Chapter 50: High-Level Shock (Ask for Recommendation Votes)
The north wind was howling, Qiao Anbang kicked the armored car door open and jumped out of the car, and under his feet was the headquarters of the original Kunisaki detachment, but this time it had been flattened by him with an armored combat vehicle.
As soon as Qiao Anbang got out of the car, the military commanders of the battalions and companies ran over in a hurry.
"Tuanza, Tuanza." Wang Dingsheng, the commander of the first battalion, Cao Er, the commander of the second battalion, Li Yifeng, the commander of the third battalion, and Li Jupeng, the deputy commander of the third battalion, all stepped forward to salute.
"Hmm." Qiao Anbang saw Li Jupeng, the deputy commander of the third battalion, with a thick gauze wrapped around his left arm, and immediately asked, "What's the matter, the lottery is hanging?"
"Thank you Tuanzuo for your concern, I'm fine, I was shot by a wounded soldier just now!" Li Jupeng replied with a smile.
"In the future, don't leave a living mouth for the little devils on the battlefield, all the wounded soldiers will be executed, and being merciful to the enemy is cruel to yourself!" Qiao Anbang commanded coldly.
"Yes!" Li Jupeng snapped up and stood upright, echoing loudly.
"Tuanza, we defeated the Kunisaki detachment in this battle, why don't we take advantage of the victory to pursue and expand the results?" Li Yifeng, the commander of the third battalion, was obviously puzzled by Qiao Anbang's order to stop the pursuit.
Qiao Anbang looked up at the sky, and then explained: "It is still at least two hours before dark, if we continue to pursue, of course, we can expand the results of the battle, but the devil's air force will definitely pose a serious threat to us, although our armored forces have a certain air defense capability, but it is not enough to completely deal with the devil's air force." In fact, there is another point that Qiao Anbang did not say, that is, what he lacks most now is talent, and the armored soldiers are now one less dead, so he is unwilling to risk pursuing the Kunisaki detachment during the day.
"Oh." Li Yifeng and the others nodded lightly when they heard this: "When can we have our own air force." ”
"Don't worry, sooner or later we will have our own air force." Qiao Anbang comforted thoughtfully.
"Danza, what are we going to do next?" Wang Dingsheng, the commander of the first battalion, saw that Qiao Anbang seemed to have something on his mind and asked.
"Order the companies to quickly clean up the battlefield and then withdraw into the woods down the mountain." Qiao Anbang ordered: "Follow me to reinforce Wuhu after dark!" ”
"Reinforcements to Wuhu?" Wang Dingsheng, Li Yifeng and the others looked at each other in confusion.
"Oh, I received a telegram for help from the defenders of our army in Wuhu earlier, saying that the 18th Division of the army is currently storming Wuhu! After dark, the devil's plane will not come out again, so we have to take advantage of the night to quickly reinforce Wuhu! Of course, Qiao Anbang did not receive a telegram from the defenders of Wuhu asking for help, but according to his understanding of history, at the same time that the Guoqi detachment was attacking Dangtu, the 18th Division of the Chinese Army was also storming Wuhu.
After speaking, Qiao Anbang waved his hand and said, "Hurry up and clean up the battlefield, the devil plane should arrive in a while." ”
"Yes!" Everyone stood up and saluted in unison.
In this battle, the security regiment killed more than 4,000 soldiers, and because the armored units and powerful artillery units cleared the obstacles and dangers for the infantry, the security regiment itself suffered few casualties.
After this battle, the elite 11th Infantry Wing of the Kunisaki Detachment was completely annihilated, the 41st Wing suffered heavy losses, and the 3rd Mountain Artillery Wing of the Reading Artillery was completely annihilated, and the entire Kunisaki Detachment can be said to have been disabled.
The battalions and companies of the security regiment hurriedly cleaned up the battlefield and had just withdrawn into the woods at the foot of Ma'anshan Mountain, when about a dozen Japanese fighters and bombers roared from the distant sky.
After searching the entire battlefield for a long time, they didn't find any traces of the squadron, and finally had no choice but to return home, but they were all in sight of their own corpses everywhere.
