Section 8 Nanjing, Nanjing VI

The third part of the Speculators of the Republic of China, the first chapter of the Bloody War of Resistance, the eighth section of the Battle of Nanjing, Nanjing. The whole Nanjing

Cultural revolution. Did you notice. The 6th Division, the main force of the Japanese army, did not appear anywhere on the northern and southern fronts. It was the 9th Division that attacked Jiang. Fighting at the bridgehead was the 13th Division. On the Wuxi side, fighting against the 24th Group Army were the 11th and 16th Divisions. And what about the 6th Division and the 101st Division? The 101st Division can be said to maintain the security of the rear. And what about the 6th Division? This is the standing division of the Japanese army. Main divisions. But this unit disappeared from the battlefield. Isn't that strange? ”

Jiang Baili's words caused a sense of tension in the room. Yes. The 6th Division disappeared from the battlefield. Its message is nowhere to be found. This is really abnormal.

Zhuang Jihua frowned and looked at the picture. Jiang Baili drew a half-arc on Taihu Lake. The finger stopped in the Taihu Lake. Zhuang Jihua understands. Jiang Li couldn't make up his mind. It is not known where the landing point of the Japanese army will land.

From Wuxi to Yixing. The long shoreline of the lake can be landed everywhere. This is not the coastline. There is also a problem with the coastline that is not suitable for landing. Rico is full of plains. As soon as you get ashore, you can spread your feet and run around.

"Although Yixing has the seventy-fourth army. It's just that Liangzhen's losses are already great. Can hold Yixing. Blocking the attack of the 23rd Brigade has already done its best. "Ji has not called for help. The 74th Army fought from Shanghai to eastern Zhejiang. Hit Yixing again. Fight hard along the way. I haven't had it until I have a good rest and replenishment. But Jishi didn't say a word. Gritted his teeth and took the 74th Army to work hard in Yixing: "It seems that the deployment must be adjusted." ”

Jiang Baili nodded. Zhuang Hua looked at the positions of the various armies and the dynamic map of the Japanese army marked on the map, and his face gradually fell silent. After thinking for a moment, he said: Order Zhao Hanjie to lead the second brigade. To the south line of Xingping Wangjiaxing first-line activities. The main purpose of the operation was to strike at the logistics of the Japanese army. ”

Zhuang Jihua's first order was to fight back. This made Fu Chang and Zhou Lan a little surprised. But it didn't surprise Jiang Baili, Zhuang Hua put Song Yunfei's special combat team, and the two brigades were still in Taihu Lake. The eye is to stare at the rear of the Japanese army on the two fronts of the north and south.

The special combat team is the top of Zhuang Jihua's heart. Before the expedition, two brigades were formed. The total number of people is more than 400. Not equipped with any heavy artillery, heavy machine guns. Fifty people per detachment. Forty men were armed with Garand semi-automatic rifles imported from the United States. The 10 men were equipped with the Mauser 98 Strike 1 imported from Germany, and were also equipped with two bazookas and a newly developed wireless telegraph; The fairy tale range of this walkie-talkie is ten kilometers; Each soldier is equipped with a dagger. This unit is specially trained. Everyone can run 3,000 kilometers in 20 minutes with a weight of 20 kilograms. Shooting: It can be said that everyone is a top shooter. Accurate shooting can be carried out in a wide range of conditions; Lurk. You can lie motionless for three days; Everyone can drive - everyone can shoot. kind of artillery. mortars, combat anti-artillery and even howitzers; Not to mention swimming or something. It is easier to climb the three-meter-high courtyard wall with bare hands.

It must be mentioned that the choice of Gad rifle. Zhuang Jihua's favor for semi-automatic rifles forced Yu Dawei not to increase his strength to study semi-automatic rifles. But he has never been able to break through some technical difficulties, so he searched all over the world for ready-made semi-action rifles for reference; At present, the most mature semi-automatic rifle in the world is the Garand rifle at the beginning of this year. Just buy the technology and produce it yourself. The Garand plant is almost complete. It's just that the capacity of eight rounds of ammunition is not enough to satisfy Zhuang Jihua.

