The supplies of the 114th Division and the 6th Brigade of the Field Heavy Artillery, which were previously captured, can be more than doubled ⊥ the new 2nd Division. Now that there are a large number of seizures, how can Wu Ming not be overjoyed?

As for weapons and equipment, Wu Ming has always been more and better, and he said with a smile: "Fan Daoquan is good, seize the opportunity to work hard, and do not let the Japanese have time to sabotage...... By the way, what's the good stuff?

Zhang Ying handed the telegram to Wu Ming: "Everything is listed on the list, let's see it for myself."

Wu Ming looked carefully from beginning to end, and raised his head in disbelief: "So many seizures?"

Zhang Ying nodded again and again, and explained with a smile: "When I just received the telegram, I couldn't believe it, so I called Brigade Commander Luo and asked him to help verify it, but he called quickly, he is now in the Japanese army warehouse area, where arms and materials are piled up, this time our new second division is really big."

The 1st Brigade did find a lot of good things in the warehouses in the Jinshan Weigang District, the most important of which was 98 trucks, 36 75-mm field guns and mountain guns, 31 Type 92 infantry guns, more than 90 Type 92 heavy machine guns, more than 200 crooked machine guns, 38 guns, grenadiers, telephones, telephone lines, fuel and ammunition, and 20 radio stations that had just arrived from Yokosuka.

These materials and equipment were transported from Japan to Jinshanwei Port and transported to the front line by trucks according to the front-line consumption to support the Japanese 6th Division, 18th Division and Kunisaki Detachment.

The 114th Division was unexpectedly annihilated by the New 2nd Division, and the New 2nd Division attacked rapidly, like a clever boxer, and it took only half the night to regain the lost ground continuously, and the Japanese army could not react in time, and this batch of materials naturally fell into the hands of the New 2nd Division.

Wu Ming was already numb to weapons and ammunition, and what made Wu Ming feel very relieved was that he had harvested ninety-eight trucks

With these vehicles and the seized fuel, the transfer of supplies will be much easier and faster. The so-called golden decade of the Republic of China did not develop light and heavy industry, especially the military industrial system, but instead sorted out the transportation in the coastal areas, at least all towns in the Pinghu area are connected by roads.

"Division, such a large number of supplies, we have to transport them away quickly, if we wait for dawn, the Japanese army has planes in the sky and fleet heavy artillery at sea. At that time, this batch of materials will not be able to be saved" After being happy, Zhang Ying said anxiously.

Wu Ming also felt a little tricky.

These war materials are easy to obtain, but it is extremely difficult to bring them back.

At present, there are four main modes of transportation: one is manpower, which is carried by people, but the officers and men of the new Second Division have been seriously overdrawn in continuous combat, and some are unrealistic; The second is through animal power, at present, the artillery regiments and baggage regiments directly under the division are equipped with pack horses and pull horses, which can just come in handy; The third is to make full use of the existing vehicles of the artillery regiment and the baggage regiment, as well as the 98 Japanese-made trucks captured on the battlefield, to first pull the supplies back to Pinghu and then transfer them to the rear; The fourth is through the waterway. The Pinghu area has a dense water network, and the new 2nd Division has collected all the boats and boats from the surrounding villages and centralized management, which can now come in handy.

Time was running out, Wu Ming immediately decided: "Section Chief Zhang, you immediately call Deputy Division Commander Long, and ask him to hurry up to Jinshanwei to preside over the material handling work, and I will immediately order the artillery regiment, baggage regiment and engineer regiment directly under the division to mobilize vehicles and personnel and rush to Jinshanwei ......."

After Zhang Ying recorded Wu Ming's order, he looked at the map before leaving the war room, and sighed: "Shizuo, this time the task is very difficult."

Indeed, several roads and waterways leading to Jinshanwei were under the threat of Japanese aircraft and fleet artillery groups, and there was nothing at night, and once the Japanese detected it at dawn, it was a scene of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

"No matter how difficult it is, we must work hard to overcome it, this batch of materials is very crucial for our next operation" Wu Ming said solemnly: "So this time the army and the people must be mobilized together, it is now half past two in the morning, and there are still three to four hours before dawn." In this way, you tell Deputy Division Commander Long that what can be transported back will be brought back. If you really can't bring it back, you will blow it up, and don't leave anything for the little devil."

