In fact, there are also many black households in the national army.

There are many units that do not have names on the sequence list of the Ministry of Military Affairs.

Let's say, the predecessor of the 51st Division.

It was a supplementary regiment before. Not compiled.

Later, the Battle of Songhu was fierce and the troops were tense, so the supplementary regiment was also pulled up.

Of course, the Ministry of Military Affairs is in the hands of someone else, and it can be given a number right away. Thus, this supplementary regiment became the 305 regiment.

Zhang Lingpu is the first head of the 305th regiment.

He had previously been sentenced to 10 years in prison for shooting his wife. But after only a symbolic year, he was reappointed as the head of the regiment.

It can be seen that the law is really child's play on the side of the national army.

Shooting and killing his wife, what a crime. You can be safe and sound. You can also continue to advance to the top of the ranks. Don't boast about being a hero yet. It's just unreasonable.

If it had been on the side of the Eighth Route Army, he would have been shot long ago. The grass on the grave is several meters high.

No wonder so arrogant.

The 51st Division was developed from the 305th Regiment.

Strictly speaking, in this 305th regiment, there are many foundations of the Northwest Army. Therefore, the combat effectiveness is relatively strong.

Most of the soldiers of the entire 51st Division are from the Northwest Army. Even weapons and equipment are militarized in the northwest.

There were a considerable number of soldiers who had rifles in their hands, all of which were Mosinaghan.

Only the 305 regiment was equipped with a mid-formal.

"Dude, you've seen it all." Li Tianxia said pitifully, "Our 51st division is raised by my stepmother, my father doesn't hurt, and my mother doesn't love it!" Look at it, look at it......"

"See what?" Zhang Chu pretended to be stupid.

"Look at the weapons my brothers use. It's all pulling big bolts. It's all old stuff from decades ago. You need to pedal to pull the bolt apart. ”

"Water is a good gun."

"That can't hold a dozen hands before it reaches my hands!"

"Your 74th Army is the main ......"

"Phew! Others Hu Zongnan is the main force! The equipment of the First Army is the best. ”

"Ah, Hu Zongnan......"

Zhang Chu muttered to himself. Then nodded.

Indeed, Hu Zongnan's First Army is the number one main force of the national army.

You see, the numbers are all in the first place.

In fact, Hu Zongnan's First Army had the largest number of Whampoa students, the most substantial establishment, and the most abundant weapons and ammunition.

In addition, the First Army has one of the most bullish places. It was Lao Jiang himself who served as the first military commander!

But......

On the battlefield of resistance against Japan, almost nothing was done.

Because he will soon be transferred to Shaanxi Province. Responsible for monitoring and cordoning off the red Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo border area.

Move your best troops to keep an eye on your former opponents.

It can be seen that in the eyes of Lao Jiang, the murderous Japanese criminals are not as harmful as the red of the past.

Put the cart before the horse......

"Brother, take a look, help you take a look......"

"Understood. Howitzers were delivered immediately. ”

Zhang Chu knew what this guy wanted.

When it comes to slippery heads, no one can beat it.

However, it's not good to have a slippery head either. When you encounter a weak brigade, you can take advantage of it, and when you encounter a strong one, you will hit the street.

On the battlefield, he was always pressed and beaten by the Su God of War.

After fighting, the 83rd Division did not know where it disappeared.

It seems that there is no 83rd Division on the Huaihai battlefield?

I really don't know where to go.

It just so happened that the gap in Tanqiao Town was opened, and heavy weapons could be transported.

Soon, a large number of trucks arrived first.

What they sent was a 105mm howitzer.

One cannon with two trucks. One is responsible for pulling people and towing artillery. One was responsible for transporting shells.

"Ah......h

Li Tianxia was suddenly overjoyed.

He won't easily believe it until he sees the real thing.

Who can sit in their position is not like a ghost?

It's useless to talk about it.

You have to see the real thing to believe it.

"Arrange it now!"

"Arrange it now!"

Li Tianxia said with a smile.

Zhang Chu: ???

What is arranged?

But Li Tianxia couldn't wait to go up and inspect the howitzer.

Cold barrels.

Heavy metal frames.

If it is fake, it will be replaced.

A total of fifteen howitzers.

And so many trucks!

"Wow! Cannon! ”

"Wow! So many cannons! ”

"Wow!"

The surrounding officers and soldiers were all shouting in surprise.

Excited again, excited again. I didn't expect that they would get so much artillery support at this time!

You know, they're now surrounded by Japanese invaders. The Japanese are trying to wipe them all out.

