Broadway Building, Songhu Independent League Headquarters. Tianlai novels www. ⒉3txt. com
Although it was already past one in the morning, several of the regimental officers were still awake.
Du Junjie, director of the staff department, walked into the war room and posted the map of the situation between the enemy and ourselves that he had just drawn on the wall.
From the map, we can clearly see the deployment of Japanese troops. The blue arrow marked with the words "Seventh Division" draws a huge arc on the map, just like a sharp arrow piercing Baoshan, while the blue arrow marked with the words "Near Regiment" draws a huge arc on the map. The blue arrow in the shape of the Guards Corps split into three branches after crossing Taicang, pointing to Zhabei, the Western Concession and Longhua respectively!
After pasting up the map, Du Junjie pointed to the combat map and explained: "This morning, all personnel and materials in Qingpu County and Songjiang County have been evacuated. However, according to reliable intelligence, the Guards Division has not divided its troops to occupy Qingpu and Songjiang. , but only controls the traffic arteries from the urban area to Qingpu and Songjiang."
Wang Husheng said in a deep voice: "It seems that this old devil Seishiro Itagaki refuses to divide the troops."
"This is normal." Xu Rui said, "Among the many senior generals of the Japanese, Seishiro Itagaki is considered the most powerful. This old Japanese must know the meaning of a chopstick and a pair of chopsticks, and the team must know very well that once the troops are divided to garrison the surrounding areas, Each county will inevitably weaken its military strength, so it is reasonable not to divide the troops."
Wang Husheng sighed: "But in this way, it will be difficult to eliminate the Japs' vitality."
Xu Rui finally adopted Du Junjie's suggestion, specially selected elite soldiers and generals from the Songhu Independent Regiment, and formed more than a dozen small elite units. Each small unit was also equipped with a wolf fang. The only weapon of these small units was The mission is to go behind the enemy's back and disrupt their supply lines, while at the same time eliminating the enemy's active forces as much as possible.
However, now that the Guards divisions are not divided into troops, it will be difficult to eliminate the enemy's effective target.
Xu Rui said happily: "Everything has advantages and disadvantages. Itagaki Seishiro holds the entire Guards Division tightly in the palm of his hand. Although he can avoid being wiped out by us, his logistics supply line will inevitably be destroyed." Without protection, it would be easier to attack the enemy's logistics lines."
Wang Husheng nodded, as if it was true.
Du Junjie continued: "Also, after the Guards Division entered the western suburbs of the city, it did not launch a large-scale offensive. It only launched a few tentative attacks in several directions, and the number of troops invested was less than one. The infantry brigade was easily repelled by our defense forces."
Wang Husheng couldn't help but said: "Notify all battalions, don't be paralyzed by this."
"Don't be too nervous." Xu Rui said immediately, "The current situation is already obvious. The old devil Seishiro Itagaki is obviously prepared with both hands. On the one hand, he ordered the Guards Division to seize the western suburbs of Shanghai and cut off our 6 to retreat, and on the other hand, order the 7th Division to come out of Baoshan and threaten Wusong Fort."
After a pause, Xu Rui continued: "Once the Seventh Division succeeds and the shipwreck blockade at Wusongkou is cleared, once the Japanese navy enters the Huangpu River, the Guards Division will immediately attack from Zhabei, the West District of the Concession and Longhua Three different directions are attacking us at the same time, but before the 7th Division succeeds, the Guards Division will never act rashly, let alone launch a large-scale attack."
Wang Husheng said: "This means that the key lies in Baoshan County and Wusong Fort?"
"Yes!" Xu Rui nodded and said, "As long as the Second Battalion can survive ten days in Baoshan, the defenses of Wusong Fort will be completely formed. At that time, Wusongkou's shipwreck blockade can rest easy! And the Japanese's The Guards Division can no longer get support from the navy, so we have already won half the battle!"
Wang Husheng said worriedly: "But even so, the Guards Division still has more than 40,000 people!"
"It doesn't matter!" Xu Rui said, "Street fighting does not require just a large number of people. Besides, it is better to have more people. In addition to more than 9,000 regular troops, our Songhu Independent Regiment also has more than two million civilians. Two More than a million people, just a spit of spit from one person, drowned more than 40,000 little Japs in the Guards Division."
"You, the Japanese you are talking about are just like paper." Wang Husheng smiled, then stopped his smile and said, "But the Second Battalion is in Baoshan, and I don't know if it can survive ten days?"
As soon as Wang Husheng finished speaking, a bright light suddenly burst out outside the window.
Xu Rui and Wang Husheng subconsciously turned to look out the window. Immediately, they both looked shocked because the bright light was coming from the direction of Baoshan County! Could it be that... the little devil changed his temper and started playing night battles? Thinking of this, Xu Rui and Wang Husheng couldn't help but feel their hearts sinking.
(Dividing line)
Also alarmed by this bright light was Noboru Kunizaki, the commander of the 7th Division.
Adachi Kantoshi and the Japanese soldiers of the 1st and 3rd Infantry Battalions of the 25th Infantry Regiment went to bed early because they had to accumulate strength for the next day's attack, but in their sleep, they became Yue Zhensheng and the souls of more than 400 elite veterans from three companies returned to Japan Island in a misty manner.
