"Your Excellency, the 19th Brigade, the Artillery Wing, and the field hospital were all attacked by the Chinese Army.

According to the telegram of the commander of the Caochang Brigade, there were nearly 10,000 troops in the Zhina army on the periphery of the 19th Brigade Brigade Headquarters, which was suspected to be the Zhina Teaching Corps of the Purple Mountain. ”

The series of attacks made Nakajima Imago a little unable to react, and he began to think that it was only the field hospital that was attacked, and now it was not only the field hospital that was attacked, but also the 19th Brigade and the artillery wing, which was obviously planned for a long time.

"Yaga, these abominable Shina people!"

Nakajima gritted his teeth with hatred, but it was night. Although the Japanese army's ability to fight at night is very strong, relatively speaking, the Japanese army suffered a lot in field battles, because many advantages could not be brought into play, while the frontal Chinese army was dominated by the most elite teaching corps.

The so-called superiority of the Japanese army has been greatly weakened, and now is the time when the soldiers are most trapped, and many soldiers are afraid that they will be shot and killed by the Chinese army before they can react.

"Your Excellency, are we going to ask for help from the Ninth Division?" Mio Nakazawa hesitated.

"Baga, don't you think you're losing face enough?" Nakajima Imago directly slapped him in the face, "Give me an order to go down, let the commander of the Kusaba Brigade be sure to hold on to me, and urge the commander of the Sasaki Brigade to let the 30th Brigade quickly reinforce to surround and eliminate these people." ”

"Hey!"

Even if he was beaten, Mitsuo Nakazawa did not dare to refute.

Just as he was about to give the order, suddenly the entire division headquarters shook, and the lights above his head shook several times.

"Nani? What's the situation? Nakajima Imago also felt a significant shaking, and his face was a little hesitant, "Could it be that there was also an earthquake here in the Shina?" ”

The Japanese are no strangers to earthquakes. The recent Great Kanto Earthquake killed more than 100,000 people in the Kanto region, and the industry in Tokyo Bay was devastated.

It was precisely because of that earthquake that the Japanese realized the small size of their country and formulated a plan to annex the three eastern provinces of China and the whole of China.

As for small earthquakes, they are even more frequent.

However, not long after the tremors, a series of violent explosions were heard from the north. At this time, a young man hurriedly ran in and reported, "Your Excellency the division commander, there has been a violent explosion in the position of the artillery wing!" ”

"Nani?"

Hearing this result, Nakajima Imago hurriedly ran out of the division headquarters, only to find that the explosion and fire from the artillery wing were incomparably brilliant, illuminating the surrounding areas for several kilometers, and it was difficult to imagine what happened over there.

"What about the heavy artillery brigade?" Thinking of the heavy artillery brigade, Nakajima's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly asked.

Shao Zuo hurriedly explained, "The heavy artillery brigade is fine, but our artillery wing is afraid... ”

Shao Zuo didn't continue, because the explosion in the distance continued, and even a fool could guess that there must have been a martyrdom, and it was a whole artillery wing,

Unlike those ordinary divisions, the 16th Division is a type A division, and the artillery wing has four artillery brigades, 36 Type 94 75mm mountain guns and 12 Type 91 105mm howitzers.

Those shells were piled up all around, and with such a violent explosion, I don't know how many artillery pieces will be left in the entire artillery wing after that.

Hearing that the heavy artillery brigade was fine, Nakajima Imago was missing a thing, but thinking that his artillery wing might be destroyed in one fell swoop, his heart was also dripping blood.

And the initiator of this explosion was Leng Jie and other officers and soldiers of the Second Regiment and the 112th Division, but at the time of the explosion, they had already retreated.

It's not that they don't want to withdraw, it's that reinforcements from the Japanese army are coming.

The Japanese troops were not stationed very far from each other, and reinforcements were still very fast.

Originally, Leng Jie wanted to fish in troubled waters, but when he found that the Japanese troops reinforcing the artillery wing were a little strong, he still suggested that Xie Chengrui retreat, and there was no need to fight the Japanese army. It is already a great achievement to be able to destroy the Japanese artillery positions tonight, and there is no need to increase casualties in vain.

However, if he knew that he had missed the Japanese heavy artillery brigade, he would probably jump into the Qinhuai River with hatred.

If you can destroy the Japanese heavy artillery brigade, even if you lose a thousand people, it will be worth it.

You must know that in the entire East China Battlefield, the Japanese army destroyed this heavy artillery brigade with a heavy artillery brigade, and in the next few months, the Japanese army would not have a high-power support artillery fire, which could reduce how many casualties of the Chinese army.

It's a pity that Leng Jie has too few troops in his hands, and he doesn't know the situation in the distance, so he finally missed such a good opportunity.

After tonight's incident, the Japanese army's defense at night is estimated to be very tight, and Leng Jie's ability may be fine, but if the large army wants to make such a sneak attack again, I am afraid that the effect will not be good, but it will cause great losses.

So Leng Jie suggested that he accept it when he saw it, and Xie Chengrui also saw that the troops suffered a lot of casualties, and it would be boring to fight any longer, so he decisively ordered a retreat.

When the Japanese army was scolding here, the Chinese troops inside and outside Nanjing, the people in the city, and the personnel of foreign embassies all heard the explosions and gunfire outside the city, and even those who did not hear it saw the firelight in the distance.

The Chinese army detonated bombs and set fires again, and the flames were so bright that they couldn't see it if they didn't want to.

In the garrison headquarters, Tang Shengzhi thought that the Japanese army had invaded the city, so he hurriedly ran out wearing a coat, and hurriedly asked the adjutant to prepare to pack up and withdraw from Nanjing.

However, soon there was news from below, there was no war in Yuhuatai, Tongjimen and other places, and the location of the battle was near the Qilin Gate at the foot of the Purple Mountain.

"What the hell is going on?" Seeing that it was not the Japanese army that attacked the city, Tang Shengzhi was much more relieved, and immediately took out the majesty of being a garrison headquarters.

"Meng Xiao, it seems that there is a battle on the Qilin Gate!" Zhou Yu hesitated.

"Kirin Gate? Did the Japanese army attack the Purple Mountain position? Tang Shengzhi hesitated.

"It doesn't seem to be, there is no fire coming from the Purple Mountain position, and the teaching team has not sent a telegram to ask for help。。。。。"

"What the hell is going on?" Tang Shengzhi was a little dissatisfied when he saw Zhou Huan.

"It seems that the Teaching Corps and the 103rd Division and the 112th Division launched a sneak attack on the 16th Division of the Japanese Army, and according to the report of the 87th Division, the 2nd Regiment and the 112th Division of the Teaching Corps stationed nearby are not in the position and have left the city." Zhou Wei explained that he knew that this result would definitely make Tang Shengzhi very angry.

"What?" Tang Shengzhi was stunned for a moment, and then became furious, "What does this Gui Yongqing want to do?" Didn't I say that it is not allowed to attack without permission, is he going to disobey orders? I removed him! ”

Luo Zhuoying next to him pouted secretly, you still want to remove Gui Yongqing from his position. These Whampoa generals of the Central Army in Nanjing City, if you can remove one, you will be ruthless.

Unlike Tang Shengzhi, who didn't understand what was going on, Luo Zhuoying, who was already serving in the Central Army, guessed something. With Gui Yongqing's character, there is no need to disobey at this time, there must be something to rely on.

And this dependence? Definitely not from Nanjing, but from Wuhan!
