Hou Dashan stood up a little embarrassed, scratched his scalp and said, "Since Commander Zhang asked me to say two words, I will also say two words. In fact, there is nothing to say, one is to resolutely obey the command of the commander, where the commander tells me to fight, how many shells to fire, I will resolutely carry out the order, no two words. I know that there are many people in this unit and few in the Kuomintang, so I will be a model of unity between the two parties. It's over—"

Hou Dashan's speech was unanimously applauded by everyone.

Zhang Weihan then said: "Next, I would like to ask Chief of Staff Han to talk about the shape of the enemy and us in the Battle of Wanjialing, and the tactics to be adopted by our Southern Expeditionary Army. ”

Han Xing stood up, pointed to the map, and said: "In the Battle of Wuhan, the combat area of the Ninth Theater was in the Jiangnan region of Hubei and Anhui provinces and the whole of Jiangxi and Hunan provinces, and it was under the jurisdiction of the 1st Corps with Xue Yue as the commander-in-chief and the 2nd Corps with Zhang Fakui as the commander-in-chief.

Northern Jiangxi is located on the periphery of Wuhan and is the only way for the Japanese army to enter Wuhan along the south bank of the Yangtze River. The Japanese army commanded the offensive in this area with Okamura Ninji's 11th Army. The Nationalist Government also invested two corps here, heavily guarded. Zhang Fakui's 2nd Corps was deployed on the Rui (Chang) Wu (Ning) Highway and various key points along the river. Xue Yue's 1st Corps served as the garrison of Jinguanqiao and De'an in front of Nanxun (Nanchang-Jiujiang).

In late September, Okamura learned from aerial reconnaissance that the main force of Xue Yue's 1st Corps was fighting on the Rui (Chang) Wu (Ning) Road, and that the defenders between the Nanxun Railway and the Ruiwu Road were weak and there was a gap, so he ordered the 106th Division, which had initially recovered its vitality after reorganization, to advance westward, in an attempt to cut off the connection between the Nanxun Road and the Chinese defenders on the Wuning Road. The 106th Division moved quickly after receiving Okamura's order, and on October 2, the main force of the 106th Division penetrated deep into the Wanjialing area.

The area of Wanjialing is full of mountains and mountains, the terrain is complex, the mountain roads are rugged, and even pack horses are not easy to pass. The Japanese army took the risk of attacking lightly, which happened to create good conditions for the Xue Yue Corps to besiege the 106th Division.

Let's talk about the national army first, although Chen Cheng is the commander of the 9th Theater, the acting commander is General Xue Yue. At present, the troops under the command of the 9th Theater are the 1st Group Army, the 9th Group Army, the 10th Group Army, Ou Zhen of the 4th Army, Ye Zhao of the 66th Army, Yu Jishi of the 74th Army, the 187th Division, the 91st Division, the 142nd Division, the 60th and 19th Divisions, the 13th Division of the new formation, the 6th Reserve Division, a brigade of the 139th Division, and a brigade of the 15th Division, totaling more than 100,000 men. The former commander-in-chief of the enemy was Wu Qiwei, commander of the 9th Group Army.

On the Japanese side, the 106th Division of the Invasion Army was dispatched, and the commander of the division was Lieutenant General Junrokuro Matsuura. The 106th Division has the 111th Infantry Brigade, including the 113th Infantry Wing, the 147th Infantry Wing, and the 136th Brigade, including the 123rd Infantry Wing, the 145th Infantry Wing, and one cavalry, artillery, engineer, and baggage wing. Excluding the troops left behind, the total strength of this roundabout attack was only more than 15,600.

That is to say, the 9th Theater can completely concentrate superior forces to encircle and annihilate this Japanese army.

After discussions, the Southern Expeditionary Force Command decided that our task was to cooperate with the 9th Theater of Operations, quickly mobilize troops, block the enemy, and provide effective helicopter troop transfers, effective fire support, and the tasks of the general reserve on the battlefield. ”

After Han Xing finished talking about the shape on the battlefield, Zhang Weihan organized the commanders to have a discussion. Han Xing did not participate in the discussion, and directly took two helicopters, protected by Zhang Xiaosan, the commander of the guard company, with a platoon, and flew directly to the front line of Wanjialing to meet General Xue Yue.

The long propeller of the Z-8 helicopter began to rotate, and the fan of the propeller produced a strong upward force, the air pressed down, and under the big wings was flying sand and rocks, and the wind was dancing. Although many soldiers around have seen the helicopter take-off process, every time it takes off, it still attracts a lot of fighters, watching this thrilling scene with enthusiasm.

The door of the helicopter was not closed, and a Type 89 12.7 mm heavy machine gun was mounted on one side, and if anyone dared to disrespect the helicopter, they would be shot with a heavy machine gun without mercy.

Zhang Xiaosan, who was the platoon commander of the first company of the special operations battalion to the commander of the guard company, took a guard platoon to protect Han Xing.

Han Xing saw that Zhang Xiaosan had only been injured not long after he was injured to protect himself, and although he was wrapped in thick bandages, he still led the guard platoon to go out with injuries, and he couldn't help but feel a little sorry in his heart, and said softly to Zhang Xiaosan: "Company Commander Zhang, I am tired, for my sake, I am injured, and I have to carry out this mission." ”

Zhang Xiaosan smiled and said, "What am I, you are the soul of the Southern Expeditionary Army." Even without our guard platoon, we can't do without you! ”

Han Xing was a little embarrassed when he said this, and hurriedly said: "Without the chief of staff, you can choose another one, if there are no officers and soldiers at the grassroots level, there will be no foundation, and I will become the commander of the light pole, and this battle will really be impossible to fight." ”

At this time, Wu Xiaoming had been promoted to the platoon commander of the guard platoon, and Li Dazhong, of course, became the squad leader under Wu Xiaoming. In this regard, Li Dazhong was still very unconvinced, and once asked Wu Xiaoming: "Why am I always a head shorter than you, why, how much stronger are you than me?" ”

Wu Xiaoming said: "If you think so, it means that you are a head shorter than me." ”

Li Dazhong didn't understand this sentence.

