This kind of escort squadron is casually separated from the East China Sea Fleet.

The current East China Sea Fleet is undoubtedly a large fleet, and there is no big problem in separating an escort fleet led by heavy cruisers.

The bombing continued and the sailing continued.

At this time, the Japanese naval fleet also set out from various ports, but they did not dare to approach the Koryo Peninsula. They knew that there were countless groups of giant cannons in these places.

All they can do is the question of where to escort the troop transport ships in Yuhehai.

Now the First Division, which was departing from their capital, has set out.

But other divisions are also rushing towards here.

But Kitakyushu was bombed, and wherever they wanted to pass, they had to pass through the strait between Xiaguan and Kitakyushu.

At that time, it is very likely to be bombed by Pingyuan Army.

So they chose to board the ship at Uwa Island, where to get ashore at Sabuki, and then fight with the Peaceful Far Army.

January 1, 1933, at 12:20 noon.

The 19th Army carried out a voyage of more than three hours, and they were about to land in Kitakyushu in more than ten minutes.

The soldiers of the 19th Army were also making final preparations.

"You all listen! Everyone's guns are facing up, don't let the sand go in.

Our connection is here, Area 7.

At ten o'clock, the direction is Baishan. Our division's mission is to take down Baishan and then assist the large army in taking down Shifengshan.

In half an hour, our second batch of landing troops and the 20th Army will also land here.

Do you all understand?"

The cold-faced man looked at his subordinates and said.

As a cloned soldier, he has strong execution ability.

"I understand everything!"

At twelve forty, they successfully docked.

At this time, on the coast, after the continuous bombing of heavy bombers, there were scary pits everywhere.

And you can vaguely see some fortifications built by the Japanese in the front.

But they all turned into ruins in this bombing.

A soldier from Pingyuan was walking carefully on the beach with his own weapon.

He looked everywhere with a cautious look on his face.

As time passed, the distance they advanced began to deepen, and the landing craft behind them also began to drop the troops.

This login went smoothly, really smoothly.

During the continuous bombing of heavy bombers, the fortifications built by the Japanese on the coast became a pile of ruins.

Perhaps the only role he can play is to let the Pingyuan Air Force waste aviation bombs here.

And Zhang Xiuchen, the commander of this army also came down from an escort destroyer.

He was also followed by his Army Command.

“How many troops do we have landed on the shore now?”

Zhang Xunchen asked after looking at the time.

"I don't know! However, based on the troops on the sea that have not yet arrived, the troops we have arrived should be 60%.

A adviser who followed Zhang Xiuchen.

"Sixty percent? That is to say, more than half of our troops have landed? Order the vanguard regiment that had been prepared before and immediately go to Shifeng Mountain and Baishan to explore. See if there are any Japanese.

In addition, a reconnaissance battalion was sent to conduct enemy investigations within Kitakyushu!"

As a veteran, you must know that you know yourself and your enemy and will never be defeated!

Now they have just logged in here and know nothing about the situation here.

As for the information in the Seventh Division has been bombed so much, the specific situation is not clear to the people in the Seventh Division.

So Zhang Xunchen needs to explore all this himself.

At 120 noon, the Pioneer Regiment heard that there were Japanese devils in Shifeng Mountain and Baishan.

However, the number is not large, there are only two regiments in total.

According to the investigation by the Pioneer Regiment, they had only been here for a while, and only half of the fortifications were built, and they collided with these Japanese devils.

"The Japanese who only have two wings? Are they still distributed on two mountains?"

After hearing the news, Zhang Xunchen frowned immediately.

Judging from this, I should be thinking about the problem here.

After a while, Zhang Xunchen raised his head and said, "Go and ask the reconnaissance battalion, what are their current situations? How are they around Kitakyushu?"

"yes!"

A staff officer ran away, and a communications officer ran into Zhang Xiuchen's temporary command center after a while.

"Commander! News came from the reconnaissance battalion, there was no enemy situation around.

In addition, Kitakyushu has been completely blown up. They expect no other enemies around Kitakyushu!"

"Yeah! I get it, you go down!"

Zhang Xiuchen nodded and looked at the map.

"Tell me the order! Order Huang Weigang and Tong Zeguang's two infantry divisions to attack Baishan and Shifeng Mountain respectively. I don't care what they use, and I must take down Baishan and Shifeng Mountain before 3:00 this afternoon."

After looking at the map, Zhang Xunchen believed that the two mountains, Baishan and Shifengshan, could be set up defensive positions in Kitakyushu to block him.

According to the report of the investigation camp, there should be no other place around Kitakyushu.

The only thing that disturbs me now is these two wings.

As long as these two regiments are eaten, it is impossible to encounter large-scale enemy troops today.

And his own 19th Army can also take advantage of this period to expand the occupied area.

According to the plan, the troops landed today will only have their own 19th Army and Zhang Hansheng's 20th Army.

The rest of the troops will only land on the river one after another starting from 5 a.m. tomorrow.

So today the task of my two armies is to capture more land and gain greater strategic space for our side.

This will help the development of the large army.

"Commander! General Zhang Hansheng, commander of the 20th Army, is here!"

Just as Zhang Xiuchen was looking at the map, the guards came in to report.

"Zhang Hansheng? Why did this old guy come?"

After Zhang Xunchen was stunned, he quickly said, "Come on your behalf!"

Then a sound of footsteps rang out.

"Brother Xunchen, I didn't disturb you, did you?"

A cheerful voice sounded, and then a middle-aged man in his forties appeared in Zhang Xiuchen's eyes.

"Brother Han Sheng is here to see you! Have all your troops landed? It's quite fast!"

Zhang Xunchen greeted Zhang Hansheng in with a smile.

"How can there be such an easy thing? More than half of the personnel are logged in now.

But you know, it will take some time for all the jars and jars of our permanent army to be unloaded! Did I come straight to you after getting off the destroyer?"

"Yeah! Indeed, the jars and jars that we always have in place in the army are indispensable! It just so happened that you came just right.

I'm also about to send someone to find you. You can see where we are now. After an afternoon, we have occupied Kitakyushu.

But we are not in a good situation now.

According to the information sent by the military headquarters, the Japanese troops will arrive at Usa at the earliest at around 8 o'clock tonight. According to the information, they are like the 20th Division that the Japanese later formed.

A division, any of our army can eat it, we don’t have to worry about it yet.

The key is that their follow-up troops are still coming. I just looked at the map and I think the most urgent task of our two armies is to occupy the three places: Xiaguan, Xingqiao and Zhifang.

As long as we occupy these three places, we have enough strategic space.

Our follow-up troops will land tomorrow, and we will not be afraid of sudden attacks by the Japanese.

But now the 19th Army in my hand is not very strong enough. The Japanese in Baishan are now fleeing to Shifeng Mountain.

There is nothing to say about the two of their regiments. I just need to leave a regiment where I can eat them.

The key is that after I send the troops out, our internal body will be empty, so I need your assistance. Your 20th Army is now mainly to defend our internal body.
Chapter completed!
