Chapter 357: Shanghai Recovered
"Tie them all up for me!"
Long Yi shouted, and soon, several special combat team members moved to tie up all these devil senior officers, during which there was also a devil major general who was ready to resist, and was directly hit by a special combat team member with a rifle butt and his face was covered with blood.
Inside the entire courtyard, dozens of special combat personnel have basically eliminated all the little devils who resisted, and some devils and officers at all levels have also been captured alive.
This is the headquarters of the little devils, after the gunshots rang out in this area, some little devils not far from here hurriedly ran over, but these little devils could not enter this courtyard, and many little devils were killed by the special combat team as soon as they arrived at the gate.
At the gate of the courtyard, there are a lot of devils. Not far from the gate, a devil who led the team was covered in a cold sweat, because the more than 100 little devils he brought were quickly killed dozens of them.
So many people were killed and injured in the short confrontation just now, and the devil said that the combat effectiveness of this unit in the command center is too strong, and a number of its own senior officers in the command headquarters are only afraid of trouble, but this is the temporary headquarters of the entire Japanese army in Shanghai, and there are many senior officers in it.
"Kill to !!"
The devil Nakasa stiffened, held his command knife, and ordered all his personnel to charge, and the devil Nakasa said that he must rush in at all costs.
The sound of intensive shooting continued to sound, but these little devils still failed to rush into the headquarters, and as the battle progressed, a large number of devil corpses lay around the headquarters, and several special combat personnel were injured. However, the injuries were not serious.
On the periphery of this headquarters, there are more and more little devils who rush over after hearing the news. The pressure on the special combat team members was also relatively great, and at the last time, Long Yi had an idea and tied up a few middle-level officers such as Devil Shao Zuo and Zhong Zuo to act as human shields in front.
Seeing this, the little devils besieging this place did not dare to attack on a large scale anymore, and the pressure on the special combat team members was greatly reduced. Minutes and minutes passed, and after two or three hours, the special combat team members noticed that the gunfire around them was getting closer and closer.
The special operators also found out. A large number of little devils on the periphery of the headquarters have panicked, and many soldiers have appeared in the eyes of the special combat troops, and the soldiers besieging the area around Wusong Port have already attacked.
The fighting around Wusong Wharf lasted until the second half of the night, and after the second half of the night. The sound of gunfire in this area gradually thinned out. Obviously, the thinning of the sound of gunfire means that the little devils in this area have been basically annihilated.
Of the nearly 20,000 little devils in the Wusong Harbor area, except for the thousands of little devils who were sunk by the submarine force, a large number of ships were sunk, and the rest of the little devils were either annihilated by the soldiers or captured alive.
In particular, all the high-ranking officers of the Japanese army in Shanghai were captured alive by Long Yi and others, and in addition to these devil generals, lieutenant generals, and major generals, there were also some middle-level officers such as devil Dazuo, Zhongzuo, and Shaozuo, and the number was about 20 or 30 people.
This was the largest number of people captured and the highest level since the establishment of the new 6th Army. Even Nishio Shouzo, a first-class general of the Japanese army, was captured alive by Long Yi.
At dawn.
The fighting in the area of Wusong Wharf was basically over, and a large number of soldiers began to clean up the battlefield in this area. Several large trucks, under the guidance and protection of several armored vehicles, slowly left the area around Wusong Wharf, and on each truck was a tightly tied devil officer.
With the war in the Wusonggang area basically over, the fighting in the rest of the downtown area of Shanghai is also coming to an end, and there are still some remnants of the little devils in these areas who are surrounded by the soldiers and gradually eliminated by the soldiers.
On the main streets of downtown Shanghai, a large number of Japanese corpses have been cleaned up, and there is no more fighting on the main streets, only groups of soldiers are under martial law on these main streets, and at the same time, many armored vehicles, off-road vehicles, tanks, and other vehicles patrol along the main streets from time to time.
At some of the main street intersections, there were even some armored vehicles and tanks parked, and next to these armored vehicles and tanks there were soldiers with loaded guns standing straight.
The entire downtown area of Shanghai is currently under military control for the time being!
At this point in the battle, there were not many remnants of the Japanese army, and it was only a matter of time before they were divided and surrounded, surrounded by a large number of soldiers in a few small areas, and it was only a matter of time before they were wiped out.
With the end of the battle around Wusong Wharf, almost all the top echelons of the Japanese army in Shanghai were captured alive, and the entire Japanese army in Shanghai had completely lost its command, and those Japanese troops who were divided and surrounded also lost contact with their superiors and fell into the siege of the soldiers.
By noon, the Japanese troops in these areas were basically wiped out by the soldiers, and the gunfire in the entire downtown area of Shanghai gradually stopped.
