These three strange-looking vehicles are a kind of bridging tank.

Most of the bridge-building tanks had no turret on top, and instead of the turret was a flat, retractable steel bridge. The same is true for the three tanks, so it looks weird, and they start building bridges after they get to the river.

No wonder the captain of the devil brigade will change his face drastically, once a strong steel bridge is erected on this river, the soldiers' tanks, armored vehicles, large trucks, etc. will be unimpeded, and a large number of soldiers can easily cross the river.

"Baga, that's the bridge tank, the bridge tank of the new 6th Army!" Captain Shaozuo of the devil shouted in horror.

The group of devil officers next to him, as well as a large number of little devils, were still confused, obviously the first time they had heard of bridge-building tanks, and they didn't know what these tanks would do.

The three tanks, thirty to fifty meters apart from each other, lined up on the riverside and began to build a bridge. Drive to the river, lift the folded steel bridge at one end, and then, let go of the folded steel bridge section by section, and the other end of the bridge is erected on the other side of the river, and the 20-meter-long steel bridge is erected on the river.

The width of the Shenjia River is less than ten meters, just a small river, and the 20-meter-long bridge is enough, and soon, that is, in a few minutes, the three steel bridges will be erected. In this way, a battlefield pontoon bridge was erected. Infantry, tanks, artillery, and vehicles can all pass through the bridge and smoothly cross the Shenjia River.

At this time, many little devils woke up like a dream, only to know what these three tanks were for, and the little devils looked at the three steel bridges dumbfounded, and their hearts were full of shock.

The speed of this bridge is also too fast. Many little devils have never heard of it, and they have never heard of such a bridge.

These bridge-building tanks were naturally exchanged by Ye Feng from the "Nuwa" system, given the dense water network in East China. There are rivers everywhere, tanks and armored vehicles are affected by the terrain of the water network, and many bridges and roads have been blown up by little devils.

In order to ensure the unimpeded passage of troops, Ye Feng exchanged dozens of bridge-building tanks to quickly build bridges for various troops and quickly pass through the restricted terrain.

Three steel bridges were erected. Tanks drove on these bridges, and through the bridges smoothly drove to the other side of the river, many soldiers. With weapons in hand, he followed these tanks across the river, and suddenly, a fierce battle began.

There is the cover and guidance of tanks. The fighters have the absolute upper hand. In addition, after waiting for more than half an hour just now, some troops came along the road, some armored vehicles and tanks came, and many tanks and armored vehicles crossed the river, and the little devils on the other side were constantly shot and killed.

On the tanks, the fighters opened the hatch on the top of the tanks, and a Browning heavy machine gun fired fiercely at the little devils, behind these tanks. They are often followed by a large number of fighters, as few as a dozen. Most thirty or forty people.

"Da, da, da......"

An M4 tank took the lead, and the heavy machine gun on the tank fired fiercely at the little devils not far away, which was a firing point for the little devils, stacked with sandbags, and a Type 92 heavy machine gun was erected, and the number of little devils was at least twenty or thirty.

Dense heavy machine gun bullets killed a lot of little devils. One little devil was directly hit in the head by a thick machine gun bullet, and another little devil had his neck broken and his head flew out of the distance.

The whole devil's firepower splashed blood, and a famous little devil fell headlong and died of anger. The fighters who followed behind the tank, also holding their own Garand rifles and their Thomson submachine guns, shot at the little devils.

The fighters were very firepowered, and these twenty or thirty little devils were quickly killed. This M4 tank led the fighters onwards.

The rest of the tanks were the same, leading the fighters like bamboos, firing fiercely while moving forward. On the ground, there were soon a large number of devil corpses, and those puppet soldiers were already frightened, and many people put down their weapons and squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands.

Seeing that the soldiers were so fierce, the captain of the devil brigade was startled and immediately prepared to retreat, but just as he turned around, a string of dense bullets hit the back of the devil Shaozuo, and the blood flashed, and the captain of the devil fell to the ground and died of exhaustion.

In just half an hour, the little devils in the area of Shenjia Bridge were all cleared, using the three steel bridges on the river, a large number of soldiers, and a large number of large trucks passed quickly along here, obviously, a large number of follow-up troops also came.

Such battles are happening everywhere in the western suburbs of Shanghai. The new 6th Army had a total of 10 standard infantry divisions, two armored divisions, and two tank divisions in East China, most of which participated in the fighting, and the offensive of the new 6th Army was unstoppable.

The seventh, eighth, and ninth infantry divisions, plus part of the first armored division, were stationed in Suzhou, Wuxi, and Zhangjiagang to resist the Japanese puppet army coming from the direction of Nanjing.