The previous battle was quite hard. Basically, they were pressed and beaten by the Japanese invaders. It's hard to get a chance to fight back. It's hard to get out of the way.

It's good now. Reinforcements are coming.

The first wave of reinforcements came up, and it was so many heavy artillery.

That day must have been finished.

"American-made M1-105 mm howitzer ......"

"The total weight is about two tons......

"Maximum range 11 km ......"

"Maximum launch speed, about 15 rounds per minute......"

Zhang Chu briefly introduced.

Actually, Li Tianxia knows this kind of cannon.

Data on the information of this howitzer is made public. He's been involved in the past, too. But I didn't expect that I would have it.

Fortunately, it was given to him by Zhou Qing.

If it was allocated from above. Definitely not having their share. At least it is also directly under the military department.

In fact, those 105-mm howitzers imported from Germany formed separate heavy artillery regiments. Not part of any theater of operations, or an army group. Not to mention armies and divisions.

That's a weapon of the strategic level. It was personally commanded by the Military and Political Council.

To put it bluntly, Lao Jiang himself nodded. It is possible to be assigned to a certain war zone and conduct a certain battle. After the battle is over, it will be returned.

"How many shells per cannon?"

"A thousand rounds."

"Good, good!"

Li Tianxia was relieved.

A thousand shells for one cannon. That's quite a lot.

The German-made 105mm howitzers imported before were equipped with 1,000 rounds of shells per gun.

That's a strategic-grade weapon! There are simply not enough shells!

But now, with one division of their own, they have fifteen such howitzers. That's cool crooked.

I can't wait to put it into use right away.

"Smack!"

"Smack!"

Gunshots could be heard in the distance.

It was the Japanese attacking. Trying to compress the encirclement.

Although, the gap in Tanqiao Town is open. However, there were still many Japanese soldiers gathered around the 51st Division.

"Hoo ......"

"Poof......

Zhang Chu arranges the airdrop.

The main thing is all kinds of light weapons. And ammunition.

Howitzers can't cover the world.

In the end, the infantry had to settle the battle. So, light weapons are important.

Among them, three hundred Czech light machine guns were included. Fifty 60-mm mortars. Fifty 82-mm mortars.

In addition, the Suomi submachine gun is definitely wanted. The number is a thousand.

"Ah......h

Li Tianxia was amazed again.

With this dazzling array of weapons and ammunition, I feel that the whole division can change clothes!

Oh, except for Zhang Lingpu.

Isn't he cowhide, huh? Then do it yourself!

"Guard battalion!"

"Guard battalion!"

The first to order the guard battalion to replace it with a new submachine gun.

Then the main battalions of the individual regiments.

Like the 57th Division, the four regiments of the 51st Division, each of which also had a main battalion.

These four battalions are the ones who can fight the most.

This is true for most of the national army. The number of people is large though. But there are not many elite parts.

Except for Zhang Lingpu's 305th regiment, the other three regiments were all redressed.

Li Tianxia did what she said. It's really not a single bullet to Zhang Lingpu.

These weapons and ammunition. It was not allocated by the Ministry of Military Affairs.

That's what I, Li Tianxia, got through my personal relationship. Have a dime relationship with you Zhang Lingpu?

"I'll go to the front line!"

"I'll go with you!"

Li Tianxia picked up the steel helmet and put it on. At the same time grabbed a Mosinagan rifle.

Although it is a division commander. However, these people can still fight with guns. After all, it's only 1938. They were all in their thirties. Energetic.

Soon to the front.

There is a fierce exchange of fire on this side.

"Smack!"

Zhang Chu raised his gun and shot.

A Japanese soldier fell.

"Smack!"

Li Tianxia also raised her gun to shoot.

It's also a long-range kill of a Japanese criminal. One shot kills.

Zhang Chu: ......

Hehe, this slippery head still has the ability.

It's also relieved to think about it. After all, he is a third-term student of Whampoa. How can it be that there is no ability at all.

"Smack!"

"Smack!"

Concentrate on shooting.

Kill a ......

Killed another ......

Over there, Li Tianxia didn't have so many shooting opportunities.

He couldn't see that far.

There are also no sniper rifles.

Zhang Chu didn't have too many sniper rifles in his hand. Not available at this time.

"Boom ......"

"Boom ......"

Suddenly, a cannonball fell.

It was the 105-mm howitzers that were put into service.

Somewhat surprised.

"Master Li, that's good!"

"General, average!"

Li Tianxia is very modest. Actually, it's a bit proud.

In his troops, there were actually some artillery of the Northwest Army hidden. The technique and tactics are quite good.

