Chapter 153 The Air Force Joins the War and Counterattacks!
When the dawn broke and the first rays of the morning sun shone on the earth, only in the camp of Baoshan appeared to clean the battlefield one after another.
Zheng Long sat on the dilapidated roof, lit a cigarette, glanced at the corpses on the battlefield, and then looked at the eastern sky thoughtfully.
At 8 o'clock in the morning, the chairman of the committee announced to the whole of China that he would hold Shanghai and fight a bloody battle, and at the same time ordered the air force to quickly support the Shanghai battlefield.
On the same day, the Sichuan Army, the Guangdong Army, the Hunan Army, the Northwest Army, the Northeast Army and other local troops responded to the call and rushed to Shanghai one after another.
The Japanese army may also be tired, and after occupying Luodian, there was no action.
Both sides seem to be calm, but in fact they are accumulating strength and preparing for a more violent attack.
At ten o'clock in the morning, Yao Bing received a call from Commander Zhang, and after a brief communication between the two, Yao Bing called a meeting of officers above the battalion level.
The content of the meeting was very simple, let the 87th Division send out a regiment of people and cooperate with the 88th Division to recapture Luodian.
Baoshan and Luodian are about 15 kilometers apart, and you can go directly to Luodian by walking along the main road of Baoluo Highway.
"Everyone knows the matter, Luodian has been lost, and the Japanese army has successfully landed." Yao Bingbing looked at the officers and said loudly, "We and the 88th Division are brother divisions, and Luodian is an important place, the next step for the little devil must be based on the stronghold of Luodian and directly enter Shanghai, so Luodian must be recaptured." ”
"There is no problem with support, but what if the people on our side are withdrawn, and the Japanese army is coming? Can it be blocked? A brigade commander asked, looking up.
"Yes, the Japanese army will come at any time, and it will be difficult for us to resist, if the Japanese army takes this opportunity to attack again, we will definitely not live there." Immediately someone conformed to the Tao.
Yao Bingbing waved his hand, signaled everyone to be quiet, and directly ordered, "This matter is not negotiable, just execute, the location of Luodian is too important, and it must not fall into the hands of the Japanese army." ”
"If the Japanese army really takes advantage of this opportunity to attack, it's a big deal to abandon Baoshan for the time being, and wait for reinforcements to arrive, just fight back."
"Send out three battalions, make up 1,500 people for me, march quickly, and rush to Luodian at six o'clock in the evening, and cooperate with the 88th Division and the Air Force to recapture Luodian."
After Yao Bingbing finished speaking, he waited for a while, and saw that everyone did not reply, and then said directly, "The first brigade made up the number of two battalions for me, and the second brigade made up the number of one battalion for me." ”
"Yes!" The first brigade commander reluctantly agreed.
"Yes!" The second brigade commander was also a little reluctant.
"Look at your virtues!" Yao Bing scolded directly: "Not happy? ”
"Willingly!" The first brigade commander replied: "It's just that I feel sorry for the brothers below." ”
Yao Glacier's face softened when he heard this, and said, "Special period, special treatment, let the brothers be considerate." ”
"Give the people of these three battalions to Zheng Long, and Zheng Long will be the general." Yao Glacier looked at Zheng Long and said, "Do you have the confidence to take Luodian back?" ”
"I haven't said I agree to go." Zheng Long laughed and teased, enlivening the atmosphere.
"You have to go, you have to go, you have to go if you don't go." Yao Glacier said strongly: "This is an order!" ”
"Definitely complete the mission!" Zheng Long saluted.
"Haha." The two brigade commanders smiled when they heard this, and said, "If Battalion Commander Zheng leads the team, I will be relieved." ”
"I'll try to bring as many people back as I can." Zheng Long saluted and said to the two brigade commanders.
After the two brigade commanders returned a salute, they patted Zheng Long on the shoulder and turned to leave.
An hour later, Zheng Long left on foot with three battalions and men from the special operations battalion, accompanied by two military vehicles carrying heavy weapons and ammunition.