At this moment, Wu Xiaoming was looking at the front with all his body, and under the helicopter was a battlefield full of artillery fire, the earth was churning, and from time to time clusters of firelight flashed, and clusters of black smoke rose up. Sometimes, stray bullets rise into the air, but they rise more and more slowly, and rise more and more slowly, until they come to a standstill, and then fall down again.

Countless ships shuttled through the river, and from time to time the turbid river water struck a string of giant Lang, and sometimes stirred up a string of small Lang, splashing a Lang flower, and the Lang flower splashed everywhere.

The sky above the helicopter is relatively calm, with only sheep-like clouds and blue sky, revealing a peaceful atmosphere everywhere, as if it is two worlds underground.

The helicopter flew up to an altitude of 4,000 meters and flew forward at an even speed at that altitude. Flying low is easy to be attacked by enemy artillery fire, flying too high, the air is thin, and people are very uncomfortable, so they have to choose to fly at an altitude that has a certain height for people and is not excessively uncomfortable.

Suddenly, Zhang Fei, the pilot of the Z-8 helicopter, shouted: "An enemy plane has been discovered, and the target is directly in front of it, at a distance of 8,000 meters." ”

At this time, all the soldiers of the guard platoon were nervous, the assault rifles were safed, and the heavy machine gunners were all turning the machine gun handles one by one, and the muzzles of the heavy machine guns were turning, as if they were ready to go to war at any time.

Zhang Fei shouted again: "The enemy plane is a reconnaissance plane, ready for battle. ”

Zhang Fei saw that although the enemy plane was a reconnaissance plane, it was also quite dangerous, and the helicopter was not designed for combat, and its main task was to transport troops and goods. The helicopter also has its shortcomings, that is, its speed is too low, that is, the maximum speed is 240 km/h, if it attacks, it will not be able to catch up with the enemy plane, and if it retreats, it will not be able to escape the enemy plane.

I can't afford to provoke it, can't I hide it, Zhang Fei took the risk of pouting his tail upward, and the helicopter stabbed down again.

The devil's reconnaissance plane got cheap and sold well, let it go, it still didn't appreciate it, and chased after the helicopter again.

From 4,000 meters, it quickly dropped to 3,000 meters and 2,000 meters, and at this time, Zhang Fei saw that the 6 tanks of the Japanese army on the ground were slaughtering the Chinese soldiers on the ground.

The commander of these six tanks was the leader of the Zhu Tube, and his six tanks could be said to have killed six wolves in the flock and six camels in the deer herd, and they were lining up and shooting fiercely with machine guns at the fleeing Chinese soldiers.

Just as a sickle harvests life, rows of Chinese soldiers continue to fall under the roar of devilish bullets.

Some Chinese soldiers were in a hurry, using Czech machine guns and medium rifles, constantly firing bullets at these tanks. But the bullet hit the steel plate of the tank, only a little spark, and then the bullet slid to the side, which did not work at all.

Some soldiers picked up bundles of grenades and tried to die with the tank, but before they could get close to the tank, they were knocked down by the tank's machine guns.

This tank is a Japanese Type 94 light tank, it is 3.08 meters long, 1.62 meters wide, 1.62 meters high, 3.2 tons of dead weight, 3.45 tons of combat weight, and 23.5 kilowatts of engine power. The maximum speed of the vehicle is 40 km/h, the maximum range is 208 km, and the occupants are 2.

The cab and power compartment are at the front of the hull, the cab is on the right, the power compartment is on the left, and the engine is behind the gearbox, that is, in the front of the middle of the hull.

The fighting compartment was located at the rear of the hull, with a gun turret in the upper part, and its main armament was a 7.7 mm machine gun, and a few cars were equipped with 37 mm guns. There are hatches for both the commander and the driver, and a rear door at the rear of the hull makes it easy for the occupants to get on and off the vehicle and communicate with the towed vehicle.

This kind of chariot, also known as the bean chariot, means that it is just like a small bean, and it is extremely unappreciated.

It is this kind of broken car, in front of the relatively backward Chinese army, but it is the ambassador yinwei.

The squadron leader of the Zhu tube was howling arrogantly on the tank: "Kill! Kill! Kill these people and let them taste the power of our Imperial Japanese chariots! ”

Zhang Fei, who drove the straight 8 helicopter, smiled coldly at such a bean chariot: "What is this called a tank car, to put it bluntly, it is just a layer of iron pasted on the power plant." If you can't touch me, then you are lucky, if you do, then your arrogant days will come to an end. ”

Han Xing saw such a scene of massacre, but he was very angry, these soldiers of the national army are our brothers and our allies, it is tolerable to call such a bean chariot to bully, which is unbearable!

Han Xing roared angrily: "Zhang Xiaosan! ”

Although Zhang Xiaosan was injured and his face was still a little pale, those who had practiced martial arts still had a lot of confidence, and shouted: "Yes!" Immediately stood in front of Han Xing.

"Can you stand it?" Han Xing shouted at Zhang Xiaosan.

"I can't stand it anymore, and there is a limit to my patience." Zhang Xiaosan had already understood what Han Xing meant, and begged, "Is it for them to extinguish the fire!" ”