In the woods, Qiao Anbang smoked a cigarette and said to Yali next to him: "Immediately defeat our troops and prepare a telegram in detail to report to the Nanjing Garrison Headquarters!" ”
"Yes." Yali answered softly.
…………
Nanjing Garrison Headquarters.
General Tang has been overwhelmed by the battle reports that have drifted like snow from the front line, and to tell the truth, General Tang has not been in charge of troops for ten years since he was defeated by the national political axe controlled by Li Zongren.
Moreover, he himself is a mediocre person in terms of strategic vision and tactical level, and it may not be bad to play politics, but if he really wants to command a large corps to fight, he is not much better than Chairman Chiang.
It is no exaggeration to say that Chairman Chiang's choice of Tang Shengzhi as the commander of the Nanjing City Defense Garrison was really blind to his dozen or so elite central divisions.
Just when Tang Shengzhi was at a loss and restless, Deputy Commander Liu Xing walked in with a telegram in his hand: "Brother Meng Xiao, a great victory." ”
"Tiefu, now the front line is in an emergency, where is the great victory?" Tang Shengzhi was puzzled.
"When Tu Dajie!" Liu Xing said with an excited face: "The Pheasant and Ji Security Regiment defeated the Guoqi detachment of the Yue Army in the Ma'anshan area in Dangtu, killed more than 4,000 enemies, and achieved a great victory in Dangtu!" ”
"What do you say? Defeat the Kunisaki detachment? Tang Shengzhi was dumbfounded and said, "How is the strength of the Kunisaki detachment?" ”
"The Kunisaki detachment is based on the 9th Brigade of the Fifth Division of the Fifth Division, which is a fierce general of the army, plus a Mt. Reading Artillery Wing, with a strength of nearly 8,000 people, as you knew before." Liu Xing said puzzled.
"I know." Tang Shengzhi said with a shocked face: "How many people can there be in the Pheasant and Ji Security Group?" ”
"A local armed regiment that killed 2,000 people." Liu Xing replied without thinking.
"Are you saying that the Pheasant and the Jiji Security Regiment defeated the Kunisaki detachment head-on with a rabble of 2,000 and inflicted heavy damage on it in one fell swoop?" Tang Shengzhi was a little suspicious that the security regiment lied about its exploits.
"Commander, the personnel of the Shanghai Branch of the Military Command Bureau have sent a secret message!" A communications staff officer hurriedly walked in with a telegram, and stood up and said: "The secret telegram said that the Guoqi detachment of the army encountered the elite main force of our army in Dangtu and suffered heavy losses. ”
Tang Shengzhi's face was full of shock when he heard this, he turned his head to look at Liu Xing, nodded and said, "It's amazing, just a local militia group can defeat an elite detachment of Yukou!" ”
"Yes, it seems that what they said earlier about annihilating a cavalry brigade of the Yue Army was not a lie!" Liu Xing also nodded in agreement.
"Hmm!" Tang Shengzhi pondered for a while and nodded: "Immediately report the news of the victory of the Pheasant and the Ji Security Regiment to the commission, and also inform the divisions on the front line of this good news, so as to boost the morale of the army, and hope that the front-line brothers will fight bravely to kill the enemy, swear to defend Nanjing City, and protect the Prime Minister's mausoleum from the Japanese invaders!" ”
"Yes!" Liu Xing immediately responded, and then turned around.

Suzhou, the former general headquarters of the Central China Dispatch Army in Nanjing.
Lieutenant General Hatohiko Asakanomiya, who was in charge of commanding the Battle of Nanjing, was wiping down his imperial sword given to him by Emperor Hirohito, when Major General Mamoru Iizawa, the former chief of staff of the Shanghai Dispatch Army, strode in with a heavy face.
The sharp-eyed Hatohiko of Asakanomiya saw the telegram in Mamoru Iizawa's right hand at a glance, drew his knife and sheathed it and asked coldly, "Iizawa-kun, what happened?" ”
"Your Royal Highness, I just received the battle report from the Kunisaki detachment." Iizawa Mamoru bowed his head respectfully and said: "The Kunisaki detachment encountered the main force of the Shina Army in the area of Dangtu Maanshan, and after a hard battle, the Kunisaki detachment suffered heavy losses and was defeated by the Shina Army. It has now retreated to Lishui. ”
"Kunisaki detachment? If Iizawa-kun is not mistaken, this unit should be part of the Fifth Division of Itako Seisoro. Hatohiko of Asaka Palace still asked calmly after hearing this.