At half past five o'clock in the evening, the retreating troops of the 88th Division of Luodian, led by Jin Kui, quickly approached Luodian again, everyone in this unit had killing intent, and the team no longer had any sound except for footsteps in the process of marching.
In the battle of Luodian last night, Jin Kui's guard company was all wiped out, and no one survived, and more than half of the two regiments that went to organize the Japanese army's special operations team were killed or wounded, but in the end, they were defeated, which made everyone feel a sigh of relief.
And tonight, it's time for revenge.
At 5:50 p.m., as soon as the sky darkened, the 87th and 88th Divisions had already reached the place designated in advance, and when the air force arrived, they would launch a general attack.
At six o'clock in the evening, there was a roar over the heads of the 87th Division, the 88th Division and others, and the fighters circled over everyone's heads and headed straight for the Luodian camp.
At this moment, the Air Force has a total of more than 100 fighters, which shows that the positioning of this war can only be won, not defeated!
A minute later, the Air Force arrived at the Japanese camp where Luodian was stationed and began bombing.
More than 100 fighters bombed at an extremely terrifying speed, destroying the defenses that the Japanese had just built almost instantly.
Three kilometers away, the people of the 88th Division immediately moved when they saw the fire in the Luodian camp.
"Brothers, the time for revenge has come!" When Jin Kui saw the arrival of the Air Force, he immediately cheered up, and orders began to be issued one after another.
"Artillery regiment, after advancing me for a kilometer, the muzzle of the cannon will be aimed at the Luodian camp and bombard me fiercely!"
"A regiment cooperates with tanks as the vanguard, and give me a few points."
"Machine gun battalion, follow behind a regiment, rack me the machine gun!"
"Two regiments, three regiments, cooperate with one regiment to attack from the flank!"
"Others, stay still for the time being, wait for my orders!"
"Start attacking!"
One order after another was issued, the troops of the 88th Division quickly became operational, and the men of the first brigade approached en masse.
Two minutes later, the 3rd Regiment arrived at its position, and 100 mortar guns were aimed at the Japanese camp and began to fire shells incessantly to cover the advance of the 1st Brigade.
Three minutes after the Air Force entered the field, the warplanes parked at the Japanese warship also took to the air one after another and began to confront the Chinese Air Force.
At the same time, the artillery of the Japanese warship was restarted and fired at the artillery regiment of the 88 Division.
Before anyone arrived, the cannon sounded first!
This time it was the main battlefield of the Japanese army, and the Japanese army finally withstood the baptism of a wave of artillery fire.
The quality of the personnel of Fujiwara Taku's special operations brigade was relatively high, but he did not panic, and the other little devils were a little at a loss for a while, and the Japanese commander gave several orders to stop the panic.
Ten minutes later, the vanguard finally reached the front line and officially collided with the little devils, while the artillery regiment stopped firing and continued to advance before firing again.
The tank opened the way, and the vanguard of the 88th Division, for the first time, took the initiative and followed behind the tank with unscrupulous fire.
The main gun of the tank, bombarded down is a big pit, the power is very direct, the machine gun on the top of the tank has been constantly strafing, for a time the little devil can not resist, was beaten and retreated.
Two minutes after the two sides met, the Japanese heavy weapons were finally in place, and one tank after another stood in front of the team to act as a defensive line, and the Japanese stabilized the situation.
At the same time, Zheng Long also entered the battlefield from the side with 87 people, and the method chosen was exactly the same as that of Fujiwara Taku last night, that is, he planned to divide the battlefield and encircle and annihilate it.
Zheng Long's most suitable tactic is a strong offensive battle, after the cover of machine guns and artillery, Zheng Long directly ordered, in groups of three, into a triangular formation, and began to advance in an all-round way, straight to the battlefield.
In less than 20 minutes, Zheng Long pushed two kilometers forward, and the Japanese army did not dare to regret his edge.
After taking a glance at the battlefield, Taku Fujiwara quickly approached the area where Zheng Long and the others were with the special combat team, preparing to eliminate Zheng Long first and then attack the frontal battlefield.
Thus, Zheng Long and Fujiwara Taku met for the first time, and Zheng Long faced the ace troops of the Japanese army.