"Guo Xun went out of the martial arts and marched to the direction of Taihu Lake to be on guard; Ordered Xu Yuanquan's Second Army to march south to Wu. Tell Xu Yuanquan that Yang Sen's Japanese army might land at Taihu Lake. It is necessary to pay special attention to the area of the snow weir of Mt. Ma. Tell Janssen to leave at least one brigade to watch the back road. ”

"After Guo Xun left. Who is responsible for the garrison of the district of Jurong Tangshan Chunhua? Fu Chang asked.

Once Guo Xun is transferred. The mid-line defense will leave a large gap. Once the Japanese broke through the Xicheng defensive line. Wu Jin can't stand it. It is likely that the army will rush all the way into Nanjing.

"Order the 66th Army to take over the defense of Jurong Tangshan, and order the Tax Police Corps to take over the defense of Chunhua."

Zhuang Jihua ordered a series of orders. Baili didn't say a word, just nodded slightly. This is already the best adjustment Zhuang Jihua can make.

Yang Sen's arrival after Zhuang Jihua's briefing. Li Chaoxin and the regiment directly under the group army were immediately drawn out from it to deploy defense in Lotang

"Ge Laozi is so dangerous. Matsui, the little devil, also prepared a trick for Lao Tzu. Janssen's eyes were red. He hadn't slept for two days in a row. After the good news of the southern front. The Japanese offensive was fierce. The 24th Army was also fighting fiercely on all fronts.

So far. The achievements of the 24th Army were enough to make Janssen proud. There were several bloody battles with the Japanese army in Luodian. forcing the Japanese to go on the defensive; Subsequently, the whole army retreated in Jiading, Taicang. So to speak. The battle of Songhu did not turn into a total rout. The 24th Group Army made great contributions.

The 24th Army, although there were some losses. But the strength is still there. The Wuxi direction was the attack of two elite divisions of the Japanese army. For several days the defense line of the army group did not waver in the slightest. The 11th and 16th Divisions did not take a single step forward from Wuxi.

"It's fine. Commander Zhuang has a discerning eye. Our adjustments were timely. - Chief Liu wiped a cold sweat. They completely ignored the possibility of the Japanese landing from Taihu Lake. There were no troops placed on the shores of Lake Taihu at all.

Janssen adjusted the deployment of the same. Guo Xun also led his troops to Wujin overnight. When he arrived in Wujin, he took over the defense of Wujin from Xu Yuanquan. Xu Yuanquan's Second Army had all marched to the shore of Taihu Lake. Only the army headquarters in Wujin City was ready to go.

"Dude. Wujin will be handed over to you. Xu Quan's originally plump cheeks have sunken deeply. He was a veteran of the Xinhai Uprising. It was only a month to lead his troops to participate in the Battle of Songhu. As with other troops. The Second Army suffered heavy losses. After retreating from Songhu, many soldiers escaped. Now the 2nd Army nominally had two divisions. In fact, there is only one division of strength. But Zhuang Jihua asked him to go to the north shore of Taihu Lake to defend. This made Xu Yuanquan's heart full of bitterness. Guo Xun Shou Wujin is actually his backup. also help him defend the back road.

"Don't worry. Captain Xu. If the Japanese army really landed at Taihu Lake. I'm not going to sit idly by. Guo Xun understood what Xu Yuanquan meant by staying and waiting for him. His division now numbered more than fifteen thousand. Well-equipped, even when the Second Legion is full. It's not as good as him.

"There is this sentence of the old brother. I was relieved. Xu Yuanquan looked at the busy soldiers around Guo Xun with envy. These soldiers have one-color guns. There are also several 82 mortars and anti-aircraft guns in the corner of the garden.

