The main reason is that Brigade Commander Qiu felt that the tunnel was not the key to defense, and the military order could not be violated, so he gave up the tunnel. ”

Chen Wei was a little embarrassed.

In fact, the reason is not only this, but also some officers of the 107th Regiment who were transferred from outside believed that tunnel defense was an undesirable tactic, so they dug the tunnel and did not use it.

"I believe that after this battle, the national army will pay attention to this tactic." Chen Wei hurriedly explained.

"That's for later, don't worry about that for now. Being beaten passively is not my combat style, and if I don't teach the little devils a lesson, they really think we are easy to bully. ”

。。。。。。

"Your Excellency Detachment Commander, the commander of the 108th Regiment of China has found out who it is."

At the foot of Jilong Mountain, in a village near the lake, there were many Japanese troops stationed, and there were more than 100 Japanese soldiers patrolling, plus those civilian soldiers and medical personnel and wounded soldiers from the field hospital, there were still 500 or 600 people.

"Found? Who the hell is it? It has been able to hold back the imperial army for so long in Zhu Po Mountain. After such a long battle, we still don't know who the commander of the enemy army is! "Shigeichi Hauda was very curious about the commander of the 108th Regiment, so he sent someone to check it out at random to see where it came from.

After the capture of Jilongshan, the Japanese attack on the fortress of Toikeguchi was directly commanded by Shigeichi Hatada.

Previously, because the 6th Division suffered heavy losses in operations on the north bank. Shigeichi Harata crossed the Yangtze River with a part of his army to assist the 6th Division in attacking the Chinese forces near the fortress of Tianjiazhen.

With the 6th Division receiving a lot of reinforcements, Shigeichi Hauda naturally returned to the south bank and attacked the fortress of Tomiikekou with all his might.

The Botian detachment was invincible in other battlefields, but he didn't expect to be blocked in the fortress of Fuchikou for so many days to capture Jilong Mountain, but in the face of Zhu Po Mountain, he was helpless.

"The commander of the 108th Regiment of China is called Leng Jie, graduated from the tenth phase of Huangpu, with the rank of lieutenant colonel. Shao Zuo in front of him took the information and read it carefully, but he was interrupted after only reading for a while.

"Wait!" Ha Tian Shigeichi raised his hand, he felt that the name Leng Jie was somewhat familiar, but he didn't think of it for a while, "You said that this person graduated from the tenth phase of Huangpu?" Why did they all become the head of the regiment? I remember that the 10th phase of Whampoa in China only graduated two years ago.

Became a lieutenant colonel two years after graduating as a lieutenant? ”

"Your Excellency Detachment Commander, the information does say so, this is the information sent by the intelligence department of the dispatch army, and it should not be faked." Shao Zuo affirmed.

"Then you keep reading." Ha Tian said in a deep voice.

"Hey!" Shao Zuo looked at the information in the folder and continued to read, "At the end of 1936, he entered the China Tax Police Corps and served as a lieutenant platoon commander. He participated in the Battle of Yunzaobang and the battle on the south bank of Suzhou Creek in the Battle of Songhu, and was transferred to the Zhina Teaching Corps in December and participated in the Battle of Nanjing.

He led his troops to hold Nanjing for many days, and finally led the army to break through the siege, and then retreated to Nanchang to rest, and the department was reorganized into the 108th Regiment of the 18th Division of China, which served as the lieutenant colonel commander.

It has been learned that Major General Yoshiyoshi Akiyama, former commander of the 6th Brigade of the 9th Division, Major General Toshiichi Sasaki, commander of the 30th Brigade of the 16th Division, and Lieutenant General Toshio Tani, commander of the 6th Division, all died under his men. This person was a sharpshooter, with superb marksmanship, and sniped at least more than 100 imperial troops in the First Battle of Songhu, and was called the 'Shina Demon' by the 9th Division.

According to the intelligence services, the wing flag of the 13th Wing was also captured by him, which was the first wing flag captured by the imperial army on the battlefield of China. ”

"What? It's him? Hearing that this man had killed Lieutenant General Tani Toshio and captured the wing flag of the 13th Wing, Hakata Shigeichi thought a little.

The division headquarters of the 6th Division, which was the ace division of the Japanese army, was terminated, and many generals and officers under the division commander Tani Toshio were killed, and the wing flag of the 13th Wing was also captured, which caused a lot of shock in the Japanese army.

If it weren't for the transfer of another wing from the base camp to the 6th Division, the 6th Division would have become the first permanent division to be transformed from a four-unit ace division into a three-unit ordinary division by the Chinese army on the battlefield.

Although the Botian detachment did not participate in the First Battle of Nanjing, it still heard about it, but he didn't expect to be encountered by himself now.

Just when Hakata Shigeichi was surprised, Ota Sadamasa, the commander of the 36th Wing of the 9th Division who had been sent to assist Hata's detachment in attacking Jilong Mountain, walked in and saluted Hata.

"Your Excellency, Captain of the Detachment." Ota Sadamasa nodded and stood right.

"Ota Daisa, are you here to say goodbye?" Shigeichi Harata asked.

"Hey!" Ota Sadamasa nodded, "The brigade commander has ordered the 36th Wing to be quickly rebuilt, and the Chinese army is launching a large-scale counteroffensive from Yangxin. ”

It turned out that after the troops on the north bank of the Potian detachment withdrew to the south bank, the 9th Division asked the 36th Wing to go back to make up for the lack of military strength.

"By the way, for Leng Jie, can Ota Dazuo know?" Thinking that the 9th Division had fought with Leng Jie, Ha Tian asked with a conscious mind.

"Leng Jie?" Hearing this name, Ota Sadamasa was stunned for a moment, and quickly reacted, looking at Hamada Shigeichi with a shocked face, "Your Excellency is talking about that 'Shina Demon'?" ”

"What? Is he so famous? Seeing Ota's somewhat overreacted expression, Shigeichi Hata was a little surprised.

"Very famous." Ota Sadamasa said bitterly, "The 9th Division is not afraid of any Chinese army on the battlefield, including those so-called Central Chinese Army, but it is cold to this... No, it's the Shina Demon, and the entire 9th Division is discolored. ”

"Why?" Shigeichi Hauda said curiously.

"This man has excellent marksmanship and can successfully hit the target at a distance of 7 or 800 meters. This is how the former brigade commander of the 6th Brigade was sniped, and in the Yunzaohama battlefield, hundreds of soldiers of the 9th Division were sniped by this person.

The same was true in the subsequent Battle of Nanjing.

Why did Your Excellency the Detachment Leader mention this demon? Ota thought of a possibility.

"Ota Dazuo guessed right, the commander of the Shina army defending Zhu Po Mountain is this Leng Jie." Shigeichi Habata explained.

"So it's him? No wonder! Ota Sadamasa suddenly realized.

He was still curious before, who could use that kind of headache tunnel tactics in Zhu Po Mountain, so that the Botian detachment was defeated here, it turned out to be the demon.

Thinking that his wing had been transferred back and there was no need to continue attacking the position of Zhu Po Mountain, he was greatly relieved.

You must not confront that demon, or you won't know how you died.

Regarding Ota's reaction, the Hatada detachment was a little puzzled, is it so terrifying? Even the wing commander of the 9th Division was shocked.

"Why do I think Ota is rejoicing?" Harata Shigeichi said suspiciously.

"Your Excellency, Captain of the Detachment, I have a message for my humble position. That is, don't go to the front-line battlefield, don't go.

This man is a very capable sniper and is most fond of shooting Imperial officers. ”