The vast number of Shanghai citizens, who have been hiding in their homes with their doors and windows closed, have found that the sound of gunfire has gradually become sparse since this morning, and it is even more difficult to hear the sound of gunfire at noon.
Some citizens saw through the cracks in the doors, through the windows, that the streets outside were full of neat and mighty soldiers, and even saw tanks and armored vehicles.
That's right! The Japanese army in the area of Shanghai was completely annihilated by the new 6th Army, and the big city of Shanghai was officially recovered!
Shanghai is restored!
Beginning at noon, patrol cars, with horns, shouted loudly along the streets of downtown Shanghai, informing the people that the little devils have been completely wiped out, Shanghai has been officially recovered, everyone is safe, and everyone can rest assured that they can walk out of their homes!
With the shouting over and over again, a lot of people gradually walked out of the house, seeing these people who were still a little worried, many soldiers enthusiastically took the initiative to greet each other, waved to the people, or laughed, and even greeted a few loud times.
Some ordinary people looked a little frightened at first, but then they gradually became bolder, and they let go a lot, and even a little joy appeared on their faces.
The vast number of people are naturally very happy about the recovery of Shanghai, and everyone has been looking forward to this day for a long time, and has long hoped that the new 6th Army can come over, eliminate the little devils, and recover Shanghai.
Some ordinary people walked out into the streets, gathered together in twos and threes, with happy and joyful faces, and exchanged ears.
"Lao Wang! Shanghai is really recovered, and the little devils are all finished! “
"Yes! The new 6th Army is amazing! ”
"I've long heard of the prestige of the new 6th Army, and sure enough, the little devil is vulnerable in front of the new 6th Army!"
"How advanced the weapons and equipment of the new 6th Army are! You see, there are armored vehicles and tanks over there! ”
“……”
The vast number of people who walked to the streets were filled with irrepressible joy, and everyone was in a happy mood, as if they had encountered a great happy event.
The recovery of Shanghai has always said to the common people in the Shanghai area that this is really a great joy, and the days when the broad masses of people were humiliated and oppressed are gone forever, and the sunny and happy days are about to come.
The number of people on the streets gradually increased, and even some shops opened their doors, and some ordinary people, some shopkeepers, etc., even set off firecrackers, and the whole downtown of Shanghai was lively.
In the afternoon, the grand entrance ceremony began.
Along the main streets, the newly formed Sixth Army formed a neatly organized unit to enter the city, and this unit entered the downtown area of Shanghai from the west of Shanghai, and the broad masses of the people who received the news beat gongs and drums, dressed in costumes, and welcomed the mighty division of the new Sixth Army.
At the front were 10 M3 half-track vehicles, each with two neat rows of warriors standing on the compartment, and the thick long barrels of the Browning heavy machine guns on the armored vehicles looked imposing.
The 10 M3 half-tracks were followed by 10 M4 Sherman tanks, which drove slowly, and the hatch cover on the top of each tank opened, revealing half of a tankman, who saluted the civilians on both sides of the street.
Immediately following these tanks, there was a convoy of off-road vehicles, Ye Feng was dressed in a straight general's uniform, with a majestic face, riding in one of the off-road vehicles, and the convoy moved slowly.
When some ordinary people saw Ye Feng wearing a military uniform, they immediately became excited, cheered one after another, and shouted happily.
"Look, that's General Ye!"
A lot of ordinary people, with a look of excitement, saw Ye Feng who was close at hand, right in front of their eyes, inexplicably excited, Ye Feng's name, most of the people in Shanghai were like thunder, today, seeing Ye Feng with their own eyes, everyone was uncontrollably excited.
Ye Feng sat on the off-road vehicle, and waved his hand to the welcoming people on both sides of the street from time to time, and the whole atmosphere was very warm, almost reaching its peak.
After the convoy composed of off-road vehicles, a team of neat soldiers, head high, with neat steps, long marching procession, very specific and visually impactful, this team of soldiers, four people in a row, the team is neat, majestic and high-spirited, very spectacular.
This is a soldier of an infantry battalion, behind this infantry battalion, more than a dozen large trucks slowly followed, behind each large truck, towing a 105mm howitzer, the thick muzzle, revealing a bit of hideous, showing its great power.
The people on both sides of the street saw all this, they were very enthusiastic, gongs and drums rang out, firecrackers burst out, and some reporters who got the news grabbed their positions one after another and took pictures of this scene with their cameras.
It won't be long before tomorrow, maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after tomorrow, newspapers, radio stations across the country, and maybe foreign newspapers and radio stations will report on this event, and in the next few days, there will be a warm response throughout the country and even in the world circles.
The ceremony of entering the city is vast and mighty, and the people who saw this scene were excited and happy but also felt deeply proud, and we also have such a mighty division in China!
Shanghai was recovered, and Ye Feng left a strong mark in the history of China's Anti-Japanese War! (To be continued......)