"Captain Xu. These are all made in Chongqing. Guo Xun saw Xu Yuanquan's gaze spinning on those cannons, so he explained tactfully: "At present, the output of the factory is not high. It is impossible to meet the whole army, and we are close to the water, and we are close to the first month; However, Chongqing is expanding its factory. I believe it will be full soon

The request of the troops. ”

The Sichuan army was so well equipped that it had already aroused the attention of other troops. Zhuang Jihua warned the generals not to show off. Guo Xun and other generals of the Sichuan army also knew the mystery. Therefore, whenever the friendly generals asked, they patiently explained.

After mixing in the world for half his life, Xu Yuanquan certainly knows that this is just a comforting word. His troops are not the Central Army system. It was detached from the Jin army. Farther it can be said that it is the Zhang Zongchang system of the Zhilu coalition army. If you want to change equipment, I don't know if it's the year of the monkey, and it's Ma Yue's turn to do so.

Guo Xun said that it was made in Chongqing. Chongqing weapons were named, and since then, Chongqing has caused the squadron to be the name of the weapon for a long time, and it has become a nightmare for the Japanese army.

The conversation between the two was not finished. A fast horse rushed into the city. On the crowded roads of the city, the soldiers on their horses showed no intention of slowing down. It caused a burst of angry scolding from the soldiers on both sides.

"Slippery." The knight on the horse did not wait for the horse to stand firmly, and rolled heavily from the horse and fell heavily on it. Then struggle to get up. The two soldiers hurriedly ran over and helped him to Xu Yuanquan and Guo Xun. Xu Yuanquan looked like a staff officer of the 614th Regiment stationed in Caoqiao.

"Commander Japanese troops landed in Zhou Tie... Lost.|... The regimental commander ordered me to report the news. ”

Xu Yuanquan and Guo Xun were shocked when they heard this, and then another officer ran out of the door.

"Division commander. The command is in an emergency. ”

Guo Xun grabbed the telegram with his hand. It reads: "The Japanese army has assembled a large number of ships on the eastern shore of Taihu Lake. It is possible to make landfall in the section of Wujinxing in Wuxi in the near future. The exact landing point is unknown. All ministries should be vigilant. Report the enemy situation immediately. ”

The moon is dark and the wind is slow. The shadow of the sail is longing. A huge fleet of boats led by motorboats crossed the Taihu Lake. It was unexpected by the squadron. Matsui Ishone did not choose to land on Takejin. Instead, he chose the northeast of Yixing, which had a weak defense. Zhou Tieyangxi's district landing.

The two towns of Zhou Tieyangxi are just right: in the defense area of the 74th Army. But the main forces of the 74th Army fought against the 23rd Brigade in Yixing. The two towns have only one severely weakened battalion. The battalion command post is located in Yangxi Town. This is because Yangxi is closer to the south. the party that was most likely to come into contact with the Japanese army; Zhou Tie only had one company.

I rested on the shore of Taihu Lake for many days and did not find anything. Inevitably, there will be some slackness. Monitoring of the lake has become a bit sloppy. Two Japanese brigades quietly went ashore. Then launched an attack on Zhou Tiezhen. The defenders were immediately in disarray. The company commander led his troops to fight desperately. At the same time, four soldiers were ordered to rush to Caoqiao and Yangxi in two ways.

Yangxi actually didn't need him to rush anymore. The soldier who reported the message was still on the way. Yangxi was also attacked. Both towns were lost in half an hour. The Japanese army easily gained a foothold on the west shore of Taihu Lake. The head was then enlarged. By dawn. Gu Shoufu led the headquarters of the Sixth Division to enter Zhou Tie. The murderous order was to attack the forward Itai Brigade immediately. Another order was given to the 23rd Brigade of the 18th Division. Ordered it to immediately attack Yixing. At the same time, the follow-up troops were ordered to go ashore as soon as possible.

This landing was not an accidental trip by Matsui Root. It's planned. As early as when the Tenth Army was sent to land in the northern part of Hangzhou Bay. The General Staff of the Japanese Army drew up a plan to break through China's two defense lines, the Wufu Line and the Xicheng Line. The main content of this is to fall on the defense line and be blocked. The Sixth Division was sent to land on the west bank of Taihu Lake. Then go north to attack Wujin. Wipe out the ** squadron on the Xicheng line.

