With the cooperation of the warships of the British and French allied forces, the Qing army landed on the front line of Hongkou, and fortunately, the Wehrmacht had been prepared for a long time, so it was not caught off guard. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

After the reorganization, the combat effectiveness of the national defense force has been greatly enhanced, tactical coordination, and tactical coordination are very in place, the military research institute of the national defense force has developed large-caliber artillery, and the automobile has also been successfully manufactured with the unremitting efforts of researchers; according to the situation of later generations, the national defense force has discovered the existence of a considerable amount of oil in Guangxi Baise and Sichuan, and has begun to exploit and refine the chemical industry.

As chief of the general staff of the National Defense Forces, Nie Shicheng had already led the team to the front line to command operations and the forward command headquarters. Nie Shicheng stood in front of the map and watched: "Find out how many troops the Qing army has dispatched this time, and how many warships are there for foreigners?" The staff officer beside him said: "Chief of Staff, the latest news just came from the Military Intelligence Department, the Qing army has dispatched a total of 200,000 people, as for the foreign warships, there are now 32 warships, but according to the reconnaissance, the enemy warships have not all arrived, and the follow-up warships have not yet arrived. ”

Listening to the staff officer's report, Nie Shicheng thought in his heart: "It seems that the situation is very unfavorable." He stared at the map for a while, turned back to the staff officer next to him and asked, "Did our artillery come up?" The staff officer turned around and picked up a stack of documents: "Report to the chief of staff, our artillery is in place and ready to fire at any time, and it is said that all of them are the latest artillery developed by our army, with a long range and great power." ”

"Give me the First Army to take over the defense of Hongkou." Nie Shicheng said, and the staff officer next to him picked up the phone and connected to the First Army: "Hey, this is the front-line command center." ”；“ Hey, front finger, I'm a staff officer of the First Army. ”；“ Tell them that the artillery will give support later, and tell them to report the parameters to the artillerymen. Nie Shicheng said. Hey, the artillery will provide artillery support later, please send the coordinate parameters to the artillerymen, okay, that's it. ”

In order to cope with this battle, Zhang Yuanzheng specially transferred three heavy artillery divisions, and the artillery shells in the rear were even more carts pulled forward, and the commanders of the three artillery divisions had been impatient for a long time, and as soon as they received the news of support from the front-line headquarters, they couldn't wait to take action.

"It's finally time for our artillery to strike." The commander of the first artillery division said happily, and the other two division commanders also nodded with a smile: "Yes, it's finally us, this time it's the first appearance of our army's new artillery, we must show the majesty of our artillery, and let the enemy see our strength." ”

The First Group Army was overjoyed after receiving the news of artillery support, thinking that this would be good, and let you taste the taste of being bombed; with the coordinates in place, the three new-style heavy artillery divisions of 122 mm caliber raised the muzzles of the black holes, and the gunners raised the flags, and the bright red flag shining in the sun was like a life-urging charm, and as it fell, nearly 300 artillery pieces roared, and the shells flew towards the Qing troops who had already landed on the shore.

Under the heavy artillery fire of the Wehrmacht, the Qing army suffered heavy casualties, and the Qing generals were very annoyed by this, and the commanders of Britain, France, and other countries were surprised by the shelling just now, they did not expect that in this backward country, such advanced artillery would be produced, and this kind of artillery has surpassed any type of artillery in their country, and this situation made them feel afraid.

The British commander Moore was very surprised and said: "God, how can this poor and backward country and nation make such a good artillery, it is more powerful than any kind of artillery in the British Empire, God, how is this possible, can anyone tell me what is going on." "Everyone present was shocked by such heavy artillery fire, and there was no one to answer his question at all, which was also the question that the commanders of the countries present wanted to ask.

While they were shocked, they also wanted to spread the news back to China as soon as possible, and various countries immediately sent people back to report the news; after years of development, the Wehrmacht has surpassed Britain, France, and other countries by a lot in science and technology, and its economic development level has also caught up with Britain.

The commander of the First Army looked at the corpses dropped by the enemy on the beachhead, "Okay, good bombing, hahahahahaha..." After beating the enemy on the beachhead, the Wehrmacht's artillery fire began to extend to the warships on the sea, and the foreigners were proud of themselves, thinking that the Wehrmacht could not help their warships, and when the Wehrmacht shells fell next to the warships, they woke up the foreigners who were still in a state of shock, and the British warship commander Moore immediately ordered the warships to retreat.

Although the warships of Britain and France retreated quickly, four or five warships were still hit by shells and completely sunk at the mouth of the Yangtze River, and the Wehrmacht had the upper hand at the beginning of the battle.

Nie Shicheng in the front command was listening to the latest battle report: "Under the fierce artillery fire of our army, the Qing army suffered heavy losses, and the artillery sank six enemy ships, dealing a heavy blow to the enemy. After listening to the report, Nie Shicheng rarely smiled, and the staff officer continued: "Chief of staff, our new artillery is really powerful, but unfortunately there are too few, it would be good if we could do it in more places, as long as the artillery is swung in either direction, the enemy will suffer heavy losses." ”

Nie Shicheng smiled and said: "What you think is quite beautiful, these three hundred heavy artillery pieces have been accumulated by our army for many years, and there are only three hundred guns in the whole army, and they have all been pulled here by the commander-in-chief, I have heard the commander-in-chief say that the shells of this kind of artillery are not easy to produce, and the output is not very small. ”

Zhang Yuanzheng looked at the Yangtze River from afar in Guangzhou, and thought to himself: "I hope everything goes well." "Since Zhang Yuanzheng took charge of Guangdong, he has actively developed, established many research institutes, increased investment in the field of science and technology, and has been developing hard for so many years.

Zhang Yuanzheng came to the Academy of Sciences, accompanied by several academicians of the Academy of Sciences to visit the research results of the past few years, Zhang Yuanzheng asked: "How is the research on radio going?" As early as a few years ago, the National Defense Forces studied the communication tools in addition to the radio station, but it is not a radio station, which is very bad, and it is not conducive to communication between troops, Xu Xianping, a communications expert who graduated from Guangzhou University, replied: "The research on radio has been very successful, and we are preparing to report it to start production." Zhang Yuanzheng asked again: "Is the communication effect good?" "Report to the commander-in-chief, the communication radius is fifteen kilometers, and our research team is still continuing to study, and we will definitely be able to do a better job of him." Xu Xianping replied.

Zhang Yuanzheng said to everyone: "Comrades have done a good job during this time, but for the rejuvenation of the country and the nation, we must make persistent efforts, give full play to the spirit of not being afraid of hardship and tiredness, and bravely climb the peak." ”
