Tsarist Russia: Please Call Me Your Majesty The Tsar

Chapter 152 Bloody Battle At Sand River (Second Update, Please Subscribe!)

"Your Excellency, Commander, what should we do next? Should we continue to attack?" Major General Haruno Okubo asked.

General Ao Baogong's face was very ugly. Originally, they planned to bombard the Tsarist Russian army's defense line with artillery, and then dispatched infantry to launch a surprise attack, smashing the Tsarist Russian army's defense line and defeating the Tsarist Russian army in one fell swoop.

However, problems arose from the initial firepower preparation. This made the Dongyang Army's next actions undoubtedly encounter great obstacles.

A trace of ferocity flashed in General Ao Baogong's eyes.

"Order the 3rd Infantry Division, even if they don't have enough firepower to prepare, they will attack on time. If there are not enough shells, let the soldiers fill them with courage. We want the Russians to know that the warriors of the empire are Invincible!" General Ao Baogong gave the order very cold-bloodedly.

The generals of the Eastern Army have never cared about human lives. He doesn't care about the enemy's orders, nor does he care about his own life.

This is also why the Orientals are devils after they go to the battlefield. They don't even care about their own life and death. Do they care about other things? Therefore, the Orientals will often carry out massacres recklessly.

"Hi, Your Excellency Commander!" Major General Haruno Okubo replied.

Headquarters of the 3rd Division of the Toyo Army Infantry.

Lieutenant General Yoshimasa Oshima and Chief of Staff Mikio Shimamura of the division regiment also looked ugly after receiving the order.

"Your Excellency, division commander, it seems that we have to prepare for heavy losses. Our soldiers have to brave the fierce Russian artillery fire to cross the Shahe River." Said Colonel Shimamura Mikio.

Lieutenant General Oshima Yoshima nodded: "Order the 6th Infantry Regiment and the 18th Infantry Regiment under the 5th Infantry Brigade. The 7th Infantry Regiment and the 19th Infantry Regiment under the 6th Infantry Brigade As well as the 3rd Cavalry Brigade Regiment, the 3rd Engineer Regiment, and the 3rd Supplies Regiment, all are ready. This time, we will launch a large-scale attack without reservation, and try our best to break through in one fell swoop. The Russian line of defense "!"

Lieutenant General Yoshimasa Oshima knew very well that General Oba Gong had issued very strict orders. Therefore, they have no other choice at all, and can only do their best in the next big battle.

"Hi, Your Excellency, Commander!" Colonel Mikio Shimamura replied.

The various infantry regiments, cavalry regiments, engineering regiments and supply regiments under the 3rd Division of the Eastern Army Infantry will all be involved in the attack. This undoubtedly also shows the determination of Lieutenant General Oshima Yoshimasa.

At the same time, the 4th Infantry Division, the 6th Infantry Division and the 8th Infantry Division of the Eastern Army also received orders from General Ao Baogong.

However, compared with the 3rd Infantry Division, almost all of its strength was invested. These three infantry divisions are responsible for containing and assisting the 3rd infantry division. Therefore, these three divisions only invested in one infantry wing to participate in the attack.

But even so, the Dongyang Army’s offensive force on the front line of Shahe has already reached 7 infantry regiments, plus the cavalry regiment, engineering regiment and transportation regiment of the 3rd Infantry Division. There are already more than 30,000 people.

The Second Army of the Eastern Army undoubtedly attached great importance to this attack.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Lieutenant General Yoshisawa Oshima, head of the 3rd Infantry Division of the Eastern Army, personally issued the order to attack.

The 4 infantry regiments, 12 infantry brigades, cavalry regiments, engineering regiments and supply regiments of the 3rd Division of the Eastern Army Infantry were all involved in the attack.

More than 20,000 Japanese soldiers rushed towards the defense line of the Tsarist Russian Army on a front more than ten kilometers long.

"Onboard His Majesty Tianhuang! Onboard the Eastern Empire!"

"Kill the Russians, beat them!"

One by one, middle and low-level officers, waving their command knives, circled at the front of the queue.

The Japanese's offensive method of officers taking the lead can undoubtedly greatly boost the morale of the soldiers.

The eyes of those oriental soldiers were all red, as if the animal nature in their bones had been aroused, and they were not afraid of death at all. Holding thirty-year-style rifles, they bravely charged with bowed legs.

"Yoshi! This is what the soldiers of the empire should look like. Even without powerful artillery fire, we are the most powerful army in the world!" Lieutenant General Yoshima Oshima looked proud

Of course, he is very clear that launching such an attack will cost a lot of casualties, and many districts will die.

However, Lieutenant General Yoshimasa Oshima didn't care at all.

Even if the entire 3rd Infantry Division is wiped out, as long as they can win, they can be rebuilt soon. Moreover, not only will he not be punished, but he will also be rewarded

Therefore, in the eyes of Lieutenant General Oshima Yoshimasa, those Japanese soldiers were like livestock, even if they died, he would not feel any distress.

The fierce attack launched by the Eastern Army threatened all the troops of the Tsarist Russian Army.

The powerful artillery immediately shifted its attack target and began to pour shells at these Japanese soldiers.

Those originally silent 75mm field guns also joined the shelling at this time.

Boom! Boom!"

The densely packed shells fell like raindrops, hitting the Japanese attacking line.

The shells exploded, shrapnel was shot in all directions, and a large number of Orientals were blown to pieces, with stumps and broken arms scattered everywhere.

But even so, those Orientals were not intimidated. It was as if the soldiers who were blown to pieces were not human at all.

These oriental soldiers still screamed and charged until they were blown to death.

"Boom! Boom!"

As the Orientals got closer and closer to the Tsarist Russian Army's (Noma's) defense line, mortars of various calibers also began to fire.

For a time, the artillery fire became more intensive.

This naturally caused greater casualties to those Orientals.

Although the Dongyang people are brave, they are not invulnerable after all. In front of the shells, they are still like paper, and they will be blown to pieces with ease.

However, these Orientals are indeed very brave.

The artillery fire of the Tsarist Russian Army was so fierce that it could not stop their progress. They stepped on the bones of their dead comrades-in-arms and continued to charge.

"Come on! Don't be afraid of the Russian artillery fire, Amaterasu will protect us!"

"The time has come to be loyal to His Majesty Yin Tianzhu for the sake of the empire!"

"Gentlemen, see you at Kudanzaka!"

The Orientals chanted all kinds of slogans and bravely attacked the Tsarist Russian Army's defense line until they were blown to pieces. .
