That's not to mention, it was a rare three-dimensional combat by sea, land and air during the Anti-Japanese War!

In this battle, the entire Huaxia Navy was mobilized.

The nearly [-] navy, automatically ignoring the fact that their strength is far inferior to the devils, set foot on the battlefield without hesitation.

The one who led the Huaxia Navy to the battle was Chen Shaokuan, Minister of the Navy and first-class admiral of the navy!

Under Chen Shaokuan, there are two generals:

Vice Admiral Chen Jiliang, Vice Admiral of the First Fleet of the Navy; Zeng Yiding, Vice Admiral Commander of the Second Fleet of the Navy.

In addition, Huaxia also dispatched [-] army warriors.

The commander-in-chief leading them is the well-known General Liu Xing.

The main force of these 57 army warriors is the 103th Army and the [-]rd Division.

It has to be said that these troops are all reinforcements.

Participating in the defense of Jiangyin was Xu Kang, the lieutenant general commander of the Jiangyin Fortress.

In addition, there is Ouyang Ge, the lieutenant general principal of Huaxia Dianlei School.

On the other hand, the island country has far more troops than China.

During the entire Jiangyin Defense War, the island nation dispatched a total of 12.7 navy and more than 3 army personnel.

Among them, the navy of the island country mainly dispatched two fleets:

Admiral Hasegawa Kiyoshi's Third Fleet; Vice Admiral Toyoda's Fourth Fleet.

In addition, the Akagi aircraft carrier battle group and the Longxiang aircraft carrier battle group of the Second Fleet also came near Jiangyin and participated in the battle.

Specifically, during the entire Jiangyin Defense War, the island nation dispatched more than 100 warships of various types.

This is not counted, the island country also dispatched nearly 400 aircraft.

Among them, the army aviation dispatched 210 aircraft, while the naval aviation dispatched 180 aircraft.

The main force of the Devils Army is the 13th Division.

Their division commander is Lieutenant General Dizhou Libing.

In addition to the 13th Division, the devils also dispatched many troops:

Chariot troops, an integrated cavalry team composed of four cavalry brigades...

After the battle, both sides suffered heavy losses.

On the Chinese side, the entire navy was wiped out, and the army of nearly 1 people was killed or injured.

On the other hand, in the island countries, more than 4000 people were killed.

It has to be said that, like the other 21 large-scale battles, the traitors who betrayed their country and sought glory were unwilling to be left alone.

However, more than 7000 traitors were killed by the righteous Chinese army!

The failure of the defense of Jiangyin marked the loss of the entire defense line of Xicheng.

The Xicheng line of defense is actually the second line of defense against Nanjing.

And the first line of defense is the Wu Fu line.

The Wufu line starts from Fushan on the south bank of the Yangtze River in the north, passes through Changshu, Suzhou, Wujiang, and Jiaxing in the south, and extends to Hangzhou Bay. It is the first line of defense against Nanjing.

In the battle of Songhu, because the island nation has strong soldiers and strong horses, it has an overwhelming advantage in heavy weapons.

Therefore, after realizing the goal of opening up the second battlefield, the main force of Huaxia had to retreat immediately.

In fact, the moment the Battle of Songhu broke out, it marked that the defense of Nanjing had begun.

And when China's main force withdrew from the battlefield, it marked the fall of the Wu Fu line.

There is no way, according to the deployment of the Supreme Command, the main force of Huaxia retreated to the second line, which is behind the Xicheng line, while resting.

After arriving here, the main force of Huaxia is on standby, ready to face the invading devils at any time.

The Xicheng defense line starts from Jiangyin Fortress in the north and ends in Wuxi by the Taihu Lake in the south.

In fact, the reason why the devils took Jiangyin as the focus of their attack, while Huaxia defended it desperately, was very intentional.

Chapter 999 Dizhou Libing (Thank you for your reward!)

Jiangyin is located on the north bank of the Yangtze River, referred to as Cheng.

This is a riverside port city, because it is located in the "Yin of the Great River", hence the name.

Specifically, Jiangyin is located in the south of Jiangsu Province, at the northern end of the Taihu Plain in the Yangtze River Delta.

It borders Zhangjiagang in the east, Wuxi in the south, Changzhou in the west and Jingjiang in the north.

Because it is located on the north bank of the Yangtze River and faces Taihu Lake in the south, Jiangyin can be called the throat of the Yangtze River.

In addition, it is also an important transportation hub for the north and south of the Yangtze River, as well as a natural harbor connecting rivers, lakes and seas.

In addition, the Shanghai-Nanjing Line connecting Nanjing and Shanghai also passes through Jiangyin.

Because the geographical location is very important, Jiangyin has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times.

In fact, during the period of the Republic of China, Jiangyin became the naval base of China.

After five years of careful building by the Chief of Staff, it is known as the Macedonia of the East.

Therefore, around Jiangyin, between Huaxia and the island countries, a massive Jiangyin defense war was launched.

Now, the defense of Jiangyin is in the final stage, and it is also the most tragic stage.

Therefore, Ye Tian didn't want to be a simple spectator, but planned to do something.

Also, since you have crossed over, you have to try to make due contributions.

Otherwise, it would be too inconsistent.

In fact, Ye Tian was very familiar with the entire process of the Jiangyin Defense War.

On July 1937, 7, the Devils attacked Jiangyin County by air, which opened the prelude to the Jiangyin Defense War.

At the same time, the main forces of the Huaxia Navy's 1st Fleet and 2nd Fleet gathered in Jiangyin one after another, intending to fulfill the important task of defending Gyeonggi.
