Chapter 203: The Great Move (Part I)
"This guy's military rank is Shaozuo, he should know a lot of things, you hand him over to our intelligence department, interrogate him strictly, and see if there is anything valuable. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info also told the intelligence department that he must be well served. ”
Wang Liang didn't plan to put this devil back, isn't this cheap Changgu bastard? Let this devil see the profound punishment of China.
With the rank of young officer, what information should he know, even if he makes a little contribution to our army.
Wang Liang believed that the national * army under the leadership of Jiang Guangtou would categorically not abide by the "Geneva Treaty", and that it was not allowed to abuse prisoners of war.
Therefore, Wang Liang doesn't need to worry too much about the future treatment of this young minister, and the intelligence department will treat him well. ,
*******
When he returned to the army station, he didn't have time to repair, so Wang Liang went to find Zhang Zhizhong.
Zhang Zhizhong introduced the current form to Wang Liang and said: "In addition to the two elite divisions, there are also two heavy artillery regiments equipped with German artillery, namely the 10th Artillery Regiment (150 mm howitzers) and the 14th Artillery Regiment (150 mm howitzers), plus tanks and air forces to help in the war, we already have an overwhelming advantage." The Japanese army in Shanghai had only more than 3,000 marines, and urgently mobilized retired soldiers from the Japanese merchant groups, totaling about 10,000 people, and there was also a shortage of heavy weapons. But they resisted stubbornly with strong fortifications, and we were never able to make a major breakthrough. ”
"But you did a really good job attacking the Japanese headquarters this time. According to the intelligence we obtained from the Japanese radio station that we monitored, the Japanese temporary commander Mizutani Taka and two Osa were killed on the spot, and the rest of the officers were seriously wounded. Coupled with your several firefights, their losses are definitely not small. I have already reported to the chairman of the committee, and I would like to ask for credit for you. "Zhang Zhizhong is very happy, the current situation is very good, the national * army has an overwhelming advantage, and victory in this battle is imminent.
Wang Liang, who knows history, doesn't think so, this is just an appearance, although the national * army occupies the front at this time.
But in the next two months, it can be described as a sharp turn, and the result is that after two months of fierce fighting, the Japanese army relied on strong firepower to break through the Chinese defenses.
"General Zhang, this is what our soldiers should do, and as for the merits, I think the brothers who died in the German Armament Regiment need this even more. Now I want to talk about the progress of the war, and I hope you can take notes. After seeing the powerful offensive of the Japanese army and the blind optimism of the Nationalist government authorities, Wang Liang decided to enlarge the move.
"On August 15, Japan officially announced the formation of the Shanghai Dispatch Army, with General Matsui Ishine as the commander, leading two divisions to Shanghai for reinforcements to further expand the war of aggression against China. After the Japanese reinforcements landed in the rear of the Chinese army, the Chinese side was no longer able to destroy the Japanese marines, and the Chinese army high command headed by the chairman of the committee considered that it would be more convenient to fight in Shanghai than to fight in the far northern plains, and to avoid the Japanese army, which had superior mobility. Moreover, a war in Shanghai, which is leased by foreign countries, is very likely to provoke the intervention of the great powers, and may win a glorious peace with foreign mediation, and then thwart the Japanese army's ambitions in North China, which is extremely advantageous to the relatively weak China. Without waiting for Zhang Zhizhong to ask Wang Liang what he meant by this move, Wang Liang gushed out.
Wang Liang's purpose is very simple, to tell the history he knows, and to fight according to history, he can always have the upper hand.
As long as each step is one step ahead of the Japanese army, there is still a great possibility that the tide of the war will be reversed.
"Is this your guess?" Zhang Zhizhong listened to what Wang Liang said, but he was a little suspicious, how could he know this kind of information?
Wang Liang did not answer, and he could not answer, and continued to recall: "On the 16th, the Japanese army retreated to the stronghold centered on the Japanese Marine Corps Headquarters in Jiangwan, and China and Japan continued to invest troops in Shanghai. ”
"In late August, the Chinese troops continued to besiege the Japanese troops entrenched in the Marine Corps Headquarters, Yangshupu and other strongholds, and the 36th Division, the elite division of the Chinese army, which had newly arrived on the battlefield, quickly entered the battle and attacked the Huishan wharf under the cover of combat vehicles, while the air force was again dispatched to cooperate and bomb the Japanese targets on the ground and on the river. In the end, our army was at a loss in the face of reinforced concrete fortifications due to inferior equipment and insufficient firepower. ”
"At 1 o'clock in the morning of August 20, the 51st Division of the National Revolutionary Army received a telegram issued by the Military Commission ordering to enter Shanghai to participate in the war, and within four hours, it assembled its headquarters at the Baoji Railway Station and drove to Songhu to participate in the Shanghai operation."
"From the morning of August 20 to August 22, the attacks of Song Xilian's 36th Division, Wang Jingjiu's 87th Division, Sun Yuanliang's 88th Division, and Xia Chuzhong's 98th Division were all blocked, and heavy casualties were suffered. The battle situation reached a stalemate, and the Japanese army retreated to the stronghold and stubbornly resisted and waited for reinforcements. ”
"At dawn on 23 August, the vanguard of the reinforcements of two divisions led by Matsui Ishine of the Japanese army landed in Shishilin, Chuanshakou, Zhanghuabang and other areas under the cover of naval and air firepower. Feng Yuxiang was transferred to the newly established Sixth Theater to become commander, and the post of commander of the Third Theater was concurrently held by the chairman himself. ”
Zhang Zhizhong no longer asked, and wrote hard every word Wang Liang said, he had a belief in his heart that what the person in front of him said would become a reality.
It's too real. Zhang Zhizhong felt as if Wang Liang was telling about what happened in the past.
"After both China and Japan increased their troops, the fierce fighting between the two sides became more intense. Beginning on 23 August, the enemy's 3rd and 11th divisions, under the cover of intensive naval artillery fire, landed at Wusongkou Railway Wharf, Shishilin, and Chuanshakou, and attacked the Chinese positions in Baoshan, Yuepu, Luodian, and Fuzaobang. Zhang Zhizhong sent Wang Jingjiu as the commander of the former enemy in Songhu to command the troops under the jurisdiction of the 9th Group Army to resist the landing of the Japanese army. At the same time, the newly formed 15th Army, under the command of Luo Zhuoying, launched a counterattack against the enemy who landed at Baoshan and Chuanshakou, and the 98th Division repelled the Japanese army that captured Lion Forest on August 24, annihilating thousands of enemies. The 11th Division braved the heavy bombardment of aircraft to retake Luodian. ”
Unwilling to fail, the Japanese army mobilized tanks, planes and heavy artillery to counterattack, and engaged in a tug-of-war around Luodian, and the defenders' positions changed hands several times. Huang Wei, who had just returned from Germany and rushed to the front, led the 67th Division to break through, and was immediately repulsed. ”
