War of Resistance

Chapter 117 Sendai Division? !
"Aizhi-kun, you also graduated from Lu Shi. I want to hear your opinion on the Shanghai battlefield." Dizhou Libing turned his face and asked Aichi Shinichi next to him.

"Your Excellency, Division Chief, you have a humble job and lack of knowledge, so you dare not fight in front of the division commander." Ai Zhixin showed no hesitation on his face, and he didn't look like he was lying.

Dizhou Libing smiled, and the square beard under his nose looked a bit ferocious, and said: "Mr. Aichi is serious. Others don't know your talent, but if you want to hide it from me, the head of the division, it may not be too much. Are you too modest?"

"I'm sorry, Division Chief. It's my humble job's mistake, so I will express my opinion on this. If there is something wrong, please enlighten me." Ai Zhixin bowed his head and said, and then strode forward to take the Raised a baton.

I saw Aichi Xinyi pointing to the "Dachang" field on the map with his baton, and then said: "Our purpose before was to defeat the Chinese army in Jiangwan Town, and then echo with our army on the front line of Hongkou, and conquer them in one fell swoop." Lose the main force of the Chinese army in the urban area of ​​SH. But it is different now, the time has passed, and the Chinese army has sent a large number of reinforcements from the rear to fight forward. The main force of the Chinese army in Shanghai is probably no less than 30. It may not be easy for them.”

"Then according to Aichi-kun, our army is not capable of taking down these Chinese troops?" Dizhou Libing looked at Aichi Shinichi with piercing eyes.

Aichixin nodded, and said: "Yes, it is unrealistic for our army to eat up these hundreds of thousands of Chinese troops, but it is still possible to break through their defenses and win the battle in Shanghai. Please see the division commander. The location of Dachang, which is located on the north bank of the Suzhou River, has well-developed transportation routes, and is close to Jiading Nanxiang, must be a transit point for the Chinese army. If our army can take this location, it will be equivalent to cutting off the retreat route of the Chinese army to the southeast of Dachang. "

"But, Aizhi-kun, we haven't even broken through Jiangwan Town, how can we reach Dachang?" Dizhou Libing is not the kind of person who can't listen to the opinions of the people below. A person who is good at listening to other people's opinions.

"Your Excellency, Division Chief, the No. 11 Second Brigade, the main force of the No. 20 Division, has been attacking Jiangwan Town for more than a month. As far as I know, the No. 20 Second Brigade is extremely powerful. Its brigade commander Hei Yan Yisheng is also a good attacker, so I think that the enemy's casualties will only be greater than ours, and maybe they will be at the end of their battle." Ai Zhixin said with a serious face.

"Souga, after our division took over the main offensive mission of the No.11 division last week, we have launched high-intensity attacks against the Chinese army many times. I have to say that this Chinese army is extremely powerful. Those Russians in the Russian war were much stronger." Dizhou Libing sighed softly.

"Your Excellency, Division Commander, I suggest that we launch an all-out attack on the Chinese army immediately, and strive to defeat the enemy in front of us in one fell swoop!" Ai Zhixin stood at attention and lowered his head, his demeanor was very serious.

Dizhou Libing thought for a while, and finally made a decision: "Order, the 58th Regiment must gather, and at all costs, must break through Jiangwan Town before dark. In addition, I will deploy the artillery brigade directly under the division. Give it to them, and order each regiment to pull out their own artillery and temporarily strengthen the 58th regiment. You tell Ono that if he can't break through Jiangwan Town before dark, then let the captain of the Shinda regiment commit suicide to thank the emperor. ! Aichi-kun, this order is delivered by you personally!"

"Hay!" Ai Zhixin replied, he already knew the division head's determination, and the division head was determined to launch a general attack.

The No.13 Division was not the previous standing division. The Sendai Division, which was known as the strongest fighting force in the previous standing division (the previous No.13 Division was established in Sendai, so it was also called the Sendai Division) was already in 58. It was abolished in five years. At this time, the 65th Division was composed of the left-behind Second Division stationed in Sendai after the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, and then transferred to the 104th Regiment stationed in Takata and the 116th Regiment stationed in Aizuwakamatsu. , the [-]th Wing stationed in Sendai, and the [-]th Wing stationed in Shibata.

Although the combat power is definitely not weak in terms of composition, after all, it is composed of left-behind divisions rather than those standing divisions with strong combat effectiveness. It is definitely not as good as the standing divisions in terms of equipment and training.

It is precisely because the No.13 division was newly rebuilt temporarily, and its old background was the left-behind division, so there are not many troops directly under the division. After counting, there is only one artillery brigade that can handle it.

The Artillery Brigade looks very imposing and decent, but there is one thing to note: the standing divisions are all from the Artillery Regiment... Otherwise, if you don't know the goods, you will be afraid of comparing goods...

Dizhou Libing was able to suppress the only artillery brigade to the 58th Regiment, which shows that Dizhou Libing attached great importance to this attack.If it hadn't just been rebuilt, the military department had only given one brigade of artillery for the time being, otherwise Dizhou Libing would most likely invest in all the ace units such as the chariot squadron and the artillery wing.

I have to say that Dizhou Libing is very courageous, he employs people with no doubts, doubts with others, he has used this old Chinese saying to the extreme.

After the order of Dizhou Libing was issued, the 58th Regiment of the Japanese Army, which had not been on the battlefield since landing in Shanghai, began to assemble, including the artillery brigade that was not used very much.

"Order the artillery, let go of the fire, this time there is no need to save shells." A stern look flashed in Dizhou Libing's cold eyes.

"Hay!" The communications soldier responded.

……

Under the strict order of Dizhou Libing, the 58th Regiment finally went into battle. This is definitely the most violent attack Zhang Tianhai has encountered since this week, and it is no less violent than any previous one!
Poor Comrade Zhang Tianhai was trapped here by the overwhelming artillery fire as soon as he arrived at the headquarters of the Second Battalion of the [-]th Regiment.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!!!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!!!"

The overwhelming artillery fire covered the main position of Fudan University. This piece of land that had been ravaged by the devil's artillery fire countless times was now full of dust, and the broken walls and ruins seemed to be crumbling.

"Oops, the devil might launch a general attack this time!" Zhang Tianhai gritted his teeth and said to Cao Ming beside him.

Cao Ming is the second battalion commander of the [-]th Regiment. Like Zhang Tianhai, he was urgently promoted from the front line.

I saw a stern look flashed across Cao Ming's slightly simple and honest face, and he said with a bit of bitterness: "These little devils really know how to pick time, fuck, in two hours, they can directly enter here Hateful, we don’t know how many brothers are going to die here!”

As he said that, Cao Ming punched the wall next to him. It was obvious that Commander Cao Dayi had a bad temper.

……

PS: Two more will be sent.
