"Why is this happening?" Yoshinori Shirakawa couldn't believe what was in front of him. In his eyes, the extremely powerful chariot wing and the Imperial Japanese Army were now all lying on the way to charge, and they didn't even touch the opponent's forward position. In the distance, the bombed-out armored vehicles and small beans were still burning, reflecting the corpses of the Japanese soldiers next to them in Shirakawa Yoshinori's telescope. At least half of these bodies were incomplete, either by being blown into several pieces by mortar guns, or by heavy machine guns swept into two sections, and if they were lucky enough to be hit by a rifle, a whole corpse would have been preserved.

Shirakawa Yoshinori's hands trembled unconsciously, he was also an old soldier, but it was the first time he had seen such a scene, and it was the corpse of his own soldiers. After a long time, the telescope slipped from his hand and hung around his neck.

From the information received from the Pioneer Brigade during the day, the opposing side did not have heavy artillery at all, and the firepower was also weak. Now and before are completely different judgments, not at all a hierarchical thing.

At this time, a big Zuo came over with a telegram and said to Shirakawa Yoshinori: "Your Excellency Commander, the Hongkou Brigade has sent a message that the number of troops surrounding Hongkou has tripled, and it seems that they are all Xue Yuejun's troops. ”

After listening to the telegram, Shirakawa Yoshinori also understood at this time that the current army on the opposite side was not the previous army, and the reinforcements of the other side had arrived, and it was very likely that it was the army in the southwest. Otherwise, how can all this be explained.

"Send a report to Hongkou, don't move for the time being, now they are mainly protecting the imperial expatriate!"

"Hey!"

At this time, Shirakawa Yoshinori was also in a dilemma: now that his own heavy artillery was gone, the entire army was left with only mortars, and the opponent's heavy artillery was still there. Now it is still in the home field of others, if the opponent's troops arrive again, let alone whether they can win, and then they don't even know whether they can bring back the troops they brought in completely. But it is impossible to admit defeat by yourself, and if you really do this, you will be torn apart by the angry masses when you return home. If you wait until daytime, the opponent's planes and heavy artillery will participate in the battle, then you will really be finished. The decision to land in Shanghai was a completely wrong decision, and now I don't want to win, but how to keep these subordinates, the empire needs them, and the empire can't afford to lose. If all these troops were to die here, then if there was any emergency, there would be no troops left in the country. I still have a chance, that is, my own navy, as long as I can keep these troops with my own navy, and when the time comes, as long as I hold a place by the sea, the navy can support me with naval guns, then I will have the opportunity to negotiate with China. And now it's too late to retreat the troops to the warships. If he really starts to order his troops to land, it is conceivable that when the time comes, the opponent's troops will definitely press up, and he will not be able to retreat.

Thinking of this, Shirakawa Yoshinori calmed down and called the herald to order all the generals to hold an emergency meeting.

At the meeting, Shirakawa Yoshinori spoke out his thoughts, and he thought that some of his subordinates would jump out against it, but to his surprise, everyone agreed to his proposal. At this time, not only did he understand the current situation, but even his subordinate generals understood that many problems could already be seen in the battle like this, and they were not fools, and those who could sit on the generals were not fools. Blindly brutal is looking for death, and the spirit of bushido is not to ask soldiers to die.

The order was quickly passed down, and more than 80,000 troops began to organize their things, leaving a part of the army to prevent the other side's counterattack, and the rest of the troops took all the supplies and evacuated. Many soldiers didn't expect that they would have to retreat not long after they first came here, and this kind of war made them all have some incomprehension. However, under the orders of the superiors, they can only obey the orders.

Just as the Japanese army was retreating, Chen Fuqin received the news. In line with the idea of not making little Japan comfortable, he directly ordered the soldiers of a regiment in the forward to prepare for the attack. There is also a Humvee battalion in the Fourth Army, all equipped with Humvee cars, and each Humvee has a heavy machine gun on it, which is absolutely terrifying for the retreating enemy troops.

When the soldiers of the Humvee battalion received the order to prepare for the sortie, they all began to prepare, refill fuel, and check ammunition.

Within ten minutes, the heavy artillery group also began to shell the Japanese defensive forces, and two battalions of infantry and one battalion of Humvee convoys also began to move towards the Japanese defensive positions. By the darkness of the night, the Humvee did not have a driving light, and the roar of the heavy artillery also drowned out the sound of the car's motor. A regiment of troops moved like ghosts.

Five minutes after the shelling, a group of troops also began to attack, with Humvees as the lead and infantry following behind to attack the Japanese. Although the KPA Humvee could not defend against the Zhonghua Z-type heavy machine guns, it was completely no problem to defend against the Japanese heavy machine guns. In the eyes of the Japanese army, the Humvee was a light armored vehicle that could not be penetrated at all.