"Yes." Iizawa Mamoru didn't know what to ask, but still bowed his head and replied.
"Banheng Zhengjun swept dozens of divisions and hundreds of thousands of troops in North China with only half a division, why did Kunisaki Deng, a fool, suffer a defeat in Dangtu?" Hatohiko Asakanomiya thought of the clear code telegram he had received earlier, and said angrily.
"Your Highness, there must be an elite unit of the Zhina Army in Dangtu, according to the report of the Kunisaki detachment, the Zhina army they encountered not only has a heavy artillery group but also a chariot armored group, and the combat power is very strong, and it is suspected that it may be an elite unit secretly formed by Jiang Zhengaxe!" Mamoru Iizawa hurriedly replied with a shudder.
"Yaga! China's elite troops? Is it stronger than the hundreds of thousands of troops in the North China battlefield? Hatohiko roared like a volcanic eruption.
"Your Highness is angry!" Iizawa Mamoru saw that Hatohiko Asakamiya was angry, and hurriedly bowed his head and persuaded with a respectful expression.
"What is the number of this unit? Who is the commander? Hatohiko of Asaka Palace held back his anger and asked with a sigh of relief.
"According to the clear code telegram they sent earlier, they should be the Zhina Pheasant and the Ji Security Regiment, the commander is unknown." Mamoru Iizawa quickly replied.
"Baga Yalu, immediately instruct the intelligence department to immediately find out the number of this branch of the army and the details of the commander!" Hatohiko of Asaka Palace obviously didn't believe that this would be a local security team, and immediately roared: "Hurry up!" ”
"Hay!" Iizawa Mamoru suddenly lowered his head, and then turned around and walked away quickly.

Lushan, line camp.
After Chairman Chiang handed over the matter of Nanjing's urban defense to Tang Shengzhi, he left Beijing by special plane and came to Lushan, which was only a transit point for him, and after a short rest, Chairman Chiang was going to Wuhan.
At this moment, although the national political axe has declared Chongqing as the accompanying capital, the administrative and military and political centers of the national political axe are in Wuhan at this time, and it has not yet been transferred to Yucheng.
Chairman Jiang sat in the study with frowns, as if he was preoccupied, at this time he was worried about the defense of Nanjing, after all, Nanjing was the national capital of China at this time, once lost, the impact would be huge, as the leader of the national political axe, he could not worry.
Recently, however, all the news from the front line was bad news, and Chairman Chiang, who had originally expected Tang Shengzhi to hold on to Nanjing for three months to half a year, was also a little disheartened at the moment, and regretted a little that he had not heeded the advice of Chen Cheng, Bai Chongxi, and others to abandon Nanjing.
In the final analysis, there are more than a dozen divisions of his Jiang family under the city of Nanjing, more than 100,000 elite troops, once the army forms a three-sided encirclement of Nanjing, then more than a dozen of his divisions will be finished.
Bai Chongxi, deputy chief of the general staff, Li Zongren, and others had made predictions about what might happen in the defense of Nanjing, and from the current point of view, the decline of the front line had already appeared, and it was very likely that the prediction of Bai Li and others would come true.
This is something that Chairman Chiang really does not want to see, and at this moment he hopes that Tang Shengzhi can fight a few beautiful battles on the front line to stabilize the situation.
Just when Chairman Chiang was full of ambition and restless, hurried footsteps sounded outside the door, and Chairman Chiang turned around when he heard this, only to see his chief of guard, Wang Shihe, already walking in in a hurry.
Seeing Wang Shihe's happy face, Chairman Jiang asked, "Shihe, what's the matter?" ”
"Commission, call from Nanjing, a local security regiment of our army encountered the Guoqi detachment of the army in the area of Ma'anshan in Dangtu, and defeated the enemy head-on after a fierce battle, killing more than 4,000 enemies and capturing countless people!" Wang Shihe replied with an excited expression.
