Chapter 320: The Second Battle of Nanjing Ends
"Sir, today is the fifth day of the first lunar month, is the first spring of the twenty-four solar terms, this ancient saying clouds, yang and enlightenment, everything is spring, after today, everything in heaven and earth will recover, look at Mr. with a smile on his face, is there any happy event to tell in the next?"
"Mr. Bray saw me through at a glance, yes, there is indeed a happy event today, and it is a great happy event." Lao Jiang couldn't help but grin.
"Yes, listen to me." Chen Bulei bowed slightly, humble and polite.
"The National Salvation Division annihilated more than 2,000 Japanese soldiers in Caotou Mountain in Nanjing, and killed one captain of the Japanese army." Lao Jiang said excitedly.
"That's a great event, congratulations, sir." Chen Bulei was slightly surprised, although he is a pen, but under the influence of his ears and eyes, he still has some understanding of military affairs.
It is not difficult to say that it is not difficult to defeat 2,000 Japanese troops, at least there have been such battles before, but if you completely annihilate a Japanese army, it will not be an easy task.
Not to mention the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army itself, can the Japanese watch their troops being annihilated?
Reinforcements must be sent, so it is almost impossible to annihilate a whole Japanese army, unless there is no rescue or some accident.
"Tongxi, Tongxi, but Leng Feng's blow hurt the Japanese army, and the Japanese adjusted their strategic deployment." Lao Jiang said, "The 13th Division returned to Nanjing, and the pressure of the National Salvation Division in Jiangbei increased sharply, but the pressure on Li Delin's side was much less. ”
"Sir, as far as the overall situation is concerned, it is still developing in our favor. That's a good thing. Chen Bulei thought left and right for a while. Said slowly.
"Mr. Brey, you have a point. In the secret telegram sent to me by Leng Feng, it has been decided to abandon Nanjing, withdraw north to the Yangtze River, and concentrate on fighting a battle in Jiangbei now. ”
"Concentrate on fighting a battle in Jiangbei?" Chen Bulei was stunned for a moment, not understanding the meaning of old Jiang Huazhong.
"Yes, this battle was fought in exchange for time, the Japanese army is now turning back against them, if this shackle is not broken, then how can the hundreds of thousands of people in Nanjing retreat west?" Old Jiang Dao.
"Makes sense. So what is the gentleman going to do? ”
Lao Jiang was silent, if this battle is fought, it will be beneficial to increase his prestige, after all, Leng Feng, the National Salvation Division, is also a descendant of the Central Army, but this battle still needs the cooperation of another person.
That is Li Delin in the Fifth War Zone, if he is allowed to give half of this credit, he is really unwilling.
Lao Jiang thought about it in his heart, how could he take all the credit in his hands, and he had nothing to do with the Gui family in the Fifth War Zone, which was really difficult.
Otherwise, share a little credit with him. What about the employers who will fight in Xuzhou?
"Guard, go and ask Director Lin to come over!" Lao Jiang thought about it. Call a guard and give an order.
I'm leaving, to be honest, I'm really a little reluctant, and it's a good place where I've been fighting for two months, although it's a ruin now, but it's also my own city.
Just giving it to the Japanese like this, there is still something unpleasant in my heart.
The personnel of the command organization were also evacuated in batches, leaving behind the necessary staff, and the busy scene was not there, and Leng Feng gathered everyone in one place.
Corded telephones have also been removed and all communication is made through radio stations.
The special task force supported the new 39 Brigade in a fierce battle with the Japanese army at Taipingmen for a morning, and the special service group itself had the combat experience of fighting in the city and street fighting under its command, and also had a tenacious fighting spirit.
From the raid on the remnants of the 16th Division of the Japanese Army in Tangshan that night to the battle of Caotoushan last night, the special task force has only fought two battles in earnest.
If Leng Feng hadn't ordered the secret service group to withdraw and recuperate, I'm afraid they would have really been able to recover Zhongshan Gate.
The morale of the 3rd Division of the Japanese Army was low, and the fighting was poor, the soldiers had no fighting spirit, and the command of the grassroots officers was not effective, and the Japanese army suffered successive defeats in street battles.
The 9th Division was not much better, but the 9th Division fought very hard, and fought with the new 40th Brigade to an even match, the two sides west of Xinjiekou, dogs and teeth are staggered, you have me, I have you, it is completely chaotic, but the Japanese army has never had a chance to break out of this circle.
This indiscriminate fight is not really a casual fight, under the geographical advantage, plus the technical bonus, the new 40th Brigade will fight with the Japanese army up and down, you can't help me, and I can't drive you out.
In the end, I made a rough estimate of the casualties, and everyone was about the same.
This result really can't be taken, and the two chief officers, Liang Dong and Wu Xinhua, both feel blushing.
"The Japanese can attack in turns, but what about us, the troops are much smaller than them, we can only attack in rotation, the troops are very tired, and if we continue to fight, it is estimated that we will not last long." Wu Xinhua said.
"Yes, Leng Tou'er decided to withdraw tonight, which is a wise decision." Liang Dong Road.
"I can't say it to the following yet, I'm afraid that everyone will be lax, and if the Japanese take advantage of the loophole, it will be troublesome." Wu Xinhua specially advised.
"I know, only commanders above the battalion level know about this news, and others don't know it for the time being." Liang Dong nodded.
"I heard that the troops behind the palace at night are a special service group?"
"Yes, the new 39th Brigade will be withdrawn first, then us, and finally the special service regiment and the divisional headquarters organs." Liang Dong Road.
"Got it."
In the afternoon, the Japanese army reorganized its forces to attack, and at one time countless shells smashed into the area controlled by the National Salvation Division, and the Japanese heavy artillery shells even hit the Rujiang Gate and the docks in Xiaguan.
