I am Jiang Weiguo in World War II

Lieutenant General Ito was very pleased with the loyalty and carefulness of his subordinates. He nodded, then laboriously turned his brain, which was somewhat rigid and dull due to lack of sleep, and quickly issued a few instructions: "The goal of the Chinese Army must still be to eat The 101st Brigade's attack on us is likely to be a slap in the face, trying to contain our troops or play a weak point in our defense line, we cannot be passively beaten.

Kudo-kun, you are trying to organize a few capable troops to launch a local counterattack on the front. On the one hand, it is to crush the full-scale attack of the Chinese army, and on the other hand, it is to make the Chinese army fall into a passive position and be restrained by our troops, so as to ensure that the situation of the 101st Brigade is under control. improve!"

"Please don't worry, Master Commander, I'll do it right away!" Major General Kudo stood at attention solemnly.

"Your Excellency, Commander..." Nishiyama looked at Lieutenant General Ito, who looked haggard, haggard, and red-eyed. He knew that the divisional commander hadn't closed his eyes for two or three days in a row, and was in a very exhausted state. , "You should take a rest! The war is in charge of me, Kudo-kun and others, so don't worry!"

Lieutenant General Ito smiled with difficulty. He knew that he was indeed very sleep-deprived: "Okay, Nishiyama-kun and Kudo-kun, the war will trouble you a lot!"

General Nishiyama, Major General Kudo and other officers bid farewell to Lieutenant General Ito. Lieutenant General Ito yawned and fell asleep again.

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long. Only 10 minutes later, Lieutenant General Ito, who was meeting his wife and daughter who were destined to never see each other again in his dream, was startled from the camp bed by a loud thunder that was almost at hand. .

"What's going on?" Lieutenant General Ito was shocked.

"Tanks of the China Army! A large number of tanks!" Colonel Nishiyama ran in with an almost ashen face and a lost soul.

With the headquarters of the 101st Division as the center of the circle, within a radius of 500 meters, there is already thick smoke billowing and killing sounds shaking the sky.

The German tanks with blue sky and white sun military emblems sprayed on their steel bodies are roaring, galloping, and charging to their heart's content. They use tank guns and tank machine guns to unceremoniously kill all the people, large and small, who escaped from the houses and tents. The Japanese devils were shrouded in the hail of bullets and bloody wind, and the armored soldiers of the national army who risked their lives to participate in the battle were playing a song with the roar of tank engines, the sound of tank machine gun fire, the bombardment of tank guns, and the howling of ghosts and wolves of the Japanese army. An exciting war march.

"Brothers! Don't let Masaki Ito go! This old devil's head is worth [-] yuan!" In the No. [-] tank of the team leader, Shao Yizhi yelled into the radio with a shiny face.

Shao Yizhi was really excited, because the troops were progressing smoothly.

Faced with an armored group consisting of more than 200 tanks, armored vehicles, and cars, the Japanese army was not only caught off guard, but also helpless.

The group stepped on the accelerator and rampaged along the way. In order to ensure the speed, the group paid a heavy price. There were more than 40 tanks, armored vehicles, and cars along the way. They were hit by Japanese artillery, landmines, or mechanical failures. , It was abandoned directly after breaking down, and it was not only military vehicles, but also many officers and soldiers who were abandoned.

One of the No. [-] tanks had a bad start. It had a mechanical failure in the first battle and broke down halfway through the charge.

Zhang Yun, the deputy commander of the No. [-] Armored Company to which the tank belonged, ordered the five armored soldiers of the tank: "Immediately blow up the tank with a grenade! Climb onto my tank!"

Five armored soldiers grabbed the tank desperately: "What? Blow it up? Are you kidding me! This is the best tank in the world! A new tank that just arrived! Blow it up before firing a single shot? What a pity Already!"

Zhang Yun was also in pain: "We don't have time to dawdle! If we don't blow it up, it will become a trophy for the Japanese army!"

