Section 3 Fierce Soldiers in Shanghai III

At present, more than 40 warships of the Japanese Navy have gathered on the periphery of Shanghai, and the naval guns directly support the Shanghai defenders, and the casualties of our army are mainly caused by the artillery fire of Japanese warships. The whole book is $-$

The B17 is a strategic bomber, and it is okay to bomb dull land targets, but the power of dealing with sea activity targets is greatly reduced, so the key now is to dive bombers and torpedo attack planes, considering the long-term nature of the war, even if there are no torpedo attack planes, all should dive bombers, and cut off the Japanese army's sea supply line from the air, so that the Shanghai war can be victorious.

Leaving aside Chiang Kai-shek's business with the Americans, Zhang Zhizhong commanded the Ninth Army to continue its offensive against Shanghai on the 21st, focusing on the Huishan Wharf in the 87th region.

In this area, the Japanese army was attached to two marine brigades, reinforced with four 150mm mortars, two rapid-fire guns, and two 92 infantry guns.

Feng Shengfa, commander of the 87th Division, succeeded Sun Yuanliang as commander of the 87th Division, and participated in the 128th Song-Shanghai War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. He knew that the Japanese army's artillery support would definitely come from foreign naval ships, and once our army's artillery preparations were over, it was necessary to immediately attack and approach the Japanese army to prevent the counterattack of the Japanese naval guns. Therefore, when arranging the attack, he arranged for Shen Zao's 259 Brigade to take the lead.

"Commander Shen, move quickly, don't be afraid of casualties, we have suffered such losses when we were 128. As soon as the artillery fire stopped, you rushed after the tank. Feng Shengfa repeatedly admonished, but Shen Zao silently stared at the map on the table, and the streets of Shanghai were vividly visible under the dim oil lamp. It is only 4 kilometers from the front to Huishan Wharf, but these 4 kilometers have to be filled with human lives.

"This won't work, division commander," Shen Zao interrupted Feng Shengfa's words: "The Japanese army already knows that we have heavy artillery, so tomorrow they will definitely observe the position of our heavy artillery, so the preparation time for shelling must not be too long, and the preparation time for artillery fire must be shortened." The main thing is still to rely on our own firepower. I'm going to do this, open the walls of the buildings in this area, and when the artillery is ready, blow up the last two walls, and then kill them, so that the tanks can charge after us. ”

"But this is just a road from the front of the Japanese army, and our artillery fire will blow you to minced meat." Feng Shengfa couldn't help but exclaim after seeing a line drawn by his finger.

"No, it won't." Shen Zao said: "It's not a road, it's 30 meters, and we won't open the last two walls." But we have two extra floors of protection on our heads. So be it, commander. ”

Feng Shengfa looked at Shen Zao and nodded heavily, patting the dust on his shoulders with both hands: "Brother, take care." ”

The next day, it was just dawn. The shelling of the squadron began, and heavy artillery fire fell directly on the Japanese officers' club. Hundreds of shells of various types fell from the breach, and the artillery fire was fierce for five minutes. Then the heavy artillery stopped, and the divisional artillery continued to fire. Another five minutes later, a red flare lifted into the air.

Two explosions rang out on the faΓ§ade of the building opposite the officers' club. After the smoke of gunfire. Two large holes are exposed. Two figures sprang out of it. Straight to the officers' club. Dozens of figures rushed out one after another. The motor roars on the front street. Several tanks appeared on the streets.

The Japanese soldiers, who had just run out of their hiding places, shouted. But I didn't wait for the sound to die down. Gunshots rang out in the courtyard. The 259 Brigade commandos have already stormed the yard. On the first floor, the living soldiers rushed out of the courtyard screaming. Collide head-on with the commando.

The Marines are all selected soldiers. Fight more than the average army soldier. Pu Yi took a picture. Three or four commandos were stabbed down. The commandos from behind rushed up again without changing their faces.

The commandos far outnumbered the Japanese troops in the club. The two sides immediately started a fight upstairs and downstairs. Tanks rushed through the streets. The soldiers who followed behind also stormed the club. The Chinese soldiers had an even greater numerical advantage. Gradually, the Japanese army was forced to the second floor of the club. There was also a fight on the second floor. The first floor is the lobby dialect. The second floor is the place to really have fun. Japanese-style tatami mats. Partition room. Knocked to shreds. The side facing the street owes a few large holes that have been blown out. Retreating to the second floor, the Japanese soldiers saw that there was no way out. A circle was quickly formed. Bloody bayonets are all pointed outward. But China has caught up with it, but it doesn't care about this at all. A flurry of gunfire. Then he turned around and rushed to the third floor.

