Unparalleled Warriors of Anti-Japanese War

Fujie Keisuke, who was also surprised, was also very angry when he learned that several of their artillery positions had been severely damaged: "Bagaya Road! Aren't they dead enemies with the Central Army? How could they help the Central Army?"

Compared with last night, they are less clear about which army the current enemy is.It was daytime now, and the Japanese army quickly determined that the troops responsible for attacking their northern positions were none other than the 71st Army, a direct descendant of the Central Army.

This elite force that participated in the Songhu and Nanjing defense battles is different from the 51st Army and 77th Army that were responsible for the offensive on the east and west sides.For this reason, Fujie Keisuke also ordered that the attacking 71st Army must be severely damaged in the northern position.

It's just that he never expected that the Eighth Route Army, which had been bombed by their air force before, would suddenly strike again and deal a fatal blow.They were caught off guard, and the position of a heavy artillery squadron was also severely damaged.

Although the shelling time of the Eighth Route Army was not long, and according to the trajectory calculated by the artillery, these shells were not fired from one position.This means that if they want to counterattack, they also need to separate the artillery to counterattack.

Even though I had already felt the difficulty of the Eighth Route Army artillery last night, the counterattack speed of the Eighth Route Army artillery this time also surprised the Japanese artillery.Because the Eighth Route Army's countermeasures were really fast.

This also shows that the Artillery level of the Eighth Route Army is very high.At least it seems to be better than the artillery unit of the Central Army they have confronted before.The most troublesome thing is that the artillery unit of the Eighth Route Army is very difficult to deal with, and it disappears quickly after a heavy blow.

The Japanese army, who previously thought that the air force's bombing should have caused a lot of damage to the Eighth Route Army, felt their faces burning hot now.Through the shelling of the Eighth Route Army this time, the Eighth Route Army on the southern position did not suffer any losses.

Thinking of this, Keisuke Fujie said directly: "Bage Yalu, send another telegram to Lu Hang, telling them to find out the Eighth Route Army in the south and destroy their artillery positions in the next round of bombing.

They are too close to us, and their artillery range can completely threaten our heavy artillery.If we don't get rid of this Eighth Route Army, it will be very difficult for us to withstand the attack from the north.

Hell, I'd say they'd be our biggest threat, and they are.After the bomber formation arrives, send an infantry brigade to counterattack me. I want to regain the lost southern position. "

"Your Excellency, head of the division, I'm afraid it will be difficult, right?" '

'It's a very threatening thing to not force them out to decide with us, to keep them lurking behind us all the time.This threat must be removed. If they are not expelled, we will not be able to concentrate on fighting the 71st Army.

Even a brigade of infantry could not break through the blocking positions set up by the Eighth Route Army.But we can lure out the Eighth Route Army who hid in through the land attack.If they don't come out, we will attack their blocking positions.

Once they break through their blocking positions, I will send an additional infantry wing to counterattack them.With the cooperation of the Air Force, I believe this plan will be successful.Either they will fight us decisively, or they will abandon their positions to the south. '

After listening to Fujie Keisuke's combat analysis, the staff officers of the division headquarters thought about it and found it reasonable.After all, last night and the previous bombardment did prove that the Eighth Route Army was a greater threat to them than the 71st Army that was attacking them at this moment.

On the other hand, after helping the scene, they quickly retreated and rearranged the disguised Eighth Route Army artillery unit. They still found an air-raid shelter next to the artillery position and stayed in the air-raid shelter to rest with peace of mind.

According to He Zhengdao's order, they had no combat tasks in the morning and noon, so they could take this opportunity to take a good rest.As for whether there are combat missions in the afternoon, it will rain soon.

If it is raining, He Zhengdao will make corresponding combat arrangements.If it doesn't rain, He Zhengdao decides to take a rest for the day and save his energy to prepare for the big battle at night.

In He Zhengdao's plan, he didn't want the No.16 division to be in the sun in the small town.This means that he gave the 71st Army only one daytime.If the 71st Army cannot succeed, then he will use his own combat strategy.

One more day of delay would result in more casualties for the division in charge of blocking.In order to reduce the casualties of the troops, He Zhengdao would rather not make any contribution, but also defeated the No.16 division that was besieged in the town.

Perhaps with the current strength of his troops, it is not enough to wipe out the No.16 Division of the Japanese Army in the besieged town.But to open a gap and allow other participating troops to join the battle to wipe out the Japanese army, He Zhengdao asked himself that this matter can still be done.

After all, besides the reconnaissance regiment beside him, the two main regiments commanded by Luo Ruiqing were also on standby.As long as He Zhengdao gives an order, the two main groups can quickly come for reinforcements.

Just as He Zhengdao was paying attention to the situation on the battlefield and sighing at the crazy attack of the 71st Army, Li Xiangdong took a telegram and reported: "Commander, the telegram from the forward reconnaissance team, the little devils seem to be gathering troops to launch a counterattack !"

'Aiming at us? '

'Yes! '

'It's quite courageous, and it's also quite vengeful! '

After receiving the telegram with a smile, He Zhengdao thought for a while and said: "The devil's plane will return soon. In this way, an additional battalion will be sent as a reserve team for the forward blocking position.

Tell the soldiers on the ground that if the little devil attacks, he must fight back resolutely.I want to know what the little devil wants to do.In addition, inform the regiments to prepare for battle.The devils deliberately don't want us to have a good rest! "

On the battlefield, the battle situation is changing rapidly.He Zhengdao, who was used to this kind of situation, was preparing to counterattack the Japanese army mobilizing infantry, and made corresponding combat adjustments, ready to see what happened.

