Chapter 1 The Destruction of the Sixth Division
"Yaga-yalu, Noda-kun, can you tell me where this artillery fire, which is even more powerful than the Empire, came from? And quickly send a report to the headquarters to ask for tactical guidance from the Air Force, quickly. "The commander of the Sixth Division, Lieutenant General Gu Shoufu, spoke in his ears in his ears
The whistling sound of heavy artillery was heard. As an imperial general, Gu Shoufu is very clear about the sound of all kinds of artillery fire in the world. It's just that this kind of dense shells can't tell what kind of heavy artillery it is, after all, this kind of dense artillery fire is really incredible. conventional
The first test shot was more than 20 shells landing at the same time, and then the fire flew like a tsunami for a minute, followed by the sound of a conventional 150-caliber* gun.
Hearing the loud sound of the shells of his division's artillery wing, Gu Shoufu could barely control his dizzy head. This level of artillery fire was impossible for even the Soviets, the United States and Germany to do. To know that the low-altitude reconnaissance of the aircraft of the empire can determine the nearby twenty
It is impossible for Riner to hide at least a hundred such a large group of guns. And out of the prudence of a famous general, the 6th Division had an elite of 500 men divided into ten special squads to search and advance. The distance was at least ten miles from the large army, and with the Battle of Songhu
The end of the . The Chinese army absolutely did not have the ability and courage to attack the divisional and regimental level of the Imperial Japanese Army during the day, and even the wing level encountered sporadic sneak attacks at most. You must know that at this time, the tactics and physical strength of the Chinese soldiers were much worse than those of the Japanese Imperial Army, and the losses of being chased and killed after the sneak attack were much greater than the losses of the Imperial Army.
And Huazhuang, which is only about 100 miles away from Wuxi, has already been investigated by the special high school, which is still calculated according to the actual road. Aircraft reconnaissance in a straight line halved naturally would not miss such a large target, and besides, there were only a few small hills near Huazhuang, and it was impossible to deploy so many heavy artillery. It is important to know that the location of artillery positions is not so simple, and stable and thick areas are indispensable. It is also necessary to facilitate the transfer of positions, as for the camouflage arrangement, no matter how the heavy artillery of the 150 is camouflaged, it must be different. The dispersion of artillery positions is important for concealment and to avoid 'one-pot ends', but for the rapidly changing military situation on the battlefield. Unified command to maximize the power of artillery fire is a difficult problem, and in terms of the direction of artillery fire before and at this time. There were only two artillery positions, which indicates that the level of enemy rangefinders was really higher. To be able to let the shells in his artillery wing explode in the second round of shells is definitely not a blind cat touching a dead mouse. Moreover, there will definitely be no test artillery in the month before this to mark the shelling parameters in advance, otherwise such a heavy artillery test fire special high-tech will focus on investigation.
Fortunately, the division's engineer brigade only took more than 10 minutes to build an underground improvised bunker during the first round of artillery fire, and the iron plate with a thickness of 10 centimeters was directly on it. There were also double layers of wood with a thickness of 20 centimeters on top of the iron plate, and sand had to be added to it
Bag. However, the heavy artillery asked all the sappers above to go to see Amaterasu, and the thick iron plate was shaken and screamed by a shell. Thankfully, after this shot, the heavy artillery extended fire did not waste ammunition in the same place. Otherwise, if there is another shot, everyone below will be shocked to death if they are not killed. It is important to know that the wooden planks are not as strong as the iron plates, but they play a very important role in slowing down the shock wave of the shell explosion. After being hit by a shot, all these wooden planks became debris and flew everywhere, and even the wooden pillars supporting the iron plates were squeaky and crumbling, and they could not withstand the second shelling.
"Bagaya Road, the special high class and the reconnaissance squadron or something!" Tani Shoufu, whose mind was buzzing with a cannonball, looked at the first wing commander Koizumi in the basement and ordered: "Koizumi-kun, the enemy's artillery fire is extremely fierce, and our army has suffered heavy losses. However, after the inspection of the aircraft and the reconnaissance team, it was shown that there would be no large troops and trenches ahead. Now that the Imperial warriors have suffered such a blow, I can only ask you to lead the remaining warriors to rush forward and annihilate the enemy in front of them to take revenge! ”
"Hey!" Koizumi knew that the Sixth Division was playing, because it was only more than ten minutes. The artillery fire bombarded the main force of the Sixth Division, destroying all the heavy weapons, and the loss of personnel reached at least ninety percent. You must know that the Sixth Division you are in has more than 20,000 people in two brigades, and now it is good to be able to have 2,000 remnants left.
Braving the smoke and artillery fire, the second wolf of Koizumi got out of the bunker, pulled out the command knife and howled: "Kill a few!" The Japanese soldiers who were lying on the ground and escaping the artillery fire followed Koizumi and rushed forward desperately. But he didn't know that Gu Shoufu, who was in the bunker, was instructing the dispatcher Yanagawa Xiaoyan with a solemn face: "Send a report to General Matsui Ishine again: According to the enemy's artillery fire, the opponent has at least 100 heavy artillery, and there is a peculiar artillery that fires extremely fast and powerful, and can cover the attack in a short period of time." The distance is at least ten miles away, and our troops are currently suffering more than eighty percent of casualties. The heavy weapons are basically destroyed, and now all units of the army are bravely advancing to attack the enemy in retaliation, aiming to completely annihilate the enemy. However, in order to ensure the elimination of the current great disaster of our Japanese Empire, we must ask the commander to order other troops to hurry to encircle and annihilate such a great enemy! Long live His Majesty the Emperor, long live Great Japan! ”
When Matsui Shigen, the commander-in-chief of the Japanese army invading China in Beiping, received the telegram, he couldn't help but scold: "Yagayalu, how is this possible, Ishihara-kun, are you sure that this telegram was not sent by mistake?" Although Matsui admired his chief of staff very much, he still couldn't help but say this
Speech. Just because the content of this telegram is really shocking. Although this telegram was not a farewell message, the information revealed in it made Matsui Ishine understand that Tani Shofu, an arrogant but honest imperial soldier, already had the belief that he would die.
