In an era of heavy gunfire, no one knows whether they can survive until the next day. anything can happen, like now More than a hundred cannons fired continuously, and all the ammunition hit the Sixth Division's garrison.
Many people are still in their sleep, and their flesh and blood are already mutilated, and they can't even put together a complete body.
The 114th Division, which arrived twenty minutes ago, were all dumbfounded.
They were gearing up on the spot and waiting for the charge in half an hour, so they did not set up camp.
However, there were still many shells coming.
After a month and a half, the three divisions of the Central China Expeditionary Force were left with nearly 50,000 people, of which the 18th Division accounted for about 20,000.
That's right, the 18th Division has almost no consumption.
They are responsible for guarding Zhenjiang and ensuring smooth logistics.
The combined number of the Sixth Division and the 114th Division is more than 20,000.
For a month and a half, more than half of them were left here in this human flesh mill.
If not, how could the 114th Division rush over so rashly?
If the Sixth Division has full soldiers, no, even if there are only two-thirds of the soldiers, they will never agree to the request of the 114th Division.
This is what everyone in the 114th Division thinks.
In their eyes, the Sixth Division With full strength, it is not a problem to deal with 50,000 or even 80,000 people.
Japan has seventeen standing divisions, among which the Sixth Division and the Second Division are famous throughout Japan for their brutal and fierce fighting power.
Whether it was the Sino-Japanese War or the Russo-Japanese War, the Sixth Division was the vanguard The commanders of the 114th Division had doubts about the Sixth Division's promise to follow them, but they absolutely did not believe that the Sixth Division would be controlled by the enemy.
At the same time, after one and a half months, the Sixth Division has less than 9,000 soldiers left except the artillery.
And this.
This is also the reason why the 114th Division requested to cooperate with the Sixth Division to attack Zhonghua Gate.
Anyway, with the Sixth Division as the vanguard, they only needed to occupy the territory.
In this way, the problem of insufficient numbers of the Sixth Division can be solved by them, and the shortcoming of their slightly weaker combat power can also be filled by the Sixth Division.
Why not I thought this request would be rejected, but I didn't expect that the Sixth Division agreed later.
Could it be that Commander Yanagawa Heisuke gave the order?
Without thinking much, the 114th Division arrived.
They never doubted that this consent was forged by the enemy.
The China Army simply did not have this ability.
They would only run away, except for the Baoshan Regiment.
Yes, the little devils today are so confident.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to shout the slogan of destroying China in three months.
It seems now.
This is a complete trap, a trap set by the Chinese.
At this moment, Lieutenant General Suematsu Shigeharu, the commander of the 114th Division, and Colonel Saburo Isoda, the chief of staff, were all dumbfounded.
Looking at the direction in which the shells came, yes, it was definitely from their own troops.
How could the Sixth Division be like this?
What is the commander, Shiro Inaba, and the chief of staff, Ichiho Shimono, doing?
Why is there such chaos in the military camp?
"Retreat, retreat quickly" When the second wave of shells arrived, Suematsu Shigeharu screamed. now.
He had no ability to take care of the 6th Division anymore, and their 114th Division was also covered by artillery shells. night.
It was a mess, with people constantly walking in the middle, the tents were set alight, and the flames shot into the sky, making it even more eye-catching at night.
There was a violent explosion from the temporary ammunition depot, and it was unknown if someone had ignited the explosives inside.
Or he was accidentally hit by a shell.
The screams that shook the sky and the earth, and the confused shuttle.
At the same time, someone fired a black gun from behind.
They had no idea who it was, but bullets were fired into the crowd.
They don't know.

He didn't know anything, so he could only use his gun to shoot wildly at possible Chinese spies in all directions.
The men of the Sixth Division discovered that their commander was missing, their chief of staff was missing, and their brigade commander was also missing.
They were in chaos, completely in chaos, running around like headless flies.
The 114th Division is better, at least the commanders are still there.
But the hundreds of rounds of shells in a row also made them a little confused.
It didn't stop all night.
The artillery shells were very powerful and the pills killed more than 20,000 people.
At least thousands of artillery shells were needed.
But someone fired a black gun and the commander disappeared, which was enough for the little devil to blow up the camp.
In this chaotic situation, Suematsu Shigeharu also felt a little helpless.
Is this battle over?
Suematsu Shigeji smiled bitterly and persisted for a month and a half.
Victory was right in front of him.
However, after today, everything would have to start over again.
He could imagine at this moment that if the elders at the base camp knew about this situation, they would definitely tear them all apart. into pieces On November 7, 1937, the Japanese General Staff Headquarters formed the Shanghai Expeditionary Army and the 10th Army into the "Central Branch" Front Army, with Matsui Iwane as commander.
At that time, the Japanese cabinet was concerned about expanding the war against China, so the Japanese General Staff designated the line from Suzhou to Jiaxing as a restriction line that Japanese troops were not allowed to cross.
In this way, Nanjing was also excluded from the battle line.
However, Yanagawa Heisuke, the commander of the Tenth Army, and Hisao Tani, the commander of the Sixth Division, pursued Nanjing alone on November 15, behind the backs of the staff headquarters.
On November 20, Deputy Chief of Staff Jun Tada learned of the 10th Army's plot after receiving a message from the 10th Army, and was shocked.
At this time, the 6th Division had arrived in Huzhou, and the Sujia Line became a virtual reality.
Faced with the fait accompli, the Japanese General Staff Headquarters abolished the Sujia Line on the 24th.
On December 1, the Japanese High Command issued Mainland Order No. 8: ordering the Japanese army to capture Nanjing.
In Japan, since the beginning of the Russo-Japanese War, a trend has pervaded the army.
Those generals who dare to disobey orders and make their own decisions are often regarded as rare talents.
Historically, Hisao Tani's action finally received great recognition and promoted him to the cabinet.
But this time, the base camp was obviously unhappy.
The transfer of Hisao Tani on the battlefield proves that if you win, everyone will be happy.
If defeated And today, if the Sixth Division and the 114th Division collapse outside Nanjing, what will come will not be certainty, but a storm of a powerful standing division with one third of the personnel.
If the second new division is completely wiped out here, even if the 114th Division can escape after suffering huge losses, the result will definitely not be ideal.
Suematsu Shigeharu could already imagine his own end at this moment.
Although it was the two lunatics Yanagawa Heisuke and Hisao Tani who acted without authorization.
Even the shelling of the Sixth Division's camp had little to do with them, because the Sixth Division was also setting up defenses here.
But he is a member of the Tenth Army, the division commander of the 114th Division, and the commander of the 114th Division that attacked Nanjing with the Sixth Army.
The best outcome may be to be transferred back to base camp.
And the worst result will be the sinners of the country Shiro Inaba is dead, why didn't you stop the Chinese from attacking Suematsu Shigeharu?
You can imagine that those elders would definitely question him like this.
In the chaos, Suematsu Shigeharu's thoughts were very messy
