Smuggling into the Taiwan Strait

Having lost its only air power, the East China Sea Fleet only dispatched another batch of bombers to blow up the entire Keelung military port, including dozens of ships docked in the military port to launch a counteroffensive, into ruins. For a time, the entire Keelung Military Port, a military port that the Japanese army spent decades building, was shrouded in thick gunsmoke...

The East China Sea Fleet won the first battle, and the telegram of the victory was also transmitted to the general headquarters of the attack on Taiwan located in Quanzhou City at the first time.

"Vice Chairman, Commander Chen of the East China Sea Fleet has sent a telegram of victory...."The combat staff officer hurriedly walked in and reported with an excited face.

"Read..." Although, as the commander-in-chief of the attack on Taiwan, Liu Hua has great trust in the combat effectiveness of the East China Sea Fleet. However, this time to win the Keelung Military Port, after all, is the first battle since the formation of the East China Sea Fleet, and Liu Hua cannot help but be nervous. After hearing the report of the combat staff officer, he said with an expectant expression.

"Commander Chen reported that after an hour-long battle, China's East China Sea Fleet successfully destroyed a military airfield in Keelung Harbor and burned more than 30 military planes. The Japanese military port of Keelung, including the entire offshore fleet, was completely destroyed under the attack of our aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft. At present, China's East China Sea Fleet has led the entire fleet to carry out a circumnavigation of the island of Taiwan in accordance with the order of the previous commander, and has used naval guns and carrier-based aircraft to deter the Japanese troops on the island...."The combat staff officer reported.

"The first battle was won, and Lao Chen did a really good job. Chief of Staff, it seems that we have made the right move again. You immediately sent a telegram back to Commander Chen to congratulate the East China Sea Fleet on its victory in the first battle. At the same time, he ordered Commander Chen to keep attacking aircraft carriers during the cruise on the island of Taiwan, destroying as much as possible the anti-landing positions deployed by the Japanese troops on various beachheads, and not being afraid of consuming ammunition..."

Liu Hua ordered with an excited face while breathing a sigh of relief. Immediately, he asked Zuo Quan, the chief of staff who was also excited next to him.

"Chief of Staff, After two successive political and military offensives by our army, how is the situation of the Japanese army on the island of Taiwan, and has it met expectations?"

"Haha, Vice Chairman, I'm just waiting for you to ask this question. The specific answer can only be described by one idiom, and that is unexpected. ”

"According to the latest information sent by the insider. In less than a week, there were no less than 50 popular riots on the entire island of Taiwan. Many of these riots were directly caused by an army of local soldiers. I believe that if the results of the East China Sea Fleet spread on the island, Japan's dominance in the Taiwan region would be dealt a devastating blow to the local people..."Zuo Quan replied excitedly.

"The people and the army rioted, that's for sure. After all, before we attacked Taiwan, for the sake of the security of the homeland, the Japanese army once again increased the exploitation of the colony. If the common people do not resist, there will be no way to live. As for the Japanese army and the Japanese 10th Front Army stationed in Taiwan, did they send troops to suppress these riots? Liu Hua continued to ask with interest.

"Suppression..." Hearing Liu Hua's question, Zuo Quan said with a sly smile on his face, as if he had heard a big joke.

"Vice chairman, you don't know that the current Tenth Front Army, which can't even take care of itself, has extra troops to suppress the ubiquitous riots."

"According to insider reports, after several riots by Taiwan's local army. The Japanese Governor's Office in Taipei began to distrust the army formed by Taiwanese natives.

Even if the total strength of the Japanese Tenth Front reached 150,000 people. However, in order to defend the entire island of Taiwan, plus the deployment of all coastlines, the Japanese army has become insufficient. "...," "Therefore, the Japanese army at this time has already been dazed by various changes of defense and expansion, and there is simply not enough troops and energy to encircle and suppress these rebellions. ”

"Expansion...."Liu Hua asked with a pensive expression.

"Yes, Vice Chairman. Since the local garrison in Taiwan was not believed by the Japanese army. The local garrisons scattered in various places have all been disarmed and turned into logistics units, and they have participated in the construction of local fortifications, especially coastal landing fortifications. Faced with such a situation, the Japanese Tenth Front had to temporarily expand its army from among the local expatriates to make up for its own lack of troops. Preliminary investigation shows that after the military expansion, the total strength of the Taiwan garrison will reach an astonishing 350,000. These include 150,000 veterans of three battle-hardened field divisions and 10 newly formed divisions with only simple training. Zuo Quan replied with a solemn face.