At this time, a wing that remained on the Japanese position received the death order, and there was no fear at all. One by one, they were not afraid of death, and some Japanese soldiers would pull grenades on their bodies and rush to the People's Army attacking the position, but such an obvious goal was to send them to death. Some Japanese soldiers fell to the ground and pretended to be dead, and when the KPA attacking troops came to their side, they detonated their grenades, which caused some casualties among the KPA soldiers. So much so that later, whether dead or alive, all the Japanese troops who fell on the offensive line were shot in the head, and since then, the casualties of the People's Army have also been reduced a lot.

When the strong lights on the Humvee began to attack, they were all turned on, and many Japanese soldiers were so illuminated by the sudden appearance of the reinforcement in the dark that they could not see anything at all, and their eyes were only white, and before they could react, the bullets of heavy machine guns swept over their bodies, and their souls returned to their homeland with unwilling resentment.

By the time the troops had completely eliminated the Japanese troops blocking the road, Shirakawa Yoshinori had already gone away with a large army, and Shirakawa Yoshinori, who was on the march, had just begun to hear the sound of gunfire and his heart was tight. After less than an hour, the gunfire stopped, and now there was no sound at all. He knew that his defense force was completely finished, it was too fast, and the wing of thousands of people couldn't even stop the other party for an hour. If such an army comes with tens of thousands of people, then how can I fight them, is it possible that the imperial soldiers are already completely backward in China?

At this time, Chen Fuqin was standing on the defensive position of the Japanese army, and the soldiers at this time were cleaning up the battlefield, whether they were dead or alive, as long as they were Japanese soldiers with intact bodies, they were all shot in the head, which was the previous lesson. Before, Chen Shao told Chen Fuqin and others about the treatment of the wounded soldiers of the Japanese army, and only now did Chen Fuqin understand Chen Shao's intentions. In the battle just now, more than 30 soldiers died at the hands of the wounded Japanese soldiers and the Japanese soldiers who pretended to be dead, which was greater than the casualties during the attack. This made all the commanders and fighters feel extremely angry, and such casualties were a complete shame for the soldiers. As a result of this incident, as long as there is a war against Japan in the future, the People's Army will not have a single wounded soldier taken prisoner, and the Japanese wounded soldier will be a dead person in the eyes of the People's Army, and they will not hesitate to give those wounded soldiers a small golden bean.

At this time, a green light flashed on the walkie-talkie on the back of a signal soldier beside Chen Fuqin. After a while, the signal soldier with a headset said to Chen Fuqin: "Commander, the large force of the Japanese army has arrived at the seashore, but the other side did not board the ship, but established a defensive position on the spot, apparently wanting to fight a defensive battle with us again. ”

"Command the scouts and special squadrons to continue to monitor, and report any situation immediately." Chen Fuqin, who got the news, also thought of the Japanese army's idea and wanted to rely on the warships parked on the sea to resist stubbornly. However, now he did not plan to attack the Japanese army directly, his own soldiers had already gone through a long march and had been fighting here for several hours. Although he was confident that his soldiers were fully capable of attacking, things were not in a hurry, and now that there were a dozen or so Japanese warships on the sea, such an attack would only increase casualties. It is better to let the soldiers rest now, recuperate their spirits, and wait for all the troops of the Second Front to arrive tomorrow, and then cooperate with the fleet to destroy all the forces of the Japanese army.

————————————————

Chen Shao has been very busy these days, and there are a lot of things for him to decide to sign, and it is already more than ten o'clock in the evening, and he is still in the base office at this time, reading documents. Xie Yuxin came over and urged him to rest a few times, but he just said wait every time. Xie Yuxin also felt helpless about this, her husband was really busy sometimes, and as a wife, she just didn't want him to be too tired.

How could Chen Shao not know about Xie Yuxin's kindness, but he didn't want to leave today's things for tomorrow. Once this is done, people will slowly become lazy in the future. And it's not that there is nothing to do tomorrow, especially at this time of year, when he has won the territory of Nanjing, he has to ask about many things. Moreover, the war against Japan also requires careful review of every battle report, so that you can know what to do next.

When the last document was read, Chen Shao couldn't help but stretch his body that had been sitting for a day. I stood up and twisted my body, looked at the time, and found that it was almost eleven o'clock. The last document that had just been put down was a battle report sent by Chen Fuqin. Chen Shao also scoffed at the Japanese army's moves, his fleet had already arrived at the Zhoushan Islands, and at this time was resting on the sea far away from Zhoushan, so as to better deal with tomorrow's battle. However, in tomorrow's battle, Chen Shao instructed the fleet not to directly dispatch aircraft carriers, and there is also one battleship in one aircraft carrier battle group, and there are two Kunlunshan-class battleships in the two aircraft carrier battle groups that are now resting in Zhoushan, which can completely defeat Japan's Third Fleet. Although Japan now has two Nagato-class (Mutsu and Nagato), although the Kunlunshan-class battleships are developed from the Nagato-class, the Kunlunshan-class battleships are much stronger than the Nagato-class in various data. At this time, the South China Sea Fleet was not afraid of the Japanese fleet at all, nor was it afraid of an upright confrontation.
