readx;? The commander of the 11th Brigade of the Japanese Army, Major General Tokutaro Shisai, was commanding his men to resist the attack of the Shina army from three directions with all their might, when he suddenly received a report from his subordinates that a chariot of the Shina people had appeared in the west. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Tokutaro Shikai was so shocked that he hurriedly mobilized all the mountain artillery and infantry guns, and opened fire on the west. Japanese artillery was damaging to the armored vehicles of the armored battalion, but the damage to the tanks was very slight.

The tanks of the armored battalion braved the Japanese artillery fire and rushed towards the Japanese positions. The Japanese soldiers on the defensive position, seeing that the artillery could not stop the chariots of the Chinese people, began to tie explosives and grenades to their bodies, rushed out of the position and played with human bombs.

The soldiers of the second battalion who followed closely behind the battlecar were killed and wounded by the Japanese artillery fire, and the rest were in accordance with the requirements of the training, closely following up and protecting the chariots. Under the double cover of the heavy machine guns on the infantry and armored vehicles, the Japanese soldiers who rushed up fell one after another on the way up, and some soldiers who could get close to the tank did not cause any damage to the tank after pulling the explosive bag on their bodies.

Soon, the tank broke into the Japanese position, and continued to attack the depth of the Japanese position, the Japanese soldiers on the front line, seeing that the position was broken, hurriedly retreated, and the retreating Japanese soldiers became the target of the heavy machine guns on the armored vehicles behind the tanks, and the officers and soldiers of the second battalion who rushed to the position. Amid all kinds of gunfire, the retreating Japanese soldiers fell down with screams.

By this time, the retreat had already become a rout, which lasted until after the core positions of the Japanese army, and was halted. This core position is not large, but it is home to more than 1,000 elite soldiers of the 11th Brigade, including the flag protection squadrons of the two wings. The Japanese introduced the only four 37 rapid-fire guns in the ranks, which were used to directly aim at the rushing chariots.

Because it had broken through the Japanese position, it was difficult for the chariots to maintain their original formation, and the two lightly armored vehicles that broke out in front were destroyed by the Japanese army's 37 rapid-fire guns at once, and the soldiers of the second battalion who followed the battle also suffered many casualties. The remaining fighters called for support while looking for cover. Soon after, two heavy tanks drove up.

The Japanese still wanted to use the 37 rapid-fire guns to deal with the heavy tanks, but the shells of the 37 rapid-fire guns could not help the heavy tanks with a 15-centimeter-thick synthetic inclined steel plate on the front, while the 100 tank guns on the two heavy tanks used a few shells to mercilessly destroy these rapid-fire guns. Having lost their last support, the encircled Japanese knew that their defeat was imminent.

After sending another telegram to the headquarters of the 6th Division asking for help, but to no avail, the two brigade commanders Mitsuru Ushijima and Tokutaro Shikai ordered the destruction of the wing flag and sent a decisive telegram directly to the commander of the 10th Army, Yanagidaira Naosuke. After dealing with everything, the two men listened to the shouts of killing coming from all sides, and ordered all the soldiers to launch a decisive charge against the Chinese army, while the two brigade commanders committed suicide in the tent of the command post at the same time.

At this time, this encirclement and annihilation battle had come to an end, and thousands of Japanese troops were completely annihilated on this surrounded position. Wang Haitao also had an order not to take prisoners and leave no one alive, so starting with Major General Ushijima Mitsuru and Major General Tokutaro Shikai, the commanders of the two brigades, all the Japanese troops were wiped out and no one survived. Brigade commander Tang Renxin left the 544th Regiment to clean up the battlefield, while the rest of the troops turned to the West Gate, preparing to make dumplings for the Kunisaki detachment.

When the three regiments of the new 90th Division, the armored battalion, and the guard battalion rushed to the west gate of Songjiang City, the Kunisaki Detachment withstood the attack of the 322nd Brigade of the 108th Division, and used the advantage of weapons to counterattack.

After Tang Renxin rushed to the west gate with the soldiers of the three regiments, the armored battalion and the guard battalion, Tang Renxin immediately asked the 542nd Regiment and the 543rd Regiment and some light armored vehicles to outflank the Kunisaki detachment, while the 547th Regiment and the guard battalion launched an attack on the Kunisaki detachment together with the tanks and heavy armored vehicles of the armored battalion. The armored battalion and the guard battalion again put on an offensive formation and launched an attack on the positions of the Kunisaki detachment, with the 547th Regiment following closely behind the guard battalion.

When Major General Kunizaki Noboru heard from his subordinates that the Arishina chariot had launched an attack on his flank position, and the Shina troops accompanying the chariots were very well-equipped and were the elite of the Shina troops. Major General Noboru Kunisaki immediately understood that the Sixth Division was less fortitive, and what could one of his own Kunisaki detachments do?

The Kunisaki detachment withdrew too quickly, and the 542nd and 543rd regiments had not had time to outflank in place, so a battle of annihilation turned into a pursuit battle, and the Kunisaki detachment originally wanted to take advantage of the location to block the enemy at the railway station, but they had just arrived at the railway station, and the armored battalion and the guard battalion had already followed. Other units have a tendency to encircle the railway station.

