Volume 1: Battle of Songhu Chapter 103 Ambush

Xu Nineteen already had an idea in his heart, and said at the moment: "Don't be presumptuous, although our Nineteenth Brigade does not have many troops, and there are only more than eight hundred people in the full battle, as long as our Nineteenth Brigade can appear in a key position at a critical moment, it can also affect the entire battle situation." ”

Gao Shenxing's expression moved slightly, and he said, "The captain is ...... Counterattack on Qingpu? ”

"It's not just Qingpu." Xu Shijiu said in a deep voice, "We also want to counterattack Songjiang!" ”

"What, counterattack Matsue?" Gu Wei and One-Eyed Dragon looked at each other, "Captain, now it's Little Japan attacking, and the task of our Nineteenth Brigade is to defend and hold White Crane Harbor for at least three days." ”

Xu Shijiu didn't explain too much, and directly ordered: "Blow the assembly horn!" ”

Sheshan Town, Qingpu, Headquarters of the 6th Division of the Japanese Army.

Gu Shoufu was sitting cross-legged on the marching bed boiling sake, while humming softly Jun Zhidai, looking very leisurely, in fact, this old devil is also really relaxed, the 6th Division has been going smoothly since Jinshanwei landed, whether it is the capture of Songjiang or the capture of Qingpu County, basically there is no decent resistance.

In addition, when he was in North China, the 6th Division did not encounter a decent opponent, which inevitably gave Gu Shoufu a delusion, believing that the combat effectiveness of the national army was not worth mentioning at all, and the reason why the Shanghai Dispatch Army failed to completely occupy Shanghai for nearly three months was entirely because the commander Matsui Shigen was too stupid and had improper command.

Japanese officers have always had no one in their eyes, and Tani Toshio is no exception.

When the chief of staff of the 6th Division, Shimono Kazuho, walked into Gu Shoufu's command tent, Gu Shoufu was already three points drunk, looking at Gu Shoufu's slightly red face, Shimono Ichihuo Dazuo frowned unconsciously, although alcohol is not prohibited in the army, few senior generals will be drunk during the battle, and the division commander is a little out of control.

Holding back the unhappiness in his heart, Shimono Kazuho walked up to Gu Shoufu.

"Division commander, after nightfall, there have been several groups of troops near the station, although the number is not large, and they are easily dispersed by the guards, but I am still a little worried, once there is a large force of rout or these small groups of rout troops are gathered, it will still be a big threat to the division and regiment headquarters with empty troops......"

Before Shimono Yihuo finished speaking, he was interrupted by Gu Shoufu.

"Shimono-san, you are too worried, since this division set foot on the battlefield in China, from North China to East China, there have been more than a dozen battles, have you ever encountered a decent detachment army? Garbage, the Chinese army is all garbage. Gu Shoufu smiled and waved his hand, "Don't pay attention to these defeated soldiers at all, they won't do anything but flee for their lives." ”

Shimono Yihuo frowned and said, "Division commander, for the safety of the division headquarters, did you order the 36th Infantry Brigade to transfer one or two infantry brigades back?" ”

"No need." Gu Shoufu waved his hand again, disapprovingly, "The division headquarters is very safe, there is no need to transfer troops back from the 36th Infantry Brigade, tell Ushijima-san (commander of the 36th Infantry Brigade) and let him let go of the attack on Pudong and Nanshi, and the glory of capturing the first metropolis in the Far East cannot belong only to the Shanghai Dispatch Army." ”

On the Songjia Highway from Songjiang to Jiading, more than 700 Japanese soldiers of the Nakamura Brigade were marching north along the flat road in a four-way column, and since all the vehicles of the 6th Division were transferred to the Sakai Detachment, the commander of the Nakamura Brigade, Hideo Nakamura, could only march on foot like ordinary soldiers.

Before being transferred to the Songhu battlefield, the Nakamura Brigade had already shown its face on the North China battlefield, but it was only limited to showing its face, because although Song Zheyuan's 29th Army had more than 30,000 officers and soldiers in four divisions, it basically did not organize decent resistance, and the Nakamura Brigade did not fight any battles at all, but the common people slaughtered a lot.

After landing from Jinshanwei, the Nakamura Brigade also burned, killed, and plundered on a large scale, and was extremely ferocious.

In terms of ability, Hideo Nakamura is similar to the vast majority of Japanese officers in this era, and he has also attended a non-commissioned officer school, and has a fairly high military quality, but at the same time he is also very proud, and it can even be said that he has no one in his eyes, because he did not encounter much resistance in Jinshanwei, Matsue and Qingpu, Nakamura Hideo's vigilance is very poor.

This is also the root of human inferiority, and it has nothing to do with military literacy or anything.

To put it bluntly, Nakamura Hideo did not believe that there would be a Chinese army that would dare to take the initiative to attack the Japanese army, in his cognition, as long as the Japanese army appeared, the Chinese army would inevitably flee from the wind, the North China battlefield was like this, and the Songhu battlefield was the same, so although he only had a large number of troops, he was full of confidence in capturing Baihegang and Anting.

A few steel helmets poked out of the grass a few hundred meters away, and it was Xu Shijiu and them.

Looking at the Japanese army that was advancing with open fire and did not even send out the top soldiers, Xu Shijiu couldn't help but show a hint of self-deprecation on his face, it seemed that he was too careful, he knew that little Japan was so arrogant, he should have made the ambush position closer to the road, so that he could rush onto the road with just one assault.

