Tashiro stood blankly in the wind and snow, letting the wind blow against his body, and none of his subordinates dared to step forward to comfort him, because all of them felt that the end seemed to have descended on the heads of the Seventh Division, and it would be pressed down like a huge mountain of ten thousand catties at any time, smashing them to the ground."
Your Excellency, our tank troops.The whole army has been wiped out" The chief of staff with a melancholy face slowly came to Tashiro's side, he had an unshirkable responsibility for the total annihilation of the tank troops, so even his voice was much quieter at this time."
Momoji Kotaro has already led all the remaining subordinates to surrender, and His Excellency the General, even the Honda Division has left without a fight.We don't have any reinforcements, and we're now completely surrounded by the New Fourth Army. ”A staff officer roared like a beast in tears before dying."
I have just contacted the Nanjing side, because the wind and snow are too strong, the planes of the aviation unit cannot take off, and the runway has been covered by wind and snow, and it will take a day to clear out.The Commander's Department meant, let's keep holding on, and they will send reinforcements back here as soon as possible.The navy has also re-dispatched six warships, but they have been blocked on the Yangtze River, because the water level of the last sunken warship is relatively shallow, so it will take them two days to reopen the channel. ”"That's enough" Tashiro interrupted the staff officers' briefings and turned to leave with a wry smile.This news was enough for him, and every additional word only increased the speed of his death.Since a person is going to die, then die quietly, the more bad news you hear, the greater the cry before death.The chief of staff of "Your Excellency General" caught up with the dejected Tashiro, and asked hesitantly: "You should know very well that we have lost all foreign aid, not even artillery.Just relying on these river fortifications is not low-grade for the New Fourth Army to attack, should we" Tashiro turned his head sharply and looked at his chief of staff fiercely: "Don't tell me anything about surrender, I'm not Momoji Kotaro, and I'm not one of those cowardly betrayers."
I am an excellent general of the Imperial Japanese Army, I am a soldier who is always loyal to the Empire, and I am Tashiro.Therefore, the Seventh Division will fight to the last man, shed the last drop of blood, and will definitely not allow the New Fourth Army to occupy our position easily.But if anyone dares to surrender to me, I will execute him on the spot for treason. ”The chief of staff was drenched in cold sweat on his forehead, and he took a step back in a panic: "Hai, I am willing to fight with His Excellency the General to the end with the New Fourth Army" Tashiro didn't even look at him, turned around and walked to his headquarters.He had already expressed his determination to swear allegiance to the emperor, and he would be in his headquarters and wait for the final attack of the New Fourth Army.On the other side of the Yangtze River, there was a sound of joy cheering for victory.This time, it was the five regiments of the independent brigade that came to ambush the devil's reinforcements, plus the reorganized reinforced artillery regiment, the strength can be described as very strong, with their equipment and the quality of the sick, it is completely easy to exterminate one of the devil's disease divisions, and the B division can also be quickly annihilated under the frontal attack.Even if they encounter the devil's armor division, they can still be undefeated in the absence of air assistance from the other party.Gao Dong listened to Lin Fan's report on the annihilation of the tank units of the Seventh Division, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Their tank troops have always been a problem for me, we not only lack offensive weapons, but also lack anti-tank weapons.If these tanks come back when we rush into their positions, our troops will suffer heavy losses. ”"The Japanese artillery has been almost completely destroyed by us, and now they are like vipers with their teeth removed, and they are completely ineffective under our artillery attacks.In this kind of weather, their planes can't come to support, so it's the best time to annihilate them in one fell swoop. ”Lin Fan said excitedly."
At this point, I'm afraid that General Su Yu and a few others have already started to arrange it" Gao Dong said with a smile: "What we have to do now is to set up artillery fire on the shore and wait for the general attack to launch the final bombardment against the devils" "I think, you are preparing to wait for the river to recondense" Lin Fan said with a smile, as if he had already seen through Gao Dong's thoughts."
I really can't hide anything from you, in front of you, I don't have any secrets" Gao Dong nodded helplessly."
Of course, I'm also an old subordinate who has followed you for many years.If I can't figure out the way my boss acts, how can I follow you and mix behind" Lin Fan smiled brightly."
Okay, don't talk nonsense, hurry up and ask Yang Jihong to move the artillery position to the bank of the river.Let's wait for the general attack on the other side now" Gao Dong clasped his hands in front of his chest and looked coldly at the Japanese position on the other side of the river, which could only be regarded as a dying position.On the other side of the river, in the temporary combat headquarters, everyone already knew that Gaodong had won a great victory, the devil's reinforcements had been completely annihilated, and now the Seventh Division had become a lone army.Xiang Ying immediately convened an emergency military meeting, and Su Yu, Xu Haidong, and Huang Kecheng all arrived to discuss the next military plan."
