I am Jiang Weiguo in World War II
Page 136
"Keep going!" Zheng Dongguo yelled, the tank roared and galloped, and the signal lights specially installed on the tail were particularly eye-catching in the stormy night. This was for the convenience of the troops behind. Troops can easily get lost, separated or even thrown into disarray in the dark.
Behind the troops, Jiang Weiguo's tanks were also running intermittently.
It stands to reason that Jiang Weiguo must "cherish life" for the sake of the country. He himself does not want to die, but he is impatient and always sits in the rear "planning strategies". Eager to feel the passion on the battlefield again, he also puts on his clothes and participates in this attack .
Looking up, Jiang Weiguo saw that Ping'an Town in the distance had been engulfed in flames, lightning and thunder in the sky, and lightning and thunder on the ground. The impacting troops rolled away like mudslides, dense gunshots and explosions of shells and grenades. The sound continued to penetrate the rain curtain, and the drenched Chinese soldiers held their sharp bayonets in the heavy rain, running at full speed and advancing bravely, stepping on countless splashes of rain and concrete, and every time lightning flashed, the dark ground immediately shone. From the bayonet light that meanders continuously like a galaxy, and the steel-like faces under the light of the bayonet.
"A man should kill, and kill without mercy! Immortal karma is all in killing!" Jiang Weiguo, who was excited by this spectacular scene, couldn't help but blurted out the slightly radical but soul-stirring "Men's Walk" ".
Yang Mei, who was sitting next to Jiang Weiguo, turned her face and looked at Jiang Weiguo with a strange look.
"I've become handsome again?" Jiang Weiguo was still brazen.
Yang Mei's eyes were a little confused: "I've known you for so long, and I've discovered more and more that you are quite extreme!"
"Extreme?" Jiang Weiguo laughed loudly, "Every country needs extreme people! It needs extremists whose hands are stained with the blood of the enemy! Build our new Great Wall with the flesh and blood of the enemy! Pave our new Great Wall with the bones of the enemy!" territory!" He was in high spirits.
"Jianhao!" Zheng Dongguo's voice came from the tank radio, "We are about to pass through Ping'an Town!"
"Ah?" Jiang Weiguo was taken aback, "Has it been shot? So fast?"
"The Japanese army's defense line here has been broken by us!" Zheng Dongguo's tone was full of surprises, "We originally estimated that the Japanese army had at least two brigades here, but in fact there are only two squadrons, and there are no decent fortifications. Charge, the Japanese army collapsed directly.
We need to hurry up and continue to rush to Huijiao Port. Let the Japanese stragglers here be dealt with by the follow-up troops!We are so smooth!God bless us! "
"This Masaki Ito is really arrogant!" Jiang Weiguo was also surprised and delighted, "Such a small amount of troops are placed on the rear flanks. Damn it, I told him to pretend to be an ass! He must be beaten as a fool!"
Facing the overwhelming Chinese army, Lieutenant General Ito finally began to pay the price for his "early bird" behavior. The first outreach stronghold Ping'an Town in the rear of the 101st Division hardly made the Chinese army pay too much. , Three times, five divisions and two places were captured. A cavalry brigade of the Japanese army defending here was killed and only 30 people survived, and the two squadrons were quickly defeated.
The officers and soldiers were surprised to find that the "Great Japanese Imperial Army", which had always been as smelly and hard as a stone in a latrine, could be so weak and deceptive. Half of the hundreds of Japanese troops in Ping'an Town were on the tracks of Chinese tanks. The half-dead who became dead in the dense firepower net or fell into a pool of mud, water and blood will soon be re-stabbed and become completely dead, while the other half flee in panic.
It took just over three hours for the leading troops of the 128th Regiment to arrive at Huijiao Port, the first stop of the Japanese 101st Division in Shanghai, in the mud and rain. Here, a real fierce battle finally broke out between the two sides.
In the heavy rain, the tanks roared, and the covering infantry rushed towards the houses where the Japanese soldiers were hiding and turned into firepower points. Amidst the thunderbolts, the houses where the Japanese soldiers were hiding collapsed one after another in the shell explosions, and the Japanese soldiers inside were either blown to pieces. Flesh and blood flew everywhere, or they were directly buried alive by the collapsed houses. Grenades and mortar shells danced in mid-air, blasting balls of fireballs and blood mist. Amid the shouts of killing, the crowds fell down in rows, and the alley became the sewer of the slaughterhouse.
The Japanese troops stationed at Huijiao Port consisted of two infantry brigades and one heavy brigade, and soon they were unable to hold back under the onslaught of the Chinese army that surged up like a tide.
Although the battle was fierce, it still fell to the Chinese army.
