December 12, 1938, 4:10 p.m.
Only 20 kilometers away from the waters of Daya Bay, thousands of large and small ships are moored, stretching for dozens of kilometers.
It's like a huge fleet This fleet was the Japanese 5th Fleet, which destroyed the British Far East Fleet a few years later.
The task of the 5th Fleet was to carry the main force of the 18th Division of the Japanese Army to carry out landing operations.
This time, the scale of the Japanese 5th Fleet was not a small fight with the Hechuan detachment before.
In addition to battleships, destroyers, cruisers, and frigates, the entire fleet also has many large transport ships, as many as 60 ships, and the rest of the ships of various sizes are added up, totaling more than 1,500 ships.
The scale is so large that it covers the sky and the sun It's a terrifying time However, it is surprising that the Japanese fleet of such a large size actually stopped, instead of speeding up its march or forcing its landing.
The commander-in-chief of the Japanese army, the commander of the Japanese 21st Army, Lieutenant General Guzhuang Ganlang, who was in charge of the attack on Guangzhou, immediately changed his original battle plan after hearing that the plan for the surprise attack on Daya Bay was exposed and met with strong resistance from the Chinese defenders.
"Order the 18th Division to stop advancing and wait for the 104th Division to converge with the 104th Division, which is coming later."
The original plan formulated by the commander of the Japanese army, Furuzhuang Michiro, was to wait until the Kagawa detachment landed first.
The Japanese 18th Division then landed at Sa Chun Yu in the western part of Daya Bay; The Japanese 104th Division landed in the area of Iwamae Port in the eastern part of Daya Bay.
However, now that it is known that the Chinese defenders are on guard, a forced landing will only increase their own casualties, which is not the result that the commander-in-chief of the Japanese army, Furuzhuang Michiro, hopes to see.
This was the order for the 18th Division to stop advancing.
Many people understand the order of Guzhuang Ganlang, which is out of consideration for the lives of the imperial warriors.
But within the Japanese army, there were still many people clamoring for a strong attack.
"Warriors of the Empire, fearless of any provocation" "I, the Imperial Japanese Army, are invincible" This kind of opposition was especially fierce in the 18th Division of the Japanese Army.
The conference room of the main ship of the 18th Division of the Japanese Army.
Lieutenant General Na Chengyi of the division was flushed and angry He roared at a group of officers: "What is the Imperial Sakura Mechanism for, the Chinese army has long been fortified in Daya Bay, why didn't you get any relevant intelligence in advance, and the empire spent a huge amount of money every year, so you cultivated them this group of waste?"
As he spoke, an angry Seiichi Kuna kicked all the spare chairs in the conference room to the ground, kicked the ground and shattered the powder, making a muffled sound.
None of the Japanese officers standing in the two rows in the conference room dared to say a word, and they all bowed their heads and bowed their heads with extremely respectful attitudes.
Not long ago, the 18th Division of the Japanese Army received the news that the Kagawa detachment was defeated at Little Turtle Island, and the personnel suffered heavy casualties.
If that were the case, Lieutenant General Seiichi Jiuna would not be so angry.
"It's been so long since Yaga, where did the Jichuan detachment go, why didn't anyone answer me?"
In ancient times, the ancients were very superstitious Every time on the eve of a big war, you have to ask some feng shui soothsayers to divinate a hexagram to find out the good luck.
First, there is a tradition that has been passed down for thousands of years; The second is to seek psychological comfort to boost the morale and morale of the army.
Although Japan has developed decades after the Meiji Restoration and has a high degree of national civilization, the culture of "gods" still has a very high status in Japan.
They are extremely taboo about losing the first battle of each big war In the first landing battle, the Hechuan detachment suffered a setback, how could it not make the Japanese army angry Nearly half an hour has passed since they received the message of the defeat of the Jichuan detachment, but where is the figure of the Jichuan detachment in the waters of Daya Bay.
For a while, everyone was left in a cold sweat.
Now that the figure of the Jichuan detachment cannot be found, then there is only one possibility.
That is the Jichuan detachment, all the jade shattered "Abominable" After a long time, Lieutenant General Cheng Cheng of the division and regiment calmed down his anger, waved his hand, and asked the officers to sit down.
"Ladies and gentlemen, General Ben was a little out of shape just now, I'm sorry" Lieutenant General Na Chengyi of the division gritted his teeth.
Hearing this, how could the officers below dare to accept his apology "Your Excellency the Division Commander, this battle is not your responsibility, everything is caused by the stupidity of the Sakura Agency, and of course Kazukawa Rio is also an idiot."
"What Matsushima-kun said is exactly what he said" A group of Japanese officers waited for a full hour, and did not wait for the order of the military headquarters, and one by one the officers could not help but become a little impatient.