Thinking that so many materials were wasted because of transportation problems, Wu Ming's heart ached. After thinking about it, he continued: "After calling Deputy Division Commander Long, you can notify Yang Sixian and Luo Yuming and ask them to send reconnaissance troops to guard the northern line and the eastern region, and the rest of the men and horses will all go to carry supplies, and now they can only grit their teeth and insist."

"This is a solution" Zhang Ying nodded slightly: "Master, it's not early, I'll send a report now"

Wu Ming walked out of the war room, called Sun Chengyuan, and ordered him to lead the cavalry company and bicycle company directly under the division, which had only been formed shortly after arriving in Pinghu, to inform the fishermen to go to Jinshanwei by water to rush to transport supplies, and then to call the artillery regiment, the baggage regiment and the engineer regiment to give orders.

When Wu Ming walked out of the telecommunications room, the sky was dripping with light rain.

Wu Ming's face changed, once the rain became heavier, the troops marched in the mud, whether it was vehicles or pedestrians, it was very difficult, and it would inevitably affect the handling. But on second thought, once it rained heavily, the Japanese fighters could not take off, and at the same time, the Japanese fleet's field of vision was blocked, which undoubtedly guaranteed the safety of the transport troops.

Wu Ming returned to the war room, took out a towel to wipe the rain on his head, and Dai Ziran, who had returned to the division headquarters not long after dealing with the prisoners, walked in and reported to Wu Ming the plan for the next stage of operations formulated by the General Staff Office:

"Division, now that the 114th Division of the Japanese Army has been completely annihilated by us, the remaining troops of the Japanese Tenth Army are distributed on both sides of the Huangpu River on a long front from the Wusong River in the north to Fengjing, Zhujing, and Fengxian in the south, and the defense is extremely weak. As far as the present situation is concerned, we can completely integrate the four regiments of the supplementary brigade into the first and second brigades, and then organize the officers and men of the militia regiments of the four regiments into supplementary brigades, and once again assemble the troops of the eight regiments, and march to the line of Yexie, Tinglin, and Songyin, so as to advance to Jinshan and Songjiang counties. If the Japanese army does not send troops back from the front line, we can take the opportunity to recover these two strategic points."

After explaining the plan, Dai Ziran continued: "After the Japanese 18th Division occupied Fengjing, it immediately joined forces with the Guoqi detachment to attack Jiashan and Jiaxing, and has been fighting continuously on the front line of Jiashan and Pingwang for a week. The 6th Division captured Qingpu and Baihegang successively, but encountered stubborn resistance from the Chinese army in Kunshan, and the strategic plan of joining forces with the 16th Division and the Shigeto Detachment failed in victory, so it handed over the task of attacking the fortification to other Japanese troops, turned back to Songjiang, and changed its route to attack in the direction of Pingwang and Wuxing. ”

"Once our army captures Jinshan and Songjiang counties, it can threaten the Japanese army from the flank, put it in a dilemma, greatly relieve the pressure of the fraternal troops facing the enemy, and plan for retreat."

Wu Ming nodded: "That's it, now report the battle report to the Military Committee first, and wait for a few days to mention the battle plan, we need two to three days to carry the materials and adjust the troops...... Remember, the battle report tried to say that the losses were as large as possible, and the captures were smaller, and the more sensational the better, the last time the Japanese wing flag was captured, the commission had no other benefits except for the telegram and the reward of 100,000 legal currency, and the loss was big."

"If it weren't for the fact that we had our own reserve troops and weapons replenishment channels, I am afraid it would be difficult to withstand this wave of rapid offensive of the Japanese army, and we could only end up with the 67th Army that stuck to Songjiang County.

