Chapter 305: The Bloody Battle of Nanjing (10)
The basement of the building of the Ministry of Communications, the headquarters of the National Salvation Division.
From time to time, there was a tremor on the ground, and occasionally a few Japanese shells could fall to the north of the city, and a violent explosion came, and the whole building shook, especially the steel windows, making a sour sound.
Because of the firing range, the Japanese heavy artillery could not cover the entire city of Nanjing, and could only carry out indiscriminate artillery bombardment in the southeast, southwest, and south of Xinjiekou.
Once the shells are dispersed, they look huge, but for the city of Nanjing, which has not many people at the moment, it does not have much lethality.
This round of retaliatory shelling did not last long, and it was only about ten minutes before the Japanese shells began to thin out, and they were striking at some possible military facilities in the city!
However, the cold front had already arrived, and the Japanese army obviously knew the coordinates of these targets, and they would bomb or shell these obvious targets by relying on their air superiority.
Of course, there will be no one in these targets, so the Japanese army is just an air bomb and a waste of shells.
"The Japanese army estimated that they were about to launch a ground attack, and ordered the 39th and 40th brigades to prepare to engage the enemy according to the deployment of the previous street fighting." Leng Feng ordered.
"Yes." After saluting, the communications staff officer quickly went to contact the troops.
"I'll go to the Inspirational Club, Leng Feng, lend me a small team of yours?" Qiu Qingquan walked over in full armor, with his beloved revolver pinned to his waist.
"Division, the front line is too dangerous, you should sit in the command headquarters."
"Let me sit here and listen to the war report, then it is better to let me go directly to the battlefield. There are telephones and radios anyway. We're always in touch. Qiu Qingquan said. He really admired Leng Feng a little, and he set up this communication network as soon as possible, and now even if he doesn't get out of this headquarters, he can know the situation of the entire battlefield at any time, and the reaction time is three minutes at the fastest and ten minutes at the slower.
This efficiency is stronger than in the first defense of Nanjing, I don't know how many times.
If Leng Feng had been in command in the first Battle of Nanjing, it was estimated that it would not have been that rout.
Of course, there was no such condition at the time. It is estimated that the total number of radio stations in the entire Nanjing City is not as good as Leng Feng's current mastery.
It was an entire division of the Japanese army and the radio stations replenished by the reserves, as well as those captured by the headquarters of the Shanghai Dispatch Army, which had hundreds of radio stations.
Is there a division-level unit that has they been so arrogant?
When the teaching corps was in its heyday, it wasn't so arrogant, right?
This has directly equipped the radio station to the battalion and company level, and it has still created an established fact, and when the time comes, even if the above wants to take it back, it will not work.
"Wang Bin!"
"Here!"
"Take good care of the teacher's seat, if the teacher's seat is missing a hair, I only ask you!" Leng Feng called Wang Bin and ordered.
"Yes!" Wang Bin's heart suddenly struck. This task is not easy to complete, if this Qiu Shizuo obediently stays in the forward headquarters. It's nothing, but if he doesn't obey and has to go to the front, it will be difficult.
"Boss, can I have a request?"
"Speak!"
"Master Qiu is the chief, if he is disobedient and has to go to the front at that time, what should we do?" Wang Bin asked.
"Do you want to, I'll let Yao Heizi lead the team?" Leng Feng glanced at him.
"Understood, boss, you can trust me, promise to complete the task."
"Cong Hu and Leopard stay, I'll let them strengthen Wu Xinhua's side, and you can take the others away." Leng Feng commanded.
"That's not good, why is there no one around you?"
"I'm here in the rear, what are you worried about, except for the Japanese planes, no one can hurt me." Leng Feng said, "When the time comes, you won't be able to save me, so go quickly." Leng Feng said.
"Yes!" Wang Bin gritted his teeth, joined Qiu Qingquan's guard with the members of the Yaksha Special Operations Team at home, and headed in the direction of Zhongshan Gate.
The Yaksha battalion also allowed Leng Feng to be dismantled into an independent combat team, enriched into the front line, they cooperated with the National Salvation Division to fight, but they were relatively independent, equivalent to the firefighting team on the battlefield, where there was danger, they would run to where.
The artillery platoon and tank squadron went to Jiangbei, and the troops that Leng Feng could pull out were left with one company of one battalion, and then the student battalion replaced the pickets of the first battalion that was transferred.
The troops have all been scattered, and what Leng Feng is most worried about is that it is okay to scatter it, but how to take it back, there was no drill before, although every battalion can be contacted at any time, but once the battle starts, what will happen is unpredictable.
The Rujiang Gate is too narrow, and when the people retreat, it has already revealed its shortcomings of insufficient passage efficiency, Leng Feng suddenly thought of this, once the front line can not withstand the blow of the Japanese army and form a rout, then only with a passage to the riverside of the Rujiang Gate, it is bound to be a tragedy when the first evacuation of Nanjing was made!
The retreat must be widened, even if the walls are blown up.
"Guo Weiquan!"
"Boss, what's the matter?" Guo Weiquan walked in quickly, with the word "tired" clearly written on his face.
"Wei Quan, there is one thing, you go and do it now......
"Boss, I understand, I'll do it right away." Guo Weiquan immediately understood Leng Feng's thoughts, nodded in agreement, and hurriedly went to do it.