"Ito Masaki is such a fool!" Chen Cheng was elated after receiving the report, "Such a small amount of troops are placed in the rear, and the defense is so empty, he will soon regret his arrogance!"
At the same time, the headquarters of the Japanese "Shanghai Dispatch Army" is located in a village on the bank of the Wusongkou River.
"Report!" A drenched major staff officer rushed in hastily, "The battle in Hudong suddenly changed!"
In the headquarters, General Matsui Iwane, the commander, is playing chess with Major General Ishihara Kanji, the chief of staff of the dispatched army. Both of them looked calm, and they did not deal with military affairs on this thunderous and stormy night, but took a break from their busy schedule. Playing chess is a bit weird.
The two seemed to be waiting for something.
"Oh?" General Matsui held a chess piece. He fixed his eyes on the chessboard, concentrating on where the piece would be placed. He was not at all surprised by the behavior of the major staff officer who rushed in. He didn't even take his eyes off the chessboard. He was still angry. Resting his mind, after dropping the chess piece, he raised his head and looked at Ishihara who was facing him with a smile, "It finally happened?"
General Matsui looked like he was talking to Ishihara Wanji, but it also looked like he was asking the Major's staff.
The major staff officer stood there at a loss.
Ishihara looked at the Major's staff officer with a smile, and said calmly: "The Chinese army raided the rear of the 101st Division?"
"Hayi!" Major Staff Officer hurriedly said, "A large number of troops of the Chinese Army are attacking Ping'an Town, Datuan Town, Huijiao Port and other places. The rear of the 101st Division is in danger of being surrounded and intercepted!"
Ishihara smiled, and looked at General Matsui again: "It's about this time, the weather is so favorable to them tonight, it's not normal for them not to do anything!"
"I want to eat a division of the Imperial Army!" General Matsui also laughed, "Chiang Kai-shek's appetite is really not small.
Ishihara-kun, the next step is your turn!"
Chapter 191 Hudong Fighting Soldier (3)
Starting from October [-]st, the whole world has turned its focus from Hudong to Hudong, because the Chinese army has surrounded a full-staffed first-class division of the Japanese army in Hudong, and has to pay close attention to Shanghai. The great powers at war were further amazed.
"This Hudong counterattack is a sign that the Chinese army is shifting from a comprehensive defense to a partial counterattack and even a full-scale counterattack on the Shanghai battlefield." An American newspaper commented, "Maybe in another month, the Japanese army will be taken from Shanghai. Hurry to sea!"
The national army's plan of "drawing salaries from the bottom of the pot" the night before was relatively smooth and successful. Perhaps it was the reason why Huang Wei, the former commander-in-chief of the enemy in Hudong, was serious, well-deployed, and well-arranged. The national army is all the direct line of the Central Army, and the hearts of the people are very united. The leaders of the various troops know, "The old man has placed high hopes on this battle. Which army will work hard to make contributions? Under the 'Longyan Joy', the old man is promoted and made a fortune. The iron plate is firmly established, which army loses the chain and drags its legs, the old man is under the "Longyan fury", the light one will be demoted, the serious one will be thrown into limbo, and he may even be imprisoned and beheaded.
As for the troops in hand, they are all given by the old man anyway, and you don’t need to feel bad if you kill them all, and the old man will replenish as much as you kill.” Because of this tacit consensus, no participating troops dare to play or are willing Playing the tricks of passively avoiding battles and preserving strength, all of them strive to be the first.
Under the overwhelming attack of the national army, the troops of the 101st Division's strongholds on the coast collapsed one after another.
Of course, all the troops also discovered and admitted that this group of Japanese soldiers from Tokyo seemed to be strong outside but with a false name. Although they were caught off guard by the national army, the Japanese army's weak combat effectiveness and weak will to resist were also successfully intercepted by the national army. An important reason for the retreat of the Japanese army.
According to statistics at dawn, the 101st Division had about 101 troops on the coast. During the battle, more than [-] people were killed or injured by the national army (basically all were killed), and the remaining Japanese troops swarmed like frightened birds. Fleeing to the location of the main force of the [-]st Division.
"Good! Good! Well done!" After receiving Chen Cheng's impatient telegram, Chiang Kai-shek, who hadn't slept all night, couldn't help but praise repeatedly, and then ordered Qian Dajun, the director of the attendant's office, "Chen Cheng, at all costs, must Completely annihilate the Ito Division, which has become a trapped beast! He can take full responsibility for the deployment of troops, ordnance, and supplies of the Shanghai front-line national army!"
Qian Dajun stood at attention solemnly: "Yes!" He knew well that Chiang Kai-shek had given Chen Cheng the Shang Fang sword.
