Chapter 103: The Aircraft Carrier Sinks

The four aircraft carriers of the Japanese army were hit by 500 kilograms of aerial bombs in a row, after all, it was a high-altitude bombing, and the accuracy was not very high, only about 40 percent of the bombs hit the target, but the three Japanese aircraft carriers were still sunk. The Ryuchamp, Hosho, and Kaga were all bombed and sunk, and the seaplane carrier Notoro was heavily damaged. And the Flying Eagle Aviation Regiment lost five fighters, JU87 six, and the wounded aircraft did not count. With the loss of eleven aircraft, the Flying Eagle Regiment sank three Japanese aircraft carriers and severely damaged one, and the aircraft carriers of the Japanese Third Fleet were completely lost.

Nagumo Zhongyi has completely collapsed, His Majesty the Locust and the base camp put the Third Fleet intact into their own hands, while they buried three aircraft carriers, this loss is absolutely catastrophic for an island country like Japan, although the Japanese army has ten aircraft carriers, but there are only five more advanced ones, and the most advanced three are sent to the bottom of the sea.

Nan Yunzhong looked dead, silently returned to his bedroom, wrote a suicide note to his wife with tears on his face, and then untied his clothes, pulled out the command knife he was wearing, and was about to commit suicide by breaking his stomach, when suddenly "bang", Nanyun Zhongyi's bedroom door was knocked open......

At this time, the Japanese carrier-based planes sent out could only make a forced landing in the area around Shanghai, because their aircraft carriers had already been sent to the bottom of the sea, and there were many soft beaches around Shanghai, and the forced landing was also a good place.

Schmidt has already begun to return with the remaining planes, at this time Schmidt's mood is not to mention how happy he is, this sortie killed three Japanese aircraft carriers about 70,000 tonnage, this is a brilliant record! This is something that Germany has never had since the beginning of a sheet. Schmidt can at least receive a first-class Iron Cross, and the relevant combat exploits of the Condor Legion and the Flying Eagle Legion are the same, and they will be recorded in the personal file in the battle merits column, Schmidt clearly remembers the sensation caused by Krupp Ondet in Germany after receiving the first-class Iron Cross, compared to his own first-class Iron Cross, which is more golden. While Schmidt was returning with his own fleet, he sent a report to Rommel, but Schmidt did not dare to skip the level to report, he was not as bold as Li Mo, and at the same time he did not have that qualification.

Schmidt returned home, and the suicide attempt Nagumo gave up his suicide plan under the persuasion of his staff officer, and retreated to Japan at full speed with the scarred Third Fleet, the aircraft of the Flying Eagle Legion is too advanced, and his carrier-based aircraft are not opponents at all, and now he must return to China, while waiting for the empire to produce the latest aircraft, Nagumo Nagumo of course knows that the empire is already testing a fighter called the Zero, and Nagumo believes that he can return to Shanghai, China with the Third Fleet in a year at most, When the time comes, you must make the Germans look good. The ships of the Japanese Navy were so precious that Nagumo had to return to Japan decadently with a fleet without aircraft cover. As for what punishment an old devil in Nanyun will receive, it is unknown.

……

Lieutenant General Shiro Inaba was desperately asking for tactical guidance from the Shanghai Dispatch Army Headquarters in his improvised headquarters, when suddenly a Japanese soldier with a bloody face and a bandage on his head ran into the headquarters in a panic:

"Report to the division commander, the 13th Wing has been attacked by heavy enemy artillery fire and has suffered heavy casualties, and requests tactical guidance."

"Tell the captain of the 13th Wing, there are no reinforcements, not one, give me a stand-off, or I'll die."

"Hey!"

Every corner of the Japanese position was smashed down by several shells of different calibers, and the field trenches dug by the Japanese army were shattered under the bombardment of countless heavy artillery, just like the cultivated land, the land around Nanjing was soft, and the water came out if it was dug a little deeper, and if people's feet were soaked in water for a long time, it was absolutely impossible, not to mention that the little Japan all wore big scalp shoes.

Germany's two infantry divisions stepped on the bullet impact point to launch a fierce attack, each squad has ten P35 submachine guns and an MG42 general-purpose machine gun, although the small Japanese 38 cover has a long range, but in the face of such fierce firepower, it can't raise its head at all, as long as there are devils who dare to come out, they will be immediately beaten into a honeycomb, and there are also little devils who want to impress the white-knuckle battle, but these soldiers don't fight bayonets with little Japan at all, those devils who are wah-wah and shout for change jumped out of the trench with bright bayonets, and it was a dense rain of bullets pouring over, As a result, all the devils who participated in the charge were all knocked down.

After the infantry division rushed into the trenches, the P35, which had a very light rate of fire, still completely gained the upper hand, and the long three-eight big cover was in the narrow space of the trenches, and it was the fate of being slaughtered, don't think that the little devils had no tricks, wrong, the desperate little devils launched a suicidal fight with the attacking infantry in the trenches, one by one, groups of little devils, holding explosives bags, cluster grenades rushed at the Flying Eagle Legion soldiers who rushed into the trenches, and those who did not die flew directly into the crowd, The Flying Eagle Legion soldiers who pulled off the fuse and the trenches died together, this devil is too vicious.

The infantry of the Eagle Legion, which had the advantage of weapons, began to strangle the Japanese in the trenches, and the progress was slow, except that the Japanese suffered much greater casualties than the infantry of the Eagle Legion. This situation was immediately reported to Rommel, who immediately ordered Li Mo to immediately launch a surprise attack on the Japanese back, time is a race against time for the Flying Eagle Army, and time determines the victory or defeat of the entire battle.

Five minutes after the 102nd and 103rd mechanized infantry divisions launched the attack, Li Mo arrived at the designated position, which was three kilometers away from the outer defense line of Nanjing, and the sound of guns and cannons in the distance and shouting and killing were clearly visible, and it was the baggage wing, logistics detachment, and horsemen of the Japanese Sixth Division who came to block Li Mo, and the other three wings of the Sixth Division had been sent to the two mechanized infantry divisions of the Flying Eagle Regiment to defend them head-on.

Li Mo used binoculars to carefully observe the team blocking the Japanese army, these Japanese soldiers had weapons in their hands, but they didn't have any artillery at all, even machine guns were few, and the trenches didn't have time to dig, each Japanese soldier dug a small pit with their own sapper shovel, the depth was only about thirty or forty centimeters deep, and the number of Japanese soldiers was quite a lot, at least 4,000 people, but what was the use of this.

Although Li Mo now has only more than 8,000 people, Li Mo is an armored division, but it is not manpower that can block it, and Li Mo, who has finished observing, directly ordered:

"The whole army assaults, all annihilated."

Li Mo didn't dare to let these Japanese troops go, and the backs of Li Mo's two blocking infantry regiments had no strength to protect them. Therefore, Li Mo must wipe out all these Japanese troops, so that he can think of the three remaining main forces of the Japanese army to attack from the back, even if it takes some time to maintain it.

"Boom...... Da Da ......"
