Chapter 165: The Smell of Gunsmoke

A month passed quickly, the time has come to April 8, 1939, it has been half a year since Jiang Haoran came to this world, but this is not worth celebrating, because in the early hours of this morning, the Japanese army, which had been preparing for more than a month, came to Nanchang again, and the attack method was the same as at the beginning of the month, but the number of troops increased greatly, the sixth division and a mixed brigade attacked Xiushui from Wuning. The 104th Division, the 101st Division, and the Ninth Division attacked Yongxiu, and on the naval side, a fleet of ships swam between Poyang Lake and Xiushui. On the air force side, a flying regiment has more than 50 fighters and bombers. The navy, land, and air forces fought in concert, and Tada Jun even made a bold statement that he would take Nanchang within a week.

Because Yongxiu was razed to the ground by the devil's artillery fire more than 30 days ago, all the Yonggu fortifications have not been fully restored, and there is almost no defensive role, although the heavy rain a few days ago has caused the water level of the Xiushui River to rise sharply, delaying the devil's chariot cluster, but the defenders have concentrated more than 200 artillery pieces of various types in the Japanese army, and there are planes in the air under the indiscriminate bombardment, so that the only barrier is also like a void, the Japanese army laid tens of thousands of smoke bombs in the defenders' positions, and covered by smoke. In less than a morning, a pontoon bridge was erected, and by the evening more than 100 chariots had all crossed the river, and Yongxiu was completely lost.

In terms of repairing water, the Japanese 6th Division and the 14th Mixed Brigade also launched a fierce attack on the 30th Army, and the battle began to heat up, but the situation was still under control.

The news of the loss of Yongxiu soon spread to the Nanshan Independent Division, Jiang Haoran suddenly became an ant on the hot pot, the Japanese army captured Yongxiu in less than a day, and then opened the road with a cluster of chariots, and there was a heavy artillery cover of aircraft, ** There is no ability to block the enemy at all, this road is turbulent, and the Japanese army will be under the city of Nanchang in less than two days, and a group army arranged by Xue Yue really doesn't know how to hold it for a few days, and it is really possible to realize Tada Jun's wild words.

"Master, ask Commander Xue for his life, change us, their misbreeds are chased by the devil's chariot, Lao Tzu feels panicked, let's teach them how to fight, let them see what the elite of a hundred battles is!" Liu Dakun was energetic as soon as he saw a battle, and the troops who had been training for several months had already suffocated him in a panic, and as soon as he heard that the war on the front line was unfavorable, he yelled at Jiang Haoran.

"Replace you? Okay! How do you tell me how to fight this battle, and how many people do you want? Jiang Haoran looked at Liu Dakun coldly and said.

Liu Dakun thought that there was a drama now, and immediately said with a fluttering eyebrow: "How can you fight this, you give me two brigades, plus the special combat team, let the special combat team bring the one hundred and ten bazookas, and directly destroy the devil's chariot cluster, see how arrogant they are." ”

"You said it lightly, according to your style of play, this little bit of family wealth that Lao Tzu has worked so hard to save, so that you will lose Lao Tzu at one time, the bazooka only has a range of 100 meters, and the devil's chariot is waiting for you to blow up? Even if you destroy all the devil's chariots, he will be followed by three divisions and planes in the sky, and your two brigades will not be enough for people to stuff their teeth. Besides, as soon as your two brigades are taken away, and Nanchang is not defended, then Zhuzhou will not have to be fought, and it will be handed over directly to the devil. Jiang Haoran replied to Liu Dakun angrily.

"What then? As soon as Nanchang is lost, the devils will definitely attack us, and the pillboxes at the base cannot be used, so we still can't hold it? Rather than wait for death, it's better to give it a go. Liu Dakun said.

"You're not Bo, you're sending sheep into the tiger's mouth, let me ask you, how is the bazooka training of the special combat team, can you use it proficiently?"

"How can you not be skilled, that thing can be used in the hands of a girl, these guys are now bombarding rabbits in the mountains every day, one by one." Liu Dakun said coaxingly.

"Just blow it! With such a large explosion range, hitting a rabbit, is it not a dozen accurate in whose hands? Liu He, who had been silent all the time, couldn't help but ridicule when he heard Liu Dakun's cowhide.

Jiang Haoran didn't seem to pay attention to what they said at all, and after thinking about it for a long time, he ordered the staff officer to connect Xue Yue's phone.

After a while, there was a noisy sound on the phone, and it could be heard that there was a meeting going on there, and after a loud voice stopped shouting, the noise weakened slightly, and only made people feel that they could smell the smell of gunsmoke on just a wire.

"Who, tell me if you have something!" The voice that had just stopped shouting loudly came clearly from the phone.

"Commander, it's me, Jiang Haoran!"

"Hehe, it's Brother Ziqian, if you don't call me yet, I'm going to call you, what you did last time was wrong! You actually hid me as the commander of such a big military operation, and I only learned the reason from the commission when the enemy retreated, so how can I be embarrassed as a commander, not to mention that these are useless, do you want to give me a call to give me advice? As soon as Xue Yue heard that it was Jiang Haoran, he seemed to be in a much better mood, and he said a lot of things as soon as he said that since the Battle of Mahuiling, Xue Yue still admired this nominal subordinate very much, and even he, who had always been conceited, praised Jiang Haoran's tactics and strategic vision. Although they hadn't met yet, there was still a lot of phone exchange between them, and Xue Yue also thought that he still knew Jiang Haoran well, so he must have some thoughts about the current battle when he called.

"Commander, you have wronged me, you know what happened last time, it was all the chairman of the committee who planned it, and I didn't have anything to do with it? I'd like to report to you, but what should I report? Jiang Haoran immediately poured bitter water, but between his words, he implied that his credit had been stolen by the chairman, where did he dare to say anything to the outside world?

Others didn't know the reason, but Xue Yue still knew, so he immediately prevaricated, and then asked Jiang Haoran what he thought of the battle situation in front of him.

Jiang Haoran was more concerned about what the chairman's order was, and after getting the answer of "stick to it at any cost", Jiang Haoran was silent for a while, he felt that the chairman might be a little mistaken about what he meant. Last time, I said that the Japanese army took Yueyang only for Nanchang, because the preservation of Nanchang would pose a threat to Wuhan, would the chairman of the committee think that as long as Nanchang was held, the Japanese army would not dare to advance to Changsha, and from another point of view, it would ensure the safety of the rear of the southwest. Otherwise, judging from the current situation, under such a powerful offensive of the Japanese army, a discerning person will know at a glance that Nanchang has no possibility of holding it at all.

Jiang Haoran asked Xue Yue very directly, with his analysis of the situation of the enemy and us, how long can Nanchang hold out? Xue Yue almost didn't think much about it and replied to Jiang Haoran, half a month, half a month at most? And in this half a month, it is necessary to use the corpses of ** soldiers to build a great wall of flesh and blood.