The new 2nd Division completely annihilated the 114th Division and the 6th Field Heavy Artillery Brigade of the Japanese Army, and killed one lieutenant general, two brigade commanders, and four wing commanders.

Now that the Songhu battlefield is being defeated in great strides, the new second division not only withstood the three-dimensional attack of the Japanese army, sea, and air, but also annihilated an entire division and a heavy artillery brigade, and by the way recovered a large area of lost territory.

"True or fake?"

Qian Dajun muttered a sentence and took the lead in questioning: "The Pinghu line where the new Second Division is stationed is under the direct threat of Japanese naval guns and naval aviation, you can imagine the Luodian, Yanghang and Yunzaobang areas with similar topography, where the Chinese army has lost at least 30 divisions. Fighting in such an area, it is already a great achievement to be able to withstand the Japanese offensive, but they called and said that the attacking Japanese army would be annihilated in formation, is this possible? ”

"Whether it is true or false, can only be judged by the chairman"

Lin Wei ignored Qian Dajun, who was still chattering, and went to the bedroom where the chairman was resting. Chiang Kai-shek, who had just fallen asleep, was woken up by the guards, and his face was a little uneasy, but after reading the telegram, the information in it made Chiang Kai-shek's mind sober up all of a sudden.

"Annihilate the 114th Division of the Japanese Army and the 6th Brigade of the Field Heavy Artillery, and recover the Quangong Pavilion, Jinsiniang Bridge, Jinshanwei ......" Chiang Kai-shek's eyes widened, his mouth recited silently, and then looked at Lin Wei with questioning eyes: "Is this possible?" ”

Lin Wei lowered his head: "Chairman, after receiving the telegram, I immediately went to the telegram to review, the new Second Division said that the battle report was correct, and requested the Third Theater Command to send personnel to the Pinghu area to verify and escort more than 1,000 Korean puppet soldiers back to Beijing. Wu Ming then sent a supplementary telegram, saying that the new Second Division had suffered heavy losses, that all the regiments under its command had basically been wiped out, and that the last attack was gnawed down by the guard battalion directly under the division headquarters led by Wu Ming himself. ”

Listening to Lin Wei's explanation, Chiang Kai-shek finally stopped doubting it, after all, the more than 1,000 Korean prisoners of war couldn't fake it. Chiang Kai-shek showed a rare smile:

"Wu Mingshi is a model for Chinese soldiers, and the new Second Division is worthy of being called 'the sharp blade of the country, after this battle, the vitality of the Japanese 10th Army has been greatly damaged, and presumably the pressure on the front line from Wujiang, Pingwang to Jiaxing, and Jiashan will be sharply reduced, which is of positive significance to our rearmament on the national defense line."

Speaking of this, Chiang Kai-shek glanced at Lin Wei: "Weizhi, the new Second Division has made such a great achievement, it must be reported to the whole army, hyped up, and inspired the determination and courage of the Chinese people to resist the war."

Seeing that Chiang Kai-shek did not propose a substantial reward, Lin Wei took a step forward and asked respectfully: "Chairman of the Committee, for this result, the new Second Division has suffered heavy losses, and it cannot be rewarded."

"I know the way"

Chiang Kai-shek sighed slightly and shook his head: "But the treasury is empty, and money is needed in all aspects, especially the retreating army on the front line of Songhu, weapons and ammunition have been lost, and all need to be replenished by the central government...... Weizhi, what do you say to do? ”

When it came to the issue of money, Lin Wei didn't dare to squeak.

Although Chiang Kai-shek was not good at military affairs, in terms of political ability, he was far better than his contemporaries Feng Yuxiang, Yan Xishan, and Li Zongren, and he knew better than anyone that meritorious service would be rewarded.

The last time the New Second Division captured the flag of the 150th Wing of the Japanese Army, and sent a large number of Japanese prisoners of war to parade through the streets of Nanjing, this greatly boosted the morale of the Chinese military and people to resist Japan, and it was not at all worth 100,000 legal dollars. Now that the new second division has made new contributions, it must no longer be able to pretend to be deaf and dumb, but where does the money come from?
