The War of Resistance Against Japan: Special Operations Battalion Traverses Shanghai and Slaughters

Long Fei was both amused and exasperated by this system, which could even have intelligent dialogue. He asked with a wry smile.

"Okay, I won't tell you anymore, just tell me what the reward is this time."

"Reward 1: A field hospital, three doctors, ten nurses, and corresponding medical surgical instruments and medical supplies."

This reward was a timely help for Long Fei, since medical first aid kits and sulfonamide powder could only provide temporary relief on the battlefield and could not provide comprehensive treatment for the wounded.

"Okay, thank you. Anything else?"

"Second reward: 20 M2 Browning heavy machine guns, with 1 million rounds of standard ammunition and 100,000 rounds of other types of ammunition."

"Hmm, not bad, this gun is powerful and very suitable for dealing with the Japanese devils now." Long Fei was genuinely satisfied with the gun.

"Reward three: 2,000 Type 42 wooden box anti-personnel mines, 2,000 Type 43 glass mines, and 2,000 Type 35 S-type bounding mines, also known as bouncing betty, produced in the Hans country."

"Haha, this reward is pretty good too. It will make those little devils suffer a lot." Long Fei couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Reward four: 1,000 boxes of penicillin and 1,000 vials of anesthetic."

"Reward 5: 500,000 rounds of MG34 machine gun ammunition, 500 Tiger tank shells, 500 Wespe self-propelled gun shells, and 2,000 M24 stick grenades."

"The rewards have been announced and all have been stored in the system warehouse."

Seeing that the system was about to remain silent again, Long Fei hurriedly asked.

"System, wait a minute, besides the reward items, can I store other items in the system warehouse?"

"Yes, there is a storage room in the system warehouse that can store everything, including items from outside the system."

Long Fei asked this question because he couldn't possibly let the soldiers discard the weapons and equipment they brought from the transmigration; that would be too wasteful. Perhaps they could replenish these weapons and ammunition after upgrading to a certain level.

If the system now agrees to store it in the storage room, Long Fei's problem will be solved.

As darkness fell, Long Fei returned to the stage.

Looking at the corpses of the rebels who had been shot by Chen Defa, Long Fei felt no pity.

In Long Fei's mind, any soldier with guts and courage can die in battle, but must never surrender.

"Brother, the 23rd Regiment of the 36th Brigade of the Japanese army has taken Wuqiao Town and successfully crossed the Huangpu River."

"Only a small squad and some supplies are left here. What do we do next?"

Long Fei gazed at the Huangpu River not far away, his brows furrowed.

Long Fei was still quite disappointed. It seemed that the plan to eliminate the fighting force of the 36th Brigade of the Japanese army was probably not going to work.

Japanese warships patrolled back and forth on the Huangpu River. The Special Operations Battalion and the 37th Brigade did not have ferries, and even if they did, they would not be able to cross the river.

However, Long Fei was not one to give up easily. Since he couldn't eliminate the Japanese army, he decided to shift his focus to the Japanese warships.

After making up his mind, Long Fei said to Chen Defa, "Brigade Commander Chen, you two rest here for now. I'll go scout out the situation and we'll talk when I get back."

"Brother, I'll go with you."

Chen De found himself addicted to fighting the Japanese alongside Long Fei and couldn't sit still, so he volunteered to go along.

Long Fei did not refuse, nodded, and handed Chen Defa a low-light telescope.

"Here's a telescope for you. Let's set off now."

Long Fei didn't bring many people with him. Besides Deputy Battalion Commander Xu Peng and Chief of Staff Gao Hong, he only brought a guard platoon.

Upon arriving at the Huangpu River, Long Fei immediately picked up his binoculars and began to observe.

Unfortunately, it was already dark, and the Japanese soldiers on the other side had stopped fighting, so Long Fei looked for a long time but found nothing.

Since he couldn't see anything from the other side, Long Fei turned the low-light telescope to the surface of the river.

Japanese destroyers patrolling the river daytime used their naval guns to continuously bombard the Nationalist army positions on the opposite bank, providing artillery support for the army.

Now that the Japanese army has ceased combat, their destroyers are also resting on the river, waiting to resume operations the next day at dawn.

