Three hundred and seventy-four. Attack, attack, attack!
On March 30, 1938, the Armageddon broke out on the defense line!
In this battle, China and Japan engaged in an all-out battle in the air and on the ground. The long-lost Chinese Air Force also appeared in the sky and dealt a heavy blow to the Japanese fighters!
On the 31st, the two sides continued to engage in artillery exchanges in the air and on the ground.
And the Chinese troops in the fortifications of the defense lines of various countries have completed their operational preparations.
On the afternoon of the 31st, Xue Yue, the commander-in-chief of the former enemy, issued an order: All units must stick to their positions, and without orders from their superiors, they are not allowed to retreat a single step. Those who abandon their positions without authorization will be killed! Those who shake the hearts of the army will be killed!
Xue Yue was moving this time.
On the 31st, a division commander panicked under the bombardment of Japanese planes and fled from his position with several cronies, resulting in a lack of command for the division and almost collapsed.
After Xue Yue learned about it, he immediately led the law enforcement team to arrest the division commander and shot him on the spot!
A division commander, yes, died under the order of "killing", and as soon as the news came out, the whole army was shaken!
Now, all Chinese officers and soldiers have only two options:
Either die in the position, or die under the guns of the law enforcement team!
There will be no third option!
Let's fight, let's fight with our lives!
In Changshu, the Chinese military also faces a strong challenge:
In front of Xiao Zhichu's 26th Army, there is the 6th Division of the Japanese Army; On the front of Wang Weiyi's Tiger Guards Brigade were the 13th Division and the Ueno Detachment of the Japanese Army, which had suffered heavy losses!
Lieutenant General Tatebu Ogisu, commander of the 13th Division, who suffered great humiliation, personally appeared at the front. This time, he must not fail again!
Matsui Ishine gave him the strongest support. A large number of planes and artillery bombarded the positions of the Chinese army endlessly, more indiscriminately than any before.
And for such bombing. In fact, the Chinese officers and soldiers have long been familiar with it, and have even summed up a set of very effective methods of hiding.
Wang Weiyi was placed at the forefront of the 305th Regiment under the command of Zhang Lingfu.
This unit, which had never fought before, was now beginning to grow rapidly
From the 30th to the 31st, the Jiangjiacun position was bombed countless times, and every inch of land was turned over. The overwhelming shells seemed to tell the Chinese soldiers the idea that the 13th Division would win.
Win? You have to ask the Chinese soldiers about the weapons in their hands
April 1. After the necessary cost of bombing, the Japanese re-engaged in the infantry attack
The tactics did not change much, and the tank appeared at the forefront. And this time. Wang Weiyi also did his best to give the 305th Regiment the most direct support.
Two Vickers tanks were allocated to Zhang Lingfu!
Tank vs. tank, machine gun vs. machine gun!
The Chinese soldiers on the battlefield, staring at the blood-red eyes, threw revenge bullets and grenades at the enemy
When the 305th Regiment was fighting bloodily on the front line, Wang Weiyi also did not rest.
In the eyes of the Japanese army. This time, the Chinese military will continue to do the same old ways. Resist the attack on the front line, and then wait for the opportunity to counterattack.
But this time, Wang Weiyi decided to surprise the Japanese:
Counteroffensive in advance!
In the past, it was to defend instead of attack, but this time: attack instead of defense!
As Wang Weiyi said to Guo Mengzhen:
It doesn't matter if you tell the Japanese about your tactical ideas, tactics are dead, but people are alive!
The 12 cannons captured from the Japanese were lined up, and the gunners from Xue Yue were all in place.
Hitting the Japanese with Japanese artillery would be the most painful thing to do.
The Tiger Guard Brigade has completed its preparations. Now, just waiting for the arrival of the last order
The Ueno detachment that entered the battlefield for the first time. Undertaking the task of attacking from the flank of the Chinese, Ogisu had repeatedly explained to the detachment commander, Major General Ueno Hiromitsu, the strength of the Chinese army on the opposite side.
Ueno Hiromitsu didn't know what was wrong with the commander of the Lu Daoist Division, didn't the imperial army win in the Battle of Shanghai?
No, in the Battle of Shanghai, the Imperial Army had already dealt the heaviest blow to the China!
As for the defeat of the 13th Division before, Hiromitsu Ueno didn't take it to heart at all. Kiyoguchi Gozo was not originally a professional soldier, but a history teacher.
Let a teacher command the armies of the Empire? What do the people at the top think?
And his own Ueno detachment is different, the Ueno detachment has the most sophisticated weapons, the most heroic soldiers! Defeat the opposing Shina army in one fell swoop, and let the prestige of the Ueno detachment resound throughout China
"Brigade seat, the Japanese army has launched an all-out attack!"
