The 11th Frontline Inspection

Xue Yue is really unhappy, coming to the plane from Han Xing, there is a condition on the left, and another opinion, it seems that he has become the leader, and I have become the leader, when will I Xue Yue be commanded by others. But if you are not happy, Xue Yue still has to be patient and listen to what Han Xing said to get what the request is.

Xue Yue had no choice but to tilt his head and say, "Then please speak?" ”

Han Xing said: "Our Zhuxian Southern Expeditionary Army still asks Commander-in-Chief Xue not to directly command, and we will handle military affairs in a mobile manner. ”

"That's not going to work!" Xue Yue's face changed, and he vetoed, "The Battle of Nanchang must have a unified command, you are free from the unified command, what is going on?" ”

Xue Yue was quite angry when he said these words, I led so many high-ranking officers to welcome you, and praised you for being so well equipped, why? Isn't it just for you to be a trump card in my hand to deal with the Japanese! It's good that you don't want to obey me, so don't I bite the urine and soak the empty joy!?

Han Xing had no choice but to explain to him patiently: "We came to Nanchang this time with a special mission, and we are to help fight the Battle of Nanchang. Good steel is on the blade, you won't understand this truth! If we are tied to the big chariot of the Battle of Nanchang, we will lose our mobility, and we will lose the significance of this trip to Nanchang. Please rest assured that we will definitely surprise Commander-in-Chief Xue and definitely greatly contribute to the Battle of Nanchang. ”

Xue Yue saw that Han Xing was talking amazingly, and asked, "Can you reveal your approximate plan of action." ”

Han Xing had no choice but to say: "The Japanese army has newly organized an armored group, and our blade is used to deal with the Japanese army's armored group. As long as the Japanese armored group and the enemy's infantry are dealt with, I believe that Commander-in-Chief Xue will deal with it. How to deal with the enemy's armored group is not yet possible to say to Commander-in-Chief Xue. ”

Xue Yue was confused by what Han Xing said, and he didn't know whether what Han Xing said was true or not, but judging from his past achievements, Han Xing's tactics have always been elusive and incomprehensible. Xue Yue thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I agree to your request." I don't want to command this team of yours, and I can't command it! ”

He couldn't command, and it was obviously an angry remark.

Han Xing was happy, this was a necessary combat principle that he had won under Xue Yue.

Xue Yue said again: "The reporters are waiting in the small hall, are you going to deal with two sentences!" ”

Han Xing said: "I don't have to go, just have Commander-in-Chief Xue to deal with it." ”

Xue Yue smiled, pointed at Han Xing's nose and said, "It's really a slippery head, I can't handle it, you are a slap on the ass and leave, tell me how to face those news reporters in the future." ”

Han Xing smiled and said to Xue Yue: "For the sake of victory in the war, the eldest husband can be informal. Chief Xue is so great, he doesn't care about this little thing! ”

After obtaining Xue Yue's consent, the Southern Expeditionary Army was stationed near the airfield, on the one hand, to receive the equipment unloaded by the planes, and on the other hand, to stay away from the battlefield. It's not that the Southern Expeditionary Army is afraid of death, Han Xing really doesn't want to watch Xue Yue fight this uneconomical positional battle.

Han Xing is a person who has come over, knows history, checked the information, and learned that the Japanese army attacked Nanchang mainly in two ways, one was a feint, and the other was the main attack.

Let's talk about the feint first.

On 12 March, the Japanese "Central China Dispatch Army" ordered the 116th Division directly under it to send the Ishihara Detachment and the Murai Detachment (composed of five brigades of the 119th Brigade) to sail from Hubei Province with the support of the Navy to search the east shore of Poyang Lake and ensure water and land transportation and the safety of the left side of the main force.

The search lasted until the 15th, but no resistance from the Chinese army was encountered, and the search operation was concluded, and the necessary forces were deployed at various points.

On the 18th, the Murai detachment departed from Xingzi by warship and landed near Wucheng, about 30 kilometers northeast of Yongxiu, to attack the Chinese defenders, but was stubbornly resisted by the Chinese 32nd Army and other units. After 4 days of hard fighting, they still failed to break through the defenders' positions.

On the morning of the 23rd, under the cover of aircraft and artillery fire, the Japanese continued to launch a fierce attack, and continued to drop incendiary bombs and chemical bombs. The defenders suffered heavy losses and withdrew from the town of Wu on the 24th and moved back.

After the Murai detachment occupied Wucheng, it continued to carry out operations to open up the Ganjiang River and repair water, and removed the mines laid by the Chinese side.

Let's talk about the main attack.

On March 18, the main forces of the 101st and 106th Divisions of the Japanese Army, as well as their artillery and combat convoys, advanced to the north bank of Xiushui in turn, and occupied Qiujin, the starting point of the attack.

This Qiujin belongs to the boundary of Yongxiu County, which is 20 kilometers northwest of Yongxiu County. There is a Xiushui River in Qiujin, which happens to be a natural defensive barrier.

Xiushui is also called Xiuhe, originating from the eastern foot of Mufu Mountain, the upstream is also called Zhajin water, confluence Siqian water, Daqiao water, Donggang water, Dongjin water, Shankou water, North Bank water, Hangkou water, Fengxiang water, Anxi water, Sandu water, etc., meandering, branch-like distribution, confluence to the central river valley. It is called Xiuhe River at Zengjia Bridge, exits to the northeast, flows through Wuning and Yongxiu, and flows into Poyang Lake after confluence with the Ganjiang River in Wucheng. The Miluo River in the west, originating in Huanglong, flows into Dongting Lake through the water source, the bridge and the Pingjiang River in Hunan.