Captain Gao is really a god, hey, how do you say he is an unpredictable prophet, how can he definitely know that this river will freeze" Xu Haidong touched his head and laughed, this time, he was completely obedient to Gao Dong, and when he mentioned the three words of Captain Gao, his tone was also full of respect."
Lao Xu, people are masters, and some things can't be explained clearly in a few words.You coarse, don't ask about this," Huang Kecheng also laughed."
You can't say that, you have to share good experiences.We are all anti-Japanese revolutionary forces, Captain Gao taught us a little more, wouldn't it be more handy for us to fight devils," Xu Haidong turned his head and said."
Okay, okay, let's get down to business" Su Yu interrupted the two with a smile: "Captain Gao has created such a big opportunity for us, if we don't grasp it well, it will be too much to disappoint him."
The most urgent task at the moment is to determine the final plan of attack. ”"What is the best plan" Xu Haidong lined up the table, and his palm happened to be slapped on the position of the Japanese defense line on the military map: "Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the tiger of the Seventh Division has lost all its sharp teeth.They have no artillery, no support, and their planes are even more unlikely to come in this kind of ghost weather.Lao Su, you just take out all your guard artillery and bomb the devil's position indiscriminately. ”"Didn't the little devils bombard us normally with artillery fire this time, and let them taste what it was like to be bombed and couldn't even lift their heads, the Seventh Division, this is the ace elite unit of the little devils, we suffered a lot of losses from them before, this time, the new account and the old account should be settled together."
Xu Haidong said angrily."
I also agree with Lao Xu's opinion, the artillery bombarded, and the infantry followed.This time, we will use the way of others to govern their bodies, and the tactics used by the devils to deal with us, we will return them as they are, and see who uses them better. ”Huang Kecheng also nodded."
Good" Su Yu immediately made a decision: "In the battle of Anhui, we captured a large number of Japanese artillery fire, although this time it was blown up a lot by the devil's plane, but the first column and the independent brigade still have thousands of artillery.Let's fire at the devil's river defense position, this time, even if they are steel and iron walls, they will be blown into ruins. ”"More than 1,000 artillery" When Xu Haidong heard this number, his eyes were straightened, and his mouth was not closed for a long time.Huang Kecheng on the side was also shocked, unable to believe the numbers they heard.The New Fourth Army is already very happy to have mortars, even in the sequence of the national army, if a division can have two or three artillery pieces, then this division is already very rich.But Su Yu opened his mouth and said that they had more than 1,000 artillery pieces, which was countless times stronger than the firepower of the Japanese army.Xu Haidong swallowed a mouthful of saliva violently, and looked at Su Yu flatteringly: "I said Lao Su, we are all revolutionary comrades-in-arms, you see that you have so many artillery, when the time comes.Why do you want to pull the brothers?
I don't want more, a hundred is enough.Or fifty, twenty is actually fine" Su Yu laughed, patted Xu Haidong on the shoulder and said: "Most of these artillery pieces were captured by the independent brigade, and Captain Gao also said that all these artillery pieces are distributed by ourselves."
Lao Xu, don't worry, you can take as much as you want, and make sure that you can manage enough. ”Xu Haidong and Huang Kecheng looked at each other and saw the excitement in each other's eyes.looked at Xiang Ying, who was smiling and silent, and the excitement in his heart suddenly overflowed.With so many artillery, if they are equipped with their troops, it will greatly increase the combat effectiveness of the troops countless times."
Tonight, launch a general attack on the Japanese position" Su Yu's fist slammed on the map, and his eyes flashed: "It's time to make a final break with the Japanese army." ”Just when the war in northern Jiangsu was in full swing, it was unusually calm on the land of Anhui.The Japanese were driven away, and under the governance of the independent brigade, Anhui was rapidly regaining its former style.In accordance with Gao Dong's instructions, Hu Xinghan recruited a large number of recruits to form a unit.In just half a month, a force of nearly 30,000 people has been formed, and Hu Xinghan has assigned special personnel to be responsible for training new soldiers, and at the same time, he has also stepped up the transformation of the militia units so that they can quickly transform into a regular army.In the southern Anhui region, in a mountain forest in Jing County, a large number of New Fourth Army troops were making a strategic shift, and they were ordered to go north, passing through this place, and were personally led by army commander Ye Ting."
Commander, in front of you is the station of a militia that is being newly trained by the Independent Brigade, should we go over and have a look?
I heard that the training level of the independent brigade is very high, and it also allows our comrades to learn and learn. ”An officer followed Ye Ting and said with a smile.Ye Ting shook his head: "Forget it, our task is important, we must rush to the place as soon as possible, let's go, there will be more opportunities in the future." ”At this moment, suddenly there was a loud shot ahead.A soldier came running quickly: "Commander, it's not good, we are surrounded by the Kuomintang army." ”:
