Dong Ku's army had already surrounded Shanghai when the Japanese army urgently sent troops to reinforce Shanghai, and the artillery was transported to the Shanghai front one after another.

Dong Ku knew very well that he could not take Shanghai as quickly as possible, and once the battle situation was deadlocked, reinforcements from the Japanese army would arrive. The Japanese army, according to reliable intelligence, not only had aircraft carriers and warships, but also enough to threaten Shanghai.

Nishio Shouzo did not dare to be careless, and at the moment when the troops reinforcing Suzhou were attacked, he directly ordered to withdraw, gave up the reinforcement of Suzhou, shrank back to Shanghai, defended, and waited for support.

He believed that in two days at most, cruisers, destroyers, and battleships would arrive, and about two thousand nautical miles, and at most two days would arrive from Tokyo.

Aircraft carriers, it will arrive in about the same time. Even if the troop carriers are slow, within four days, reinforcements will continue to arrive in Shanghai. And he believes that four days, how can it be kept.

Of course, Dong Ku also understood this truth, so he urgently marched to speed up the encirclement of various military points in Shanghai, and he wanted to take Shanghai within two days to avoid long nights and dreams.

Inside Shanghai, except for the more than 600 gangsters in the concession who did not participate in the battle and had other tasks, the total combat strength was gathered by nearly 7,000. He will not give Nishio Shou a chance to turn the tables, he will use the fastest speed to win Shanghai.

At the same time, he sent two freighters to transport the artillery from Crescent Island directly to Yushan Island, preparing for the interception of Japanese warships.

The army rushed quickly, without encountering the slightest obstacle along the way, and Yu Ke went straight to Baoshan, lightly armed, and tried to reach the front line in the middle of the night.

While they were all nervously preparing, the battle for Nanking had reached a critical moment.

Yu Lei's shelling made the battle easier. Japanese artillery hit less than twenty kilometers away. In vain bombing, the front line is constantly retreating, and the infantry, as long as they come forward to clean up the battlefield. In the afternoon, it had advanced to a position only fifteen kilometers from Nanjing, artillery. It was also a round of effective shooting to bombard the front line of the Japanese army.

Gu Zhutong, who watched this battle, was dizzy, he had commanded the army for many years, and he had never fought like this, and the artillery positions could be moved forward in turn to complete the offensive steps, and when he saw it, he could encircle Nanjing, making it difficult for the defending enemy in Nanjing to fly.

"It's too easy......"

He muttered, alarm rising in his heart. The advance army is definitely a fierce enemy in the future.

Time. Nervous and unintentionally asleep in the concession, he received reports from the troops that most of them had arrived at their positions, waiting for orders to attack.

At this time, the Japanese army was already in full position. It is no longer possible to carry out another sneak attack, at least a few major positions. The bunker has already been built, and if it is attacked again, it will undoubtedly suffer a big loss.

Dong Ku would not wait until dawn, and at four o'clock in the morning, he gave the order to attack at half past four.

Yu Ke, a long-distance run. Although they were traveling lightly, they were very tired after running for more than 100 miles, and they took a short break for three hours before receiving the order to attack. He did not hesitate to give the order to attack.

With the order, the troops got up from the ground, carried backpacks with six grenades on their backs, and quickly approached Baoshan.

The location of Baoshan is quite important, although it is only about ten miles in a radius, it can be handed out of the throat of the Yangtze River, ten miles to the south is Wusong Town, and ten miles to the west is the Lion Forest Fortress with the Yangtze River on both sides of the northeast side, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

The position, from the Lion Forest, Yuepu, Baoshan to form a line, the Lion Forest Fort, Zhu Zhai, Sunjialou and other places have built positions, not only the original position is reinforced, but also the Jiepai Town, Tuzhuyuan and other places have built fortifications, stationed a wing of troops, more than 3,000 people.

Only by taking Baoshan can we attack Wusong Town and complete the strategic posture of comprehensive encirclement of Shanghai.

Therefore, Dong Kucai sent troops to attack from a distance, go straight to this strategic point, take here, set up heavy artillery and anti-aircraft artillery, and can defend Shanghai together with Yushan Island.

In Baoshan County and several positions, the Japanese army was already facing a great enemy, although they did not know whether the enemy had arrived at their side, but they were also cautious enough, in the dark night, there were constantly flares flying in the air, the front of the position for thousands of meters, illuminated, want to get close, obviously not easy.

Yu Ke lay in the grass in the distance, looking at the vacant land where all the weedy houses had been demolished, and couldn't help but shake his head. Here, the offensive is already very difficult, and it is obviously impossible not to pay the price.

"Order the troops, attack more, remember, don't rush up with your life, there are still fifteen minutes, when the time is up, everyone rushes to a position of four hundred meters, quickly disperse, attack with guns and grenades, and snipe all the fire!"

"Yes!"

All the commanders shouted their orders and led the team to their respective targets.

The pointer walked forward second by second, and when the pointer pointed to half-past four, the battle broke out.

Yu Ke led the team to run quickly, under the illumination of the flares, ran wildly to more than 400 meters, and found the Japanese army on the opposite side, and the moment they opened fire, they quickly dispersed and lay on the ground.

Then, the heavy snipe in the back rang out.

The moment the Japanese soldiers in the Lion Forest position saw the pupils of the figure in the distance, the heavy machine gun rang out, and then, the flares flew up more frequently, and the cilia of the light appeared.

But the gunfire of the heavy machine gun rang out, and when it touched, the machine gunner was torn apart in the firelight, and blood splattered the face of the deputy shooter and the ammunition man next to him, which was extremely terrifying.

In the sound of banging, a stiff heavy machine gun was dumb fire, and the frightened Japanese soldiers did not have the courage to approach, and one by one wiped the hot liquid on their faces, and threw away the pieces of corpses that fell into their arms in fear, panicking.

In just a few tens of seconds of panic, Yu Ke and the others quickly crawled forward, approaching more than 100 meters under the noses of the Japanese army, and then, the sniper saw the Japanese troops in the position.

The sound of popping sounded, and the Japanese soldiers behind the position died in their own positions one by one before they knew what was going on.

"Fire!!"

The Japanese shouted in horror.

Then, in the light of the flares, a projectile flew out and fell indiscriminately into the open space of five or six hundred meters.

At the moment when the mortar shells flew, it was keenly discovered that although the position here was a circular position, it was also a trench, not a dark bunker, only two pillboxes.

"One detachment, staring at two pillboxes, others raid!!"

With the shouting, at the moment when the Japanese army panicked to reinforce here, the guns and grenades flew up like hailstones, and smashed into the Japanese position.

In the firelight, Yu Ke roared, and then jumped up, and ran forward while planting a gun grenade.

The dense explosions made it impossible for the Japanese to resist, let alone shoot from their stomachs. But the two bunkers erupted in flames the moment they saw the figures.

The moment the gunshots rang out, the charging warriors fell in pieces. The bullets of the 92 heavy machine guns are dense, one or two are not good, but the two pillboxes and four machine guns are different, and the dense bullets constitute a fire network, which firmly blocks the pace of the soldiers' charge.

But their guns rang out for less than two seconds, and in the bang, the heavy snipers found their targets one after another, directly tearing apart the Japanese soldiers in the pillbox, and even two bullets damaged the heavy machine guns.

The 12.7 caliber bullet is no joke, not to mention the machine gun, even the steel plate of the armored vehicle can penetrate it, as long as it hits, the machine gun will be scrapped immediately.

The charging team ignored the fall of their comrades and ran wildly, firing a second grenade. has already pounced into the position, and then, the dense fire flickered, and the battle for the position of the hand-to-hand soldiers began.

In the night battle, the Japanese army was not a strong point, and where were the weapons the opponent of the advance army, and in just two or three minutes, the Lion Forest position was captured.

At the same time as Yu Lei won the Lion Forest position, Yuepu, Zhu Zhai, and Sun Jialou. Battles broke out almost simultaneously in Jiepai Town and other positions, the battle had just ended here, and it was about the same time that the attack on the position was completed, basically all guns and grenades opened the way, sniper rifles supported, and ran wildly, and the battle ended in just a few seconds when the Japanese army was too late to dispatch and react.

Yu Ke heard a report from the walkie-talkie that the battle was going well and that the target was taken, and gave the order to attack Baoshan County.

The fierce gunfire made the Japanese troops in Baoshan County already on full alert, but they did not know in what direction to send reinforcements, all the telephones were no longer available, and they lost contact with the connected positions.

"Mortars are all on the line! Quick action!! ”

Yu Ke shouted, picked up a light machine gun, gestured, or threw it away, grabbed the drum next to him and stuffed it into his backpack, took out two grenades from it, stuffed them on the outside of the backpack, followed the troops, and rushed straight to Baoshan County in the continuous gunfire in the distance.

The Japanese army, for the first time, fought with the advance army, let alone at night, even during the day, when their heavy machine guns could not avoid sniper fire, as long as they entered the range of gun grenades, they were powerless to stop the pace of attack.

At the same time as Baoshan was attacked, the outer positions around Shanghai reported to Nishio Shouzo, and almost none of them were attacked, at the same time.

"Yaga!! Where did they get so much power!! ”

Nishio Shouzo roared, feeling unlucky, but he really couldn't understand why the advance army had so many troops.

Jiangyin, Changzhou, Suzhou, Wuxi, according to his estimates, these places do not have 150,000 people, it is absolutely difficult to eat his six divisions so quickly, it is only less than a day, and there are not enough troops, so it is impossible to do it at all.

But his roar could not solve the problem, so he could only give the order to die, hold the position, and wait for reinforcements.

Dong Ku also left the concession after giving the order to attack. He took Zuo Boyang and five hundred Huya warriors and guards with big knives on their backs and two spears on their backs, and went straight to Hongkou. He wanted to paralyze the command system of the Japanese army in the shortest possible time, and he wanted to turn Hongkou into hell, so that the Japanese army would fight separately, and it would be difficult to reinforce and coordinate.

This is how he relied on to quickly win Shanghai. As long as the headquarters is taken, the command of the Japanese army is paralyzed, and with the offensive speed of the advance army, it is not difficult to take Shanghai in two days! (To be continued......)