"Three hundred and fifty thousand Japanese troops, although there are more than half of the recruits. However, let's not forget that the Japanese army fought a defensive war, and these recruits could be used as veterans. More importantly, after decades of operation and reserves, the Japanese army has enough weapons and ammunition to be stored in Taiwan for several years. It seems that this battle is not as easy to fight as we imagined. Liu Hua pondered.

Immediately, he put his eyes on Zuo Quan, the chief of staff, and asked.

"Chief of Staff, what do you think of the current situation?"

"The Japanese army vigorously recruited new recruits and expanded its strength to 350,000 in a short time. In terms of strength alone, we no longer have any advantage. As for the entire island of Taiwan, after decades of operation, all kinds of defenses, especially coastal anti-landing fortifications, have become as strong as iron passes. “

Seeing Liu Hua nodding in agreement, Zuo Quan pointed to the combat sand table in front of him and continued to speak.

"In the face of such a strong beachhead, I believe that even our army has the advantage of both naval and air forces. However, in order to actually land, there is also a very heavy price to pay. More importantly, even if we succeed in landing, the Japanese army will deploy heavy troops on the offensive road of our army, and consume the vital strength of our landing force step by step. It must be clear that the entire Taiwan region is an island with many mountains, and as long as the Japanese army makes proper use of it, even if it is a new recruit, it will inflict a very heavy price on us.

"However, no matter how hard the so-called iron pass, if something goes wrong with his interior, the entire defense line will collapse in an instant. So, Vice Chairman, I mean, before the attacking forces launch a general offensive, immediately contact the emerging resistance forces in various parts of the island of Taiwan, arm them, and integrate them. Then, in cooperation with our main force, we took the island of Taiwan in one fell swoop. ”

"The center blooms, this method is good, you can achieve the maximum result with the least cost..."

As the so-called words woke up the dreamer, as soon as Zuo Quan's words fell, a bold strategic idea appeared in Liu Hua's mind. Pointing to the huge combat sand table in front of him, he spoke.

"Chief of Staff, from now on, there is still about a month and a half before our final general attack. It is necessary to integrate all the resistance forces on the island within this month and a half and form a fighting force. This task, among all the units of our army, only the special operations division can accomplish it..."

"You see, if we can draw the strength of at least one special operations regiment, under the transportation of warships and small boats, smuggle across the Taiwan Strait, and secretly land on the island of Taiwan as a small team, and go deep into the rear of the Japanese army. I believe that with the ability of a special operations division, a small team, within a month and a half, can pull out an infantry regiment composed of locals, and there is absolutely no problem..." Liu Hua said with a confident face. ...," a squad pulled out a regiment. Then a regiment of special combat personnel can pull out dozens of regiments. It was the main force that suddenly appeared behind the Japanese soldiers, like a sharp knife, and stabbed them in the back of the heart... At that time, the Japanese fortifications, no matter how strong they are, will not be able to stop our army from attacking from both sides..."Zuo Quan replied excitedly.

Two days have passed since the East China Sea Fleet's cruising and shelling of the island of Taiwan. The entire fleet, in accordance with the orders of the headquarters, circled the island of Taiwan more than twice. However, after the baptism of large-caliber naval guns of warships, there have already been many gaps in the coastal defense line deployed by the Japanese army around the island of Taiwan. Died with this, the elite of the defenders of more than a wing fell on the battlefield before they saw the shadow of the squadron.

With the increasing casualties of the troops, the East China Sea Fleet, which has no means of confrontation on its own, is facing it. In the face of increasing casualties among the elite of the coastal defenders. Taiwan's governor-in-chief, General Ando Giri, who was already short of troops, had to order the troops to withdraw from the fortifications and conceal them as soon as the East China Sea Fleet appeared within the range of the shelling before the squadron launched a general attack.

And this provided an excellent opportunity for Liu Hua to smuggle into the Taiwan Strait.

"Toot toot toot..." A shrill whistle sounded over the sea less than ten nautical miles from the coast. In the dark night, one by one, like frightened ducks, under the leadership of commanders at all levels, quickly rushed out of the fortifications and rushed to the air-raid shelter not far behind.

However, this time, the little devil miscalculated. Just when the large-caliber naval artillery shells landed on the position with unmistakable accuracy, raising huge fireballs. A landing craft loaded with a special operations team, under the cover of night and the sound of artillery, cleaved the waves and rushed quickly towards the beach.

"Comrades, advance covertly to the left side of the Japanese position, quickly, there are no little devils there for the time being. As long as we rush through the positions in front, it is a victory..."

Under the cover of the ship's guns, a squad of special combat personnel, like ghosts in the night, shuttled back and forth on the Japanese positions and quickly disappeared into the beach

In this way, in less than a week, the special combat members of a regiment crossed the Taiwan Strait through various means and appeared in the hinterland of the Japanese army on the island of Taiwan.