The one-eyed dragon tore at the grass stalk and said in a cruel voice, "Little Japan is too crazy, isn't it?" ”

"That's because they don't know how powerful they are." Gao Shenxing said in a low voice, "When they taste the power, do you think they dare to be as arrogant as they are now?" ”

Xu Jiujiu didn't say much nonsense: "Prepare to fight." ”

Gao Shenxing took out his flare gun and aimed the muzzle at the sky, but his eyes looked at Xu Shijiu, as long as Xu Shijiu made a gesture, he would decisively pull the trigger.

Sheshan Town, Qingpu, Headquarters of the 6th Division of the Japanese Army.

Shimono Ichihuo was patrolling the station with two guards, although Gu Shoufu didn't think so, but Shimono Ichiho always felt that something was wrong, and he always felt that something was going to happen.

The strength of the 6th Division is too scattered, the 36th Infantry Brigade is advancing to Nanshi, the Sakai Detachment is advancing to Kunshan, and even the Nakamura Brigade, which is responsible for the security of the division and regiment headquarters, has been sent to attack Baihegang.

At this time, if a Chinese army makes a detour, or if the retreating Chinese rout assembles again, the consequences will be unimaginable, if the division commander is killed by the Chinese army, or simply captured alive, then the matter will be a big problem, and he can only cut his stomach to thank the emperor.

Just as I was worried, a sudden gunfire rang out in front of me.

Shimono Yihuo was agitated, and immediately pulled out the Wang Ba box and rushed up, and the two guards who followed behind him also quickly removed the 38 cover from their shoulders and held it in their hands, and pulled the bolt to load the bullet while rushing forward, but when the three rushed to the direction where the gunshots came, they found that the three Japanese soldiers were hahadaxiao.

Cao Chang, who grabbed the leader, asked, only to know that there were more than a dozen national army routs passing nearby just now, and they were beaten away, looking at the national army rout lying motionless on the ground in front of him, obviously dead, Shimono Yihuo was also a little dazed, is it because he has not rested in the past few days, so he will be suspicious?

##########

Hideo Nakamura was a little tired from walking, and just stopped to catch his breath, when he suddenly heard a scream under the night sky in front of him, and then a red signal flare had risen into the night sky...... What's the situation?

Nakamura's confusion did not last long, almost at the moment of disillusionment of the signal flare, dazzling tracer lights suddenly bloomed on both sides of the road, which was suffocatingly beautiful, followed by fierce and continuous gunfire, like a violent storm that swept over violently, and annihilated the unsuspecting Japanese army at once.

Nakamura Hideo reacted quickly, and he fell to the ground sideways, but the orderly behind him reacted half a beat slowly, and let the two tongues of fire be swept down on the spot.

But after a while, Hideo Nakamura stopped angry and turned panicked.

Due to the hasty change and the unfavorable terrain, the situation faced by the Nakamura Brigade was very bad, under the first wave of fire of the Chinese army, the Nakamura Brigade lost nearly a quarter of its strength, and then the Chinese army launched a charge, and in the darkness countless Chinese soldiers rushed onto the road with bayonets and started a white-knuckle battle with the Japanese army.

When the two armies met in short arms, Nakamura Hideo was completely panicked, although he was arrogant, but he also knew that the Chinese army's white-knuckle combat was very good, when fighting in North China, the 29th Army's broadsword team made the Japanese army suffer a lot, especially when the night engagement, the 29th Army's large swords were played, and it was difficult for the Japanese soldiers to get close.

Sheshan Town, Qingpu, Headquarters of the 6th Division of the Japanese Army.

Shimono Yihuo took off his tweed coat and just lay down, there was a sudden commotion outside the tent, and he turned over and sat up and put on his coat and rushed out of the tent, outside the tent, I saw a few guards standing there pointing at the northern night sky, Shimono Ichihuo looked in the direction they pointed, and found that the northern sky was faintly red.

If you listen closely, you can faintly hear the explosion.

Shimono Ichihuo frowned for a moment, calculating the time, the Nakamura Brigade shouldn't have arrived at Hakuzuru Port so soon, right? And even if they rushed to Baihe Port, didn't they say that they would attack after dawn? Why is this a fight? Nakamura is an idiot, doesn't he know that if there is no aviation to cooperate with the operation, the effect will be completely different?

"Go to the communications team." Shimono Ichiho wrapped his coat tightly, turned around and left.

##########

The white-knuckle battle on the Songjia Highway has come to an end.

Whether it is the Japanese army or the national army, they practice only a few simple assassination tricks, although these tricks are simple, but very practical, embodied in the actual combat, every time there will be one side of the fall, killed, this is like a knockout game, the winning players from eight to four, from four to two, and then from two to one, rapidly decreasing!

Half a bag of cigarettes, the Japanese soldiers all lay down, and the national army also died in battle!

Xu 19 held the short-handled bayonet dripping blood in his right hand, squatted down and snatched the saber from the hand of the dead officer Shaozuo, but it was just an ordinary adjutant knife, there was no chrysanthemum gilt pattern on the handle, and there was no word engraved on the guard, that is, the words of the eleventh year of Taisho were engraved on the blade near the gauntlet, and most of them were standard products.

Xu Shijiu easily rewarded the adjutant knife with two melons, and said, "Two melons, this knife belongs to you." ”

"Thanks, Captain Xiexie." Ergua took the knife, he was so happy that he couldn't speak, and the soldiers of the guard platoon next to him were envious when they saw it, and then rummaged around with red eyes, even if they couldn't find the adjutant knife, if they could get a lieutenant knife and don't play with it on their waists, it would be good.
