Chapter 70: Two Hours
A brigade commander asked, "Captain Xia, can you analyze the battle situation in Shanghai?" "That's what everyone cares about the most. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Zhang Zhizhong also said: "Celestial Empire, tell me why the Japanese army in Shanghai is so difficult to fight?" ”
Xia Chao said: "The combat effectiveness of the Japanese Marine Corps, I don't need to say anything, everyone has experienced it. What I want to say is that in fact, this battle is not difficult to fight, not to mention our special combat team, that is, you can take the target in front of you in 2 hours, and you can completely annihilate the Japanese army tonight. ”
Hearing this, everyone couldn't believe it, and Master Wang Jingjiu asked, "How is this possible, can you tell me how to fight?" ”
Xia Chao said: "Generals, in terms of strength, the national army is several times that of the Japanese army, in terms of equipment, the national army is not inferior to the Japanese army, and in terms of bravery, you are even stronger than the Japanese army." However, there was only one reason why the Japanese army could not be defeated, and that was that the tactics were wrong. Do you think the battle is too chaotic? ”
A brigade commander said, "yes, I feel a little messy. The Japanese relied on strong fortifications to form crossfire, and their marksmanship was very accurate, so it was really difficult for us to deal with? ”
Xia Chao said: "Actually, this question is very simple, let's take a look. As he spoke, he picked up three cups and arranged them in a triangle.
The generals all gathered around.
Xia Chao said: "This is the position of the Japanese army, they are hiding here, and the weapons of the national army cannot damage their fortifications." No matter how the national army attacks, it will be attacked by crossfire, so the casualties are high, right? ”
Sun Yuanliang said: "Do you have any way? ”
Xia Chao said: "These positions of the Japanese army, you don't look at them as a whole, for example, these firepower points, you number them, then they are three independent targets." Dealing with a single target, I don't think there will be any confusion. ”
Wang Jingjiu said: "Well, there is some truth, you go on." ”
Xia Chao said: "To deal with the enemy guarding a strong fortification, you divide him into several firing points, select soldiers with good marksmanship, a group of 10 people, and a machine gun, and each group blocks his shooting hole. Excuse me, is it possible for him to fight back? ”
A brigade commander slapped the table and said, "That's right, if you fight like this, the devil will be uncomfortable!" ”
Xia Chao said: "There are a lot of us, suppress the firepower of every devil, how can the devil's firepower be played, no matter how good his marksmanship is, as soon as he shows his head, there are so many people greeting." Even if he didn't kill him, but he didn't have time to aim calmly, what kind of marksmanship did he talk about? ”
Sun Yuanliang's eyes lit up and said, "Okay, it's a good way." ”
Xia Chao said: "The Japanese firepower has been suppressed, so we can deal with them calmly." The next question is how to deal with their strong fortifications. ”
A brigade commander said: "Yes, they are hiding inside and can't come out, so we can't do anything about them?" ”
Xia Chao said: "It's not that there is no way, but there are many ways."
The Japanese pillboxes were strong, but they were also made of reinforced concrete, and they were not indestructible. I'll tell you a few ways to do it:
1. Push down the mountain artillery 100 meters away from the target, aim and shoot directly, and clear their firing points one by one.
Second, it is better to use anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns to hit the state's designated firing points. You will say that anti-aircraft machine guns can't break the devil's bunker. In fact, this is not the case, one bullet can knock out a fist-sized cement, ten bullets, 100 bullets, what strong bunker can't be broken?
3. Moving the mortar to a distance of 80 meters from the enemy and firing at a 30-degree angle can still clear the target on the upper floor of the high-rise building of the Japanese army.
Fourth, the enemy's fire is suppressed, and the infantry can get close to the enemy, and it is a good way to use flamethrowers, and grenades can also be used.
5. Drive the tank over ......"
Wang Jingjiu didn't wait for Xia Chao to finish speaking, he stood up, shook his fist fiercely with his right hand, and said loudly: "Okay, I understand, I'll go back and kill those little Japan!" "I'm leaving.
Xia Chao said: "Senior Commander Wang, please wait a minute, I have a complete battle plan, can you see if it's okay?" ”
Sun Yuanliang said: "Brother Xia, you say. "Well, the names have changed.
Xia Chao told him about his plan, and General Zhang Zhizhong said: "I think it's feasible, what do you all think?" ”
Everyone thought it was feasible and agreed.
General Zhang Zhizhong made up his mind and issued an operational order. All the ministries went back to prepare.
After everyone left, General Zhang Zhizhong said to Xia Chao: "Heavenly Empire, you came in time, this time you came, just stay." Look, is your special combat team part of the Ninth Army, after all, it's supported by your own strength, and the pressure is too great, right? You can rest assured, in terms of weapons and logistics, I will strongly support you. ”
Xia Chao said: "Uncle Zhang, I understand your kindness, the little nephew should keep the status quo for the time being, I will cooperate with you in Shanghai, but I need complete autonomy, so that I can give full play to the role of the special combat team." ”
Zhang Zhizhong nodded and said, "Okay, if you need anything, just put it forward, I'll try to solve it for you." ”
Xia Chao said, "Thank you, Uncle Zhang." ”
After bidding farewell to Zhang Zhizhong, Xia Chao returned to the temporary residence of the special combat team and began to arrange for tonight's operation.
After holding out for less than two hours, the 87th Division occupied Hujiang University, the 88th Division occupied the Bazi Bridge and other key points, and the Japanese troops all retreated to the Japanese Marine Corps Headquarters on Jiangwan Road.
At this time, the Japanese army still had less than 2,000 troops.
When the good news reached Zhang Zhizhong's ears, he was very happy and hurriedly sent a telegram to Chairman Chiang, who was always worried about the war in Shanghai.
In the past few days, Chairman Chiang was very anxious about the war in Shanghai, the Japanese army had already increased its troops in Shanghai on a large scale, and the war in Shanghai had not yielded results for a long time.
At this time, it was six o'clock in the evening, and Song Meiling, who was very worried about her husband's health, specially made some light meals for Chairman Jiang and personally brought them over to invite him to eat. Chairman Jiang was contemplating the rain outside the window at this time, and heard the footsteps behind him, and it was his beloved wife who came.
He turned his head and said, "I've worked hard for you, I can't eat it." ”
Song Meiling said: "Darling, the war has just begun, and there will be more troubles in the future." Your body is important, and the country needs you to take care of it. ”
Chairman Jiang couldn't bear to brush off her kindness, so he sat down and tasted the bird's nest soup, although it tasted delicious, but he was like chewing wax at this time.
At this moment, Wang Shihe, the chief of the guard, came in excitedly and reported: "Sir, Shanghai is a good news." ”
