Chapter 10: The Bloody Battle of Luodian
Zhang Zhizhong was very glad that although it seemed to be a very humiliating thing to lead the troops under Liu Yuan, a junior, who knew the actual situation.
Liu Yuan has a master-apprentice relationship with himself, and Liu Yuan only gives himself advice in commanding the troops, even if he is wrong, Liu Yuan does not use the authority of a commander to suppress himself, which makes him very relieved in commanding the troops.
And as long as he needs the equipment, Liu Yuan did not say no, and the continuous attack on Shanghai was fruitless, Zhang Zhizhong knew that Liu Yuan was under absolutely great pressure, but Liu Yuan rarely asked for anything from himself, this is the measure that a handsome man needs, Chiang Kai-shek does not have it, Chen Cheng does not have it, and Li Zongren does not.
Although the Battle of Songhu was fought very hard, Zhang Zhizhong found that Liu Yuan was definitely the most suitable general for the Nationalist Government, which was stronger than Chiang Kai-shek.
Zhang Zhizhong didn't know what Liu Yuan's plans were, but he knew that he had difficulties on the front line, so Liu Yuan gave himself two divisions without saying a word, otherwise his situation would have become very bad, but with these two divisions, the situation was reversed.
The Hunan army is poor, everyone knows this, but the Hunan army is very ambitious, especially Li Jue said before leaving, as long as the Hunan army does not die, Shanghai will not be lost.
Zhang Zhizhong knew that as a commander, his bearing was still a little bit worse, and if he really reused Li Jue, he should give him his heavy artillery troops, but Zhang Zhizhong felt that it was better to use it to seize control of Shanghai than to give it to him.
Zhang Zhizhong's right hand kept tapping on the table, and he ordered, "The 98th Division and the 2nd Brigade, all the command rights will be handed over to the 87th Division, and the 88th Division will continue to attack Huishan Wharf, and the 57th Division will support Luodian and Baoshan." ”
This time Zhang Zhizhong was ruthless, he decided to take down the participating troops of the Japanese army in Shanghai no matter what, cut off one of their arms, and then concentrate his forces to meet the Japanese army that had logged in. This is the so-called concentrating on doing great things.
Matsui Shigen finally couldn't help but log in, Liu Yuan got the news of the Ministry of Intelligence for the first time, and the young staff officers exclaimed, shouting lucky, if it wasn't for the theater command gritting his teeth and deducting two divisions, Zhang Zhizhong didn't know what kind of predicament Lu Dao would face at this time.
"Can you tell if it's the main force of the Japanese? The little devil's suspicious tactics have been used. Liu Yuan is worried that this is still the little devil's suspicious strategy, you must know that the sea power has always been in the hands of the devil, and he has no way at all, if the enemy is a suspicious strategy, and he can't see it, and then log in to Jinshanwei, then he will be extremely troublesome.
"I don't feel like it, the intelligence says that there are only more than 1,000 people, but the intelligence of the Jinwu says that they have reinforced 80,000 people, and I feel that this is not the main force of the Japanese army." Zuo Quan analyzed.
Smoking smoking, his throat hurt, Liu Yuan took the cigarette in his mouth, and finally gave up, but walked to the huge sand table, stroked the pocket version of the country, and slowly thought about how he would play this game of chess if he was Matsui Shigen.
"The little devils are not small, they don't dare to set sail, they dare to log in to play with us. Isn't this looking for death? Li Erniu said depressedly.
"What did you say?" Liu Yuan turned around and pulled Li Erniu and asked.
"I said that the little devil is not small, and he dares to forcibly land without air supremacy." Li Erniu asked puzzled.
"That's right! That's right! Liu Yuan fell into contemplation again, but Zuo Quan squinted his eyes and quietly looked at Li Erniu, he felt that Li Erniu couldn't say this, could it be that people who followed Liu Yuan would make quiet progress, but for what, he felt that his progress was very small.