Although previously all 75-mm mountain guns were used. But it is the same as the 105-mm howitzer. Now that it has received the big guy, it will soon be put into use.

Sure enough, as soon as the heavy artillery rang out, the attitude on the battlefield immediately changed.

"Boom ......"

"Boom ......"

Successive shells fell.

The Japanese immediately felt that something was wrong. This is a large-caliber heavy artillery!

Worst!

The Chinese army dispatched heavy artillery.

Got in trouble......

Their siege may not be able to continue.

"Boom ......"

"Boom ......"

The shells kept falling.

A steady stream of Japanese criminals were killed and wounded. The battlefield is in shambles.

The key is to gain and lose morale.

There is no doubt that with the use of heavy artillery, the morale of the national army has gradually increased, while the morale of the Japanese invaders has been slowly declining.

Nor are they robots. They will also be afraid, they will be frightened.

It had an absolute superiority in firepower before, and did not take the national army into account. But now, the national army has transferred 105 mm heavy artillery, and the Japanese invaders dare not be careless.

Hurriedly report it.

"Nani?"

"Heavy artillery?"

Michitaro Komatsubara was a little surprised.

Where did the heavy artillery of the national army come out? I didn't mention the previous information!

He and Kenji Tohihara have a division of labor.

Kenji Dohihara was to besiege the 7th Division of the National Army, and he was in charge of besieging the 51st Division of the National Army.

According to the intelligence judgment of the Japanese invaders, the 51st Division was relatively weak. After all, it started from the supplementary regiment. The background is not thick. It's perfectly fine for a division to be reunited.

The 74th Army of the National Army does not have heavy artillery!

Why did the 51st Division come out with heavy artillery?

Strange......

But I didn't think much about it.

And what if there is heavy artillery? How many shells are capable?

The ammunition of the national army was fatally wounded.

Even if there were weapons, there was not much ammunition.

Because of these ammunition, the Chinese themselves cannot produce it, and one shot will be less.

Just like the Surothong 20-mm machine gun that the tank troops were worried about before, they thought that it would pose a mortal threat to the Japanese tank troops. It turned out that there were none.

The Chinese didn't use those machine guns much at all.

Because there were no shells.

The ammunition consumption of machine guns is very large, dozens or hundreds of rounds a minute. Where can the Chinese afford it?

The front-line troops were immediately instructed to continue fighting. Do not worry.

It only takes a while to run out of shells for the Chinese. There was no artillery support.

However, the reaction of the front-line troops was: ???

No shells?

It's not like that!

"Boom ......"

"Boom ......"

A steady stream of shells fell.

It didn't stop at all.

The bombardment was fierce. In just a few minutes, two or three hundred shells fell.

The Japanese attack was completely cut off.

The 23 division was not armed with 105-mm heavy cannons.

That's the treatment that only the main division within the number 20 can have. The 23rd Division is not eligible.

Therefore, in the face of the bombardment of the heavy artillery of the national army, the Japanese invaders could only be beaten passively.

"Good!"

"Well played!"

"Good!"

The officers and men of the national army are all raising their eyebrows.

They can finally stand up with peace of mind without worrying about the fire of the Japanese invaders.

Because at this moment, the Japanese invaders are already too busy to take care of themselves.

Under the bombardment of 105-mm heavy artillery, the Japanese were only able to retreat. There was no need to attack again.

All the gloom is gone!

All the officers and men of the national army feel that they are already victorious!

Damn little devils!

Now it's your turn to get beaten!

Die to all!

"Yaga ......"

Takagi, the captain of the Japanese Army, was anxious and angry.

I never expected that it would fall short at this time.

It's about to destroy the enemy. Unexpectedly, at this critical moment, the enemy suddenly came with heavy artillery.

Annoying!

There is no ability to fight back at all.

The only thing that can be done is to persevere. Helplessly bombed.

Wait for the Chinese shells to run out.

However......

Not really.

The artillery fire of the Chinese is still fierce.

Half-hour......

One hour ......

The shelling continues.

The casualties of the Japanese invaders were already very fatal.

"Da Da Da ......"

"Da Da Da ......"

Suddenly, fierce gunfire rang out all around.

Takagi frowned.

It doesn't seem right.

It seems that the national army is fighting back. Could it be that the national army wants to break through?

Yo Xi ......

Want to break through?

When pigs fly!

The Imperial Army of Great Japan was invincible.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

"Boom, boom, boom......"

The gunfire became more and more intense.

Takagi hurriedly raised his binoculars. Observe the battlefield in the distance.

It soon became clear that something was wrong.

He saw through the telescope that the Japanese were under heavy artillery fire.