The officers' club fought fiercely at the same time. Side by side, the Omatsu warehouse is also fighting fiercely. Another commando detachment of the 259 Brigade also rushed in. They are better arranged. After storming the warehouse. Three Czech and eight submachine guns opened the way ahead. Behind them were twelve bombardiers. Push all the way through. The ferocious firepower of the Japanese army prevented them from raising their heads. All the way to the Japanese army.

The frontier has been successfully broken. It made Feng Shengfa very happy. He immediately ordered Shen Zao to continue to assault Huishan Yard. But then a shrill whistling sound came. This was followed by a violent explosion.

"Damn, it's fast enough." Feng Shengfa scolded fiercely, such an explosion could only be a naval artillery shell, and it was a caliber of more than 200mm on a battleship, Feng Shengfa began to worry about Shen Zao, who was assaulting at Huishan Wharf.

Shen Zao was indeed in danger, heavy artillery fire blocked his line of attack, and the Japanese troops on the second line retreated during the fierce fighting at the club and the warehouse, in order to make room for the naval guns.

The firepower of the naval guns was so strong that after seven or eight cannons, the club collapsed, and all the soldiers hiding inside were buried alive; The warehouse next to it was better than it, and it took a few more shots before it collapsed. The artillery fire blocked the infantry, and the tanks attacked the Japanese positions alone, only to be easily blown up by the Japanese troops, and all the tank men were killed.

"Damn, that's not going to work." Feng Shengfa saw this scene in the telescope and smashed his fist on the wall anxiously, he turned around and grabbed the phone: "Answer Commander Zhang!" Hurry up! ”

"Commander Zhang, the enemy's naval artillery is too fierce for us to hit at all," Feng Shengfa shouted.

"Feng Shengfa, don't complain! Didn't you reinforce two tank companies? Zhang Zhizhong's tone was very stern: "I told you Feng Shengfa, you can't take the military law of Huishan Wharf ruthlessly!" ”

"Tanks, the Japanese blocked all the streets. The tank could not be used at all, and now a company has been lost. "Feng Shengfa did not hide the losses of the tank company.

"You fart!" The eldest son, who has always been elegant, couldn't help but scold: "Why can't you do it?" How did the Japanese perform at 128 o'clock? Let me tell you Feng Shengfa, the chairman of the committee can wait for our good news in Nanjing, if you want to save your strength, let me go as soon as possible! ”

"I want to have that idea, I didn't give birth to a son!" After Feng Shengfa finished speaking, he angrily smashed the microphone on the phone.

"Let's fight, it's all over." Chief of Staff Xia Sheng sighed. There is nothing that can be done about this situation. It can only be relied on by the bravery of the soldiers.

"No, this unit is what we have trained after years of hard work, and we can't just run it out." Feng Shengfa said and quickly picked up the phone.

"Commander Zhang, Mr. Zhang, my opinion is to stop the offensive for the time being, let the air force deal with the Japanese fleet first, they are hiding at sea, we can't fight. The Air Force can always fight. Feng Shengfa was in a hurry, and finally forced out a good idea.

Zhang Zhizhong didn't know about the threat of Japanese naval guns, but he couldn't do anything about it. Not only the 87th Division, but also the 88th, 36th, and 98th Divisions, each of which encountered the same problems, and each attack was met with heavy Japanese naval artillery bombardment. The farther they farthered, the more intense the Japanese artillery fire became. In order to prevent the Japanese artillery counterattack, his heavy artillery brigade could only fight for a few minutes at a time. After the battle, it was necessary to quickly transfer positions, and in this way, two 150mm howitzers had already been lost.

Feng Shengfa's opinion reminded him. He immediately telegraphed Zhou Zhirou to the Air Force, hoping that he would send planes to attack the Japanese fleet and drive them away from the sea.

Zhou Zhirou did not refuse, the air force was victorious, it was when morale was high, he calculated, the Japanese army forward base of the plane had been shot down nearly 80 planes, of course, those 49 were exaggerated, but that was to improve the morale of the people, the chairman of the committee personally changed.

Zhou Zhirou put down the phone and discussed with the deputy commander-in-chief Mao Bangchu and the destroyer commander Wang Shuming, Wang Shuming also believed that the Japanese Air Force had suffered great losses, and the planes on the current forward airfields and aircraft carriers were not enough to compete with the Chinese Air Force, and we still had radar, only half of the destroyers needed to escort the escort, and the other half was on standby on the ground, ready to reinforce at any time, as for the bombers could dispatch all the heavy bombers, in addition to the twenty-four B17, there were five Savoya S72 heavy bombers, six Heinkel heavy bombers, Six Martin heavy bombers, so sure that the Japanese fleet could be dealt a blow.

