Warlords: Conquer the world from the county magistrate

Chapter 308: Annihilation of the Tamura Division

When the 15th and 16th Divisions captured Dingcao, the fighting outside Jin County also became increasingly intense.

The commanders of the 3rd and 13th divisions had not intended to destroy this small army of locusts so quickly.

Unexpectedly, after the Nanshan Army attacked for a while and stopped to defend the defense line, the dwarf locust soldiers suddenly launched a charge on all four defense lines, killing many people. Seeing this good opportunity, the two division commanders would naturally not let it go.

"Commander Fang, these little dwarfs are very tenacious." Duan Pingliang, commander of the Third Division, couldn't help but sigh.

Fang Weiguo, the commander of the 13th Division, was not surprised at all: "When our army first fought against these dwarfs, we also suffered a lot of losses. When we wiped out one of their divisions, we also lost a lot of people."

"But now it's all right. To deal with them, we just need to make use of our firepower advantage and use the slow to defeat the fast, which can minimize our casualties."

"Yes, Commander Fang is very insightful." Duan Pingliang quickly agreed.

Duan Pingliang did not dare to underestimate Fang Weiguo in the slightest, as he was one of the earliest people to follow the Chairman.

Although they are all teachers, their status in the chairman's heart is completely different.

Although the previous counterattack resulted in the loss of many soldiers, under the command of Tamura Mitsukazu, the dwarf locust soldiers managed to stabilize the situation, but their living space was further compressed.

"Have you found that bastard Matsui?" Only after he had some free time did Tamura have time to investigate what happened in the morning.

The order to arrange a counterattack was issued by Matsui Eimoto. His original intention was to cause chaos in the Nanshan Army. He led an elite force to break out, and then attack from the front and back to open a gap.

However, although the imagination was very beautiful, the reality gave Matsui a heavy blow.

The various troops attacked from all sides, which gave the Nanshan Army an opportunity to eliminate part of their manpower. He and his elite troops were also repelled by the Nanshan Army.

The chief of staff secretly glanced at Tamura Koichi, and after struggling for a moment, he whispered, "Your Excellency the division commander, when the brigade commander Matsui led his troops to charge, he was hit by the Nanshan Army and was seriously injured."

It was true that Matsui was shot, but he was not seriously injured. He was only shot in the left arm. The chief of staff accepted Matsui's bribe and temporarily excused him.

"Damn it, why wasn't he killed by the Nanshan Army?" Obviously, Tamura Koichi's anger was not so easy to eliminate.

The chief of staff could only bite the bullet and analyze: "Your Excellency, this may not be a bad thing. Matsui is injured, so it is naturally difficult for him to command the troops at this time. The command of the entire army naturally falls into your hands."

"Yoshi." Tamura Mitsuichi's eyes suddenly lit up.

Although Abe Tokiji and Matsui Eimoto were both brigade commanders under him, Tamura could do nothing if they really did not follow his orders during the war.

Just like this time, Tamura Mitsui ordered his troops to hold their ground, but Matsui Eimoto arbitrarily ordered his troops to counterattack.

This made Tamura Koichi angry but helpless. After all, Matsui was the brigade commander and had more subordinates than the division's direct troops.

"Boom, boom, boom."

While the two were talking, the sound of mortar shells exploding again was heard not far away, and the Nanshan Army attacked them again.

Because the Dwarf Locusts were surrounded by their own people, the Nanshan Army was very cautious in adapting to mortars and did not dare to launch a large-scale bombardment of the Dwarf Locusts for fear of accidentally injuring their own people.

Now that the small locusts have retreated their defense lines, the Nanshan Army has become more cautious in using mortars.

After firing a few shots and destroying the heavy machine gun position of the Little Locust, the Nanshan Army stopped the shelling.

Koichi Tamura was also helpless. Now that the strategic space was compressed, artillery had basically lost its effect, and mortars would be cleared as soon as they showed up.

"Uchiyama-kun, organize a death squad to counterattack the east and expand our strategic space."

"Hi." The chief of staff responded and immediately went down to make arrangements.

After a day of fighting, the dwarf locust soldiers were not only physically tired, but also under great pressure mentally.

But the Dwarf Locusts are different from the New Zealanders. When faced with pressure, the New Zealanders will endure or overcome it, but the Dwarf Locusts will just explode and go completely crazy.

"The division commander is planning to form a death squad. Who is willing to join?"

"Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, I do."

"Me, me, and me."

When Chief of Staff Uchiyama Kaneda announced the formation of a suicide squad, all of these little locust soldiers enthusiastically participated.

Under this pressure, these people just want to go crazy, and they don't care about death at all. If they join the suicide squad, they will die, but if they stay on the battlefield, they won't die?

Soon, a suicide squad of more than a thousand people rushed to the east. However, under the general-purpose machine guns, these people did not cause any waves at all, but further reduced the manpower of the Tamura Division.

"Okay, let's wrap it up." On the mountain, Fang Weiguo put down the telescope and gave the order.

"Of this group of dwarf locust soldiers, only about 2,000 are intact, and there are more than 3,000 wounded."

The most important thing is that they were surrounded on all sides and attacked from both sides, so they could not exert their full combat power.

"it is good."

Duan Pingliang on the side responded and ordered the 302nd, 303rd and 304th Regiments under his command to join the battle.

Previously, the Third Division only defended the west of the Little Locust Army and held the Dahuangshan line. The remaining three sides were all attacked by the Thirteenth Division.

On the plains, even when attacked from both sides, the 13th Division was able to defeat them.

But Fang Weiguo felt that there was no need for this. Firstly, it was to reduce troop casualties, and secondly, it was impossible for him to take all the credit.

After all, everyone was sent to the army together, so it is impossible for him to take all the credit alone. This kind of behavior is a taboo in the army and can easily offend people.

After the three regiments of the Third Division joined the battle, the pressure on the Dwarf Locust Army increased sharply.

Even though they fought back desperately, they were still being eliminated bit by bit under the siege from all sides by the Nanshan Army.

Seeing that the situation was irreversible, Tamura Koichi ordered: "Concentrate the heavy artillery shells and heavy guns, and when the enemy rushes up, detonate them."

"Yes."

After the chief of staff went to convey the order, Tamura Koichi waved away the soldiers to leave himself a space. He took off his military uniform, knelt on the ground in his white shirt and chose to commit seppuku.

"Your Excellency the Division Commander." When the Chief of Staff came back, all he saw was the body of Koichi Tamura.

Seeing that the situation was irreversible, the chief of staff chose to commit suicide by shooting himself.

At the last moment, the dwarf locust soldier detonated a grenade and rushed towards the Nanshan Army, showing his crazy side.

The dwarf locust soldiers who received the order saw that the Nanshan army had broken into their last position and decisively detonated the heavy artillery shells.

Amidst the loud bangs, the Nanshan Army lost hundreds of vanguard troops, and most of the remaining dwarf locust soldiers on the position were killed in the artillery explosions.

The two commanders on the mountain turned pale when they saw this.

Even though he had seen the madness of the Dwarf Locust Nation, it was hard to hide Fang Weiguo's anger: "These dwarfs are still as crazy as ever."

"Yes, many of their people died in the final explosion." Duan Pingliang was still frightened.

After the explosion, the Dwarf Locust soldiers had little resistance, but some of them still lay in the trenches pretending to be dead, trying to detonate grenades and die together with the approaching Nanshan Army.

The Nanshan Army had long been prepared for this move, and they fired at the corpses of the dwarf locusts one by one in their position to avoid being ambushed.
