Invincible from the sword

Chapter 323

Currently defending the Madang area is his No.20 Ninth Army and No.70 Fourth Army.

Although the No.70 Fourth Army is the absolute main force, Zhang Lei said that the vanguard of the Japanese army this time has one or two divisions.

If it's a division, that's okay.

But if there are two divisions, then his strength is not enough.

Just in case, Hu Zai ordered the No. 20 Fifth Army to be transferred from Jiujiang.

In this case, there will be three armies in Madang.

Coupled with Zhang Lei's Temporary Regiment in Taihu Lake and the No. 20 Army, it is entirely possible to annihilate the two divisions of the Japanese Army.

Chief of Staff Wu looked excited.

If one or two divisions of the Japanese army can be wiped out at the beginning, then this battle will be much easier to fight.

In the hands of Neiji Okamura, there are five divisions.

If he killed one or two divisions at once, it would directly hurt Neji Okamura.

If it is done well, it will directly make Okamura Ningji dare not attack.

As long as their First Corps can hold.

Then Wuhan cannot be lost.

At that time, the entire situation of the Anti-Japanese War will usher in a big change.

Even entering a strategic counter-offensive is not out of the question.

Zhang Lei, a young man, can always surprise him.

The five lines of defense in Taihu Lake were quickly established.

In order to be able to kill the Japanese army to the greatest extent from the beginning, Zhang Lei's temporary regiment was responsible for defending the first line of defense.

On the defensive line, Zhang Lei set up a long minefield.

In addition, there are many bunkers and firepower points.

All the tanks in the group were also used as artillery by Zhang Lei.

In order to prevent the Japanese bombing, Zhang Lei placed the tanks and the artillery battalion in the woods behind the line of defense.

At the same time, the plane in De'an has also mounted the bomb and is ready to take off for support at any time.

At the same time, his A team is not idle.

Zhang Lei dispatched all the A brigade, sneaked into Xuzhou, and destroyed the Japanese airport.

The Central China Expedition of the Japanese Army this time has three flying regiments.

There are almost three hundred planes.

With such a huge number of planes, it would be very difficult for the planes in his hands to deal with them in air combat.

The best way is to sneak into the airport and carry out large-scale destruction.

In order to succeed in one fell swoop, Zhang Lei sent a telegram to the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army in Shanxi, asking them to support fifty pilots there.

At that time, it will be under the command of Team A.

Now the flight school in Shanxi has trained three batches of pilots.

The total number exceeded 60 people.

And the flight school in Shanxi, the planes used for teaching are the planes of the Japanese army.

Therefore, the trained pilots are very familiar with Japanese aircraft.

You can get started directly.

Because the matter was so important, the fifty pilots were directly escorted by Li Yunlong's Second Temporary Regiment.

Starting from Shanxi, after arriving in Henan, the local Eighth Route Army is in charge.

Then go straight to Xuzhou all the way.

Meet with Team A in Xuzhou.

Five days later, the Hada detachment of the Japanese army officially began its offensive.

Integrate the Hada Detachment, which is composed of the No.18 Brigade and the Sixth Division of the Japanese Third Division.

The name of the commander of the No.18 Brigade of the Japanese Army is Bo Tiansheng.

The name is very visual.

The tradition of naming in island countries is to take whatever surname is born there.

wave field...

It was obviously born on a woman with relatively large waves.

It's all grown up.

Damn.

Botian's daddy is lucky enough.

According to the order of Ningji Okamura, the Hada detachment set out from Xuzhou and stationed in Hefei.

Then advance directly to Taihu Lake from Hefei.

As a brigade under the Third Division of the Japanese Army, Bo Tian has a very strong combat effectiveness.

So although he is only a brigade commander, he is in charge of the command this time.

Even the head of the Sixth Division will not work.

Okamura Ningji has no idea about the combat effectiveness of the current Sixth Division.

However, if you can think of it with your toes, it must be rubbish.

After all, it is a newly formed division.

Except for the officers, all the soldiers had just been recruited from the mainland of the island country.

Although they have received certain training, they are much worse than the original troops.

The head of the Sixth Division was also newly appointed.

The name is Panasonic.

It turned out to be the captain of the [-]th Division.

Now that he suddenly became the head of the division, Matsushita felt light and airy all over.

Although the sixth division is now designated as a third-level division, it is still a division.

Their [-]th Division is so talented.

Panasonic was ready to fight a good fight and show its face.

It turned out that Neiji Okamura actually integrated his sixth division into a detachment.

Let Hatano command.

idiot.

That Bo Tiansheng is not a good pen.

Relying on the fact that he belongs to the third division, he is defiant.

During the Battle of Changsha, they didn't look at their [-]th Division at all.

Now let him direct, Matsushita is very upset.

Now everyone is a major general of the island country, why should I listen to you?

At this time, Bo Tiansheng couldn't get mad at all.

He frowned and looked at the huge map, feeling a little nervous.

