Anti-Japanese War, weapons designer at Fengtian Arsenal

On the morning of the 20th, China and Japan ended the ceasefire and a new battle began.

The third commander of the Japanese was Army General Kenkichi Ueda. After observing the map, he found that the weak point of the 19th Route Army's defense line was in the middle.

The northern part of the Chinese defense line is the Punishment Army, and the southern part is the 87th and 88th Divisions, both of which are elite troops with strong combat effectiveness. In comparison, the central area defended by the 19th Route Army is much weaker. Therefore, Kenkichi Ueda ordered a fierce attack on the central part of the 19th Route Army!

There was another round of artillery fire and air bombing. Before the attack, the Japanese troops plowed the central position of the 19th Route Army, causing heavy casualties to the soldiers of the 19th Route Army. Then the Japanese concentrated their forces and, under the cover of a large number of tanks and armored vehicles, went straight into the 19th Route Army's defense line!

This was the second time the Japanese had used this method of attacking by clenching their fists. General Cai had dealt with it once and had some experience. The key was not to fight hard, but to let the Japanese get into street fighting and gradually wear down their manpower, so that their fists, which they had clenched with great difficulty, would hit cotton, and the force would be removed, and the offensive would be resolved.

General Cai immediately mobilized his troops and started a fierce battle with the Japanese in the urban area. However, this time, the Japanese were no longer the attacking party. The punitive troops on the northern defense line also launched an attack!

When the Japanese launched artillery fire, the punitive troops were also firing artillery. They aimed their artillery at the Japanese on the other side of the Huangpu River and fired fiercely. The shells hit the trenches where the Japanese lived accurately, and each shell could take the life of one or two Japanese.

Last night, we sent a special forces team to the other side of the river in the dark to mark the enemy trenches and military stations on the map, just for the current shelling!

The focus of the Japanese attack was not the defense zone of the Punishment Army, so the number of Japanese soldiers left on the other side of the Huangpu River was limited. The purpose of their existence was only to prevent the Punishment Army from crossing the river. Now after such a bombing, there are not many left.

The punitive army bombarded for more than half an hour, blowing up most of the Japanese coastal defense forces on the opposite bank. After destroying the Japanese river defense fortifications, the artillery turned to fire smoke bombs at the forced crossing area.

Smoke bombs exploded on the beach, and the white smoke completely blocked the Japs' sight. The Punishment Army immediately began to force a crossing.

The assault boats captured from the Japanese were put to use. Heavy ammunition soldiers, in groups of two, carried the speedboats to the riverside and threw them into the river. Then the punitive army infantry rushed onto the speedboats, with more than 20 people on each boat, filling up the space on the speedboats.

They mounted a Czech machine gun on the bow of the speedboat, and other soldiers held ceramic steel shields. When everything was ready, the speedboat started the engine and rushed to the opposite bank 400 meters away.

During the speedboat crossing, the punitive army's artillery fire never stopped, the machine gun bunkers suppressed the fire, and the assault boats rushed to the shore with artillery shells on the top and heavy machine gun bullets behind them.

It was not known whether the previous artillery preparation worked or there were too many smoke bombs on the shore, but the first batch of 1 speedboats arrived at the other side. Two hundred punitive army soldiers jumped off the speedboats and rushed into the smoke. At this time, the Japanese still did not attack.

The 10 speedboats dropped off the soldiers and immediately turned around to return. They were going to transport a new batch of soldiers. This time they not only transported soldiers, but also heavy machine guns and mortars.

200 punitive army soldiers rushed through the smoke and into the Japanese beachhead, where they encountered the Japanese and the two sides began fighting.

The Japanese dug a lot of trenches here, but many Japanese soldiers were killed by artillery bombs. The Japanese soldiers left in the trenches could not form a defense. The punitive troops rushed out of the smoke and shot with submachine guns. The Japanese soldiers were shot to death. The punitive troops occupied a trench and then expanded the occupied area.

At this time, the speedboat came back with the second wave of troops. This time there were heavy weapons added. The Punishment Army expanded the landing beach faster. The assault boat returned and started the third wave. They had to transport tanks in the third wave.

Big Machine made a hollow flat-bottomed boat of the Da type using No. 2 ceramic steel. This thing has been tested using the seawater of the island space. The flat-bottomed boat can make a Renault tank float.

But the sea surface in the island space is calm and peaceful. They now have to cross the flowing Huangpu River. It is unknown whether this thing can be successful.

The punitive soldiers used prefabricated ceramic steel panels to build a simple dock by the river. Two bulldozers pushed the flat-bottomed boat to the dock and pushed it into the river. The soldiers quickly tied the flat-bottomed boat to the dock, and then a Renault tank drove onto the dock and then used the horse head to get to the flat-bottomed boat.

The soldiers tied the tank tightly with iron chains, and then connected two speedboats to both sides of the flat-bottomed boat to provide power.

The power of the two speedboats was enough to push the flat-bottomed boat, but the speed was very slow. Moreover, the water in the Huangpu River was flowing, and the connection between the three floating objects was unstable. The punitive soldiers driving the speedboats could hear obvious friction sounds, which made them nervous.

Fortunately, there was no danger. Six or seven minutes later, they successfully sent the flat-bottomed boat to the shore, untied the ropes, and the Renault tank drove onto the beach and rushed into the front-line combat point.

At this point, someone might ask, isn't there a portal? Why not just send one person across the river and open the portal to send the main force out?

That's because Li Qinwu was considering the future and wanted to accumulate valuable experience in forced crossing for the Punishment Army.

In the future, the Punishment Army must expand and absorb a large number of mortal troops. At that time, the main task of the clone will be to serve as an officer. Li Qinwu will not be able to abuse the portal and must return to conventional tactics. Now is the opportunity to accumulate experience.

However, Li Qinwu was not a dogmatic person. After confirming that the soldiers of the Punishment Army had gained enough experience, he immediately opened a portal on the other side of the river and sent the large army and other tanks across.

The Punishment Army's forced crossing was too fast this time, and the Japanese had no time to react and were pushed off the beachhead in an instant.

The punitive army pushed forward all the way, rushing directly into the city and engaging in street fighting with the Japanese.
