Sword of Light: I Can Summon the Fourth Disaster

"Okay! Remember this."

"Comrade Zhou Jue, I hope you can do your best to stop the enemy coming from Wujun and make sure they can't move forward! The situation on the Wusong battlefield depends on your troops. I hope you can carry forward your spirit and strike a head-on blow to the enemy in front of you."

After the clerk left, Li Qingping cleared his throat and looked at the staff officers present.

"Now the entire Wusong battlefield has been mobilized. I just need you to give me a guarantee."

"Make sure that during the entire Wusong Campaign, you can keep the information between the headquarters and the front-line units flowing smoothly!"

"Yes!"

.......

Jinjiaqiao

Zhou Jue's Second Detachment had already set up blocking positions along both sides of the Liuhe River. Looking at the Japanese planes circling in the sky, Zhou Jue's eyes showed a solemn look.

Li Qi, the political commissar of the Second Detachment, had just returned from logistics and looked a little worried.

Zhou Jue saw that Li Qi looked a little strange, and asked, "What's wrong? Is there a problem with the logistics?"

Li Qi shook his head slightly and said with some concern: "Our detachment is now completely exposed to the sight of the devils."

Hearing this, Zhou Jue chuckled and said, "Haha, even though our detachment has made its cards clear, the Japs will not be our opponent in a head-on confrontation."

"Old Zhou, we are not in Shanxi now. We have a large number of officers in the front, and the air force in the sky to coordinate the operations."

Li Qi was obviously not optimistic about this battle, because this time they did not launch an attack from the west of Shanghai, but used several regiments to tie down the Japanese in Xiuzhou, and the main force penetrated into the Wusong area, preparing to take both places in one fell swoop.

Although the combat effectiveness of several detachments was good, the logistical advantage of the Jiangsu-Zhejiang Column could not be demonstrated because it suddenly penetrated into the enemy's hinterland.

"Now there is enemy-occupied territory in front of us and behind us. Our logistics can't get through at all. You have to save your bullets."

Hearing that Li Qi was worried about this, Zhou Jue smiled with relief.

"Old Li, your worry is totally unnecessary."

"When we left Xiuzhou, several columns set out from Lin'an. Now, as long as we block the enemy's attack from the front in Liuhe, there will be troops behind us to wipe out the enemy!"

"Although our actions may seem dangerous, many things are within Mr. Li's calculations, so don't worry."

Before he could finish his words, he heard a few "boom" sounds, and a lot of dirt leaked from the roof of their command post.

The chief of staff, who was still outside the headquarters, hurried in and said with a smile: "The bird has been caught in the net. The Japanese planes can't hold back and have launched an attack on our position."

When Zhou Jue heard this, he quickly asked, "Has our anti-aircraft artillery regiment taken action?"

Chief of Staff Zhang Sheng nodded and said with a smile: "Just when the Japanese planes dived, an anti-aircraft artillery battalion of the B0309 regiment fired a salvo and shot down four Japanese planes."

Upon hearing this victory result, Zhou Jue's solemn expression eased slightly, and then a hint of joy appeared on his face.

"If the war situation develops in this way, the Japanese planes will be able to launch this wave of attacks."

Before Zhou Jue finished speaking, the phones in the headquarters started ringing one after another.

"Team Zhou, the B0314 regiment anti-aircraft artillery battalion sent a message that an enemy plane was shot down."

"Team Zhou, the anti-aircraft artillery battalion of the B0319 regiment sent a message that two Japanese planes were shot down over the right wing position."

"Team Zhou, the B0309 regiment has sent a message that three Japanese planes have been shot down over the left wing position."

"Team Zhou..."

One after another, staff officers picked up the phones on the table. They were all from the Second Detachment's anti-aircraft artillery battalion and regiment, reporting on their battle results.

Summarizing the data one by one, Li Qi said excitedly: "This first round of attack destroyed an entire Japanese flying squadron."

Zhou Jue waved his hand and said, "Not only that, the B0309 regiment's left wing position should have shot down seven Japanese planes. Now it depends on how the Japanese infantry does."

"Lao Zhang, which regiment are we going to meet first?"

"It's the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Regiments directly under the detachment." Zhang Sheng took a look at the hanging map and reported.

Upon hearing that there were three directly affiliated regiments, Zhou Jue nodded in understanding.

"Although our Second Detachment doesn't have a single team, the three regiments combined have 9,000 people. Send them a message and tell them to kill all the Japs that are attacking them head-on!"

"Yes!"

........

Second Brigade directly under the First Regiment

The commander of the first regiment, Qian Tangjun, brushed off the dust on his hat and joked with the other two commanders in the command center.

"It seems like Team One is doing pretty well. We can tell from the enemy's attacks that they are very anxious!"

Upon hearing this, the Second Regiment Commander Feng Yasong put down his telescope and said with a smile, "The enemy in front of us is as large as a division."

"I just went to the frontline to take a look. There are tanks, armored vehicles, heavy artillery and everything else. It looks like they are no less capable than those regular divisions."

The third regiment commander, Wu Peiqi, carefully observed the map on the table and said in a deep voice, "Based on the speed of the semi-motorized Japanese troops, they shouldn't be able to confront us so soon."

"And judging from the last round of shelling, there were some 150mm howitzers mixed in. We are facing a tough opponent."

Hearing this, Feng Yasong squinted his eyes and glanced at the direction where the artillery sound came from, and said with a smile: "Their artillery has been completely exposed to the firing range of the B0301 regiment. I believe it will soon become a pile of scrap metal. As for the remaining infantry, I want to see how tough these tough guys are!"

Before Feng Yasong finished speaking, Qian Tangjun said in a deep voice: "The detachment leader gave us a death order, and I will also give you a death order. Kill this devil division in front of you!"

"understand!"

"no problem!"

Just as the three men reached a consensus, the B0301 Regiment on the flank began to counterattack. A rocket artillery battalion launched a wave of fire coverage at the coordinates calculated by the artillery staff, and the Japanese artillery positions were caught in the explosion.

The commander of the first battalion of the first regiment, Banlu, felt that no more Japanese artillery shells had landed on the battlefield, and said excitedly: "Brothers, the Japanese artillery has stopped firing, it's our turn now!"

"Follow me to the front, plug the gap, and kill the devils who dare to pull our tiger's whiskers!"

Soldiers of the first battalion came out of the anti-artillery caves one after another, treated the wounded, and blocked the gaps in the fortifications.

The artillery deployed behind the position also began their performance.

Mountain artillery, large-caliber mortars and howitzers were fired at the front battlefield in the direction of the Japanese attack.

Violent explosions resounded on the front battlefield, catching the Japanese off guard.
