Chapter 826 Eliminating the Threat on the Sea
Zhang Yunhe knew very well that blowing up bridges and roads could only stop the Japanese for a while, not forever. It could only slow down the Japanese advance to the greatest extent possible, giving the military and civilians on the island a little time to make the next defensive deployment.
The Japanese squadron was a big threat. Surrounded by the sea on three sides, the Japanese warships could bombard any corner of the island with naval guns at any time.
After Zhang Yunhe finished his call with the commander of the first regiment, Yang Xiong, he immediately called the headquarters of the second regiment.
"I'm Zhang Yunhe, let's have the Second Regiment Leader Zhou Yaodong answer the phone."
"Please wait a moment, sir."
After a few seconds, Zhou Yaodong's voice came from the phone: "Commander, this is Zhou Yaodong"
"How is the second regiment preparing?" Zhang Yunhe asked.
Zhou Yaodong said on the phone: "Be ready to fight the devils to the death at any time."
"Okay, you will immediately lead the Second Regiment into Area 1 and hide there. Do not reveal your position or attack the enemy without my order."
"Yes, Commander!"
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Yunhe lit a cigarette. Fierce gunfire and explosions were still coming from the north outside the window. It seemed that the Japanese were still attacking and the defenders were still resisting.
After smoking a cigarette, Zhang Yunhe returned to the bedroom, closed the door, quickly put on his Iron Blood gear, opened the window and climbed onto the roof.
After reaching the roof, take out the spaceship landing craft from the backpack space, and then drive the landing craft towards the sea in the northeast direction.
On the sea, the Japanese fleet's naval guns were still firing, and the British army's various military defense fortifications in the eastern part of the new district were under bombardment.
Some smaller bunkers and artillery positions were destroyed due to their insufficient anti-artillery capabilities, but the British army still used sufficient materials in the construction of several large bunkers and defensive fortresses. The naval guns on cruisers and destroyers were not enough to destroy them. The existence of these large bunkers also hindered the Japanese advance speed to a certain extent.
When he arrived over the Japanese fleet, Zhang Yunhe did not hold back and dropped 20 large aerial bombs weighing several hundred pounds, turning the two cruisers into a sea of fire. The explosion also triggered the detonation of artillery shells on the decks of the ships.
After the explosion, the decks of the two cruisers became a ruin. The decks were in disarray, with large areas sunken or bulging. All the gun turrets collapsed, the bridges were deflated, the masts fell, and all the weapon systems were destroyed. No one was left alive.
Zhang Yunhe was quite satisfied with the results of this round of airdrops. The accuracy of the throwing was still very high, and everything that should be blown up was blown up.
Next were three destroyers. Zhang Yunhe prepared 30 aerial bombs for them. Each of them was subjected to the explosion of 10 aerial bombs weighing hundreds of pounds. The deck of one destroyer was pierced by an aerial bomb, and another bomb fell into the bottom of the cabin and broke the main keel, causing the entire ship to break into two and slowly sink.
The Japanese on the remaining three frigates saw the continuous violent explosions on the main ship and had no idea what was happening. Almost everyone stood on the deck to watch.
"Contact the commander quickly. What happened? Why did such a big explosion happen? Was we attacked or was there a chain reaction?" The captain of a frigate gave orders to the communications personnel.
Before any news could be transmitted back, the remaining three frigates and a supply ship were quickly hit by aerial bombs dropped from the sky. Anyone on the deck, unless they jumped into the sea in advance, would have had almost no chance of survival under such dense and violent explosions.
Every battleship was burning and no more shells were fired.
The attacking Japanese soldiers, the defending British and merchant corps soldiers, and everyone who was paying attention to the situation on the battlefield were stunned by the situation on the sea.
Zhang Yunhe did not stop there. He dived down in the landing craft and dropped a torpedo on each ship. The torpedoes specifically attacked the weak points in the defense of the ships locked by the landing craft.
"Boom boom boom..." Another series of explosions sounded, and flames shot up into the sky. All the ships attacked by torpedoes were blown into two pieces and slowly sank to the bottom of the sea.
The Japanese soldiers hiding under the cabin never had a chance to come out.
38th Division Headquarters.
"Ding-ling-ling..." The phone rang quickly.
The operations officer picked up the call and listened for a moment before turning to Sano Tadayoshi and saying, "Your Excellency, Division Commander, this is an emergency. The fleet supporting us has come under attack from an unknown source and is completely defenseless!"
"What? Contact the fleet commander quickly." Sano Tadayoshi was shocked and immediately gave the order after hearing this.
The people at the communications office immediately sent a telegram to the fleet, but received no reply for a long time.
After five minutes, Sano Tadayoshi sensed something was wrong and immediately ordered, "Send someone to the scene to check the situation. Go quickly!"
"Hayi!"
A minute later, Chief of Staff Sulin Tadamichi asked, "Your Excellency, Division Commander, should we continue the offensive on the front line?"
Sano Tadayoshi was stunned for a moment, then asked, "How many of the island's defenses have been destroyed?"
"Except for a few large bunkers and fortifications that were too strong and the caliber of the ship's guns was too small, most of the others were destroyed. The rest were also severely damaged and the defense force was insufficient," said Sulin Zhongdao.
Sano Tadayoshi thought for a moment and said, "Order the troops to continue the attack and capture the entire new area before dawn!"
"Ha Yi"
As the merchant corps retreated under Zhang Yunhe's order, the British army could no longer resist and fled southward like a tide. Many people even threw away their guns and ammunition just to run faster.
Around three o'clock in the morning, the first regiment of the Merchant Corps retreated to Kowloon. The bridges and roads ahead were blown up. If the Japanese wanted to advance, it would take at least three to five days to repair the roads and build simple bridges for passage. Mechanized cars, trucks, armored tanks, etc. could not get through in a short time.
Now that the threat from the Japanese on the sea has been resolved, as long as there is no threat from the sea or air, Zhang Yunhe is confident that with the more than 10,000 people under his command, plus the British troops, and with sufficient ammunition and supplies, they will have no problem holding out for a few months.
Moreover, the Merchant Corps' armed forces are constantly recruiting new soldiers and training pilots. If they have sufficient troops, with 20,000 to 30,000 people, they can use the terrain to completely stop the Japanese. After all, this place is so small. If there is no sea or air threat, the Japanese will not be able to deploy their troops no matter how many they have.
But it is obvious that the Japanese cannot deploy a large number of troops here. Their main purpose is to occupy territory and plunder resources. Apart from the geographical advantage, this island has no resources at all.
At daybreak, most of the defenders in the new district retreated to Kowloon in a panic, but some troops remained and had no time to retreat, mainly because they had not received the retreat order from the British command, so these people were naturally captured by the Japanese.