The 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th Infantry Divisions, the 1st Armored Division, and the 1st Mechanized Infantry Division. The 2nd Division participated in the battle to recover Shanghai, and the 10th Infantry Division served as a reserve force, temporarily responsible for the defense of Ningbo and Hangzhou.

The 2nd Armored Division was temporarily stationed in Jiaxing and also served as a reserve force, which could support the front line at any time and support the fighting of all units on the front line.

On the Xuzhou side, the troops of the newly formed 6th Army did not move, and temporarily stood still. In Xuzhou, the new 6th Army had two standard infantry divisions, the 11th Infantry Division and the 12th Infantry Division, which were formed on the basis of some veterans.

In addition to the two standardized infantry divisions, there is also an armored division in the Xuzhou area, that is, the third armored division, which was expanded from a tank regiment of the armored division and is currently stationed in the Zaozhuang area.

In addition to the two standardized infantry divisions and the third armored division, there is also an aviation unit at Xuzhou Airport, which is also the establishment of an air force division, that is, the third air division, equipped with more than 100 aircraft of various types.

Xuzhou's troops did not go south to participate in the war, and the offensive of the new 6th Army was also very smooth, along the road, and there were many bridge-building tanks that could erect steel bridges at any time, and the troops advanced smoothly, and in just three days, the troops participating in the war broke through the first line of defense of the Japanese army one after another.

In order to delay the attack of the soldiers, the little devils blew up almost all the highways and bridges, and many of the roads were even dug up by the waist, but all this could not stop the pace of the advance of the units of the new 6th Army.

In just three days, the new 6th Army, a total of six standardized infantry divisions, with the cooperation of a large number of tanks and armored vehicles, and with the cooperation of a large number of planes of the 1st and 2nd Air Divisions, they have smoothly advanced and are getting closer and closer to the downtown area of Shanghai.

Nanjing, Central China Front Headquarters.

The entire Japanese army headquarters was busy, and a heavy atmosphere was permeating the busyness, and many Japanese officers had solemn faces and were not careful, and the Japanese officers who entered and exited were also in a hurry.

In the command hall of the Japanese army, the heavy atmosphere seemed to have become a little thicker, and many senior officers had black faces, while those middle and junior officers were cautious and fearful.

A Japanese major general was reporting the situation to Okamura Ninji, who listened quietly, but Okamura Ninji's face was not good-looking at all, and he seemed to be a little hideous.

"Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief, at present, the new 6th Army has fully broken through our first line of defense and is directly approaching our second line of defense, and in the past three days of fighting, we have suffered a lot of losses, and it is estimated that our casualties have exceeded 30,000."

"Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief, we have been analyzing the new 6th Army in the past few days, and according to our analysis, the number of troops dispatched by the new 6th Army to attack Shanghai at this time may exceed 200,000, which is not less than our defenders in terms of numbers."

Major General Devil hesitated for a moment, and then reported: "In addition, according to our statistics, the new 6th Army dispatched a large number of combat vehicles, and the number of various types of combat vehicles is estimated to be nearly 1,000, in addition, the number of heavy artillery is only more than 500. ”

Okamura Ningji, who had been silent, changed his face when he heard such a report, and asked in disbelief: "Your statistics are correct?" The new 6th Army dispatched nearly a thousand combat vehicles and more than 500 heavy artillery? ”

Okamura Ningji's face was cloudy, obviously thinking about something, Okamura Ningji was far from thinking, the new 6th Army dispatched so much heavy equipment, Okamura Ningji thought in his heart, is this still a Chinese army? It has so many heavy weapons and equipment.

After thinking for a long time, Okamura asked again: "How did we attack the troops in Wuxi and Suzhou?" ”

The chief of staff of the devil next to him took over the topic and slowly reported: "Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief, our offensive of tens of thousands of troops attacking Wuxi and Suzhou has been seriously frustrated, the progress is slow, and there are many casualties. ”

"Yaga, how can this be?"

The chief of staff of the devil smiled miserably and said: "Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief, after the outbreak of war in this area, many units of the New Fourth Army and many units of the National Army also rushed over to join in the fun, and we had to allocate a large number of troops to deal with the harassment of these troops. ”

"Yaga! Damn the New Fourth Army! Okamura Ninji shouted viciously.

After listening to the report, Okamura Ninji thought for a long time, and a plan came to mind, and after thinking about it again, Okamura Ninji himself nodded secretly.

With this idea and plan in mind, Okamura Ninji immediately convened a meeting of a group of devil officers in his command hall to formulate a detailed battle plan, preparing to strike a thunderous blow to the newly formed 6th Army in Wuxi and Suzhou, and relieve the pressure on the Japanese army in Shanghai.

Okamura Ninji must be going to have some kind of moth.
