Invincible from the sword

Chapter 347
This time, so many Japanese troops were annihilated, and the number of Japanese weapons seized was astonishingly small.

For Zhang Lei, it was quite troublesome to deal with.

Now his temporary regiment is in the Wuhan area.

The captured Japanese weapons should be sent to Shanxi.

Unrealistic.

The old man Shancheng would not be the first to agree.

The New Fourth Army is relatively close.

But in the same way, the old man Shancheng still wouldn't agree.

The last time Zhang Lei's Temporary Regiment entered Burma to fight, before it went south, it gave all the equipment to the New Fourth Army.

Because of this incident, the old man Shancheng almost lost his face.

It is said that even his beloved quilt was dropped.

If the equipment is sent to the New Fourth Army again this time, the old man in Shancheng will probably blow his hair.

If that is the case, it will not be a good thing for the entire Eighth Route Army.

Now is the critical moment of the war of resistance, if the old man in Shancheng turns his spearhead and starts to deal with their Eighth Route Army.

It is difficult to say what will happen to the entire anti-Japanese situation.

After all, the old man in Shancheng can do anything.

In order to stabilize the situation, Zhang Lei felt that it is better not to stimulate him too much.

Things like equipment can be done quietly.

Zhang Lei even has a rough plan.

According to the plan, after this battle is over, he will go to the Lighthouse Country.

Command the troops of the lighthouse country to fight against the Japanese army.

This is going abroad to fight.

For him, Zhang Lei, this is a part-time job for the Lighthouse Country.

Since it is a part-time job, it cannot be done for nothing.

It is right to let the lighthouse country shed some blood.

Anyway, the lighthouse country is strong.

It is not a problem at all for the lighthouse country to get some equipment.

If possible, Zhang Lei also wants to build some weapons production lines in the Lighthouse Country.

Of course, at most it is the bullet production line and the rifle production line.

That's not bad.

Others, the lighthouse country will not agree.

At noon, the Japanese army on the west bank of the Yangtze River had been completely wiped out.

Zhang Lei and Commander Yang of the No. 20 Army jointly sent a telegram to Tiger Boy and Li Delin in the fifth war zone.

At the same time, the No.20 Ninth Army and No.70 Fourth Army on the east bank of the Yangtze River also formed an absolute advantage over the Japanese army there.

Those on the east bank of the Yangtze River are basically the Miyato detachment of the Japanese army.

The strength of the troops is about [-] troops.

Sounds like a lot.

But the overall combat effectiveness is average.

Ever since Hata, the head of the Japanese Third Division, was killed, and Miyato Shinichi became the head of the Japanese Third Division and was in charge of commanding the entire Miyato detachment, the combat effectiveness of this Japanese army has been relatively rubbish.

After all, when they were in Taihu Lake, this detachment was wiped out by Zhang Lei's temporary regiment, which wiped out almost 8000 people.

In the Miyato Detachment, the Japanese Sixth Division was only as strong as one regiment.

And all of them are recruits from the island nation.

The combat effectiveness is second or third rate.

Even the garrison divisions of the Japanese army are inferior.

The No.18 brigade of the Japanese army, although powerful in combat, suffered a lot in Taihu Lake.

Plus changing commanders.

The No.18 brigade of the Japanese army was a bit confused.

This time the entire Miyato detachment crossed the Yangtze River.

They were bombarded by planes, warships and ground artillery one after another.

Almost half of the more than 1 troops were lost.

The remaining Japanese troops, even the 74th Army, can almost wipe out this group of Japanese troops in one day.

With the addition of the 29th Army, it will be even easier to annihilate this Japanese army.

After receiving the telegram, Tiger Cub's spirits were lifted.

In his view, the annihilation of the Japanese Miyato Detachment and the No.20 Seventh Division is the key to this battle.

Annihilated more than 3 Japanese troops on both sides of the Taiwan Strait.

In this case, the No.11 Japanese Army is no longer able to launch an offensive.

Unless the Japanese Central China dispatched troops to Okamura Ningji to replenish his troops again.

In Huzai's view, even if the troops were replenished, this failure would be a huge blow to the Japanese dispatched troops in Central China.

Moreover, Zhang Lei also discussed with Tiger Boy that if he replenished his troops, he would be able to replenish Okamura Ningji with two divisions at most.

If there are more, the headquarters of the Central China Expeditionary Army of the Japanese army will be empty of troops.

Hata Shunroku will not let this happen.

This was the case in Wuhan at that time.

During the second Changsha battle, it was because Ananwei sent almost all of his troops to the Hunan battlefield, which caused the emptiness of Wuhan's troops.

This gave him a chance to be a tiger boy.

Hata Toshiro is not stupid.

He would never allow this to happen twice.

In this case, even if the troops are replenished, Okamura Ningji will only have four divisions in his hands.

The only ones capable of fighting are the two supplementary divisions.

The [-]th Division and the [-]th Division of the [-]th Division in Okamura's hands are very rubbish.

The [-]th Division of the Japanese Army was formed again.

Like the Sixth Division of the Japanese Army, all devil recruits.

This time, the Sixth Division of the Japanese Army was completely wiped out, largely because they were all recruits.

The fighting power is not strong.

As a result, when they were in Taihu Lake, more than half of them were wiped out by Zhang Lei's temporary regiment in half a day.