Ishihara Wanji (January 18, 1889 – August 15, 1949), born in Tsuruoka City, Yamagata Prefecture, Japan, was a lieutenant general in the Imperial Japanese Army. Planner and theorist of the Japanese army's aggressive strategy. Japanese thinker, politician, and advocate of militarism. There is Japan
The name of the first soldier. Although this guy is a fanatical militarist, he adheres to the concept of 'Chinese system Chinese' in the management of the Japanese occupation of China. So this guy is ostensibly for those traitors and those who are forced to attach themselves to Japan
The Chinese are very 'gentle'.
It's a pity that the traitors don't say that the Chinese people look down on them, and the Japanese as the masters look down on them even more from the heart. The higher-ranking officers also know how to use these guys, and the lower-ranking non-commissioned officers are not very 'kind' to those traitors. As a result, there are many enthusiastic Chinese soldiers who surrender with the tide.
"I checked it three times, and there is nothing wrong with this content. However, there was no reply after sending a telegram to inquire, and it seemed that the 6th Division was in extreme danger. I have ordered all the 3rd and 4th Air Groups to take off to support, and this incident is so strange that this incident is revealed. Fang has already let it
The people asked Kenji Dohihara, the head of the East China Special High School, about the information on Wuxi. ”
"Ryshi, Ishihara-kun has worked hard." Matsui Ishine relaxed and sat down. According to the regulations of the Japanese army, Ishihara, as the chief of staff, should consult Matsui before ordering the air brigade to take off. However, as a truly qualified chief of staff, you must be in one
React and take responsibility for major matters as soon as possible. What's more, there is a certain time lag between the order to take off and the actual take-off, and Matsui Shigen can retract this order at any time. But at the moment, neither of them cares about these details.
"Gu Shoufu is a proud division commander, and his sixth division is the first-class level of our Imperial Japanese Army in terms of sergeant quality and equipment. Regardless of the actual situation, the 16th and 18th Divisions were ordered to concentrate all the mechanized equipment of the division
。 Form a Rapid Support Force (RSF) to provide tactical assistance and set off immediately with the necessary equipment. The Shanghai Headquarters was in full charge of the logistics, and at the same time, the commander of the Shanghai Dispatch Army, Hatohiko Asakanomiya, was telegraphed to cooperate with the operation. ”
"Hey," Ishihara nodded and went out, and Matsui felt like a dream in his head. The world is simply insane, and now even the elite German units with first-class equipment and soldier tactics are here. This is not possible in the case of a one-to-one or even a two-to-one
Neatly encircled and annihilated the 6th Division. It is impossible for a high-ranking Japanese general such as Toshio Tani not to conduct reconnaissance during the march of the division, in other words, it is impossible to let the entire division enter a narrow pocket formation. Unless it's a large range of ten
10,000 armored forces can do it.
However, with China's current army, even if it is a large area of 100,000 people, it surrounds the Sixth Division. There was absolutely no second way except to be defeated by the 6th Division, after all, the Japanese army, navy and air force were completely superior to the Chinese army. And the military quality of the warriors is even more victorious, even if Lao Chiang
There were several elite army divisions that equipped Germany. No matter how concealed it is, it is impossible to evade the detection of the Air Force in the daylight. What's more, according to Gu Shoufu, more than 10 minutes of intensive artillery fire is worth half an hour of intensive bombardment by the Japanese heavy artillery brigade, what kind of concept is this?
After communicating with King Hatohiko of the Asakanomiya Palace in Shanghai, the prince was very dissatisfied with Matsui Ishine not passing through him and directly giving orders to his subordinate divisions. And the other party didn't believe Tani Shoufu's words at all, if the situation was really so serious, Matsui
Shi Gen's order made the prince speechless. For the control of the overall situation, this prince and Matsui Ishine are not of the same level. Besides, Matsui Ishine had never given an order past his own prince before, and looking at his actions, it was as if Tani Shofu had telegraphed
It's really the same.
For this boss's reaction, King Hatohiko of Asaka Palace felt very funny. was sitting in the war room with a sneer, looking at the busy staff officers, watching the jokes of Matsui Ishone, the top boss. But when dusk came. The confidential officer hurried with a telegram
Come here, lazily take it and be about to watch it. Two more batches came, and the difference in time was only a minute. Immediately, King Hatohiko stood up, his face changed and he looked at the telegram in his hand. It wasn't until after reading the three telegrams that the wolf howled
"Bagaya Road, this is impossible! Fifty tanks, one hundred armored personnel carriers, two hundred vehicles, and fifty on-board artillery pieces were destroyed. 5,000 Japanese warriors jade shattered ......"
However, another confidential agent sent another telegram. King Hatohiko of the Chaoxiang Palace said coldly: "Read." ”
"Shanghai Airport Electric, 20 bombers and 30 fighters sent out were mostly destroyed. There are only more than ten wounded back, please tell the lieutenant general how to do it next? Did naval aviation be sent to support the 6th Division? ”
