Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

Those wounded soldiers were all young men in their early 20s. Where had I seen such a scene before?

All of them were made blushing by the enthusiastic Korean girls.

However, this welcome method also deepened the sense of honor of these soldiers.

The wounded soldiers were transported back to the rear, but the fighting on Tsushima continued.

Since the early morning of the 8th, when the Tanaka Regiment made a sneak attack on the Daxia military camp, but was severely damaged by Daxia, the rain on Tsushima Island has not stopped.

Originally, Gu Tianxiang was planning to launch an attack after the rain stopped, but the rain continued for three or four days and showed no signs of stopping.

Gu Tianxiang felt a little regretful.

If he had known that if it had been raining for so long, he should have ordered the entire army to pursue them. In this case, at least Sakura Country would not be prepared and Daxia would chase them all the way.

But now, three or four days have passed, and the group of Sakuras are already ready to attack. Daxia will not be able to take advantage of his firepower advantage.

Therefore, Gu Tianxiang calmed down his mood at this time.

On the 14th, the sky finally cleared up.

Gu Tianxiang ordered the entire division to launch a searching advance north.

At this time, in order to reduce the casualties of the 117th Division, the Goryeo headquarters transported several light tanks to the 117th Division.

As a light infantry division, the 117th Division does not have the configuration of tanks.

Therefore, the officers and soldiers of the 117th Division were very happy to have tanks to cooperate with them in combat for the first time.

It’s also worth mentioning that don’t think that the 117th Division is a light infantry division, just because they don’t know how to cooperate with tanks.

In fact, all recruit training in the Daxia army is the same.

They have all trained in infantry combat coordination, but the firepower configuration of individual divisions does not meet the standards of heavy infantry divisions.

If the 117th Division is equipped with a large number of heavy weapons, then the 117th Division can transform into a heavy infantry division.

Moreover, based on the firepower configuration of the 117th Division, is it really a light infantry division?

Each platoon is equipped with one heavy machine gun and two light machine guns. One company has this mortar platoon, 12 60-caliber mortars.

A battalion is equipped with a 90 mm caliber mortar platoon, the number is also 12.

In addition to a 90mm mortar company with a total of 36 mortars, a regiment also has a 90mm towed howitzer.

Online, there are also brigade and division levels.

In particular, the artillery battalion directly under the division headquarters has, in addition to three 3mm mortar companies, a company with four 90-caliber howitzers.

With Sakura's 75mm or above considered heavy artillery, the 117th Division is not considered a light infantry division.

Moreover, the 117th Division also has a large number of trucks and an armored vehicle battalion, with a total of 36 armored vehicles.

Five more light tanks were now accompanying them. Gu Tianxiang felt that his 117th Division's response to the Tanaka Regiment was somewhat like using cannons to kill mosquitoes.

The Tanaka Regiment on Tsushima Island seemed to know that it was no match for the Daxia army, so after its defeat on the 8th, the Tanaka Regiment shrank directly.

Even the secret sentries outside were withdrawn.

Therefore, the advancement speed of the 117th Division is not too slow.

By the evening of the 14th, the large force had approached the North Island and could already see the mountains where the Tanaka Regiment was hiding.

Looking at the dense green virgin forest in the distance, Gu Tianxiang also felt a little sad.

This primitive forest can be said to be a natural ambush site.

With the style of the Sakura National League team, they will definitely set up their own ambush in the forest.

So after seeing this scene, Gu Tianxiang didn't want to let his soldiers go in and die.

So Gu Tianxiang directly chose to call for air support.

In response to Gu Tianxiang's request for fire support, the Korean High Command responded quickly.

Soon a formation of horizontal bombers, under the cover of 12 fighter planes, flew over Tsushima.

After Laman saw the coordinates given by Gu Tianxiang below, the squadron's bombers dropped incendiary bombs downwards.

That's right, it's an incendiary bomb.

In Gu Tianxiang's opinion, if the little cherry blossoms like the machine gun like to hide in the dense forest and never come out, then they should never come out.

After the incendiary bomb was dropped, the forest immediately began to burn.

Gu Tianxiang began to wait slowly. He did not believe that a fire could not wipe out the enemy forces in the forest.

Except for those soldiers of Sakura Country, all of them are monkeys.

The fire burned for three days and three nights until another heavy rain put out the fire.

After the fire passed, Gu Tianxiang allowed the soldiers to move forward.

Perhaps, in the eyes of us today, Gu Tianxiang's actions are somewhat cruel and destructive of nature.

But at that time outside, there was no such thing as protecting the environment.

In order to reduce casualties on your side, it is very common to set a fire.

However, Gu Tianxiang seemed to have underestimated the tenacity of the Sakura Kingdom soldiers.

Although a fire burned down the forest where Tanaka United Team was hiding.

But the Tanaka unit also hid in a strong fortress.

And this fortress almost hollowed out the entire mountain.

Although the fire burning in the forest was large, for the Tanaka Regiment, it was far from wiping out their entire army.

When Gu Tianxiang's 117th Division stepped into their firing range, the soldiers of the Tanaka Regiment hid in the fortress and fired back at the 117th Division.

Seeing those mountain-based fortresses, Gu Tianxiang also knew that now he could only fight head-on.

He asked the soldiers to cooperate with tanks and armored vehicles to implement infantry combat coordination. After approaching the shooting ports of the fortresses, the flamethrowers carrying gasoline cans would aim their jets at the shooting ports.

Suddenly a fire dragon got into the fortress. And in the fortress, there was also a painful roar.

On this day, the 117th Division consumed a large number of gasoline cans, but also cleared the entrance to the fortress.

All that's left is to enter the fortress and engage in close combat with the remaining soldiers of the Tanaka Regiment.

I have to say that these little Sakuras have a really strong will to fight.

Even so, not many people in Tanaka United still chose to surrender.

In this case, Gu Tianxiang was not polite. In his words, he gave him more than one chance to surrender.

Since you have refused so many times, don't think about surrendering in the future.

Because, at this time, Gu Tianxiang was also angered by Tanaka United.

Just to enter the fortress, Gu Tianxiang's 117th Division suffered hundreds of casualties.

This made Gu Tianxiang angry.

In particular, when he heard that his soldiers sometimes went to treat injured Sakura Country soldiers, but were killed by the Sakura Country soldiers with self-explosion grenades, he no longer wanted to persuade them to surrender and survive.

Gu Tianxiang directly ordered that no one should be left alive after entering the fortress this time!