It is estimated that Neiji Okamura will not do this kind of head-giving.

The [-]th Division of the Japanese Army is an old opponent.

Those who are weak in combat power cannot be weaker.

During the Battle of Changsha, Neiji Okamura did not dare to put this division into the front line.

Can only serve as a supply unit in the back.

He knew very well in his heart that the [-]th Division would be killed within a day at most if it was sent to the battlefield.

So what Okamura can use at that time is the two second-tier divisions that are supplemented for him.

According to the normal establishment of the Japanese army, the combined strength of the two second-tier divisions is almost 3.

It sounds like a lot of people.

But don't forget that there are more than 50 people in the entire Ninth War Zone.

Ten to one.

Neiji Okamura is not stupid either.

He should be very clear in his heart that if he really wanted to send two more divisions over, he wouldn't even have any reinforcements if something went wrong.

The No.11 Japanese army was beaten and maimed in the hands of Okamura Ningji.

If he was beaten again this time, Neiji Okamura would have no choice but to cut seppuku.

Does he dare to take the risk?
Tiger Boy reckoned that Neiji Okamura might not have the guts.

Okamura, an old fox, is very smart.

When fighting, very calm.

If the situation is wrong, the troops will be withdrawn immediately.

Compared with other commanders of the Japanese army, Okamura is more pragmatic.

Not one-sided.

Therefore, Tiger Boy judged that this battle is over, and the Eastern Front Campaign in Wuhan should almost be over.

This is a major victory.

Because of his excitement, Tiger Cub was shining brightly.

The bigger and bigger the battle, the more and more he won.

This feeling is indeed a bit floating.

Tiger Boy immediately forwarded Zhang Lei's telegram to Chen Cixiu, commander of the Ninth War Zone.

And attached my own views and suggestions.

Tiger Boy feels that although the Eastern Front Campaign is likely to be over, he still cannot be careless.

What if Okamura doesn't play his cards according to common sense.

So we still have to be vigilant.

At the same time, it is recommended to reward Zhang Lei and the No.20 Army.

It is precisely because of Zhang Lei's eye-catching performance in Taihu Lake that they won such a victory this time.

In the headquarters of the Ninth War Zone, Chen Cixiu thought he was wrong.

The First Corps has actually wiped out the Miyato Detachment and the No.20 Seventh Division of the Japanese Army? ? ?
What the hell! ! !

Is this too fast?

Chen Cixiu's first reaction was, it's impossible.

He wondered if Tiger Cub was talking nonsense.

Chen Cixiu is an old man in the national army.

I am very used to the telegrams from many generals of the national army.

Many generals of the national army like to falsely report their military exploits when fighting.

Killing a devil can be said to wipe out a brigade of the Japanese army.

So his first feeling was that Tiger Cub made a false report.

But thinking about it again, I think it's impossible.

He knows exactly who Tiger Cub is.

Wars are never ambiguous.

And it is recognized as the god of war.

He fought against the Japanese army many times without a single defeat.

Such a person is a very cherished reputation.

In the matter of annihilating the Japanese army, there will be absolutely no lies.

Besides, the tiger cubs don't bother.

As far as Tiger Cub's current combat exploits are concerned, looking at the entire national army, he can count them on his fingers.

Moreover, Tiger Cub's status in the national army is very high.

Even the old man in Shancheng often has to call out Brother Boling.

He is a tiger boy, but he was the captain of Mr. Sun's guard back then.

His status is no lower than that of the old man in Shancheng.

Thinking of this, Chen Cixiu felt at ease immediately.

The Japanese army lost so many troops on the eastern front of Wuhan.

Then keep Wuhan, there is great hope!
Chen Cixiu immediately sent a telegram to the old man in Shancheng.

He gave a detailed report on the situation in his ninth war zone.

Of course, in the telegram, Chen Cixiu did not forget to add his own wise command.

After all, no one deserves too much credit.

mountain city.

Inside the old man's mansion.

The old man in Shancheng was eating.

He was in the right mood.

After all, during this period of time, he has made a lot of limelight in the world.

What excited him the most was that the arrogant old Qiu from Queen's Kingdom also sent him a telegram, saying that he would invite him to sit with him when he had time.

Although I know that Lao Qiu is just being polite.

But it also shows that his status as an old man in Shancheng is getting higher and higher.

Of course, the old man in Shancheng is not stupid.

What kind of medicine is sold in Lao Qiu's gourd, he knows very well in his heart.

Now in Southeast Asia, many territories of their queen kingdom are still occupied by the Japanese army.

The reason why Lao Qiu is so polite now is obviously to get the old man from Shancheng to help him.

Lao Qiu already knew about the invitation of Zhang Lei from the Lighthouse Kingdom.

As an old and cunning guy, Lao Qiu still has a good nose.

And immediately thought of how to fight for the interests of their queen country.

Lao Qiu is now the leader of the Queen's Kingdom.

The Queen's Kingdom is notoriously hardliner.

It was under Lao Qiu's insistence that the Queen Kingdom did not surrender to the Dazhong Kingdom.

The current Lao Qiu is a proper hero in the Queen's Kingdom.

But only Lao Qiu knew the bitterness in it.

Their Queen's Kingdom is not having a good time now.