Using the dim lights on the destroyer, Long Fei carefully observed and confirmed that there were three Japanese warships on this section of the river.

Furthermore, Long Fei was able to identify the warship's hull number.

They are the "Tianlong", "Longtian", and "Chunfeng".

This gave Long Fei another bold idea.

"Xu Peng, Gao Hong, write down the exact coordinates of these three destroyers."

After saying that, Long Fei handed over the binoculars.

Then Long Fei pulled Chen Defa to a secluded spot, took out a cigarette, and handed it to Chen Defa.

The two lit cigarettes, took a few puffs, and then Long Fei spoke.

“Brigade Commander Chen, my previous battle plan now seems to be scrapped. Who knew that the 733rd Regiment would be wiped out so quickly and that the Japanese would cross the Huangpu River smoothly.”

Chen Defa sighed deeply and took a deep drag on his cigarette.

"Brother, it's alright. The situation on the battlefield is always changing rapidly. But do you have any new plans for the future?"

Long Fei nodded and pointed to the river, saying, "My new plan is to sink these three Japanese warships."

"What? You want to sink three Japanese warships..."

Long Fei's bold idea once again shocked Chen Defa.

Long Fei explained, "That's right. As far as I know, these three Japanese warships are all destroyers, equipped with 140mm and 155mm caliber naval guns."

"Such large-caliber naval guns would cause serious damage to the National Army's fortifications and also cause a large number of casualties."

After hearing this, Chen Defa agreed, saying, "Brother, you're absolutely right. But without torpedoes, how can we sink it?"

Long Fei confidently replied, "I may not have torpedoes, but I do have armor-piercing shells and high-explosive shells."

"Tanks attacking warships? That's never happened before!"

Chen Defa was almost speechless again. He looked at Long Fei intently, unable to understand how this young man could have so many strange and unusual ideas.

"Haha, Brigade Commander Chen, that's right, I want to use tanks to sink the Japanese destroyers."

"The steel on the Japanese destroyers is only a few tens of millimeters thick, while the armor-piercing shells on my tanks have a range of over two thousand meters. They can easily penetrate steel plates of about one hundred millimeters from 1,400 meters away."

"In addition, high-explosive shells can cause massive casualties to the personnel on Japanese warships."

Although Chen Defa was a graduate of the Whampoa Military Academy, he had only studied military knowledge related to the army, and what Long Fei was talking about was completely foreign to him.

Although he didn't understand, after Long Fei's analysis, Chen Defa no longer thought it was wishful thinking.

"Alright, brother, I'm definitely going to watch closely how you use tanks to sink the Japanese warships."

By this time, Xu Peng and Gao Hong had already recorded the exact coordinates of the three Japanese warships.

"Reporting to the battalion commander, coordinates recorded."

"Okay, we'll go back right away."

Long Fei nodded, waved, and led everyone back to Wuqiao Town.

Upon returning, Long Fei immediately announced to everyone that he planned to use tanks to sink the three Japanese warships anchored on the Huangpu River.

Although everyone was surprised, no one expressed any objection.

After all, with Long Fei's strategic planning, they won several crushing victories in a row, so who would still question Long Fei's abilities?

Afterwards, Long Fei let Chen Defa rest for a while, and then led the special forces members who had previously operated the Tiger tank to the back of a grove of trees.

Long Fei had calculated that this location was approximately 1,200 to 1,500 meters from the Japanese warship.

The Tiger tank has a firing range of about two thousand meters, and the position that Long Fei chose was not only at a very suitable distance.

The key is that the tank can fire its cannon from behind the trees, which can hide the flash of the cannon barrel as much as possible and avoid being discovered by the Japanese.

Then Long Fei retrieved all ten Tiger tanks from the system warehouse, and had everyone enter the tanks to adjust their positions and the firing coordinates of the main guns.

More than ten minutes later, all the tanks were ready and waiting for Long Fei's order to begin shelling.

To prevent the Japanese warships from firing indiscriminately in a moment of panic, causing unnecessary casualties on this side.

Long Fei ordered the rest of the people to retreat outside Wuqiao Town.