On the Hudong front line, Chen Cheng, who received Shangfang's sword, became more and more energetic: "The 9th, 19th, 8th, and 10th Army Groups are sent to Hudong at full speed and put into siege operations against the enemy's 101st Division! The 10th Army Group Responsible for defending the defense line along the Huangpu River, the 8th Army immediately launched a full-scale general attack on the enemy's southern flank along the Tairi Town and Luhui Town, blocking the enemy's escape route to the south, attacking the enemy's vital forces, and rushing to support the 10th Army's defense in the west of the enemy Combat; the 9th and 19th Group Armies can be transferred to Zhangjiang Town and Waxie Town, cut off the enemy's escape route to Hubei and resist the Japanese troops from Hubei to rescue Hudong; immediately contact the Air Force and Navy, Hudong needs the full support of the Air Force, and the Navy Be sure to launch intensive mining along the east coast of Shanghai within 24 hours..."
Looking at the more than a dozen red arrows on the map, representing the direction of the national army's attack, piercing from all directions towards the 101st Division, Chen Cheng rubbed his hands with great ambition: "The 20-strong army is encircled by an iron wall! The heaven and earth net! Masaki Ito, You have thrown yourself into a trap, and you are doomed to escape!"
Due to Jiang Weiguo's reorganization and strengthening of the Chinese Air Force, the Chinese Air Force, which implements the "fighter first, only fighter" does not have a strong air strike capability at this time, but it has a large number of "first-class fighters equipped with excellent pilots" and dominates the battlefield. As a result, the "reasonable proportion of aircraft types" and the Japanese air force with many bombers are very difficult to bomb the Chinese army indiscriminately, because the Chinese Air Force has no ability to bomb the Japanese army, but once the Japanese fighter jets and bombers take off, they will be destroyed by the Chinese Air Force. The planes scrambled and fled, which allowed the national army troops to march, assemble, and attack the enemy even on sunny and sunny days.
On the Hudong battlefield, following Chen Cheng's strict orders, the 20 national troops belonging to the four group armies rushed from all directions to the 101st Division, which became the turtle in the jar, amidst the earth-shattering shouts and gunfire.
Zhaojiagou in the southeast of Pujiang Town, the division headquarters of the 101st Division of the Japanese Army.
On a small slope a few meters high outside the division headquarters, Lieutenant General Masaki Ito held up his binoculars. His expression was very calm, without any panic. His face that was originally full of determination, coldness, arrogance, and arrogance was now only left. Fortitude and ruthlessness.
Lieutenant General Ito looked at the distant horizon calmly, with a faint mocking sneer flowing from the corner of his mouth.
The scene of the fierce battle appeared in the telescope, and a gray-blue water line surged over the horizon, rushing towards the 101st Division's control area like a rising tide, and all kinds of light and heavy weapons exploded loudly. In no time, the explosion of grenades and shells, the impact of bayonets and guns, the roar of military boots trampling on the ground, and the hoarse shouts... converged into a huge and earth-shattering sound wave. Tens of thousands of Chinese soldiers were charging, and this was just one of them. In a local battlefield, there are more than a dozen of the same or similar battlefields. The national army, whose strength is seven or eight times that of the Japanese army, directly launched a full-scale attack on the Japanese army with crowd tactics.
In the smoggy sky, more than a dozen bf-109 fighter jets of the Chinese Air Force were roaring and circling. The screams splashed everywhere.
The 30mm caliber aviation machine gun and the 13mm caliber aviation machine gun fired head-on shots at the ground personnel with amazing lethality. The Japanese soldiers who were hit by the machine gun bullets either lost their limbs, broke their stomachs, or had their heads smashed. The Japanese soldiers in the middle were even more shocking, their bodies were completely torn apart, their heads were directly smashed, and wherever the bullets went, they set off clouds of flesh and blood like a meat grinder.
On the Japanese position, clusters of crossfire tongues fired by multiple machine guns at the same time counterattacked into the sky one after another, hitting back at the almost unscrupulous national army aircraft, sparks bloomed in mid-air, and a bf-109 was hit by a shuttle of bullets. Thick smoke billowed out immediately and fell to the ground. Before the pilot had time to parachute, he and the plane turned into a big fireball on the ground.
Seeing this scene, the rest of the bf-109 climbed up to speed up one after another.
