Seiichi Hayi said once, "The Imperial Army never underestimates any opponent."

While the two of them were talking, ten minutes passed, and the artillery fire of the Japanese artillery group began to extend further and fire further away.

More than fifty fishing boats that had been on standby on the east bank of the Xidang River for a long time, the gunboats immediately rushed to the west bank of the Xidang River. On the more than 100 fishing boats and gunboats, Japanese infantry were filled with them.

...

Guo Yuan is a rocketer in the 1st Company and 1st Platoon of the 1st Battalion of the New 13th Division.

When the Japanese army was bombarded, Guo Yuan and his two ammunition hands hid in a solid anti-aircraft hole, which was dug on the back of a hill, which was very safe.

Therefore, other positions were plowed over and over by Japanese artillery fire.

However, Guo Yuan's team, who was hiding in the mountain back anti-aircraft artillery hole, was unscathed.

There are several other groups as unscathed as Guo Yuan's group.

Gao Fengqi, the commander of the new 13th Division, knew very well that whether the Japanese army could stop crossing the river, the use of the rocket launcher was crucial!

Their new 13th Division and even the entire 30th Army would not be able to obtain artillery support, at least not during the day, so the bazooka was the only "heavy weapon" they could rely on!

Although machine guns can kill and injure the Japanese on the ship, they cannot destroy the ship.

Only rockets fired by the bazooka can destroy the Japanese ferry ships.

Guo Yuan looked outside through the anti-cannon hole entrance, and everything he saw was full of smoke.

The smoke from gunpowders fired by the Japanese army almost covered the entire position.

The Japanese artillery bombardment lasted for about ten minutes, and the sound of the explosion gradually faded away. Then, a harsh police whistle sounded from the position. It was the police whistle that was warning and the Japanese were crossing the river!

Guo Yuan immediately rushed out of the anti-aircraft shelter with two ammunition hands and quickly entered the frontier position.

Guo Yuan and his two ammunition players dug more than a dozen positions on the frontier positions. When they entered the frontier positions, they found that most positions had been destroyed. It looked like they had just been trampled on by tens of thousands of bisons, and they were completely unable to provide cover for them.

Fortunately, there are several positions that are kept intact.

Guo Yuan quickly led his team members into one of the positions.

The three of them had just hidden themselves. As soon as Guo Yuan carried the rocket launcher, he saw through the sight of the sight that dozens of fishing boats had lined up from the east bank of the Xidang River and rushed towards the west bank quickly.

In front of this row of fishing boats, there are several gunboats to provide cover.

Guo Yuan estimated the distance. One of the gunboats was less than 100 meters away from him and had reached their range!

"Castball!" Guo Yuan roared, and an ammunition hand quickly stuffed a rocket launcher into the cannon chamber.
Chapter completed!