The armored soldiers grieved and said: "It would be better to blow us up! We will fight with it to the last moment!"

The five armored soldiers did not leave the No. [-] tank that had broken down, and together with the tank, they bravely fought against the Japanese troops coming from all directions.

Originally, the No. [-] tank and the five armored soldiers in the tank were sure to die, but a miracle happened. Until the end of the battle, the No. [-] tank and the five armored soldiers were intact, because the Japanese army had no way to destroy them. This Panzer IV.

However, this is only an accidental special case. Most of the military vehicles abandoned on the way and the officers and soldiers who voluntarily abandoned along with the military vehicles were killed in the Japanese counterattack.

In order to ensure maximum speed, clustering is almost unscrupulous.

On the charging road, a small river lay in front of the cluster. The small river was not deep, but it was very wide, and the tanks could not cross it.

At the critical moment, Xu Yuwei, the commander of the No. [-] Armored Company who opened the way ahead, made a decisive decision: "Drive the No. [-] and No. [-] tanks in the team into the river!" His order was to use the No. [-] and No. [-] tanks to form a small steel bridge. After all, the tank is too fragile to bear too much weight.

Although heartbroken, the officers and soldiers quickly carried out the order.

A total of more than 20 No. [-] and No. [-] tanks drove into the river one after another, paving a way for the main force to advance.

After paying a heavy price, the assault group reached the gate of the 20st Division headquarters in one go, with a length and width of more than 101 kilometers. Fish don't slip through the net.

"Kill!" The armored soldiers with high morale and high fighting spirit started killing melons and vegetables inside and outside the Supreme Command of the 101st Division without turning back. The night was surrounded by lightning-like tanks and machine gun firepower. The thunderous fireballs of tank guns shone as brightly as day, and the roaring and shaking made the sky collapse. Amidst the roar of tank motors, teams of national army tanks roared invincibly among the rubble and ruins like steel tigers and wolves. The wind and thunder were rolling, flying sand and rocks, and the walls of the houses were directly smashed and overturned by the tanks. The collapsed walls raised sand and dust into the sky, and the broken bricks and meat under the rolling tanks were thrown into the sky together. The sound and the frightening Japanese screams mixed up to the sky, the bullets of the Golden Snake danced dazzlingly, and the tanks and machine guns shot like pear blossoms in the rainstorm, and the Japanese soldiers were like crops swept by a hurricane. The tanks continued to fall, and the tank shells whizzed away, blasting apart groups of Japanese troops, and the tank tracks continued to engulf clusters of Japanese troops and grind them into a meat grinder like a meat grinder.

Lieutenant General Ito's headquarters is in a courtyard-style private house. When the roar of Chinese army tanks and Chinese shouts of killing sounded from the front, back, left, and right sides, he already knew that he was doomed.

Amid the sound of the wall crashing down, several No. [-] and No. [-] tanks rushed in with overwhelming momentum, and rushed forward loyally to protect Lieutenant General Ito. Like an electric shock, they all danced and turned into pieces of meat.

"Telegram to Kudo Brigade Commander!" Lieutenant General Ito said calmly, "The 101st Division will be handed over to him next!"

"Your Excellency, head of the division, how about you?" Colonel Xishan looked at him in panic.

Lieutenant General Ito calmly took down the flag of the 101st Division in the room, wrapped it with two unfused grenades, put them tightly on his abdomen, and shouted at the same time: "Long live His Majesty the Emperor!"

"Boom!" Lieutenant General Yito and the flag of the 101st Division were blown to pieces in the thunderbolt of blood.

Chapter 214 Thunderbolt (4)

Jiang Weiguo's tank assault group had achieved great success in this nighttime "small blitz" against the 101st Division. It not only destroyed the division headquarters of the 101st Division in one fell swoop, but also killed Lieutenant General Ito Masaki, the division commander, and the division commander. More than a dozen senior officers, including Chief of Staff Fukutaro Nishiyama (Lieutenant General Ito actually committed suicide with a grenade, and the national army failed to capture the flag of the 101st Division because of this), also caused damage to the 101st Division. Heavy loss of troops.