The Chinese Air Force is seriously short of bombers, and fighter jets have to play the role of attacking the Japanese army. Fighters that cannot throw bombs can only use aviation cannons and machine guns to shoot down the Japanese troops on the ground. In fact, the pilots are not very willing to do this kind of thing. It will consume shells and bullets. If the Japanese planes attack, the lack of ammunition will limit the combat effectiveness of the aircraft. Second, the Japanese army must fly at low altitudes to straf the ground. The lower the flight, the clearer the sight and the more accurate the shooting. It became the attack target of the Japanese army on the ground, and because the plane flew too low, in case of an accident, the pilot did not have a safe skydiving height, and it was extremely easy to crash and die.
If the National Army fighter jets that could slaughter Japanese aircraft in the sky were destroyed by Japanese machine guns, it would undoubtedly be a great waste of sacrifice.
"Kill!" Amid the wind and thunder in Chinese, the Chinese soldiers approached the Japanese positions like a torrent and a tsunami.
On the battlefield, under the flag of the sun, pairs of gloomy and vigilant eyes and the muzzles of each black hole aimed at the incoming Chinese troops.
"Samurai, it's time to be loyal to the emperor!" The squadron leaders, battalion leaders, and even regiment leaders who took the lead in the army drew out their sabers together.
The morale of the national army is like a rainbow. After all, it is the early stage of the Anti-Japanese War. Although the first battle of Pingjin was declared a failure, the national army has won many battles. Whether it is a land battle, a naval battle, or an air battle, the national army has the ability to defeat the Japanese army. In addition, the national army on the Hudong battlefield is a direct descendant of the central army with high loyalty and tenacious will, and the officers and soldiers already know that "these little devils have been surrounded by us, as long as we work harder You can kill them completely", so the morale is very strong.
Dozens of German-made tanks and German-made armored vehicles took the lead before the wave of infantry. Suddenly, a wave of white light erupted from the Japanese army's position. In the continuous explosion of earth-shattering explosions, more than a dozen national army tanks and armored vehicles burst into flames and were killed. Almost none of the armored soldiers in the tanks and armored vehicles hit by shells survived. The rest of the armored soldiers continued to step on the accelerator without fear, the iron wheels galloped and the iron armor rolled. The Japanese army's firepower network attacked the Japanese army with the same dazzling and ferocious firepower. In the rain formed by water droplets, countless bullets made of steel and bloody rain roared in an instant.
The national army tanks and armored vehicles were well-trained to form a small-scale armored group that maximized its attack power. They smashed into the Japanese defense line like a hammer. The Japanese army who came up like locusts launched an unobstructed confrontation. After the bullets in the gun chambers were exhausted, countless white bayonets drowned the two armies in a death storm like a tornado with countless blades.
The red-eyed Chinese soldiers and the Japanese soldiers engaged in hand-to-hand combat where the mountains and rivers changed color. The soldiers of the two armies who were stabbed by bayonets fell on the bloody ground. The military boots were trampled to death, and some directly slammed the grenade on their bodies, blowing up a large amount of blood and flesh from the soldiers on both sides.
Tanks of the national army repeatedly crushed on the Japanese positions, repeatedly strafed the Japanese army crowds, and repeatedly bombarded the Japanese firepower strongholds. Destroyed by the Japanese meat bombs that drilled into the chassis of the tank with cluster grenades.
The national army troops that rushed into the Japanese defense line were almost frantically counterattacked by the Japanese army, and then they were exhausted in close combat, melee, hand-to-hand combat, and hand-to-hand combat. Accurate and sufficient ammunition, the national army who fired at it paid more than five times the casualty price of the opponent.
The national army that launched the siege was extremely stubbornly resisted by the Japanese army, and all the troops were at a standstill and progress was slow.
In the former enemy general headquarters in Guangming Town, Chen Cheng was dry-mouthed and hoarse, because he had been cursing for more than an hour. He picked up the phone and scolded the division commander and then the brigade commander. Huang Jie from Division 2.
Huang Jie's position at this time is actually the commander of the 8th Army. The 8th Army has the 2nd Division and the 166th Division under its jurisdiction. Most of the veterans in the remaining officers and soldiers of the division were transferred to the 166nd Division, and then the division was withdrawn to Kunshan for rest. He, the commander, personally commanded the 2nd Division.
In the general offensive in the morning, the 2nd Division was ordered to attack Hehuazhuang outside the Japanese-controlled area. As a result, after several rounds of confrontation, the 2nd Division lost more than 3000 people and a regiment leader.
The reason why the fight was so ugly is that firstly, the resistance of the Japanese army was very tenacious, and secondly, that Huang Jie was arrogant and underestimated the enemy, and was careless. His 2nd Division captured two small towns and three villages that were occupied by the Japanese army in succession in the battle last night. The wind went smoothly, and the smooth battle was fought so smoothly, which made Huang Jie think that today's Hehuazhuang could also be captured easily. As a result, he suffered a big loss from a Japanese army in Zhuangzi, and the 2nd Division failed in the last attack. When retreating temporarily, the Japanese army in Zhuangzi took the initiative to launch a full-scale pursuit, defeating the 2nd Division.