It is more than 30 meters wide when it is repaired, but it is difficult to say when it rains and is wet.

Xue Yue and Luo Zhuoying relied on Xiushui to set up a 100-kilometer-long defense line to stop the Japanese attack.

After that, the artillery began to conduct test firing and fire reconnaissance. At 16:30 on March 20, the Japanese 11th Army ordered the commander of the 6th Artillery Brigade to command all artillery to fire fiercely at the positions of the 49th Army and the 79th Army of the defenders on the south bank of Xiushui. The sound of 140 cannons covered the banks of the Xiushui River, which was really earth-shattering. The artillery fire that preceded the start of the general offensive lasted more than three hours, mixed with a large number of poison gas shells.

It was a cloudy day, with a wind of about 3 m/s blowing from north to south, which was perfect weather for the use of special ammunition. When the gas bombs were fired, thick red clouds penetrated into the positions of the national army. At that time, the national army did not have the slightest preparation for poison gas bombs, and there was nothing with water, towels, and masks.

After the artillery fire ended, the forward infantry of the devils radiated special gas cylinders and poured battlefield poison into all the dead corners of the battlefield again.

At 19:30, the 106th Division began to force the crossing of Xiushui from Qiujin. The Japanese 106th Division, Han Xing is all too familiar, in the Battle of Wanjialing, he was almost completely annihilated by Xue Yue's powerful attack group. Later, the army was repaired and replenished, and the establishment was reluctantly restored.

This 106 division, if there is no air support, artillery support, plus poison gas. He's nothing......

After the artillery of the devils extended their fire as planned, the infantry attacked in unison and broke through to the Chinese positions. At this time, there was a deathly silence on the Chinese defenders' positions, and not a single Chinese soldier could stand up and fight, and the Japanese army was like no one......

After the Japanese army broke into the Chinese position, they assassinated all the Chinese soldiers lying on the ground who were not dead, hoping to kill them. This must be done on the instructions of their superior officers, who are also afraid that the gas incident will be revealed by the news media in order to arouse the condemnation of everyone around the world.

Han Xing fell into deep pain with the thought of a person who had come over.

The Japanese fought with three axes, air raids, artillery bombardments, and poison gas.

Air raids and artillery bombardment are one of the means of warfare, and no matter how powerful they are, they cannot kill or injure all the opponents on the battlefield. Gas bombs, on the other hand, can almost completely poison or poison each other without protective equipment.

There are two things that are incomprehensible, one thing is that the Nationalist army has not eaten the poison gas of little Japan once or twice, and they still do not make material preparations for another war.

Another thing is that little Japan has not used poison gas once or twice, and the next time they fight, they still have to make it. Completely disregarding the constraints of international conventions and the rules of the game of war.

It can only be explained in this way that Japanese devils are not human beings, and they cannot be treated with human laws.

Han Xing immediately gave an order, one set of anti-poison equipment per person, just like weapons, this is one of the indispensable equipment.

On the evening of the 20th, the 101st Division also began to cross the river from the north of Tujiabu.

Tujiabu is in the north of Yongxiu County, close to Yongxiu County, and there is also a water repair as a barrier in the middle.

The water repair in Tujiabu was originally 30 meters, but because of the rain for several days, the river rose by 3 meters, although it was more difficult for the Japanese army to cross the river, but the defenders' positions were flooded in many places, and most of the obstacles on the water were washed away, which also made the Japanese army cross the water repair.

The two divisions of the Japanese army broke through the front line of the defenders, attacked continuously at night, and occupied a beachhead 2 kilometers deep at dawn on the 21st, covering their sappers to erect pontoon bridges.

At about 8 o'clock, the Japanese chariot group opened the pontoon bridge, attacked the defenders of Dongshan from the front of the 106th Division, and then detoured to Nanchang along the west side of Nanxun Road.

Han Xing is a person who has come from the past, and he has such an advantage that he can "predict" the trend of future wars. Today is March 18th, and the air transport equipment is almost complete. Han Xing said to Hou Dashan and Liu Zhiyuan: "Let's go, I'll lead you to see, the battlefield where our Southern Expeditionary Army fought for the first time?" ”

Hou Dashan was a little confused, and said to Han Xing: "It's going to be a war, where are you going to fight?" ”

Liu Zhiyuan also didn't have any numbers in his heart, and said to Han Xing: "You just walk in the head, and we will follow behind." ”

At that time, there were no jeeps, so Han Xing asked Zhang Xiaosan to prepare two tractors with cannons, Zhang Xiaosan led Wu Xiaoming in front of him to open the road, and the back car was loaded with tarpaulin, and tables, chairs and supplies were placed in it, this was a simple command vehicle.

After the car drove out of Nanchang, Han Xing asked the driver to drive to Fengxin County.

Liu Zhiyuan didn't understand, so he asked Han Xing: "I said Commander Han, the front line is in the north, what are you leading us around to the west, we don't want to go to the scenery." ”

Hou Dashan picked up the words strangely quickly: "I said Commander Han, let's rest when you have time, I finally finished transporting the equipment, just to save worry." What kind of effort are you leading us around, how good it is to sleep at home. ”

Han Xing felt that there were some words that they couldn't understand, so he could only smile and say, "What is it necessary to command the operation, it is a calm and calm mood." Without a calm and stable mood, how can you command the battle! A big battle is about to begin, and it is very necessary to calm down. Have you ever been to Ganbei? Definitely haven't been here. ”