"Order Gao Zhihang to send a bomber formation to test whether it is the main force of the Japanese army, if so, just send them to the sea to feed the fish. Matsui wants to play with Lao Tzu, and Lao Tzu will play with you. Liu Yuan said scoldingly.
The battle of Songhu concerns the hearts of too many people, every night, every headquarters, few people are willing to close their eyes and rest, countless troops are quietly mobilized at night, and one by one troops rush to Luodian, Baoshan, and the teaching corps has been sent to the battlefield, this time it was guessed by Li Jue, an, and Luodian will be an important point in this war.
Luodian Town is located in the northwest of Baoshan District, east of Luoxi Road, west of Hutai Road, north of Shitai Road, south of Yueluo Road. Although this town is not big, but it is the gateway to the northwest of the entire battlefield, if Luodian is conquered, then the Japanese can coerce the flank of the Songhu area, but if Luodian is not lost, then it will be a huge nightmare for the Japanese to write.
Because the area controlled by Japan was too small, Zhang Zhizhong's heavy artillery brigade would let their soldiers go to Amaterasu en masse.
Before dawn, Huang Wei, who hadn't slept all night, sat in the barracks, asked the guards to help him get an oil lamp, and a copy of Dream of Red Mansions in his hand, looking at it with relish.
The officers and soldiers, who were still worried, were relieved to see that the commander was there, so confident as before.
But how bitter Huang Wei is in his heart, only he knows that he has a division in his hand now, and whether this division can hold Luodian is really a question.
"Boom! Rumble! "The enemy's vanguard began to conduct test firing, and then there was a massive artillery bombardment.
Huang Wei had to hide in the anti-artillery hole and quietly wait for the enemy's attack.
"Listen to my orders, after the enemy's shells are over, all the machine gunners will return to their positions, and the snipers will look for firing positions, as for the artillery, you don't need to leave me shells, how many can be fired, the commander of the theater of operations, is my classmate of the Whampoa Military Academy." Huang Wei said to the officers around him.
"Commander, don't worry, the brothers are not people who are afraid of death, besides, Commander Liu Yuan is a brother to you, he won't watch the brothers be in danger, the little devils dare to come, we will smash their teeth."
As soon as the enemy's shelling was over, he heard the opposite soldier shouting for Sassi to give it and began to charge with the team.
"Boom! Rumble! "The first to launch was the engineer brigade, who laid a large number of mines on the way of the Japanese army. Then there was the endless artillery bombardment, and Huang Wei had an artillery regiment under him, although they were all 75mm field guns, but they were enough to return fire.
"Commander, the headquarters is in an emergency." The staff officer held the telegram in his hand and walked to Huang Wei, who was observing the enemy situation at the lookout hole, and turned around and asked, What did the commander tell me.
"See for yourself." The staff officer said embarrassedly.
"Read!" Huang Wei said impatiently.
"Brother Huang Weiwu, brother heard that some people say that you are a nerd, but I still suggest that General Zhang Zhizhong arrange you in Luodian, I hope you can really be a nerd this time, work hard, play hard, don't have a little extra thoughts, just remember one word, do it." As long as you or, Lao Tzu guarantees that you become a general, if you lose Luodian, let's kill ourselves together. Liu Yuan. ”
Huang Weijian raised his eyebrows and muttered, be a nerd once, a nerd, is this nerd really that easy to do?
"Boom! Rumble! Luodian's position began to shake violently, Huang Wei knew that the enemy's naval artillery began to exert its power again, and he knew that at this time, even if the air force went, it would be useless, so he said, "Let them in, let's compare with the little devils." ”
The little devils saw Huang Weishi retreat, and rushed into Luodian like crazy, but they didn't expect that they had just rushed in a few steps from the gap before they were strafed by machine guns, and this ambush alone caused more than 1,000 Japanese casualties, and just before the Japanese army could react, Huang Wei's troops retreated again.