"How did you command it?" Chen Cheng was furious. "The second division is the main force of the Northern Expedition! The backbone of the party-state army! How did you become so useless in your hands? You didn't take the lotus village all morning, and it was cleaned up by the Japanese army." Drop a whole ball! Idiot!"
Huang Jie cried bitterly: "Grandpa, the Japanese army suddenly went crazy to resist, the brothers really did their best! It's really strange! These little devils were beaten by us last night, why did they suddenly become so rampant today? ?” (Chen Cheng expresses Ci Xiu, and outsiders respectfully call him “Ci Gong”.
)
"Nonsense!" Chen Cheng was fuming, "The dog jumped the wall! The fish died and the net broke! The Japanese army fought a trapped beast, of course it was a deadly battle! You need me to teach you such a simple truth? You immediately organize the troops, and I will send a regiment from Tang Enbo to supplement you. If you still can't win the Lotus Village before dark, I will take responsibility for your poor command on behalf of the chairman!"
"Resignation!" Guo Rugui, the deputy chief of staff of the Left Wing Army suddenly strode up to Chen Cheng nervously and anxiously, and handed over an urgent telegram from the navy, "Japanese reinforcements are coming soon!" Guo Rugui was originally The Chief of Staff of the 15th Division of the 18th Army of the 14th Group Army and the acting brigade commander of the 42nd Brigade of the division was deeply trusted by Chen Cheng because of his outstanding performance in the Shanghai-Northern Operation, and was promoted to the Deputy Chief of Staff of the Left Wing Army.
It is worth mentioning that the faction of Chen Cheng is called "Civil Engineering Department" because Chen Cheng's confidantes are basically from the 18th Division of the 11th Army of Chen Cheng's old army, and Guo Rugui was born in the 18th Division of the 14th Division. The direct line of the direct line, but also belongs to the core personnel of the civil engineering department.
"What?" Chen Cheng was taken aback, and hurriedly took the telegram.
The telegram was sent by the Navy Command. The information came from a Chinese naval submarine operating in the East China Sea. The submarine discovered that a large-scale Japanese transport fleet was approaching Shanghai. There were more than [-] escort warships in the fleet. (Basically light cruisers and destroyers) and more than forty transport ships. After analysis and calculation, it is conservatively estimated that the fleet carries at least one division's strength and more than [-] tons of supplies.
"How much longer?" Chen Cheng was shocked.
Guo Rugui said with a gloomy expression: "The submarine of our army found this Japanese fleet in the waters about 200 kilometers away from Shanghai. The fleet's speed is about 18 knots. It is certain that the fleet will arrive in Shanghai before midnight today!"
Chen Cheng pursed his lips tightly and looked pained, because he knew very well that the Japanese army suddenly came to reinforce the besieged 101st Division, and the difficulty for the national army to gather and wipe out the 101st Division would be greatly increased.
The Japanese army of the two divisions has 20 troops, and the national army needs at least [-] troops to contend with them. It is difficult to imagine how difficult it is to fight against them and also want to annihilate them one by one.
"The Japanese army came so fast!" Chen Cheng was also a little bit unwilling under the gloomy mood, "The Japanese reinforcements have arrived before the army even tore through the extended defense line of the Ito Division!"
"Ci Gong..." Guo Rugui said in a low voice, "Once the newly reinforced division of the Japanese army lands in Hudong, the situation will be very bad. It is not that we surround the Japanese army, but that the Japanese army attack us back and forth. If it gets out of control, I'm afraid it will shake up the battle situation in Shanghai!"
"Could it be that the Hudong war was about to be given up at the very beginning?" Chen Cheng was burned inside.
"It is very likely that the division of the Japanese army will not land in Hudong!" When Jiang Weiguo forwarded the telegram that Chen Cheng forwarded to him to Xiao Yao, Xiao Yao said something that surprised Jiang Weiguo after reading it.
"Why?" Jiang Weiguo was very surprised.
"Being passively beaten is not the style of the Japanese, and it is also unacceptable for the Japanese's morbid self-esteem and self-confidence!" Xiao Yao analyzed, "Although the 101st Division was besieged by our army, it was not in dire straits. Under such circumstances, since the Japanese army has another division in the battle, there seems to be no reason to invest in Hudong, and it can be invested in another place, which will allow the Japanese to obtain greater gains!"
Jiang Weiguo immediately woke up: "Hubei?"