But one thing, He Zhengdao quickly figured it out, that is, the little devils suddenly chose to send troops at this time, preparing to regain their lost southern position, presumably there was an air force to give them courage.

Without the assistance of the air force, it is estimated that the little devil would not dare to attack so impulsively.Since the little devils feel that they can be arrogant with the air force, He Zhengdao naturally doesn't mind, and he will teach them a profound lesson.

Following the main battalion closest to the blocking position, it quickly passed through the traffic trench and entered the blocking position.Lin Tie and others, who were in charge of reconnaissance on the front line, also sent back information about the mobilization of Japanese troops.

He Zhengdao also knew that the little devils had assembled their troops but did not launch an attack. He probably waited for their air force to arrive.

How could it be so easy to take down the blocking position garrisoned by the Eighth Route Army with only one infantry brigade.You know, one mile before entering the Eighth Route Army's blocking position, there are still many mines waiting for the kid to come! (To be continued.)

The fifty-ninth chapter is about to cry without tears

The Japanese flying brigade who came again to cooperate with the operation seemed to be smaller in size than the previous aircraft.In fact, with the start of the Battle of Wuhan, the army aviation troops deployed by the Japanese army in the south were also the busiest troops.

These Air Force pilots, as long as the weather conditions are good, need to be ready to board the plane at any time.When they are needed for support there, they have to drive fighter jets to the battlefield to participate in the battle.

In addition, with the establishment of the Soviet Air Force to aid China, the air force of the Central Army also appeared from time to time in the sky of the Wuhan battle.This also caused the Japanese air force to always pay attention to the movements of the Central Army Air Force.

When I received a telegram from the No.16 Division again, I learned that the Eighth Route Army they had bombed did not seem to suffer much loss.The Japanese pilots in charge of reconnaissance and bombing missions undoubtedly felt that they had been slapped in the face.

It's just that today's aircraft cannot communicate with ground troops in real time.This means that when they cooperate with combat missions, they must know the combat missions before boarding the plane, and execute the missions before arriving.

Ground guidance is sometimes a critical part.Previously they only knew the No.16 Division, and hoped that they would focus on bombing the troops on the southern position.As for where those troops are hiding, the little devils in the town also have no way to guide them.

Although the bomber formation is also equipped with reconnaissance aircraft, the reconnaissance aircraft can be used for low-altitude reconnaissance first.However, the reconnaissance of the reconnaissance plane, after all, has limited observation, and it is normal for reconnaissance mistakes to occur.

Most importantly, through the previous bombing and reconnaissance, combined with the information fed back by the No.16 Division, the Japanese pilots who carried out the bombing mission could already guess that the Eighth Route Army in the south had already made targeted air defense preparations.

In the absence of ground guidance, is it easy to accurately bomb the hidden Eighth Route Army?

Hearing the roar of the plane not far away, Song Xilian, who had already failed three times in the charge, could only order helplessly: "Order the front-line attacking troops to withdraw, and all troops to take air defense and dodge, and wait for the little devil's plane to leave." war!"

'Yes, military seat! '

With the order to retreat, the 71st Army's first round of attack was declared a failure.Seeing the corpses left at the front of the Japanese blocking positions, every surviving Central Army soldier felt a little heavy and lost in his heart.

But they all know that surviving now does not mean that they will have such a good life later.This time, they received a death order.If they can't take down the Japanese army in the small town ahead, their chiefs will find it difficult to explain to Shangfeng.

The attacking central army receded like a tide.The Japanese officer in charge of guarding the blocking position in the north also breathed a sigh of relief, but still smiled and said: "The empire will surely win! Long live His Majesty the Emperor!"

After shouting a few slogans, many soldiers who were nervous before also seemed a little excited.After all, the previous offensive strength of the 71st Army also put a lot of psychological pressure on the defenders on the ground.

Now that the central army has retreated, it also means that they have won.As winners, they are naturally qualified to cheer.And this kind of cheering made many officers and soldiers of the Central Army who were retreating feel that their morale had been hit even more.

Not long after, the Japanese aircraft that flew over the town again seemed to plunge the whole town into a brief calm.Keisuke Fujie also heaved a sigh of relief that the battle would end as soon as the plane appeared.

But he still said quickly: "Order the infantry brigade, it's time to attack!"

Following Keisuke Fujie's order, the Japanese infantry brigade, which had been lurking three miles away, began to attack the blocking position of the Eighth Route Army.Before they attacked, the Japanese still gave artillery support.

Taking advantage of the arrival of the little devil's plane, the 51st Army and other troops, who had a rare opportunity to attack, were somewhat surprised to hear the sound of artillery from the south.At this time, the Eighth Route Army should not launch an attack!

'What happened to the south! '

After a while, the participating troops received information about the situation in the south one after another.When they learned that the Japanese army launched a counterattack against the southern position recovered by the Eighth Route Army under the cover of artillery fire and aircraft, the three army commanders were all a little surprised.

As the closest unit to He Zhengdao, the commander of the 51st Army, Xu Youchang, immediately said: "Send a telegram to the 67th Army, asking if they need support. If they need support, I can send a main force to help."

Feng Zhi'an of the 77th Army also sent this inquiry telegram.This made He Zhengdao, who received the telegram, very pleased and said: "Not bad! The favors you sold before have already worked, and they all regard us as allies.