Whenever he wanted to be ahead and take precautions, Tang Mengxiao was careless, which led to the fact that the military order could not be conveyed when retreating, and the breakthrough and retreat turned into a rout, and tens of thousands of **** soldiers died tragically under the butcher's knife of the Japanese army.
Leng Feng didn't want to become Tang Mengxiao's second.
"Wearing it." Lao Wei picked up a steel helmet from the ground and fastened it on the head of the shepherd, "On the battlefield, what is fatal is often not bullets, but shrapnel, although this thing can't be used as bullets, but at least it can protect your head from being drilled into by that shrapnel." ”
"Master, what about you?"
"I, no need, that shrapnel has always been flying from your master." Lao Wei smiled, touched it in his arms, and his smile froze.
"What's wrong. Master? ”
"It's fine. I'll tease you. Old Wei regained his smile. Grabbing his rifle, he lay down again, aiming and shooting.
"Kidnapper, go over there, make some noise!"
The crutch nodded, his gun in hand, his waist bent, and slowly pressed against a section of the collapsed brick wall.
Bang!
There was a cloud of smoke on a green brick on the head of the kidnapper. There are Japanese soldiers shooting at the kidnappers.
Lao Wei smiled, the muzzle of the gun quickly turned, and he saw a Japanese soldier lying in the corner of the wall on the opposite side shooting, and as soon as he pulled the trigger, the bullet instantly came out of the chamber.
Burst!
The voice was very brittle, and the devil's head tilted, and he went to see the emperor.
In the same way, Lao Wei killed two more devils, and was finally noticed by the Japanese army, and several mortar shells came over. The place where Lao Wei and the others ambushed the Japanese army was instantly enveloped.
"Bah, **** little devil. If I had a quick enough reaction, if I had fired a fourth shot somewhere, I would have died today. Lao Wei spat out the mud and sand in his mouth and scolded.
"Shepherd, kidnapper, are you all alive?"
"Master......"
"Squad leader, I'm okay."
"It's good that you two aren't dead, let's hurry to the next ambush site, this place has been occupied by little devils." Lao Wei said, "Notify the artillery platoon, and also give the little devil two blows." ”
"Yes."
Knock Knock......
The Japanese artillery positions were instantly covered with artillery fire, and there were no bones left.
After regrouping, the Japanese army once again rushed to the Zhonghua Gate, this time they were much more cautious than before, advancing very slowly, and also stipulating a safe distance to ensure safety before entering the city.
But they were subjected to an unprecedented way of fighting.
Because they couldn't see where their opponents were, but the people around them kept falling, and, most hatefully, many soldiers were not killed directly, but wounded.
The wailing of soldiers undoubtedly increases fear and lowers morale.
However, the psychological quality of the Japanese soldiers who believed in bushido was much stronger, and they fought all the way down, and they looked down on the Chinese soldiers at all, especially their fanatical junior officers, who had already been brainwashed one by one, and commanded their subordinates to rush to the streets, houses, and shops of the city......
Rumble!
A Japanese soldier was carrying the corpse of his compatriot, and a thunderbolt hidden under the corpse suddenly exploded, and he went with himself to see Amaterasu.
Such explosions continued to be staged, and the Japanese army half entered the city, intending to sweep them, but as a result, they were swept away.
More than 500 people went in, and when the gunfire stopped, they didn't see a single Japanese soldier.
There is no sound!
The silence around is terrifying!
Tsumura Daisa, who commanded the attack, couldn't believe his eyes, and even the infantry of his squadron carried twelve heavy mortars and a heavy machine gun squad, and he actually disappeared in just twenty minutes.
It's as if it never existed.
It's so weird!
How did the people of China do it?
"Report casualty figures?"
"There were five casualties in a company, one was killed, and the rest were slightly injured!"
"The second company suffered seven casualties, two people were killed, one person was seriously injured, and four people were slightly injured......"
"The third company suffered 21 casualties, 6 casualties, 5 seriously injured, 10 minor injuries, and no life-threatening ......"
“……”
"Why did the three companies suffer so many casualties?"
"A platoon commander of the third company did not follow the technical essentials of street fighting and fought hard with the Japanese army, and as a result, more than half of his platoon was killed and wounded, and he himself was killed." The staff officer, who counted the casualties, reported.
"Sort this out, this is a lesson, don't always feel that you are right in battle, self-righteousness, causing such huge casualties, he is dead a hundred, what about those soldiers who should not have been sacrificed? Inform the whole brigade and take it as a warning! Wu Xinhua announced heavily.
"Understood."
In general, the results of the new 40 Brigade were brilliant, and the first round of adopting the new tactics of street fighting caused the Japanese army to suffer a big loss, and its own casualties were less than half of the Japanese army.
In addition, a number of Japanese weapons were also captured, which strengthened themselves and established the confidence of officers and soldiers to confront the Japanese army below.
Compared with the new 40th Brigade, the 39th Brigade, which seems to be stronger, suffered a lot of losses in the first street fighting contact of the Japanese 3rd Division.
This is also something that the Japanese army is good at, how can it be undefeated?
Fortunately, some people used the new tactics, and the sweetness tasted at this time completely changed the thinking of the whole brigade, including Ju Youlin, the brigade commander, and began to change the combat mode according to the street fighting tactics taught by Leng Feng, so as to contain the offensive of the Japanese 3rd Division.