"It's been an hour, it's almost dawn, why hasn't Your Excellency the Commander given us an order?"
"I don't think we need to adjust the battle plan at all, even if our landing plan is exposed, but so what?"
"That is, we are an invincible Japanese Imperial Army, and we can still be afraid of the Chinese people."
"Retreating at this moment is simply a sign of cowardice and cowardice" "With the combat strength of our 18th Division, plus the naval guns of the 5th Fleet, it is enough to tear apart any line of defense of the Chinese army" At this moment, more than 80 percent of the Japanese officers present believed that they should immediately attack.
"The warriors of the empire must not retreat or stop at all" Their reason is simple, that is, they believe in their own strength, and believe that they are capable of defeating all enemies In fact, there is another key factor, that is, most of them present are dissatisfied with the commander of the 21st Army, Guzhuang Ganlang It should be said that it is very dissatisfied This involves a regional issue, the Japanese army's permanent divisions and regiments have their own fixed recruitment locations in Japan, such as the Tokyo Division, the Osaka Division, and so on.
The recruitment site of the 18th Division of the Japanese Army was Kurume, so the 18th Division was also called the "Kurume" Division.
The entire 18th Division, except for a few people, more than ninety percent of the people were Kurumes.
The people of the Kurume area are fierce and do not obey discipline.
In a word, the poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people They don't look down on Guzhuang Ganlang, a city person.
And one more reason.
The commander of the 21st Army, which was originally scheduled for the Japanese base camp, was supposed to be Lieutenant General Na Na Chengichi of his own division, but I don't know what the reason was, the commander's throne that Ku Na Cheng was bound to win was taken away by Guzhuang Ganlang.
Therefore, most of the officers of the 18th Division were upset about their own division's long-term acceptance "Your Excellency, Division Commander, Guzhuang Ganlang is too cowardly, he is not a samurai at all, he is not worthy of being the commander of our 21st Army, he asked us to stop the march this time, because I am afraid that you will rob him of his credit" "Yes, that's right, if His Excellency the division commander was the commander of the 21st Army, we would have swept through the Chinese army and taken the whole of Guangdong."

Hearing the words of the people, Lieutenant General Na Chengyi of the division couldn't help frowning deeply, and his hands were tightly clenched into fists.
"Abominable" How could he not know that the officers under his command were complaining about themselves Jiu Na Chengyi was unwilling was unwilling to accept the throne of the commander of his 21st Army, and was cut off by Guzhuang Ganlang I am not willing to see the victory of my hand and lose it from my own hand But no matter how unwilling you are, what can you do?
The Japanese army was highly hierarchical, and since Furuzhuang Kanro ordered him to stop advancing, he had to stop advancing, otherwise he would be violating the military order Among the Japanese officers present at this time, there was only one middle-aged Japanese officer, who did not say anything.
He chose silence The silent middle-aged officer, named Katsuo Edano, was the new wing commander of the Mountain Artillery Wing of the 18th Division of the Japanese Army.
At this time, Ouyang was not here, otherwise he would definitely exclaim Katsuo Ediya is not a real historical figure, but a character who broke out in the system, from the Gungod TV series.
Katsuo Edano, Force: 55, Commander: 72, Wisdom: 65, Politics: 25; Nicknamed "Ruthless Cannon Demon" has a dual identity in the play, one is a martial arts instructor with rich experience in artillery warfare, and the other is an ambitious Japanese commander.
He used his status as a lecturer to secretly collect intelligence in China and develop available talents.
Yang Zhihua, head of the artillery regiment of the 512th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army, is Katsuo Edano's protégé in the artillery god TV series.
After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Yang Zhihua and Katsuo Edano competed many times, and teachers and students fought on the battlefield.
Katsuo Edano is calm, resolute, and not panicked, and is an excellent military commander.
"Such contempt for superior officers, how can you win a battle with a bunch of stupid guys" Katsuo Edano glanced coldly at the group of Japanese officers, and sneered in his heart.
Katsuo Edano looked down on these officers in his heart Daya Bay, Sanmen Island.
Gao Dashan, deputy commander of the Independent Regiment, had already observed the stagnation of thousands of Japanese ships, and he couldn't help but be surprised.
"Little devil, what kind of trick is this?"
At this moment, Liu Xiaoshan rushed over and said eagerly: "Deputy Commander Gao, it's not good, 10 kilometers southwest of Sanmen Island, the fleet of the British has been discovered. ” British fleet In an instant, Gao Dashan's pupils shrank suddenly Then his face was overjoyed The fleet of the little devils, the fleet of the British, this is getting more and more chaotic Immediately, Gao Dashan said in surprise: "Order the communicator, immediately send a telegram to the brigade headquarters, and report the situation to the brigade commander at this moment, well, ask again, when will our department open the gate of heaven" The sea battle is about to break out The second one is sent.
