Anti-Japanese War: Starting from Yaobai

Chapter 390 It's on the verge of fire!
In order to be able to fight the Japanese invaders, Duan Wu also went all out.The officers and soldiers of the Independent Regiment and the 40th Division need to improve their morale, so why not the 112th Division and the former Jiangyin Fortress Defense Team?

They also need material rewards.

The Dragon Boat Festival didn’t have a lot of money. To the 112th Division, the garrison, and Liu Datou and others, each soldier was paid [-] yuan, and the officer was [-] yuan to [-] yuan.Scattered all the money in his hands.

Many Northeast soldiers were in tears because they hadn't paid their troops for at least half a year.

They were grateful for the Dragon Boat Festival and obeyed.

This is what the Dragon Boat Festival wants.What he wants are orders and prohibitions, and what he wants is momentum like a rainbow.Because only in this way, this group of soldiers dared to fight desperately with the little devils.

At the same time, the little devil will naturally not be idle.They are also boosting the morale of soldiers.

It's just that their method of boosting morale is different from that of the Dragon Boat Festival. The little devil uses burning corpses to boost his morale.

Smelling the smell of barbecue made the little devil scream.

The reason for this is rarely known, but it has been shown in both Yaobai and Snow Leopard.Devils have the habit of burning dead bodies.

After burning thousands of corpses in a row, the 53rd and 116th regiments of the Japanese army formed death squads and sent scouts to advance to the forefront of the Jiangyin fortress position.

Duanwu received a report from the sentinel and ordered all the troops to stand ready.

The 671st regiment and the 672nd regiment maintained the combat effectiveness of a battalion on the ground, beware of a sudden artillery attack by the Japanese army, which caused huge casualties to the two regiments.

At this moment, there was also a change in the Japanese artillery positions on the other side of the river, and military trucks were pulling in 150mm and 200mm heavy artillery.And at the same time, there were at least five Japanese warships on the river five kilometers away.

Above the sky, the sound of rumbling aircraft engines came, and immediately after that, the air defense alarm of Jiangyin Fortress also sounded.

When all the information was collected at the headquarters, Master Huo's brows had already condensed into a furrow.Because what he was most worried about still happened.

The Japanese army, navy and air force wanted to attack the Jiangyin Fortress in five directions: Zhengdong, Zhengnan, Zhengbei, Southeast, and Northeast.

"What about the commissioner?"

Master Huo really didn't have any good way to defend against the enemy. According to his idea, he could only use soldiers to block the water and cover it with soil.The enemy is attacking in an all-round way, and he is defending in an all-round way.

But the Dragon Boat Festival didn't think so. The only thing they got in exchange for an all-out attack and all-out defense was huge casualties.

The defense force of the entire Jiangyin Fortress is less than one and a half divisions.Relying on this little force to fight head-on with several Japanese regiments, the 112th Division was wiped out in less than a day.

Duan Wu drew a few lines with a pencil on the map and said: "Did you see it? Now the Japanese army is planning to attack our Jiangyin Fortress from five directions, southeast, true east, northeast, true north, and the air. .

Their means of attack include heavy artillery, aircraft, ships, and absolute superiority in military strength.

And what we have to do is to divide and disintegrate the enemy's fortifications. "

Mr. Huo asked: "Special commissioner? Then how should we divide and disintegrate?"

Duan Wu said: "First of all, it is the Japanese aircraft. This time the Japanese aircraft should cooperate with the army to fight. But it is a very huge threat to our position defense.

Their bombs can swoop down to bomb the ground, which is very accurate. "

Master Huo said: "Then we still use the method last time to destroy the Japanese plane first?"

Duan Wu said with a smile: "Impossible. It's daytime now, not only we can see the Japanese planes, but the Japanese planes can also see us, so we don't have an advantage in this road-air battle.

And when our anti-aircraft artillery fire is dealing with Japanese aircraft, we will encounter enemy artillery attacks due east and southeast.

In the northeast and north, the Japanese army has warships, and the artillery positions across the bank will also attack our air defense artillery.