Hundreds of tanks, armored vehicles, and cars full of armed national army officers and soldiers galloped across the Japanese-controlled area, killing and wounding more than [-] Japanese soldiers, and completely plunged the Japanese army into chaos and even collapse. In order to cover this "blitzkrieg", the national army on the western battlefield of Sandun Town launched an all-out attack on the Japanese army. Feint-style full-scale attack" is "forced attack-style full-scale attack".

Facts have proved that Huang Wei's order is very correct. The 101st Division has been at the end of its battle after days of fierce fighting. Now that the division headquarters has been destroyed and there is a tank assault group killing people and destroying it, the whole division is completely on the verge of collapse. At this point, in the face of the full-scale attack of the national army, Major General Kudo, who took over the command of Lieutenant General Ito, was simply unable to organize an effective defense or counterattack, and the entire division fell apart and fell apart.

"Let it go! Let it go! Let it go!" On the position of the 14th Heavy Artillery Regiment, as Huang Guoshu shouted hoarsely and again and again to fire orders, waves of volcanic flames rose from the ground, blasting through the air into the Japanese-controlled area. Boiling fireballs and broken limbs flying all over the sky like mushrooms after the rain.

The 14th Heavy Artillery Regiment first destroyed the Japanese heavy artillery position under the radio guidance of the special forces, and then bombarded the Japanese infantry crowd with a gust of wind and rain.

At five o'clock in the morning, a large group of national army planes came to join the battle, adding another sumptuous meal to this "Japanese killing feast".

In order to reinforce Jiang Weiguo as much as possible, Zhou Zhirou dispatched all the air force bombers.

The national army bombers flying over the heads of the Japanese army unceremoniously bombarded the Japanese troops scurrying around on the ground (in order to prevent accidental injury to their own troops, and it was dawn, and a large number of Chinese and foreign reporters were watching from the side of the battlefield, so the national army bombers The group did not throw gas bombs, they threw conventional bombs), and further blew the already dying 101st Division to the brink of hell.

"Good! Good! Good!" In the headquarters of the former enemy in Hudong, Chen Cheng looked at the news of success sent by the troops with joy, and the more he watched, the more he became more and more elated and open-minded. At this point in the battle, the 101st Division is doomed. up.

The 101st Brigade of the division is lingering in Sandun Town. The 102nd Brigade and the 101st Field Artillery Regiment, the 101st Engineer Regiment, the 101st Regiment Regiment, the Communications Team, the Health Team and other units directly under the division At this time, they had already been strangled on the battlefield in the west of Sandun Town, and could no longer launch a counterattack.

"This hard bone has been gnawed for so long, and it's finally going to be broken! It's not easy!" Chen Cheng couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Objectively speaking, the biggest reason why the national army fought so hard was that the 101st Division had been greatly strengthened. The total strength of the division was as high as 3.6, and there was also a field heavy artillery brigade to assist in the battle. The difficulty of eating it is no less than eating two normal first-class divisions.

After fighting so hard and finally seeing the dawn of victory, Chen Cheng was naturally very excited.

"Resignation!" Guo Rugui strode into the headquarters with a clouded face, "Chairman's telegram!"

"Oh?" Chen Cheng hurriedly took the telegram, and just glanced at it, his expression was immediately gloomy like Guo Rugui's.

The content of the telegram is as follows: If conditions permit, the camera can be used to wipe out the enemy's 101st Division.

Jiang Zhongzheng

Chen Cheng was stunned for a full minute, and then smiled wryly.

"Resignation, the chairman is really... alas!" Guo Rugui sighed.