Not heavy artillery.

It's a damn mortar.

Why do the Chinese have so many mortars?

Feel like it's increased a lot all at once?

Before the battle, it seems that there were not so many. Where did this come from?

"Da Da Da ......"

"Da Da Da ......"

The machine-gun firepower was also greatly enhanced.

Soon, the Japanese positions were broken through. The Chinese army rushed up frantically.

Submachine gun!

Damn it!

It's a submachine gun again!

The Chinese are so fond of using submachine guns!

A squadron of the Japanese army could not resist at all. In a few minutes, it was already a complete collapse.

Damn it!

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

The Chinese continued to charge.

The Japanese invaders in the back stubbornly intercepted. Trying to hold the front.

However......

"Boom, boom, boom......"

"Boom, boom, boom......"

Mortars covered violently.

Then, there was a lot of machine-gun fire.

Then, there was a dense submachine gun.

The firepower is unprecedented.

Takagi had never seen such ferocious firepower.

Annoying......

If it continues like this, he will never be able to support it alone.

The firepower of the 51st Division has increased by at least three times compared with the previous one. In terms of combat effectiveness, the Japanese army was immediately pressed down.

He's a wing, how can he stop it?

"Request urgent tactical guidance!"

"Request urgent tactical guidance!"

Hurriedly call for help from superiors.

At the same time, the troops were ordered to want to retreat. Get out of the fire coverage of the Chinese as soon as possible.

Otherwise, the Takagi United will be wiped out!

"Nani?"

Michitaro Komatsubara frowned.

It seems that this 51st Division is really difficult!

However, he had a division and only three wings. It is unrealistic to want to besiege two divisions of the national army at the same time.

What to do?

It was decided to use one wing to first take the 155th Division into view, and then mobilize another wing to attack the 51st Division.

Komatsubara Michitaro felt that even if this 51st Division became stronger. The two wings of the Japanese army attacked together, and there was definitely no problem.

Two wings fighting one division of the national army are absolutely hand-to-hand.

"Smack!"

"Smack!"

Soon, the Japanese Sakata Wing was thrown into battle.

The national troops at the front hurriedly reported the situation. Some of them judged from the flag that it was Sakata United.

"Huh?"

"Nobutsu Sakata?"

Zhang Chu was a little surprised.

Nobutsu Sakata!

That's not Cangyunling......

Oh, there was an advance appearance.

That's it!

Then clean him up!

There is no need for Li Yunlong to make a move. Leave it to the national army.

"Sakata United ......"

Li Tianxia's expression was solemn.

Finally, I can't slip my head. He was underarmed.

He has a division, but in fact, there are less than 10,000 people. There are only more than 8,000 soldiers. There were also some casualties from previous battles. Now there are only about 6,000 people at most.

It's okay to deal with a wing of Japanese invaders. Two wings will not work.

"Give me a regiment, I'll be in charge of the Sakata United."

"Yes. But ......"

"What?"

"Only the 305th Regiment is closest to Sakata United."

"Okay. I'll go! ”

Zhang Chu didn't mind.

Isn't it just dealing with Zhang Lingpu?

Hehe. Afraid of him?

Immediately quit and set off. Came to the 305 regiment.

At this moment, Zhang Lingpu was commanding the 305th Regiment to fight against the Japanese invaders. The battle was fierce.

The 305th regiment was clearly at a disadvantage.

The troops are inferior to the Japanese invaders. The armament was also inferior to that of the Japanese invaders. Morale is not as good as that.

The Japanese are very fanatical. Even if there are consecutive crushing defeats, morale can be maintained at a certain level. What's more, now that the Japanese are attacking, they are naturally even more fanatical.

"Is that you?"

Zhang Lingpu saw Zhang Chu.

Zhang Chu nodded. It's an answer. You don't want to see me, I don't want to see you yet!

Arrogant fart!

I don't recognize my grandma who hasn't been beaten yet.

"What are you going to do?"

"Kill the Japanese Criminals!"

"You are not needed here. Please! ”

"I was sent by the division commander!"

"Our 51st Division is not under the control of your 57th Division. Be my guest! ”

"I'm talking about Master Li."

"What about the order? Bring! ”

"Do I need to show you the order?"

"Unauthorized entry into our positions without an order......"

"I want to die!"

Zhang Chu gave Zhang Lingpu a slap with his backhand.

Arrogant!

How dare you, a murderer, go to heaven?

"You ......"

Zhang Lingpu immediately drew his gun.

As a result, Zhang Chu snatched the pistol.

Boom!

The gun went off.

Zhang Lingpu browed.

Killed on the spot!
