readx; On May 10, the 23rd year of the Republic of China (1934), the tenth day after Labor Day, since the natural enemy of the Beiyang Nationalist Government in Jiangxi: the Workers' and Peasants' Army had overfulfilled the Shanghai Liberation Operation, more than a month had passed. This also made all the possibilities that the Japanese spies who wanted to use the Japanese spies lurking here to obtain information or incite hostile forces to hate the base areas at the beginning became a bubble, and this also indirectly shattered the Japanese army's arrogant dream of "destroying the nascent Shanghai Red Regime in one month." The Japanese were angry at the workers' and peasants' army's unruly approach, and they no longer had any hope or expectation for Jiang Zhicheng's Beiyang faction that could not support the wall with mud, and the Japanese thought that since Jiang Zhicheng could not handle it, then let's roll up our sleeves and wrestle with the workers' and peasants' army.

Out of prudence, the headquarters of the Japanese army in Tokyo, a small and crowded country, decided to create a new battlefield around Shanghai to attract the attention of the workers' and peasants' army. After some selection, it was finally decided to use the long and narrow place in the northern part of Hangzhou Bay, which was conducive to the landing zone, as a landing ground for landing, put superior troops in one go, destroy the main force of the workers' and peasants' army in Shanghai, and "help" Jiang Zhicheng to recover the great Shanghai that had fallen into the hands of the rebels.

The General Staff Headquarters of the Japanese Army Base Camp used the landing ground to threaten the weak links of the Workers' and Peasants' Army, which had just liberated Shanghai, and for this reason the Japanese army urgently dispatched six divisions, including the 3rd Division, the 5th Division, the 6th Division, the 9th Division, the 11th Division, and the 16th Division, to form the First Army of the Chinese Anti-Red Japanese Shanghai Dispatch Army in China on 17 April, with a total combat strength of 145,000 troops. Led by Major General Seishiro Itagaki, who had been the head of the Second Division of the Kwantung Army, the 18th Incident completed the concentration at the end of April and waited for an opportunity to prepare for a sneak attack and landing (this is the usual little trick of the Japanese to declare war without declaring war).

Because the main force of the workers' and peasants' army in the base areas of the Red Organization has invested 700,000 troops in the entire Shanghai defense front, compared with the defense of the coast of Hangzhou Bay, it is not very weak in the eyes of the Japanese, and the difficulty is no worse than the defense of Shanghai, but the Japanese who are very gambling still stubbornly insist that the Red elements in China in this area are not worth mentioning, believing that these Red elements have never seen any coordinated landing operations by sea and land, let alone compete with the modern Japanese army. The Japanese army was still arrogant and did not pay any attention to the enemy workers' and peasants' army, believing that the workers' and peasants' army was nothing more than grasshoppers jumping in the autumn and could be pinched to death with one hand at any time.

On the basis of the above-mentioned erroneous understandings and erroneous judgments, Prince Zaihito, a relative of the emperor who served as chief of staff at the headquarters of the staff headquarters of the base camp, immediately decided to launch a landing force in Hangzhou Bay in the early morning of 10 May. If the landing ground had been placed on the Zhoushan Islands at the mouth of the Huangpu River in Shanghai from the beginning, then this group of more than 140,000 Japanese troops would have been in danger of being wiped out immediately not long after they had just climbed up. On the contrary, with the high power of the naval battleships, under the bombardment of naval artillery, this group of mud-legged troops composed mainly of Zizhi and Natu peasants will be able to hold their heads and run away, and then they can logically complete the landing and enter Shanghai, suppress the red turmoil that is becoming more and more fierce in Shanghai, and strangle it in infancy. The Japanese, who were at a disadvantage during the Russo-Japanese War, were able to become the victors in the end even in the face of an absolute advantage, which was the confidence of the Japanese.

Dozens of large troop carriers with a deep draft of 10,000 tons on the sea are parked in the deep water area about 70 or 80 kilometers away from the landing beach, because once they get close to the shallow water area, trouble will come immediately, and it is good to say that the tide rises when the draft is deep; on the other hand, if the tide is low, these dozens of troop carriers with zero armament will immediately run aground and cannot move, and eventually they will become live targets for coastal defense artillery with long-range shooting capabilities, so the army of more than 100,000 devils who have not yet had time to land will immediately die in the belly of the fish with the sinking ship. The reason why these troop carriers are not armed is that they can carry personnel and equipment to the greatest extent, so the troop carriers parked in the deep water area and within the range of the coastal defense guns began to put dozens or hundreds of tons of landing boats on their bodies into the sea like dumplings. On one of the troop carriers, Vice Admiral Zentaro Wakayama, commander of the 3rd Division, was giving a lecture to the commanders of the brigades and wings under him.