Wang Shuming's suggestion made Zhou Zhirou very satisfied, and he immediately decided to have Gao Zhihang command forty P40s and twenty Hawker IIIs to escort the escort, and Li Guidan commanded all BF109s and the remaining twenty-six P40s on the ground to standby.

In the afternoon, the Chinese Air Force dispatched, the group of planes assembled near Changshu, and then flew towards Shanghai, a large number of planes swept over the sky of Shanghai, and the citizens of Shanghai climbed on the roof again, ready to watch the performance of the Chinese Air Force, but they did not expect the plane to fly straight overseas.

"Hit the Japanese warship!"

I don't know who shouted, and the citizens who came to their senses began to flock to the dock. Those who run in a car, pedal on three wheels, all means of transportation are used, and the rickshaw driver is the happiest, not to mention that the price has tripled, and you can see it yourself when you get to the place.

A window on the fourth floor of a gray building next to the highway was closed, and two men stood respectfully in front of a table behind a middle-aged man with gold-rimmed glasses.

"Listen to what is closed, it will be good for you." The golden wire glasses looked at the two of them coldly, and the cold sweat on their foreheads flowed: "One of you is in Nanjing, the other is in Shanghai, I don't know what you are doing?" The ground intelligence of the Chinese Air Force is actually zero, and because of your negligence, the warriors of the empire have paid with their lives. ”

The two men didn't dare to answer at all, leaning forward slightly, still tense and straight, and didn't dare to wipe the sweat that flowed down their cheeks, not because of the hot weather, but because of fear, the gold wire glasses don't look elegant in appearance, but he is definitely a ruthless person, and he will never tolerate subordinates who can't complete the task.

"I don't care what method you use, within a week, I want to know the detailed information of the Chinese Air Force, how did they win this battle?" There was a chill in the words of the golden wire glasses: "Kojima-kun, please!" ”

After the golden glasses finished speaking, he bowed deeply to Kojima.

"Hayi, I will definitely live up to Your Excellency's trust, if I can't complete the task, I will break my stomach and apologize to His Majesty the Emperor." Kojima also bowed deeply after speaking.

The explosion sound from Hongkou suddenly weakened, the gold-wire glasses pushed open the window, looked in the direction of Hongkou, and sighed long, the sudden rise of the Chinese Air Force surprised Japan the world, when China bought 100 P40s from the United States, it did not attract the attention of the Japanese Air Force, and now they are paying the price for their arrogance.

After successive defeats, the strength of the Japanese air force around Shanghai was greatly damaged, and the golden wire glasses thought that the squadron did not take the opportunity to attack the Japanese airfield on the Ma'an Islands 150 miles away, which was a big mistake, but he thought that the Chinese air force generals had made a temporary omission, or that they did not know that there was a Japanese airfield there, but when would this secret or omission be revealed? No one knew that with China's current air superiority in Shanghai, that airfield would be doomed to be destroyed once it was discovered.

The defeat of the Japanese Air Force had already alarmed the Emperor, but the guys in the Air Force could not tell how they were defeated, and every time they engaged, they were in a hurry after being attacked by the Chinese Air Force, which meant that they were at a disadvantage as soon as the war began.

The Air Force could not answer this question, so the military department handed over the question to their secret service and asked them to find out the reason as soon as possible, because it was impossible for the P40 to achieve such results.

The problem was handed over to him, but he handed the problem to Kojima, he knew that if Kojima could not solve it, then no one in the Nanjing area of Shanghai could solve it at present, because Kojima had a very important spy in his hand, he could participate in the Supreme National Defense Conference chaired by Chiang Kai-shek, and the one who commanded this spy was the pride of the imperial intelligence system, the flower of the empire - Nanzao Yunzi.

The cannon sound in Hongkou became dense again, but it was not the cannon sound of the Japanese army, but the 75 mountain artillery and the 37 battle anti-aircraft artillery of the squadron.

At the Huishan Wharf that he couldn't see, Shen Zao commanded the newly strengthened 522nd Regiment to rush to the iron gate of the wharf from the front, and the regiment commander Yi Anhua braved the dense rain of bullets fired from the opposite wharf building to rush under the iron gate, and entered the shooting corner, followed by his three guards and five soldiers of the regimental guard company.

Yi Anhua slammed the iron door with his shoulder, the iron door did not move, obviously the iron gate has been thickened, and the back may be full of sandbags, which will hold the iron door to death.

"Commander, what should I do?" Guardian asked aloud.