Chen Cheng put down the telegram, full of bitterness: "My chairman... At first, it was the 101st Brigade of Total Annihilation, and it was finally completed, and you became the 101st Brigade of Total Annihilation. Now it is about to be completed, but you have changed again. The 101st Division has been wiped out! The military order is like a mountain, how can it be changed overnight!" Although he was loyal to Chiang Kai-shek, he couldn't help feeling strongly against Chiang Kai-shek's approach.

"How about... let the second son talk to the chairman?" Guo Rugui tentatively suggested.

Chen Cheng shook his head helplessly and powerlessly: "It won't work, Jiang Weiguo... He just got into a catastrophe, and it's too late to hide from the old man. How dare you... Forget it! Forget it!"

The dawn of victory on the Hudong battlefield was faintly shrouded in a shadow by this telegram from Chiang Kai-shek. Nevertheless, the overall situation of the battle has indeed turned to the Chinese army in an all-round way.

The 102nd Brigade was no longer able to rescue the 101st Brigade. Lieutenant General Hata Jun-[-] ordered the Miura Detachment and Shigeto Detachment to attack Sandun Town with all their might. event.

At noon, the Shigeto Detachment, the 5th Mixed Infantry Brigade of the Puppet Manchukuo Army, and the 7th Cavalry Brigade of the Puppet Manchukuo Army attacked the 58th Division of Yuji Shibu. Two brigades were deployed to reinforce the Miura detachment. As a result, the puppet Manchukuo army who saw some troops from the Shigeto detachment evacuated suddenly exploded:

"The shriveled calf has run away! The shit is going to cover this place with artillery fire!"

"Damn it! The brothers of the Tenth Brigade were killed by the dog's naval guns!"

"Anyway, it's death! Brothers, fight with the grandson!"

"I'm working hard for them, they don't care about my life! Kill them!"

In yesterday's battle, the Japanese army used the 10th Mixed Infantry Brigade of the Puppet Manchukuo Army as bait and cannon fodder, deliberately driving it to start a melee with the 51st Division of the National Army. The national army was blown up together, and this matter was soon known to all the puppet Manchukuo army. It is conceivable how intense the hatred, resentment, and anger in the hearts of the puppet Manchukuo army officers and soldiers were.

At this time, seeing the Shigeto detachment that had been fighting with him begin to retreat, the officers and soldiers of the puppet Manchukuo army mistakenly thought that the Japanese army was going to repeat their old tricks, and immediately burst into anger.

In fact, the Puppet Manchukuo Army did "wrong" the Japanese army, because all four battleships in the Japanese fleet were beaten away, and they could no longer use that tactic. Knowing that the Japanese don't care about their life or death at all, and are going to blow them up with the national army.

Although the family members are all hostages in the Northeast, the officers and soldiers of the Puppet Manchukuo Army are desperate.

The officers and soldiers of the puppet Manchukuo army, who were completely red-eyed, turned their backs collectively in an instant, turned around and rushed to the Chongteng detachment.

On the positions of the Japanese and puppet troops, the puppet Manchukuo army and the Japanese army (Taiwanese Japanese army) killed each other, and the cavalry of the puppet Manchukuo army galloped freely among the Japanese army crowd, slashing and killing the Japanese soldiers' heads like watermelons rolling everywhere.

Yu Jishi, who saw this scene, was overjoyed, and immediately ordered the whole division to launch a comprehensive counterattack, successfully defeating the Chongteng detachment in one fell swoop, and most of the officers and soldiers of the 5th Infantry Brigade and 7th Cavalry Brigade of the Puppet Manchukuo Army turned their backs and surrendered to the national army. Not long after, most of the officers and soldiers of the 10th Infantry Brigade and 1st Cavalry Brigade of the Puppet Manchukuo Army also surrendered to the national army.

In the evening of the same day, Gu Zhutong's 5th Army arrived in Hudong to participate in the battle, and the Sichuan Army's 23rd Army was about to arrive in Hudong. The arrival of these two vital forces enabled the national army to completely grasp the initiative on the Hudong battlefield.