The task Okamura Ningji gave him was to test and attack Taihu Lake to his heart's content.

If the opponent's counterattack is not fierce, or even voluntarily gives way to Taihu Lake, then his Botian detachment must stop advancing immediately.

Because that is definitely Tiger Cub's conspiracy.

It is very likely that they are luring the enemy to go deep.

When fighting tiger cubs, one must always be vigilant.

Neiji Okamura has lost to Tiger Cub several times.

As for Anan, he was even killed by Tiger Cub.

Such a national army commander is very terrifying.

So Bo Tiansheng felt a little uneasy.

I always feel that there is a problem with Taihu Lake.

As a member of the third division, he had really fought Tiger Cubs.

The No.14 brigade of their third division was killed by Tiger Cub's troops in Dayun Mountain.

For safety's sake, Bo Tian decided, the troops advanced steadily.

Between alliances, no gaps are allowed.

The troops must be dense.

Only in this way, the end of the packet will not be split by the other party.

Moreover, Bo Tian played a trick and let the troops of the Sixth Division stand in front.

His No.18 brigade is in charge of the rear.

Matsushita, the new commander of the Japanese Sixth Division, is not stupid either.

The brain is very clear.

Bo Tian must have arranged this way, and it became popular at that time.

It's just that no matter how angry he is, he has to carry out the order.

Otherwise, he, the head of the division, is likely to be kicked out.

But being treated like a dog by Botian, Matsushita was very upset.

As soon as I went back and explained the situation, the integration of the Sixth Division immediately exploded.

What the hell!

Isn't this obviously bullying our new devils?

This cannot be tolerated.

Although the devils in the Sixth Division are all newcomers, they have a lot of temper.

After all, most of these devil recruits are from Tokyo.

He is very awesome in his bones.

I feel like I live in Tokyo.

It's all about royalty.

Your third division is all from Hokkaido.

There is no comparison with us.

So Matsushita and his division chief of staff made up their minds, no matter what Botian ordered, their Sixth Division would just push forward with a dull head.

Dangerous to have a fart.

Overhead is our plane, behind us is our artillery.

And our Sixth Division has eight tanks.

With such strength, wouldn't it be easy for the troops to fight the old man in Shancheng?

In Matsushita's view, both Okamura Ningji and Namita are too timid.

The troops of their island nation have always been invincible.

Even failures are small failures.

What a shit!
You can see that when he was in the [-]th Division, he fought a lot of battles.

For the first Changsha battle and the second Changsha battle, their [-]th Division participated in the whole process.

Isn't there nothing wrong?
Since I, Panasonic, are now the head of the Sixth Division, I will make the Sixth Division famous in the island country!
I, Panasonic, will be the next God of War in the island nation!
Neiji Okamura, Fengfu Yamashita, and Seishiro Itagaki will all be trampled under my feet.

Matsushita ordered his Sixth Division to advance at full speed.

Take Taihu Lake within two days.

The devils in the entire Sixth Division also looked excited.

These devil recruits were all fooled by the island country.

I feel that I can gain military merit by coming here, and then become an officer of the island country.

As long as you return to the island country, you can marry Bai Fumei and reach the pinnacle of your life.

Realize the myth of diaosi's counterattack.

So these devils are looking forward to the war.

In their view, as long as the gunfire of their island nation's troops rang out, the opponent's troops would retreat in fright.

It is not easy to occupy Taihu Lake.

This is mainly because the local newspapers in the island country have always promoted it in this way.

And this was indeed the case when the Japanese army invaded the three eastern provinces.

The Northeast Army has hundreds of thousands of troops.

He was ordered not to resist.

Except for those who had withdrawn, the other troops either surrendered or became prisoners.

Many were killed by the Japanese army.

Another part was reorganized into the Puppet Manchurian Army.

At that time, the Japanese army was almost as if no one was in the land.

In many cases, a county can be occupied without even firing a gun.

But it was then.

Now is now.

Just as the Hada detachment was advancing towards Taihu Lake, Okamura Ningji sat in the headquarters of the Japanese No. 11 Army with a gloomy face.

He deduced the entire battle plan of Shunliu Hata in his mind again, and he always felt that something was wrong.

According to Hata Junliu's battle plan.

His No.11 Army is the absolute main force in this attack on Wuhan.

King Nianyan's second army was used as a cover to contain the troops in the fifth theater.

Let Li Delin's troops in the Fifth Theater be unable to reinforce the Ninth Theater.

In this case, Neiji Okamura only needs to deal with Chen Cixiu's Ninth War Zone.

After all, the pincer offensive is not so easy to form.

The main reason is that it is not easy for Li De to fight in the fifth war zone.

The terrain there is almost entirely mountainous.

The Dabie Mountains run across there.

There are only two ways to enter Wuhan from there.

King Nianyan's troops must occupy Shangcheng and Xinyang.

This point, Li Delin is very clear.

So don't even think about it, Li Delin will definitely deploy a large number of troops in these two places.

It is not easy to defeat Li Delin.