Many boats and bamboo rafts along the river were blown up and some people were damaged, but this did not affect the evacuation operation at night, because the ships that were really used for evacuation were all in Jiangbei.
Where the Japanese army had almost no other way than aircraft bombing, but they were reluctant to give up their precious aerial bombs, who was more valuable than a bamboo raft?
There are many rivers in Jiangbei, and boats and bamboo rafts can be scattered and hidden at will, even if a few are blown up, it doesn't matter.
The Japanese army used all their strength to eat milk. After the heavy artillery smashed through. It's dumb fire. There are no shells, and the ammunition transferred from Shanghai is still on the way, and it will arrive at least tomorrow morning.
The original three-day battle load was used up in less than two days, and if it hadn't stopped for a break, it was estimated that it would have been even faster.
Without shells, those heavy artillery pieces are just decorations, and it is better to grab them in three or eight steps. Rifles and bayonets are the worst than burning sticks.
In the end, even the artillery entered the city with guns in the streets, which shows how hard the Japanese fought this battle.
Now I can only rely on the fact that there are more people and bully fewer people, and now I am desperately attacking, and I can still say that this army was driven out of Nanjing City by myself, and it will become a big joke if I wait until people take the initiative to leave.
This Fujita Susumu and Ryosuke Yoshika are both good-looking, so they both made the same choice. Offensive!
"Fujita doesn't know how to stop for a while, I've just taken a bite. Here we go again......"
"Luzao, don't complain, I'm much worse than you, look ......" Chief of Staff Lei Zheng sent the rice bowl to Ju Youlin, good guy, the white rice was pitch black and gritty.
"Old Lei, what are you?"
"There was a shot just now, and all the dust on the beams of the house came down, I didn't pay attention to it, I went in all the time, and I could only grit my teeth and eat." Lei Zheng smiled bitterly.
"No, how can you eat this, orderly!"
"It's okay, Brigade, it's just one layer above, I'll pour him out, and I can eat it below." Lei Zheng said, "Just this food is much stronger than in the past." ”
Ju Youlin sighed a little, the teaching corps is living a good life, but the food of the officers and soldiers below can only be said to be full, what about other troops in the country, especially the local army, there are good and bad, the worst Sichuan army, the Northwest Army, that is really bitter, half a month is not a little oil and water, this is no oil and water, how can you have the strength to train, which strength to fight?
If the National Salvation Division hadn't occupied Nanjing and robbed the Japanese grain depot, it is estimated that they would not have a full bite to eat now, let alone fight with the little devils.
In the past few days, Nanjing has been able to withstand it, and the logistics have at least one-third of the credit.
There is no logistics, where is the food, where is the weapons and ammunition, you are injured, and the doctor will treat you? Especially the reward for killing the enemy, that's real money.
Without these, the officers and soldiers are willing to follow you, and are they willing to fight hard with little Japan?
That can't!
Kill a Japanese soldier for five fiat coins, squad leader for ten, squad leader for fifty, squadron deputy for one hundred, and squadron leader for two hundred...... The Japanese army was 3,000 and 10,000 major generals......
There is a bonus for killing an enemy, a pension for the death of a Japanese soldier, and a reward for killing a Japanese soldier before can be given to the family.
These are all people who have passed through the ghost gate, with these guarantees, what are they afraid of?
This is also a great magic weapon for Leng Feng to quickly condense the National Salvation Division into combat effectiveness, and if we want to quickly form combat effectiveness, only by fully mobilizing the subjective initiative of officers and men, as long as they want to fight and desperately ponder and fight, can there be hope for victory.
I want to think about how to unify my thoughts first, remember the bittersweet or something, it's useless now, I don't have that time, I can only use this simplest and rude way.
Money plus national righteousness, honor and interests, if you don't dare to do it, is that a man?
This is a double-edged sword, Leng Feng also knows it, but if he uses it well, the effect is immediate, money, what he has is, he has snatched a lot from the Japanese, yen, fiat currency, and US dollars It is definitely a huge fortune.
Wu Xiaoyun kept this money personally, and even he didn't know the specific amount.
What's more, Lao Jiang gave a lot of bonuses, even if he sent them all, it would be enough, why not do this kind of thing of using other people's money to buy people's hearts for himself?
"Division commander, our intelligence department intercepted a telegram from the headquarters of the China Army to the Nanjing China Army."
"What are you talking about?"
"The Command of the China Army ordered the China Army in Nanjing, the Capital Anti-Japanese War and the National Salvation Division to hold out for another three to five days, and the Fifth Theater is formulating a plan to encircle the 13th Division."
"Encircling the 13th Division?" Fujita Jin was taken aback, if the 13th Division was surrounded, it would be a big joke.
"Can you determine the accuracy of the message?"
"Yes, we have a set of communication codes for the Chinese army, and this is the first telegram that has been successfully deciphered." The communications staff officer reported confidently.
"Yaxi, immediately report this important report to Your Excellency the Sixth General of the Sixth Army of Hata!"
"Hay!"
(To be continued.) )
PS: I recommend East China's "Domination of South Asia", a good book!
Standing on the battlefield of Afghanistan in 81, the bearded Muhammad had a serious face and carried the RPG on his shoulders.
The crushing of the T-62, the bombing of the hinds, the roar of the Schle will not bring the Afghan partisans to their knees! Drive out the Soviets and liberate Afghanistan! Defeat India's Ah San and dominate South Asia!
Accidentally, Mhammad became the real ruler of Afghanistan, accidentally, Mhammad was pushed to the position of president of Pakistan by the coup soldiers, and by accident, Mhammad divided India into several pieces, leaving only a small piece of land for Ahsan. Even the aircraft carrier formations of the Americans were swept back to the United States by the roaring waves of the Indian Ocean, which is the back garden of Mhammad!