Considering that the Japanese army might dispatch reinforcements to land in Hudong at any time, Chen Cheng decided to "concentrate on a local annihilation war" and put the 5th Army into Sandun Town to ensure that the 101st Brigade could not escape.

It is very reasonable for Chen Cheng to do so, and the logic is ready-made: according to the latest instructions of the "old man", there are still many uncertain factors to eat the 101st division. After all, if the Japanese army lands another division in Hudong, the battle will happen again Reversal, instead of being insatiable, it is better to accept it as soon as it is good, and make sure to eat the 101st brigade. Even if the 101st division is not eaten by then, the "old man" will be lighter when he gets angry; , The 101st Division will be eaten as soon as it comes up, but the national army is also very tense. In case of any accident, the 101st Division will break through. Not only will it fail to eat the big fish of the 101st Division, but it will also The 101st Brigade, which was already in the net, ran away, which was not a small fish. The real bamboo basket was empty, and the "old man" got angry to confirm that Longyan was furious, and the consequences would be serious.

At this point in the battle, even if Amaterasu appeared, it would not be able to save the 101st Brigade's fate.

At noon on October 10, the national army completely captured Sandun Town and formally wiped out the 9st Brigade of the 101st Division of the Japanese Army. They were all burned under the order of Major General Sato), and the bodies of the brigade commander, Major General Sato Shozaburo, and the regiment commander, Tsuda Tatsuhiko, were not found (later, it was found out that both died of poisonous gas, Tsuda Osaku was poisoned to death on the spot, and Major General Sato was in the Two days after being poisoned, they died in great pain. The bodies of the two were burned and buried by the guards. This is what the two confessed before their death ("Don't let your corpses become the spoils and exhibits of the Chinese people"), but they were floating in the ruins of Sandun Town. The blue sky and white sun flag on it is enough to prove that the Chinese army wiped out the 101st Brigade.

There was no time to cheer and celebrate. The national army that captured Sandun Town left a small number of troops to clean the battlefield, collect trophies, wipe out Japanese stragglers, and collect the remains of the dead. The main force quickly withdrew from Sandun Town. Covering Sandun Town is also because there is a new task of "wiping out the 101st Division" waiting for the officers and soldiers to continue fighting.

The 101st Division is composed of the 101st Brigade and the 102nd Brigade. Since the 101st Brigade has been eaten up, and the 102nd Brigade has also suffered heavy losses and is half dead, it is time to eat up the first brigade without going all out. When will the 102nd brigade achieve the brilliant record of "annihilating a division of the Japanese army"?Based on such a simple logic, Chiang Kai-shek's confidence and appetite increased again after the big victory, and he asked Chen Cheng to make persistent efforts to eat the 102nd brigade in order to achieve "the final victory in the Hudong battle."

If you want more gains, you need to invest more. Chiang Kai-shek is naturally very clear about this simple truth. Under his order, in addition to the 5th Army, the Sichuan Army's 23rd Army also participated in the battle in Shanghai and East. The 2nd, 11th Army and The 60th Army also marched towards Hudong with the stars and the moon.

Counting these troops, the national army has invested more than 10 group armies in the Songhu battle, and the cumulative number of troops participating in the battle has exceeded 90. Half of them have participated in the battle and half are on the road.

On the morning of October 10th, Jiang Weiguo returned to Nanjing again. This was the first time he returned to Nanjing after the "Tokyo Bay Incident". "Go see Chiang Kai-shek again.

As soon as he arrived in Nanjing, Jiang Weiguo was taken aback, because Nanjing was in the midst of a city full of jubilation. The streets were full of parades of all kinds, and countless happy faces gathered into a mighty sea of ​​people. Exciting and even radical slogans resounded continuously over Nanjing like thunder and tsunami. The sound of various slogans formed a huge wave of deafening sound.

"Long live Generalissimo Jiang! Long live the national army!" "The war of resistance must be won!" The angry slogans of the crowd passed Jiang Weiguo's eyes.