However, Kunisaki Noboru, an old devil, had no need to accumulate energy, so he stayed up until early in the morning and was still discussing tomorrow's combat deployment with Suzuki Keiji, the chief of staff of the 7th Division. The two were discussing, but the result A bright light suddenly flashed outside the tent, followed by an explosion.
"Baga!" Kunizaki Noboru frowned immediately, "Is it another attack by a small group of Chinese troops?"
"It doesn't look like it!" Keiji Suzuki shook his head and said, "And the explosion came from the direction of Baoshan County."
"Baoshan?!" Kunizaki's face darkened, and he immediately opened the curtain and walked outside the tent, then raised his telescope and looked in the direction of Baoshan County. Unfortunately, the location of the 7th Division's division headquarters was not high enough. Because his vision was blocked, Noboru Kunizaki couldn't see clearly what was happening in the direction of Baoshan.
It was Suzuki Keiji who had the quick wit and pointed at the armored vehicle not far away and said: "Division commander, up there!"
After finishing speaking, Suzuki Keiji walked to the armored vehicle and bent down to serve as a stepping stone for Kunisaki Noboru. Kunisaki Noboru was not polite and stepped directly on Suzuki Keiji's back to the roof of the armored vehicle. There was unprotected flat land near Baoshan. Kunisaki Noboru was not polite. After climbing to the roof of the armored vehicle, we finally got a clear view of Baoshan.
But after seeing it clearly, Kunizaki Noboru's expression immediately darkened.
"Baga!" Kunizaki Noboru held up the telescope and said through gritted teeth, "It was the main force of the 25th Infantry Regiment that crossed the river during the day and was attacked at night. The Chinese Army's firepower was very fierce and artillery was dispatched! The Chinese Army He is really cunning, knowing that he is no match for the imperial army during the day, so he deliberately chooses to counterattack at night!"
"Counterattack?" Suzuki Keiji said solemnly, "Division Commander, is it possible that the Chinese Army is trying to restore the defense line?"
"Yes." Kunizaki nodded and said, "I was still wondering just now. Yesterday, the Chinese army fought so tenaciously on the east bank of the Sitang River. How come it has become so vulnerable today? , the 25th Infantry Regiment captured the position with just one attack, it turned out that they had such a wishful thinking!"
Suzuki Keiji said in a deep voice: "If the China Army does not fight head-on with the Imperial Army during the day, it can effectively preserve its effective strength, and then counterattack at night, restore its position, and avoid the naval gunfire of the Imperial Army and the Navy, so as to reduce the risk as much as possible. Casualties, this calculation is really extraordinary!"
"But we will never let them succeed!" After a pause, Kunizaki Noboru turned to Suzuki Keiji who was standing at his feet and shouted, "Suzuki-kun, please call the 26th Infantry Regiment immediately. Let the 26th Infantry Regiment rush to the south gate of Baoshan immediately to meet the 25th Infantry Regiment!"
"Hai!" Suzuki Keiji turned around.

Kunisaki Noboru still fantasized about joining the 25th Infantry Regiment, but it was no longer possible.
Just when Suzuki Keiji hurriedly called the 26th Infantry Regiment Wing Headquarters, the battle on the east bank of the Sitang River Bridge was almost over. The two who crossed the Sitang River to station on the east bank during the day were The infantry brigade, with more than 2,200 Japanese soldiers, was first killed by Yue Zhensheng's 400 elite soldiers.
By the time the Japanese were alarmed, there were less than 500 people left!
Immediately afterwards, Wu Liang led the main force of the third company to swarm out from the south gate of Baoshan, and cooperated with Yue Zhensheng's 400 elite soldiers to launch a general attack on the more than 400 Japanese who were stubbornly resisting. The light firepower of the third company was no worse than that of the Japanese. Due to calculation and unpreparedness, more than half of the remaining 400 Japanese who resisted were quickly wiped out.
As of now, there are less than fifty Japanese soldiers still clustered around Adachi Kantoshi, making their final struggle.
Adachi Kantoshi, an old devil, is also very lucky. In order to show his determination to fight to the death, his regiment is stationed near the front, so it is relatively far away from the swamp. Therefore, this old devil can avoid being wiped out by Yue Zhensheng's commando team. However, Even so, this old devil won't be able to survive for too long.
The scorching bullets poured out like raindrops from all directions, pulling out bright trajectories under the night. It looked really gorgeous, but for the devils inside, it was not so wonderful, because these bright and gorgeous ballistics Wherever the trajectory passed, flesh and blood flew everywhere and life withered.
"Baga, Baga Garu!" Adachi Kantoshi was so angry that he gritted his teeth and was helpless.
Until now, the old devil has not figured out what is going on? He clearly set up a large number of sentries around the station. The secret can be said to be one post every three steps and one sentry every five steps. Even a fly rarely comes in. How did these damn squadrons infiltrate?
But even so, Adachi Kantoshi still decided to fight to the death.
At that moment, Adachi Kantoshi raised his sword high, looked up to the sky and howled: "Order, all infantry squadrons advance forward, assault, all give me an assault, assault, Toji Kai..."