The 3rd Division of Class A, which was at the head of all divisions, was unexpectedly arranged by Seishiro Itagaki, who can now be called His Excellency Major General, as a reconnaissance outpost and vanguard of the landing battle, and a standard and fully equipped Division A of 25,000 people was only sent to the landing site as an outcast and consumables. I was not very happy to accept the order of a junior like "Major General" Itagaki Seishiro, who only had the status of a small major general but commanded the entire huge dispatch army: Why let our old qualified Third Division be the vanguard, let you be a little bastard to hide behind and point fingers, if it weren't for the orders of His Majesty the Emperor and the military headquarters, you wouldn't want to get out of this ship alive.

It's a pity that in a recent theory with Major General Seishiro Itagaki that this self-highly regarded lieutenant general was defeated. Without him, after this guy Itagaki took out the top-grade imperial samurai sword that Emperor Hirohito personally gave him to represent the majesty of the imperial family, together with the order document and letter of appointment of the chief of staff of the general staff of the base camp, there were already many commanders of other divisions and divisions who wanted to find fault with the lieutenant general After seeing this scene, they all obediently obeyed the command of this junior named Seishiro Itagaki who had just been promoted to the rank of major general. This is a strange thing in the Japanese army and even in military circles.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the commander-in-chief, Major General Seishiro Itagaki (Major General Seishiro Itagaki', I hope that you will work hard to add new martial arts to the achievements of the Great Japanese Empire. Here, I wish you all good luck and prosperity!! When Lieutenant General Seishiro Itagaki said the words Major General Seishiro Itagaki not only accentuated his tone, but also gritted his teeth. He longed for the big-headed doll Itagaki Seishiro who was in command in the back bridge and cursed by him, no matter what day it was, as long as he was sent to see Amaterasu by a cannonball from the sky or in the distance, he would be annoyed to see that big-headed doll all day long.

"Hai, Your Excellency the Division Commander, Wu Yun Changlong!! The 3rd Division is prosperous!! The emperor is onboard! Half a year of the Great Japanese Empire! "The 5th Infantry Brigade under the 3rd Division, as the vanguard of the first landing, consists of the 6th Infantry Wing (Wing Commander Kawabe Masa), the 68th Infantry Wing (Wing Commander Oide Haruo Osa), the 29th Infantry Brigade, the 18th Infantry Wing (Wing Commander Saburo Shinohara), the 34th Infantry Wing (Wing Commander Yoshieda Yoshidaisa), the 3rd Cavalry Wing, the 3rd Field Artillery Wing, the 3rd Engineer Wing, the 3rd Baggage Wing, and the Health Team: 1st to 4th Field Hospitals, The weapons service corps, which was composed of several units subordinate to the Third Division, was composed together, and the commanders and leaders of these units pretended not to see the almost iron-blue face of the division commander just now, and they all shouted slogans one by one, and they had no intention of intervening in the war between the major general and the division commander at all.

"Let's go!!" The division commander, Lieutenant General Wakayama Zentaro, looked at the two of his subordinates and had a high hanging expression, but fortunately, the division commander who had been in the top position for a long time held back and did not have a seizure, and he gave orders with a black face.

"Hail!!" The commanders of the brigades and the wing commanders under the division and regiment should say yes in unison.

'Wait and see, bastard Itagaki and one day I'll let you know: Junior!' You can't afford to offend veteran soldiers! 'Staring at his subordinates, they are organized into brigades and squads to ride all kinds of landing craft of different sizes in the shallow sea, but His Excellency the division commander himself has long been thinking about when to wait for the battle to end, and then turn around and slowly settle this account with the big-headed doll Itagaki Seishiro.

As a member of the veteran A unit, the dozen devils held the 38-type rifle that was full of bullets in the magazine and had been loaded and turned over the semi-monocoque speedboat, and cautiously moved in one direction.

After walking for tens of minutes and a distance of about two or three kilometers, seeing that nothing suspicious had happened, the military Cao who was the leader of the team ordered the rest of the team to continue to move forward, and he and the other two soldiers turned back to the semi-monocoque speedboat that had just washed the beach.

The 3rd Division, which was the vanguard, cheered when this signal was sent back, but they were all a little disappointed in their hearts, either frustrated that there was no enemy on the beachhead and did not have the opportunity to compete with the strongest enemy army to prove the bravery of Yamato Koro, or they were disappointed that they did not let the saber in their hands brutally cut off the heads of the vanquished.