Wang Weiyi nodded, raised his wrist and looked at the time: "9 o'clock, ready to start!" ”
April 1, 1938 at 8:55 a.m.
All the units of the Tiger Guard Brigade were in designated positions today, the engines of the cars had started, and the muzzles of the combat vehicles had been polished.
Offense – Offense – Offense!!
Crush the enemy's attack with the fiercest attack!
9 o'clock sharp!
"Fire! Fire!! Fire!!! ”
When the artillery commander's cry sounded, the 12 cannons let out an earth-shattering roar!
- Fire!
The cannon roared, and the vengeful cannonball rushed forward with unstoppable ferocity!
This was something that the Ueno detachment did not expect at all
The support that was being assembled was suddenly attacked by the enemy's intensive artillery fire. Shells erupted in the Japanese formation, gunsmoke, screams, fire, blood, everything mixed together!
This is — the cannon fire of revenge!
"Steady, steady!" Hiromitsu Ueno, who had been attacked suddenly, called out impatiently
Wang Weiyi took the submachine gun and waved his hand forward.
Offense – Begin!
Trucks rushed out with lightning speed. Combat vehicles, six-wheeled combat vehicles, armored vehicles, machine guns on them sprayed heavy fire, and they moved forward indomitable.
The infantry soldiers followed closely. The attack was launched in a silent way. But this silence was followed by an imminent outburst!
Bullets rained down on the enemy, the trucks rushed into such pieces, and the flames of the machine guns set up on them spewed out continuously, wiping out all the forces that tried to stop their advance!
It's too fast, it's so fast!
If it was only an infantry attack, the Ueno detachment was able to organize a simple defense. But now the enemy is actually using trucks as the main assault force!
These Japanese troops of the Ueno detachment have not yet rejoiced from the shelling, and the trucks have already rushed in!
The machine guns and submachine guns on it rang out like thunder. Grenades rained down.
- Skeleton Squad!
And the one who commands this team is Wang Weiyi!
He never knew what it was to be afraid, no matter what kind of hard battle, he would be with his soldiers!
The Japanese were stunned. Such ferocious and violent firepower. Where is the Chinese army that I heard about before?
When they first entered China, these people in the Ueno detachment heard that the soldiers of the Chinese army had poor combat quality and inferior weapons, and some units even shared a single gun with several soldiers.
However, why is the team he is facing not like this at all?
Their firepower was so ferocious that it even surpassed the Japanese army
And even stranger, those soldiers. They are not Chinese?
A huge flag was flying, over there. A skeleton was staring coldly at the Japanese
Death has arrived!
These members of the skeleton team quickly eliminated a group of Japanese troops with fierce and dense firepower, and then built a defensive line on the spot, waiting for the arrival of the large army.
Soon, tank support arrived.
Those chariots, six-wheeled chariots, and armored vehicles with machine guns quickly caused a great shock to the Japanese army.
Where did these Chinese get these weapons?
All the fire was on full force, and the terrible bullets were horribly killing every target they could see.
For the first time, the Japanese army, who were not prepared at all, encountered something that made them feel terrible:
Slaughter!
Yes, this is a massacre!
This is something that the Japanese had never thought of before
The dense firepower organized by countless machine guns and submachine guns was enough to destroy all the forces in front of them. Endless grenades, constantly exploding and blooming in the Japanese army.
Nothing can stop this momentum!
After intensive killing, large groups of infantry began to reinforce them. From the very beginning, the balance of victory in the battle was tilted in favor of the Chinese army.
This was unimaginable before
Wang Weiyi didn't give any orders at all, there was no need to give them, all the orders had already been explained before the war, and now all the officers and soldiers had to do was to strictly abide by these orders!
The skeleton team was divided into three squads, and it seemed that there were not many people in each squad, but the weapons were so good and fierce that even the Japanese army could not match them.
This is the attack of the elite division!
More than a dozen Japanese soldiers were in front, and Yannick took off the grenade on his body without a sound, and then threw it with all his might.
In the midst of a long series of explosions, Wang Weiyi and all the team members stood up, and the submachine guns in their hands erupted into the most terrifying roar.
The Japanese soldiers fell one by one, and in an instant, the ground was already covered with corpses
And that's just the beginning. With the arrival of the main force of the Tiger Guard Brigade, a devastating killing of the Ueno detachment finally began.
What is War? This is war! What is Fear? For the Japanese, it's fear now! What is Death? Every Japanese person knows it!
On April 1, 1938, the Armageddon of the National Defense Line broke out, which was enough to change history!
This day will be remembered by every Japanese in the Ueno detachment! (To be continued.) )