Kunisaki did not dare to stop at the railway station any longer, leaving a squadron of Japanese troops to block the enemy at the railway station, while the rest retreated to the Huangpu River. The Japanese of this squadron held back the pursuing troops for two hours at the cost of all their deaths. By the time the pursuing troops had annihilated the squadron and arrived at the Huangpu River, Noboru Kunisaki and a large group of Japanese troops had already crossed the Huangpu River, and there were still more than 2,000 Japanese troops preparing to cross the river in the north of the river. Tang Renxin commanded three regiments of soldiers, plus an armored battalion and a guard battalion, to surround the more than 2,000 Japanese troops from three sides, and after three hours of fierce fighting, they completely annihilated the more than 2,000 Japanese troops.

In addition, when the 324th Brigade of the 108th Division arrived outside Huayang Town, it happened that the reconnaissance battalion had already defeated the headquarters of the 6th Division of the Japanese Army and was retreating to Songjiang County. As soon as Tang Xiaoshan heard that Wang Haitao ordered the reconnaissance battalion and the 324th Brigade of the 108th Division to cooperate in the capture of Huayang Town, he immediately came to his senses. Tang Xiaoshan sent a platoon back to Songjiang County first, and informed Wang Haitao of the spoils of war and the defeat of the headquarters of the Sixth Division and the killing of the commander of the Sixth Division, Gu Shoufu, and the chief of staff of the Sixth Division, Shimono Ichihuo Dazuo, while the rest of the soldiers were divided into several combat groups to cooperate with the soldiers of the 324th Brigade to attack Huayang Town.

At this time, in Huayang Town, the Japanese army had already learned that the division headquarters had been attacked by the Zhina, and that the division commander, chief of staff, and others of the division and regiment had broken things, and the wing commander of the engineer wing and the wing commander of the baggage wing were discussing what to do next. At this moment, the attack of the 324th Brigade on Huayang Town began. At the same time, the two wing commanders decided to abandon Huayang Town, and all of them went east, striving to join the 18th Division.

After the order was issued, the Japanese soldiers could no longer take care of the baggage and supplies, and all rushed out of the east gate of Huayang Town in a hurry and retreated eastward. The commander of the 324th Brigade, Xia Shuxun, saw that the Japanese had given up resistance and retreated to the east, so he ordered one battalion to be left to take over Huayang Town, and the rest of the troops pursued the Japanese army eastward. The Japanese army was constantly attacked by the 324th Brigade that followed during the retreat, and the retreat became a rout.

When the rest of the 6th Division of the Japanese army had only more than 1,000 people and fled 12 miles east of Songjiang City, they encountered a wing of soldiers from the 18th Division who had come to rescue the 6th Division, and then stopped. When the wing commander of this wing heard about the situation of the 6th Division, he was shocked and hurriedly ordered the soldiers to stop advancing westward, build a defensive line on the spot, block the pursuing troops in China, and immediately report the situation by radio to Lieutenant General Ushijima Sadao, the commander of the division.

After the soldiers of the 324th Brigade eliminated most of the Japanese troops, the soldiers who were pursuing in front found that the Japanese army had built a defensive line and blocked the way, so they reported the situation to the brigade commander Xia Shuxun. In order to prevent the Japanese from suffering, he ordered the pursuit to be stopped and retreated to Matsue Prefecture.

At this point, the Songjiang Resistance Battle ended. The 6th Division of the Japanese Army was counted from the division commander, only more than 1,000 auxiliary troops survived, and the remaining more than 20,000 soldiers were all wiped out around Songjiang County, and only the detachment leader Kunizaki Noboru and a large group of Japanese troops fled back to Jinshan County of the Kunisaki detachment that assisted the attack, and the rest of the Japanese troops were also wiped out. The New 90th Division suffered 1,600 casualties and nearly 2,000 wounded. The 108th Division lost nearly 1,500 people, including one regiment commander and two battalion commanders, and more than 3,000 were wounded, and Wu Qiwen, commander of the 322nd Brigade, was seriously wounded.

Although Wang Haitao politely asked the 108th Division to select the spoils first, the division commander Zhang Wenqing clearly knew that without the new 90th Division as the main force, let alone such a result, it would be a great fortune to be able to hold Songjiang County, so Zhang Wenqing was embarrassed to pick first, and after giving in, it was still Wang Haitao who took the lead and divided the spoils. In this way, the 108th Division also received an unprecedentedly rich spoils of war, and the officers and soldiers under the division commander Zhang Wenqing were all excited.

Wang Haitao took Zhang Wenqing and made a written report to Shangfeng on the whole process and results of this battle, and Wang Haitao clearly stated the attack of the 108th Division, which made Zhang Wenqing feel more grateful to Wang Haitao in his heart. After this report was sent to the above, it attracted the attention of all parties and made the Nanjing side jubilant.

When Matsui learned the news, he sat down in his chair and held the telegram in his hand. Matsui Ishine clearly knew that the entire army of the Sixth Division was annihilated, and his position as commander of the Shanghai Dispatch Army was over. However, Matsuishi Igane did not understand how the Sixth Division, which was one or the second largest in fighting in the Imperial Japanese Army, could fall to the point of total annihilation? Judging from intelligence, the Chinese army that wiped out the Sixth Division this time was the same as the number of the troops that had previously stopped the attack of the Imperial Japanese Army in Yanghang, Luodian, and other places, and it was the new 90th Division of the New 90th Division, and the division commander was a little-known young man named Wang Haitao.