To achieve this. The Tenth Army also carried large steamboats and speedboats when it was on land in Hangzhou Bay. When the battle on the Wufu Line was deadlocked. The Japanese army secretly collected thousands of fishing boats on the eastern shore of Taihu Lake. With these ships. At one time, most of the more than 20,000 people of the Sixth Division could be sent across Taihu Lake.

The situation reported by Zhuang Jihua did not come from Song Yunfei but from the military commander. After Song Yunfei received Zhuang Jihua's order. Seven or eight boats were immediately dispatched to search for it on Taihu Lake. But the vast Taihu Lake. How difficult it is to find out what the Japanese army is. Coupled with such military operations, it was impossible for the Japanese army not to keep secrets. What's more, all the ships that the Japanese fleet encountered were sunk.

However, the situation of the Japanese army's build-up on the east bank was discovered by the intelligence officers of the Suzhou Station of the Military Command. Report to the military commander of the southern Jiangsu station. The stationmaster of Sunan Station attaches great importance to this information. It took a two-day delay to send it to Shanghai Station. Fortunately, Wang Xiaoshan didn't get any information from Daze's mouth. So he came to exchange with the military commander. When the stationmaster heard this, he immediately remembered this information. So this love was sent to Nanjing. But it was too late. And there is no clear point of landing.

Xu Yuanquan and Guo Xunli walked quickly into the headquarters that was still being arranged. The picture that Chief of Staff Lin Hua took from the staff officer was spread on the table. Xu Yuanquan and Guo Xun tilted their heads at the same time.

"Sixth Division."

"Gu Shoufu."

"Going north is for us. If you go west, you will rush to Yu Jishi," Xu Yuanquan said hesitantly.

"Coming at us. The little devil has a great appetite. I want to eat all the main forces on our Xicheng line. Guo Xun quickly made his own judgment. It seemed that he didn't hear the slightest cowardice in Xu Yuanquan's tone at all. He looked up at Xu Yuanquan: "Captain Xu." It seems that the troops do not need to go to the shore of Taihu Lake. If I were Tani Toshio. I'll go along the Cao Bridge - Qianhuang. Direct Attack..."

Guo Xun said as he stomped on the soil under his feet. Xu Yuanquan stayed for a while. Nodding. This is obvious.

"Legion Commander. Wujin was defended by our army. I suggest that your troops delay the Japanese attack at Caoqiao and Qianhuang. Cover the advance of our army in the armed forces. ”

Xu Yuanquan hasn't answered yet. The director of the newspaper rushed in. Zhuang Jihua's telegram also arrived.

"The 6th Division of the Japanese Army landed at Zhou Tieyangxi. The garrison command judged. The purpose of the Japanese army was to attack Wujin. Outflank the main force of my tin line. In order to defeat the Japanese attempt. Garrison Command commanded. The 48th Division of the 2nd Army Corps had to hold back the Japanese troops at Caoqiao and Qianhuang for two days; The 41st Division was in charge of the Pan family's southern residence. The main force is placed in the south house Xicheng line, and I turn in. The Li Chaoxin Brigade of the Twentieth Army will reinforce the 48th Division. ”

Xu Yuanquan let out a sigh of relief. Guo Xun shook his head slightly and whispered in his ear, "Legion Commander." Commander Zhuang is not like the others. There is no such thing as a prescription. As long as you play well. It's easy to say anything in the future. Just look at our Sichuan Army. ”

Guo Xun's words made Xu Yuanquan a little surprised. However, Zhuang Jihua's transfer made him feel a little. At least he understood the difficulties of the Second Legion. Let the Twentieth Army come to reinforce it. There was no intention of only wanting to consume the Second Legion.

"Don't worry, brother. We'll have to top it for two days. Cover your march in the martial arts. ”

Obviously, Xu Yuanquan also understood Xun's purpose.