Under multiple strikes, our anti-aircraft firepower will be quickly destroyed by the enemy. "

Speaking of this, Duan Wu drew a semicircle on the map with a pencil.At this moment, everyone including Master Huo, Zhao Beishan, Sun Shiyu, and Lao snorted all frowned.Because if the anti-aircraft artillery fire can't give full play to its advantages, then the Jiangyin Fortress can only be beaten passively, and it will be tortured to pieces by the Japanese air superiority.

"Commander, what should we do?"

Everyone was almost in unison.

Duan Wu said: "It's very simple. The Japanese army's aircraft have small fuel tanks and consume fuel quickly. And especially bombers. So they can't stay in the sky for long.

Therefore, our combat purpose is very simple, first attack the enemy's aircraft formation, and strive to severely damage the Japanese flight formation in the shortest possible time.

Regardless of how many planes he comes, as long as more than half of him is destroyed, we will win today. "

But at this time, Master Huo said suspiciously: "What about the Japanese artillery on the other side of the river, and the Japanese warships on the river? And the artillery of the army cannot be ignored."

Duan Wu said: "This is easy to handle. Let the main artillery of Xiaoshan and Xishan attack the artillery positions of the Japanese army first. Don't give them a chance to fire. As long as their artillery is in place and the shells are placed on the position, our artillery can fire. up.

The Japanese warships on the river were blocked by Dongshan's artillery and our speedboats were dispatched.By the way, our river defense force still has mines and speedboats, right?

Throwing mines into the water forced the Japanese army not to approach the Jiangyin Fortress for the time being.

Order Dongshan and Eshan Fort to pay close attention to the dynamics of the 116th and 53rd Wings of the Japanese Army.

Order the 671 regiment and the 672 regiment to strictly guard their positions.The 667th and 668th regiments were ordered to deploy two battalions to support the 671st and 672nd regiments at any time.

Order the anti-aircraft artillery, and after taking cover, be ready to fire at any time.

Order the original machine guns and anti-aircraft machine guns to support the artillery at any time.Tell them, don't rush to fire when you see a Japanese plane,
Anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft machine guns have extremely low killing distances, and they must wait until the Japanese army is ready to bomb before firing.

Alright, everyone get moving! "

"Yes!"

Master Huo took the order, and the other officers followed suit.

The soldiers of the 672 regiment and the 671 regiment are on standby.Anti-aircraft artillery spread out to seek cover for cover.

The speedboats of the Jiang Defense Force, carrying mines and torpedoes, were also coming from upstream.

The artillery of Eshan, Dongshan, Xiaoshan, Xishan and Huangshan are also preparing at the same time.

At the same time, the Japanese army was naturally not idle. Kitano 36 Lang had already known about the arrival of the Japanese aircraft, and he used the bombing of the Japanese aircraft as his primary combat support.

It is Kitano 36 Lang's confidence to have absolute air supremacy.Although the bombing of Jiangyin Fortress last night ended in a complete failure.But Kitano 36 Lang is not discouraged.

And he believes that his combat thinking is not wrong. The Empire of Japan has the largest number of aircraft with the best performance, and these aircraft are enough to crush his enemies.

And this time, he will launch a full-scale attack on the Jiangyin Fortress. Under the containment of the bombers of the Second Aviation Group, the Japanese artillery across the bank and the five warships of the Second Fleet on the river will simultaneously launch a fierce bombardment on the Jiangyin Fortress.

In the artillery attack, Kitano 36 Lang believes that this will at least disintegrate nearly half of the enemy's air defense force.

The Imperial Air Force will destroy all enemy artillery that can be seen on the ground at this time, creating the best offensive conditions for his 53rd and 116th Wings.And at that time, the small Jiangyin Fortress became his possession.

"Report Your Excellency, the 58th Squadron has arrived and is carrying ten 150mm howitzers. There are twelve 100mm cannons."

At this moment, another devil soldier brought good news to Kitano 36 Lang.After a night of rushing, the 58th Regiment of the Japanese Army had already arrived, more than two hours ahead of schedule.

Kitano 36 Lang laughed loudly: "Jiangyin Fortress, hahahaha! Dragon Boat Festival? Hahahaha!."
